The next day, Raymond arrives at Angelica's Potions Shop with a copy of the Codex.

This old witch with an extremely wide range of hobbies is tinkering with alchemy formations in the shop today.

Raymond came to see her enchant a skull, well... It was made into a crystal skull that looked like a light bulb. Magic infusion, will flicker and glow.

"Lady Angelica, this is the Potions Codex I copied from my family."

Raymond took out the codex and handed it over directly, not worrying that she would take something and not recognize anyone.

After all, it wasn't worth much to him.

Moreover, when dealing with high-level transcendents, "be generous", you will always gain more initiative. These bigwigs will always feel reluctant to take advantage of the juniors, and will often return the unexpected added benefit of trading value.

For example, favorability.

Raymond wanted to ask for a clue about the "Grey Mist Heart-Eater", but the witch didn't necessarily answer. I feel good, I can always hear more news.

"Oh, put it on the table."

The old witch glanced at it casually, and lost much interest.

She thought for a while, took out a bottle of test tube with black powder from the cabinet and handed it out, and said, "This is the 'Forehead Bone Powder of the Undead Skeleton War Horse' that you want, a full two hundred grams." Thanks to your patronage, you will take three thousand gold coins. ”

"Thank you."

Raymond twitched his face when he listened, the price of high-grade materials was really frighteningly expensive. This small bottle of ashes of the dead is enough to make people enjoy a long period of imperial luxury in the city of Eleudnes.

The money was paid and the deal was completed.

The old witch didn't bother with Raymond anymore, and took it upon herself to tinker with her "Crystal Skull Bulb", presumably trying to place it high in the shop and replace the old dim magic lamp.

Raymond was in no hurry to leave, nor was he in a hurry to reveal any other purpose. Instead, he looked in the shop window, picked out several undead materials that were not common elsewhere, and paid for them.

Like a wealthy adventurer who is not short of money, but is curious about everything.

After a long time, the topic was not so abrupt, and then he asked, "That... Lady Angelica, I heard that this city of Eleudnis has the best necromantic magic inheritance in the world, please... Q: Have you ever heard of a material called 'Grey Mist Heart Eater'? ”

After a long time of sparing circles, the topic finally asked about this material.

Hearing this, the old witch had a faint discoloration.

She didn't look up, and asked lightly, "I've heard of it." ”

Raymond's expression did not change, but he was happy in his heart: "That... Where can I find such a thing? ”

The old witch didn't answer the question, and frowned: "That's something that only high-level necromancers use, what are you looking for that thing?" ”

Raymond said what he had prepared earlier, and said, "I saw a potion recipe on an ancient scroll inherited by my family, and it seems that I can use it to refine a spiritual power amplification potion. ”

"Oh."

The old witch didn't seem to have much interest in exploring further, and said, "That kind of magic fungus will not be in stock anywhere, and it will rot in two or three days at most, so it can only be picked and used. There aren't many things you can find in this world..."

Hearing this, Raymond obviously knew the whereabouts of this thing, and said in a relaxed tone, "If you know, may I take the liberty of asking where I can find it?" I'm willing to pay enough for this news. ”

"You don't have to get paid, you probably won't get it anyway."

The old witch shook her head, a smile on her face that was more ugly than crying, and said, "I heard that there is such a fungus in the garden of the castle of Puus. But... The castle lord's private castle has probably not been invited into it by a living person for decades. ”

Since I met that mysterious person yesterday, the following topic is logical to speak directly.

Raymond wasn't ready to play stupid, and said, "That... I'm so sorry I overheard some undeserved news yesterday. But Lady Angelica, I heard that guest of yours say... You seem to have a way to get in touch with the Castle Lord? ”

After a pause, he continued, "So I would like to take the liberty of asking, can you... Could you please help pick a 'Grey Mist Heart Eclipse Mushroom'? Of course, I would be willing to pay a fair amount for it. ”

The old witch gave him a cold look, and teased in a sinister manner: "Only by becoming a skeleton guard can you have a chance to enter the castle." Do you think I'll promise you? ”

"That's a shame."

Having said that, Raymond didn't want to continue to entangle.

It's time to get there, so you can leave some room for next time.

He addressed the old witch, who seemed to have lost his patience, and took his leave, "Excuse me, Lady Angelica. ”

"Wait."

As soon as he stepped out of the door, the old witch's strange laugh came from behind him.

"Boom... There is no unattainable deal in this world, and if there is, it is that revenge is not enough. ”

It seemed that she suddenly changed her attention and said, "As long as you can pay enough price, I can help you ask the city lord for a request... But you should know that the reward that can make the city lord look at me is probably not small. Would you really like to? ”

Raymond frowned slightly: "Can I take the liberty of asking, what kind of price do I need to pay?" ”

He didn't think he could be too eager, and said, "If I exceed the value of the ingredients too much, I think I'll probably give up trying that recipe." ”

The Puyos family has been operating in the city of eternal night for hundreds of years, and the wealth they have accumulated is unimaginable.

Obviously, the expensive one is definitely not as good as the right one.

Sure enough, the old witch said, "The lord of the city is a high-ranking necromancer, and he has little interest in money and possessions. But he's interested in all things necromancer-related, magic guides, undead forbidden spells, high-level corpses... As long as you take out something that is pleasing to his eyes, it's fine. ”

Raymond frowned and pondered for a moment before asking, "Corpses?" What rank of corpse are you referring to? ”

Raymond can't take out either a high-level magic guide or any forbidden spell, but if it's a corpse... He had quite a few in his backpack. The corpses of the high-level abyss demonic beasts that were harvested on the Earth Demon Island last time were still in the backpack, and there were eighth, ninth, and even tenth-order.

The old witch said, "Creature corpses are fine, but they must be of sufficient integrity and rank. If it's a rare creature corpse, it doesn't matter if it's a little lower. But if it's a common sea beast... It takes at least the ninth or tenth order, and it is probably possible to enter the eyes of the city lord. ”

"Well, thanks for informing... I went back and talked to the elders in the family. ”

Raymond nodded, did not respond eagerly, and said with a little regret: "You know, those high-level demonic beast corpses want to hunt, and the price will be very large. ”

The verbal deal was reached, and he didn't stay in the shop long, deciding to come back in two days.

......

"Whew... How did I forget, high-level corpses are more attractive to necromancers than any weapon magic skill! ”

Raymond left "Angelica's Potions" with a smile on his face.

In his mind, no matter how expensive the value of the "Gray Mist Heart Eater Mushroom" was, at most a few corpses could be exchanged.

Now that the materials for Sequence 6 [Soul Master] have been raised, the [Godfather of the Dead] main medicine for Sequence 5 has also been raised... The harvest of this trip to the city of Eleudnis has far exceeded expectations.

"But... I always think something is weird. Is it because this is the City of the Dead, so it is so easy to come across the two main ingredients of the Heins' 'Soul Sequence'? ”

But he always had a strange feeling lingering in his heart, and his intuition made him feel that something was wrong.

"Maybe I'm thinking too much... Bartering, which is the main way to trade high-end materials, doesn't seem to be anything strange about what the old witch is doing. ”

......

Now the intermediary's legendary potion is not too difficult for Raymond to refine.

After he got the "Forehead Bone Powder of the Undead Bone War Horse", he configured the potion on the same day and successfully advanced to the [Soul Master] of Sequence 6.

【Soul Master (Legendary)】

Mental Power +75, Bonus +13%

+23 per PER

Psychic Power +9

Soul Power +16%

Psychic Spell Mastery +35%

Psychic Spell Damage +30%

Necromancer Mastery +150%

Explanation: Powerful Soul Potion; Potion fusion, attribute adaptive growth; It gives you the feeling of being intimate with the undead;

Before Raymond saw the properties of this potion, he vaguely guessed that the follow-up series of Hayns might be related to necromancy.

The most thorough study of souls in this world is naturally only this group of undead transcendents who like to deal with corpses and bones. Even, he guessed that Hayens back then might be a super-level necromancer!

Moreover, after successfully advancing the potion, he saw the contents of this [Hayens Death Note IV.], which made him even more sure of this.

The hidden contents of the fourth notebook are as follows:

"Is the body the vehicle of the soul? Yes and no..."

"How is the soul born? Is the flesh the seed that grows the soul? But how did those artifacts with 'spiritual wisdom' come about? ”

"Is the carrier of spiritual power the soul or the body, or is it indispensable?"

"The bodies of the gods may be destroyed, but their wills can last for eternity..."

"Is the body that breeds the soul the 'carrier' with the highest degree of compatibility with the soul? If the soul is free, can the soul become an independent 'individual'? ”

"If the body is only the carrier of the soul, where is the decaying body, can the soul last forever?"

“...”

Most of the content of this note is about the above questions, and then in the second half of the book, Hayens records his own research on the above questions.

Raymond grew fascinated.

The questions and answers that Hayens asked, he was also eager to know.

"Obviously, the soul will also dissipate like the body, disappearing in a way that I don't understand yet..."

"I tried the Soul Separation Experiment to find a way to keep my soul alive... Because I had carefully studied the ancient magic of a broken civilization, I developed this revenant stripping magic. Then, I had initial success..."

"Theoretically, I have come to the conclusion that if the 'carrier' is not destroyed, the soul will not be annihilated. Therefore, I chose to find a new 'carrier' for the soul..."

"I call that wandering soul 'corpse witch'. Unfortunately, the experiment was not successful, I exhausted all the materials and only got a 'half-finished product', which is my disciple..."

“...”

Raymond looked at the entire notebook and suddenly felt that his head was a little big.

Heins's unbridled imagination made him feel like he had discovered a new continent. This kind of crazy idea of the sword going off the rails and wanting to live forever makes people think of Uncle Snake in a certain Hokage for the first time, a mad scientist who is obsessed with physical immortality.

Their thinking is surprisingly unanimous, since the body cannot last forever, then change the "container" for the soul!

But obviously, their research still has huge flaws and has not been ultimately successful.

.....

The limited content of the notes also made Raymond so eager to see the contents of the later notes for the first time. He wondered how far Hayins's crazy experiment had gone.

But obviously, it must not have reached the point where he idealized "the soul and God live forever", otherwise his "works" would have been left in this world.

After reading the content, Raymond unexpectedly got a skill.

【Soul Commander Lv0】

The potential required for the skill is 0/999

Explanation: You have the ability to detain and enslave free souls; Skill Boost, you can detain the ability to control higher-level undead.

This skill...

Raymond didn't think for a moment about what this skill was for.

This [Soul Commander] sounds like a bluffing name, but it doesn't look like an attack skill. It can't forcibly pull out the soul of a creature like the star-absorbing Dafa to kill enemies and monsters; Rather, it is to detain some souls who are already in a state of "free". For example, the soul of the "Evil Eye Emperor" that Raymond is now sealed in his notebook.

However, after the death of living beings, the soul leaves the body, and all souls are unconscious, except in rare special circumstances.

The so-called "detention", "repatriation" in the skill description...

It doesn't seem to be of much use.

Well... This skill is a bit of a chicken rib for the time being.

......

Raymond was in no hurry to go to "Angelica's Potions Shop" to find the old witch in exchange for "Grey Mist Heart Eater".

After he advanced to the [Soul Master], that feeling on the soul became stronger and stronger, and he always felt that something might change in that matter.

Because he thought of a possibility that he had overlooked before...

If anyone knows the detailed recipe for the Hayings potion sequence... So don't you know that Sequence 5 and Sequence 6 are exactly the two that you went to find?

Doesn't he open his mouth to find two main drugs one after another, doesn't it prove that he is the inheritor of Hayens?

If that witch is from the world government, or if she is a bad guy.

Although this is also very unlikely (there is a system hostile prompt), Raymond is not willing to take any chances.

He plans to wait for the end of the rematch with Enzo, bring his bodyguards, and then go to find this "gray mist mushroom".

It just so happened that this potion was digested for a few days,

Enzo's "ten consecutive wins" rematch is about to begin.

This was the final link of the "get-riches plan", and he had to go and watch the battle in person.

However, what surprised him even more was that there was indeed a real super dark horse in this ten-game winning streak!
