Chapter 2 You Actually Played Me for Two Years
Aaron opened the system mall with excitement.
The panel of the mall is relatively simple, with a total of three rows, and each row has five grids of goods, divided into magic, material, and item categories.
The level of the goods is uncertain, some are high and some are low. Each magic point can refresh one grid, one row, or all of them, depending on your luck.
When the mall was opened for the first time, there was a magic that could bring the dead back to life in the five grids of magic goods.
At that time, Aaron felt that his luck had exploded, the goddess of luck had mercy on him, God had special care, and the ancestral tomb of the Gaius family was filled with smoke.
But after reading the detailed introduction, he realized that he had thought too much.
There are three conditions for casting spells. The first is that the magic power reaches the level of the great magician, that is, the magic power is more than 10,000 points.
The second is that the magic power will decrease by 20% every time it is used, and it needs to be re-cultivated.
The third is that the time of death of the resurrected object cannot exceed 20 years, and a certain amount of body tissue of the deceased is required.
Except for the third condition that he can accept, the remaining two are more stringent than the other.
According to the system's classification of magician levels, they are magician apprentice (magic power 1-100), primary magician (magic power 100-500),
intermediate magician (magic power 500-1000), senior magician (magic power 1000-3000), wizard (magic power 3000-5000), magician (magic power 5000-10000), great magician (magic power 10000-30000), holy magician (magic power 30000-50000), and the legendary god of magic.
Great magician! Or the peak of magician, there must be such in this magic world, but they are definitely rare.
But even the great magician is probably unwilling to bear the cost of casting spells.
With Aaron's current three-digit magic power, it will probably take at least ten or eight years to learn this magic, not to mention that he has no one he wants to revive at all, so it's useless to learn it.
The most important thing is that the price of this magic is not ordinary expensive, 30,000 magic points.
For Aaron, it may take a long time to save up for it, which he can't accept anyway.
So, when he saw this magic, Aaron immediately used a magic point obtained by signing in that day to refresh it, and then he had his first consumption target.
Brain Occlumency; Price: 1,000 magic points; (After learning it, the host can perfectly resist the spiritual penetration of the outside world, and no one can explore the host's memory.)
"System, I want to buy this." Aaron said in his heart.
"Deduct 1,000 magic points, congratulations to the host for learning brain occlusion, and there are currently a few magic points left."
The next moment, Aaron felt that his mind had all the memories of brain occlusion, which were deeply reflected in his mind like a knife and an axe.
At this moment, Aaron's heart was filled with lofty ambitions. He dared to say that even if Dumbledore used divine thoughts on him personally, he could not spy on his memory, except for what he wanted him to see.
Just when he wanted to shut down the system, the familiar voice sounded in his mind again.
"Congratulations to the host for making his first purchase in the system mall.
If you spend one magic point, you will be rewarded with a bottle of special potion 'Drop of the Moon', which can remove any negative spells;
If you spend ten magic points, you will be rewarded with a bottle of special potion 'Resurrection Potion', which can revive any creature that dies within an hour;
If you spend one hundred magic points, you will be rewarded with the wandless casting skill, which can deal with emergencies without a wand;
If you spend one thousand magic points, you will be rewarded with a magical egg, which can hatch a magical creature that is 100% loyal to the host, and it will become the host's most trustworthy companion in the future."
Aaron blinked blankly and patted his cheek. He seriously doubted whether he had heard it wrong.
Then he took out a bottle of magenta potion, a bottle of emerald green potion and a pet egg that was 30 cm long and 20 cm wide from the system space.
The eggshell was pure white with cloud-like patterns on it, giving people a sense of holiness and nobility.
Uh...
After a brief moment of daze, there was endless grief and indignation, "Fuck! Damn system, you actually played me for two years.
Why didn't you tell me such important information earlier?"
"First, the host didn't ask.
Second, is there any difference between giving these rewards early and late?"
"..." Aaron looked at the two bottles of magic potion in his hand and it seemed that there was no difference. He didn't need to remove the curse, and he didn't need to revive anyone.
Although the two bottles of magic potion were extremely precious, they were really useless to him now.
Wait, isn't there an egg?
"System, if you had told me earlier, I might have hatched this egg by now.
I wouldn't be as lonely as I am now, without a friend to talk to, you have to compensate me for this!" Aaron said a little unhappy.
Although the family was well-dressed and well-fed, and carefree, it was too lonely.
Except for his parents and Genes, everyone looked at him with awe, which was inevitable due to the difference in status.
It was not that there were no guests coming to the house, but these so-called guests were too focused on complicated etiquette, and they were all as arrogant as two hundred and fifty-eight thousand.
Even if they brought children of the same age as him, they could only play for half a day.
But the next meeting was a few months or even half a year later, so Aaron had no friends until now.
Before the age of eight, he had his parents to accompany him and could feel the love of his father and mother, but since they lived in a world of two, they rarely came back.
Part of the reason why Aaron went to Diagon Alley to open a store was that there was enough popularity there, which allowed him to experience what it felt like to be lively. There was no difference in status every day, and he could talk to customers on an equal footing. It was also quite interesting to learn some interesting anecdotes in the magical world.
"Host, you are making trouble for no reason!" The disdainful voice of the system sounded in Aaron's mind.
"How am I being unreasonable? Do you know how I've been living these past two years?"
"Then please tell this system, what is the reward for this magical animal egg?"
"Isn't it just one thousand...eh?"
"Now I understand. Even if this system told you earlier, this egg would not fall into your hands in advance.
So the host didn't suffer any loss at all.
If it's not unreasonable to ask for compensation in this case, what else can it be?"
Aaron:......
Damn! It seems to be true.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of knocking on the door came, "Master, Yobi brought your dinner."
Aaron immediately put the two bottles of potion and the pet egg back into the system space, and said lightly: "Come in! The door is not locked."
The house elf walked in nervously, with a tray floating in the air behind him.
A portion of fruit, a steak and a bowl of corn soup flew out of the tray and landed on Aaron's table.
"Okay, you go out first!"
"Yes, Master."
After Yobi left, Aaron couldn't wait to take out the white egg and looked at it expectantly. As for the exquisite dinner, he selectively ignored it.
"System, what race is this egg? How to hatch it?"
"Does the host need to spend one magic point for identification?"
Aaron silently looked at his only remaining magic point, and couldn't help but complain in his heart, "You really don't leave me any!
Identification."
[Race: Dragon]
[Incubation method: at least three hours of sun exposure every day, and the rest of the time is free to arrange. It will hatch in about seven days. 】
"That's it, that's all?
You should at least tell me which branch of dragons it belongs to and what its magic power level is!"
The system was silent for a moment and replied, "This dragon egg has no branches in the current magic world. Before it hatches, it belongs to the magician apprentice level. After it hatches, it will be upgraded to a higher level and will evolve as its magic power level increases.
The combat power of each stage will be improved to varying degrees, and the size of the body can be freely controlled."
After hearing the introduction, Aaron became more interested in the dragon egg in his hand.
This may be a unique dragon in this world. Just looking at the patterns on the surface of the eggshell, you can tell that its appearance must be good. Being able to grow bigger and smaller means that it can be kept by your side.
As for whether the Ministry of Magic will investigate because of its various magical powers, Aaron has never worried about this.
Do you really think that the thousands of years of inheritance of the Gaius family is just a decoration? Just find a reason to prevaricate and show the obedience of the pet. I believe that the magic world will give the Gaius family this face.
"Not bad, really good, this egg is very satisfying to me." Aaron nodded with satisfaction, holding the dragon egg and couldn't let it go.
"Should I give it a name in advance?" Aaron was a little entangled. He didn't know whether this unborn dragon was male or female, nor did he know what it looked like, what color it was, cute or mighty. It always felt a bit hasty to give it a name rashly.
Thinking of this, Aaron shook his head violently. Isn't it just seven days? I can wait.
At this time, a ray of moonlight shone into Aaron's bedroom from the window. He looked at the white dragon egg in his hand, "System, can eight hours of moonlight every day reduce the hatching time?"
"Please don't ask such an idiotic question, the system will think that the IQ has been lowered."
"Tsk, it's not that smart anyway." Aaron complained, and then gently held the dragon egg and placed it in the moonlight, "There is no sun for the time being, so you can make do with it and absorb some of the essence of the moon to replenish it."
After that, Aaron began to enjoy his dinner.
He didn't notice that the white dragon egg swayed slightly under the bright moonlight.
