Chapter 165: Arcanist Advancement (Various Requests)
In addition to her, the remaining junior thieves also stayed together for the sake of the thief sister and the gold coin.
Of course, Dong Xuan, who really has no shortage of junior thieves, naturally the salary he pays them is far less than that of the thief royal sister - one hundred gold coins a year per person, and there is no guarantee of additional bonuses.
Although it is more than double the commission of about 30 to 50 gold coins for a beginner thief, it is not too exaggerated, at least the loyal thieves cultivated by the nobles themselves can definitely double the annual reward of this.
Well, someone also deliberately gave an extra gold coin to a flat-chested one, which is called nutritional supplement, and deliberately glanced at the other party's chest after speaking, and then shook his head with regret.
"Bastard! I'm fighting with you! ”
If it weren't for the people around her who desperately stopped her, the crazy little girl was so angry that she almost didn't fight with him.
If it were to be replaced by other barons, the three mid-level professionals plus a large number of junior professionals would obviously be a huge force that was so powerful that they couldn't even think of it, but for Dong Xuan, this was obviously far from enough.
Because in this world where individual strength is the mainstay, no amount of low-level professionals can resist a truly strong person.
It's like the dwarf thief who was dragged down by Selena and the female elf now, if he was given enough time, Dong Xuan had no doubt that he would be able to assassinate hundreds of artificial warriors and artificial female thieves in the entire castle little by little!
"It seems that in addition to figuring out who is trying to deal with me, Baron Blackstone, we also have to find a way to gather some real high-level professionals..."
This is obviously a very difficult thing to do, and although someone is not short of money, it is obviously not possible to find a high-level professional who is loyal enough to rely on money alone, at least.
First of all, how to explain the various abnormal states that appear in Blackstone Ridge because of the sub-base and artificial soldiers is a big problem!
In fact, the royal sister thief Irena and the others had already noticed similar doubts.
However, because their own strength is actually nothing to Dong Xuan, coupled with the extremely strict monitoring system in the territory, he will indulge these peripheral members to wander around with such confidence.
Of course, they obviously couldn't get into the vicinity of the base deep in the mountains.
Not to mention those guards, just those surveillance instruments scattered everywhere that can be monitored from multiple angles such as infrared, life sensor, odor analyzer, etc., are not just mid-level thieves who can dodge.
And this was also the reason why Dong Xuan thought that the dwarf thief was definitely high-level, because such a sophisticated detection equipment was actually ineffective against him.
Of course, this doesn't mean that the power of the mid-level mechanical civilization can't do anything with these high-level thieves, after all, Dong Xuan is only a castrated version of the primary equipment here.
If they encounter complete high-level equipment, they will have to be caught, and then the dense firepower blockade network will teach them how to behave.
But for Dong Xuan, it is obviously very unrealistic to have high-end equipment in a short period of time.
If it weren't for the fact that he had "seen" the gnome thief's powerful soul burning like a torch from afar, he, a level 4 arcanist, would really be blocked in bed by him.
Not to mention whether he will be successfully assassinated, as a man, he will feel disgusted for this kind of thing that disturbs him to sleep with a beautiful woman!
Moreover, he hadn't slept at that time? Wouldn't it be even more tragic?!
"Forget it, before I think of a way to find a strong person who is loyal enough, I can only work hard to improve my level..."
Thinking of this, he didn't have the slightest sense of sleep, and simply sat down on the big bed where he was alone tonight, and then turned his hand and took out a soul light ball from the soul space.
Previously, due to his busy work, he had not been able to devote time to processing the two soul light balls, and it was not until Selena came back that he found time to further refine them.
Soul energy is an extremely powerful tonic for most spell-casting classes.
Only a unique existence like a soul reaper can truly capture and process it.
"It's my luck too, otherwise, I would have wanted to meditate alone. I don't know when I'll have to wait until I want to advance..."
While sighing, Dong Xuan stretched out his hands to hold the sphere that only he could see, exuding a faint glow.
The unique talent of the Soul Reaper made him like instinct, and he began to refine the energy that could be used in it, as well as to expel those harmful impurities.
Countless tiny balls of light with the imprint of life continued to float out of the balls of light like scattered snowflakes under the surge of his power, and then dissolved into nothingness, returning to the life cycle of the entire universe.
These impurities, which are the imprints of life, which are the highest proportions, can be said to be the true core of the soul and the basis for the birth of life.
The life imprint of a life itself has been predestined from the beginning of life, and unless there is a huge transformation such as an advanced demigod, there will be no increase or decrease.
The rest of the remaining soul power is more like a shell that plays a role in nourishing and driving, but it can be strengthened and weakened by replenishment and consumption.
Obviously, with Dong Xuan's current Soul Reaper level, he couldn't do anything about these life imprints at all, so he could only be eliminated as "impurities".
And when he was so busy that the sky was gradually turning white, this soul light ball that had taken him several days to refine one after another, was finally successfully refined.
Looking at the palm-sized soul energy in his hand, like a small crystal ball, Dong Xuan's eyes were full of obsession.
"It's beautiful..."
This kind of beauty is not due to any aesthetic and physical sensual feelings, but an instinct from the depths of the soul, even... Craving!
This desire is so strong, so surging
And the instinct of being an arcane master with a strong soul was surging wildly in his body, telling his soul and body that he had an incomparably hot desire for this "crystal" ball!
"Let's get started!"
Taking a deep breath, Dong Xuan actually opened his mouth suddenly and swallowed the "crystal ball" in one gulp!
A distinct ray of light slid down his throat and into his chest, forming a distinct spot of light in the center of his body, and the surging power also poured into his limbs, like a surging ocean!
Rumble!
An invisible thunderbolt sounded in Dong Xuan's consciousness, and the mana in his body was the first to stir and burn, and then his soul began to tremble wildly!
A scorching glow covered his entire body, and eventually, an invisible impact erupted from the room and then spread throughout Blackstone City... (To be continued.) )
