Celestial Mage

Chapter 138 The Nature of the Conscious Desktop (24)

The dock area is not far from the leafy city.

Holding the address given by Serendis in his hand, he arrived in the carriage in less than 10 minutes.

Soon, the carriage came to a blacksmith's shop with a large yard in the dock area. The sound of tinkling iron could be heard across the yard, which showed that the business was booming.

And Gendroni's magic weapon shop is just opposite the blacksmith's shop. It is a narrow shop less than five meters wide.

"That's a really straightforward name."

The carriage stopped at the door, and Rosen put a cross-body bag on his back, jumped lightly, crossed the muddy road, and landed on the stone steps at the door of the shop.

After tidying up the windbreaker casually, with a slightly stern face, he walked into the door of the shop.

When I first entered the store, I didn't see anyone, but I heard an enthusiastic young female voice behind the large wooden counter in the store.

"Ah~~ Finally a guest~~haha~"

Immediately afterwards, a petite young girl ran out from behind the counter like a hopping rabbit.

Rosen squinted and observed.

I saw that the girl was about 21 or 1.5 years old, about the same age as her mentor Serrandis, and she was very short, only a little over [-] meters in height. She had neat short brown-blond hair that reached her ears, and a delicate and pleasing oval round face.

At this moment, she had a big smile on her face, and two small pear dimples were clearly visible on her pale cheeks. Coupled with her small size, she looked like a sunshine girl who hadn't fully grown up yet.

However, her dress is very casual and very masculine.

The upper body is a thin cotton hip-length short robe, and the lower body is a pair of masculine tight trousers. Because the robe is a bit short, it is also tied with a tight belt, which faintly reveals a line of white waist when running.

Fortunately, a large stained leather apron was tied in front of him, barely covering the ray of spring that leaked out.

The instructor is right, life is really very casual.

Rosen asked, "Miss Gendroni?"

"Yes, yes, it's me, what do you want to buy?"

He took out a letter of introduction from his mentor and handed it over: "I am Rosen Ferlande, the magic apprentice of Anna Serrandis. My mentor introduced me to learn how to make rune stones from you."

The smile on Jandelone's face stagnated, showing full of disappointment.

"So I didn't come here to buy things. Ah, what did you just say? Anna's apprentice?"

She came to her senses belatedly, and immediately stretched out her hand to take the letter of introduction that Rosen handed over. Looking at it, the smile on her face that had faded became stronger again.

"Aha~~ Anna's apprentice actually came to me to learn how to refine weapons. Let me tell you first, I won't charge you a cent less tuition because you are Anna's apprentice. After all, I am very short of money now."

In the past, these words would naturally cause great psychological pressure on Rosen, and he would try to find a way to get a discounted price, but now, he is not short of money.

Or to be more precise, it's not bad to learn spells for a little money.

So, he smiled slightly: "So, how much is the tuition fee?"

"It depends on what you want to learn. Of course, it also depends on what I know."

After thinking for a while, Gendroni said: "Wait a minute, I'll bring my spell book, which contains all the knowledge I know about refining weapons. I'll give you 10 minutes to choose the knowledge you want to learn."

With that said, she turned and ran into the back room of the shop.

Rosen was slightly taken aback, and thought to himself, "Isn't this too casual?"

Spell books are treasures of mages, so they are not easily read by outsiders.

But since the other party is willing to show him, then he naturally wants to.

After a while, Gendeloni walked out of the back room quickly, holding a large and thick spell book in her hand.

The cover is brown cowhide, and the corners of the book are decorated with silver mithril. There are many bump marks on the mithril, which shows that the owner has read it very frequently.

"Here, remember, you can only watch for 10 minutes, and you will be paid for every second you watch."

While speaking, Gendeloni took out a small hourglass, reset it and put it on the counter beside it to time the hour.

Rosen started to flip through, page by page, very fast.

"Turn slowly, what can you see so quickly?"

"It's okay, I can read things quickly. Miss Gendroni, your handwriting is really good, and the typesetting is also very clear. Just looking at it is pleasing to the eye."

"That's natural. As an expert in refining mana that is good at fine mana control, having a good handwriting is a basic skill. After reading for so long, haven't you seen any of them?"

Rosen shook his head: "Don't worry, Miss Gendroni, I have to choose carefully."

When he continued to browse, he asked again: "Miss, are you really short of money?"

"Who doesn't need money? When I left home, I brought 40 crowns with me. When I came here, I had to pay rent, eat delicious food, wear nice clothes, burn firewood in winter, and get rid of insects in summer. No money."

"Then if I learn all the knowledge in this spell book, how much will you charge?"

"Hey, young people, don't be greedy."

"It took me ten years to accumulate the knowledge in this book. Since you are Anna's apprentice, learn your spells well and don't put too much energy on refining weapons."

"How much?" Rosen asked persistently.

"At least 1000 crowns."

"Well, it's a bit expensive, but it's still affordable."

While speaking, Rosen had already finished the basics of the refining tool, and as the basic knowledge was scanned into the adventure log, a stream of information flashed in his mind.

'Acquire a system of basic refining knowledge, the new program "Rosen's Refining Workshop" has been installed and can be viewed at any time. '

Rosen was overjoyed, his hands kept moving, and he continued to look through.

After about 8 minutes of reading, he clearly recorded all the contents of the spell notes in the adventure log.

Today, he already has a very solid foundation in the field of magic arts.

Artifact refining is a branch of art. With Gendeloni's knowledge as a foundation, he can study artifacts by himself.

'Crack~~'

Gently closing the spell note, Rosen smiled and said, "Miss Gendroni, your handwriting, typesetting and hand-painted illustrations are all exquisite. It is my honor to see such an excellent spell note."

If Gendeloni were a stranger, Rosen would definitely turn around and leave right now.

But she is the mentor's best friend, and she is in financial difficulties, so naturally she can't be tricked like this.

Therefore, Luo Sen took out three blue gold paper stubs of the Yuanyue Bank from his pocket, two with 500 credits, and one with 100 credits: "This is for you."

Gendroni looked confused: "Ah~ what does this mean, can't you spend too much money?"

"No, it was actually my mentor who asked me to hand it over to you. She said that she got a lot of help from you when she was in the most difficult time. Therefore, when you are in difficulty, she also hopes to give you some help."

Gendroni was immediately moved: "Oh~ my best friend Serrandis~~ But the money is too much, I still can't accept it."

"Please be sure to accept it. For you now, this may be a lot of money, but for my mentor, it is only a very small price, so don't refuse."

"If you say so, then fine."

Gendeloni happily accepted the blue-gold paper stub, and wanted to put it in her pocket, but she was afraid of getting the paper dirty, so she put it in her hand and looked left and right to admire it.

After watching for a while, I suddenly realized that Rosen was still there, and my face flushed with embarrassment: "Ah~~ I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's really rude to leave you here."

Rosen couldn't help but want to laugh, this is such a confused girl, don't be fooled in the future.

"I won't bother you, see you when you have time, and hope your business is booming."

"Oh~ ok ok, thank you for your kind words."

Rosen turned and walked out of the shop, and when he got outside the door, boarded the carriage, and looked out the window, he still found Gendroni standing there with a happy face admiring the bank stubs.

"This girl probably lacks a string in her brain."

But that's it, 1100 crowns should be enough for the opponent to gain a firm foothold in Silvermoon Castle.

"Joy~ Go back to Sunshine Xiaozhu."

"Yes, Master."

Sitting on the carriage, Rosen closed his eyes and sank into the table, observing the newly installed "Smelting Workshop".

Click to view and find that the workshop should not be called a program, but a function summary.

It is divided into three steps.

The first step is "Rosen's Spell Book", the second step is "Refining Rule Base", the third step is bifurcated into two paths, the left step is "Sorcery Virtual Machine", and the right step is "Start Refining ".

In other words, through this new program, Rosen can convert the spells he has learned into magical weapons through the refining rules he just obtained, and then enter the virtual machine for experimentation.

He tried it immediately, and found that not all spells could be converted into magic weapons, they had to be spells that conformed to the rules of refining weapons.

This ratio is not high, only about one-tenth.

In addition, these refining rules are all from Gendroni's spell book, there are a lot of them.

But Gendeloni is not a master craftsman after all, and the rules she has mastered are certainly not perfect, nor profound.

It can only be said that it is just getting started.

But despite this, it has greatly satisfied Rosen's needs for creating rune stones.

He tried to forge a rune stone, and then chose virtual magic.

For a moment, his eyes dimmed slightly, and when they lighted up again, he was in a virtual room.

The room is full of various refining tools, the shapes of which are exactly the same as the illustrations in Gendroni's spell book.

Then, Rosen felt that his body was pulled by some kind of force, and began to use these tools to forge rune stones automatically.

This feeling is familiar.

"Isn't this just picture printing?"

After a while, the rune stone was successfully forged.

Rosen took a closer look at the virtual finished product, and found that the rune stone was very precise, and there was no trace of manual processing at all.

Just like his paintings, it doesn't look like it was drawn by hand, but rather like something made by a high-precision machine tool.

The details are flawless, and there is a kind of aesthetic feeling that people can't put it down, and the charm is very unique. It is a kind of precision industrial beauty!

Rosen was very happy: "I'll go~~~ I can still do this."

Now he has another skill in eating.

When I was happy, I couldn't help thinking.

"My desktop can install new programs and output content. What kind of thing is it?"

He thought carefully about his past use experience, and recalled the process of his time travel.

"When time travelling, I was watching a video on the Internet, and when my eyes darkened and then brightened, I came over."

"This desktop is exactly the same as the computer desktop. Could it be that the computer came with me?"

"The programs on the desktop are not created out of nothing, but a kind of regularization of my ability to master. If I don't know, the desktop will not exist."

"No, there is one thing that I don't have, but the desktop does."

This thing is computing power, which is far beyond the logical computing power of ordinary human brains.

Whether it is super memory, or printing pictures, or refining equipment control, or virtual magic, there must be super powerful computing power behind it.

"So, the essence of my golden finger is actually a very high logical computing power!"

"Then if this is the case, can I activate a special calculator to help me calculate mathematical problems?"

After he elicited flow numbers, the amount of calculations required to develop new spells increased exponentially.

Sometimes, just trying to understand a few systems of nonlinear partial differential equations, there is an illusion of a brain explosion.

Maybe, but I don't know how to activate it.

"Well, I usually try to calculate more math problems. If I calculate too much, I guess I can install it."

Of course, just guessing like this, I don’t know if it will work.

"It's not in a hurry, let's explore slowly. As for now, let's buy some tools for making rune stones."

"We still have to create a batch of rune stones and send them to Xia Lina the day after tomorrow."

"I don't know what kind of clothes she ordered, but she has to muster up so much courage."
