Lord of Arcane

Chapter 398
Xia Duo walked around the Silver Light Tower several times, and finally found only one shop selling magic items, and the magic items in this shop were very rare.

There were only a few pieces, and the aura of magic was very dim. Xia Duo couldn't help but wonder, could this city really be in decline to such an extent?
But when he thought about the training sword in his hand, although it was not as good as [Blade of Negation], it was undeniable that it was indeed a magic sword, and other apprentices in the training camp also had the same magic sword.

Even a group of war orphans can distribute standard magic swords, so there shouldn't be one or two shops selling boutiques in the city, right?
Xia Duo suddenly discovered that he was quite unfamiliar with this city. In the memory of "Ruen", he hardly had much memory about Silver City, but the name of another city was particularly clear.

"Emanstacia!"

After searching the memory carefully, the name is still the same name, but the further memory is very vague. Only by seeing the scene of the city in person can further memory be stimulated.

Although there is no clear memory, a vague comparison can still be made. Although Amansteria is still not as good as the previously projected Sukan Visa City, it is far superior to the current Silver City.

"That's right!"

If the elven kingdom is half-dead like the current Silver City, how can they suppress Netheril in the future!
Of course, the current Silver City may not be in decline as Xia Duo saw, and there may be other reasons, but in Ryan's memory, Xia Duo did not find the answer.

From the perspective of a bystander, it is difficult for Xia Duo as a human to understand such a situation.But Xia Duo is not planning to become an elfologist, he just needs to know his goal.

time, and knowledge.

Now that he found a shop selling magic items, Xia Duo was going to ask the shopkeeper directly about the origin of Mithril. Anyway, it was impossible for the other party to think that there would be a human consciousness hidden under his elf skin.

Moreover, his current identity as a minor elf can also be used as a disguise and an advantage. Xia Duo first walked around the shop a few times, and finally stopped at a belt with mithril patterns.

He originally wanted the shopkeeper to take the initiative to greet him, and then he asked questions, but after turning around a few times, the shopkeeper still didn't respond at all, and just polished the small wooden carving in his hand, as if Xia Duo didn't exist at all.

"cough--"

Xia Duo coughed lightly, but still failed to attract the other party, so he could only take the initiative to ask, "Uncle, did you make this belt?"

"En." The shopkeeper responded casually, but his eyes still did not leave the small wood carving in his hand.

"Is the pattern on it Mithril?" Xia Duo asked again.

The owner's polishing action stopped at this moment, and he turned his head to look at Xia Duo, "Little guy, are you interested in that light belt? Here it is for you!"

"Give it to me?!"

Xia Duo was a little surprised, the pie fell from the sky just after leaving the house?But what he really wants is not the belt, but the method of refining Mithril, he is very clear about his goal.

So he said: "Uncle, this is very expensive, I can't accept it, I just want to ask if the pattern on it is Mithril."

Now it was the shopkeeper's turn to be surprised, "Take it, this belt is nothing to me, and besides, it is indeed Mithril."

"That's great!" Xia Duo couldn't help but feel tired of the elf's childish voice, but the role-playing still had to continue. He took out the mithril flower that he took out from the portable space in advance, and showed it to the shopkeeper, while excitedly Said, "Then this is also Mithril?"

The shopkeeper glanced at it and gave an affirmative answer, "Yes! It is indeed Mithril."

So, Xia Duo looked very happily holding Mithril Flower to look left and right, and then pretended to ask casually: "Uncle, do you know how Mithril came from?"

"Mithril is of course dug out of the ground."

Xia Duo's eyes glowed, and this time he wasn't pretending. He asked excitedly, "Uncle, where can I dig Mithril? Can I dig it?"

"Ha ha!"

Seeing such a curious young junior, the shop owner couldn't help smiling heartily. He thought that he was also like this when he was young, full of curiosity about the world around him.

"Little guy, you can't dig a few times with your small body, and the mithril has to be refined to become the shiny silver you see now. There is a mithril mine underground in Silver Light City. If you want to get For Mithril, let’s grow up quickly.”

Underground of Silver Light City?Mithril mine?For the first time, Xia Duo felt that he was so close to the mithril refining technology. If he could really get it and bring it back to the main plane, then he would really send it!
It may not be realistic to use it by yourself. After all, there is no Mithril mine in the territory, and outsourcing can easily arouse suspicion from others.But if you hand it over to the princess, or the Austrian Law Federation, you will definitely get a huge reward.

Of course, Xia Duo prefers to keep it for himself. If he hands it over, he may be assassinated by elves or dwarves the next day. After all, the benefits of Mithril trade are too great.

But at this moment, the method of refining mithril is just around the corner, Xia Duo suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked: "Uncle, do you know how to refine mithril?"

Although the question was a bit strange, the shop owner did not doubt it, just as if the aliens asked the earthlings how glass is made, although it was a bit strange, it was impossible to suspect that the questioner was an alien.

"Little guy, this question is difficult for me. There is a very complicated process for refining mithril. I only know that it needs to be ore-selected first, then smelted, and finally it needs to be processed by magic. You will know the details when you grow up."

"..."

At this moment, in Xia Duo's heart, there are ten thousand muddy horses galloping past, don't you still not know when you grow up to be like you!

It might be a bit garish to ask any more questions, but fortunately, he now knows that the refining method is not a very secret technology in this era.

After chatting with the shopkeeper for a while, Xia Duo left. Of course, he still took the [Light Belt] in the end, because the shopkeeper insisted that Ryan's family sacrificed for the country as a reason and insisted that he accept it.

Walking out of the shop, Xia Duo looked back at the shop owner who was already addicted to his own world. The other party had already recognized his identity. It seemed that war orphans received a lot of preferential treatment.

Racists are still a minority.

Then Xia Duo tried to enter the Silver Light Pagoda again, but was stopped by patrolling soldiers on the grounds that he had not obtained permission.

This is more troublesome!
If there really is a mithril mine underground in Silverlight City, then Xia Duo is sure that it has something to do with the Silverlight Pagoda, and the method of refining the mithril may also need to be found in the Silverlight Tower.

But he just couldn't get in!
"Permission, permission!"

Xia Duo repeated this sentence repeatedly, thinking of an elf.
