Chapter 123 Night-Walking Feather Cloak and Agility Armband

Kentrey Furnace Workshop.

In front of the flame furnace’s refining array, the alchemist’s assistant, Tain, wiped the sweat from his face with a towel, leaving a smear of charcoal black. “I recommend you spend five hundred magic stones to purchase this Night Walker Feather Cloak.”

“Because this enchanted item best meets your requirements—it has enough defensive power to withstand apprentice-level spells, and it’s light enough not to affect your movement.”

“It even has a certain degree of stealth capability. At night, it becomes semi-invisible, moving like a cloud of fuzzy air. If you’re trying to escape or track someone at night, it can be a great help.”

Tyne enthusiastically introduced his work. “The Night Walker Feather Cloak is made of Shadow Nightingale feathers.”

“I used the Three-Phase Refining Formation, Shadow Stone, and the magical alloy Adamantine, to strengthen its material, making it lighter and harder. The feather’s invisibility ability has been further enhanced.”

“Its surface is bonded with a layer of magical alloy—adamantium—which provides a certain degree of defense. Of course, there are also some necessary enchanted runes on it, mainly for enhancing defense. That is the most insignificant part of the ingenious design of this entire enchanted item.”

Tyne said excitedly: “I tried it before, I used a 0.3 level spell on it, and it didn’t hurt at all.”

“It can even allow a 0.8-level spell to hit you, leaving you with only minor injuries. Of course, that would easily break it.” Tain said, “Then you can ask me to repair it.”

“My principle here is that within one year, there is maintenance service, and I can give you a 50% discount on the repair costs.”

Locke looked at the Night Walker Feather Robe in Tyne’s hand. This garment was said to be able to protect him from spells, but in fact it was not heavy. On the contrary, it was very light, like a thin underwear that could be worn under outer clothes.

This is the power of an alchemist.

They strengthen and change materials, and the magical items in their hands often take into account both performance and convenience.

Locke nodded with satisfaction and paid 500 magic stones. “Good, I’ll buy it.”

The wizard war is very fierce at the moment, so of course I have to buy some things as a means of saving my life.

A defensive magic item can be of great help in this regard.

Locke took off his white wizard robe and put on the Night Walker Feather Robe directly, and then put on his own wizard robe.

Locke said: “Besides that, please sell me an agility arm ring.”

“I remember it was about 300 magic stones. How about giving me three free recharges?”

Tyne hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said, “Okay, you bought my magic alloy work last time, and this time you bought my new work, the Night Walker Feather Robe. I’ll sell this to you at a loss and give you three more free recharge opportunities.”

Locke curled his lips in satisfaction, having saved a little more money.

The Agility Armband is also a common alchemical item. This thing is actually a consumable item, which contains a 0.7-level spell [Light Footsteps on the Wind] from the Enchanting School, but it can only be activated once.

If you want to use it next time, you can only ask the alchemist to recharge it.

The enchantment spell of Lightly Walking on the Wind can change the wizard’s body structure, making it lighter. Within 30 seconds, the bones will become closer to the bones of magical bird creatures, gaining the blessing of the wind element and having an instant speed increase.

Locke’s main purpose in purchasing the agility arm ring was to save his life.

In a crisis, the most important thing is not the defensive items that increase defense, but the ability to increase escape speed.

This agility armband is, to some extent, also a common and popular product among alchemists, so it is sold in all major alchemy workshops.

Tyne actively promoted his work, wiping his sweat with a towel again, leaving a long black charred mark on his face. “It can be seen that you have made a fortune recently, Augustine.”

“Would you like to buy another Kirin Tor Wizard Sword from me? This is a weapon I forged using the Three-Phase Refining Array and the High-Temperature Furnace Refining Array. The design was designed by my teacher when he was a first-class wizard apprentice…”

“If you want to buy it, I can give you a discount. It’s extremely effective. Once it pierces the enemy, the wound it causes cannot be healed… The sword is indestructible and cannot be destroyed…”

Locke shook his head, decisively paid three hundred magic stones, got the agility armband, and then prepared to leave the store.

I don’t need something like a wizard sword at all. The magic plant is my best weapon.

The wizard sword is used by wizard apprentices who are good at medium and long-range spell attacks but not good at close combat, such as the School of Evocation, the School of Summoning, the School of Illusion, the School of Enchantment, etc.

But as a wizard specializing in plant magic from the School of Life, I have no need to use a wizard sword.

Besides, I don’t have much money, so I have to spend it wisely. There is no need to buy unnecessary things.

Even if I bought it, it would just gather dust in the Star Ring.

Locke said goodbye to Tyne, who was still loudly introducing his products at the door, but Locke had already walked towards the slave warehouse.

He found his previous trader, the dark elf Benny, and started talking to him about a big deal. He said, “This deal is quite big. I need 80 Tauren noble slaves.”

“Is the price still 10 magic stones per person?”

Benny the Dark Elf was stunned for a moment, his brain feeling like it had been hit by a hammer. He muttered to himself, “Eighty? Eighty!”

“This is a major transaction. I might not be qualified enough…”

He looked at the badges Locke was wearing in awe. The dazzling badge of the first-class wizard apprentice and the badge of the potion master’s assistant made it difficult for him to breathe while speaking.

But not long ago, the wizard in front of him was clearly just a second-class wizard apprentice.

Locke said coldly, “Then find me someone who can make this deal right away. Benny.”

The dark elf Benny gave Locke a trembling salute. The cold words made him shudder, and he quickly apologized to Locke, “Yes, respected Alchemist Augustine.”

He turned and hurried into the shop, and soon he was followed out by a tall, fair-skinned male blood elf wearing complicated and expensive clothes.

This male blood elf is a first-class wizard apprentice.

He looked at Locke briefly, then said with a smile, “I’m Sherley, the manager of the slave warehouse.”

“Dear guest, you want to expand the plantation on a large scale, or add a new batch production line for pharmaceuticals.”

“Moutaurs are indeed relatively honest slaves with clean backgrounds. However, due to the large number of buyers recently, the price of Minotaur noble slaves has increased significantly, from 10 magic stones per person to 15 magic stones per person.”

When Locke heard this, he frowned in dissatisfaction.

This price increase doesn’t make much of a difference for a single purchase, but when the quantity increases, the difference can reach four hundred magic stones.

But in order to deliver orders, I can’t buy inferior slaves, that will only end up hurting myself.

If anything happens to that group of inferior slaves, it is likely to delay the production progress of the plantation.

The blood elf Sherley secretly observed Locke’s expression and immediately decided to lower the price.

Are you kidding? You can’t just let a customer who buys 80 slaves at one time just turn around and walk away like that.

That would be an absolute dereliction of duty on his part.

What if the customer feels the pinch and doesn’t want to buy?

Simply lower the price.

For such large-volume transactions, even if the price is reduced, it is still possible to make a considerable profit by selling at a low profit margin, so there is no need to dwell on such matters.

The blood elf Sherley smiled and said, “But since you’re buying so many at once, we’ve kept the price at 10 magic stones per Tauren noble slave. That’s 800 magic stones for 800 Tauren slaves.”

“If we increase the volume, we can still make a profit.”

Locke then nodded slightly to show that he agreed and that he could accept the price.

If the price is the same as before, I might as well buy another kind of slave.

Locke said, “Then let’s sign the contract. But I need to check these slaves first. Do you have any in stock in your store?”

The blood elf, Sherley, said, “Of course. Although we don’t have much in stock here, I can immediately transfer a batch from the surrounding area, and you can choose from them. Don’t worry. I’ll transfer it to you tomorrow, and you can take your pick.”

“Since we dare to sell these mortal slaves at such a high price, we will naturally provide attentive service. These slaves have all been transformed into perfect slaves through enchantment.”

The blood elf Sherley proudly said, “This is our professionalism. Alchemist Augustine, you know that there are always many people in this society who have many unnecessary misunderstandings about our profession.”

“But those are stereotypes.”

“We are conscientious, moral, and principled…slave traders.”
