Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 19 Storage Black Ring
"too expensive!"

At this point, Paul's attention had shifted from weapon durability to price.

He couldn't tell the weapon's durability, so he could only hope that Ronan would be lucky enough to buy a dagger with good durability.

Next, he will have to bargain with the vendor.

As a fallen nobleman, he often bargained when buying witchcraft materials in Triumph City in order to save money in the early days.

He thought to himself that his bargaining skills were even better than his magical abilities.

After a heated argument with the vendor, Paul finally paid seven valant coins for the dagger.

This dagger was originally unsheathed, but Paul persisted with the vendor until he got a sheath made of ebony.

Ronan sheathed the dagger and hid it in his waist pouch.

After strolling around Diagon Alley with Paul for a while, we left.

……

For the next few days, Ronan spent almost all his time holed up in the attic.

Qi refining, growth enhancement, talisman drawing, and medicine making.

My days were very fulfilling.

Although the sapling of the immortal tree has only grown a few millimeters, its vitality is growing stronger and stronger.

It continuously refined the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and gave half of it to Ronan.

Paul brought him another Tier 1 potion recipe, the Dark Elixir.

With prolonged use of this medicine, the skin can become translucent and radiant.

Its success rate in refining is only slightly higher than that of the anti-aging agent, making it a first-tier magic potion with a relatively low success rate.

Ronan took the time to refine some and sell it to Paul.

Based on his past life experience, Ronan felt that the market response to this dark spot remover would be good.

And it turned out to be true.

Paul reported that when he and his associates sold the dark spot remover, they labeled it as "made by an anti-aging alchemist," and it immediately became a bestseller.

Ronan spent more time refining anti-aging and skin-lightening agents, and the speed at which money came in also accelerated.

The three thousand gold coins that were originally expected to take two months to raise can now be raised in about half a month.

In the early morning, Ronan sat cross-legged on his bed, breathing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Ronan used his divine sense to scan the room and immediately knew that it was Paul who was knocking on the door.

"Who?"

"Your close friend, Paul Wilson!"

Ronan opened the door and let Paul in.

"What is it?" Ronan asked after locking the door.

Paul exclaimed excitedly, "Great news!"

Have you ever heard of the Howard family?

Ronan nodded: "I've heard of it, a wizarding family."

"Hehe." Paul chuckled. "Do you remember the Necromancer's Society I mentioned to you before?"

"It's the organization that recruits people who failed the college's qualification test."

Ronan certainly remembered that when Paul first mentioned the organization, he felt a mix of relief and sadness that it hadn't invited him to join.

"Following the clues provided by the informant, the Kingdom's Wizarding Council investigated further and discovered that the Howard family was actually connected with the Necropolis."

"The Necromancers' base of operations in Triumph City was provided by the Howard family."

"After this was discovered, the Wizarding Council's law enforcement wizards stormed the Howard family with lightning speed."

"The entire clan perished without exception."

"At His Majesty's command, after a trial, both men and women were sent to the guillotine."

"The items left behind by the Howard family will be auctioned at the 'Weis Auction House' in Midtown the day after tomorrow."

"The Howard family ranks among the top ten wizarding families in Triumph City, so they must have a lot of storage artifacts."

“Perhaps we can find a bargain at the auction and buy a storage artifact at a lower price.” Ronan knew what Paul meant.

At auctions of Howard family heirlooms, most people's attention is focused on the high-level magical artifacts.

Those who go to the auction usually keep enough money in mind, hoping to win those high-level magical artifacts that are priceless and have no market value in one fell swoop.

It was just an ordinary storage artifact, and the people who went to the auction didn't care much about it.

This gave him the opportunity to take advantage of a loophole.

“However, only registered wizards are allowed to enter the auction,” Paul said.

"Give me the money, and I can go in and auction it for you."

"it is good."

Ronan agreed; he never wanted to be in the public eye.

He took a certificate from the bookshelf and wrote an authorization letter on parchment, signing his name, affixing his fingerprint, and stamping it with the family crest.

"Go to Lanny's vault and get the gold coins for me."

Ronan handed the credentials and authorization letter to Paul as he spoke.

Lanny Vault is a bank in Triumph City, owned by members of the Augustan royal family, located in the central city.

Ronan had an account there and stored most of his gold coins in it.

"Don't you dare use my money to buy your things," Ronan added as a reminder.

"Don't worry, Ronan, I cherish our friendship very much!" Paul accepted the credentials and authorization letter.

……

Time flies, and two days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Ronan was drawing a talisman when he heard a knock on the door.

After transferring the object used for drawing talismans to the cultivation world and then returning, a quick scan with divine sense revealed that it was Paul.

"Who?"

"Your good news is brought to you by your dear friend, Paul Wilson!"

Ronan opened the door, and Paul bounced in.

After Ronan locked the door, Paul took out a black jade ring tied with a red string from his waist pouch.

"Ronan, my good friend, I have not failed you!" Paul exclaimed excitedly.

"This black jade ring is a storage artifact made from Soul-Soothing Jade and then imbued with spatial magic."

"Not only does it contain a cubic meter of storage space, but it also has a calming and soothing effect."

Have you ever heard of the famous 'Celia Howard'?

"She is the wife of the eldest son of the Howard family. She is very beautiful and charming. Although she is nearly forty years old, she still has the youthful appearance of a woman in her twenties. She has had affairs with many high-ranking officials and high-ranking wizards in Triumph City."

"This ring is her storage and calming magical artifact, and it is always worn on her chest."

"It's a pity that our King, Augustus V, was so determined to punish cultists."

"Such a beautiful lady, yet she still lost her head."

"Selia Howard attracted countless elites during her lifetime, and many people sought her out but could not obtain her."

"But now that she is a headless corpse, people suddenly feel that she was dirty in life."

"Her personal belongings became objects of bad luck."

“At the auction, not many people were willing to bid.”

“These secondhand storage rings, which are one cubic meter in size, generally cost at least seven thousand valant gold coins.”

"Guess how much I paid you to buy it."

Paul remained silent, looking at Ronan.

“I’m just a kid, why would I guess?” Ronan immediately retorted.

“Ronan, you’re so boring!” Paul revealed the answer:

Three thousand five hundred gold coins!
