Chapter 34: The Despicable Trap, the Solution
Compared with the lost ancient civilizations, among the major branches of alchemy, alchemy and alchemy have the best inheritance, the mentor level is not uncommon, and the grandmaster level also appears from time to time; Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The worst thing is the cultivation technique, due to the huge gap in the inheritance of knowledge, the mentor-level cultivator is even rarer than the grandmaster-level pharmacist. The vast majority of grandmaster-level alchemy items are relics of ancient civilizations, and once damaged, they don't even have the ability to properly repair them.
That's why Merlin Avery is very worried that once his Frost Emperor Ring is discovered, it may cause unpredictable and huge trouble. It is definitely not an unthinkable thing to seek money and kill people, and even the prestige of the Thorn Flower family can hardly suppress the huge greed from the Alchemist Guild.
Due to the lack of parts, the evaluation of the Frost Emperor's Ring was only a quasi-grandmaster-level, and the gift given by the mysterious old man was actually a real grandmaster-level alchemy item, which of course made Avery shocked.
This gift is so generous that if it is just a kind gift from the seniors to the juniors, it will not be justified in any way.
The colorful light continued to flicker rhythmically, suppressing the resistance of the quaint wooden box, the lid of which suddenly opened and closed, making a crackling sound, and from time to time there were puffs of orange-yellow or fiery red smoke escaping from the middle of the box, but it could not break through the confinement of the colorful light.
"After analysis, this item is a Mithril-level curse item - Old Serin's potion case, honorary citizen Merlin Avery, would you like to accept a series of tasks related to this?"
Avery was stunned for a moment, a little confused, "Dear Guide, what do you mean by the series of quests, and does it have anything to do with this box?"
"Guess correctly, Honorary Citizen Merlin Avery is an unknown number of people who use it to lure, corrupt, and corrupt the inhabitants of the City of Wisdom. The Golem's tone was still rigid, but the speed of his speech was noticeably quicker, "Finding and killing the Heartsnatcher Elder Serin Anross will reward you with tens of thousands of honor points and citizen points, and you will directly become one of the Lords of the Wisdom City Division." ”
Avery didn't even want to hear the content of the mission. Being able to create an unknown number of Grandmaster-level alchemy items indicates that this cultivator is at least the pinnacle of Grandmaster, and may even have stepped into a legendary realm that is rare even in the history of ancient civilizations. It would not be easy to find and kill such a formidable enemy, even with the power of the Empire, let alone Merlin Avery, who was still a little short of the mentor level.
"I'm afraid this task is far beyond what I can do, respected guide, I just want to know now, can you help me lift the curse on this item?"
"It can't be dismantled, it can be peeled, but the item is already linked to your soul, and forcibly stripping it could cause unpredictable damage. The Bootstrapper Golem said what Avery had been afraid to hear, "Accept and complete a series of quests related to this item to successfully lift the item's curse." ”
This is the correct answer, but it is also the answer that does not make any sense.
If you have the power to get rid of the Heartsnatcher Elder Serin Anrose, it will certainly be easier to deal with a Grandmaster-level cursed item. Avery smiled wryly and sighed, realizing that the Golem of the Guide, though mysterious, could not do anything about it.
"So, this cursed item is the true owner of the two Immortal Followers, Victor and Satum?"
"The speculation is correct, the conclusion is wrong. Old Serin's potion box is a cursed item, but also a very powerful alchemy item, this alchemy item can absorb the user's soul power to create all alchemical potions below the Mithril level, no raw materials other than soul power, but theoretically does not have the ability to create heroic spirits. The crystal tube at the head of the Golem of the Guide, flickered again, "You're lucky, Honorary Citizen Merlin Avery, you didn't try to draw the alchemical potion from this item, otherwise your soul would have been completely snatched from it, and no power would have been able to help you." ”
Avery breathed a sigh of relief, "Can I speculate that since this cursed item doesn't have the ability to create Heroic Spirits, it can't manipulate Heroic Spirits and manipulate the minds of Victor and Satum either?"
"That's right, Old Serin's potion box is not a smart alchemy item, and it doesn't have the ability to manipulate Heroic Spirits. The appearance of your two Followers of the Immortal should be an accident, or one of the item's unsolved secrets. The Golem of the Guider paused suddenly, and the crystal tube on its head flickered again and again, and it was not until half a minute later that it continued.
"Old Serin's potion box will only draw soul power above the mentor level, and although these two Heroic Spirit Followers have reached the mentor level, they have not reached this level from the beginning. Their souls were indeed seized by the cursed item, but they were not dissolved and dissolved, perhaps because Old Serin's potion box did not look down on the souls that were not strong enough. ”
When the Golem of the Guides spoke later, it had already begun to detach itself from the strict logic. Avery didn't notice this, or he did, but he didn't know enough about the logic of constructing creature intelligence to be aware of the anomaly of the Guiding Golem.
After repeatedly confirming that Old Serin's potion box was not harmful, Avery thanked the Golem of the Guide, and then agreed to end the full scan. He noticed that when the rainbow light disappeared, the quaint wooden box floated again, and then hid in his shadow. This made Avery even more depressed, and he almost forgot what he was here for.
After listening to Avery's explanation, the Golem of the Guide stretched out its massive steel arm and handed a crystal ball to the young alchemy apprentice.
"That's right, Honorary Citizen Merlin Avery, your first five Followers of the Immortal will receive a body for free, and each additional follower after that will cost you 100 Citizen Points, and a complete repair of a Follower's body will cost 100 Citizen Points. Due to the Wisdom Capital's logical error, your first two Immortal Followers will only have a Bronze rating, and as compensation, this crystal ball will add a functional building to your realm, the Immortal Guild, which you can do directly in this building when you add new followers and repair their bodies. ”
