Wizard: Gou adds some demon hunting in the Steam Age

After working for two hours, Wei En finally consumed all the potion ingredients.

But he didn't buy too much last time, only 10 copies of each potion.

There is one bottle of inferior quality (made while studying), two bottles of excellent quality, three bottles of excellent quality, and four bottles of perfect quality.

Except for keeping two perfect bottles of each magic potion for personal use, the rest must be traded.

Originally, when Wei En chose the potion formula, it was mainly based on practicality, such as the speed potion and the mental surge potion, which were specially used for him in battle.

Disguise potion, concealment potion and underwater breathing potion are all for different scenarios, making it easier for him to perform tasks or run away.

"We should be able to maintain about double the profit."

After some simple calculations, Wei En was quite satisfied with the result.

The gold pounds he earns only need to be able to support his study and experiment needs for a period of time, while ensuring the smooth development of the potion business.

"Is it 10:50?"

Is it already that late?

Wei En looked out the window and didn't know when the deep sea beast had disappeared.

Just like Claire said, Rashim's appearance in the waters near the city of Custer this time was just an accident.

I don’t know how many people had their eyes poked out because they saw Rahim...

Wei En shook his head and stopped thinking about this. Compared with ordinary people, his situation as an outsider was not much better, so it was better to improve his strength as soon as possible.

Then he picked up the card on the table and placed it on his forehead, entering the nightmare world again.

It's just that Wei En, who was obsessed with keeping a low profile, forgot another very important thing...

"Come and take a look, the relics just unearthed from the ruins of the Endel Empire in the Fourth Age, I guarantee...Gah!"

A very short gray figure with a big number 2 on his head. When he saw Wei En's shadow while selling, he froze in fear.

"The red moon is above, this, he, he, he, he, is 27??"

"Shut your mouth and don't rush into this lord."

"Your Excellency, please forgive his ignorance..."

Wei En realized what was going on around him. He had forgotten that he had purchased a six-barrel musket in the initial area when he left last time.

According to Franta, the extraordinary people in the transit area usually leave the nightmare world from there, so that they can ensure that they will appear in the transit area the next time they come in.

More importantly, in less than two days, his origin has increased by 5 points, increasing his number in the nightmare world to 27...

Even in the captain's area, this number is not low, let alone the initial area that spans two areas.

"You guys continue." Wei En's calm voice sounded, once again silencing the people around him.

"..."

When Wei En saw this, he walked helplessly towards the transfer area.

He just scanned around and didn't see Franta's figure, nor did he hear the words "Recover the bodies of the priests of the Church of Dawn", so he had to try his luck in the staging area.

After he walked far away, the extraordinary person behind him breathed a sigh of relief.

"It was so scary. His eyes just looked over and I felt like I was about to disappear."

"Yes, such an origin is really not suitable to appear in the initial area. It will have too great an impact on us."

"The only thing to blame is your poor strength. Like me, it doesn't have much influence." A transcendent person with the number 9 written on his forehead said proudly.

"That is to say, in the nightmare world, you need to abide by the rules of origin supremacy. The real world is waiting to see if I can stab you to death!"

"you--"

Wei En didn't pay too much attention to the sounds of respect, envy, or flattery around him.

If it weren't for the two-digit number on his forehead, he would probably be like these people now, leaning on a low mound with a tombstone in his arms and shouting: Magic potion for sale, perfect level...

Thinking about that scene, it seems quite joyful.

"Transit area..."

Not long after, Wei En passed through the initial area and came to the foot of the tall tower.

Even though he had seen it last time, he still found it incredible when he looked at this tower again.

The entire tower towers into the clouds and is invisible. The diameter of its bottom area is as long as ten kilometers. The square blocks of white masonry are stacked up, which is very spectacular.

But the tower is not intact. There are several clear cracks extending from the top to the bottom, revealing some twisted lines inside.

Vaguely, Wei En recognized a familiar rune node in the crack, the cornerstone rune?

The tower actually also incorporates related runes from the Mechanical School?

This couldn't help but make him curious. Could it be that this tower was not an illusion created by the Nightmare Sect, but actually existed?

Because if it is fake, there is no need to make it so real, even the rune nodes and lines are exposed.

"Your Mightiness?"

"Franta, it's me."

Seeing that it was the Blood Spirit Wizard, Wei En nodded slightly, "Sorry, I wasted some time making the potion. I'm late."

"It's not too late, it's you...how can you do this with your origin?"

Franta stared blankly at the numbers on his forehead. In shock, even his body began to ripple like water waves.

"It's nothing, it's just that my strength has improved a little."

Less, less?

When we first met two days ago, we were only 22...

In two days, the origin increased by 5 levels, and the overall growth rate increased by 50%...

You call this a little? ?

Franta took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He knew that this time it was really fate. Otherwise, how could he be so lucky to meet such a strong man?

"Your Excellency, the quality of the enlightenment potion last time was very good. I wonder if you want to sell it today? I am willing to pay 3 gold pounds and 10 shillings to buy it."

"Why?" Wei En was a little surprised. Someone took the initiative to raise the purchase price... How much money?

Franta explained with a smile: "The perfect potions sold by many potion masters are much higher than others. With your status and strength, you are worthy of such a premium."

This is the strategy he came up with, buying at a premium and equaling status.

It's only ten shillings. If you can gain this person's friendship, no, even if you are just a little more familiar with him than others, the investment will be worth it.

Moreover, his aim was not without purpose. The prices of potions sold by well-known potion masters were higher than those of others.

However, people with their status rarely sell basic magic potions like Enlightenment Potion...

"Thank you very much."

Wei En saw his thoughts, but did not refuse.

The reality of this world is terrible. There is no unprovoked goodwill, but more unprovoked malice.

It was rare for someone to express kindness to him so directly, and he certainly wouldn't mind having one more "acquaintance".

"This time, in addition to the enlightenment potion, I also have several other potions..."

After a while, Wayne sold all the potions to Franta at a premium of about 10%, and signed a transaction contract through the Nightmare Worm.

"I wonder if midnight in two days' time would be convenient for you?"

"Um?"

Franta smiled and said, "That's right. There will be a small party on the 49th floor of the tower in two days. If you have time, I would like to invite you to attend."

Wei En asked with interest: "What kind of party?"

"It was organized by a wizard from the Occult School. Most of the participants are elites from various schools, including many masters of potions."

Wei En thought for a moment, wizards from various schools?

So, there should also be wizards from the Ghost School participating?

"Okay, I agree."

Wayne nodded noncommittally, "It's just that I don't know yet. What do I need to do during the party?"

"This is a private party and you are not required to give anything."

Franta said quickly: "But according to the past rules, everyone will exchange some experiences on the path of wizards, or discuss the latest research that is of current concern."

"I remember that the theme of the last gathering was proposed by the wizard from the occult school. It mainly discussed the methods of defense against the pollution of the red moon. It is very rare."

"Oh? What's the result of the discussion?" Wei En's eyes lit up. If there was a method other than Dawn of Light, he would be very interested.

"Well, not yet..." Franta was a little embarrassed, "The research sequence of Red Moon is too high, and even within the school, only a few people participate."

"However, an extraordinary person who is often at sea mentioned that on an island near the northern continent, there is no red moon hanging high all year round, which is very magical."

"Is there such a place?"

"I also heard him say this at a party. In fact, many people will never leave their respective schools of thought throughout their lives."

Wei En nodded clearly. It sounded like this party was quite interesting. It was what he needed at the moment. "What else?"

Franta: "Also, everyone trades something at every party."

"trade?"

"Yes, it can be epochal relics, knowledge, materials, or research results. Please note that in most cases, it is an exchange of goods, and gold pounds are not used for transactions."

Bartering?

"Then I understand, I will prepare some gadgets in advance."

"I believe that with you joining us, this party will be even more exciting."

"Then, see you in two days."

Franta said respectfully: "Looking forward to your arrival."

Wayne took one last look at the tower before exiting the nightmare world, then opened the card box and put the prepared potions in one by one.

Watching the nightmare worm's palm-sized head swallow dozens of bottles of magic potion in one breath, I was really worried that it might be crushed and damaged during transportation.

There is no risk of broken bottles in this world...

But this time besides selling magic potions, what made him even more happy was the invitation to the party.

After coming to this world for so long, the only wizards he has come into contact with are two. One is the liaison officer of the Intelligence Department, and the other is the shadow.

Well, the former disgusts him, and the latter has been killed by him...

He hoped that this gathering would allow him to get some useful information, and at least establish a relationship with a ghost school wizard and maintain communication.

It didn't take long for Wayne to receive the money - a total of 105 gold pounds.

Originally it could only be sold for about 92 gold pounds, but he didn't expect that Franta would suddenly pay a 10% premium, which made him a lot of money.

In this way, including the remaining money, he had 172 gold pounds and 10 shillings.

"This is the wealth a wizard should have..."

Thinking about how my predecessor saved up the 2 gold pounds to purchase the meditation method by frugally and frugally for several months, the gap is really huge.

After having the money, Wei En submitted an exchange application to the Apprentice Management Office of the Ghost School according to the previously planned list.

There are two defensive spells and four attack spells in total.

The defensive spells are Bone Wall and Mental Shield.

Among the attack spells, two are from the undead system.

One of them is Shadow Coil, which is the spell used by Shadow Ognyan that can stretch out countless arms.

The main reason why he chose this spell was that he hoped to increase his control ability, and the effect of this spell was to trap the enemy in it, making it easier for him to attack.

The second is Undead Claw, which can summon a huge bone claw to attack the enemy.

The remaining two spells are elemental spells from the occult school - fireball and lightning bolt. They are extremely powerful spells that can be learned during the apprenticeship.

Similarly, the rune patterns of these six spells have been confirmed to be hexagram patterns that can be fused with the original runes of the God of Death.

Wei En couldn't help but sigh when he saw that there was less than 40 gold pounds left.

Whether these spells are powerful or not is not mentioned for now, but they are really expensive.

If he hadn't made his first pot of gold through the Secret Blending Department, and the potions he made were profitable enough, I'm afraid he would be like that shadow now, with no original body and only a few spells, right?

Fortunately, after this exchange, within a short period of time, he no longer lacked the means to fight.

In the following time, he only needs to study the runes step by step and learn the knowledge of the Mechanical School from Jerry's Codex, which will be enough to cope with the subsequent battles.

After a while, a sound came from the blue and white box, and the exchanged spell arrived.

Wei En didn't waste any time. After taking out the parchments, he began to draw the runes in an orderly manner according to the previous steps, upgrade the rune levels, and then fuse the original runes of Death...

After the six spells were integrated, it was already 4 o'clock in the morning.

With the lightning and thunder outside the window, Wei En engraved these spells one by one on the two original sub-bodies of the ghost and the secret master.

The number of rune marks on his forehead increased by three each, making the second driver's eyes widen with envy.

[You have successfully branded the Claw of the Undead (God of Death) rune and learned the Claw of the Undead (God of Death), level 1. Comment: Are the bones of giant beasts considered bones? Special rewards: +8 survival points, +2 toughness level, +2 spiritual level. 】

[Note 1: Claw of the Undead (God of Death) Level 1, Spirit consumption 10, Effect: In the name of the God of Death, summon a finger bone of the King of Bones deep in the world of the undead. 】

[Note 2: The attack power of one finger bone of the King of Skeletons is comparable to a captain-level strike. 】

[Note 3: Each time you upgrade to a level, one phalange will be added, and the attack power will be superimposed as the level increases. 】

[You have successfully imprinted the mental shield rune (god of death), learned the rune of mental shield (god of death), and reached level 1. Evaluation...Special rewards: +6 survival points, +3 spiritual level. 】

[Note 1: Spiritual Shield (Reaper) level 1, spiritual consumption 2, effect: can defend against attacks against the origin, soul, and spirit. 】

[Note 2:……]

【You succeeded...】

With Wei En's current mental level of nearly 200, it is not too strenuous to imprint six spell runes at once.

However, the result of fusing the original runes of Death this time made him slightly disappointed.

In addition to the upgrades of Undead Claws and Shadow Coil, which require 50 survival points, Fireball and Lightning Bolt only require 20 points, which is the lowest level required since he obtained the Death Rune.

Correspondingly, both Fireball and Lightning Bolt only add explosion effects and do not add other extraordinary characteristics.

In addition to the high temperature and paralysis characteristics of the spell itself, it is just a matter of changing the two spells from a single attack to a group spell attack.

But the attack power of elemental spells is secondary. The most important thing is that these two spells can give Wei En more choices when facing extraordinary beings with high defense.

Just like Erno before, his long knife can chop bullets, but it is difficult for him to resist elemental spells such as fireballs or lightning bolts.

The high temperature of the fireball technique alone was not something he could ignore.

The two defensive spells, Mental Shield and Bone Wall, only require 30 survival points to upgrade, which is quite satisfactory.

However, from an effect point of view, after the mental shield is amplified by the Death Origin Rune, the defense capability becomes more comprehensive, not only able to resist mental attacks, but also attacks at the soul and origin levels.

As a defensive spell, bone wall also improves its defensive ability. Compared with the first level of fusion, it can summon 2 layers of bone walls... which is better than nothing.

"I didn't expect that the biggest gain would be the claws of the undead and the entanglement of shadows..."

The former can summon the finger bones of the Skeleton King, and its initial power is comparable to a captain-level strike. After upgrading, it can be superimposed to become a very powerful attack spell.

The effect of the latter's shadow entanglement is to expand the range of the summoned shadow. At the same time, the attacks of those arm ghost claws can be added with death characteristics, which complements each other well when combined with the musket attack.

Wei En drank a bottle of enlightenment potion and after recovering his mental strength, he added these spells to level two.

Claws of the Undead (Death) Level 1 (1/50), (2/50)... (50/50).

[Claw of the Undead (God of Death) Level 1 (50/50), should it be improved? 】

【promote. 】

[Congratulations, your skill: Claws of the Undead (God of Death) has been upgraded from level 1 to level 2. Effect: In the name of the God of Death, summon the two finger bones of the King of Bones deep in the world of the dead. 】

[Congratulations, your skill: Shadow Coil (Death) has been upgraded from level 1 to level 2. Effect……】

【……】

[Congratulations, your skill: Corpse Explosion (Death) has been upgraded from level 2 to level 3. Effect……】

[Congratulations, your skill: Soul Devouring Spell Level 3 has been upgraded to Level 4. Effect……】

"There are so many survival points, but there are less than 100 survival points left... To be precise, there are only 15 survival points left..."

This time, Wayne did not save survival points.

In addition to upgrading the six newly learned spells to level 2, he also spent 900 survival points to upgrade the Corpse Explosion (Death) and Soul Devouring spells to one level each.

Ever since he tried the effect of the Soul Devouring Spell last time, he has been thinking about improving the level of the Soul Devouring Spell.

When I killed Ognyan that time, I gained 2 points of origin through devouring it - it was so powerful!

The same is true for the Corpse Explosion Technique, and its actual combat effects are astonishing.

After upgrading to level 3, not only the range of corpse explosion is doubled, but the speed of contamination with death characteristics is also increased a lot.

Wei En glanced at the panel one last time. He was only half the spiritual level away from being promoted to an official wizard...

Dang, Dang Dang...

"Its daybreak?"

Wei En came back from the joy of improving his strength. He opened the curtains and saw the red moon gradually disappearing in the cloudy sky, but the sun did not rise as strangely as the red moon.

Sure enough, only the red moon is the most special...

"Praise be to the dawn."

Even though it was raining, the lamplighter in black robe still came on time.

While praising the greatness of dawn, he carefully opened the lampshade of the street lamp to extinguish the candle flames, and cleaned the lamp oil and wicks for easy lighting before nightfall.

At the same time, there were gradually more pedestrians on the road, adding a bit of life to this silent world.

But more people suffered misfortune last night than before.

In just the past ten minutes, people with gauze wrapped around their heads knocked on the door of Morris Clinic, expecting this highly skilled doctor to treat them.

But unfortunately, compared to Euan, Carly is obviously not very good at medical skills.

Even the Dawn Faith spell she learned was powerless against the monsters of the deep sea, leaving those who came to seek help disappointed.

Wei En stood at the window, looked at the people outside, and murmured: "No one is desperate..."

Most of those who came to seek treatment came calmly. Although they were disappointed after trying, no one cried or despaired.

He just shook his head and sighed, saying that he would try somewhere else before he staggered towards the outside of the golden street.

What a strong group of people...

At this time, Claire's lazy voice came from behind, "Why, do you sympathize with them?"

"I'm not sympathetic, I'm just surprised by their reaction."

Wei En did not look back and stared at a petite woman at the end of the golden street.

She was one of the first people to seek help at the Morris Clinic, holding a newborn baby in her arms.

Even if she couldn't see anything, even if she tripped and fell again and again, the baby was not harmed at all...

"The world is like this. What they need is not sympathy and pity, let alone any bullshit hope. Reality will tell them that living is hope."

Wayne turned his head and glanced at her. Different from before, there was something unexplained in Claire's eyes.

"Maybe... you should have been to many places. Are other city-states the same as here?"

Claire hummed: "Under the red moon, no one is immune."

"Well, I heard that there is a place where there is no red moon..."

"False, there is no such place in this world. Even if there is, it can only be the place of faith of the Red Moon Church."

Wei En nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that he should be more cautious when attending that party.

"You seem to be interested in these..."

[You are targeted by Claire Yuri Biondini’s (body) murderous intent. Comment: Be careful what you say. Reward: +5 survival points. 】

"...As if I didn't say anything."

Wei En curled his lips secretly, she is really a sensitive, suspicious and fickle woman.

"Have you read the treasure book I gave you before?"

"It's not too late..."

Claire glanced at him, "Although I have plenty of time, if you perfunctory me..."

"Today, I will find time to take a look." Before she could finish her words, Wei En immediately raised his hands in surrender, "But what exactly is recorded on it?"

"Part of the historical truth of the Third Era has been told to you before."

"Which part is that? You should know that there is a saying among wizards: 'Don't try to pursue knowledge before the Third Age'?"

"How do I know? I don't know the words inside."

Claire rolled her eyes at him, turned and walked to the shadows aside, "I only know that if you don't complete it according to the contract, the end will not be too comfortable..."

"When I come back in the evening, I will bring you some delicious food, remember to keep it in your stomach."

With that, she disappeared into the shadows of the room.

Not feeling comfortable?

Wei En curled his lips, "I hope you can still say this when I am promoted to an official wizard!"

There is still only one chapter today...I have written an outline of nearly 10,000 words (the evidence has been posted in the group), and the rest will be much smoother.

In addition, don't talk about my word count. I haven't posted the spell content, it's just a brief overview.
