The inability to immediately obtain the fifth-level membership certification of the Moon River Guild meant that he was temporarily classified as a low-level mage. This was somewhat different from Moriarty's previous assumptions. But he only paused for a moment.
Moriarty suddenly smiled: "Thank you, Lord Barton. The guild's charter must be strictly observed. I have no objection to your decision."
"Haha, that's good." Seeing the other party's reasonable acceptance, Barton also smiled knowingly.
To be honest, if Moriarty refuses to "give in" temporarily and insists on getting the fifth-level guild level immediately, Barton will probably compromise in the end. After all, you can't drive away a rare alchemist just for such a small thing.
Ran away. But in this way, the mid-level mage's perception of Moriarty is bound to be much different. After all, no one likes a completely self-centered "trickster".
"Sir Barton, it seems that the headquarters here is very deserted." After all the membership registration procedures were completed, Moriarty was considered a formal member of Moon River, and he continued chatting with the other party.
"Yes. There are not many local mages in Erathia, and most of the members are scattered in various counties across the country. They only return to the royal capital at the beginning of each year to participate in the guild's unified gathering." Barton nodded:
"On weekdays, there will only be one mid-level mage left on duty at the headquarters to handle some daily guild affairs."
"I see."
"Master Moriarty, what are the areas of expertise in your earth studio in Brakada?" After chatting for a few more topics about the guild, Barton leaned forward slightly and asked. Obviously, this
It is the core content that mid-level mages really care about.
"My studio has only been established recently, and the main product at present is alchemy potions." Moriarty smiled slightly, then took out a small box from his arms and placed it in front of Barton.
"This is…"
At Moriarty's signal, the mid-level mage opened the small box and saw four potions of "brute force", "healing", "detoxification" and "endurance supplement" placed side by side. He looked at it again in surprise.
Looking at each other, Barton took out the glass tubes containing the potions in the box one by one and examined them carefully. After a while, he smiled at Moriarty with some surprise: "You can independently produce a complete set of adventurer alchemy potions.
The studio is really excellent!”
"Haha, thank you for your compliment." Moriarty nodded calmly, but once again took out a magic dagger from his space pocket and handed it to the opponent's hand: "In addition to potions, Earth Studio has recently begun to gradually provide magic equipment.
to explore the field.”
"…magic equipment…"
Before the smile faded away, the mid-level mage looked straight at the black dagger in his hand and was stunned. If the appearance of the four alchemy potion sets just now made Barton overjoyed, then Moriarty followed immediately.
The mention of "magic equipment" almost instantly petrified the mid-level mage.
With an incredible look on his face, Barton suddenly pulled out the piercing dagger from the sheath. Immediately, an invisible magic wave touched the middle-level mage's mental power like lightning. Without pausing, Barton directly stabbed the dagger in his hand hard into his body.
The oak desk in front of him was like a hot table knife inserted into a fresh croissant. The magic dagger easily penetrated the solid wooden board completely and did not stop until the handle was gone.
"Pierce!" The mid-level mage stood up and shouted loudly, as if he was struck by lightning.
"Yes, it's just a one-star piercing effect. The higher-level magic equipment effects are currently beyond the capabilities of my studio." Moriarty also stood up and explained.
"Master Moriarty, you are a genius, a true alchemy genius!" He took a deep look at the alchemy potion set on the table and the magic dagger with only the handle exposed. Barton hurriedly walked to Moriarty and said
Holding the opponent's hand: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn't believe that a first-level alchemist could achieve such amazing results in two alchemical fields at the same time."
"Thank you." Moriarty looked at the mid-level mage with a smile.
"Master Moriarty, do you intend to sell the alchemical products of the Earth Studio to Erathia?" Barton asked quickly in one breath: "With your permission, the guild can act as an agent for you free of charge."
"Sales agent..." Upon hearing this, Moriarty smiled again.
The so-called free agent, on the surface, Moriarty can indeed easily extend his sales channels into the human kingdom. In this way, it can not only bring a large number of new customers to Earth Studio, obtain more profits, but also
It is convenient to cultivate a new independent market outside Azurite City and avoid the unfavorable situation of being "choked" by the main government of Azurite City or even Hockenheim College in the future.
However, it would be a big mistake to think that Moriarty took advantage and Moon River was a good guy in vain.
In the past, Erathia imported magic items from Bracada mostly through major chambers of commerce or caravans of local nobles. Not only were the prices high, but the quality was uneven and disorganized. Moreover, the alchemists in Bracada were generally arrogant.
They are uninhibited and disdainful of Erathia's "peer" exchanges. Therefore, over the past hundred years, the Moon River Guild has made many efforts to establish cooperative alliances with certain alchemy studios, but has failed.
Now, once it can become the stable agent of Earth Studio in Erathia, it will be equivalent to the guild mastering a key channel that can continuously supply alchemical potions and magic equipment. And those who are most thirsty for alchemical products are also the ones who consume the most.
They are the powerful local nobles in each county and the mean square of Erathia. Even if the guild does not earn even a single gold coin on its books from selling magic products, the hidden benefits contained therein are considerable.
"I don't think there is any need for free agency. If the guild really needs it, I can export a certain amount of alchemy potions and magic equipment to the guild every year, and the guild will sell them in Erathia. As for the agency fee, it will be based on the sales price.
Ten percent of the price will be deducted from the payment as a small contribution to the Moon River Guild as a new member of mine." Under the expectant eyes of the mid-level mage, Moriarty said slowly.
"Great! Master Moriarty, thank you!" After receiving a clear promise of cooperation, and the other party also promised to contribute one-tenth of the price of the goods to the guild, Barton jumped up excitedly.
"It's nothing." Moriarty waved his hand and stopped the mid-level mage's words of thanks. At the same time, he pointed at the potions and daggers on the table: "As for these, I will give them to you as a meeting gift for this junior."
"Master Moriarty, it's really..." At this moment, Barton really didn't know what to say. He just felt that everything the young mage in front of him said and did made people feel like this.
Comfortable and pleasant. After sincerely thanking him, the mid-level mage put away the alchemy potion set and the piercing dagger.
"Sir Barton, I heard from Master Johnson that there are spell scrolls and magic materials for sale in the guild. Can I take a look?" The two sat down again, and Moriarty continued to ask.
"Of course." Without any hesitation, Barton nodded, then took out a large open booklet from the filing cabinet on one side and handed it to Moriarty: "This is the catalog."
"Thank you." Moriarty took it and immediately started reading.
The catalog is roughly divided into five major categories: magic books, magic materials, magic props, spell scrolls, and other comprehensive categories. However, it is obviously subject to the serious regression of Erathia's local magic civilization. In "books", "materials" and "
There are not many items for sale marked on the three pages of "Props", and most of them can be easily obtained in Bracada.
When he read the "Spell Scroll" page, Moriarty's eyes suddenly brightened, and then after scanning for a few times, he turned to the "Comprehensive" page. After another pause, the mage
Then he put the catalog back on the desk.
"Is there anything you need to buy among them?" To be honest, Barton didn't think that alchemists with a deep foundation in the "Mage's Hometown" would appreciate the items sold by the Moon River Guild, just like a large chamber of commerce.
It’s not necessarily the same as buying from a small vendor. However, mid-level mages who don’t have a deep understanding of the strict Brakada academy system have no way of knowing that in an academy like Hockenheim, sometimes even if there is
Money matters and it is not possible to buy all the magic items you wish for, especially certain magic scrolls.
"Yes, I would like to purchase a spell learning scroll for 'Wall of Fire' and 'Blindness'." Moriarty pointed to the details on the "Spell Scroll" page and said.
"The second-level fire spells 'Wall of Flame' and 'Blindness'." Barton was slightly startled, and according to the notes on the side of the catalog, it was clearly stated that only guild members of level five or above are eligible to apply for these two scrolls, but...
"Okay, on behalf of the guild, I agree to sell you the learning scrolls of these two second-level spells." After only a slight hesitation, the mid-level mage agreed. After all, neither the public nor private Barton had the courage to refuse.
Can't refuse either.
"Thank you." Moriarty smiled and thanked the mid-level mage, then turned the book to the next page, pointed his finger at a certain column on the "comprehensive page" and said: "Also, I want to take a look at this
The physical object.”
"Is this it?" The mid-level mage looked along Moriarty's fingertips, then nodded suddenly and stood up: "Okay, please come with me."
