Chapter 445 Three Invitation Letters
Gothe stayed in Phoenix for another two days, not only to deal with some miscellaneous and trivial government affairs, but also to allow time for the tribe to help him prepare things to bring back to the north.
It is worth mentioning that the day before he was about to leave the north, he successfully constructed the spell model of [Light Armor].
At this point, the remaining three second-level spells have been mastered, and the number of second-level spells in the spell library has come to 6:
[Beast Perception] (Prophecy, second level):
You touch a willing beast. During the duration of the spell, you can use actions to switch your vision and hearing to the senses of the subject beast, and then until you use actions to restore normal perception.
When you sense the surroundings through the senses of a beast, you will also gain the special senses of the creature itself, but you will regard the situation around the body as the same as being blinded and deafened at the same time.
【Light Armor】(Transformation, Level 2):
The armor you are wearing no longer slows you down.
Hound Tracking] (Change Department, 2nd Ring):
You gain special sensing of smells, including the ability to track smells, awareness involving smells, and survival sensing for special smells.
But note that in the hound tracking state, when faced with extraordinary abilities involving smell, such as [Stinky Cloud Technique],
You will suffer more serious negative effects.
Three of them are auxiliary spells, or functional spells.
With [Frozen Blade+] and [North Wind], Gaode is enough for the output for the time being, so his need for attack spells is not particularly urgent.
This mentality allows him to maintain an objective attitude towards functional spells.
Although these three spells cannot bring any improvement in strength, they have considerable bonuses to various actions, and he is still very satisfied.
Before leaving, Gothe also dug out all the spell formulas collected in the Zhenbing tribe.
There is no one copy of the fourth-level spell formula, but there are two copies of the third-level spell formula, and there are five copies of the second-level spell formula.
These are the magic formulas left behind by adventurers or merchants who entered the North from the outside world for various reasons during the long history.
They are all general-purpose spell formulas, and most of the main and auxiliary materials required for spells and potions are found outside and are not produced in the North.
For the ice wizards in the north, these spell recipes are like waste paper.
But for Gothe, who can now freely travel between the Plantagenet Dynasty and the Northern Territory, these spell formulas still have a certain value.
The materials required for the spell potion do require him to spend time and effort to collect them, but he must know that the market price of the second-level spell formula is as high as 120 gold.
These five spell formulas are equivalent to saving Gaode 600 gold.
Yes, the price of a spell recipe, excluding potions, is a "sky-high price" of more than 100 gold.
Coupled with magic potions, the money spent to learn and master a second-level spell will reach a terrifying 300 gold.
Fortunately, the lifespan of a second-level mage is long enough, up to 225 years old.
With this long lifespan, even if a second-level mage can save 300 gold in two years, after a hundred years, theoretically, it will be enough to buy 50 second-level spells.
Of course, it’s just a theory.
Because most spell recipes are difficult to buy even if you have money.
The higher the level of the spell formula, the stricter the official control.
At the first level, you can easily buy a dozen general first-level spell formulas at the Dornish Official Spell Association.
But when it comes to the second level, the number of second-level spell recipes that the Dornish Official Mage Association will put out for public sale has dropped to less than ten.
This is still in a big city like Dorne.
In those more remote and barren areas, there may only be two or three second-level spell formulas for sale in the official Mage Association.
So for most civilian mages, not to mention resources, even for spell formulas, even if the mages have outstanding talents, in the end they often cannot escape the end of joining a mage organization, working hard for others, or even giving up their lives.
You can earn resources in the wild by yourself. What can you do if others don’t sell you spell recipes?
Knowledge monopoly is always the best way for the upper class to hinder the advancement of the lower class.
With emotion in his heart, Gothe silently put away the five spell formulas collected by the Zhenbing tribe and informed Sunaifa that he was planning to leave.
虽然在苏奈法面前，高德对于那位神秘强大的工匠大师作以「摆烂」态度，
好似根本没当一回事。
But both Sunaifa and himself knew very well that to a large extent this was just pretending to be relaxed.
Not to mention the presence of the master craftsman in person, but even if he casually sent a few more mages similar to Master Yang to come forward,
It was already a pressure that the Zhenbing tribe could not bear.
It's just that the situation is here, Yuga Tesheela has been planted and cannot move. At the moment, all Goode and the Zhenbing tribe can do is pretend that they don't know about this and keep silent about development.
It is also because of this that Gothe decided to return to the Plantagenet Dynasty so quickly. In the Plantagenet Dynasty, he can obtain many mage resources that he needs through the Sea Sentinel that are temporarily unavailable in the North.
Otherwise, he is planning to stay in the North for a while longer, at least until the "Secret of the Ice" reaches the second-level mage apprentice level before leaving.
After receiving the news, Sunaifah came quickly and brought supplies prepared for Gothe to bring him back to the Plantagenet Dynasty.
The high-level blood food that feeds Tuanzi is already considered a regular object, in addition to some extraordinary materials.
There is also a box of ice jade sycamore leaves.
When the ice jade sycamore is upgraded, a total of 360 fifth-level ice jade sycamore leaves will drop.
This should be the most valuable treasure among the Zhenbing tribe at the moment.
Last time, in order to purchase Harland Shipyard, Gothe took fifty pieces.
In addition, during this year, the ice wizards in the tribe used a small part, and there are still more than 250 ice jade sycamore leaves left.
Sunaifa directly took out fifty more ice jade sycamore leaves and gave them to Gaode.
But this is something that Gaode did not require.
"Be prepared, so as not to be unable to spend a lot of money when you need it." Faced with Gaode's questioning eyes, Sunaifa gave his own explanation.
She curled her lips and said, "The majestic King of the North, if you are so embarrassed outside, wouldn't the North be ashamed of you?"
At this time, she was not like the Zhenbing War Mother, but like a worried housekeeper.
"Okay." Gothe didn't waste any time and simply put away the box with the ice jade sycamore leaves.
What Sunaifa said is not impossible.
The huge sum of money gained from the last sale of Ice Jade Wutong Leaf, the current balance is less than 3,000 gold, to be more precise, it is 2,657 gold.
It looks like a lot, but he is now a second-level mage, and his expenses are also rising with the tide. It is hard to say that he is rich.
It's just that he didn't think about it for the time being, but Sunaifa did.
Otherwise we can say that she is careful!
After packing up his things and saying goodbye to Flora, Gothe rode the snow wolf and set off for Valar Bay.
Due to the events of the past few days, Sunaifa became very concerned about the safety of Gaode's trip, so he was directly escorted by Deputy Director Lan Wen of the Public Security Bureau during his trip.
Gothe has no objection. He is not a person who belittles himself. He knows how much impact he will have on Phoenix if something happens to him.
Compared with this, mobilizing a deputy director as a "bodyguard" is nothing to make a fuss about or show off.
After arriving at Valar Bay, Gothe first checked the alien eggs that he had fostered on the trunk of Yugathila tree to absorb the energy of the astral realm.
Because of Gao De's instructions, Yuga Tshila generously helped the alien raccoon absorb the energy of the astral realm.
With its help, less than a month has passed, and the blue color representing the water element on the surface of this alien raccoon egg has been reduced by one-tenth, and transformed into the colorful colors representing the energy of the astral realm.
Gothe put his hand lightly on the alien egg. After a month of training with the magic mark method, his connection with the alien egg has reached a very close state.
He quickly received the weak emotions from the young life in the alien egg, expressing that he was in very good condition, absorbing energy, and waiting to "exit the warehouse".
Gothe was relieved, and he was still looking forward to the "Astral Alien Fox" that had never appeared before.
Subsequently, he confirmed the growth progress of Yugathila.
After all, when he came back this time, he brought a lot of tree species and demonic tree species, including even a fourth-level demonic tree species.
Under Flora's skillful hands, these tree species, including the fourth-level spiritual spring nectar tree species, have sprouted and been successfully planted.
· In addition to the development of Permafrost during this period, although it has only been less than a month, Flora Forest has already changed a lot compared to when I first came back.
This is visible to the naked eye, and it is even more so according to Yugathila's feedback.
【Yugathila】
Level: Second-level magic plant (3248/5568 months)
Growth gain coefficient: 8.12
With the growth of this new wave of new tree species, the progress of universal promotion has reached more than half. There is only 2320 months of growth progress, that is, 193 years, before universal promotion to third-level magic plants.
Another big improvement is the growth gain coefficient, which has increased sharply from 4.04 when he first returned to the north to 8.12, which has more than doubled.
The most effective way to improve the growth progress of Yugathira is to plant new tree species. The higher the level, the better, which is equivalent to unlocking a new illustrated book bonus.
And if you want to increase the growth gain coefficient, you need to eat the comprehensive quality of all the tree species in Flora Forest.
Such a big improvement is due to the germination of the fourth-level spiritual spring nectar tree species, and the development of permafrost tree species.
This is a second-level magic tree species, and it has significantly improved the quality of the overall tree species in Flora Forest.
The growth gain coefficient is 8.12, that is, with the passage of a normal natural day, Yogathila's growth progress can be increased by 8.12 natural days.
Calculated in this way, even if Flora Forest stops expanding and developing, it will only take 23 years for Yugatra Sheila to be promoted to a third-level magic plant on her own.
The future is promising.
I just don’t know what the upper limit of Yugathila is?
Magical plants are somewhat similar to earth-line creatures. They are like fifth-level earth-line creatures. From childhood to adulthood, they naturally move up from level zero to level five. Unlike human mages, there is a threshold and bottleneck.
However, after reaching the fifth level, it will become very difficult to improve again, even more difficult than a human mage to upgrade.
Yugatsheela is currently in the state of "infancy" to "adult". When the growth progress is reached, it will be a matter of course to advance.
This is considered the tasting period.
But once you enter the "adult" stage, you will have worries.
However, with the miraculous abilities that Yogatha has shown in the past, I dare not say anything else. He still has the confidence and virtue of a sixth-level guarantee, so this trouble has nothing to do with him for the time being.
Without any further delay, Gothe activated the astral teleportation and headed for the Plantagenet Dynasty.
I don’t know if it’s because I have adapted or because my mage level has improved.
In short, Gothe no longer felt any discomfort during this astral teleportation, and appeared very naturally in the bedroom on the second floor of the Wal-Mart Magic Materials Store.
He is already very familiar with the process of switching between the two places.
The first is the time difference. The time difference between Dorne and Varar Bay is about three hours, and Varar Bay is three hours behind Dorne.
Gothe chose to start the astral teleportation in the afternoon, which happened to be noon on Dorne's side.
He went downstairs and put the extraordinary materials brought from the north onto the shelves in the store on the first floor.
Because he is already a second-level mage, the level of extraordinary materials brought by Gothe this time has also been slightly improved, and is no longer as conservative as before.
After finishing it roughly and casually, he left the Wal-Mart magic material store and rushed back to the Sea Sentinel dormitory.
The first thing Gaode did after arriving at the dormitory was to open the mailbox at the door and check it.
With the slight ouch of opening and closing the mailbox, as expected, it disappeared for nearly a month, and there were three letters lying in the mailbox.
The thick parchment has a faint scent of wax seal, and is all gilded.
Gothe opened the letters one by one, and two of them were invitations to banquets from Dornish nobles.
One letter was from the Burns family. Gothe was quite familiar with him. The Corporal Zuo Wen who tried to "recruit" him was a descendant of this Burns family.
Hmm.... Now he is already a sergeant. I wonder if Corporal Zuo Wen has been promoted to sergeant?
The words in the letter were sincere, and it was a banquet specially held to invite Gaode to the banquet.
Gaode looked at the signing date at the end of the invitation letter. It was the 20th of Huayan Month, the Thirteenth Battle... .Well, this banquet in Bie'er has already ended, and the day lilies have become cold.
He shook his head and glanced at another invitation letter.
This invitation letter is extraordinary. It comes from Golden Feather Castle, the residence of Marquis Drake, the lord of Dorne.
But it is not a special banquet, but Golden Feather Castle will hold a banquet every day after Pentecost.
Send invitations to the nobles in the city and some outstanding young priests, inviting them to the banquet.
Gaode, who happened to be returning to the north during Pentecost, missed this invitation.
This kind of invitation is not one-to-one, so it doesn’t matter whether you go or not.
It’s just because this is a rare place for communication. Although this invitation is not mandatory, it is an excellent opportunity to make friends with powerful people and expand their connections. Therefore, the legal officials who receive the invitation letter will be proud of themselves and happily attend the meeting.
Had Gaode received this invitation letter earlier, there is a chance that he would have attended the banquet. Now that he missed it, there is nothing he can do about it.
The last letter was from Auckland City, and it was just delivered yesterday.
The content is also very simple. The specific thing is that the disaster in Auckland has come to an end for the time being. Count Roland is going to take time to hold a ceremony to confer the title of "Honorary Priest of Auckland" to Gaode, and he sincerely invites Gaode to attend the ceremony.
