Chapter Thirty-Four: The Extraordinary Road to Krypton
"Can you buy potion recipes with money?"
"Yes, the Extraordinary also want to live, and also to buy the potion recipes and the corresponding extraordinary materials, even magical items, that they need. ”
"How much does that cost?"
"Hehe, I don't think you want to hear it now. For example, the Potion recipe for Sequence 9 is generally around 200 gold pounds, while the potion recipe for Sequence 8 is around 500 gold pounds. Of course, if it is a black-hearted businessman, it will also increase by tens of gold pounds. ”
Oh my God, it's so expensive! Chris's eyes widened, he had saved up all his fortune for three years, but it was only a few tens of halso, and it was less than three gold pounds, and now he was told that the potion recipe for Sequence 8 cost 500 gold pounds, 500 shiny gold coins!
This is not even the price of the potion materials! Although the teacher didn't say how many gold pounds the materials were, no matter how much he thought about it, he knew that it would not be much cheaper than the formula, and maybe even more expensive!
Oliver looked at Chris's somewhat frightened expression, and decided not to tease this newly recruited little disciple, it would not be good to scare him away, and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, it will definitely be a friendly price to buy from a friend for a teacher. ”
Chris's heart is roaring, just like Louis Vuitton and Hermes, no matter how discounted it is, it won't be much cheaper!
"Don't worry, at the beginning, you can lend you the gold coins on the potion recipe and extraordinary materials, believe in yourself, and you will be very rich in the future. ”
Oliver laughed a little and added, "By the time you get to Sequence 7, you'll be very rich." ”
"Sequence 7? I remember the teacher said, 'mechanical'?"
Listening to the name, you know that it should be making something, is it a steam engine, a steam train? Is it a money to make money? No! It should be related to the extraordinary.
"Yes, 'mechanician', also known as the master of gears, the expert in mechanical work. His special abilities will be known when you get to Sequence 7. Moreover, you asked me to help you identify the 'doctor' potion recipe before, just when you have 200 gold pounds in my savings. ”
Chris knew that this was the teacher's indirect help to him, but he didn't expect that he had a fortune of 200 gold pounds in an instant, and before he had time to be happy for a few seconds, he thought that he had made a mistake this time, and next time he would have to buy the potion formula and extraordinary materials by himself, although it was not clear how much it was, but it was definitely worth a lot of money.
When Chris thought of this, he sighed in his heart again, "Is it my life of being poor?"
Immediately he suddenly thought of something, immediately picked up the pen on the table, and silently wrote the potion recipes for "cultivator" and "listener" on white paper.
After all, the teacher-student relationship has been determined, and Chris clearly feels the teacher's kindness, so he is not hiding it from the other party.
Most importantly, it also helps Bert and Bonnie choose the extraordinary path that suits them.
Oliver picked up the paper Chris handed him and lifted the gold openwork glasses on the bridge of his nose, his dark blue eyes containing starlight.
This time, he didn't hide Chris, and directly stretched out his right hand, only to see Oliver's right palm quickly forming a slowly rotating star sand. One star after another emerged, causing the starlight to fall on the paper, only to see the white paper gradually dissolve in the starlight.
Immediately after Oliver closed his eyes, and after a few seconds, he opened his blue eyes, looked at Chris with his mouth open, and smiled:
"Both potion recipes are accurate. ”
Chris looked at the teacher whose palm starlight had disappeared and muttered, "This is the teacher's extraordinary ability?"
"It's just a small ability, by communicating with the stars of the astral plane, divining the correctness of things related to oneself. ”
What Oliver didn't say was that if he controlled the stars in his hand, the giant pillars of light that converged could envelop a certain area of space. Causes the target enemy to be dissolved by Starlight, and the crash dissolves.
This is also one of the core extraordinary abilities of being a Sequence 5 "Astrologer".
"Of course, you have 600 gold pounds by now. ”
In fact, Oliver already had the potion recipe for Sequence 9 "The Cultivator", but considering the financial situation of his disciple, he did not say it.
"Then I wonder if these three potion recipes are all Sequence 9?"
"Yes. Oliver seemed to find what Chris wanted to ask, "Those two friends of yours want to choose between this?"
Chris nodded, "Bert is interested in the extraordinary abilities of the 'reader,' and Bonnie wants to be a doctor. Teacher, do you have any suggestions?"
Oliver pondered for a few seconds and said, "I don't know much about the middle and high levels of these two extraordinary paths, but I still know some of the low-level sequences. ”
"Compared to the safe 'doctor', the low-level sequence of 'listener' is dangerous.
"Of course, the 'listener' in the early stage is also much more powerful than the 'doctor'. It can even be said that the 'listener' is one of the few ways that have strong combat capabilities in the early stage of all extraordinary paths.
"Compared to your 'scholars' and my 'readers', they are more inclined to support in the early stage, and they don't have strong combat capabilities. ”
"Teacher, do you know what each extraordinary path is called?"
"The name of the sequence 9 at the beginning of each pathway, which is the name of the sequence pathway that most of the Extraordinary people refer to as the sequence pathway they represent. And from the name of the sequence, you can roughly guess some of the abilities of the sequence, whether they are biased towards combat or support. ”
Chris thought about the name of his sequential pathway, and couldn't help but wonder why some were biased towards combat and some were biased towards support, and whether all the extraordinary ability biases were fixed in the future, or would there be a completely different change in the future?
Then Chris asked a little worriedly, "Teacher, do you know what the name of the potion in 'Scholar' Sequence 8 is?"
"It's called 'Arcanist,' but I don't know his potion recipe or extraordinary abilities. Don't worry, when you're done digesting the 'Scholar'' potion, I'll help you buy the 'Arcanist' potion recipe from your friend. ”
Hearing the name of the potion for his next sequence, Chris's heart went cold.
Oh my God, you know what your preference is when you hear the name, is it that you are the legendary 10,000-year assistant?
However, Chris still put aside his doubts, anyway, the potion sequence can't be changed, so he should hurry up and digest it...... Wait, "digestion"?
I remember that the teacher said before that the main reason why the extraordinary person is out of control is that after each promotion, he cannot accurately and completely digest the extraordinary power in the potion, and the final result is that the madness is out of control, so that the spirit dies and the body disintegrates.
At that time, I still couldn't understand the meaning, did I want to continue to advance and live safely, I had to completely digest the potion?
"Teacher, what do you mean by 'digestion' just now?
"Suffice it to say that if the power of the potion is not fully absorbed, the remaining potion will accumulate in the body of the extraordinary person, and then continue to mix with the potion taken later, which will increase the tendency to lose control.
"Until it accumulates to a high point, it will explode and become a monster, irrationally causing damage to everything around it. The higher the extraordinary level, the greater the risk of losing control. The worse the physical or mental state of the extraordinary person, the greater the risk of losing control. ”
Listening to the teacher's answer, Chris couldn't help but shudder. The path of the Extraordinary is so dangerous?
"So how do we know when we're fully absorbing the potion remnants in our bodies?"
Oliver laughed and said, "When you really absorb it completely, your own spirituality is felt, and you can be sure again through some methods of divination, which is the safest." ”
Spirituality, Divination, Chris scratched his head and asked the teacher directly.
Oliver explains, "All things are spiritual, whether they are extraordinary materials, or extraordinary beings, or even all living things. For example, there are spiritual bodies, astral spirit bodies, mental bodies, and etheric bodies.
"The spiritual body is the core part of every person's non-physical body, the most fundamental spirituality.
"The astral spirit body is located outside the spirit body, which is the way the spirit body communicates with the spirit world and the starry sky, belongs to the external embodiment of the former, and is directly related to its own will and current emotions. Divination and many other spells are performed through "astral spirits".
