Imperial Crown

Chapter 228 Void Mage

Raven's expression was very stiff.

If there were rumors of illegitimate children before the wedding...

"In this case, you don't have to stay in the Eagle Territory. I will arrange Simon to send you to Mon City and let Denise send someone..."

Petit waved her hand to defend herself: "No, Baron, I'm not pregnant!"

"You should have said it earlier!" Raven breathed a sigh of relief, and the color on his face returned: "What big deal could it be?"

Petit bit her lip: "It's the Congyun Kumquat. Last night, I followed your instructions and added some spring water mixed with magic crystal fragments to it, but it suddenly... withered!"

With the previous impact, this time it was not bad. Raven said in a deep voice: "Take me to see."

Soon, the two came to the laboratory.

The Congyun Kumquat was probably withered.

Its six bamboo-like branches became yellow and fragile, and the leaves and fruits on the top, which had already begun to take shape, were wrinkled, looking like they had been exposed to the sun for a month.

Raven walked forward and opened the Eye of Truth.

It was exactly the same as what was observed with the naked eye. There was no trace of life or energy flow in the whole plant.

"I'm sorry, Baron, it's all my fault..." Petty said tearfully: "...I am willing to accept any punishment from you!"

She was ready and aware of the punishment.

Raven had never treated her unfairly, especially today. Even if he misunderstood her pregnancy, he had no intention of killing her to silence her. Instead, he was considering her safety.

But the better Raven treated her, the more she was tormented at the moment.

During this period of time, she had made up a lot of knowledge related to alchemy and magic plant science, and knew how precious a cloud kumquat that had grown to this stage was. Now this third-level magic plant withered in her hands, and the guilt tortured her to the point of going crazy.

Raven sighed, but he didn't blame Petty.

Although too much magic power may destroy the roots of the magic plant, Congyun Kumquat is a third-level magic plant. Obviously, it will not suffer irreversible damage due to a small amount of first-level magic power. Even if there is, it will show up little by little, and it will not die suddenly.

Now I think that it may be that I was too smart and gave too many elements of different attributes, causing Congyun Kumquat to exceed its tolerance limit, which led to such a change.

Raven held its branches and prepared to pull it out: "It's okay, it's just a pot of magic plant, I..."

He stopped talking halfway because Raven suddenly found that the roots exposed from the soil were actually emitting a trace of...

Golden light!

He quickly stopped his action, took out a brush, and carefully polished the loose soil around the roots. Chestnut-sized golden fruits appeared in the soil.

The fruit was still connected to the dry roots of Congyun Kumquat. The grains were full and round. After the loose soil was removed, it looked like pure gold marbles, but it would change with the light, showing a rainbow-like dreamy color.

The most important thing is that if you look through the Eye of Truth, you will find that the energy contained in it is no different from the magic potion that has been refined, and it is even purer and more condensed than any of the ones that have been refined!

"Petti, hand me the book on the bookshelf at the back, quickly!"

Petty, who had been paying attention to Raven's actions, immediately took action and handed over the "Encyclopedia of Middles Magic Raw Materials".

Raven took the book, hugged Petty and kissed her hard:

"You always bring me good luck!"

Petty froze in place, and then burst into tears and laughed.

As expected, Raven did not find relevant records in the third-level magic plant, but found similar records in the subsequent "supplementary" part.

The supplementary part is the content compiled by the author from the legends of various places and races in the Middles continent. Many of them are absurd, but some have been verified to have existed.

It records a kind of fruit called "Spiritual Fantasy Fruit". It is said that anyone who eats it can become a magician!

Its true appearance should be Congyun Kumquat.

Looking at the fruit in his hand, the doubts that Raven had long hidden in his heart were solved - if you must take the magic potion to awaken to become a magician, then where did the first magician come from?

It's probably that the person with the potential of a magician ate this fruit and completed the awakening!

However, as time went by, the magical fruit slowly deteriorated into a cloud kumquat, so it needed to be mixed into a magic potion to maximize the potency!

And the Eye of Truth uses various magical elements to make the cloud kumquat revert to its ancestral state and turn it into a magical fruit again.

One, two, three...

A total of 21 magical fruits are enough to awaken 21 people with potential to become magicians!

How to use it...

Raven tapped his fingers on the table, and gradually had a clear idea in his mind.

"Petti, call Simon to see me."

One day later, the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce in the lower city of Mon'en City.

Denise sat in her bedroom on the third floor, wearing a light yellow silk nightgown.

She had just come out of the bathroom, leaning on a wooden couch, her hair hanging down the edge of the couch, with a little water running down from it.

Her two plump long legs were crossed, and her toes painted with purple nail polish made various shapes on the thin blanket on the couch.

Perhaps because the water temperature was a bit high, her exposed skin showed an attractive pink color, and her pajamas were wet with water, tightly attached to her plump body, making people want to guess the softness of it at a glance.

Holding a magic book in her hand, Denise quietly flipped through the contents, her slender fingers constantly sliding over it, with a faint smile on her lips.

Since she had this magic book, it has become much easier for her to handle affairs. Many contents can be left to her subordinates. Only key information needs to be handled by her personally.

But even so, she would never be so relaxed during the day. She had free time today because Raven gave her a gift.

The legendary "magic fruit" can awaken people to become magicians.

Rationally speaking, Denise didn't think she had any hope or possibility. After all, she was already 37 years old, and no matter what she did, it was too late.

If possible, she would rather give this opportunity to Vesdon.

The lack of a right arm may not be suitable for being a knight, but it doesn't matter so much for a magician.

Perhaps taking Denise's thoughts into account, Raven asked Simon to send two magical fruits this time, and specifically told him that if one was ineffective, there was no need to eat the second one.

As her hair gradually dried, Denise sat up, looked at the fruit in the box that was still changing colors, took a deep breath, twisted it and put it in her mouth.

When you open the peel with your teeth, the fruit explodes like a small tomato and fills your mouth with juice, but the taste is indescribable.

The juice flowed down her throat, and Denise felt her mind clearing up slightly, but when she paid attention to it, she didn't feel anything else.

"Ha, I knew it..." Denise shook her head and smiled bitterly.

Although she didn't have much expectations in advance, she was still a little disappointed when there was no response.

However, just as she stood up to change her clothes, her eyes suddenly went dark, and then a wave of heat rose up from her lower abdomen and spread again, as if there was a fire burning in her body!

"H-ha..."

Denise sat down slowly, her breathing began to become rapid, her already dry skin became covered with sweat again, and her loose hair stuck to her face.

But at this moment, Denise couldn't care less about her discomfort. She only felt that her body was gradually losing control. Everything around her was becoming more and more dull and void. Her consciousness seemed to be drowning in the sea, and everything she saw and heard was a blur. nothingness.

After an unknown amount of time, Denise felt something explode in her mind, and an unprecedented sense of fulfillment filled her, allowing her to regain control of her body.

Sitting up from the bed, Denise stared at her fingertips, which seemed to be smoother than before. Especially the callus on the middle finger of her right hand caused by long-term writing had completely disappeared and became extremely soft.

And when I think about it, my thinking is more active and clear than before. Many numbers that originally took a while to calculate are now easy to come by.

She stood up and walked to the floor-length mirror that Raven had given her. She looked at her face and skin that seemed to be ten years younger, and her eyes burst with uncontrollable joy:

"Could it be...successful!?"

A strange intuition suddenly appeared in her mind, giving her an impulse. Then the impulse turned into inexplicable syllables and blurted out. A ball of chaotic and void energy appeared in the palm of her hand, causing the surrounding light to begin to distort.

A smile spread across her lips, and joy flashed in her eyes.

It had been two years since she left the Eagle Territory. During this time, she had indeed made considerable achievements, but she still felt unsteady in her heart, because it meant that she and Raven were becoming more and more deeply bound.

She has no other thoughts, she just wants to be strong by nature and does not allow herself to rely solely on others to survive. She must have the ability to survive and develop on her own.

She doesn’t want to be a vine, she wants to be a tree.

As a woman, she envied Nancy, not because of her noble background, but because of her status as a magician, which represented the possibility of controlling her own life.

Now, she also has this power and has become a magician.

And judging from the information Raven gave her in advance, what she awakened was very precious and rare void magic!

With a smile on her lips, Denise changed her clothes, reported the good news to Raven through the magic book, and then came to the office in a happy mood.

But before he could sit down for long, the door opened with a bang.

"Mother!" Vesdon rushed in, his face full of impatience: "Can you give me your share of the magical fruit?"

"You failed?" Denise asked.

"Yeah..." Vesdon sighed: "What a bad luck!"

It should be said that Vesdon's luck has been really bad during this period of time. The car rental agency that Denise entrusted to him last time to test his skills went bankrupt under his "wise leadership" as expected. .

This also led to Denise's control over him becoming more and more strict, and there were not many opportunities to go out for drinks.

Now that I finally got the miraculous fruit, I had a great vision of becoming a magician in the future. However, after taking a sip, it had no effect and made me even hungrier.

"I have a big body, so maybe a miraculous fruit won't work. Give me yours and it will definitely work!"

Denise shook her head: "I really want to give it to you, but..."

A few syllables came out of her mouth, and the chaotic light ball appeared in her palm again.

Weston rubbed his eyes and scratched his eyebrows, then pinched his thigh hard and screamed:

"No, it's not a dream?"

He never thought that his mother had the potential to be a magician.

Magician, that’s a magician!

The most mysterious magician who can sit on an equal footing with the nobles and even be treated as a guest of honor!

But why can Denise become a magician, but he, as her son, cannot! ?

"Am I your biological child?"

Raven, who was far away in the Eagle Territory, certainly could not hear the wailing of Visdon.

After receiving the news from Denise, he was so excited that he opened the Deep Blue Platform and bought two first-level void magics, "Illusionary Light Bullet" and "Void Curtain", the former for attack and the latter for defense.

Although in principle, the magic purchased by each magician cannot be shared with anyone, but it is only a first-level magic, who would pay attention to it?

Raven has already made a distribution for this batch of 21 magical fruits, including 2 for Denise and Visdon, and 1 each for Old Gordon and Fiona.

Eric's son has been determined to have no talent for magic, but his daughter has not yet, so she can get 1; the remaining candidates are Volaf's daughter and Simon's sister, who have another 2.

There is also one for Polo.

If this former chef and current head of the Riverside Workshop could become a magician, he could be an important helper for Raven in enchanting.

The reason why they were not distributed immediately was because Raven was getting married soon and did not want to distract their attention at this time.

For the remaining 13 magical fruits, Raven planned to select some obedient and smart orphans, but this would require longer observation.

Time passed day by day, and it was mid-March.

The snow melted, and the Jinsha River ushered in the first flood season of spring.

During this period, as the magic book was delivered in batches, more and more users were used, the influence of the Sky Eagle platform became greater, and more and more nobles benefited from it.

According to Raven's statistics, among the 12 nobles in Xuefeng County, there were two with the highest profits, one was Baron Wessacine and the other was Viscount Broca.

Baron Wessacine's territory produced high-quality forage, but what really benefited him was the escort business.

In just 4 months, he took on 17 businesses, some large and some small, with a total income of up to 3,700 gold coins. On average, he could earn more than 200 gold coins per trip.

In addition, there is Viscount Broca. His territory is a genuine viscount territory. Although it is smaller than Raven's territory, it has less mountainous area and is more fertile. The products are extremely rich. Not only will it sell large quantities of food, seeds, cheap wine, and stone materials to the outside world.

Because he supports a second-level magician, his territory will export a large number of various enchanted arrows and crossbows.

Just through the Sky Eagle platform, Broca has a sales volume of only 3,732 gold coins in the first month. Starting from the second month, he has a monthly revenue of more than 8,000 gold coins.

"Viscount Broca..."

Raven muttered the name.

Meaningful.
