The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Although we don't know exactly what these magic crystals are, judging from Lan Qiqi's words, they should be an important resource that can be obtained during exploration of the other world.

Moran didn't rush to collect them. Instead, he picked out one magic crystal from each of the two piles and fed it to the Book of Cards as material. Then he tried to design and create the corresponding cards.

[Card Design: {Common Magic Crystal Card}]

[Estimated consumption: 100 Mana (one-time use)]

[Expected Appearance: Appearance Template 1]

[Expected Function: Grants one ordinary magic crystal upon use]

[Card Design: {Primal Magic Crystal Card}]

[Estimated consumption: 1 Mana permanent mana, 100 Mana one-time mana]

[Expected Appearance: Appearance Template 1]

[Expected Function: Upon use, you will receive one Primal Magic Crystal]

The design was a success!
Although the {Primal Magic Crystal Card} requires permanent magic power to craft, which I haven't encountered before, the fact that it was successfully designed means that it can be crafted as long as there is enough energy.

With her current permanent and one-time magic power, she can create hundreds of millions of primordial magic crystals, not to mention even more ordinary magic crystals.

With that in mind, Moran first made one of each type of card, materializing them into two magic crystals, one with a dull and mottled color, and the other with a pure and bright color, exactly the same as the one she had just taken away.

She placed the two magic crystals back into the pile of magic crystals on the table:

"Keep these and leave them for the other witches. I won't take them."

"Are you sure?" Lan Qiqi looked at her in surprise: "Magic crystals are a hard currency among explorers!"

“Confirmed.” Moran slightly mobilized his magic power.

Upon entering the explorer's camp, the previously suppressed magic was released. Within the explorer's camp, only the use of lethal magic is restricted.

Lan Qiqi sensed the magical fluctuations emanating from her and immediately bristled into a round, black ball of fur: "Fifth...fifth rank? How did you do that? Even for a witch, reaching fifth rank so soon after arriving at the Well of Heaven is just too outrageous!"

Many explorers with hundreds of years of experience exploring other worlds are not even at the fifth rank!

Moran wasn't surprised that she recognized him, and said with a smile, "I'm better at earning magic."

She is now more than halfway through the fifth rank of magic, with a total magic power of over 500 million. As for the one-time magic power stored in the Book of Cards, that is an astronomical figure.

Since I'm already so wealthy, I don't need to take away any of the resources that the clan allocates to new witch explorers.

Lan Qiqi thought of something and this time she didn't try to persuade her anymore. She decisively collected all the magic crystals on the table, not missing a single one.

The witch Moran... she also contributed to the fifth-tier magic power level!

All the salary she'd earned in recent years had gone to her. Lan Qiqi tried her best to maintain her composure and good service attitude: "Do you have any other questions?"

Moran shook her head.

She has copied dozens of books into the Book of Witches, and has a thick list of books she is eager to read.

She believed that these books would provide answers to both questions she had considered and those she hadn't.

"The newcomer guidance is now complete!" Lan Qiqi jumped off the table and walked to the wall behind Moran.

There are two doors there, one large and one small.

The smaller door has a cat's paw pattern, while the larger door has a witch's hat pattern. "Press the hat to open the door and go out. If you have any problems within a year, you can come back to me."

"Thank you! Here, take the things on the table." Moran left a card on the table.

As soon as Moran disappeared outside the door, Lan Qiqi instantly transformed into a black shadow and appeared on the table, pawing at the cards with great delight:
"Dawn Society Identity Level Upgrade Card! And the highest level one at that!"

Moran only checked Lan Qiqi's identity while making cards after sensing that Lan Qiqi was a member of the Dawn Society.

Lan Qiqi, the cat with double ears, has been a member of the Dawn Society for eleven years and is currently a Level 3 Night Observer. Moran estimates that she should be quite satisfied with this gift.

Lady Tracy's pet is also one of the witches' own people, so she deserves the title of a guiding mentor.

After Moran went outside, he arrived at a spacious hall, which was filled with doors, much like the one in the camp.

In the center of the hall, there is a life-sized book sculpture and a spiral staircase leading upwards.

She took the "Collection of Books from Another World's Archives" and found the map inside.

Looking at the map, she realized that the book sculpture was the catalog search desk that Lan Qiqi had mentioned.

The book she's holding is the one that's being updated there.

However, this is the latest version of the book, and it does not need to be updated yet.

The spiral staircase next to it leads to other floors and is automatic, but it is slow and not frequently used.

Both the witch and the database members will choose these portals in the lobby to go directly to the floor they want to go to.

Witches or other alien explorers with the ability to fly occasionally fly up and down the stairs, but only non-members who cannot fly will ride the slow spiral staircase.

Moran consulted the map, found the portal with the sign for Witch No. 1's rest area, and went inside.

The data in the Otherworld Database cannot be taken out of the database; it can only be read within the database. Only witches can copy the data into the Witch's Book and take it away.

Therefore, the database has many reading areas and rest areas.

The reading area has tables, chairs, and sofas, while the rest area consists of individual lounges.

Both areas have food and beverage counters offering drinks and food.

For the alien race, apart from the tables and chairs in the reading area which are free to use, everything else is a paid facility.

However, for witches, everything else is free except for food and drink, which require payment.

Moran found an empty lounge and went inside.

The lounge area is about the same size as the original individual tents, with comfortable tables and chairs, bright magic lamps, and even a small bed, offering more privacy than the public reading area.

After she sat down, she picked up "The Well of the Sky: Essential Reading List" to read.

It lists thousands of books, along with detailed introductions and reasons for recommendation.

After writing everything down, Moran tried to search for the location of these books in the "Collection of Books from Another World Archive".

At this point, what you find is not only the location of the saved items, but also the price list for each document.

The prices for witch readers, regular readers, junior members, intermediate members, and senior members are all different.

The price of common materials is usually measured in "ordinary magic crystals," while the price of rare materials is even measured in "original magic crystals." (End of Chapter)
