Chapter 136: Spoils of War

In this way, the slave traders began to use various means to secretly collect information about Sean.

Even if they couldn't dig too deep, at least what happened when Sean and the Silver Eagle Legion came to Teresa City couldn't be hidden, and it didn't take long for them to grasp this information, and they quickly unearthed useful clues from it.

A large net against Sean has been quietly laid down, and it is difficult to attack and kill trainee professionals in the city, especially when there is a certain force behind Sean, in addition to the attacker must be sure of killing him with a silent blow, he must also be prepared to delay time.

However, since learning that Sean was only level 10 more than half a year ago, their mentality suddenly became relaxed, and they even focused most of their attention on how not to be discovered by Reinado, and how to chase after success, and did not care about Sean's own strength at all.

Since Reinaldo has a lot of eyeliner in Teresa City, I don't know which guy has a bad idea, that is, to temporarily provide someone with some powerful magic items and alchemy items, and then send them to lurk somewhere to assassinate them alone.

He claimed that this would definitely not attract Reinado's attention, otherwise if too many apprentice-level professionals were transferred, it would be easy for them to be discovered by some interested people, and the plan would go bankrupt.

It just so happened that there was a warlock in their alliance who was very good at concealment, and after some discussion and signing a contract, she hid in an alley that Sean often passed by with a lot of things that would increase her combat power, waiting for him to appear.

As a result, the slave traders quickly paid the price for their arrogance.

The battle ended in a crushing defeat for the attackers, who lost not only one of their apprentice-level combat powers, but also a large number of expensive magic items and alchemy items.

Even due to the stealth and suddenness of the operation, they didn't even set up an eyeline nearby, so such a precious opportunity to obtain information was missed, and I don't know how many people would be anxious at night, always speculating about the details of the guy named Sean.

In short, the first confrontation between the two forces ended dramatically, and Reinado, who was said to be staying in his estate, slapped the table and laughed for several minutes after receiving the news, and then ordered someone to get into a carriage and hurry to Sean's house.

……

……

At this moment, the vicinity of the villa where Sean lives has long become the focus of the entire Teresa City, and the spies and eyeliners of various forces are always paying attention to this place, wanting to collect some information related to him.

However, as the subject of this incident, Sean does not want to care about the outside world, he is now in a bad mood because of the loss of an arm, so he plans to do something else to dilute this feeling.

……

In the lab, Sean soaked his temporary limbs, which were growing on their own, in life force potion.

So far, most of the problems of reshaping limbs have been solved by him, and the next thing is only to wait quietly.

Therefore, he decided to take advantage of the short time he had to take advantage of the short time he had captured to use identification spells to test the few loot he had captured before, and roughly determine their value and how to dispose of them.

A short sword, a badge, a necklace, two rings, and four hedrons with runes inscribed on them, that's all he gets at the end of the battle.

Under the contact of Sean's spiritual power, these items all emitted unique energy fluctuations, which means that they are not ordinary weapons or accessories, but powerful products created through alchemy.

Carefully placing everything on the test bench, Sean set his sights on the hedrons he was least optimistic about, intending to study them the same.

Identification spells are usually prophecy and alchemy, and their content is very profound, even if he uses it, he must be very careful, otherwise it is easy to have all kinds of accidents.

A mysterious-looking glow lit up from Sean's hand, blowing like a breeze on the hedrons, and a large amount of information came into Sean's mind under the influence of spells, detailing their construction, effects, etc., with an additional message from the maker.

The results of the appraisal showed that these four spars were all one-time alchemy items, which stored four apprentice-level spells, namely Burst Fireball, Wind Wings, Deflection Force Field, and Mana Shield, which were of quite good value.

They are quick and easy to use, and can be activated by simply controlling the mental power inside them and operating according to the rules of special cases during combat, but if the user's professional level is too low, the spells released in this way will be very difficult to control, and even hurt themselves if they are not careful.

The maker's message is more interesting, which roughly means that the alchemy prop is exclusively sold by the Golks Academy, the maker is so-and-so, and there is a large number of advertising slogans, as well as providing a purchase channel within a certain geographical range.

Yes, alchemists would never do such a bad thing as carving words on a product, and if they really had something to say or necessary hints and instructions, they would hide this information in the product, and they would only need to use mental power or identification spells to find out.

Of course, the owner of the item can also choose to erase or hide it at any time if he has some alchemical attainments, but usually no one is idle to do so, and most people like Sean simply ignore it after browsing.

"A total of two thousand gold coins, yes, earned."

A smile instantly appeared on Sean's face, and he carefully placed the four hedrons on his body and continued to identify the other items.

Alchemy items are different from magic items, except for some mental power required to control, all their consumption is borne by themselves, and they do not cost the user any xenoether.

Therefore, the more energy you store, the higher the price of alchemy items, in addition to the difficulty of production, the high cost and scarcity of raw materials is also a very important factor.

Perhaps the ether is too omnipotent, I don't know when people gradually extended the unit of measuring ether to other things, no matter what kind of matter or energy, as long as the user wants, they can be measured in "volts".

Take the hedron that Sean just got as an example, after identification, each of them can release 15 volts of matter or energy when activated, which means that if you want to create the same effect out of thin air in nature, you also need to consume 15 volts of standard ether.

In other words, 1 volt of so-and-so energy = 1 volt of the energy converted into the standard ether, and 1 volt of the substance = 1 volt of the standard ether converted into the substance.

As for why the word standard is emphasized in front of the ether?

This involves the accumulation effect of xenoether, which is only covered after the formal level, so I will not talk about it here.

In short, the four alchemy items that can release 15 volts of energy Sean are not intended to be sold, after all, no one is short of life-saving things, if he hadn't used the Abyss Blade to kill the attacker in an instant, the last person to die would definitely be himself.

……

As the progress of the identification progressed little by little, Sean's mood became more and more happy, he had originally guessed that these loot were worth a lot of money, but he didn't expect that it really gave him a huge surprise.

First of all, there are two gorgeous-looking rings, both of which are apprentice-level magic items, which use rune enchantment to burn apprentice-level weakness and imprisonment respectively, and the effect recovery time is three days.

The xenoether types that the two rings can accept are mana, bloodline power, and god-given power, in other words, they can only be used by the three major caster classes, and the other professions can only be sold for gold coins even if they can't be activated.

In the previous battle, the Assassin used them to temporarily control Sean, and although the effect was not bad, due to the long cooldown time and the user's limitations, they were worth around 3,000 to 4,000 gold.

Then there's the necklace, whose name is Purifying Water, which has a droplet-shaped appearance and is also a trainee-level magical item.

In fact, the spell burned in the necklace has little to do with the water element, but is a probationary-level awakening technique, and the effect is that after use, most of the abnormal states of the target's consciousness and soul can be removed, and the recovery time is five days.

This spell has also been used not long ago, and it seems that the other party wants to get rid of the suppression of the Abyss Blade through it, but the power obtained by sacrificing the Abyss is not something that can be escaped by any spell, so the other party finally died at the hands of Sean, and failed to turn the tables in a desperate situation.

Like the two rings, the Purifying Water Necklace can only be used by the Mage, Warlock, and Priest classes, and although the cooldown is longer, the value is much higher than the ring, and should be up to 5,000 gold coins.

After all, those who can remove the abnormal state are rare good things, and in the face of a sudden outbreak of conflict, one step behind is one step behind, and the instantaneous awakening technique may be able to redeem a mistake and improve the error tolerance rate in battle.

These magic items can be used by Sean, so he doesn't plan to sell them, not to mention that they all have professional restrictions on the user, and it is better to exchange them for gold coins than to use them himself.

With the ring on and the necklace around his neck, Sean moved on to the next item, a badge with an eagle with wings spreading.

"The Falcon Badge, which contains the apprentice-level transformation spell Eagle Wing, or can it only be used by Warlocks? What the......"

Sean tossed it aside with some disgust, intending to sell it at a later opportunity.

There are still career restrictions for this kind of special effect flying spell, I really don't know what the alchemist who made this thing thinks in his head, although it can fill the vacancy of some warlocks in flying spells, but it can't be sold for a few dollars, at most one or two thousand gold coins.

Well, in the end, this thing is worth a lot......

Sean took the short sword in his hand and looked at it carefully, and used his mental power to carefully perceive its material.

Alchemy covers a wide range of fields, and one of the indispensable disciplines is the enhancement and synthesis of materials.

No matter what kind of alchemical creation, it needs good enough materials as carriers, and in addition to those special and powerful things that exist in nature itself, synthetic materials are very popular.

For example, Sean once obtained a piece of universal metal, which is an extremely common synthetic material, and this short sword should also be used as a synthetic material, but Sean is not very familiar with this aspect, so he can't name it.

Sharp, tough, and sharpened like clay, this is the biggest feeling this short sword brings to Sean, according to the information left in the sword by the builder, its name is the Calust Short Handle Decapitation Sword, in addition to its own very strong strength, its etheric affinity is also not bad.

The results of the appraisal technique showed that the sword's body and grip were depicted with a special technique depicting a large number of runes and energy circuits, and these runes and energy circuits attached to the short sword itself without affecting its melee ability.

Sharp, broken, inhibiting healing, and increasing pain, when all of these active abilities are activated, this short sword is simply the caster's nemesis.

Needless to say, sharpness and inhibition healing, the effect of breaking energy is the best weapon against the vast majority of spellcasters and a small number of fighters, as long as this sword slashes any special energy that has not been controlled at close range, it can dispel part of it depending on the strength and energy of the opponent.

As for the effect of the increased pain, it was even more powerful, and Sean had already experienced this feeling in the battle before, which was really terrifying.

Once slashed by this short sword, in addition to the wound that cannot be healed, there will also be something similar to a curse that will wrap around the attacker's body, magnifying all the pain suffered by the attacker, and even having a certain impact on the soul and spiritual power in a short period of time, causing the opponent to be unable to concentrate on the battle and even difficult to mobilize his own xenoether.

Of course, this is actually very easy to solve, for example, the awakening necklace that Sean got before can easily get out of this state, but the situation changes rapidly during the battle, and if you accidentally get hit, it is easy to fall into an irreparable desperate situation.

Therefore, although this short sword does not have rune enchantments for special spells or combat skills, its value should not be underestimated because it is compatible with all classes.

However, Sean is not a professional merchant, so it is difficult to determine how much it is worth, and it can only be roughly determined that its price range should be between 20,000 and 50,000 gold coins, which is the most valuable of all the loot.

After a little thought, Sean decided to sell it, after all, the weapon itself is not suitable for ranged classes, not to mention that if it really gets to the point where you have to play melee, the Abyssal Blade is obviously a better choice.
