Book of the Otherworld

Chapter 286 The Book of the Soul
"Hey, look! There's a book seller over there." Sylvia said excitedly.

Sure enough, there was a sign [Selling various magic books] in front of a stall in a relatively remote corner of the market.

He hurried over, and the owner of the stall was an old summoner, who looked about five or sixty years old, with gray hair, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and a pedantic air.

"Hello." Xing Tianyu greeted, "I am Shadow, and this is Scarlet Witch."

"I'm a professor." The old man said with a smile. "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Do you sell magic books here?"

The old man nodded, "I sell all kinds of magic books here, and I also accept all kinds of magic books."

Xing Tianyu said, "I want to ask, is there any spiritual magic?"

"Psychic magic? Let me look for it," the professor said while rummaging through the pile of books, and finally found a book under a stack of books.

It was a hardcover book with a green cover. The cover had complex decorative patterns and a beautifully written title. It looked very old, and what made Xing Tianyu speechless was that he couldn't understand the title at all.

The professor turned a few pages, "That's right, it's this book, the Book of Mind, which records eighteen mind spells, written in the lingua franca of the Atlantis world. the language of the Sri Lankan world?"

Xing Tianyu was pleasantly surprised, and said in his heart that he finally found it. Of course, he didn't show it, but shook his head slightly, "No way."

"It doesn't matter," the professor said and took out another book, "I have "A Quick Course in the World's Common Language of Atlantis" here, or you can ask someone to cast a spell for you, such as a proficient language.

Sylvia was next to him without saying a word, and threw a fluent language on Xing Tianyu. In the next second, Xing Tianyu found that he could understand the words in that book. It really was "Book of Mind"

"Then what's the price?"

"It's not expensive, the "Book of the Mind" only costs 500 ancient coins, and as for the "Intensive Language of the World of Atlantis", I can give it to you for free.

Xing Tianyu thought it was so expensive, "Can it be cheaper?"

"This is not good, you know, knowledge is priceless."

"However, you can print a magic book into many copies and then sell it, so wouldn't you be able to make a lot of money?" Sylvia couldn't help but said.

The professor shook his head, "You're thinking too simply. You know, there are less than 100 summoners in total, and there are even fewer people learning magic books like mind magic. I haven't sold them for several years. After going out, this thing is charged more and sold less, so the price is naturally more expensive, and all magic books are basically a one-off sale, basically everyone will only buy one at most, and sometimes even , there will be a situation where a few people buy a copy. The business of my book is really hard to do. I can’t sell a few copies in every gathering, and I can’t sell it to ordinary people, so the price is really cheap. .”

Xing Tianyu thought about it for a while and said that it made some sense, but he didn't plan to spend money to buy it. Although it would be enough to add up his and Sylvia's money, the problem was that things didn't work that way, but luckily he There are other ways. "By the way, do you want to realize your wish? If I can fulfill your wish, how much do you think it is worth?"

The professor pondered, "Wish fulfillment? What do you mean?"

"Praying Spirit, have you heard of it?" Xing Tianyu beckoned, and Borabbi flew to his shoulder immediately. "As long as you are willing to give me the book for free, I can make her fulfill your wish."

The professor looked at him with a half-smile, shook his head and said, "If your wish can come true, why don't you just wish to get what you want? Young man, there must be some reason for this?"

Xing Tianyu didn't intend to hide it, he didn't intend to make enemies among the summoners, so naturally he didn't intend to deceive people, "Of course, the wish to pray for the spirit is not as powerful as the wish of the lamp god. First of all, this wish must be It can be realized, but the way of realization is uncontrollable. You must consider all kinds of possibilities. Since the wishing spell of the wishing spirit is limited, if the wish you make is too difficult, the wish will be expressed in a distorted way. Fulfillment, of course, even if your wish is normal, but if it is too complicated, there may still be unknown results. Basically, you can treat this wish as a word game, and we can deal with the wish. You don’t take any responsibility for the result, so you have to think carefully before deciding whether to make a wish, and what kind of wish you plan to make.”

He was a little apprehensive at first, thinking that the other party would definitely reject him if he said so.

Unexpectedly, after thinking about it, Professor Nana's eyes lit up, "Interesting, I've heard of this way of wishing, but this is the first time I've encountered it, let me think about it, okay, I agree, I can use the magic book I will exchange this wish with you, but you have to add an extra 200 ancient coins. After all, this wish is so unreliable that it is not worth 500 ancient coins, and I can only hand over the book of mind after I make a wish and fulfill my wish. Here it is, if my wish can't come true, don't even think about getting a penny cheaper."

Xing Tianyu thought about it, but he could accept it. For the sake of his own spiritual magic, 200 ancient coins are still available.

"Don't worry, your wish will definitely come true. But remember, I don't guarantee the way your wish will come true, so you must think about your wish." Xing Tianyu's warning is very obvious, after all, he doesn't want to get into trouble Enemies, he has enough enemies now, and the summoners are his only allies.

The professor nodded. He frowned and thought hard for a while, and even took out a pen and paper to deduce several times. Just when Sylvia was a little impatient, he finally nodded, "Okay, I've decided I want to make a wish."

He looked at Borabi, "I hope to get 1000 ancient coins, at about one o'clock this afternoon, in a way that makes people envious but does not feel any suspicion, and getting these ancient coins will not let I get into any trouble."

Borabbi's eyes widened when he heard the professor's wish, "1000 ancient coins, is this your wish? Grandpa, isn't your wish too conservative?" Borabbi said persuasively, "It's better to exchange One wish, as much as 1000000 ancient coins."

"No, 1000 is enough. This is the most suitable number I have calculated, neither too much nor too little, and there will be absolutely no sequelae. If there is no problem with my calculation, I can have no worries get the money."

"Well, if you insist on this." Borabi seemed a little disappointed, but he waved his hand at the professor, "Okay, your wish has been fulfilled, and given the type of your wish, it will come to you within 24 hours. completed within."

The professor nodded, "Then, after my wish is fulfilled, I will hand over this "Book of Mind" to you, let's wait and see, don't worry, this island is so big, I can't do it before the summoner assembly left."

Xing Tianyu was very curious about how these 1000 ancient coins would appear in the hands of the professor. You must know that most of the time, the wishing elf cannot conjure physical objects out of thin air, she can only change the operation rules of things, and he is still very Curious, why this professor is so confident that he can get 1000 ancient coins without any worries. You must know that he has clearly explained the negative effects of the wishing spirit's wishing technique before.

But anyway, it may take some time before the wish comes true. He discussed with Sylvia, and the two of them simply set up a booth first. There was an empty booth next to the professor's booth. He took the potions he brought, I took it out of the box and put it on the stall, and then hung a sign [Selling various medicines, wishing the elves' wishes for 200 ancient coins once].
