This is Mogan's treasure house and his greatest secret.
Under the candlelight, the box full of gold coins was so dazzling that it could almost blind one's eyes.
Mogan checked the quantity and weight, and then closed the lid after confirming that there were no changes.
The treasures in the box are all the savings he has gradually gained over the past five years.
The ability to make money with money is engraved in Mogan's bones, and as a magic half-dragon, he has no shortage of power to deal with coveters and obstacles. Because of this, the transactions and investments during the five years of leisurely travel allowed Mogan to accumulate a considerable amount of money.
Such a box of treasure is enough to provide an ordinary person or even an entire family with a lifetime of prosperity, wealth, and food and clothing. But the problem is that just this level of wealth cannot be said to be better than nothing for Mo Gan, but it is not enough, or far from enough.
In addition, a single gold coin can make Mogan put it down not only because of its beautiful shape or color, but also because of the value contained in it. But when one became two, three, or even a whole box, the sincere joy he had hidden in his heart gradually deteriorated, and pure love could not cover up the worries in his heart.
Morgan's calmness stems from desire. He didn't want to be petty and lose big, so he forced himself to maintain the most rational state at all times. Although he occasionally lost control, he could recover as quickly as possible to minimize the risk.
But as his property gradually accumulated, Mogan could no longer carry all his belongings with him, and they became a burden.
Like many other dragons who value treasure, M'gann needs a place to hide his treasure.
But as a businessman who needs to travel around, he cannot just dig a cave on the spot, and then guard his precious gold coins anytime and anywhere, show his minions to all coveters, and then spread a "Legend of the Evil Dragon" to guard the treasure. ". It is precisely because of this that he needs absolute confidentiality and the help of an appropriate amount of magic to achieve his staged goals.
The natural environment of the site, the degree of concealment and the defense measures are all important.
In order to build a perfect base, Mogan repeatedly screened and found the town of Windsor as an apparently available residence, and chose this place that was not far or near. He worked on the prototype of the giant dragon for several days, hollowing out almost the entire mountain and burying the earth and rocks in places where they were not easily found between the mountains and the sea, leaving only the thickness of the rock that was calculated to be able to bear load and withstand natural disasters.
Later, through records in some magic books, he also prepared corresponding materials.
Mo Gan first took out two refined black tree stumps, and at the same time returned to the door with a jar of cold branch grass potion.
As the spell was cast, two black tree stumps were buried in the soil at the entrance of the cave. And before the final touch, before covering the last touch of soil with magic, Mogan opened the special potion jar containing the cold branch grass potion.
He divided a spoonful of medicine into two parts and guided them respectively to the top of the black tree stump through the bright moonlight.
What really makes the fusion of ink horn and ebony, two materials that have no common basic properties, is the soft and catalytic moonlight. You only need to wait long enough or inject enough magic at once. Finish.
But I don't have that much time to fuse the cold stick grass potion, just because the potion itself needs to be stored in the potion jar, and the magic will easily be lost naturally. To achieve the goal, one can only rely on the blessing of the full moon on the spot for rapid refining and fusion.
Although the cold stick grass potion tried this time did not solve the fundamental problem, it was slightly different from when asking Lucifer.
Although there is no difference in material quality, the mixture this time not only contains the basic cold branch grass and licorice liquid formula, but also adds the result of Mogan's several days of coming to Aunt Sera to ask for flower petals, and the additional magic added There are also distinctions.
Morgan used magic spells mentioned in the book to preserve the essential oils and activity in the ordinary petals during the extraction process. When a large amount of this active substance was mixed into the Hanzhicao potion to dilute it, the situation changed. The original sensitive reaction of the Hanzhicao potion no longer transmits signals of magical fluctuations indiscriminately, but instead limits its large-scale effects to plants.
At the same time, the ordinary plant scent mixed in can also largely prevent the fluctuating special scent and will not attract the attention of others.
In addition, what Mogan added in advance to the Hanzhicao potion this time is precisely the "counter-spell" of blood magic.
In other words, contrary to the situation where the cold stick grass magic potion is triggered when others come, now it is Mogan's blood that will cause abnormal magic fluctuations, but it will not cause any changes when others come.
Mo Gan took out a few more sets of materials from the cave and looked around.
Based on what he saw before taking off, he quickly determined that there was no problem with the previously selected path. Taking off again, Mogan landed at various locations and repeated the previous process, skillfully burying the black tree stumps and the special cold branch grass potion throughout the valley.
It takes the longest to complete these, but Mogan has already previewed it and is very fast.
Finally, he took out the most expensive part of all the processes.
There are a total of thirty special-grade stone essences, and the market price is usually ninety gold coins.
Mogan started planning to build such a base a year ago, and the site selection was completed a few months ago.
In order to prevent future troubles and ensure that the fact that he collected a large amount of this precious material was not known, he bought it in various major markets for one, two, or three yuan, and collected bits and pieces to build up the current scale.
Three of the pieces taken out of the arms came from Pandora's Bazaar, while the rest were just hastily buried at the entrance of the cave.
Picking up one of the pebble-sized stones, Mogan tentatively injected a little magic into it, then picked through it, and finally held five pieces of special stone essence in each hand.
After standing at the door for just a moment, strange ripples appeared on the edge of the originally dark hole. It was as if the corners of ordinary stones were suddenly transformed into liquid by magic, but the surrounding area was not affected at all. Immediately afterwards, several stone essences in Mogan's hands seemed to be tempered with a layer of coating, mixed and melted into light-colored liquid light groups, and then pushed and integrated into Yanshi.
Mo Gan took a few steps back and watched as the hole slowly "healed" like a wound, and his hands immediately closed up after the stone wall healed.
In an instant, all the stone spirits seemed to have their power drained away, turning into fine powder and flowing between the fingers. The part that fell on the ground was instantly hidden in the soil, no longer distinguishable from ordinary land.
And Mogan still has most of them left.
He picked up another stone spirit and knocked it on the place where the cave entrance was. It made a crashing sound similar to the normal collision of stones.
But when the stone essence is placed on top of the powder, and the powder is mixed with the new stone essence, the surface of the stone essence seems to be activated by "waste". As a small amount of stone powder is consumed, the color gradually becomes darker, and there is no need to add any excess. of magic.
Mogan held the mutated stone spirit and stretched towards the entrance of the cave, but there was no obstacle.
This is the "key" made.
The inspection found that the process was very smooth. Mogan first gathered the remaining powder on his hands and put them into an anti-magic storage bottle prepared in advance. Now the special stone spirit that has been activated is the key to the cave. It can help living creatures enter the stone spirit door at the entrance of the cave that is not only invisible but also looks like a rock at any time. And with the existence of these powders, more similar things can be made.
After pondering for a moment, Mo Gan walked into the Stone Spirit Gate first, and by the light of the candle that was still glowing nearby, he placed a piece of special stone spirit near the treasure chest. He also filled some of the powder and poured it into the stone spirit. One of the potion storage jars made of anti-magic material had been emptied, and a mark was made on the mouth of the bottle.
The special stone spirit itself can freely enter and exit the stone door, but people cannot. This preparation is mainly to prevent yourself from accidentally throwing the "key" out when you enter the door. Although this kind of fake stone door and real stone wall can be easily broken by him, the materials needed to repair it are too expensive, and Mogan simply does not want to take even a little bit of such risks.
In addition to picking out another piece of material that could be used as a "spare key", Mogan buried the remaining dozen or so special-grade stone spirits in various parts of the valley. Each stone spirit is very expensive, and he is naturally very particular about it. According to the mountain topography and vegetation division, the stone spirit and the previous black tree stumps are evenly divided. The breath and power of the plants and minerals counterbalance each other, leaving no trace. The next flaw.
The root of natural magic lies in checks and balances, and Morgan has been told this common sense since he first came to this world.
There is a unique balance in any natural system, and people who are good at natural magic can clearly detect the differences. Because of this, although Mogan is not proficient in natural magic, he hopes to be as close to this result as possible without leaving any precautions that are too obvious for experienced treasure hunters to detect casually.
In order to achieve the purpose of concealing the appearance, the stone spirit gate created by the super-grade stone spirit has a perfect appearance, but the flaw is that this natural power contains extremely strong magical power, which is difficult to ignore anywhere.
Because of this, in order for this kind of magic power to be completely neutralized, appropriate magical creatures are needed. In addition to some harmless native plant species, plant material potions and animal-derived material "ink horns" are also feasible. Balance the material.
Due to the need to "hide trees in the forest", the power of rocks cannot be concentrated in just one place. Otherwise, after being discovered, it will be easy to determine the suspicious location - even if they have spent most of their power on mimicry.
After so much trouble, Mo Gan had already made his ultimate goal clear when he chose the cave to be dug out.
Morgan doesn't just want to amass and protect his boxes of gold coins and other treasures.
Maybe others don't think so, but in Mogan's view, the speed of making money in the first five years was too slow and lacked efficiency and scale.
Because of this, he has already focused on some people who can be exploited, because only with sufficient funds can he make money at a rate that he can be satisfied with.
To achieve this goal, Morgan Grande's real plan has just begun. If he wanted to fill the warehouse he had painstakingly dug, Mogan would not want to wait until tens or hundreds of years later. Long-term planning is his style, but it is not his purpose.
Greed will never end, and the "best" deadline that Mogan focuses on will only be today, now, immediately, immediately.
