74. Sean's abacus

"What's wrong?" Cecilia was visibly woken up by Sean's loud laughter.

She rubbed her eyes, which were still a little sleepy, and then suddenly realized that she was actually sleeping on the soft skin of the cave demon worm, but she didn't scream because of this, only frowned slightly, and then quickly stood up and moved away from here. For a little girl, it is actually quite normal to be afraid of these things, but Cecilia also knows that if she wants to be a mercenary, she will inevitably encounter such things in the future, so she can only force herself to adapt as soon as possible.

Looking at the little panic that Cecilia was enduring strongly, Sean smiled and pinched Cecilia's cheek as she ran to his side.

Cecilia was very unhappy and reached out to pat Sean's hand away, and said angrily, "Don't put your dog paw on my face!" ”

"It's fun." Sean smiled as he handed the ring to Cecilia, "What do you see here?" ”

"It's ...... That magician's thing? Cecilia glanced at the ring, as a quasi-magician, she could feel the powerful magic flowing on the ring more than Sean, "But there is no elemental aura on it, and the diamond is also a gray jade crystal, it should be a magic ring of the arcane system, but I don't know what type of magic the Dao belongs to." It may take me a while to decipher it. ”

Magic Jewelry is a special item that is independent of jewelry, and its biggest feature is that it does not occupy the equipment slot.

Originally, in the game, a player's jewelry slot consisted of five equipment slots, including a necklace, two rings, and two bracers. Although the game does not restrict players from wearing a large number of jewelry, the only ones that can really play a role in stat bonuses are the five pieces placed in the equipment slot - even if a player wears a dozen necklaces or ten fingers and rings, the only ones that can really be used are a necklace and two rings.

Only Magic Trinkets do not occupy the jewelry slot, but they can still be useful. Of course, if you want this magic jewelry to work, you must know the password of this jewelry, and this is the real problem that plagued many players at the beginning, because the password of each magic jewelry is different, and players can only go to the old immortals of the magic guild if they want to know the password, which is naturally to be slaughtered fiercely.

Therefore, in the later period, many magicians took on a part-time job called "magic researcher", just to avoid being blackmailed by the magic guild.

Although Sean probably guessed that this would definitely be the case in this world, he didn't expect that Cecilia's life and career had already existed, and he was also a researcher of magic! No wonder Sean wanted Cecilia to be an alchemist many times, but Cecilia refused, after all, there can only be one life occupation.

Thinking of this, Sean checked Cecilia's profile again, this time there was one more display than before, and even the profession had changed!

[Name: Cecilia]

[Race: Human]

[Combat Class: Magician (3rd Order)]

【Life Occupation: Magician Researcher】

[Personal attributes-force: 4 (13); Stamina: 7 (16); Dexterity: 4 (14); Wisdom: 21+12 (31); Will: 24+15 (30)】

Glancing at Cecilia's attributes, there is no particularly big change, but the growth limit of wisdom and will has increased by one point each, and the current will has increased by two points.

After a little thought, Sean also understood, because Cecilia had just advanced, her magician level was only level one. Although the attributes have improved slightly, it is not very obvious, so there is no obvious change in the attributes in all aspects, presumably even Cecilia herself does not know that she is already a magician. As for the improvement of will, it should be related to her previous continuous maintenance of the fireball technique, after all, it is also very difficult to insist on this kind of thing, and the sequelae are not necessarily lighter than Sean suffering a mental shock.

Of course, if it weren't for this kind of continuous effort before, she would not have been able to break through the limits of her magic when she faced the magician of the Medusa Chamber of Commerce later.

But now, Sean doesn't plan to talk to Cecilia about it for the time being, and for the time being, let Cecilia continue to practice with the mentality of a magician apprentice until his attributes have improved significantly, and it's not too late to talk about it. As for the magic ring, although he knew what the magic password was, since Cecilia was going to study it, Sean didn't mind, anyway, it would take a day and a night before the ring could be used again.

At this moment, Sean turned his head to look at the eggs of those crypt ice spiders, and then said, "Do you know how to catalyze?" ”

"Catalysis?" Cecilia was still studying the ring, but when she heard Sean's words at this moment, she was obviously stunned, "What do you want to do?" ”

"The Crypt Ice Spider is a very good magical beast." Sean glanced at the spider eggs on the platform inside the cave before speaking, "Although this magical beast cannot survive on the surface, it does not mean that it is really useless, and many nobles like to use them to protect some basements or treasure rooms. …… Whether we use it ourselves or sell it, the price of Crypt Ice Spider eggs is definitely higher than that of Crypt Ice Spiders. ”

Hearing Sean's words, Cecilia immediately began to think.

She is a person from the Magic Empire, whether it is vision or others, far stronger than ordinary people, and it can even be said that although she is only thirteen years old now, she is not necessarily worse than Alfred, who used to be the head of the regiment, especially in the field of magic. Only people like Sean who have opened a cheat can compare her, and even if she is stronger than her, it is not because of domain knowledge, but because Sean has knowledge that people in this world cannot understand.

After a moment, Cecilia finally raised her head, and her eyes glowed with a strange light: "I see what you mean." The Crypt Ice Spider Egg is easier to control than the Crypt Ice Spider, so its price will be higher, and if we catalyze it and directly catalyze the Crypt Ice Spider Queen Egg, then its price will be higher. …… Just, do we have a chance to use it ourselves? ”

"What's the matter?" Sean chuckled, "The natural hatching period of the Crypt Ice Spider is as long as a year, and even if you conclude a contract with the Demon Beast and transform your own life force to provide it with it, there is still an incubation period of nearly a month. In other words, we can conclude a contract and not provide life force transformation, so we also have a year to arrange, and who knows what it will be like in a year? ”

"But crypt ice spiders don't dig burrows." Cecilia's brow furrowed slightly.

"That's what bothered me." Sean obviously also thought about a lot of things, "Actually, I personally prefer to conclude a Warcraft contract, so that we have a Warcraft that obeys us, which will be of great help to our future actions." ”

Cecilia looked at Sean with some confusion, not understanding the meaning of this sentence: "Could it be that in the future, our mercenary group stronghold will be underground?" If not, the Crypt Ice Spider has no value to us at all, and we might as well sell it for two watchdogs. ”

"The problem is, it's the Queen of the Crypt Ice Spiders." Sean said softly.

With just one sentence, Cecilia immediately came to her senses.

If it is a crypt ice spider, then whether they are used or sold, it is a one-time transaction. But if they can really breed a Crypt Ice Spider Queen, then the trade can become a long-term one, as they have a constant supply of goods. And what excites Cecilia the most is that she has never heard of anyone doing this, neither in her family nor in her empire, nor even in the history books, no one has ever done such a thing, which can create an unprecedented event, which is naturally extremely attractive to Cecilia as a magician.

After all, Cecilia is still a person who is used to thinking in terms of magical theory.

However, after calming down, Cecilia showed a look of confusion and asked curiously: "However, a high-level Warcraft like the Crypt Ice Spider Queen, the ordinary Warcraft contract can't work at all, can you really control it?" ”

"Of course." Sean smiled, "I happen to know a magical beast contract that can control the Crypt Ice Spider Queen. ”

Cecilia has always blindly trusted Sean's words, and she won't doubt anything else at all.

"I see." Cecilia nodded and said with a serious face, "However, the previous battle destroyed a lot of spider eggs, and I was a little worried that the catalytic amount was not enough. ”

The situation is exactly what Cecilia claims.

In the previous battle with the magician of the Medusa Chamber of Commerce, Cecilia's fireball technique had burned at least fifty spider eggs on the third-level platform, many of which had already been transferred to the second-level platform.

The catalytic process is not just to break the eggs and then pour the liquid on the other eggs, but to let these eggs get a buffer process of absorption, and then use this process to select those eggs with more potential and value to continue breeding. It takes time, but it also takes energy, and it's not just a matter of messing around. Therefore, Cecilia destroyed so many spider eggs before, which may have ruined most of the previous half a month's effort, and may even destroy a lot of spider eggs with great potential.

However, Sean has only heard of catalysis, and he actually doesn't know anything about it, so he can only rely on Cecilia in this regard.

"I'll take a look at the eggs at the bottom." After thinking about it for a while, Cecilia decided to start with the most essential steps, if there was a spider egg below that was close to becoming the queen of the crypt ice spider, then she would only need to cultivate this spider egg with all her might, and the rest would not matter.

Anyway, they don't need the Crypt Spider Queen - it's not that they don't need to, but they can't catalyze and breed it.
