I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 91 91. Two Letters
The two letters were brought to Cloya.

One was an ordinary letter with a large package attached - it was just delivered by the Baron's men.

The surface of the other letter was shrouded in a magical glow, and contained the emblems of the Mage Association and the mage himself.

The letter was sent by a Level 2 Magical Beast, Wind-riding Pigeon. It was being treated to delicious food and drinks by Robert, and would not be sent away until Kloya replied.

Look at these two letters.

Croix hesitated for a moment, but still took out the Baron's letter and read it carefully.

The letter was not long. It mainly stated that he had promised to deliver the materials to Croya, and hoped that Croya could complete the production as soon as possible and let his men take away the finished product.

Enclosed with the letter was a very old-fashioned book and a lot of materials.

The book looked quite old. The edges and corners were smoothed, but it felt very smooth. The surface was engraved with the emblem of the Holy See and two sentences:

"From the light."

“The miracle happened.”

Well, these two sentences have a very religious flavor.

He was more concerned about the material of this thing. He weighed it in his hand and found it was very heavy.

"It's made of iron. If it hits someone, it will probably break their head and bleed, right?"

After Cloya put it down, he flipped it open.

The pages of the book have turned slightly yellow, but the words and pictures are still clearly visible.

He didn't look at it carefully at first, but just flipped through it roughly.

This book of bright miracles does not have a table of contents, which means that he needs to find out what is in it by himself.

After a quick look, Kloya's expression was filled with joy but also a little complexity.

"This is really a great gift," he sighed.

The book records at least hundreds of magical potions and instruments that emanate from divine power.

From the production of the most basic holy water to the advanced instruments of light, it roughly covers all the items needed by priests, paladins, and holy knights from level one to level four.

There is so much knowledge in it. If it were sold, it would probably be worth tens of thousands of magic crystals - this is the alchemy of the Holy See, and very little of it has been leaked.

It is worthy of being passed down by the pioneer knights.

Kloya even doubted whether the somewhat discordant things such as the "Holy Silver Crossbow" here would be issued by the current Holy See to its alchemists?

That thing...seems like it's only used by the Inquisition.

It is said that anyone hit by a crossbow made of silver flames that can destroy evil will be burned into a pile of ashes in struggle and pain. This crossbow is only used to punish sinners and pagans.

“There are a lot of things, but there’s really not much that can be done.”

He came to this conclusion after reading it.

There are too many raw materials that need to be supplied by the Holy See, and all that can be produced now are really only low-level holy water instruments and scrolls.

It is probably difficult to buy materials above level three.

What was available during the pioneering period has now become banned, and the raw materials will of course be controlled and sealed within the Vatican.

"Forget it, let's make these first." He didn't think much about it.

He can’t make anything more advanced either, so we’ll talk about it later.

According to what Baron Kemoye mentioned at the time, he quickly wrote down the three different formulas of the Holy Water of Prayer, the Wings of Prayer, and the Scroll of Light Link, and studied them carefully.

As for the first two types, you can tell from their names that they belong to the same category - the Holy Water of Prayer for Light is holy water with healing and exorcism effects, and can be controlled by the person wearing the Holy Water Wings artifact.

Not only can it be summoned for defense and attack, but it can also act as a priest or paladin for healing.

Although it is called holy water, it is essentially a semi-elemental creation that requires the unique "light summoning technique" to be produced.

As for the Scroll of Light Link, this thing is even more exaggerated.

It turned out to be a scroll that stored the holy arts of light. Anyone who had signed a contract through the scroll could use the holy arts in it anywhere by linking the holy seal.

I have to say that these three alchemical creations are really good choices.

It can heal, defend, attack, explore, and even take the team into consideration. Exploring ruins is simply perfect.

Three such comprehensive alchemical creations are of course extremely difficult to make.

First, you need to pray for holy water, which must be extremely pure, and then summon an elemental creature called "holy firefly". Finally, you need to use several special methods to refine it before it can be considered a successful production.

The wings of prayer light require the use of holy white iron and the wings of the sky-feathered bird, and then extremely complex sacred magic patterns must be engraved on them before they are considered complete.

The final Light Link Contract is even more important.

It needs to first make the original clay tablet of the Light Link, inscribe the Light spell on it, then enchant it through eight methods, and finally make a clay tablet of rubbings...

The process is extremely complicated, and includes some operations with unclear religious implications.

To be honest, the time and energy required for these three things are far more than refining holy white iron once.

If a wizard has never used divine power, he will even have to start by learning how to control the divine power.

“It’s really troublesome.”

He had no intention of backing off or giving up. No matter how difficult the task was, as long as he started doing it, he would succeed.

Making these never-before-seen alchemical creations is also a rare experience for him, and it will definitely make his future path smoother.

The mage is supposed to try various things.

Not to mention the creation of divine power, in the future he will also try elements and demons...

What's more, he already possesses divine power in his body. This alone is enough to crush those mages who complete their work by controlling the divine power.

Control and ownership are completely different concepts. "Let's start making it tomorrow. Finish reading this letter first."

After making this decision, he temporarily put aside the book "Miracle of Light" and the pile of materials and picked up another letter.

Compared to the thick letter from the Baron, the one from the royal capital was obviously much simpler, and it felt like there was only a single piece of letter paper inside.

"Does he disagree?"

If the other party disagrees, I can only buy other varieties of sunflowers. I don't know if different varieties of sunflowers can still have this effect.

Croa frowned and opened the letter.

It turns out that what was placed inside was... a thin wafer.

It feels thicker than a piece of parchment paper.

Magic patterns of different colors flickered on the surface of the chip, interweaving with each other and connecting into a emblem.

"The emblem of the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce?"

Croa was very familiar with this emblem. The deep blue holy spring formed by countless lines was exactly the emblem of the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce.

"Could it be the deposit card of Shengquan Chamber of Commerce?"

He seemed to have heard of this kind of card before. It was a voucher that allowed one to deposit items at the Shengquan Chamber of Commerce at a certain price. Once one got this card, one could take it out from the Shengquan Chamber of Commerce anywhere.

Generally speaking, senior mages will choose this method.

Because in this medieval context, it was too troublesome to send a letter, and you also had to worry about it being lost on the way.

In comparison, summoning a monster to send the deposit card over is much more convenient and quick.

"Let me see what's deposited."

Kloya took out his VIP card and summoned the Holy Spring, then threw the crystal card into it. After waiting for about half a minute, two things spurted out.

A familiar box for storing seeds, and a thick letter.

Seeing the box, Chloe breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the other party is still willing to trade with me, that's good.

"And that letter is..."

He opened the letter thoughtfully and read it.

The results were once again unexpected.

The friend named Estner not only promised him that he could continue to provide the sunflower seeds in the future, but also advised him that he could obtain knowledge from the association through some special ways.

There was concern and sincerity in his words.

"I really have been judging others by my own standards. Even though we are far away from the capital, our friendship has not changed."

He sighed again.

Moreover, he could vaguely feel that Estner seemed to know that he had a secret, so he used the channel of the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce instead of the channel of the Mage Association.

It is to ensure that the secret will not be leaked.

No wonder he could become the disciple of a great wizard, he must have some skills.

If this is the case, I can really communicate with him more. Such a person is worth making friends with.

As for the method of acquiring knowledge he mentioned in the letter...

It seems that there is really great potential.

Simply put, it is to bypass the mage system of the Mage Association, communicate and interact directly with other lords, and obtain knowledge through the lords' channels.

Croa is now an outposted lord with his own land. In fact, in a sense, he is no longer a "magician" of the Mage Association, but a "lord".

This special situation meant that if he wanted to obtain the resources and more profound knowledge of the Mage Association through normal channels, he would have to go through layer after layer of approval.

Well... the approval efficiency of the Mage Association.

All I can say is that it's ridiculously slow.

If someone is involved in this, things will become more troublesome. After all, the lords outside are different from the mages in the Mage Association.

The priority of knowledge certainly takes precedence over the former.

So Estner recommended that Cloya communicate with some other expatriate mages to see if he could join the faction of the mage lord, so that he could get resources through another channel.

The weight of an individual and a group is different.

Even the Mage Association needs the magic materials that are continuously produced in the territories of these lords, and even needs to send special people to purchase them.

In the letter, he also kindly mentioned the names of several mage lords who might be willing to trade with Croa, as well as their code names in the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce.

Just like when Cloya was at the seaside, all he saw were magical materials from the sea. Some of those lords were inland, some were in the mountains, and some were in the desert.

The exchange of materials is obviously important.

After reading this long letter, Cloya carefully thought about the feasibility of it.

The answer is certainly yes.

By exchanging materials with other lords, you can not only gain more resources unique to other regions in your territory, but also increase your voice.

But he suddenly thought of a very important thing - if he communicated with those lords through the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce, wouldn't he only be able to use the code name "Star Spirit"?
If that gets out, I'll be exposed.

Can I open another account?
QAQ I can only update twice today. I was forced to be a pallu on Monday and I have to go to social events in the evening. I owe one update now. I will make it up as soon as possible.
