Chapter 34 Elven Writing



"Master, he looks so painful, please save him." Avril looked at Lin Xingchen who was held in Anna's arms, and anxiously pulled the old man's hand for help.

"Stop shouting. You won't die if you wake up. Besides, he can't die. I'm still waiting for him to help me swing the sledgehammer."

As if he didn't want to say more, the old man took out a bottle of medicine, opened the cork and poured it into Lin Xingchen's mouth.

Lin Xingchen felt something entering his mouth, and then a warm force continued to soothe his head which was about to explode.

After retching a few times, he finally came back to his senses. Looking at the anxious Anna in front of him, he asked weakly: "Who plotted against me just now? What happened to me!"

"Are you awake, kid? If you are, answer me quickly. Did you chant a forbidden spell?"

"Hey, hey, old man, why do you care so much? I don't know any forbidden spells. I just recited a poem by the high elves. What's wrong with that?"

"What's wrong with that? You've been hiding it well enough. You've been staying with me for almost a month without telling me that you can speak High Elf language."

"If you had told me earlier, you wouldn't have fainted today. Do you know why you fainted? You were attacked by the forbidden technique. If I hadn't intervened in time, you would have died long ago."

Norton was so angry that he was jumping up and down. This kid was hiding something very well. If he knew that this kid could speak High Elf, he would never let him go so easily.

Such a big treasure could have been known only to myself, but now all those bastards know about it.

"Master Norton, please stop talking about this and ask about the real business!"

"Little guy, let me ask you, which line of poetry did you recite that made you faint?" asked a magician in his sixties in a amiable manner.

"Master, it's not good to get something for nothing! Although I'm a little confused now, I know that anything related to the high elves is definitely a good thing."

"Hahaha... Linus got humiliated! Don't think you can get what you want just by talking quickly."

"Boy, I'm not afraid to tell you that just because you can read High Elven language doesn't mean you can use it. Those words have strange magic powers. Your fainting is the best proof of that."

"It is difficult to activate it without sufficient strength, and according to the rules of the magic world, you can exchange spells you have mastered."

"I wonder if you are willing to exchange?" Norton directly stated some rules in order to make some people give up some small ideas.

"How do we exchange?" Lin Xingchen asked, trying to suppress his headache.

"If you translate the High Elven language, we will give you a corresponding reward or the same spell."

"You don't know High Elvish? If you have it, I can trade it with you directly."

"Little guy, I wonder who you learned High Elven language from? If you want to exchange, you have to let us know your level. Otherwise, what should we do if you just talk nonsense to deceive us?" Linus' face changed and asked in a deep voice.

"Master, whether to exchange or not depends on my wishes. Please don't talk to me in a tone of treating a servant. I am the heir to a duke. If necessary, I can take your words as a contempt for me." Lin Xingchen has been a little timid since he reached the fifth-level magician. After he has the ability to protect himself, he doesn't like to listen to some people's nonsense.

"Well said, little one, ignore him. The exchange can be easily tested. A useless spell cannot bring about magic power."

"Okay, old man, we have been working together for a month, so I will make a deal with you. I will take a look at the spell later."

"By the way, old man, see if anything is wrong!" Lin Xingchen felt a little like a frightened bird.

"As long as you don't use your mental strength to read it, you won't be able to arouse its power."

"That's good." Taking the book from Anna, Lin Xingchen flipped through it page by page, and his speed became faster and faster.

I picked up a pen and paper and translated that poetic sentence.

Norton quickly took it in his hand to check it. Under the concerned gazes of others, Norton checked it for a long time and felt a little disappointed.

"Is there anything else behind this spell, little guy?"

"No, this book is actually a sheet of music. I just checked and found that only the last few pages contain this spell. And according to the original words of the owner of this diary, this spell was only half complete during the High Elves period. It is an unfinished or missing spell."

"After checking the contents himself, Lin Xingchen was a little disappointed and threw the book to Norton and asked him to read it himself."

"Little guy, I don't know whether your luck is good or bad. This is indeed a sheet of music. As for your half-finished spell, I can only tell you that it can only be exchanged for a few spells or bottles of potions."

"I don't care. Since you saved me, old man, then I'll consider this as a gift to you. No exchange is required." When checking, Lin Xingchen found that something seemed a little different, because the owner of this diary mentioned in his notes that this spell only had this half, which was really disappointing.

"Let me see." Linus quickly reached out and snatched the book from Norton's hand.

"How can it be only half? How can such a powerful magic fluctuation be only half?"

Looking at the old man flipping through the books like crazy, Lin Xingchen couldn't help but frown.

"Linus, watch your manners." Norton shouted.

"Half of the spell is available on the market. What use do I have for this half?"

He pressed the book against the chest of a middle-aged man next to him and floated away.

With this guy taking the lead, when everyone was about to leave, Lin Xingchen quickly stopped them.

"You are not allowed to leave. If you want to leave, you have to pay me compensation. How can you blow up someone's roof and then just walk away like that?"

Many people were embarrassed when they heard Lin Xingchen's words. Lin Xingchen looked at everyone and said quickly, "These three or four holes cannot be repaired without a thousand gold coins. Hurry up and pay, or I will go to the king to sue you."

"Don't go too far, little guy. Although it was wrong of us to break the roof, don't try to blackmail me. A roof like this is worth at most a hundred gold coins."

"I'll give you ten gold coins as compensation first, and you can ask them for the rest." Norton threw down ten gold coins and turned around and ran away.

"Damn it, we've been tricked by this old guy again." Some people hurriedly put down their gold coins and left. After all, they had broken someone's roof and ran away without making any compensation. As a group of people who claimed to be noble magicians, they really couldn't bring themselves to do that.

Looking at the gold coins on the table, Lin Xingchen wanted to speak immediately, but was pulled back by Anna and the others and this time he suppressed his dissatisfaction.

"Although I understand why you pulled me, these gold coins are not enough to compensate for your losses."

"It's already very good that these magicians can give compensation. Don't forget that the group of people just now are all important figures in the kingdom. You often say that you can earn gold coins if you lose them. Don't make enemies for some trivial things."

"Lin, is it true that they only said half of the spell?" Sister Eddie asked secretly in a low voice.

"Haha... Big sister, don't you see what kind of people they are? I dare say there are at least several people among them who can verify whether what I said is true or false."

"I'm not stupid. How could I let go of an opportunity that could bring me benefits? There's really only half a sentence in this."

"Is your head okay?" Avril didn't care about anything and poured a glass of water for Lin Xingchen.

I don't think I can go back tonight. Although I look fine, I am completely powerless now. Please help me arrange a room. I will just stay here for one night.

This feeling lasted for three days before I recovered. My originally fair complexion lost some color and I felt a little listless.

Lin Xingchen was sleeping soundly while lying in the sun, and Anna woke him up.

"Lord Alfred, the heir to the Duke of the South, is here to see you."

"It's time for him to come. The cooperation issue has been delayed for more than half a year."

When I saw Alfred again, he was still the same, with a serious expression, his body straight, and his every move showing the demeanor of a gentleman.

"Mr. George, I haven't seen you for more than half a year. You are still so majestic."

"Mr. Xingchen, you have changed a lot. I wonder what happened to your hair."

"Don't worry about these little things. I wonder what you are here for this time?"

"It's about cooperation. After discussion, we agree to the conditions you proposed, but there is a prerequisite."

"Tell me about it."

"I hope that after this cooperation, if you have new technology and seeds in Maple Leaf Territory, I need to get them first, and the conditions are the same."

Shaking his head, Lin Xingchen said affirmatively: "No, I can only selectively give you the technology. I must keep some important technologies. But I can assure you that as long as the situation allows, I can give you priority in providing technology."

"Well, although I have already thought of the result, I still feel a little disappointed when you say it."

"If you feel lost, you can go back and count your gold coins so that you will have motivation. I will probably return to Maple Leaf Territory in October and arrive before the snow closes the mountain. I hope you can send someone to study in time. Don't miss the time or you will have to wait for a year."

"The personnel have already been arranged to set off as you instructed when I came to the capital, and they will probably arrive earlier than you."

"That's good. I look forward to our cooperation continuing happily." Lin Xingchen said as he raised the teacup in his hand.

"There is no conflict between my family and yours, and our ancestors were comrades who fought together, so it's natural that we can continue on in a friendly manner."

Lin Xingchen, who had recovered with full health, started to have fun again. The music score became his best toy. It took him several days to repair the roof. Lin Xingchen used the music scores from the high elves to attract many waves of customers to the United Rose.
