427 Lesson 417: Crystal Seeds

Allen accompanied Peromus to the old town of Patranta, the Imperial Capital.

I'm looking for what I'm looking for.

You're such an amazing person around here, aren't you?

Peromus speaks to Allen, avoiding people coming towards him.

Yeah, it's a festive occasion.

(It seems that the civil commotion was not that big.)

The Prostia Empire is in the midst of civil strife due to Ignomus.

I heard that the civil unrest originally stayed in the palace and was not that big.

The streets of the Imperial City are so busy that they don't feel like civil unrest.

I think the upcoming Princess Contest will be an important festival for the people of the Prostia Empire.

Downtown Patranta, the Imperial Capital, is home to many fishmen from within the Prostia Empire.

(The flower pillars are getting bigger again.)

In the center of the crystal flower, whose petals are more than 100 kilometers long, the flower pillars continue to grow like females.

This flower column is said to be 10 kilometers high and several kilometers thick.

The contest of singing princesses takes place on these several kilometers of flower pillars.

Whatever it is, do you think singing on the pillar of the flower is a consideration for the easy viewing of the Holy Fish Makris?

Somehow, there's a lot of beauties.

Unlike Allen, who looks at the flower pillars, Peromus draws attention to the appearance of the different fishmen.

Aren't you the one who won the provincial qualifiers?

Hmmm...

Allen and his team headed for their destination as their incomprehensible conversation with Peromus progressed.

Today, I reported to the officials of the palace that they will look into what money can be made in the market.

The Princess Contest is a song of gratitude in honor of Makris the Holy Fish, the Protector of the Prostia Empire.

There is also a reason why they sing songs in honor of the Holy Fish Makris.

A woman named Cynthia who made love to Makris was said to be a woman who made a living of singing.

Makris fell in love with a common woman singing for the masses in a tavern in the city.

The gratitude for St. Makris is a song about meeting Cynthia.

Allen and his family didn't come for sightseeing, so I don't intend to go there, but it seems that the tavern that was in its original state 300 years ago is now a memorial hall.

Holy Fish Makris is usually swimming in this wide sea, and only comes to the Imperial Capital Patranta for a day.

Moreover, the day that comes is decided when the crystal flowers will fly the seeds.

So the schedule is preliminarily qualifying in each region according to the Holy Fish Makris.

I also know about the eligibility to participate in the singing princess contest.

Eligibility for the Singing Princess Contest is as follows.

Being talented in song systems, such as songwriters

· Being a woman

Has not won in the past

It seems that the number of talented stars is irrelevant to eligibility.

Cynthia had the gift of being called a singer.

Cynthia was singing a song, and the competition was dedicated to women thanks to St. Makris.

And since it's a contest, it decides on the superiority and inferiority of the participants, but it seems that it can't be like winning every year.

Even if they win the prize within the fifth place, they are eligible to participate next year, but if they win, they will not be able to participate in the tournament in the future.

It reminds me of a funny contest at the end of the year somewhere.

"Ah! It says Magic Shop."There it is, there it is. This place is amazing, too.Is there a crystal seed? "

Peromus discovers a magic shop on the shop sign.

"I don't know. Peromus, please be careful that the shopkeeper doesn't say unnatural things."

"Yeah, I know."

This is a magic shop that handles accessories and other equipment.

A magician is a shop that handles things like rings that contain effects like rising stats and defending against poisons.

There seems to be a standard of judgment on the appearance of the evaluation, and it is said that the participants of the tournament are coming to this kind of store that handles a lot of accessories.

The gaze of the female mermaids who were watching the beautiful accessories as if they were participants in the tournament gathered at once at Allen's.

Everyone said, "Why are you two guys here at this time of year?”he said.

I feel like I'm in a female vehicle.

I can think of a scene where I went to a place where I didn't feel wrong in my previous life, while taking a full look at it.

It reminds me of the past when I accidentally entered the train of a female-only vehicle and grabbed my attention.

"What is that?"

"This is the story."

Although Pelomus is the son of the village chief, he is interested in Allen, who was a serf, and I remember talking about it from the time he was in the village of Klenna.

Unlike Klenna and Dogora, it was a valuable common sense frame in Allen.

"Welcome, this is it. Please take your time."

As you enter the store, the owner of the scaly shop greets you with glasses.

Allen and the others are dressed well to enter the palace, so they are polite.

This is a very expensive shop, so I want you to serve customers appropriately.

If you can get credibility in appearance, not in words or attitudes, you can't go further than that.

"Excuse me, are there any crystal seeds?"

Two days ago, I checked to see if there were any crystal seeds that were the topic of the girls' party.

Crystal seeds? I don't have a lot of them.

It's a crowded shop, but it's polite.

And show me what was hidden under the show window.

It's like a ball that shines like a baseball in light blue.

"Is this the seed of the crystal?" It's beautiful, isn't it? "

“There are only two of them in the store right now. I'll give you a hundred coins, but what do you do?”

There seems to be a fair amount of money.

It is said to be like a seed of a crystal flower.

It is said that the water flows and moves, and new crystalline flowers bloom at the end of the sea floor.

In fact, it seems that the Prostia Empire buys the crystal seeds at a fairly good price by collecting them from all the citizens of the Imperial Capital, Patranta.

“Both of them, please. Isn't there any more in this store?"

That being said, I will pay for the two crystal seeds I have now.

Allen has a catchy way of saying it.

"Thank you. That's right.Are you a palace official or not? "

"That's the way it is. This shop has a lot of care, but I'm sorry I didn't wholesale the crystal seeds too much."I have received good values from other stores. "

Allen continues his talk to achieve one of the purposes for which he came today.

Peromus also keeps an eye on the shopkeeper's attitude for unnaturalness.

"To another store?" We also have relationships with other stores.The new Emperor will not be wholesale anywhere else. "

The lazy shopkeeper shines his glasses and discovers Allen's lies.

This is something that has been noticed after all.

She looks like she has been found out.

"Of course. The merchants' information network is not to be underestimated."After all, are you distributing it for the good of the nobles? "

"Well, that's it." This year we will also be flying many crystal seeds.At that time, please buy it at a good price. "

Ignomus distributes the contents of the vault in order to bring the nobles down to the gate.

The merchants seem to know that.

“Of course, I will.”

(Oh, it's not a lie, but it's not on the books.)

Allen raised his intelligence and came to this exchange with the shopkeeper.

With my intellect up, I could almost see the opponent's lies.

However, it is still not perfect, and sometimes it is tough for a war-torn merchant to set up a shop on a first-class main street like this one.

I'm sure you'll miss your lies by a factor of ten or twenty.

Allen sees Pelomus, but he shakes his head to the side.

It seems that Pelomus, who also raised his intelligence with his gear, seems to have no doubt about the attitude of the scorpion merchant in front of him.

Getting the crystal seeds was one of the reasons I came to this Prostia Empire in the first place.

However, there were no crystal seeds in the warehouse of the palace or in the treasure trove.

I checked with Princess Rapsonil just in case, but she said that there should be a lot of crystal seeds in the palace treasure house as stock.

As the shopkeeper in front of me said, Ignomus distributed the crystal seeds that could sell at a good price to the aristocrats.

However, there were no crystal seeds in the items handed out from the vault to nostalgize the nobles.

Other works of art, such as paintings and sculptures, are recorded in the books, but there are only crystal seeds.

So, you sold them to the merchants to exchange them for gold coins, but it seems that the exchange is different.

It was unnecessary for the nobles, but it was worth it and they sold it to the merchants for a good price.

There was a record in the books of where and how much I sold.

However, only the seeds of the crystal do not move in the books.

It seems that the palace holds nearly 3,000 crystal seeds in stock in case anything happens.

Since the civil unrest a few months ago, the books have stopped moving, but there was no inventory.

(Why not? Who did you distribute it to in the books, and why didn't you put it on the books?)

Something we haven't figured out yet, apparently.

Allen sends Peromus his gaze that he should do more research.

I gazed back at Peromus, too.

When Allen and Peromus were communicating in their eyes, the shopkeeper on the scarecrow's side came to mind.

The shopkeeper is concerned about the crystal seeds that are scheduled to be picked out after next month.

Once a year, only this giant crystal blossom releases nearly 10,000 crystal seeds.

As Allen and the others thought about it, the owner's face suddenly brightened up when they heard that the seeds of the newly flown crystal would be wholesale.

There are a number of reasons why we came to this Prostia Empire.

To make Shia a king of beasts, to acquire equipment that is a testament to the king of beasts, or to acquire as many holy beads as possible.

In other words, to find an ally with buff skills.

It's a talented profession with many buffs born to fish people, but I don't have a headcount, so it's a good idea to find one.

And finally, the gear was upgraded.

The seeds of the crystal were requested by the master craftsman Habarak.

This crystal seed is an alchemy material.

Blacksmiths are talented at blacksmithing, led by master craftsman Habarak's workshop on Heavy Users Island.

Blacksmith's Talents by Number of Stars

One star, the best blacksmith in the village

Two stars, the best blacksmith in town

Three stars, the best blacksmith in the country

Four stars, the best blacksmith in the world

Five stars, legendary blacksmith

The master craftsman Habarak has four stars, and there are nine other stars and three talented blacksmiths on Heavy User Island.

With the talent of this blacksmith, you can gain the "Machining" skill.

Without talent, basically only iron can be processed.

It takes the talent of a blacksmith to work on Mithril's metal.

The higher the number of stars, the harder the metal can be processed: Mithril, Hydrangea, and Adamantite.

It is because of the talented Habaraku of the four stars that the Oriharkon can be processed.

And there's another talent I need to be a blacksmith.

It's an alchemy skill that applies a certain effect to processed weapons and armor.

By using this alchemy skill, you can apply Alchemy effects to your weapon, in addition to Attack Power.

Examples of Alchemy Attachments to Weapons

Status rise

Crit Rate Increase

Attack damage increased

Cool time reduction

Attribute

With the granting magic, the effect disappears after a certain period of time has elapsed, but with the alchemy, the effect lasts forever.

The higher the number of stars, the more Mithril, Hydrangea, Adamantite, and Harder Metals can be smelted.

In addition, even Habaraku, a master craftsman with four stars, could not alchemy Oriharkon.

I heard that only Adamantite alchemy was possible by the master craftsman Habarak.

Allen's people are changing their weapons and armor on Oriharkon, so we need to use alchemy materials to strengthen Allen's forces.

This crystal seed seems to be a very effective alchemy, and alchemy materials of the same class are limited.

In Rosenheim, the World Tree Branch is a very effective alchemical material, but the cutting of the world tree goes to jail.

They say that only fallen branches can be picked.

When Allen heard the story, he raised the status of the world tree trunk with his Summon Beast to shake it in order to pick branches without cutting them down.

It's a different story that the Queen of Elves fell from her lap with a pale face saying, "Do that."

In addition, in the famous Albahar beast kingdom of Gallesia, there seems to be a dragon people ruled by a dragon people who is said to be strong enough to oppose the dragon people.

Habarak told me that the "Dragon's Eye Rock" picked there would be a very good alchemy material.

What about the earplugs?

“That's right. Peromus should have seen the Basque as well.”

Valuable items can only be shown to appraiser skilled Peromus.

Ah ~. If you put the demon god in front of you, you'll die.

Peromus says, frightened.

The Basque battles he fought recently had earplugs on their ears, but the effect was like a full defense of debuffs.

Contains Meruth's Magic Power and completely prevents it from granting attributes.

Allen remembered that the Basque earrings had the shape of a shell.
