Chapter 408: Magic, oh magic, please fulfill my wish (Girl praying)
After some sorting, Lin Zhenxi finally came up with a list of all the magic materials she needed to collect. She slammed the list, which took up almost half a page of parchment, onto the table, pinching her chin as she looked at the list in front of her and began to worry.
There are so many...it seems so troublesome.
Or, just quit? Just do what Liz Nightingale did and give that blonde girl a synthetic body. It'll work, but the soul and body won't fit together, requiring at least two years or a lifetime to adjust. And the mobility will definitely be inferior to the original.
In that case, life will definitely be fine, but I'm afraid I won't be able to continue working as a special envoy in the future.
emmmm
Lin Zhenxi thought about it from another perspective. If he were faced with such a situation now, with an optimal solution clearly before his eyes, but because the people who could help were lazy and found it troublesome, he turned his recovered state into a disabled person who needed rehabilitation and might have difficulty moving his hands and feet for the rest of his life, how devastated he would be.
Well, this isn't good. You can't be so dishonest in your conduct. Since I've taken this on, I'll do my best.
So Lin Zhenxi rolled up the parchment, put it aside, and walked into the bathroom.
It's time to wash up and go to bed.
Nothing happened that night. The next day, Lin Zhenxi struggled to get out of bed, changed into sportswear, and yawned as she dragged her sleepy black cat out for a run. After running and buying breakfast, she came back to take a shower, then walked through the long urban green garden to the company, punched in and started her new day's work.
It was a very ordinary day, just like every day for her now, nothing special about it.
When Lin Zhenxi stepped into the office, her personal terminal vibrated, reminding her that she had been absent from work for an afternoon yesterday, and her vacation time was reduced by half a day, so she now had more than 3,000 days of vacation left.
Ahahaha, it feels like I have too much money and can't spend it at all. It's really frustrating.
Lin Zhenxi has only been working for thirteen years, so why is her vacation time almost the same as her employment time? Because the time she spent in the other world on commissions was all counted as overtime, and it was a long day shift, so one day there was like two days. In other words, the longer she was in the other world, the more vacation time she got in the main world.
So, in reality, special envoys don't have to work at all; their vacation time is enough to completely cover their stay in the main world. This is also why Lin Zhenxi's colleagues are able to live so carefree and unrestrained. With money, free time, no one to supervise them, and extraordinary powers at their disposal, it's unlikely that many people would be able to resist falling into depravity.
Day 1: I want to be a superman who saves the world.
Day 2: Fuck Superman, I’m an ancestor.
Day 3: What ancestors? I’m killing people indiscriminately.
After the fourth day: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
That's probably the scenario. If it weren't for the "company's" rules and regulations that protected their moral bottom line, they would have already turned the main world upside down. Of course, the more likely scenario is that the special commissioners split into two camps, the lawful and the disorderly, and then the two groups would directly fight each other to the death, with the victor having the final say.
But what can you do without work? Lin Zhenxi doesn't like the ideas and practices of her colleagues who are more relaxed and free-spirited. People need to have a proper job. Without a class, their mental state will be affected. So even if she can't use up all her vacation time, Lin Zhenxi still habitually comes to work every day when she is in the main world, just to find something serious to do.
Arriving at the office, Lin Zhenxi spread the parchment he had prepared yesterday on the desk, and then began the first step of trying to use magic to transform ordinary materials that had no mystery into magical materials.
Magic Spring? No, Magic Spring is a clear spring water that contains magic. Lin Zhenxi can get a similar effect by pouring magic into a bucket of mineral water. However, because the magic spring carries magic, the magic dissipates more slowly. In terms of effect, it is the same as mineral water containing magic.
If you want to try, start with the more difficult ones. The decision is yours, turkey... no, the ashes after the Phoenix burns.
The mention of the phoenix brought back memories of the foe she'd painstakingly defeated in the Mochizuki difficulty level celebration world: the "Incarnation of Fujiwara no Moeko." Her power seemed to derive from the flames of the phoenix. According to the wizarding world, she was a humanoid phoenix.
So it’s not actually wrong for Kaguya Houraisan to say that she is a turkey. It’s just that it doesn’t sound good and the person involved is unwilling to admit it.
Lin Zhenxi couldn't really say she knew nothing about phoenixes. After all, she had seen a real one in the wizarding world, and it happened to be a phoenix in its most beautiful state in its prime. Back then, the giant bird, its entire body a fiery red, with feathers shimmering with colorful light, left a deep impression on Lin Zhenxi.
If Lin Zhenxi hadn't felt that she was no match for the phoenix at that time, she would have plucked a feather from the phoenix's butt.
However, Lin Zhenxi did not have the Space Cube at that time, so even if he got it, he could not bring it back. Instead, he might make enemies with the most powerful white wizard in the world, and his situation would become very dangerous.
Although she resisted the urge to touch him, Lin Zhenxi didn't hide her passion for the Phoenix at all. After all, the bird was indeed extremely beautiful at the time. In the eyes of the then 17-year-old Lin Zhenxi, its beauty was even better than the holy LSP unicorn.
After all, what you can't get is the best. The unicorn that Lin Zhenxi met chased her and licked her, but she despised it. The phoenix was so cold that it even refused to let Lin Zhenxi touch it, which is why she couldn't forget it.
With Lin Zhenxi's current strength, she can basically sweep the wizarding world. Maybe she can find that old Deng... Oh no, it's Old Deng who wants to come to the Phoenix to have a good rub and see if the flames on the Phoenix are really not hot.
However, Lin Zhenxi thought about it carefully and realized that he seemed to have oversimplified the wizarding world. Although the timeline there had developed to the modern era and the mysteries had declined drastically, not only had the gods disappeared, but wizards had become a group of pariahs who could only twirl small wooden sticks, but that world had indeed existed during the Age of Gods.
In the ancient days of that world, gods walked the land, wielding force and vying for faith. Wizards wielded the power of heaven and earth, practically on par with the gods. Though that era is long gone, Lin Zhenxi still glimpses of that distant era through written records.
In that world, all myths and legends are likely stories that happened in the past, which means that the mystery level of that world is quite high, but it declined for some unknown reason.
But just like the ebb and flow of the ocean tide, Lin Zhenxi believed that mystery also has its ebb and flow. The wizarding world is simply at a low point in its mystery right now, and who knows when the mystery will return. And when that time comes, those lost gods and ancient wizard traditions might even reappear.
In short, it was a world of deep waters. Even though Lin Zhenxi had become much stronger, if he wasn't careful, he could still capsize. Neither carelessness nor arrogance was advisable; only by being careful and cautious could one sail safely for eternity.
Lin Zhenxi certainly doesn’t have a phoenix on hand now, but she has a golden pheasant, which is the bird that looks most like a phoenix that she can find in the main world.
To be precise, she can buy golden pheasant feathers, and it is very convenient. She only needs to place an order through the internal procurement platform of the "company". Within a few minutes, what she needs will be delivered to her door by a delivery robot. It is very convenient.
This platform allows purchases to be made with both cash and company contribution points, and many items can only be purchased with contribution points. Before Lin Zhenxi went to Saitama's world, she had purchased many items through the "company's" internal procurement platform. She spent her ten years of savings on it, so much so that after returning, she even had to pay back for a ride on the hovercar.
The company's internal logistics and distribution system was incredibly powerful and discreetly constructed. Lin Zhenxi had never seen a delivery robot, but whatever she bought from the platform arrived at her doorstep so quickly it made one suspect the delivery station was right next door. She mentioned this to Yan Qing, who explained that she'd experienced the same thing: deliveries took no more than five minutes, and were delivered directly to the door, practically shoving it into the buyer's arms.
This shows that the "company's" logistics and distribution capabilities are only able to deliver to the door within five minutes, and it is not because Lin Zhenxi is special.
A few minutes after Lin Zhenxi placed the order, there was a knock on her office door. When Lin Zhenxi opened the door, there was only a long cardboard box at the door with a sticky note on it with her name and order number written on it.
Lin Zhenxi unpacked the goods, pulled out a few golden pheasant feathers from it, and held them in his hand.
Okay, now we have the basic materials, what should we do next?
Lin Zhenxi has a lot of experience in praying to magic, but in the past she only prayed to magic to help her release magic. It was the first time for her to pray to magic to give mystery to the object in her hand, like today.
Anyway, let's give it a try. Lin Zhenxi cleaned up his office, set up a fire-proof magic barrier, and then walked into the magic circle holding a pheasant's tail feather.
She closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and expressed her demands clearly to the magic power, while at the same time began to infuse the magic power into the hand holding the feather.
In this way, she took another step forward in using magic.
