[Skill Point 45 → 44]
The ability of 'Scroll Production' appeared in the Class Skill section.
...
Skill: Scroll Production
Consumption: 1-3 Low-Tier Scrolls / 5 Mana (Mana consumption doubles every three ranks)
Description: Can convert corresponding materials into blank Magic Scrolls of the corresponding tier (requires a significant amount of materials and mana).
...
Tang Zheng looked at the skill information on the panel, his eyes gleaming slightly.
Unexpectedly.
The Scroll Production technique was acquired so easily! For this kind of scroll-making technique that has clearly been modified by humans themselves and is more adaptable, the disadvantage of "higher material and mana consumption" is not a problem for Tang Zheng.
Just like the 'Apothecary' ability, lacking higher-level herbs and materials from the game, it is naturally impossible to create high-tier potions.
And relying on Skill Points to improve the rank of 'Papermaking', Tang Zheng can be completely self-sufficient in terms of materials, and the only thing he needs to consider is the problem of mana.
"This should be a Second-Tier Magic Scroll, right?" Tang Zheng suddenly asked.
"That's right."
The middle-aged Magic Caster first looked at Bello Rui Master on the side, and when he found that his always-rigid teacher had no intention of stopping him, he was surprised and took the initiative to explain,
"Magic Scrolls made of normal sheepskin can only handle First-Tier magic, but Second-Tier magic won't work."
"This requires combining sheepskin with paper made using Second-Tier 'Papermaking' to create the Magic Scroll."
Tang Zheng's face showed a look of understanding, and he curiously looked at the light golden liquid that had just been used to soak the paper: "What is this liquid?"
Having the technique to create Magic Scrolls is not enough! He also needs the skills and methods to inject magic into the scrolls.
He has no interest in taking a caster who can probably only use Third-Tier magic as his teacher. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tang Zheng naturally wants to acquire the technique of making Magic Scrolls as much as possible.
The middle-aged Magic Caster subconsciously glanced at his teacher again, and found that the other party was holding the Magic Scroll he had just made and examining it, still ignoring what was happening here.
"It's a magical solution that maintains mana stability."
This time, the middle-aged Magic Caster's expression towards Tang Zheng was full of goodwill, and even his voice became a little gentler.
He originally thought that the reason his teacher brought this black-haired young man here was simply because of his somewhat extraordinary identity.
But now it seems! He must have caught the teacher's eye.
"The learning difficulty of Second-Tier 'Papermaking' is far greater than that of other magic of the same tier."
"Due to various factors such as the strength of the caster's mana and their level of proficiency, the amount of mana contained in the paper produced varies more or less."
"Therefore, when making Magic Scrolls, it is easy to cause mana instability, leading to failures and even some dangers."
"This requires this magical solution to stabilize it."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man looked at Bello Rui Master with a flattering expression, subtly brown-nosing: "Only the teacher can create perfect Second-Tier paper that doesn't require the assistance of a magical solution."
So that's how it is!
Tang Zheng's interest immediately waned when he heard the effect of the light golden magical solution. At the same time, a look of pity appeared in his eyes as he looked at the middle-aged Magic Caster in front of him.
This flattery backfired.
In the front hall, the rigid old man examined the Second-Tier paper he had made and pretentiously commented, "This level is considered excellent among his disciples."
Now it seems that he was simply trying to elevate himself.
His own Second-Tier 'Papermaking' should be at the same level as Bello Rui Master's 'Papermaking'.
Of course.
This is thanks to the "Player" ability and has nothing to do with him personally, but that doesn't prevent the result from being the same.
No wonder he didn't even ask for his detailed information and directly asked him if he was interested in becoming his disciple.
Sure enough.
As soon as the middle-aged Magic Caster's voice fell, Bello Rui Master, who was examining the Magic Scroll, paused his movements.
"How many blank Magic Scrolls is this that have been made today?" Bello Rui Master raised his head, staring expressionlessly at the middle-aged Magic Caster.
"Se... Second one."
The middle-aged Magic Caster seemed to sense that the atmosphere was a bit off, and stuttered slightly.
"Only two made in such a long time?"
"Since you're being so lazy, clean up this entire place." Bello Rui Master said calmly.
The middle-aged Magic Caster was a bit bewildered and aggrieved: "Huh?"
Making Magic Scrolls wasn't too troublesome, but the process of selecting paper with similar Mana content, preparing the magic solution, and restoring Mana all took time.
"Do I need to repeat myself?" Bello Rui Master narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, Teacher!"
The middle-aged Magic Caster didn't dare to argue, and quickly turned and left.
His little thoughts had been unexpectedly exposed.
Bello Rui Master's wrinkled face didn't show any change in expression, and he continued to speak calmly and naturally: "This is the process of making Magic Scrolls."
After saying that.
Bello Rui Master continued to walk deeper inside, but his pace seemed noticeably faster.
Under the other party's lead.
Tang Zheng followed him into a slightly dim and crowded room.
That's right!
"Crowded" was the word to describe it.
At a glance, the entire room was actually about 100 square meters, with nearly 1/3 of the area filled with dense bookshelves.
On the wall directly opposite the door, hung a huge ancient map, with a thick mountain range in the middle that seemed to divide the entire map in two.
This is...
A map of the Re-Estize Kingdom and the Bahharuth Empire?
Tang Zheng saw the prominent Angelicia Mountain Range terrain and this thought flashed through his mind.
In addition to that.
Many strange items were piled up in various places in the room, some were stone tablets, and some seemed to be parts taken from some kind of building.
The rest were various notes, scrolls, and animal skins of different colors.
Tang Zheng even saw a complete adult Evil Spirit Dog pelt in the corner, no wonder the other party didn't care when he saw the Small Evil Spirit Dog.
These things filled every corner of the room, making the entire space feel extremely cramped.
"I know you have many questions in your mind right now."
"Don't rush, sit down and let's talk slowly."
After entering the room, Bello Rui Master's serious, rigid, and even slightly harsh expression faded a lot, and a hint of fatigue appeared between his brows.
Tang Zheng didn't act polite either, walked to the opposite side of him, and sat down together.
Bello Rui Master was briefly stunned, then chuckled: "That's good too, talented people must be different from mediocre people."
