64: Chapter 64 Fascination and Customization
Ross's eyes quickly swept across the interior of the equipment shop, and there were almost no major changes.
At this moment, hearing someone calling his name, the dwarf store manager Park also stood on tiptoe and walked quickly toward the door.
In Ross's line of sight, he saw a dwarf half his height hurriedly walking toward him.
"Welcome, so it is Ross. I wonder what I can do for you."
After Park widened his small eyes to see clearly who was in front of him, he adjusted his clothes, hat, and appearance, and quickly replied.
Ross materialized the mineral resources he drew from the card draw and put them into his magic pocket.
After arriving here at this moment, he poured these ores onto the counter one by one.
As for Park, the owner of this shop, after seeing these ores of excellent quality, his gaze was firmly locked on them.
As for the dwarf race, their love for ores is no less than their love for fine wine, and even surpasses it.
In their natural bloodline, it seemed to carry some kind of gift from the God of Craftsmanship.
Therefore, in the Wizard World, they are also very outstanding weapon forging masters.
In the multiverse and countless outer planes, the dwarf ethnic group is also a renowned master craftsman.
Whether it is high-purity iron ore, copper ore, or dark gold crystal ore with faint magic power.
These ores extracted from the mine caves of Boulder Town became even purer after being purified by the system.
"What a marvelous stone. Are you going to sell them to me, Ross? If you sell them to me, I can give you a price 20% higher than the market price."
"I don't know where you got them from, or if wizards really have such great ability to dig out such beautiful ores."
After seeing these exquisite ores, the dwarf Park could not take his eyes off them, and even his words began to become disordered.
He had already directly revealed his quotation.
However, Ross naturally did not come to do any ore business. Although this batch of ores could obtain a batch of magic stones if sold, that would be draining the pond to catch fish.
It might sell for three or four hundred magic stones, but for him, forging a magic cauldron was more important.
"Store Manager Park, I am not here today to sell these ores. Instead, I hope that the true owner of your shop can help me forge a magic cauldron that a Wizard Apprentice can use."
"I wonder if your father knows how to forge this kind of magic tool?"
At this moment, Ross's words were spoken one after another.
This is not to say that Ross questioned whether the boss behind the shop had the ability to forge.
But rather to first confirm whether the boss behind the scenes had time to forge, and whether he could forge a suitable magic cauldron.
At this moment, Park reluctantly moved his gaze away from the pile of ores, and then answered cautiously:
"Of course he can. My father is a legendary existence among my race. Even some Official Wizards will find him to forge some utensils or weapons."
"A magic cauldron used for forging potions is naturally a piece of cake for him."
Hearing the sworn words of the dwarf Park, Ross already believed it by 80 percent.
Being able to accurately state the use of the magic cauldron already proved that this shop was not some middleman.
Coupled with the fact that being able to operate a shop for a long time on the street of the Wizard Bazaar, they all had sufficient reputation guarantees, plus a stable source of goods.
If there were no true master craftsman behind it, this shop could not possibly have stood on this street all along.
As for the lifespan of dwarves, compared to humans, it is much longer.
With a legendary dwarf as the background of the shop, as long as the environment is rich in magic power, they can survive for almost a thousand years.
This is also a disadvantage that humans differ from other alien bloodlines.
But every gain comes with a loss; because the dwarf bloodline contains special magic power,
it produces a repulsion towards wizards using a Meditation Method to enhance mental power and magic power.
This leads to the fact that it is very difficult for these dwarves to improve their mental power through meditation and then become a wizard.
Therefore, although there are many other alien Wizard Apprentices in the academy, the most primary ones are still humans.
Since this shop can provide forging services, for Ross, it is a good choice.
So after Ross conceived his requirements in his heart, he said to the dwarf Park in front of him who was standing on tiptoe and carefully stroking the pile of ores:
"That would naturally be very good. If possible, I hope your father can use this pile of ores to help me forge a sturdy magic cauldron. The only requirement is that it is sturdy and reliable enough, and other characteristics can be done according to a normal magic cauldron. Specifically, it is..."
A high-quality magic cauldron of course has quite a few functions.
But for a Wizard Apprentice, sometimes these functions will instead interfere with their own progress.
At least for a Wizard Apprentice, groping from scratch on how to refine potions,
and experiencing the various changes of potions in the cauldron, is very important.
And these are inseparable from experimentation; under some extreme circumstances, some violent explosions might even occur.
In this case, a sturdy magic cauldron is very important.
On the contrary, some alchemy apprentices may, during the process of refining a magic cauldron,
add some extra useless designs, just to highlight the so-called innovation.
They might add a so-called temperature monitor, or potion success rate, and things like that.
But these are just to fool some ordinary Wizard Apprentices.
Masters who truly understand potions all return to the most unpretentious basics.
These so-called displays, or those capable of observing changes in medicine, are just gimmicks.
On the contrary, sometimes they even mislead wizards regarding some changes in the potion refining process,
playing some counterproductive roles, which is instead undesirable.
Therefore, Ross does not demand any other fancy things.
He only requires that this magic cauldron achieves sufficient sturdiness while meeting other basic requirements for refining potions.
The rest he can constantly grope and explore during the potion refining process; this process is actually a kind of ritual study.
In the Wizard World, potionology is not just a traditional magic study, but is actually closely related to mysticism.
In some worlds, through various rituals or by using celestial phenomena, one can refine the desired potions.
This is different from traditional fine carving, the traditional scientific thinking that requires no errors at every moment.
"Magic power itself is a miracle, and trying within miracles is the best choice, rather than finding an absolute, unchanging, and cold path."
