Chapter 51 (1/2)
Chapter 51: Eye of Magic Power
He hurried to extinguish the fire, but the knight novel had already been half-burnt.
The title of the novel was The Expedition of Vulture Knight Stevenlend. Technically, it was more like a chronological history book that described the experience of Stevenlend Vulture who expanded the territory of the High Furnace Castle on his dragon-bred vulture.
The story was boring, but the description was detailed.
It was quite unique among the made-up knight novels. Liszt had read it many times and believed that it was probably true.
The Vulture family probably still existed in the High Furnace Castle.
What a shame. It’s a great book. I wonder if I can get a new copy from Tulip Castle next time. Liszt was quite regretful with the burnt book.
It was not easy to find a decent book.
Suddenly, he raised his eyebrow, as he saw the gold color below the burnt cover of the book indicating that something was hidden below.
He ripped the cover apart and revealed the gold color inside.
Something is indeed hidden! Liszt’s regret was replaced by surprise. This must be the forgotten technique of combat aura technique!
The reward for the wheat insect had been delivered tonight.
After the cover was entirely ripped off, he saw a piece of gold paper the size of a palm. It was not real paper but a film that was made of a material similar to gold. A lot of tiny words and an illustration were engraved on it.
Eye of Magic Power, by Stevenlend Vulture. Words of slightly larger size were on the top of the paper.
It’s indeed a secret technique. The novel I was given must be extraordinary if not unique. This gold film equals a gold coin. I don’t think every copy of the novel has such a piece of paper.
He moved his eyes away and focused on the bookshelf in the study. These books contain the information of the invisible dragon and Eye of Magic Power. Is there anything else hidden in them?
To confirm his idea, he cut the cover of every novel with a knife.
However, he did not discover anything hidden.
Apparently, it was the only secret technique.
Eye of Magic Power is quite intricate. It’s much more complicated than common skills… It’s rather hard to learn.
Liszt had never considered himself a stupid man.
He learned Dragon Drill and Fire Dragon quickly, and he was planning to learn archery after Marcus. He preferred ranged attacks.
Should I learn Eye of Magic Power later?
However, after he read the introduction to Eye of Magic Power, he disapproved the idea.
It said, Eye of Magic Power can see the circulation of magic. Even a great sorcerer cannot hide himself under Eye of Magic Power.
He immediately understood that the technique was still part of the quest about the invisible dragon. Does this mean that I can see the invisible dragon after I grasp Eye of Magic Power?
Now, Liszt knew very well what he needed to do next.
He tested the scent of the smoking grass first and discovered that the juice of the grass stank even more when it was burnt.
He had someone cut a batch of smoking grass and build a tower in the Cow Farm, planning to attract the invisible dragon by burning the smoking grass.
