This way, his strength and constitution attribute points won't be wasted.

Lott replied to Chloris, "I know, but learning magic is my hobby."

“Lotte, where did you get this knowledge from? Constructors are a rare profession that only exists in big cities.” Chloris rested her chin on her hands, staring intently into Lotte’s eyes. “Are you really some young master from a great noble family?”

"You are too, Miss Chloris."

Seeing that Lott wasn't going to explain, Chloris didn't press for details. She sighed and closed the small wooden box on the table.

Lott asked, "You're not letting me see it?"

“You even know the architect, so my book is like a fairy tale to you.”

Chloris pouted slightly. She had originally intended to use this to trade with Lott, but it turned out that Lott probably wouldn't even consider it.

She stole a glance at Lott and quietly moved a few steps toward him. When she noticed Lott raising his head, she quickly turned her head away.

Lott knew what Chloris was thinking, but he didn't say anything and pretended not to know.

Chloris was getting impatient. She moved closer to Lott and gently bumped his shoulder with the back of her hand.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Chloris bit her lip, her face flushed, her wet amber eyes looking at the crack in the ground. "Lotte... help me... aren't we teammates?"

Lotte stopped teasing Chloris.

He also wanted to go to Whitestone. If what Chloris said was true, then Attenborough would also send people to guard it, and perhaps they would encounter a mage casting a spell.

The requirement to advance from novice mage to junior mage is to master at least three non-meditation spells, and he is still one short.

He planned to go to Whitestone Town to try his luck and find someone.

Lott said, "Then we'll split the money 28/20."

"Two-eighths?!" Chloris stared wide-eyed at Lotte. "At most four-sixths!"

"How about this, to be fair, we'll calculate the rewards for killing monsters separately? But the condition is that you have to protect me and not leave my side to hunt alone."

Chloris always felt that Lott was very cunning and definitely had some bad intentions up his sleeve!

However, she also knew that Lotte's [Basic Fireball] was effective against a single monster, but its power was greatly reduced against a group of monsters, making it impossible for Lotte to clear out all the monsters by himself.

“Alright, I agree.” Chloris made a deal with the demon. “What are you going to say to my uncle?”

“I want to change my weapon.” Lotte pointed to the sword in the corner. “This is Adam’s sword, a standard [standard] sword, which cannot be equipped with talents. The blacksmith Hagen said he has a relative in White Rock Town who apprenticed with a dwarf and can make a higher-grade [fine] sword.”

Lott stood up, picked up his sword and staff. "I'll ask Hagen to go with us. With him there, Bald should agree. By the way, isn't Bald coming with us?"

"He's busy opening his shop, so he won't be coming with us."

As it turned out, Chloris was wrong.

The next day, when Lotte, Chloris, and Hagen appeared before Baldr, Baldr immediately offered to go with them.

If Hagen hadn't repeatedly assured him, Bard would have insisted on closing the store.

Bard pulled Lotte aside, glanced at Chloris carrying her luggage behind him, and then looked at Lotte. "Lotte, you know what I'm going to say, right?"

"I know."

"Hagen's daughter is nice, very pretty. Chloris has a strange temper, and acts like a spoiled rich girl..."

"Uncle Bald!"

Bard whirled around and found Chloris already behind him. Chloris puffed out her cheeks and stomped her foot: "How could you say that!"

"Ah, this, this..."

After saying goodbye to Baldr, the three of them walked along the main road toward Whitestone Town.

The sun was shining brightly, white clouds were drifting by, and a girl beside me was singing softly.

A cool breeze wafted from the winding stream not far away, and the three of them clattered as their boots pounded on the stones.

This was the adventure that Chloris had been longing for.

They traveled during the day and slept in their sleeping bags at night.

Chloris prepared many sandwiches by hand, and Lotte ate his fill every day, with a different flavor each day.

Two days passed peacefully like this.

On the afternoon of the third day, Chloris jogged a few steps to a rock, put her hand on her forehead to shield her eyes from the sun, and gazed into the distance.

Then she turned her head and waved to Lott: "Come on, come on, we're in Whitestone Town."

Lotte leaped onto the large rock in a few steps and looked into the distance.

He suddenly thought of the city of Orlandis.

Below me stretched a vast grassland, and Baishi Town sat on the distant horizon.

Not far away, a group of giant bronze frogs were hunting fish in the stream.

These giant frogs, with their bronze-yellow skin, are adept at leaping and attacking, and they will use their tongues to entangle their enemies.

"Chloris, this should be considered a designated area, right? How much is the giant frog worth?"

"Two silver coins."

Chloris understood what Lott meant. She unpacked her bag, gripped her spear in both hands, and took a deep breath with some tension. "There are five in total. We'll fight and retreat as we go to avoid being surrounded."

“No need, no need.” Lott waved his hand. “The terrain here is high, and the wind speed and temperature are just right. We’ll stay here.”

Lotte opened the panel, intending to add attribute points before the battle.

【Power: 17→18】

[Perception: 14 → 16]

Arcane: 9 → 16

He added 7 points to Arcane, 2 points to Perception, and 1 point to Strength. He kept 4 points for emergencies.

Chloris glanced at the giant frog by the stream and advised, "Lotte, the Bronze Drum Frog lives by the river, has moist skin, and is somewhat resistant to fire. Your Fireball spell is naturally countered by the Bronze Drum Frog, and your Fireball spell can only take down one monster at most at a time."

"I don't use fireball."

"Then what will you use?"

Lott didn't answer. He looked at Chloris, whose hair was being tousled by the wind, and smiled, "We agreed that whoever gets the kill gets the reward. You can't go back on your word."

Chapter 35. Master Lott will pay your bills!

Lott desperately needs money right now.

Weapons of the [Refined Grade] and above can be awakened and equipped with talents; the higher the grade, the more talents can be equipped.

Dwarves can use special techniques to integrate a part of a weapon into a new weapon, and even if the weapon is changed in the future, the original talent can be retained in the hands of a dwarf.

Weapon talents are bound to a person's soul; only the owner can release the corresponding talent.

This is called [Weapon Training].

Weapon training should begin as early as possible, and Lotte plans to start now.

As for why they didn't save up to buy a staff, it's because staffs are too expensive, while a [Refined] weapon can be purchased for only 20 silver coins.

Since buying the [Explosion] spell, Chloe only has 4 silver coins left.

He's far from good enough.

Lotte gave a thumbs-up and pointed it at the giant frog in the distance.

Hagen, being a wandering knight, found Lott's posture a bit strange and asked, "Are you measuring distances?"

"No, I'm invoking a deity."

Lotte raised his staff with both hands, aiming it at the giant frogs near the stream.

He began to chant softly, and a magic circle gradually lit up in front of the crystal on his staff. After this magic circle was formed, a new magic circle was placed on top of it.

Elementary and intermediate magic are just common terms for magic.

In the book "Los Wesson's Basic Arcane Magic", magic is divided into ten levels according to the spellcasting hierarchy.

Lotte's basic Fireball spell has only one magic circle, making it a first-circle spell. However, her awakened Explosion spell has two magic circles, the second being a special magic circle that controls the blast radius, making it a second-circle spell.

A thin blue line appeared above the giant frogs' heads. They were still focused on the small fish in the river, completely unaware of the danger that was about to befall them.

Suddenly, the blue line expanded instantly, completely engulfing three of the giant frogs.

"Boom—!"

Lotte's entire magical power exploded instantly above the giant frog's head.

These giant frogs, half a meter tall, instinctively tried to jump into the stream for refuge, but the powerful impact of the explosion lifted their hind legs, causing their bodies to fly forward involuntarily, rolling several times.

A giant column of water shot up from the stream, carrying surrounding pebbles into the air, and was then pushed to Chloris and the others by the aftershocks of the explosion.

Chloris shielded her face with her arm to avoid being splashed by water and pebbles.

Once the aftershocks of the explosion subsided, she quickly looked up at that spot.

A deep pit appeared beside the stream where the giant frog had been, and the stream was blasted open, gradually filling the pit.

Three of the five giant frogs were already mutilated, and the other two were lying on the spot panting heavily, presumably their internal organs had been damaged by the shock.

A mushroom cloud rose slowly, and after it dissipated, a rainbow hung high in the sky, like a reward from the gods to Lotte.

The Burst spell, now at level 5, not only gains the Control feat but also boasts significantly increased power, making it comparable to a 3rd-level spell.

Chloris rubbed her eyes, still finding it unbelievable.

Only three days had passed since she and Lott went to Attenborough to buy the magic scroll. In those three days, Lott not only learned the magic, but also enhanced its power, giving the magic scroll, which was worth 1 gold coin, the power of magic worth 10 gold coins.

What else could this be but genius?

Chloris couldn't help but ask, "Lotte, how did you do that?"

"Just be kind to the world. I help old ladies and little girls every day."

Chloris thought Lott was joking again, and she was about to argue when she turned around and found that Lott had already squatted on the ground.

Lotte burned out.

The essence of the [Explosion] spell is to detonate all the magic power in the body at once, and even the control feat cannot change this.

The magic power within him had been completely drained by the [Explosion] spell. Lotte was dizzy and disoriented, and the world was constantly changing shape before his eyes. Even Chloris had become two.

A cool sensation came from the back of his neck, and then Lotte heard Chloris's voice: "Mr. Hagen, could you please go to the river and fetch some water?"

"it is good."

Chloris poured water from the water pouch onto a handkerchief and placed it on the back of Lotte's neck.

Then she gently patted Lott's back.

"Is this the side effect of your magic? It's a good thing there's a side effect, otherwise I would have doubted that you and we are from different worlds."

Despite feeling dizzy, Lott managed a forced smile.

After a short rest, Lotte finally recovered. The world stopped spinning, and Chloris returned to normal. With the help of breathing meditation, his magic had returned to normal levels.

The three of them went to the riverbank to search for their loot and began to settle accounts.

Hagen cut off their limbs and threw them by the creek.

Lotte picked up one of them and looked at it, then suddenly had a brilliant idea: "Chloris, if I buy up a large number of monsters around here at the price of one silver coin, and then trade them in Whitestone Town to make a profit from the price difference, wouldn't I make even more money?"

"The Adventurers' Guild in White Rock will check the time of monster death. Monsters that die more than four hours ago will not be eligible for subsidies."

This will limit the scope of monster extermination to the area near White Rock Town.

"What if I keep using teleportation magic to kill monsters?"

"You've already used a very high-level teleportation spell, why would you care about such a small silver coin?"

"That's true."

Lotte stuffed the severed limbs of the five giant frogs into the bag, patted the bulging bag, and listened to the sound of the coins.

With just one [Explosion] spell, Lotte obtained 10 silver coins!

We're one step closer to our goal!
