Chapter 198: Heart of Iron
Hyp Herb-like magic plants are collectively referred to as "grass" in Flora's mouth.
"Yes, is there any problem?" Gothe replied.
"Why is it so troublesome?"
"Where is the trouble?"
"Why do you humans have to summarize so many rules?"
"Because of this, we can get the habits of magic plants, know what conditions are most suitable for them to grow, even let them upgrade, know when they will grow up, and know what they need at the moment." Gothe explained patiently.
“Can’t you feel this directly?”
"Of course not." Gothe reacted suddenly and looked at Flora with wide eyes, "Can you?!"
"Yes, Lady Flora can know what they need as long as she touches them."
This is not a joke. Gothe expressed shock.
"Can Lady Flora know the needs of any plant by touching it?" Gothe asked solemnly.
"What are you talking about?"
"You are not smart."
Gao De pursed his lips and chose to endure it.
He bent down, placed the small cup in his hand on the ground, and pushed it in front of Flora.
Flora looked down at the "small cup" and then looked up at Gothe:
"What is this?"
!!" She immediately raised her head and looked at Gothe again.
"Do you like it, Flora-sama?"
"Yes."
“This is all for you, and there will be more in the future.”
“Thank you.”
The next day.
Misty Moon, 21st.
Gaode got up early.
At least when he got up, Flora was still sleeping soundly.
Today, he still has a lot to do.
Gaode first came to the trading area of the college.
·Compared to other areas and facilities of the college, the shops in the trading area have opened their doors early.
Hence, he successfully bought the yeast and seasonal fruits needed to brew fruit drinks.
However, Gaode did not leave immediately, but came to the central area of the trading area.
The shops on the edge of the college trading area sell ordinary daily necessities or food, while the shops in the central area sell mage items.
Gaode found a magic store and walked in.
"Hello, what do you need?" The person who received Gaode was a young mage wearing a standard student robe. He was obviously a "work-study" student.
"One portion each of Songhai bird eggs, Abeshian longfin fish scales, Omra goat unicorn powder, half a cup of sungrass powder, and 15 drops of ice juice."
This is the raw material required for the [Environment Tolerance] magic potion.
"There are also 1 gu of swift grass powder, 1 gu of black sour fruit juice, and 8 gu of maid clam meat." Gaode also reported the main and auxiliary materials required for the [language proficiency] and [shield] spell potions respectively.
After listening to Gaode announcing the names of the required ingredients, the young mage immediately started rummaging through the medicine cabinet against the wall skillfully and neatly.
The three first-level spells selected by Gao De are the most common spells used by first-level mages. Correspondingly, the corresponding raw materials are also the most complete in stock.
"A first-order pine and seabird egg is worth 14 gold and 2 silver, a first-level Omla goat unicorn powder is worth 13 gold and 16 silver, and a half-gu of sun grass powder is 3 gold."
The young mage weighed out the corresponding weight of materials according to Gaode's needs while giving Gaode a quotation.
A spell potion usually consists of 2 main ingredients and 3-5 auxiliary ingredients.
The main materials are raw materials corresponding to the corresponding level. The main materials for a first-level spell are generally first-level potion materials, and the auxiliary materials are sub-first-level potion materials.
The main and auxiliary materials combined, the total price is almost in the range of 40 gold coins, sometimes more, sometimes less.
"As for the maid's clams, there is not enough stock in the store. The next shipment is expected to be in seven days." The young mage opened the medicine cabinet where the maid's clams were stored, took a look, and then apologized.
The only raw material needed by Gaode is the maid clam meat.
"This thing is not easy to preserve, and it is usually harvested freshly, so the academy specially set aside a piece of water to breed maid clams." He said.
Gaode nodded to express his understanding.
There is no rush, just come back in seven days.
"But for this thing, in the name of learning [Language Proficiency] and needing to prepare spells and potions, I suggest you go directly to the Potions Department to apply for collecting them by yourself. You will only be charged 5 gold for a maid clam. Of course, you are only allowed to collect one. If you buy it in the store, you will need 12 gold." The young mage suddenly reminded Gao De.
Gothe was startled, and then asked in surprise: "Do you know me?"
"My name is Us, a member of the Mutual Aid Association, Gao De, and I have long admired my name." The young mage smiled politely and introduced himself.
He also saw the news about Gaode being promoted to a first-level mage last night.
For such a talented mage, if there is an opportunity to make friends and release goodwill, he will definitely not miss it.
This is the benefit of having a good reputation.
In addition to causing unnecessary trouble, more often than not, it actually brings some unexpected benefits and goodwill.
"Most mages find it troublesome and are not willing to go to the water to collect clams. They would rather spend the extra 7 gold, but you are different. This is completely effortless for you." Wus boasted without leaving any trace.
Gaode's reputation as an "expert clam collector" is also well-known in the academy.
"I understand, thank you." Gothe took the other potion materials, took out his wallet at the same time, and paid 106 gold and 12 silver.
His heart was indeed moved.
Gaode returned to Building 30, District 1, with the purchased supplies.
First, he brewed the fruit without leakage, then went to the workshop to prepare the [Environment Endurance] and [Shield] spells and potions.
To say it is a blend is an exaggeration. In fact, it is just a pot of random stew.
Just put all the ingredients together according to their weight, simmer them over fire, and boil them into juice. There is no detail or operation in the whole process.
After all, the purpose of this process of brewing is just to make it easier to eat
After busying himself with all this, Gothe went upstairs and took a look, and found that Flora was still sleeping soundly.
He shook his head and did not disturb her.
This is the little ancestor.
The second floor of the library.
Gaode rushed to the opening door.
Fortunately, although the old mage guarding the second floor was quite old, he did not have the old habit of "coming in late and leaving early".
"You're here so early? Have you decided which practice method to choose?" The old mage had just sat down and made tea when he saw Gothe appear from around the corner. He was also very surprised.
Gaode nodded.
"Which one do you want to choose?" The old mage was also a little curious about the result of Gothe going back to think about the result of the night. He asked while picking up the cup.
"Aoki Immortality Sutra." Gaode had a clear goal and said decisively.
"Pfft!" The tea that the old mage had just taken into his mouth spurted out.
Gothe looked at the old mage with an innocent face.
"I should have told you about the shortcomings of the Green Wood Sutra yesterday, right?" The old mage put down the tea cup, frowned at Gaode, and couldn't help but advise: "Don't be fooled by its appearance." "I have thought about it," Gao De expressed his longing, "I have loved planting flowers and trees since I was a child. It is rare that there is a practice that can match my hobby. Even if it has some flaws, I am fascinated by it."
After Gao De stated his reasons, the old mage still looked embarrassed.
After Gaode left yesterday, he also found out the origin of Gaode.
This is a mage seed no matter how you look at it.
It would be a pity no matter how you think about it if you choose such a flawed practice method.
"I've already thought about it." Gothe said again, insisting on his decision.
The old mage shook his head and sighed.
Gaode has made it clear that his heart is iron-clad and cannot be persuaded by just a few words.
He is not a virtuous mentor or relative, so no matter how much he keeps urging his teacher to go out without saying anything, it is all for nothing.
"Bring me the identity plate." He said.
Gaode handed over his identity plate.
After using the alchemy machine to get 25 points of Gaode, the old mage took Gaode to a bookcase that was locked with a secret method and labeled [Aoki Immortality Sutra].
After opening it, there were hundreds of copies of the "Aoki Immortality Sutra" neatly arranged inside.
"Look, at the beginning, five hundred copies of each practice method were copied, and the [Green Wood Sutra of Immortality] is the most left." The old mage pointed to the "Green Wood Sutra of Immortality" in the bookcase.
He is making a last-ditch attempt to get Gothe to change his mind.
But Gaode remained unmoved.
The old mage had no choice but to take out a book and handed it to Gothe.
