Chapter 80: Langpu's Magic Shop

Chapter 80: Langpu's Magic Shop

Suddenly, Charlotte noticed a massive shadow appearing in the sky.

"Boom!"

The Draconic Bloodline Ogre Mage landed with a crash!

His enormous body, over six meters long, was draped in a robe stitched together from various robes. The staff in his hand appeared particularly slender, and he still wore those gold-rimmed glasses on his face. At this moment, his expression was somewhat disappointed.

"Why is it you paupers..."

"Get lost! Don't interfere with my capturing of outside adventurers."

"Wasted another third-level spell..."

Langpu glanced at the sheep that Charlotte had turned into. Seeing that he was one of those "Fallen Stars," his brow furrowed slightly, and he lightly waved his staff.

"Dispel Magic!"

A beam of magical light shot out from the staff, hitting the sheep-Charlotte.

"Bang!"

Charlotte immediately reverted from a sheep back to human form. He instinctively cast a detection spell.

【Draconic Bloodline Ogre Mage - Langpu】

Affiliation: 【Ember Nest】

Basic Abilities: ???

Challenge Level: ???

Favorability: -10 (Mild Dislike)

"He's truly a high-level mage! I've finally found one!" Charlotte shouted crazily in his heart.

He gazed up at the huge ogre covered in magical equipment, as if seeing the future of the mage profession. His eyes suddenly sparkled with hope.

"Please!"

"Lord Langpu, I want to learn magic!"

Langpu looked at him contemptuously and snorted coldly: "Don't use your low-level detection spells on me. Do you think you can see through me with such petty tricks?"

"A mage apprentice who knows nothing?"

"How utterly ridiculous!"

Having acquired many spells, Langpu had become so arrogant that he forgot his previous miserable state of only knowing Fireball.

"I'm returning to the Mage Tower. Don't waste my time in the future. The minions of Ember Nest can enter through the side gate; don't sneak around here, hindering me from making money."

"What bad luck."

After scolding them, Langpu was about to cast Fly and leave.

Seeing that his magical mentor, the guiding light of his career development, was about to leave, Charlotte made up his mind and suddenly jumped up to hug Langpu's thick thigh.

"Lord Langpu, please teach me magic!"

Charlotte shouted, hugging Langpu's thigh, his eyes filled with determination.

At this moment, he was not only carrying the faith of his fallen teammates but also bearing the will to restore the glory of mages!

Therefore, he must hold tightly onto this thick thigh!

"Damned human."

"Get off!"

Langpu hurriedly shouted.

His Flying spell was not very proficient, and he was pulled off balance by Charlotte, wobbling and landing crookedly on the ground.

Langpu was furious, his face turning red: "How can you humans be so stupid, rude, disgusting..."

However, Charlotte just held onto his thigh tightly, firmly saying: "Lord Langpu, please teach me magic!"

"Even if you kill me, I'll come back again! You should know I can resurrect!"

"Let go first."

Even though Langpu had held a high position for many years, managing the affairs of Ember Nest and having met all kinds of people, he still felt a bit helpless facing someone hugging his thigh.

The humans brought by the Master are indeed a bit special, not only because of their infinite resurrection ability but also their strange and eccentric personalities.

Charlotte finally let go and hurriedly said: "So, can you teach me magic?"

Langpu deliberately pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on his face, his golden eyes narrowing slightly: "It's not impossible."

He rubbed his fingers together.

"But for this precious knowledge, you need to pay some insignificant amount of money and contribution."

"You should understand what I mean."

Charlotte's face immediately lit up with joy.

【【Draconic Bloodline Ogre Mage - Langpu】's personal shop has been opened to you.】

【You need to reach 3,000 faction contributions with 【Ember Nest】 to unlock 【Langpu's Magic Shop】】

Langpu's Magic Shop:

【Mage Hand Scroll】10 gold coins

【Light Spell Scroll】10 gold coins

【Shield Spell Scroll】30 gold coins

【Fly Spell Scroll】100 gold coins

【Fireball Scroll】100 gold coins

【Wall of Fire Scroll】300 gold coins

.........

"This, this is..."

Over a hundred richly diverse magical scrolls appeared before Charlotte, from the lowest-level cantrip 【Mage Hand】 to the noble fourth-level spell 【Wall of Fire】, dazzling him.

At this moment, Charlotte seemed to have arrived in heaven. Even when faced with the daunting prices marked behind the items, he was not afraid, because he saw the future—

Reforging the glory of mages is our unshirkable duty!

Langpu watched Charlotte, whose face was flushed with excitement, and his expression became a bit strange. He wondered if he had set the prices too low; was there room to raise them?

"No, I've already multiplied the market price several times."

"I still need to consult with the Master on how to more efficiently squeeze these guys..."

Langpu pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, thinking secretly.

.........

That night, a hot topic post appeared on the player forum.

"Mage players finally rise! The third unscannable NPC, mage profession mentor 【Draconic Bloodline Ogre Mage - Langpu】 appears! New location 【Dragon Valley】 open!"

This post naturally came from the hand of Charlotte, the guild leader of 【Magic Coin】.

"Mage? Not even a dog would choose that!"

"Look at your pathetic cost-effectiveness, not even as good as a single sorcerer. My sorcerer comes with innate spells; aren't they stronger than the ones you buy with gold coins? Supporting a mage would require your whole guild to fund him, right?"

"Feels inferior to the Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer's scales' natural armor and fire element affinity."

Singo engaged in intense forum debates because he had recently been blocked by enemies. To avoid losing his first life, he could only stay in the safest Tax Collector's dormitory most days.

"Just based on the ability to learn spells infinitely, mages are absolutely stronger than sorcerers in the late game!"

"Sorcerers become turrets in the late game, but we mages remain invincible."

"Reforging the glory of mages is our unshirkable duty!"

"Time to change classes, everyone!"

"It's just that gold coins are scarce now; wait until the mid-game, and we'll beat you, Singo, into a dog."

"Did you guys even look at the prices? The highest-level fourth-level spell scroll is 300 gold coins per scroll; even if you sold me entirely, you couldn't afford it..."

"How much? Three hundred?"

"I'm out, luxury profession; commoners can't play it."

"It's not that mages can't be played, but sorcerers have better cost-effectiveness."

"Anyone want to team up for contribution quests? Let's all become Draconic Bloodline Sorcerers; wouldn't that be great?"

As the discussion in the post continued, the direction gradually shifted. Charlotte stared at the screen intently, his expression becoming more and more ferocious.

"One day, I'll let you classist guys know what a real mage is!"

"Mage Hand!"

With Charlotte's action, a transparent magical hand appeared out of thin air—this was the cantrip scroll he had bought by emptying his savings.

"I can finally cast spells!"

Charlotte was instantly moved to tears, and the members of the 【Magic Coin】 guild behind him celebrated together.
