It took two hours of hard work for Wayne to drain all the potion materials.

But he didn't buy too many last time, and only bought 10 copies of each potion.

One bottle is of Inferior (made while studying), two bottles of Finesse, three bottles of Excellent, and four bottles of Perfection.

Except for two bottles of each potion for personal use, everything else had to be taken out and traded.

Originally, when Wayne chose the potion formula, he focused on practicality, such as the Divine Speed Elixir and the Spirit Surge Elixir were specially used for him in battle.

Transfiguration Potions, Concealment Potions, and Underwater Breathing Potions are all designed for different scenarios, making it easier for him to carry out missions or run away.

"It should be able to maintain about double the profit."

After some simple calculations, Wayne was quite satisfied with the result.

As long as the gold pounds he earned were enough to support his studies and experiments for a period of time, and at the same time ensure the smooth development of the potions business.

"It's 10:50?"

Is it already so late?

Wayne looked out the window, wondering when the deep-sea beast had vanished.

As Claire said, Rasim's appearance in the sea near the city-state of Custer was a fortuitous event.

I don't know how many people were blinded by witnessing Rasim being poked......

Wayne shook his head, no longer thinking about this, compared to ordinary people, his situation as an outsider is not much better, it is better to improve his strength as soon as possible.

Then he picked up the card on the table and put it on his forehead, and re-entered the world of Nightmare.

It's just that Wayne, who wants to keep a low profile, forgets another very important thing......

"Come and see, the relics that have just been excavated from the ruins of the Quaternary Endel Empire, guaranteed...... Ga! ”

A very short gray figure, with the big number 2 on his head, froze there in fright after seeing Wayne's phantom in the shouting.

"The red moon is above, this, he, he he, is 27??"

"Shut your mouth and don't ram this adult."

"Your Excellency, I beg your pardon for his ignorance......"

Wayne saw the situation around him, and only then did he realize that he had forgotten that the last time he left, he had purchased a six-barreled musket in the initial area.

According to Franta, the transcendents in the transit area usually leave the Nightmare World from there, so that they can ensure that the next time they come in, they will also appear in the transit area.

What's more, in less than two days, his origin has increased by 5 points, increasing his number in the Nightmare World to 27......

Even in the captain's zone, this number is not low, let alone the initial zone that spans two zones.

"You go on." Wayne's calm voice sounded, and it made the people around him quiet again.

“……”

Seeing this, Wayne reluctantly walked in the direction of the transit area.

He had just swept around, but he didn't see Franta, nor did he hear the words "recover the corpse of the clergy of the Church of the Dawn", so he had to try his luck in the transit area.

After he walked away, the transcendent behind him breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's so scary, I feel like I'm about to dissipate when his eyes look at me just now."

"Yes, such an origin is really not suitable for the initial area, and the impact on us is too great."

"If you want to blame, you can only blame your strength is not good, like me, it doesn't have much impact." A transcendent person with the number 9 written on the door of his head said proudly.

"That is, in the Nightmare Realm world, you need to abide by the rules of origin supremacy, and the real world will see if I can stab you to death!"

"You-"

For the voices of respect, envy, or flattery around him, Wayne didn't pay much attention to it.

If it weren't for a double-digit figure on the door of his head, he would probably be like these people now, leaning against a low mound with a tombstone and shouting: sell potions, perfect level......

Thinking about that scene, it seems quite joyful.

"Transit Area ......"

It didn't take long for Wayne to make his way through the Initial Zone and under the tower.

Even though he had seen it last time, he still felt incredible when he looked at this tower again.

The entire tower is towering into the sky and invisible, and the diameter of its base area is as long as ten kilometers, and the square white masonry is stacked on top of each other, which is very spectacular.

But the tower was not intact, with several clear cracks extending from the height to the bottom, revealing some twisted lines inside.

Faintly, Wayne recognized a familiar rune node in the crack, the cornerstone rune?

The tower is also fused with the runes related to the mechanical school?

This couldn't help but make him wonder, could it be that this tower was not an illusory vision created by the Nightmare Sect, but a real existence?

Because if it is fake, there is no need to be so real, even the rune nodes and lines are exposed.

"Your Excellency?"

"Franta, it's me."

Seeing that it was a blood spirit wizard, Wayne nodded slightly, "Sorry, it's a waste of time to make potions, it's too late." ”

"It's not too late, it's you...... How could you be this Origin? ”

Franta stared at the number on his forehead in a daze, and in shock, even his body began to ripple like water waves.

"It's nothing, it's just a little bit of an increase in strength."

Less, a little?

When we first met two days ago, we were only 22......

In two days, the origin was increased by 5 levels, and the overall increase increased by 50%......

Do you call this a little??

Franta took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, he knew that this time it was really fate favoring, otherwise how could he be so lucky to meet such a strong person?

"Your Excellency, the quality of the Enlightenment Elixir last time was very good, I wonder if you want to sell it today? I am willing to bid 3 gold pounds and 10 shillings to make the purchase. ”

"Why?" Wayne was a little surprised, and some people took the initiative to increase the purchase price...... Lots of money?

Franka smiled and explained, "Many Potions Masters sell perfect-grade potions that are much higher than others, and with your status and strength, you are worth such a premium. ”

That's the strategy he came up with, buying at a premium, identity parity.

Ten shillings only, if you can get the friendship of this one, no, even if it is only a little more familiar than the others, the investment is worth it.

And he wasn't unreasonable, as the well-known Potions Masters sold potions at a higher price than others.

It's just that it's rare for someone of their stature to sell a basic potion like an Enlightenment Potion......

"Thank you very much."

Wayne saw what he was thinking, but he didn't refuse.

The reality of this world is terrible, there is no goodwill for no reason, more of gratuitous malice.

It is rare for someone to show kindness to him so directly, and of course he will not mind having one more "acquaintance".

"This time, in addition to the Enlightenment Potion, I have several other potions......"

After a while, Wayne sold all the potions to Franta for a premium of around 10% and signed a trade contract through the Nightmare Worm.

"I wonder if it will be convenient for your excellency to be at midnight in two days?"

"Huh?"

Franca smiled, "That's right, there's a small party on the 49th floor of the tower in two days, and if you have time, I'd like to invite you to join us." ”

Wayne asked with interest, "What kind of gathering?" ”

"It was organized by a wizard from the Psychic School, and most of the participants were elites from various schools, including many masters who studied potions."

Wayne pondered for a moment, wizards of various schools?

So, there should also be wizards from the Ghost School participating?

"Okay, I agree."

Wayne nodded noncommittally, "It's just that I don't know what I need to do when I meet?" ”

"It's a private party and you don't have to pay for anything."

Franta hurriedly said, "But according to the old rules, everyone will exchange some experiences on the wizard's path, or discuss the latest research that is of current concern. ”

"I remember the theme of the last meeting, which was proposed by the wizard of the Spiritual Secret School, mainly to discuss the method of pollution defense against the red moon, which is very rare."

"Oh? Did you discuss what the results were? Wayne's eyes lit up, and if there was a way beyond the dawn, he was very interested.

"Well, there is no ...... for the time being," Franka was a little embarrassed, "Red Moon's research sequence is too high, and even within the school, only a very small number of people participated. ”

"But a transcendent who is often at sea mentioned that on an island near the northern continent, where there is no red moon hanging all year round, it is very magical."

"And a place like this?"

"I also heard him say this at the party, and in fact many people will never leave their schools for the rest of their lives."

Wayne nodded knowingly, it sounded like this party was quite interesting, it was what he needed at the moment, "What else?" ”

Franta: "Also, at every party, everybody trades something. ”

"Deal?"

"Yes, it can be an epoch relic, knowledge, materials, or research results. It is important to note that most of the time it is bartered and not traded in gold pounds. ”

Barter?

"Then I see, I'll prepare some gadgets in advance."

"I'm sure with you on board, this party will be even more exciting."

"See you in two days, then."

Franta said respectfully, "I look forward to your arrival." ”

Wayne took one last look at the tower and exited the Nightmare World, then opened the card case and put the potions in it.

Watching the nightmare worm's palm-sized head swallow dozens of potions in one go, I was worried that it would crush and break during transportation.

There is no such thing as a broken bottle in this world......

But this time, in addition to selling potions, what made him happier was the invitation to the party.

After being in this world for so long, the only wizards he had come into contact with were two, one was the liaison officer of the Ministry of Intelligence, and the other was the ghost.

Well, the former disgusted him, and the latter had already been killed by him......

Hopefully, this gathering will allow him to get some useful information, and at the very least, establish a relationship with a ghost school wizard and maintain communication.

It didn't take long for Wayne to receive the money—a total of 105 gold pounds.

Originally, it could only be sold for about 92 gold pounds, but he didn't expect that Franka would suddenly have a premium of 10%, making his money a lot easier.

In this way, counting the money left before, he had 172 gold pounds and 10 shillings in his hand.

"This is the wealth that a wizard should have......"

Thinking about the 2 gold pounds that the predecessor had saved for a few months to buy a meditation method, the gap was really too big.

Once he had the money, Wayne submitted an exchange request to the Wraith School Apprentice Management Office according to the list he had planned before.

There are two defensive spells and four attack spells.

The defensive spells are the Bone Wall and the Spirit Shield.

Among the attack spells, two are spells of the undead system.

One of them is the Shadow Twist, the spell used by Shadow Ognyan that can extend countless arms.

The main reason why he chose this spell was that he wanted to increase his control, and the effect of this spell was that it could trap the enemy in it, making it easier for him to attack.

The second is the Claw of the Dead, which summons a giant bone claw to attack enemies.

The remaining two spells are all elemental spells of the Spiritual Mystery School - Fireball Spell and Lightning Arrow, which are extremely powerful spells that can be learned during the apprenticeship.

Similarly, the rune patterns of these six spells have been confirmed, and they are six-pointed star patterns that can be fused with the Death Origin Rune.

Wayne couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the less than 40 gold pounds left.

Whether these spells are powerful or not is not mentioned for the time being, but they are really expensive.

If it weren't for the fact that he earned his first pot of gold through the Secret Investigation Division, and the profits from the potions he made were enough, I'm afraid that he would be like that phantom now, with no origin descendant and no few spells, right?

But fortunately, after this exchange, in a short period of time, he no longer lacked the means to fight.

In the next time, he only needs to study the runes step by step, and learn the knowledge of the mechanical school with Jerry's Codex, which is enough to deal with the subsequent battles.

After a while, a sound came from the blue and white box, and the spell of exchange had arrived.

Wayne didn't waste any time, and after taking out those parchments, he began to draw runes in an orderly manner according to the previous steps, upgrade the rune level, and then fuse the Death Origin Rune......

After the whole six spells were fused, the time was 4 o'clock in the morning.

With the lightning and thunder outside the window, Wayne inscribed these spells one by one on the two origin children of the ghost and the secret master.

The rune marks on his forehead increased by three each, and the eyes of the second driver were straight with envy.

[You have successfully branded the Claw of the Undead Rune (Reaper) and learned the Claw of the Undead (Reaper), level 1. Evaluation: Behemoth bones are also bones, right? Special Rewards: Survival Point +8, Tenacity Level +2, Spirit Level +2. 】

[Note 1: Claw of the Dead (Reaper) Level 1, Spirit Cost 10, Effect: In the name of the Reaper, summon one of the finger bones of the King of Bones in the depths of the undead world.] 】

[Note 2: The power of one of the Bone King's finger bone attacks is comparable to that of a captain-level 1 hit.] 】

[Note 3: Each level up, add a finger bone, and the attack power will stack with the level.] 】

[You have successfully branded the Spirit Shield Rune (Death) and learned the Spirit Shield (Death), Level 1. Appraise...... Special Rewards: +6 Survival Points, +3 Spirit Level. 】

[Note 1: Spirit Shield (Death) Level 1, Spirit Cost 2, Effect: Defend against attacks against Origin, Soul, and Spirit.] 】

[Note 2: ......]

【Your ...... Success】

With the current spirit level of nearly 200 for Wayne, it is not too difficult to imprint six spell runes at once.

However, the result of fusing the Death Reaper's Origin Rune this time made him a little disappointed.

In addition to the 50 survival points for the Claw of the Dead and Shadow Crunch, the Fireball and Lightning Bolts only cost 20 points, which is the lowest level he has required since obtaining the Death Rune.

Correspondingly, both Fireball and Lightning Bolt only add a burst effect, and no other supernatural perks are attached.

In addition to the high temperature and paralyzing characteristics of the spell itself, it is equivalent to just changing these two spells from a single attack to a group spell attack.

However, the attack power of elemental spells is secondary, and the most important thing is that these two spells can give Wayne more options when facing high-defense transcendents.

For example, Ernaux used to be, his long knife can slash bullets, but it is difficult for him to resist elemental spells such as fireballs or lightning arrows.

The high temperature of the fireball technique alone was not something he could ignore.

The two defensive types of spells, the spirit shield and the bone wall, only need 30 survival points to upgrade, which is considered decent.

However, in terms of effect, after the spiritual shield is amplified by the Death Origin Rune, its defense ability is more comprehensive, and it can not only resist spiritual attacks, but also attacks at the soul and origin levels.

As a defensive spell, the bone wall also improves its defense ability, and compared to the effect of the first level of fusion, it can summon 2 layers of bone wall...... Better than nothing.

"I didn't expect the biggest gain to be the claws of the dead and the shadow entanglement......"

The former can summon the phalanx of the King of Bones, and the initial power is comparable to a captain-level blow, and after upgrading, it can be stacked and considered a very powerful attack spell.

The effect of the latter's shadow entanglement is to increase the range of shadows summoned, and at the same time, the attacks of those arm claws can attach the death trait, which complements the attack of the musket.

After Wayne drank a bottle of enlightenment potion and regained his mental strength, he added all these spells to level two.

Claw of the Dead (Reaper) Level 1 (1/50), (2/50) ...... （50/50）。

[Claw of the Dead (Reaper) Level 1 (50/50), is it raised?] 】

【Lift.】 】

[Congratulations, your skill: Claw of the Dead (Reaper) level 1 has been increased to level 2.] Effect: In the name of the Grim Reaper, summon the two phalanges of the King of Bones from the depths of the undead world. 】

[Congratulations, your skill: Shadow Coil (Reaper) level 1 has been increased to level 2.] Effect ......】

【……】

[Congratulations, your skill: Corpse Explosion (Reaper) level 2 has been upgraded to level 3.] Effect ......】

[Congratulations, your skill: Soul Eater Spell level 3 has been upgraded to level 4.] Effect ......】

"There are so many survival points, but there are less than 100 points left...... To be exact, there are only 15 survival points......"

This time, Wayne didn't save a survival point.

In addition to upgrading the newly learned six spells to level 2, he also deliberately spent 900 survival points to upgrade the corpse explosion (Grim Reaper) and the soul devouring spell by one level each.

Ever since the last time he tried the effects of the Soul Eater spell, he had always had the idea of leveling up the Soul Eater spell.

When he killed Ognyan that time, he gained 2 Origin points through Devouring - it's too strong!

And the same is true of the corpse explosion technique, the actual combat effect is amazing.

After reaching level 3, not only does the explosion range of corpses double, but the pollution speed with the death trait also increases a lot.

Wayne glanced at the panel one last time, and was only half of the spirit level away from being promoted to an official wizard......

When, when......

"It's dawn?"

Wayne recovered from the joy of his increased strength, and when he opened the curtains, he saw that the red moon was fading in the cloudy sky, but the sun did not rise as strangely as the red moon.

Sure enough, only the red moon is the most special......

"Praise the dawn."

Even though it was rainy, the lamplighter in a black robe still came on time.

While praising the greatness of the dawn, carefully open the shades of the street lamps to extinguish the candles, and clean up the oil and wicks so that they can be lit before nightfall.

At the same time, there are gradually more pedestrians on the road, adding a bit of vitality to this silent world.

However, more people suffered misfortune last night than in the past.

It had only been ten minutes since a man with gauze wrapped around his head had come to the Morris Clinic, expecting a cure from this skilled doctor.

Unfortunately, compared to Euan, Carly is obviously not very good at medicine.

Even the Dawn Faith spell she had learned was powerless to do anything to the damage of the deep sea beasts, leaving those who came to ask for help disappointed.

Wayne stood at the window, looking at the people outside, and muttered, "No one is desperate......"

Most of those who came to seek treatment came calmly, and after trying, although disappointed, none of them wailed or despaired.

Just shook his head and sighed, said a word to try somewhere else, and staggered beyond the golden street.

What a strong bunch......

At this time, Claire's lazy voice came from behind her, "What, do you sympathize with them?" ”

"It's not sympathetic, it's just strange how they react."

Wayne didn't look back, his eyes fixed on a petite woman at the end of the Golden Street.

She was one of the first to come to Morris Clinic for help, with a newborn baby in her arms.

Even though she couldn't see anything with her eyes, even if she tripped over and over again, the baby didn't hurt in the slightest......

"This world is like this, what they need is not sympathy and pity, and they don't need any bullshit hope, the reality will tell them that life is hope."

Wayne glanced at her, and unlike before, Claire's eyes had something unclear.

"Perhaps...... You've probably been to a lot of places, but are there other city-states like this? ”

Claire snorted, "Under the light of the red moon, nowhere is spared. ”

"Hmm, I heard that there is a place where there is no red moon hanging high......"

"No, there is no such place in this world. Even if there were, it could only be the place of faith of the Red Moon Church. ”

Wayne nodded thoughtfully, it seemed that he should be more cautious when attending that party.

"You seem to ...... these"

[You are locked by the killing intent of Claire Yuli Biondini (Body).] Comment: Be careful what you say. Reward: +5 Survival Points. 】

“…… When I didn't say anything. ”

Wayne pouted secretly, she was really a sensitive, suspicious and fickle woman.

"Have you read the treasure book that was given to you before?"

"Haven't had time to ...... yet"

Claire glanced at him, "I have plenty of time, but if you do something perfunctory to me......"

"Today, I'll find time to take a look." Before she could finish speaking, Wayne immediately raised his hand in surrender, "But what exactly is recorded on it?" ”

"Part of the historical truth of the Third Age, I told you before."

"Which part is that? You should know that there is a saying among wizards: 'Don't try to pursue knowledge before the Third Age'? ”

"How do I know? I don't know the words. ”

Claire gave him a blank look, turned and walked to the shadows on the side, "I just know that if you don't complete it according to the contract, it won't end up too comfortable......"

"When I come back in the evening, I'll bring you something delicious, remember to keep your stomach."

With that, she disappeared into the shadows of the room.

Not feeling well?

Wayne pouted, wait for me to be promoted to an official wizard, I hope you can still say this!

There is still only one chapter today...... wrote an outline of nearly 10,000 words (the evidence was sent to the group), and it will be a lot smoother later.

In addition, don't talk about my water word count, I haven't posted the content of the spell, it's all a simple overview.

(End of chapter)
