Volume 6 Chapter 108 - Notebook (1/2)
The dim moonlight fell onto the leaves outside the window before entering the room, sprinkling on the bed.
Xu Yi had a six sided prismatic crystal in his hand as he looked at the moonlight with a look of doubt on his face.
“Hey, Still, what is this thing?” Still on the side asked in a curious voice.
“Elder Undine said that this was a very special Magic Crystal that contains magic that far surpasses normal Magic Crystals. I held it for a bit and found that the magic in this Magic Crystal is indeed very strong, it’s even stronger than the high concentration Magic Crystals that our company makes.” Xu Yi replied.
Still reached a finger out to tap this Magic Crystal. She sent her magic through this finger and found that the Magic Crystal was filled with magic, which was completely different from normal Magic Crystals.
“This thing is very strange, but it’s not worth thirty thousand gold coins, right?” Still had a confused look still, “It’s just a single Magic Crystal and no matter how much magic power it contains, what use is there? It might even be enough for you to fire off a Ninth Grade Spell.”
“If it was just to help me release a Ninth Grade Spell, I wouldn’t have spent thirty thousand gold coins to buy this from elder Undine.” Xu Yi shook his head, “I was just very curious as to why the magic contained within this Magic Crystal is so high. If I give it to Evita to study, perhaps we can imitate it which would greatly help develop the Magic Crystal refining technology of our company.”
“I knew that you were more greedy than me……” Still rolled her eyes at Xu Yi. She looked down at the things that Xu Yi had scattered on the bed and slightly knitted her brows, “You spent eight hundred and fifty thousand gold coins just to buy these things from elder Undine? Are these things really worth that price?”
“I…..Alright, actually I can’t determine the value of these things. However, like with this Magic Crystal in my hand, if we can successfully study its composition and imitate it, it would have a value of over eight hundred and fifty thousand gold coins. If we can’t do that, then it isn’t worth a single copper coin.”
“So you took this risk?” Still asked.
“Pretty much.” Xu Yi nodded, “Magic research was an uncertain thing and if there aren’t any results, no one can determine the value, right?”
Still slightly curled her lips, “You spent this much money to buy a bunch of things that you don’t know the use of. You might as well have used that money to buy more things related to the Magic Illusion Array from elder Undine.”
“I urge you to give up that idea.” Xu Yi looked at Still and helplessly spread his hands, “Elder Undine and I have discussed this before and she clearly stated that Illusion Magic is the unique magic of the elves, it isn’t easily passed to humans.”
“Not easily passed to humans?” Still raised a brow, “That means it’s still possible to pass to humans?”
“Yes. However, elder Undine said that because the Illusion Magic is the unique magic of the elves, no matter what is made with Illusion Magic, they must be involved. So do you understand what she means?”
“So it’s like this……” Still slowly let out a breath and after a while, she suddenly gave a bitter laugh, “I always thought that elder Undine was as graceful, noble, and gentle as the elven elders of the legends that I respected, but I never thought she would still care about benefits like this.”
“Nonsense, the elves still have to eat. As the elder of the Azshara Tribe, it’s natural that she considers the benefits of the entire tribe.” Xu Yi refuted.
“I understand, only…..it’s a little hard to accept.” Still shook her head and took a deep breath to calm herself down, “This means that elder Undine wants a few shares in our New Moon Chamber of Commerce to gain profits in the long term?”
“She didn’t say this, but I think that your understanding is correct.” Xu Yi gave a shrug.
“Un……this isn’t a problem at all. Actually, even if she didn’t mention it, I was already thinking about pulling her in.” Still said, “Anyway, when filming the Illusion Films, we need an elven magician to come along. If we give her some stocks, they will do their best to help.”
“It’s good that you can understand this.” Xu Yi gave a nod before lowering his head to look at the items on the bed, taking a thin book from among them.
“What is this?” Still asked in a curious voice.
There were Magic Crystals, strange magic items, and some accessories in the style of the elves, so they didn’t look cheap on the surface. Only this book had a common appearance and was even quite worn out, so it didn’t seem valuable at all.
“This is a brief history that the elders of the Azshara Tribe have written. Elder Undine said that there were many secrets of the elves written in here, as well as secrets to the history of the Sines Continent.” Xu Yi said.
Still immediately became disappointed.
She knew that Xu Yi was always interested in history, so normally when he didn’t have anything to do, he would read some books that were related to the history of the Sines Continent.
This notebook in his hand was first hand material from the Azshara Tribe’s elder, so it was very precious to Xu Yi, but it didn’t have any value to Still.
Seeing Xu Yi look through it with interest, Still shook her head and picked up a unique shaped Magic Lamp from beside the bed which let out a bright light.
Then she put the Magic Lamp beside Xu Yi before cleaning up the stuff on the bed. Once she was done, she said to Xu Yi, “Don’t read too late, sleep early. You still have to take the kids to the sea to play tomorrow.”
“Alright, you sleep first.”
