Hill sat comfortably on the terrace. He brought out the automatic musical instrument and listened to the beautiful serenade leisurely in the drizzle.
The occasional sound of wind chimes on the floating castle is like singing in harmony with the music.
Hill looked up at the wind chimes made of light blue conches under the eaves and smiled slightly.
In order to prevent Hill from actually using the dragon roar bell, Aglaia took the time to make this wind chime for him, and Terry also transformed into a human to help her weave strong silk thread.
If you really want to remind the people living in the territory that something big is happening, just pull down a crystal thread hanging from the wind chime, and those conches will resonate and make a melodious whale call.
This was enough to spread throughout the territory.
Aglaia didn't understand why Terry was so active in helping her make wind chimes at first, until she passed by Terry's room on the right side of the castle for the first time.
She heard the filtered version while flying outside the castle, and was quite frightened.
However, the two of them also had a good relationship because of this cooperation, and Hill gave up the golden dragon roar bell that could tease them both at the same time.
Anyway, it will be used in the future, especially after the undead come.
"Sir." Liszt appeared briskly: "All 200 magic storage rings have been sold out. There is a great mage in Neverwinter City who seems to want to round things off."
"Have you informed him that I can have 100 coins here every day?" Hill asked seriously.
He doesn't want to hurt innocent people because of his dumping practices.
Although speaking of it, who makes this great mage greedy and hoard goods?
But people always want to take advantage, no matter they are good people or bad people.
Hill doesn't feel that he has the status to blame others for their mistakes due to greed.
"Yes, let's make it clear. He did plan to take action in Faerun at the beginning.
But after listening to my words, the man changed his destination. He planned to go directly through the portal to the Zakara Continent. The climate there is too hot and there is a great need for things like magic storage rings." Liszt said in a low voice.
, "He wanted to ask if there was anything else suitable for use over there? Then he praised Miss Aglaia a few times."
Hill immediately understood that he wanted to ask Aglaia if she wanted to sell a divine tool that could produce clean water.
Moreover, if Aglaia is willing to give a discount, the archmage will be willing to help her spread the name of God.
But this kind of thing must be done by Aglaia herself.
Promises made to gods are more binding than signed contracts.
"You go directly to Aglaia." Hill smiled and nodded, "See if she is willing to let her name appear in the Zakara continent. I remember that she can make the kind of clear water beads that can be stored for a year."
"Miss Aglaia may not be willing," Liszt replied. "She has not stopped in the past two days except for her daily purification work. The rest of the time she has been hiding in the room, studying those necklaces."
Hill tilted his head and smiled: "Aglaia is a good child with great restraint, and she will make the right judgment.
If she refuses, it’s just that she doesn’t need it.”
Lister glanced at Hill intently, and after confirming that he really thought so, he disappeared directly.
Hill pouted, so what about chaotic kindness?
Aglaia is already very smart and capable! Otherwise, she would not have learned those skills from Hill that are of no use to the gods.
Just like water beads and nutrient beads.
Both of these are rare items from Toril. Hill was very curious when he discovered them and learned how to make them.
The texture of this bead is spongy and gel-like. When eaten, it dissolves on the tongue and has no taste.
However, the nutrition beads can be eaten directly, while the water beads must be mixed with any non-magical, harmless liquid to dissolve and converted into 1 pint (470 ml) of drinkable cold water.
Just a little bit of liquid is enough. It is impossible to find a place where people can survive without even this.
If not, at least the sweat can be reused!
However, these two things were of no use to Hill. He learned them and stopped caring about them.
However, Aglaia thought it might be used in the future, so she also learned how to make it. After all, pure seawater can also be used to melt clean water.
But later they discovered that similar rare items were for sale in both Neverwinter City and Waterdeep City, and the price was not expensive, so Hill and Aglaia gave up.
Especially Aglaia, this thing can only be sold, not given away, unless she has enough devout believers.
God's kindness must not be given without a bottom line. It is already good that she can let people come to fetch water without any restrictions.
Hill waited for three days for news from Waterdeep City.
Kelben is indeed very powerful, but for Waterdeep, which is known as the City of Glory and has a profound foundation, he does not have the ability to cover the sky with one hand.
It is already difficult to delay the arrival of these caravans for three days.
But these caravans actually already knew what was going on. Their seemingly long caravans were filled with basic supplies that Neverwinter rarely purchased.
Only in Hill, a place where no one farmed, would large quantities of land be purchased.
Especially for some grain, it is much more cost-effective to send it to Hill than to send it to the ship for sale, where the whole army may be wiped out by wind and waves.
Although the profit offered by Hill was not very high, most businessmen would not gamble their luck on something as large as grain.
But in the past, these Waterdeep City merchants would only bring a few vehicles, and the convoy would still go to Neverwinter.
Although they were also worried that Hill's acquisition of these basic materials would soon be full and stop, the worst case scenario would be to bring them back to Shenshui.
They all have money on them!
Even if there are dozens of carts of grain, the price earned is not as good as a magic storage ring.
It doesn't matter if you can't sell it here. Who among the merchants in Waterdeep City doesn't have a channel to other areas?
Seeing them rushing into the commercial street and waiting in line, Hill smiled with satisfaction amid the thunder and lightning.
He had already calculated the material cost of Kelben. Even if he could squeeze it to the limit, it would cost at least 20 gold coins.
Even if he asked dozens of his students to carve runes together, the materials for the carving would still cost 2 gold, and no matter how honest his students were, Kelben would still have to give him 2 gold for crafting.
This is Faerun, a place where every spell and every drop of mana is worth a lot of money.
Hill also kindly left him a profit margin of 1 gold coin. If Kelben sold it in his magic tower, he would not lose it!
Of course, those who sell goods may not get much salary.
Hill felt that he was still very merciful and did not completely cut off the mage lord's way of shipping, as long as he was willing to waste time and personally earn this 1 gold under the eyes of all the gods and powerful men.
Just like the Wanxiang Impermanence card he sent.
This is the method used by Black Stick to maintain his own camp. He did not cut off Hill's way of survival, but gave Hill the opportunity to make his own choice.
As long as Hill is not greedy and has sense, he will not turn over this card and cause himself trouble or even death.
Hill has really learned a lot of methods from this mage lord. Isn't it just to leave a little room for things that seem to be impossible in fact?
False love in return of false love is just retaliation in the end.
Hill took a look at Aglaia's temple, and finally decided to spend some time making water beads every day.
The Archmage of Neverwinter quickly decided to leave after a week.
I've been hanging around the temple these past few days.
Aglaia's reputation among passers-by and even mages is getting better and better.
Even though she won't be as approachable as the gods of Toril, she won't look at others differently because of their uniqueness.
Poseidon has always behaved very arrogantly, even unwilling to show his body in front of humans.
But she is willing to deal fairly with everyone, whether they are believers of other gods or mages who are full of doubts about the gods, Aglaia has never made any difference.
She just doesn't cooperate with the evil camp.
But people from the evil camp don't really hate Aglaia.
Actually it's the same reason: fairness.
There are only puppets in Aglaia's temple. No amount of money and power can make anyone an exception.
Of course, this is also because Aglaia is strong enough to stick to her own personality and does not need to compromise with anyone or God.
After all, everyone knows that Aglaia, who is now staying in the Swamp of the Dead, is just a clone.
It is the same existence as Embry's incarnation.
However, she behaved so powerfully that no one would trouble her even though she was unable to access Aglaia's true form and the goddess maintained an attitude of not wanting to get involved in anything.
No one could have guessed that this so-called clone had almost half of Aglaia's divine power.
‘Boom!’! The clouds that had accumulated in the sky for several days were finally shattered by the endless thunder, and the drizzle instantly turned into a violent storm.
Hill watched with satisfaction as all the lightning and thunder over the territory finally concentrated on Terry's roof.
Most of the humans below who were ready to move had given up the idea of continuing to wait in the territory.
Many people put on their raincoats and rushed to the road, hoping to find opportunities in the other two cities.
Some people even rushed directly into the wilderness from the exit on the other side of the forest formation. It was only accessible but not accessible. It was only opened for the convenience of those who wanted to venture into the wilderness.
Once you get out, you have to walk for several days before you can get around to the main road.
"Hill~" Terry in human form suddenly rushed up, "Hill~ I want to come back and live here in the next few days."
He touched his neck hintingly: "I think when something good happens, it's best to stay away from my dad."
It seems that he has found a way to use the pendant as a key to dimensional space.
"Terry, you better calm down.
If you can't control your emotions, you'd better wait until next year to go see it." Hill thought about it and stopped Terry's impulse, "Otherwise, your father will find out that you have made a fortune tomorrow.
I can’t get involved in what’s going on between you father and son.”
Terry's eyes froze, and he fell into a painful decision.
