A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees - Chapter 433:
Chapter 433: Do You Want To Borrow Money From Me?
Translator: Lonelytree
After seeing the details on the list, Matthew immediately understood that this was Soria’s plot.
It was placed in front of him.
It was not a consumption trap.
Moreover, it was a pie that fell from the sky!
It was just that this pie was too big, and there were too many of them.
If he forcefully ate it in one go, he would easily die from stuffing himself.
Spell construction.
This was an opportunity that every mage dreamed of. Just like Margaret had introduced earlier, if one wanted to solidify a certain spell into a construction through conventional training, they had to pay a very high price.
The first was the time cost. A training cycle was 14 to 24 days, and it usually took two to three training cycles to see results.
In other words, it would take at least a month to reach the initial goal.
A month might sound fast, but that was if the person trained day and night nonstop. The caster had to drain his magic power and mental strength to repeatedly cast the same spell.
This would also cause a great loss of a person’s will and mental strength. Next was the cost of materials. Training required a specific potion to be effective.
The most important one was a potion that could break the daily casting limit.
Take [Spell Awareness] as an example.
The material cost of this spell was about 25000 gold coins.
Compared to Soria Construction Spell, the price was only half.
Third, due to the excessive spell-casting one would have to do daily, there was a certain probability that the caster would contract ” spellcasting addiction.”
The cost of follow-up treatment for this illness was very high, and there was no special treatment method within the Alliance.
Therefore, there was usually a period of time between each training cycle, which indirectly increased the time cost.
However, this method was already a manifestation of the great progress of the magic civilization.
Before that.
A mage could usually only turn one spell into a quickcast ability in their entire life.
Moreover, most of them were common spells such as Mage’s Hand and Illumination.
However, it was different now.
The spells on the list in front of him could be easily obtained as long as he spent money.
50000 gold coins for one [Counterspell].
Matthew didn’t think it was expensive at all.
He even felt that it was ridiculously cheap!
Matthew took a deep breath, and his heartbeat gradually calmed down.
During this process.
The Temperance Domain was still calm.
This was enough to explain Matthew’s current state.
His brain was actually very calm.
It was just that Soria’s offer was too tempting, and there was a certain physiological reaction.
No wonder Soria was so confident and dared to say that she wanted to squeeze people dry. It turned out that she was sure that no one could refuse the things she gave!
Matthew looked up at Soria. “The price you give everyone is different, right?”
Soria smiled and said,
“You’re quite smart.
“If you are a 4th tier mage, the price on this list will double.
“If you were at tier 5, the price would triple.
“Legend tier is another price. Not only do I want your money, but you will also owe me a huge favour.
” To be honest, I have no intention of earning money from you, little Mages. This money is barely enough to cover the cost. My labour fees are all free.”
Matthew believed her.
Indeed, Soria had no intention of earning his money.
Her purpose was completely public.
She simply wanted to become everyone’s debt holder, including Matthew!
Therefore, she gave different prices to different groups of people. In any case, her goal was to squeeze your pockets dry and make you bear debts.
Matthew smiled bitterly in his heart.
He was actually a person who hated owing money.
“There’s no hurry. Take your time.”
Soria’s voice was very gentle. She sat opposite Matthew with her knees slanted and her hands elegantly holding a cup of coffee. Her actions and demeanour were very much like a tutor who was tutoring a student. Matthew bit his lip and began to think about what he needed.
A moment later.
He took out a pen and began to tick the list.
[ -Counterspell
-
- Body of Steel

-

Every spell he chose was carefully thought out.
Spell Rebound ” and ” Body of Steel ” were pure combat power. The former, together with Counterspell and ” Spell Void Barrier formed Matthew’s three abilities to deal with Mages.
The latter, along with the Undead Body, made Matthew a lot safer.
Instant Cast ” and ” Spell Upgrade ” were options with great potential. Their effects would increase with Matthew’s strength..
