Chapter 198: Heart Like Iron
Herbal magic plants are collectively called "grass" in Flora's mouth.
"Yes, what's the problem?" Gothe replied.
“Why bother?”
“Where is the trouble?”
"Why do you humans have to summarize so many rules?"
"Because in this way, you can figure out the habits of magic plants, know what conditions are most suitable for their growth, and even let them upgrade, and know what they are about. As time goes by, they will grow up and know what they need at the moment." Gao De patiently explained.
“Can’t you feel these directly?”
“Of course not.” Gothe suddenly reacted and looked at Flora with wide eyes, “You can?!”
"Yes, Lady Flora can know what they need just by touching them."
This is not a joke. Gaode expressed shock.
“Can Lady Flora know the needs of any plant by touching it?” Gothe asked solemnly.
“Yes.”
“Lady Flora, I want to take back what I said before.”
“What words?”
"I can't plant trees, flowers, or grass. At least compared to you, I don't know how."
"Master, then I have to take back what I said before."
"What are you talking about?"
"You are not smart."
Gothe pursed his lips and chose to endure it.
He bent down, placed the small cup in his hand on the ground, and pushed it in front of Flora.
Flora lowered her head and glanced at the 'small cup', then looked up at Gothe:
"What is this?"
"It's delicious, I'll treat you to it. Drink.”
So, Flora flew to the cup, pulled on the edge of the cup, like a child pulling on a water jar, and took a careful lick.
"!!" She immediately raised her head and looked at Gothe.
"Do you like it, Flora?"
"Yes."
"This is all for you, and there will be more in the future."
"Thank you."
The next day.
Misty Frost Moon, 21st.
Gaode got up early.
At least when he got up, Flora was still sleeping soundly.
Today, he still has a lot to do.
Gaode first came to the trading area of the college.
Compared to other areas and facilities in the college, the shops in the trading area have opened their doors earlier.
So he successfully bought the yeast and seasonal fruits needed to brew fruit drinks.
However, Gaode did not leave immediately, but came to the central area of the trading area.
The shops on the edge of the college trading area sell ordinary daily necessities or food, while the shops in the center sell mage items.
Gothe found a potion store and walked in.
"Hello, what do you need?" The person who received Gaode was a young mage wearing a standard student robe. He was obviously a "work-study" student.
“One portion each of Songhai bird eggs, Abeshian longfin fish scales, Omra goat unicorn powder, half a cup of sungrass powder, and 15 drops of ice juice.”
This is the raw material needed for the [Tolerate the Environment] spell potion.
"There are also 1 gu of swift grass powder, 1 gu of black sour fruit liquid, and 8 gu of maid clam meat." Gaode reported the [Language Comprehension] and [Shield Technique] magic potions respectively. Required main and auxiliary materials.
After listening to Gaode announcing the names of the required ingredients, the young mage immediately began to rummage in the medicine cabinet against the wall skillfully and neatly.
The three first-level spells selected by Gaode are the most common spells used by first-level mages. Correspondingly, the corresponding raw materials are also the most complete in stock.
“A first-order pine and sea bird egg is worth 14 gold and 2 silver, a first-order Omla goat unicorn powder is worth 13 gold and 16 silver, and a half of sun grass powder is worth 3 gold.”
The young mage weighed out the corresponding materials according to Gaode's needs and gave Gaode a quotation.
A magic potion usually consists of 2 main ingredients and 3-5 auxiliary ingredients.
The main materials are all raw materials corresponding to the level. The main materials of a first-level spell are generally first-level potion materials, and the auxiliary materials are the next-level potion materials.
Combining the main and auxiliary materials, the total price is almost in the range of 40 gold coins, sometimes more, sometimes less.
"As for the maid's clams, there is not enough stock in the store. The next batch will probably arrive in seven days." The young mage opened the medicine cabinet where the maid's clams were stored, took a look, and then apologized. The only raw material needed by Gaode is the maid clam meat.
“This thing is not easy to preserve, and it is usually harvested freshly, so the college specially set aside a piece of water to breed maid clams.” He said.
Gothe nodded to express his understanding.
Don’t worry, just come back in seven days.
“But for this thing, in the name of learning [Language Proficiency] and needing to prepare spells and potions, I suggest you go directly to the Potions Department and apply to collect it yourself. A maid clam only costs you 5 gold. Of course, Only one is allowed to be collected. If you buy it in the store, you will need 12 gold." The young mage suddenly reminded Gao De.
Gaode was startled, and then asked in surprise: "Do you know me?"
"My name is Us, a member of the Mutual Aid Association, Gaode, I have admired my name for a long time." The young mage smiled politely and said to himself introduced.
He also saw the news about Gothe's promotion to a first-level mage last night.
For such a talented mage, if there is an opportunity to make friends and release goodwill, he will definitely not miss it.
This is the benefit of having a good reputation.
In addition to causing unnecessary trouble, more often than not, it actually brings some unexpected benefits and goodwill.
"Most mages find it troublesome and are not willing to go to the water to collect clams. They would rather spend the extra 7 gold, but you are different. This is completely effortless for you." Wus boasted without leaving any trace. road.
Gaode's reputation as an "expert clam collector" is also well-known in the academy.
"I understand, thank you." Gaode took the other potion materials, took out the money bag at the same time, and paid 106 gold and 12 silver.
He was indeed moved.
Gaode returned to Building 30, District 1, with the purchased supplies.
First, he brewed the leak-free fruit, and then went to the workshop to prepare the [Environment Endurance] and [Shield] magic potions.
Calling it a blend is an exaggeration, but it's actually just a pot of random stew.
Put all the ingredients together according to their portions, simmer them over fire, and boil them into juice. There are no details or operations to speak of in the whole process.
After all, the purpose of this cooking process is just to make it easier to eat
After busy with all this, Gothe went upstairs and took a look, and Flora was still sleeping soundly. .
He shook his head and did not disturb her.
This is the little ancestor.
The second floor of the library.
Gaode rushed to the opening door.
Fortunately, although the old mage guarding the second floor was quite old, he did not have the old habit of "coming in late and leaving early".
"You are here so early? Have you decided which practice method to choose?" The old mage had just sat down and made tea when he saw Gothe appear from around the corner. He was also very surprised.
Gothe nodded.
"Which one do you want to choose?" The old mage was also a little curious that Gothe went back to think about the results of the night. He asked while picking up the cup.
"Aoki Immortality Sutra." Gaode said decisively with a clear goal.
"Pfft!" The tea that the old mage had just taken into his mouth spurted out.
Gothe looked at the old mage with an innocent face.
"I should have told you about the flaws of the Green Wood Sutra yesterday, right?" The old mage put down his tea cup, frowned at Gaode, and couldn't help but advise: "Don't be fooled by its appearance."
"There is no such thing as a free lunch. If this Eastern cultivation method is so amazing, those Eastern magicians will not work so hard to teach it."
"I have thought about it." Gao De showed his longing, "I have loved planting flowers, plants and trees since I was a child. It is rare that there is a practice that can match my hobbies. Even if it has some flaws, I am fascinated by it."
Gao De finished his statement. After giving his reasons, the old mage still looked embarrassed.
After Gaode left yesterday, he also found out the origin of Gaode.
No matter how you look at it, this is a mage seed.
It would be a pity no matter how you think about it if you choose such a flawed practice method.
"I have already thought about it." Gothe said again, insisting on his decision.
The old mage shook his head and sighed.
Gaode has already made it clear that his heart is iron-clad and cannot be persuaded by just a few words.
He is not a highly virtuous mentor or relative, so no matter how much he keeps urging his teacher to go out of his way, it is all for nothing.
"Bring me the identity plate." He said.
Gaode handed over his identity plate.
After the old mage used the alchemy machine to swipe away 25 points of Gaode, he took Gaode to a bookcase locked with a secret method and labeled with the [Aoki Sutra of Immortality].
After opening it, there are hundreds of copies of the [Aoki Immortality Sutra] neatly placed inside.
"Look, at the beginning, five hundred copies of each practice method were copied, and this [Aoki Immortality Sutra] is the most left." The old mage pointed to the [Aoki Immortality Sutra] in the bookcase.
He is making a last-ditch attempt to get Gothe to change his mind.
But Gaode remained unmoved.
The old mage had no choice but to take out a book and handed it to Gaode.
