Chapter 75 - Chapter 76 The True Use of Papermaking, Scroll Making

In the blink of an eye.

Over a dozen magic messages appeared on the attribute panel.

Nolan raised his forehead slightly; it was his first time seeing so many spells at once.

Only...

He observed that all these spells were first-tier magic, and they were all non-offensive, even mixed with a few zero-tier life spells.

"Teacher."

"Teacher."

"Teacher."

...

"Teacher."

The dozen or so spellcasters present, noticing the arrival of Master Berory and Nolan, immediately looked up and spoke respectfully.

However, most of their gazes fell on Nolan, who was a complete stranger to them.

Feeling the gaze of these eyes.

Nolan bowed slightly, trying his best to show a friendly smile.

Master Berory walked down the stairs, waved his hand at everyone, signaling them to continue with their work.

"How much do you know about making magic scrolls?" Master Berory asked calmly.

I don't know anything at all!

Nolan remained silent.

"Heh."

Master Berory chuckled, his voice carrying a strange and somewhat inexplicable tone: "Many people spend a lot of time and effort trying to learn the second-tier 'Papermaking' spell with no results."

"Some people, however, can master it effortlessly, even casting it perfectly."

"Is it a difference in talent?"

When he spoke the last few words, Master Berory's voice remained calm, but it became much softer, as if he was muttering to himself.

As expected.

"'Papermaking' is related to making magic scrolls?" Nolan thought to himself, feigning surprise on his face.

He had actually had a guess just now, but confirming it still surprised him a little.

Moreover.

What made him even more surprised was that Master Berory would tell him so easily, and even bring him to this place, which was clearly the core of the Mage Guild, where magic scrolls were made.

"It seems you really don't understand anything."

"To be precise, it's the second-tier 'Papermaking' that is related to the making of magic scrolls."

Master Berory turned his head, glanced at Nolan behind him, and continued indifferently:

"Don't be so surprised. The methods for making first-tier and second-tier magic scrolls are not considered secrets to various countries."

The two walked down the stairs.

Master Berory raised his finger and gestured around at everyone in the hall: "The magic scrolls you bought before were made by these fellows. How were they to use?"

Nolan absorbed the unfamiliar information while saying, "Very good."

"Don't try to save their face."

"They only make some ordinary stuff, mere first-tier magic scrolls with no offensive power, and such a high failure rate."

Master Berory's cold mockery was merciless.

As soon as these words landed.

Bang!

A loud sound exploded, like a magical power uncontrolled, and at the same time, a strange burnt smell filled the air.

"Ah!"

A cry of pain, a magic caster not far from Nolan was knocked to the ground by the impact.

The other party didn't seem to be injured and quickly got up from the ground, likely having prepared some magical protection beforehand, but his appearance was somewhat disheveled.

At this moment.

This magic caster, noticing the gaze of everyone in the entire hall, immediately blushed.

He lowered his head in shame, not daring to look at Master Berory at all.

"Useless waste, only knows how to squander materials!"

"What are you standing there for? Get back to it!"

Master Berory's voice was still very calm, but his words were anything but polite.

For a moment, all the spellcasters present quickly lowered their heads and continued with their tasks.

No wonder there was a strange smell in the air.

A look of understanding flashed across Nolan's face, his expression slightly odd.

The commotion just now was not small, yet the hall where the front desk was located had always been very quiet; there must have been some kind of sound-dampening magic in place.

"Since you don't know much about making magic scrolls, you should have heard of alchemists, right?"

"A qualified alchemist needs to understand a lot of herb knowledge, know the properties of each herb, how to combine them, secret formulas, and so on."

"Only then can even the most ordinary alchemist make potions through effort. But the making of magic scrolls is different; it inherently has a threshold."

"If the difficulty of becoming an alchemist is one, then the difficulty of making magic scrolls is ten."

Master Berory said calmly, then continued: "This is not an exaggeration. You first have to be a magic caster."

"To make 'Fusion' magic scrolls, you must master this spell, but a magic caster's time and energy are limited."

"Making second-tier magic scrolls requires mastering second-tier magic, and so on. At this level, it's no longer something you can decide by effort, but by talent."

"You also need to master various scroll-making techniques, otherwise, it will be like the situation just now."

Is making magic scrolls that complicated?

Nolan wasn't particularly clear about the situation of making magic scrolls in the "YGGDRASIL" game.

But at least the scroll-making craftsmanship of humans before him was indeed extremely difficult for people of another world.

The level restriction alone was enough to suppress the birth of higher-tier magic scrolls!

"Thank you for your explanation," Nolan said.

"Follow me."

Master Berory lifted his foot and walked further inside.

Nolan followed.

Soon.

Master Berory stopped in front of a middle-aged male mage, who looked to be around 40 years old.

Beside him were placed pure white papers, with that unique faint magical luster and resilience, precisely the paper made with the second-tier spell "Papermaking."

This middle-aged mage was carefully selecting ten pure white papers and placing them into a container filled with a faint golden liquid.

As the paper gradually became soaked in the liquid.

The middle-aged mage quickly pulled out a piece of parchment from one side and swiftly placed it into the container as well: "Scroll Creation!"

Instantly!

With a flash of white light,

The parchment and white paper in the box fused together, transforming into a thick, gray parchment scroll.

After creating the parchment scroll, the middle-aged mage finally let out a slight breath, quickly turned around to look at Master Berory, and respectfully said: "Teacher."

After speaking.

This middle-aged mage then showed Nolan a kind smile.

And at this moment.

The information on the attribute panel also appeared.

'Discovered skill "Scroll Creation", requires Magic Caster profession, current conditions met.'

'Do you want to spend 1 skill point to learn?'

Only requires the Magic Caster profession, no related production profession requirements?

A hint of surprise flashed in Nolan's eyes.

In "YGGDRASIL", scroll-making technology belonged to the production profession system.

There were related production professions like "Alchemist" and "Blacksmith."

But surprisingly, it wasn't needed here!

This indicated that the scroll-making technology used by the middle-aged man was created or improved by humans themselves!

"Learn."

Nolan immediately thought silently, without any hesitation.
