Chapter 107
It was a powerful magical item, and it was almost like it was specifically made for Greem.
Greem held the Fire Lord’s Scepter in his hand and kept inspecting it over and over. He could hardly tear himself away from it.
The scepter consisted of three parts: The tail, body, and head. It had a one-meter long body, which was entirely made from a bright fiery red material. Although it was glowing red, it felt warm upon touch, and felt comfortable when held in the hand.
A magical gemstone with no attribute was socketed on the tail of the scepter. Obviously, it was a design used to allow the scepter to be placed on a Fire Altar. Three inter-coiling Fire Dragons were engraved on the head of the scepter. A Heart of the Fire Lord was placed in the middle, where the three dragon heads met.
It was a unique magical gemstone that came from the Fire Element Plane and possessed a thread of Source Energy of Fire Element. With this magical gemstone, the bearer of the scepter would be given with the ability of fire resistance. Of course, the fire mentioned here should be the ordinary fire found in the natural environment, not the Elemental Fire created by magic spells.
By just holding the Fire Lord’s Scepter in his hand, Greem was given the ability to take a bath in the magma pool of a volcano.
After fiddling with it over and over for a long time, Greem finally placed it into his storage waist belt with reluctance. From now on, he finally owned a suitable magical item for himself. It was not surprising that the Fairy only kept this extraordinary item but did not use it, as the element spectrum was totally different from its own!
Greem glanced through the pile of gemstones again, and this time, he pulled out two strange objects: a test tube containing a mysterious purple potion, and a magical book that had a gruesome ghost head drawn on its cover.
“Substitute objects, I was asking about substitute objects! What kind of objects can be used as the substitution?” It was Greem’s turn to interrogate the demon spirit.
“Magical gemstones, magical materials, any mysterious knowledge which is not inside of this book… anything and everything. As long as they are related to magic spell, they could all become the substitute objects, but the required amount would be a lot!”
“How about this?” Greem tried his luck by placing an Emerald on top of the magical book.
It was a large Emerald with a size similar to a human heart. It would cost at least 230 magic crystals in the Adept market.
“0.3 Physique.”
The answer given by the demon spirit shocked Greem.
If calculated based on this, then if he wanted to gain total control of this book, 15 points of Physique would be equivalent to twelve thousand magic crystals! Maybe for an official Adept, this price was nothing, but for Apprentice Adepts who were constantly in need of resources, it was simply an astronomical figure.
The corner of Greem’s eyes twitched. He tilted his head and looked at the pile of gemstones, which he had thought were plenty moments ago. But now, he felt that even if he had more of them, it was still not enough for him to spend.
Placing the demon spirit book on the ground, Greem started to place magical gemstones on top of it. Every time after he placed one gemstone, the demon spirit would tell him a small figure.
Shadow Stone, Tiger’s Eye stone, Malachite, Green Agate, Lesser Moonstone, Emerald, Topaz, Aquamarine, Ruby, Opal, Sapphire, Azure Moonstone, Flame Spessarite, Golden Dranite, Dawn Stone, Living Ruby, Noble Topaz…
Following the piling up of the magical gemstones, the figures eventually reached 11. The remaining gemstones were all top grade. For example, Blood of the Old God, Blood Gem, Deep Peridot, Dawn Stone, Talasite, Night’s Eye, Lion’s Eye Stone, Crimson Spinal Stone. All of them were gems which Greem felt reluctant to give away.
