Chapter 159: Compensation and Witch Array Experiments
As for Tom's purpose, Al didn't want to delve into it, it was nothing more than to use drugs to manipulate some middle and low-level wizard apprentices, and then let these people continue to do tasks, exchanging resources for addictive drugs.
Basically, Tom's approach is similar to that of those drug criminals in his previous life to make money, and Al was obviously one of Tom's targets half a year ago, but because Eldo was careful, he luckily escaped Tom's calculations.
Walking all the way to the top of Raven Square, and looking around, Al saw Tom standing on the edge of Raven Square, talking to two or three wizard apprentices in a warm voice.
Apparently, Tom was waiting for the rookie wizard apprentices to arrive and lead them on those simple tasks, and then he would probably find an opportunity to distribute the added healing potion.
A smile appeared on his lips, and Al slowly stepped forward.
Al's arrival attracted Tom's attention, and a gloomy look flashed across his face, and then his standard sunny smile was revealed, and he took a few steps forward and said to Al: "Al, I heard that you have studied hard in the past six months, and it seems that you must have achieved some results, so you have come out." ”
In front of Tom in the aisle, Al looked at Tom and said with a smile, "Tom, senior, you're right, I do have some gains." Oh, by the way, this healing potion is thanks to Tom Senpai's help before, and I specially returned it to you. ”
As he spoke, Al handed Tom the healing potion he had kept, and then smiled as Tom reached out and took the healing potion.
Getting the healing potion handed over by Al, Tom shook slightly, looking at the color of the potion inside, slowly Tom's expression became cold, he looked at Al with a smile, and said, "Al." Sometimes, there are things that you need to turn a blind eye to, otherwise you may get into trouble. ”
Listening to Tom's implicit threatening words, Al smiled slightly and said, "I need to make amends, otherwise this matter will not end easily." ”
"Why do you say such a thing? Just because you've just been promoted to a high-level wizard apprentice?"
Al didn't hide his mental power fluctuations. So when Tom said that he had been promoted, Al was not surprised, but continued to smile and said, "Of course not by this, but by the person behind you, I definitely don't want to delay his plan because of your carelessness."
What you're doing is still being known on a small scale, and if I make a big deal out of it, it's going to interfere with you, or the plan of the person behind you. At that time, of course, I will be suppressed to a certain extent, but if you do not do things well, I guess there will be no good results. ”
Listening to Al's words, Tom's face was completely gloomy, he stared at Al deadly, and said in a low voice: "It seems that you don't want to be in the 'Crow's Nest', in that case, I will teach you." Treat your seniors, what is what you should be!"
The voice fell. Suddenly, a shadow surged from under Al's feet, entangled in him.
However, before these shadows could entangle his body, the 'Flame Heart' in Al's hand suddenly burst out with a large amount of flames, and under the control of El's 'Flame Flow Technique', these flames turned into Dao Fire Serpents, incinerating all those shadow tentacles. Not a single one is left.
His left hand was instantly covered in rock skin, and Al punched it out, straight to Tom's face.
Seeing this, Tom did not show weakness, he took out a bull horn with his backhand and held it in his hand. In the flash of red light, Tom's right arm holding the horn of the bull instantly received the blessing of the 'power of the bull', and he smashed it out, colliding with Al's left fist.
"Bang!"
The stone skin shattered, and Al took three steps back, only to feel a faint pain in the arm bone of his left arm.
Tom, on the other hand, obviously didn't take advantage of it, his right fist was bloody and fleshy, and his wrist was red and swollen, obviously suffering even more.
Frowning slightly, Tom looked at Al with a somewhat uncertain expression.
The 'Crow's Nest' is a dark wizard organization, so it does not prohibit all apprentices from fighting like the White Wizard Organization, but faintly supports the apprentices to fight each other, and there is a tendency to eliminate the weak and retain the strong, but there is only one thing that the 'Crow's Nest' prohibits, that is, it cannot cause human deaths, at least not in the 'Crow's Nest'.
After all, a qualified apprentice is also an extremely precious property for the wizarding organization, not to mention that no one can say whether the apprentice can grow into a wizard, so the protection of the apprentice's life is still in place in the 'Crow's Nest'.
That's why Al, who knows these rules, is so bold to come to Tom's trouble, and Tom is quite jealous of Al's provocation because of this.
If Al's strength is not strong, then Tom will definitely hit Al hard and find a way to control him, but it backfired, and as a result of the trial, Tom not only did not hit Al hard, but even more seriously injured than Al, although this does not represent their real strength, but it can also explain some problems.
His face changed rapidly, Tom looked at Al, and suddenly smiled: "Al, your strength has really improved a lot, I really want to congratulate you, and in the future, you will also have a place in the apprentices of the 'Crow's Nest'."
As for the compensation you mentioned, it's easy, I don't know how much you want, just tell me, as long as I can get it, I can give it to you. ”
Looking at Tom who seemed to have never happened just now, with a sunny smile on his face, Al's killing intent towards him became even stronger, such a person who can stretch and contract, once offended, then it will definitely be a big disaster in the future.
But now both Al and Tom are within the scope of the 'Crow's Nest', if Al really wants to kill Tom, then the final result is not to be implicated in the burial, I'm afraid there will be no second possibility, so no matter how much Al wants to kill Tom now, he must wait until Tom leaves the range of the 'Crow's Nest'!
Looking at Tom, Al's face also showed a smile like looking at an old friend, he laughed and said: "Tom's predecessor is really refreshing, then I won't be rubbing, a high-grade magic stone, the matter is over." ”
Hearing Al's words, Tom couldn't help but make his face gloomy even if he had a city mansion again.
He looked at Al, held back his anger, and said: "Al, this price is too outrageous, even if you ask an official wizard to help you do things, it will only be one high-grade magic stone at most, at most three intermediate magic stones, no more." ”
An intermediate magic stone is ten low-level magic stones, and correspondingly, a high-grade magic stone is also equivalent to ten intermediate magic stones.
As a result, Tom's asking price was directly reduced to thirty percent of El's asking price, and there were only three mid-level magic stones.
Shaking his head, Al asked for the price of seven intermediate magic stones, and Tom slightly increased the price to four intermediate magic stones.
In this way, the two of them went back and forth, and finally negotiated at the price of five intermediate magic stones.
Holding the bag containing five intermediate magic stones, Al ignored Tom's gloomy face and smiled and turned away from the Raven Square, returning to the inside of the Raven's Nest.
Looking at Al's departing figure, Tom felt his heart throb continuously.
Tom is indeed not the real master of these things he is doing now, and behind him stands a wizard apprentice who is the same as him, but because of his strong qualifications, he has been accepted as a student by a second-level wizard early on.
Every month, the magic stones that Tom loots from those who are controlled by the drug will eventually be given to that person, and the remaining ten percent will be his own income, not that Tom doesn't want more, because this drug was given to him by the person behind Tom, so Tom has no choice but to accept this distribution.
However, although it is only one percent, Tom controls at least ten middle and low-level wizard apprentices, and the magic stones they can bring every month, even if they draw one percent, it is enough for Tom to get a lot of benefits, otherwise, he will not be able to take out fifty low-level magic stones at one time, this magic stone is definitely a huge amount of money for the apprentice.
Resisting the desire to make a move on Al's back, Tom turned to the low-level apprentices waiting on the sidelines, and secretly decided that he must raise the price of that drug this month to make up for what he had lost.
The magic stone is used as currency in the 'Crow's Nest', and in fact it also has its actual effect, the most common function is to speed up meditation, so that the meditation speed that was originally slow due to the low affinity of the elements is accelerated, as for other functions such as providing witch array energy, etc., are also varied.
Fifty low-level magic stones are enough to assist Al in meditation for a long time, and can also be used to help El perfect an experimental project on the witch circle.
Before going directly to the rented laboratory in the 'Crow's Nest', he rented five low-level magic stones for the apprentice who guarded him for a day, and then Al closed the door of the laboratory and began to draw the witch circle on the ground of the laboratory.
After the drawing, Al took out a metal box from the space bag, opened the metal box, and a wave of heat poured out of it.
Naturally, what was contained in this metal box was the 'lava' rune from the two sets of runes that Al had obtained in the Ancient Wizard's Laboratory.
This 'lava' rune, like the 'weather' rune, is composed of three individual runes, namely [Fire], [Earth and Stone], and [Brimstone], and El's witch array experiment is to use these three runes as the core of the witch circle.
