Chapter 50 Unknown Scroll

Chapter 50 Unknown Scroll

Putting down the letter that Master Seda had written long ago but had not yet had time to send, and would never send, Gao De was speechless for a long time.

To the apprentices in the medicine garden, Master Seda is the absolute "big villain", a villain and a perpetrator of violence.

 But for Master Seda, he, like Gothe, is just a "victim" struggling to reunite with his wife and children.

 But now, to Master Seda's wife and children, Gothe has become the evil person.

 After realizing this, Gaode's emotions became extremely complicated.

 Even though he knew clearly that if he had not resisted at that time, he would be the one who died now.

 This is a situation in which only one person can survive.

Gaode's resistance is completely justified and no one can fault it at all.

 But after reading Master Seda's home letter, Gothe still couldn't bear it, and he still felt guilty for the woman who had been waiting for her husband to come home for more than ten years in Bremen, and he had clearly never met her.

 This is something that runs deep in the bones and will not be easily erased just by traveling through time.

 Gothe, who had been silent for a long time, finally let out a long breath.

   "It's right that I kill Master Seda, and it's right that I can't bear it. There is no conflict between the two."

  He is no longer entangled.

  Decisively picked up the last thing taken out of the wooden box.

 That mysterious scroll that resembles a spell scroll.

 The scroll is made of fine animal skin paper, and its edges are luxuriously and carefully edged with gold leaf.

 The two sections of the scroll are inlaid with two exquisite silver scroll buckles, engraved with complex patterns.

 There is a slender ribbon tied between the buckles. The color of the ribbon is a deep violet, with flowing patterns carefully embroidered with gold thread.

 Gaode untied the ribbon and unfolded the scroll, and a faint fragrance hit his face.

 It is the aroma brought by the preservative made of special herbs and magic materials, which makes the ink on the scroll remain as vivid as ever after passing through time.

  It's just the words written on the scroll, which Gaode didn't recognize.

  "It should be some kind of magic text."

Gothe looked at it carefully and made a judgment.

 In the lower right corner of these magic words, there is an exquisite seal printed on it.

 The seal is circular, and the main pattern is a bird with spread wings, standing on an open book.

  The feathers of birds and the faintly visible magic symbols on the book patterns. Every detail is lifelike, as if ready to jump out and become reality at any time.

 And above the bird is a tiny diamond pattern.

  "I don't know." Gothe looked at it for a while and determined that he did not know the origin of this stamp.

“It is written in magic words, but it is not a spell scroll.” He had checked it at the first time and found that the magic words on the scroll did not contain magic power and were just used as ordinary words.

  "The scroll itself is so exquisite, and it looks like it was expensive to make. Could it be some kind of high-end magic potion recipe?" Gothe guessed: "Or is it some kind of document? After all, it has a special seal."

  After studying it carefully for a while, Gothe, who found nothing, finally stopped this waste of time.

  At this point, all the legacies left by Master Seda have been accounted for:

 An apprentice manual.

 Two books on how to practice practice.

 Five spell recipes.

 Two complete prescriptions for level 0 potions and one incomplete prescription for level 1 potions.

 Twenty-one letters home.

  A scroll with an unknown purpose

  And a full 50 Sheen gold coins.

 The harvest was so rich that even Gothe wanted to do somersaults on the spot.

  After shaking his fist hard and venting his excitement, Gothe opened his cabinet and hid three potion prescriptions inside.

 This is a treasure. It is not as difficult to get rid of as a spell formula. When necessary, you can sell it directly in exchange for a large sum of money.

  Gold coins should be placed in a dark compartment in the bedroom, so that you can sleep peacefully at night.

There is no need to pay so much attention to the apprentice manual, practice methods and twenty-one letters from home. Gao De put them back in the wooden box.

 As for the scroll whose purpose was unknown, Gothe thought about it and felt that it should be paid more attention to, and finally hid it deep in the cabinet.

 After dropping the last drop of green spider venom into the medicine bottle in his hand, the constantly rolling liquid gradually calmed down.

 Humblingly visible, a gray-green magical light flashed through the liquid.

 The medicine works!

  "I got 2 gold coins!" Gaode skillfully packed the primary spider poison potion just prepared in the large medicine bottle.

 Although he had just received a huge sum of 50 gold coins, it did not make him bloated enough to waste a daily set of primary spider poison potion preparations.

 One is a steady flow of water, the other is a sudden windfall, a one-shot deal.

  Gaode can still tell the difference between these.

 Wind money does not come every day.

 If you regard windfall as normal income, or even deliberately pursue windfall and waste your original "career", something will happen sooner or later.

  What's more, 50 gold coins may seem like a lot, but if it is not continuously produced, with the medicine garden's increasing expenditure, this so-called "huge sum of money" will be squandered in just half a year.

   "From now on, you can eat unlimited amounts of meat to replenish your body, and the staple food can be changed from rye bread to wheat bread."

   "Of course, only I can be so luxurious, after all, this is my private income."

Gao De is not worried that his behavior of eating alone will cause dissatisfaction among other apprentices in the medicine garden.

 In fact, he has always had this power, but Gothe couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, so he kept eating and drinking with the apprentices.

   “However, now that we have plenty of money, the food for the other apprentices in the medicine garden can also be improved to a higher level, and they no longer need to dig around like before.”

   Well, one pound of meat for seven people is enough for everyone every two days. One pound of meat is 7 coppers, which is an extra expenditure of 9 silvers a month. It is acceptable." Gaode thought about it in his mind and decided.

 It has only been a month, but I have led everyone to live a life of eating meat every other day.

 Thinking of this, Gaode was still a little pleased.

“Don’t forget Pierre’s reminder to prepare more food in the medicine garden. If something happens, whether you run away directly or use it as a backup food, you will be prepared.”

  Today’s work is over.

 After Gothe stretched himself, he couldn't wait to take out one of the five spell formulas placed on the table.

 【Flame Arrow】(Energy Department, Level 0).

 "Okay, that's you."

 Gothe was quite impressed with the flaming arrows.

 This is the spell that Master Seda uses to kill the wolf rats, the earth-line creatures that invade the medicine garden. It is also the spell that he uses to "seek death."

 The power is self-evident.

 At least at the level of magic, Gothe believes that in terms of lethality, [Flame Arrow] is definitely ranked first, better than his [Acid Splash].

  After all, it is said in "First Introduction to Spells": Among all the schools of spells, the evocation spells are the most destructive.
