This place is not as dangerous as imagined, and there are no ambushes.

On the contrary, it was quite peaceful.

The air is so fresh that it almost makes you feel refreshed.

Emerald green vegetation spreads throughout this space. The trees grow straight and healthy, and a few of them still have clear fruits hanging on them. Thick vines coiled around the wooden frame, and plants and trees were neatly arranged and growing in the side fields.

The only problem is...

They should be at the bottom of a passenger ship, so the presence of these things is highly unusual.

Melissa put down the knife that was poised and ready to go, and turned her head to look at both sides.

"What the hell, a crew resort?"

"Is this the point?" Austin retorted, "These are all living magical plants. Even if you can't see how rare they are and how harsh their growing conditions are, you should at least know that there shouldn't be such things in this place. .”

Captain Blue Eagle shrugged, "Seeing is believing. We descended from the cargo ship and came to this place after all. Of course we have to find ways to make some guesses. It feels incredible. Can you learn from me and use your imagination?"

Although the lack of interest was not visible at all on her expression, she was probably trying to make a joke to liven up the atmosphere.

After all, he had received some hints from boss Kalman Fleming in advance, and Mogan could think of more possibilities. He also roughly understood why there was such a commotion here. It must not be just for the lighting.

This green space should be the source of the so-called new cultivated plant materials.

But Mogan didn't expect that they would grow on the ship from beginning to end, occupying a huge hidden space.

Plants in the magical world need sunlight to grow, and magic may be able to produce alternative measures.

But this belongs to Mo Gan's knowledge blind spot.

After all, for him, magic that has no direct or practical value has basically no learning value.

Even the elves who originally specialized in light magic have passed away. In fact, except for the practical branch of healing magic, the other flashy light magic in his impression is of little value to Mo Gan.

What's more, his dragon blood means he almost never gets sick or injured.

So the shrewd businessman chose a smart approach and went directly to His Majesty the King.

Industry specializing in surgery.

After listening to Morgan's guess, Lucifer was as always willing to answer questions.

"The main limitation of light magic lies in the basic requirements for magic power. After learning in the field of your own attribute magic, perhaps to the point where you can integrate low-level magic, you can start to test whether you have the talent for light magic."

Mo Gan thought thoughtfully, "Aside from this, what other conditions are there?"

After all, given the basic conditions, he might be able to give it a try.

The main thing is that it obviously meets the standards, but I still feel a little bit short-changed if I don’t give it a try.

"Integrity, selflessness and kindness are the basic qualities of a light magician." Lucifer blinked, "It is said that only such people can be recognized by the God of Light with a firm will, and ultimately have the ability to cast sacred and great light magic. "

As soon as he had the idea of ​​getting involved, Mo Gan decisively gave up on this plan.

The main reason is that he is very self-aware and feels that these adjectives cannot be exactly the same as his own. He can only say that they have almost nothing to do with them, so it is better to ignore them.

Especially the second quality.

Being a completely selfless businessman makes a lot of money even if you think about it.

His Majesty the King was unaware of his strange thoughts and continued to explain, and the narrative finally came to the point.

"Simulating sunlight is a very basic content of light magic. Anyone who knows a little light magic can imitate sunlight with pure magic power. But its practicality is indeed not strong, and it is generally only used as a weapon against special species."

The sun hangs in the sky half the time in the world, and most people don’t have any strange need to raise plants in the dark.

"What's the need if it's going to be like this for a long time? I mean the running costs...it's the resources that are expended to maintain it."

It proved that the theory was feasible, this time it was purely Mogan's own doubts.

"The magic consumed may be a little more. Because light magic requires pure magic power, a large part of the magic of mages is not pure enough and needs to be further streamlined. If magic crystals are used, detailed calculations are required."

Magic spar is a special mineral that stores magic. Its distribution area is variable and its output is unlimited. From time to time, a new mine will appear. Each country has a specialized mining organization to control the acquisition of this additional energy.

This kind of natural mineral becomes indistinguishable from ordinary stones after the magic is exhausted. It is better than nothing for mages, but it can help ordinary people use scrolls and activate magic. It is hard currency for most people, and naturally it has a certain value. quotation.

——Of course, the mage himself cannot artificially inject magic into this kind of ore. Otherwise, there would not be so many mages in the world who are very short of money and try their best to work for others.

Lucifer also calculated for a while, and finally reported a series of numbers to Morgan.

Mo Gan only felt that this really cost a lot of money.

"Actually, all signs have shown that all the gods have passed away, and the God of Light is no exception." Lucifer said with emotion for a moment, "So the so-called limitations of light magic may not be absolute, and only have psychological effects. If you want to learn , you can actually try it.”

Mo Gan was not surprised by the profound meaning contained in this sigh.

It is common knowledge that the Magic Continent is in an era dominated by humans but populated by thousands of races.

Although it has the largest distribution and population, the human race will never call itself the only protagonist occupying the continent. Because the relationship between various ethnic groups is not mutual domination and mutual benefit.

There is no longer anyone in the world who can rule all ethnic groups.

Among the lessons of history, a small number of mages and scholars who were closest to the truth finally reached a consensus. The sudden death of the entire elven clan was largely a side evidence of the demise of the gods.

As a race that is absolutely friendly to magic and protected by gods, the elves' extinction was too sudden. And they happened to be born from the gods, and they prayed for the gods' mercy every day before they died completely, but unlike the mysterious records in the history of the elves, they could no longer get any answers.

As a result, the ancient elven trees withered and died, and the entire elven clan turned into dust.

This is a tragic ending that most people can understand.

At a time when the elves were prosperous, there were also great magicians in their clan, and they were even the target of pilgrimage for most mages. Although they had a small population, they could never be called a weak race. Instead, they were extremely powerful, A respected clan.

Decades ago, every country had elves who were good at healing light magic. With such a connection, the elves who healed people's wounds naturally won a lot of favor.

While the elves were suffering, other elves distributed on the two continents also seemed to be summoned by death. At the same time, they sensed the loss of life and eventually turned into dust.

This kind of tragedy also constantly reminds the existing ethnic groups and sounds the alarm for them.

Relying on gods is definitely not the rule for survival in today's twin continents. It is to base oneself on oneself.

After hundreds of years of fighting, various ethnic groups have also realized that fighting each other for territory in the form of war is not the key. Only by maintaining peace can they continue to develop.

Because of this, the ethnic groups are relatively harmonious today. Except for a very few violent ethnic groups who do not even possess wisdom, as long as there is a little sense, the existing ethnic groups can maintain a relatively stable state of diplomacy.

"Speaking of which, maintaining such space magic is not an easy matter." Lucifer was still looking down and thinking deeply, and even found a job for himself, "I can think of several ways, but the most economical... well , the possibility of cost, a special ore should be used.”

cost.

The king also learned a bit of businessman's vocabulary, but his words were not as logical as Morgan's.

At this moment, Austin, who was extremely troubled, had already walked to the field ridge, ready to check how the plants inside grew and what they were.

——He still finds the existence of this thing really unbelievable, and wonders if it is some kind of deceptive trick that is full of color, fragrance, or a more advanced and improved form of transfiguration.

"Actually, I think this kind of thing is quite practical." Melissa also heard their discussion and asked curiously, "How much does it cost to create such a different space?"

Someone raised the possibility, and Lucifer would naturally not be stingy about exchanging knowledge.

"This is not something that can be accomplished in one go. Space magic requires long-term maintenance. The approximate cost depends on the size of the space-time ore, which should generally be similar to the diameter of the magic array..."

Lucifer spoke with ease, and although Captain Blue Eagle instinctively felt a little pained by the ingestion of knowledge, he still tried his best to listen. Mo Gan was also watching. After all, this was also a cost issue.

It is Mogan's own nature to care about where the money goes, and you cannot rely on others.

In the end, Lucifer was actually unable to get an accurate answer, but he also gave the calculation formula seriously.

"...It is calculated as if the space-time ore reserves are sufficient. This is the calculation method. The difference in proportion between the size of the existing space and the size of the basic space must be considered - the so-called basic space is the platform magic array we came down from before that corresponds to the current ground , shrink it to the same shape and then calculate the result.”

Melissa touched her chin and made the most professional comment she could give.

"That's a lot to think about."

Simple yet polite.

Lucifer couldn't figure it out for the time being because he didn't see the size and shape of the magic circle in person. At that time, he was more focused on the content of the spell and didn't actively memorize the true size of the magic circle. Naturally, he was missing key data.

There is another person who has a habit of remembering all the key elements.

"Two thousand one hundred and nineteen and a half gold pieces... per day."

Standing aside, Mo Gan slowly reported the number.

His face looked quite bad.
