The Emerald Tower

Chapter 353 The Battle for Reputation III

"Do you think this is fair? My rule - both parties must pay items of equal value. I do have some gains in it. Although it is not a priceless treasure, it is not a rare thing. At least, those magic inscriptions seem to me No less than any high-level secret technique! As for restoring my reputation and apologizing? An apology is a must, and it doesn’t have to be counted in it, and restoring my reputation is also a must, after all, it’s what you said! "

Dean stood where he was and said calmly. ,

He vetoed the bet proposed by the other party.

After all, those are all painless things!

The apology was purely verbal, who could know what was going on in his heart?

And restore your reputation?

What's more, it's nonsense. A large part of such rumors are lies that can be easily debunked, they are simply untenable, and as time goes by, they will eventually become flat.

Even, Dean can seek the help of Long Lang, and in the same way, in a very short period of time, he can regain his due reputation.

It didn't take Dean much work.

Of course, some Kimpton essentials that's for sure too.

However, the value of these Kimptons obviously cannot be equal to the 'things' obtained in the fog before.

After all, just one piece of 'God's Blood' is a priceless treasure to many people—an item that can break through the shackles of the gold rank, and any strong gold rank will be fascinated.

Especially for a gold powerhouse like King Xiti who values ​​his own strength, if he is exchanged, even if he wants to become the prince of Xiti. I'm afraid there is no problem.

"The other party should not know the existence of 'God's Blood'. Otherwise, he would not have raised such a bet rashly. He should have noticed that there is a huge magic circle here, but he has not entered the core; after being After being blocked by the surrounding magic circle... I saw the tall wall engraved with magic inscriptions, and when the other party heard me say the words 'magic inscriptions', they had an expression of surprise and surprise on their faces—it was absolutely unmistakable !"

Based on the other party's words and deeds, Dean easily came up with a guess.

At the same time, Dean glanced at the Countess indiscriminately.

Dean was equally certain that the Countess should have found something too - or rather.

I found something about the changes of these wizards, and then became dissatisfied.

After all, after spending a lot of money, the countess could not get loyal service in the true sense. It would be unbearable for any high-ranking person.

Therefore, the other party needs to 'teach' these wizards a lesson.

And his appearance was just right.

"A 'lesson' that loses face but doesn't hurt life?"

Dean thought silently in his heart.

Of course. Dean is more aware that this is not just a 'lesson' for the wizards in front of him. Similarly, it was still a 'test' for him.

Grand Duke Emerald's trust in him was obvious.

The presence of the Grand Duke Swordsman is enough to prove everything.

And the talent he showed is enough to show that Grand Duke Jade's vision is correct.

However, this does not mean that everyone thinks so.

At least, among the original subordinates of Grand Duke Jade, there should be many people who are not convinced by him.

This is not a factional struggle, nor is it a malicious suppression.

It's just because of pure unconvinced heart.

Thinking that you can achieve the same level with such teachings-this is the inferiority of human beings, and Dean has already understood it.

Moreover, there are no shortage of these people anywhere.

However, this Countess is a bit special.

As a veteran silver powerhouse, the other party also has the identity of the first teacher of the Emerald Grand Duke, coupled with his own prominent status and power, there is no need to do this at all.

But the other party showed such a 'test'.

Naturally, from the perspective of Grand Duke Emerald, to see whether he is "worth it" such an investment.

As for the rumors about his record?

Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, this is the truth.

"However, I'm afraid you didn't expect that I will start a competition to make potions here, right?"

Out of the corner of Dean's eyes, he clearly saw the countess frowning slightly.

Obviously, the other party cared more about the strength of a knight than the medicine ability of a wizard or pharmacist.

However, at this moment, the other party is obviously unable to stop——

"Then what do you mean?"

The wizard consultant looked at Dean and asked.

"Equivalent items! Moreover, the need is what I can use - please don't use some meditation methods and construction diagrams of spell models to fill the number. As I have already said, I have not learned spells, and I probably will not after that." Time to learn; therefore, what I need is a more immediate object!"

Dean replied with a smile.

Some of them were, of course, lies, but Dean didn't change his face.

"A more direct item?"

The wizard consultant was a little puzzled.

"Magic items, spell scrolls—of equal value!"

Dean said with a smile unchanged.

The complexions of the wizards, including the wizard consultant, changed.

They looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally, their gazes fell on the wizard advisor—obviously, as the leader and the most powerful among the wizards present, the wizard advisor was trusted.

"Magic items and spell scrolls are not easy to manufacture, we can't..."

The wizard advisor looked for excuses.

In fact, this is not an excuse.

The manufacture of magic items and spell scrolls is very difficult, especially the high-level boutique ones, which require extremely expensive raw materials and countless hours.

Even if it is low-level, it is also a lot of hard work.

Therefore, wizards rarely sell their own magic items and spell scrolls, unless they are pre-ordered, or simply some items in the magic workshop.

Of course, more importantly. The wizard advisor could not be identified. What exactly is Dean's equivalent value -- is it high. Still low.

Or, to be more precise, how many valuable items did Dean get from it!

The wizard consultant is no stranger to the magic circle shrouded in mist, even, he is familiar with it - he has entered it three times.

It's just that there are toxins, illusions, and fog inside. It really made him helpless.

Even with sufficient potions and magic equipment, he was still a third of the way from the real core the most recently.

However, such a journey was enough for him to see clearly the mountain-like wall engraved with magical inscriptions.

Although it was just a quick glance, the mysterious magic inscriptions on it were deeply engraved in his mind, which he could not forget for a long time.

And, through some of the research above. His stagnant strength has a hint of progress - a new spell slot. It all seems to be forming.

Therefore, for there, the wizard consultant can be said to be yearning day and night.

After all, once he becomes a great wizard, he doesn't need to rely on the support of the nobles. He only needs to return to the island of secret magic to receive the highest treatment.

Therefore, his attention is here all the time.

Waiting for the time for the fog to appear again.

And this time, he was a little reluctant to follow the countess to pick up another emerald nobleman, but due to his own service principles, he had to come.

However, unexpectedly, the mist appeared again.

This made him ecstatic.

Unfortunately, before he could really enter, a sudden explosion destroyed everything.

Looking at the big crater that appeared after the explosion, the wizard consultant was ashamed.

But when Dean appeared, he saw a turning point.

Reminiscent of Dean's 'name', the wizard advisor indulged his disciple in a peculiar way. Otherwise, as long as he gave the order in advance, his disciple would never have said such a thing.

And everything was as he expected.

The other party took the bait.

The consecutive victories in the Emerald City made the opponent's head a little hot and confused.

A guy from a knight background wants to compete with a wizard in medicine. Although he is only a young man who has just obtained a formal wizard, he is definitely not comparable to a silver knight.

If it is a comparison of strength, it is a world of difference.

However, in the case of pharmaceuticals, it must be reversed!

And now, the only concern of the wizard advisor is how many of those magical inscriptions Dean has mastered.

However, when Dean wrote more than a dozen consecutive magic inscriptions on the ground, the only worry of the wizard consultant disappeared.

The continuous, uninterrupted, and error-free magic inscriptions are enough to show that Dean has gained a lot.

"My memory has always been good—although I can't really remember it, I can still remember some things in shorthand... I remember about one-third of the walls full of magical inscriptions. —you can estimate the value of it!"

Dean looked at the other party's changing expression again and again, and said lightly.

"Two upper ring spell scrolls!"

The wizard advisor replied.

"Stop joking, at least four, plus a boutique-level magic item!"

Dean shook his head and proposed again.

"This... alright!"

The wizard consultant originally wanted to reprimand Dean for being greedy, but the next moment he thought of the situation of a sure win and no loss, he naturally gave up the reprimand that came to his lips.

Since the victory is certain, why not appear generous?

"Then... let's start preparing!"

The wizard consultant looked at his disciples, and at the same time, the assistants around him began to sort out some pharmaceutical tools-for wizards, some simple alchemy equipment would naturally be carried with them.

"Does Dean know about potions?"

The countess who was standing aside asked this question.

"Know better, I have seen alchemy instruments in his room, but compared with wizards..."

The Grand Duke's swordsman had a worried expression on his face.

The first update of ps~(to be continued...)
