The second volume of evil magic wand 013. Magic Wand

  "Roland Academy's entrance exam?" The duchess thought for a moment, saying, "You wanting to go to Roland Academy is fine, after all our Green family has never had a magician in the past, and your cultivation hasn't been of much use to the family either. So if you want to go, then just go, anyway these days you've been staying at the church every day, I'm already used to it."

  Du Fan smiled and said: "Mom, thank you, I'll go take the entrance exam now. Don't worry, I definitely won't bring shame to our Green family."

  "The duchess sighed and said in a low voice, 'Go ahead... with your current abilities, if you can't even pass the entrance exam, then don't come back to see me.'"

  "Got it!"

  Du Fan slightly bowed and quickly retreated.

  Looking in the direction where Du Fan left, the Duchess frowned and tapped her fingers on the table: "Breaking through the third level of magic and martial arts within three months... This speed is too exaggerated. If it's just relying on Mirak's medicine, it's absolutely impossible to have this effect. Could it be that Little Fan has some other encounter? ... Do I need to investigate? Forget it, with that kid's personality, no matter what he does, he will never lose out..."

  The faint sunlight of the afternoon fell on the earth, and the prosperous imperial capital of the Ka Wen Empire was bustling with people coming and going everywhere.

  Merchants coming and going from the south to the north, placed all sorts of local specialties from the Roland continent at street corners. Young masters and ladies wearing luxurious noble attire, walked in the center of the main road with their noses up, surrounded by servants.

  Apart from this, some beggars who looked extremely dispirited crouched at the foot of the wall, their lifeless eyes scanning passersby back and forth.

  This place is the commercial district of the Imperial City, and unlike the noble district where Dufan lives, this place perfectly captures the prosperity and decadence of the Imperial City.

  Du Fan wore a simple Taoist robe and walked on the street, not drawing attention to himself. He rubbed the ring in his hand, having already circled the streets many times, but he still hadn't decided which store to enter to sell the magic stone in his hand. After all, this was his first time doing such a thing, and he wasn't familiar with it.

  He finally walked to the entrance of a large-looking weapon shop, hesitated for a moment before walking in, after all, this was the largest one he had compared in the nearby area.

  As soon as Du Fan stepped into the doorway of the weapon shop, he felt a gust of cold wind hit him in the face, causing him to shiver involuntarily. He narrowed his eyes and looked around the store for a few moments before confirming that this cold wind was caused by the effects of several small magic arrays set up inside the store. It was probably arranged by someone to ensure the cleanliness and freshness of the weapon shop.

  The storefront of the weapon shop looked quite large, with several young men dressed as nobles pointing and gesturing, and some who appeared to be mercenaries loudly negotiating prices for various weapons with the owner.

  As someone walked into the weapon shop, a servant who was originally standing at one side of the entrance hurried over, sizing Du Fan up and down before saying: "Esteemed priest, I don't know what I can help you with."

  Du Fan looked around the store with his hands behind his back before asking, "Do you have any high-quality magic wands in your store?"

  The waiter was slightly stunned, although a little surprised, but because the clergy of the Holy See generally knew some light system healing magic, he didn't overreact. He just bowed and said: "Respected sir, would you mind coming with me to the inner hall? Although there are also weapons for sale in this outer hall, I'm sure you know that magic wands are rare, so it's not possible to display them here."

  Du Fan nodded and said, "Then you lead the way."

  The servant made a gesture and led Du Fan into the inner hall through a small door.

  Inside this hall there is nothing redundant, only a low table that looks extremely valuable and a set of sofas.

  When Du Fan sat down on the sofa, the waiter finally brought over a cup of red tea and retreated with his head bowed.

  It wasn't until then that Du Fan had time to carefully examine the inner hall.

  It's possible that for confidentiality reasons, this inner hall had no doors or windows except for the small entrance door. Although the various decorations on the walls looked exquisite, Du Fan could vaguely recognize that the ordinary-looking floral patterns seemed to be symbols of some kind of magic array.

  However, in a place like this, it's not surprising that the owner of the weapon shop would have such an arrangement. After all, not every customer is extremely honest, and on this continent where strength is everything, cases of murder and robbery are not uncommon.

  After a few minutes, the small door was pushed open again, and a middle-aged man who looked as fat as a pig squeezed in. He waved at Du Fan from afar, and after sitting down on the sofa, he smiled and said: "This guest looks unfamiliar, it seems you're also here for the first time, what do you need?"

  Du Fan's hooded cloak did a good job of concealing his expression, and he said in a calm tone, "I need a slightly better quality magic wand, I just don't know if you have one here."

  "Looks like you're quite the magician, sir. And you've got a good eye for it too - not just in this commercial district, but probably in the entire Imperial City, I'd wager there's no other shop besides ours that sells magic wands. I'm sure you're aware that magic wands are extremely rare to begin with, and even fewer are put up for sale. But as luck would have it, we've recently received a new shipment of high-quality goods - the question is, are you interested?"

  This thing, the magic wand, apart from the trouble of making the material, the most important thing is that except for alchemists, no one else can make a magic wand. Even most weapons and equipment with magical properties, except for alchemists, no one else can make them either. Dufan naturally understood this, so he also knew that good magic wands are hard to come by.

  At this time, he was also hooked by the fat man, so he nodded and said, "Then trouble you."

  Chubby smiled slightly, raised his hand and patted it lightly. After a moment, several servants walked in with boxes, and after putting them down, they quickly retreated.

  The tray extended its hand and gently stroked the three boxes on it for a moment before slowly opening one of them.

  As he moved, a faint magical wave came rushing over, Du Fan narrowed his eyes and looked past it, only to see that what appeared in the box was a wand that looked as black as ink, made of soft peach wood, with magic runes drawn all over it, and at the tip of the wand seemed to be embedded a small piece of magic stone, which further enhanced the magical power's amplitude effect.

  Perhaps sensing Du Fan's interest in the magic wand, the fat man slowly pulled out the magic wand and waved it a few times in front of him before saying: "This is a second-level magic wand with a certain magical amplitude effect. It was recently taken out for sale by a descendant of a magician, and we bought it for 500 gold coins at the time. If you're interested, we won't make a single coin from it, what do you say?"

  Du Fan smiled faintly and said, "Boss, are you looking down on me? I reckon this is the cheapest wand in your store. If I wanted something like this, why would I come to your store to buy it? In my personal opinion, boss, why don't you just take out the best quality wand in your store?"

  Fatso burst out laughing and said: "You're indeed a clever person, since you've already said so, I won't take out other rubbish to scare people with. Come on! Bring that thing over here for me!"

  Several waiters walked in from the door and took down several boxes on the table, and it wasn't until after a while that someone put a jade box on the table.

  This time, the fatty didn't open the box himself, but instead pushed the jade box towards Du Fan's direction and made a "please help yourself" gesture.

  Du Fan's heart had a few doubts, and he didn't hesitate to open the jade box. He couldn't help but stare blankly.

  All that could be seen was a faint green glow emanating from within the box, accompanied by an intense magical fluctuation that was impossible to ignore.

  Du Fan couldn't help but glance at the magic wand with a hint of surprise and admiration.

  All that can be seen is that this magic wand looks only as long as a normal person's forearm, on the surface of the dark green wand, there are faint magical symbols drawn, and at both ends of the wand, each inlaid with a round magic stone. These two magic stones combined with the symbols on the wand formed a magic array, but Dufan didn't recognize what kind of magic array it was for a while.

  "How is this possible!"

  Chenchen let out a cry of surprise in Du Fan's mind.

  Du Fan was taken aback and hastily asked in his mind: "Chen Chen, what's going on?"

  After a moment, Chenchen sighed and said: "This... the magic array on this staff is a seventh-level magic array. Although this staff can only be said to be ordinary, after adding that magic array, it's unknown how many times stronger it has become."

  "What is this magic array for?"

  Chen Chen seemed to hesitate for a moment before saying, "If I'm not mistaken, this magic array has another effect besides amplifying magic power - it reduces the chanting time of spells below level 7. For magicians, this is probably the most useful and effective result..."
