Chapter 2 Excellent mage must be the devil's muscles
"Master, why are you still embarrassed to live?"
Through the iron railings of the detention room, the half-elf dressed in a white maid outfit said to Su Wen expressionlessly. Although she called the latter the master, there was no humility that the lower-ranking person should have in her words.
After seeing the girl appear, before Su Wen could react, the three half werewolf beside him whistled excitedly, as if they were afraid that the world would not be in chaos. Obviously, they were used to this kind of situation, and they all knew this half-elf girl in maid outfits - this was natural, because the number of times this girl came to prison to pick Su Wen was basically the same as that of Su Wen.
Su Wen skillfully ignored the questioning of his maid, stood up and walked towards the door of the cell. He understood that his "15-day" detention had ended: for the detention penalty that was not serious, after paying enough deposit, the penalty time could even be shortened from one month to 10 minutes. However, when it was calculated, it was probably evening now, so Su Wen was still somewhat dissatisfied.
"Litsisia, you should have picked me up five hours ago, not now," he said. "Because of your passive slack, I missed classes again in Magic Academy, which is not good."
"I'm really sorry, my master." The half-elf Liticia immediately lowered her head and apologized to Su Wen softly, but her white and beautiful face was filled with calmness. "This is because two of the underwear I washed yesterday disappeared. I spent a lot of time to find them, so I delayed taking you out. But I still haven't found them until now - do you know where they went?"
“Um…”
Su Wen pondered for a moment, then replied with a smile.
"I think it must have been taken away by the mouse. This is common. Just go back and buy a new one."
Speaking of which, one of the two pairs of underwear was severely deformed, and they should now be kept in the evidence room in the judgment hall as evidence. Although they can be paid a certain fine to retrieve it, Su Wen obviously has no such intention.
After leaving the prison, the sky outside was indeed completely dark, and it was already night and the streets were dim.
Su Wen walked silently behind Liticia. The atmosphere in the air was so quiet that it seemed to be about to solidify. Only when passing the towering magic street lights next to the street, the long reflections cast continued to stretch and change.
"That, Liticia..."
"Please don't talk to me, it will be contagious if you change your condition."
The half-elf girl immediately interrupted Su Wen's conversation without looking back. Her steps were getting faster and faster, and she quickly threw Su Wen away a small piece.
“…”
Su Wen was bored and had to sigh and didn't catch up.
He knew very well that if he had the ranking of the people who hated him the most in the world, then the first one would undoubtedly be the Knight of Judgment Gorestan, and the second one was the half-elf maid who was gradually moving away in front of him.
Yes, from the day Su Wen spent 500 gold coins to buy Liticia back at the underground auction house, the girl who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old had never given him a good look. Su Wen knew that this was probably because she was too notorious in Trides City, but while she had to accept her fate, he was still somewhat frustrated by the girl. Moreover, as Su Wen knew, Liticia seemed to be planning to save money to redeem herself recently, and when she thought of this, Su Wen felt sad.
Su Wen's time is very precious. In addition to his daily study as a magic apprentice, he even had three or five hours of prison time every day. Although most of them were because Liticia deliberately delayed and refused to take over people, no matter what, he could never waste his time on trivial matters such as cleaning. Therefore, if he left Liticia, he would probably return to the tragic situation of a pig's nest half a year ago. Su Wen couldn't help but think that if it weren't for the damn system that caused his maid to have no good feelings for him, perhaps his current situation would be better, at least the latter wouldn't find a way to leave his "claws"?
But Su Wen immediately shook his head and denied this.
Because without the system, Liticia would not have become his maid from the beginning.
Arrived home.
Su Wen's home is a very ordinary residence. Trides City has almost the strictest laws in the Northern Continent, but its benefits are also particularly generous. Especially after Su Wen obtained the fake citizenship certificate of the city through certain channels, he was even assigned to a double-storey residence for free... Well, although this residence has a history of nearly 150 years, the mottled walls are full of cracks and may collapse at any time.
In the living room, the half-elf maid who had already returned home was driving a sewing truck and textile clothes, which was her main source of income. Su Wen had seriously considered whether to break it, and then let Liticia never get 500 gold coins to redeem it, but later he felt that if he really did that, he would probably be hated by Liticia for the rest of his life. Although Su Wen was not afraid of being hated, it would be not good if the food was poisoned, so he didn't do that.
Without trying to say hello to the busy Liticia, Su Wen went straight into his room.
When he was not forced to transform into a deformed state, Su Wen was very busy. For example, he had not completed the graduation thesis of the Magic Academy, and today's training plan had not been completed yet. For example...
"Ding! The daily refresh time of the redemption system has arrived. Can you please check out the new redemption products?"
"Take it up."
Soon, a bunch of strange things appeared in front of Su Wen.
‘The branches that looked inconspicuous, the dull silver ring, the smooth and beautiful light blue stones… Well, these three were eliminated first.’ Su Wen stretched out his finger and gestured a few times, and the exchange items that only had names and no introductions slowly disappeared.
Don't worry, the branches that look inconspicuous are definitely not branches of sacred trees. There is no possibility of creatures like the old man in the silver ring. The light blue stones are either glass products or beautiful pebbles by the river. In short, after being deceived by the system a few times, Su Wen can already be sure that these mysterious things are no different from their introduction, and they are completely a trick of deceiving people by the redemption system.
As for other relatively normal exchange items, their introduction is much more reliable. Su Wen looked at them one by one, and his attention was quickly attracted by a dagger.
"Excellent electric daggers, excellent quality, attack power of 3-16, low weapon strength, high attack speed, and enchantment: tearing enchantment (low level. When hitting the target, the dagger will produce a certain tearing effect and increase lethality.); sharp enchantment (low level. This enchantment will keep the sharpness of the dagger without frequent polishing, and at the same time increase the toughness of the knife edge and reduce the probability of the curling blade.); paralysis enchantment (intermediate level. When triggering the tearing effect, the dagger will release an electric shock effect with a strength equivalent to two thousandths of the standard fireball technique, causing temporary paralysis and light burns)."
After reading the introduction, Su Wen took a deep breath. He even wondered if he had read it wrong. The redemption system, which has always been famous for cheating, actually produced such practical props. It was really incredible.
However, when Su Wen's eyes continued to move down until he saw the 4,000 exchange points on the price, he finally couldn't help but curse inwardly.
"Sure enough, I shouldn't have expected anything from the system!"
Su Wen gritted his teeth.
It’s not that the price of 4,000 exchange points is very expensive. You should know that in the glorious continent, any weapon related to "enchant" is destined to be inlaid with magic gems, which means that its value is bound to be very valuable. Although this enchanted dagger is not as powerful as a shocking place, the extremely rare triple enchantment is enough to make it sell thousands of gold coins in underground auction houses, not to mention that there is a powerful intermediate paralysis enchantment among these three enchantments - according to Su Wen's estimate, if you package it well and operate it, the dagger can even be fryed to nearly ten thousand gold coins.
That's ten thousand gold coins! You can buy a house in the center of Trides for ten thousand gold coins, a small magic aircraft, a lot of powerful magic scrolls, and 20 Liticias... Well, although it seems inappropriate to use Liticia as a reference unit, it's enough to prove its crazy value!
Su Wen looked at the dark-colored dagger and felt that his saliva was almost flowing down.
But……
4257, this is all the redemption points Su Wen currently has.
If he made up his mind and gritted his teeth and bought this dagger, then not to mention the more than 10,000 yuan he owed, he would almost start to accumulate again. The key is that if something unexpected happened during this period, he would not even have enough points to save his life!
To make money with destiny, you have to spend it with destiny!
After careful thinking, Su Wen finally reluctantly ruled out this dagger.
“What a pity…”
Su Wen said to himself.
"...The inferior bamboo dragonflies (disposable items) can fly upward slowly for a height of 10 meters, and exchange points for 50 points; the low-level flash scroll bursts out a large amount of light when activated, causing the creatures in the range to be temporarily blind (only effective for creatures with mental power below 190), 200 points for redemption; the ancient copper coins of the glorious continent, antiques, 250 points for redemption; the Fireball Magic Book, after use, you can master the method of releasing the Fireball Magic. Use conditions: above the low-level magician, 998 points for redemption..."
Su Wen looked down one by one and found that there was nothing in this batch of redemption items that could attract his attention. He knew in his heart that the value of the props at this stage was only for gold coins, and except for the extremely attractive dagger, the value of other redemption items was probably less than 100 gold coins. As a magician apprentice and profession, Su Wen's daily expenses were very large, such as paying fines and deposits.
After confirming that there is no oil and water available for fishing for today's redemption system, although I always feel that something is wrong, Su Wen still decisively turned off the redemption panel.
"Then, start training!"
After saying that, Su Wen took off his shirt from his upper body, revealing his bronzed skin and streamlined muscles, and then began his daily weightlifting and push-up training. Although he was an apprentice of the magician, his body outline was full of strength and beauty after a long and strict training. The not-so-strong muscles seemed to contain huge energy. Coupled with his cheerful short hair and a pretty face, no stranger would associate him with the "Shame of Trides".
Two hours later...
“1997…1998…1999…completed!”
Two thousand push-ups in a row almost took the energy of Su Wen. After the last time he plunged into the floor, he had no more effort to get himself up.
"Dong!"
Suddenly, the sound of heavy objects being placed on the ground came from behind him. Su Wen turned his head weakly, and then saw a bucket of steaming bath water and the back of Liticia leaving the room.
The exhausted Su Wen laughed foolishly.
Well, whenever this happens, he will feel that his five hundred gold coins is special: if he is allowed to get up and take a shower by himself in this state, it will be a torment. However, just as Su Wen struggled to climb towards the wooden barrel and planned to enjoy the shower after fatigue, his gaze was suddenly attracted by the thick manuscript paper at the desk. This manuscript paper is a heraldic rice paper unique to the Magic Academy in Trides City. They have been specially treated with magic pool water and have certain magical conductivity. They are usually used to make low-level magic scrolls or as manuscript papers for graduation thesis, which is expensive.
Then, Su Wen's face slowly turned into pig liver color.
Chapter completed!
