Chapter 6: Thirty Days of Harvest

Alchemy machines with magical overtones, accompanied by the sound of gears turning, let out a low roar in the room. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

And one step away, at this moment, Wu Ming was concentrating on careful observation, checking Gargamel's notes from time to time, doing some work such as revision.

Seriously, the discipline of alchemy, without the guidance of a mentor, is really a bit unpredictable.

Although Wu Ming checked his notes and did the steps meticulously, many things were still unexpected.

Five minutes into the experiment, the Smurfs had convulsions all over their body. Ten minutes after the experiment began, the Smurfs were extremely uncomfortable with retching and a trance! ”

Wu Ming jotted down the data in his notebook, then took two steps forward to the glass container where the Smurfs were fixed, and guessed what went wrong.

Gargamel's notes are detailed in the steps that should be no problem.

But look at the two Smurfs, struggling in pain in a glass container, looking like they are going to die at any moment. Wu Ming didn't dare to continue, after all, he only had two Smurfs, and dying any of them would be an intolerable loss for him.

... Click...

With a flick of Wu Ming's fingers, the mage's hand stopped the machine and sent the two Smurfs out of the glass container.

After leaving the glass container, the two Smurfs gasped for air and rolled their eyes from time to time.

Wu Ming held a magnifying glass in one hand and grabbed the Smurfs with the other, observing the pupils of the two Smurfs, hoping to find out the reason for the failure.

It's just a pity that Wu Ming is not a real alchemy master, nor is he an experienced veterinarian.

After a few minutes of observation, he had to give up on doing so, because it seemed really silly and meaningless.

"You two little ones, how are you feeling now?" The Smurfs can communicate, Wu Ming couldn't think of a reason, so he could only ask the question to the person concerned.

Hearing Wu Ming's question, the two Smurfs looked listless, and they had no intention of answering.

Wu Ming waited for a few minutes and didn't wait for an answer, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "Listen, two little guys." Since fate cannot be resisted, why do you choose to give in? Come to think of it, my power is not something you can resist, and I don't want you to be harmed, isn't this the beginning of our good cooperation? ”

"Phew!"

Sister Lan exerted all her strength and salivated at Wu Ming, showing such disdain.

The smile on Wu Ming's face disappeared quickly, and his fingers gently wiped away Sister Lan's spit, and his brows inevitably furrowed.

"It seems that you haven't adapted to your identity as a captive."

Wu Ming frowned, stretched out a finger as he spoke, and nodded heavily on his sister's head.

The adult's finger on the Smurfs was no less than a jade pillar, and after it was placed on Sister Blue's head, it caused Sister Blue to snort in pain.

Hearing the muffled snort of pain, Wu Ming didn't choose to stop it, but instead stretched out his hand more interested, and flicked it on Sister Lan's head a few times.

"Stop, stop it, you're going to kill her!"

With three snaps of her fingers in a row, Sister Blue's eyes were full of stars, and it caused the Smurfs to curse stupidly.

You must know that in the entire Smurfs family, everyone's personality traits are experienced by their names.

As the only female member of the Smurf tribe, Sister Smurf can be said to be the pistachio of all Smurfs, even if she is stupid.

At this moment, seeing Sister Lan being tortured by bad people like this, she was so stupid that she couldn't wait to bite off one of Wu Ming's ears.

"Why, this is unbearable!"

Wu Ming looked back at the stupid man who was angry, shook his head and smiled: "Since you can't bear it, then cooperate with me." Now tell me, how do you feel inside, and why is there such a big reaction? ”

"No, I don't know. I just felt as if something was going to slip away from me, and the feeling made me dizzy, as if I was going to die. ”

The stupid answer was very hurried, but it fell on Wu Ming's ears, but it made him feel refreshed.

It was as if something was about to slip away from the body, and it was clearly an alchemy machine that was extracting the happy essence of the Smurfs.

In this way, it means that the alchemy machine has not failed, and as long as the Smurf's own reflection is resolved, the experiment can be a complete success.

"The experiment continues!"

Wu Ming quickly put the two Smurfs into the glass cover, turned on the machine again, and began to adjust in some subtleties.

Reduce the power by 30% to make the machine run more smoothly.

This time, as the speed of power output decreased, the Smurfs were in a better situation, and there was no retching and rolling of their eyes.

Subsequently, Wu Ming continued to reduce some power and reduce the air pressure inside the glass cover.

Time passed little by little, and the Smurfs' whole body began to glow.

Wu Ming stared closely at the situation inside the glass cover, witnessing the blue light emerge little by little, and slowly detach from the Smurf. Eventually, driven by air pressure, the blue light condenses into liquid water droplets, which flow slowly but surely into the transmission pipe.

Tick, tick, tick......

Blue droplets, dripping into the vials that had been prepared long ago, and with the restrained light, condensed into a paste-like solid.

"Success, success!"

The blue essence is so charming, and the magic fluctuations emitted are even more difficult to hide.

Wu Ming excitedly picked up the bottle and dropped a drop from it, dripping into his hand.

"The Mage's Hand..."

... Swish...

The mage's hand appeared in front of Wu Ming's eyes, and what was even more amazing was that Wu Ming didn't feel any mana flowing.

"This is, instead of casting!"

Wu Ming looked at the happy essence on his palm, which was slightly darker in color, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal a little obsession.

"No wonder, no wonder Gargamel, so attached to the Smurfs. It turns out that these blue happy essences extracted from the Smurfs actually have the function of replacing spellcasting. ”

In just a moment, the hand of the mage, who was supposed to consume mana support, did not use Wu Ming's own magic power.

The moment the magic was activated, Wu Ming's magic power was not used, and it flowed back into his body. Instead, the blue essence shimmered, splitting out a part of the magic power that supported the operation of the spell.

Incredible, really incredible.

Wu Ming didn't know if Gargamel's own extracted happiness essence was this effect.

If so, the value of these Smurfs is probably far beyond imagination.

Even, if there were any awards in the wizarding world, Gargamel would be able to become the greatest wizard in the history of magic with this discovery. Even if he is not strong in his own right, it is enough to open a new era of magic, allowing ordinary people to use these happy essences to access and even use the power of magic.

"One drop of the Essence of Happiness has enough magic power to sustain me ten times with a Mage's Hand, or two shapeshifts. Even if the two Smurfs have a limited amount of happiness essence extracted every day, as long as I don't fight people every day, it is enough to cover up my lack of magic power. In this way, I can completely stop worrying about magic problems before I become strong. ”

Stroking the bottle in his hand, Wu Ming's eyes flashed with joy, solving the most difficult problem at the moment.

In the initial stages of mage's beginnings, the lack of mana is a problem that all mages need to face.

In terms of Wu Ming alone, with his current magic reserves, even if he used the magic of the mage's hand, it would only be five times in a row at most.

It can be converted that the mage's hand consumes mana five times and consumes the same amount of mana as one shift.

In other words, if he encounters some unexpected problems, Wu Ming uses the hand of the mage, and he will not have the magic power to use shapeshifting and transposition.

And if he uses Shapeshift, his magic will be depleted, and no magic will be used.

But now that the situation has changed, with the Essence of Happiness that can be used instead of casting spells, Wu Ming does not need to consume his own magic power at all.

In this way, as long as the Essence of Happiness is not depleted, he will become the strongest magician, a moving humanoid turret. Even, in some necessary cases, he was able to use some magic beyond the level, and his own magic power was not enough to support it.

It's good, it's powerful.

Wu Ming couldn't help but whistle, one foot in front and one foot behind, and danced Michael Jackson's space step to vent his excitement.

......

......

"Ding-dong...... When the one-month mission period expires, please select the bounty task and enter the mission world. ”

The time to be happy is always short-lived, and thirty days pass in the blink of an eye when the essence of happiness is about to fill the vial.

The only difference is that this time Wu Ming has some confidence.

After taking a few deep breaths, I put away the vial containing the essence of happiness and ate a hearty lunch.

After everything was ready, Wu Ming relaxed and lay down on the sofa and clicked on the task menu.

"Hey, this time it's all right!"

Clicking on the menu of the primary task, Wu Ming was taken aback.

I saw that on the menu, there were five tasks lined up, which belonged to martial arts, supernatural classes, science and technology, magic classes, and the last doomsday tasks.

Five tasks, belonging to five categories, this phenomenon surprised Wu Ming for a few seconds.

After a brief period of surprise, the selection of tasks continued, and this time there was still not much to choose from.

Paranormals, scare themselves, be the first to give up...

Martial arts, no love for martial arts, Wu Ming thought about it, and still gave up...

"Tech!"

Seeing the science and technology class, Wu Ming paused briefly, and then shook his head slightly.

From the beginning, science and technology is the category with the fastest results, and the time to form combat effectiveness is much less than that of other types in the same period.

But now Wu Ming has already embarked on the road of magic with one foot, and it is time to move forward bravely.

During this period, he felt that he should be steady and steady, and as for whether there was a possibility of combining magic and technology in the future, this point would be left for later.

Give up the science and technology task, and the final doomsday class, Wu Ming will not choose.

With Wu Ming's current strength, although he has mastered the two magics of mage's hand and shapeshifting, he is still no different from ordinary people in terms of defense.

And the apocalyptic missions, generally speaking, contain dangers, for ordinary people, second only to the supernatural.

Even with Wu Ming's current family background, if he wants to survive a large-scale disaster, he can't hide in Tibet like a mouse.

Therefore, instead of honing yourself in the apocalypse, it is better to find a magical world to use to improve your strength.

"System, abandon the doomsday class and the other three tasks, and choose the last magic class."

Wu Ming quickly made a decision, and in the second mission world, he still chose the magic journey to strengthen his current self.

"Ding-dong... Selected Magic Movie World, Magician's Apprentice. ”

Either-or: Mission mode...

Option 1: Choose to join the side of justice and help Merlin's heirs, kill the Dark Wizard leader, and destroy the witch Mogana Lefey.

Option 2, join the side of the dark wizard Morgana, and kill Merlin's inheritor, and Merlin's disciple Balthazar.

Special Reminder...... There is no reward for this quest, and you can join any faction and ask them for magic after gaining their trust.

"Interestingly, I was not explicitly asked which side I was on to join, but I was given two camps to choose from. What's even more interesting is that this mission is not paid, but gives the opportunity to ask the other party for advice! ”

Wu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the two camps so that he could pick out the best choice.

Among them, on the side of the White Wizard, Balthazar is a disciple of Merlin, who has the inheritance of the Book of Merlin and holds the mystery of immortality.

On the dark wizard's side, Morgana tore the pages of resurrection magic from the Book of Merlin before it was sealed, and possessed a large amount of extremely lethal black magic.

In this comparison, if you don't consider the development of the plot, it should be more advantageous to join the Balthazar side than to join the Mogana side.

After all, the current Wu Ming has no one to resurrect, all he needs is the inheritance of the Book of Merlin and the immortal body mastered by Balthazar.

On the other hand, if the plot factor is also taken into account, then joining Balthazar will have to face the terrifying Mogana, and this situation is definitely a life and death.

"Hey, no..."

Wu Ming was suddenly stunned, and thought of another possibility.

Why do you want to think about the plot, at the beginning of the plot, Mogana is in a sealed state. As long as he moves forward and starts to act before he touches the plot, he can actually avoid trouble.

Even, even if the plot unfolds later, it has nothing to do with Wu Ming. Even the battle between the Black Wizard and the White Wizard was a joke for Wu Ming, and he could have chosen to hide instead of participating in it.

"It's really an infinite stream of too much, and when I see the task, I want to complete it, and I almost wrap myself in!"

After figuring out the key, Wu Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, glad that he had noticed the wordplay here.

Now, with the purpose of not participating in the plot at all, Wu Ming quickly made a decision in his heart.

"System, choose to join the White Wizard camp and go to the quest world..."
