Chapter 396 Tutkash
"Thank you." Ryan took the information with a smile and said.
"Hmm? Lava Fire Dragon 'Hemados'?"
At first glance, Ryan saw the first dragon killing task.
When he saw this, he immediately understood why Olena suggested that he consider the following tasks instead of the first one.
Because the two words 'fire dragon' represent many meanings, the fire dragon is a subspecies of the red dragon, and has a very high control over the fire element.
In addition, as a subspecies of dragons, the combat power of the other party after adulthood is second only to the five-color dragon, far exceeding other dragon creatures.
"Adolescent dragon, the other party lives in the Blade Crater of Mosel Province. At present, a team of adamantium sword bearers at the headquarters has failed the mission. According to reports, the other party's combat power has reached the peak of legend."
"Especially in the volcanic environment, the other party's combat power is comparable to epic wisdom, and it is difficult to lure the other party into a trap." Ryan immediately read it in detail.
Seeing that Ryan did not seem to flip to the back, but looked at the first lava fire dragon task with interest.
This made Olena frown slightly, and she thought to herself, 'Did I say something wrong just now, and instead gave Lord Ryan a sense of provocation? '
After hesitating for a while, Olena said tactfully: "Lord Ryan, the fire dragon's fire breath is extremely powerful, and the ultra-high temperature damage will melt most metals instantly."
"Thank you for your concern." Ryan smiled and said.
Of course, he knew that Olena meant well, and was reminding him tactfully that when facing a fire dragon, the metal witchcraft he was good at might not be very useful.
But for him, he was more concerned about the blood concentration of dragon creatures, or in other words, the purity of dragons.
Generally speaking, a fire dragon like this contains more dragon genes than the unorthodox dragons such as the Corrupted Dragon and the Proto-Dragon he had killed before.
In other words, if he succeeded in killing it, the increase in his dragon blood concentration would be higher.
This is why Ryan basically decided to choose this task in his heart.
However, since the purge of the Sword Bearer Headquarters was nearing its end, it had not yet ended. Therefore, although Ryan had made a choice in his mind, he did not intend to take the task immediately.
"Sir Olena, when the purge is over, tell me. Leave these materials here first, and I will take a look at them slowly."
"Okay, Lord Ryan." Olena was relieved.
It seems that Lord Ryan understood what she meant.
In the next few days, he changed from the original two-point line to the current three-point line.
That is, the mansion, the school station, and the Royal Pharmacist Association headquarters.
In terms of time allocation, Ryan spent most of his time learning to prepare potions.
Although advanced potions are only taken by ordinary people when they enter the extraordinary, the difficulty of making them is not low. No wonder the potion he needed at that time seemed to be asked to ask a master of the Royal Pharmacist Association to help make it.
Ryan still remembers that the potion he took had the words "Inigo Offasteen" on the nameplate.
And he also found out about this potion master through Alyosha.
As he had expected at first, these potion masters were all formal wizards, even Master Inigo and Master Cabrera, Alyosha's mentor, were both second-level liquefaction wizards, and their strength was quite strong.
Think about it, when preparing potions, the requirements for various dosages are extremely high. Only with strong enough mental power can this be achieved, and at the same time, there are basically no mistakes in the long-term preparation process.
Otherwise, every failure means the loss of various rare materials.
I saw Ryan holding a glass beaker filled with blue liquid, shaking it slightly to mix it, and squeezing the dropper with the other hand to continuously drip transparent liquid.
"Sir Ryan, your preparation accuracy is simply amazing." Alyosha, the 'genius potion girl' on the side, couldn't help but admire it.
Although Ryan had demonstrated his excellent potion preparation skills since he started preparing advanced potions a few days ago, what shocked Alyosha was Ryan's learning speed and extraordinary preparation accuracy.
After Ryan mixed the liquid, he slowly poured it onto a translucent object like a cow tendon, which was taken from the tendon of the fierce species 'Shadow Leopard'.
When Alyosha saw Ryan successfully complete the last step, he couldn't help but applaud excitedly.
"Ryan, this Shadow Leopard potion is very well made." Master Cabrera, who was in charge of teaching, stroked his goatee and smiled as he watched this scene.
If Ryan in front of him was not already an Imperial Gold-level swordsman, he would have tried to find a way to accept him as a disciple, but now, he could only hide this regret in his heart.
Ryan also smiled.
This was his second potion making formula after mastering the 'Black Water Crocodile's Tail'. He was only one step away from mastering the three potions.
"I have to thank Master Cabrera for his careful guidance, and Miss Alyosha for her help." Ryan smiled and bowed to the two of them, thanking them.
That afternoon.
In Mogaro's laboratory at the Bishu Construction School.
Mogaro took Ryan to a huge metal puppet lying on the ground, and said with a little pride:
"Ryan, this is the new golem I transformed from the giant axe golem guard of the Black Flame Cult according to your request. It is made of metal components."
"The overall power is a small furnace driven by hellfire crystals, which can release shadow and fire related witchcraft. Of course, this requires the addition of relevant witchcraft inscriptions."
"Currently, witchcraft inscriptions for shadow arrows and fireballs have been added."
As Mogaro described in detail, Ryan nodded frequently.
He didn't expect that he himself had not yet mastered the fireball technique, but his puppets had learned it first.
As early as the day he returned from the secret realm of the Fiery Canyon, he was thinking about this matter.
Since he had obtained thirteen hellfire crystals, could he try to make a giant axe golem guard?
But after thinking about it carefully, there are still several problems.
First of all, the giant axe golem guard is essentially a large rock-based constructed puppet. The whole body is made of stone parts, not metal, and is not suitable for him to play.
Therefore, the first difficulty is how to replace all its constructed parts with metal materials through drawings.
Metal-based puppets are compatible with his super metal and complement each other.
At that time, he could not only change the weapons of the war golem at any time, change the metal material of specific parts of the golem, etc., but also, from another perspective, the metal golem also became his "arsenal" in disguise.
Secondly, according to the original drawings, the giant axe golem guard was as high as seven or eight meters, and once it moved, it would make a lot of noise.
So, Ryan thought of the metal arm of the iron man, and at that time he asked his mentor Mogaro whether the size of this golem could be reduced a little.
Because of Ryan's two requirements, Mogaro spent a lot of effort, and after putting down his old face and asking several puppet masters of the rock system for advice, he finally completed the finished product in front of him.
"Ryan, now after precision processing and proportional reduction, the height of this steel war golem is only four meters, but its melee power is not reduced at all, comparable to the original eight-meter giant axe golem guard."
"Thank you for your hard work, mentor." Ryan bowed slightly to Mogaro and thanked him.
Recently, he himself did not have so much time and energy, nor could he spend precious skill points to study the improvement of the golem, so at the beginning of this matter, he entrusted it to his mentor Mogaro.
Ryan did not expect Mogaro to be so attentive.
The war golem produced exceeded his expectations in all aspects.
"Teacher, has this new golem been named?"
"Not yet, I called you here this time to let you name it." Mogaro said with a smile.
"No, no, teacher, you have invested so much effort in this matter, it is most appropriate for you to name it." Ryan shook his head and said.
"This"
"How about calling it the Hellfire Golem? Its power source, the Hellfire Crystal, is the most rare thing."
"Okay! Call it the Hellfire Golem." Ryan smiled, nodded, and said.
Two more days passed.
In the headquarters of the Royal Pharmacist Association.
When Ryan successfully produced the third advanced potion, 'Lungs of the Bright Scale Electric Eel', the system prompt also sounded:
[Ding! It is detected that the host has mastered the production of three advanced potions, triggering the subsequent job transfer of Breaking Bad (Super) - Potion Master (Legend)! 】
[The prerequisites for the job transfer to Potion Master (Legend) are: 1. Super-level potion-related profession lv5 or above; 2. Spirit 30 points or more; 3. Master the production of three or more advanced potions. All the current conditions are met! 】
[. Yes/No to complete the job transfer to Potion Master (Legend)? 】
[Note: After the job transfer to Potion Master (Legend), the job panel of Breaking Bad (Super) will be covered. 】
Ryan took a look and chose "Yes" without hesitation!
[Ding! Job transfer successful! 】
[Job transfer to Potion Master (Legend) successful! Constitution +3, Agility +2, Spirit +5! Obtain the core skills of Potion Master (Legend): Potion Control lv1 (Passive). 】
[Potion Control lv1 (Passive): Since you have devoted yourself to the study of potion making for many years, your potion success rate has increased slightly, and at the same time, the effects of all the potions you configure have been additionally improved. 】
(Note: If you configure poison, the difficulty of the poison being removed by antidotes or witchcraft such as "poison removal" will increase slightly.)
"This new core skill "Potion Control" is basically an upgraded version of the original Breaking Bad (Super) core skill "Deadly Poison", which has been expanded from poison to all super potions."
"In addition, the original Breaking Bad's other skill "Poison Resistance" has long been fused with the blood of the mutant dragon, so it is not considered to have disappeared." Ryan thought to himself.
That afternoon, when Ryan returned to the mansion, he received a small surprise.
There was a brown wooden box on his desk, and three soul crystals were placed inside.
This was the beautiful woman Jennifer, who had just sent it by airship.
Seeing the soul crystals, Ryan couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Obviously, one of the main reasons why Jennifer stayed in Munster was to use the convenience of being a shareholder of the Axon Auction House to help him collect some things, including soul crystals.
Fortunately, now including Lagre and the Ice Claw Bear Mercenary Group are all by Jennifer's side, plus the care of the Duke of Munster and Admiral Edward, I dare not say that safety is absolutely no problem, but at least there is considerable guarantee.
"Knock knock knock!"
At this time, a knock on the study door sounded, interrupting Ryan's thoughts.
"Please come in."
Olena walked into the study with a smile, holding a deed in her hand, and said:
"Lord Ryan, the compensation from the Drum family has arrived. It is a manor in the suburbs of the imperial capital, plus 200,000 imperial gold coins."
Olena said, and couldn't help but be shocked.
According to her salary level, she would have to save for 273 years without eating or drinking to save up this huge amount of money.
What's more, there is the suburban manor.
She also went to see the manor on site. It covers an area of nearly 20 acres and has beautiful scenery. According to the market conditions in the imperial capital Tamriel, it is worth at least 100,000 gold coins.
However, Ryan was not very moved when he heard this amount. Instead, he flipped through the deed casually, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Lord Olena, please help me put this manor up for sale, and remit it to Jennifer together with the 200,000 imperial gold coins." After a while, Ryan said.
"Okay, Lord Ryan. But, do you really want to go and see the manor?"
"It's too far out in the suburbs. Even if I dare to live there, the safety of my family is not guaranteed." Ryan shook his head.
"Okay, Lord Ryan, I'll do it now." Olena said with a look of realization.
After Olena left, Ryan picked up three soul crystals and absorbed them through the system.
A few seconds later, Ryan glanced at the system panel:
"Spirit: 98 (liquefied 85%)"
"Three soul crystals, increased by 3%."
"This should be partly due to the fact that I have been practicing the second level of the Iron Heart Advanced Meditation Method every day during this period."
"Otherwise, the effect of the soul crystal alone may not reach 3%." Ryan raised his eyebrows and thought to himself.
——
At the same time.
In a deep underground cave at the westernmost part of the Cyrodiil Plateau.
Many figures wearing black robes, with different forms of skulls or spiders tattooed on their chests, were busy going back and forth.
This was the residence of Tutkash, a secret school that specialized in necromancy.
Deep in the cave, in a spacious cavern, a black-robed wizard with disheveled hair was sewing something on a huge table.
From a distance, a huge deformed creature was placed on the table.
The upper body of this deformed creature was a strong, muscular man who looked like a giant, and the lower body was a giant poisonous scorpion, and the two seemed to be forcibly grafted together by some kind of witchcraft.
Although only the upper body of the muscular man was left, the length of his body was more than 1.5 meters.
Judging from the rough facial features and the stone-like muscle shape, he seemed to be a legendary strongman among the Breton people.
At this time, the black-robed wizard was slightly bent over, holding a large sewing needle with a strong black witchcraft aura in his hand, flying up and down, sewing the flesh and skin at the seams of the two.
"Master Staven, the master of the sect wants you to come over." At this time, a young man in an apprentice robe appeared at the door and bowed.
Facing the words of the messenger, the black-robed wizard named Staven naturally heard it.
But he did not react at all, and was still concentrating on sewing the deformed creature in his hand.
The wizard apprentice who sent the message did not care at all when he saw this scene, and still stood respectfully at the door.
He knew very well that the master Staven in front of him was the top powerhouse of his own school.
As early as decades ago, the other party was a wizard at the peak of the third-level crystalization, especially good at making mutant undead creatures, proficient in curses and shadow witchcraft, and his current strength is even more unfathomable.
After about ten minutes, Staven put down the sewing tools in his hand and slowly turned around.
Under the messy hair, there was a pair of bloodshot eyes that looked almost paranoid, as if he had not had a good rest for a long time, but the madness and paranoia contained in them could make outsiders feel the owner of the eyes' firm pursuit.
"Let's go!"
"Okay, Lord Staven, the leader is waiting for you in the laboratory, please follow me."
Soon, Staven followed the wizard apprentice servant to a magnificent underground hall with a height of more than ten meters.
An unusually tall and bloated man in a black robe was hunched over, doing experiments on a long table full of experimental instruments.
However, when Staven appeared at the door, the man in the black robe immediately noticed it.
He turned his head and revealed his pale and bloodless face hidden under the hood.
However, when he walked towards Staven, the most shocking thing was his lower body.
Although the opponent's lower body was covered by a black robe, the exposed part was the ankle, which was now exposed to four pairs of spider-like arthropods.
No wonder the opponent looked bloated.
That was because the opponent's lower body was no longer a normal human, but had transformed into a spider's teardrop-shaped abdomen.
But judging from the faintly revealed strong and evil aura, the opponent was actually an epic-level warrior at the level of a Dawn Wizard.
"Staven, it seems that your strength has improved again. It seems that you will have the opportunity to enter the Dawn Wizard soon." The opponent looked at Staven twice, smiled, and said.
"The experiment still failed." Staven shook his head, as if he did not agree with the words of Graham, the leader of the Tutkash sect in front of him.
"It's okay. If it doesn't work, you can choose to follow the same path as me and perform the Spider God prayer ceremony to seek help. This is also a shortcut to becoming a Level 4 Dawn Wizard." Graham smiled palely and comforted.
"Okay, if it doesn't work, I'll consider it." Staven glanced at the other party, nodded, and said.
"By the way, I asked you to come here this time because I want you to kill a Dragun Empire's adamantine swordsman." Graham talked about business.
"I've been busy with experiments recently, why don't you let Cyprian go?" Staven frowned and said.
"Two reasons. One is that this request is from the Isolder School of Wizards. You know, we are both in the Cyrodiil Plateau. If they turn a blind eye to some things, our school can live comfortably."
"The second reason is that according to intelligence, this Imperial Sword Bearer has the ability to transform through blood, and he also killed Greg, a legendary Breton man nicknamed 'Corpse Splitter'."
"I know the experiment you are doing recently. Although you have obtained the corpse of a legendary Breton man, the compatibility problem has been bothering you."
"Since this Imperial Sword Bearer has the ability to kill Greg, the 'Corpse Splitter', and his strength is even greater than your current corpse, perhaps his body will help you solve the compatibility problem."
Hearing this, Staven's bloodshot eyes immediately raised and stared at the head of the Tutkash School in front of him.
"Okay! Give me a day, I will forcibly fuse this stitched monster in my hand, and then I will set off." Staven thought for a while and agreed.
"Well, here is the other party's information. The other party's combat power seems to be greatly improved after the transformation. You can take this bottle of Spider God's Blood first." Graham handed over a bottle of blood-colored test tube emitting a hazy witchcraft aura.
"I know." Staven seemed to hesitate for a moment and reached out to take the bottle of Spider God's Blood.
Staven knew very well that once he took the Spider God's Blood, although his strength would surge and he would most likely become the long-awaited Dawn Wizard, this also meant a choice that could not be turned back.
At that time, he would gradually throw himself into the arms of the Spider God Neyobrekhan, just like the sect leader in front of him.
At least in his cognition, if he relied on this to enter the fourth-level Dawn Wizard, he would not be a real Dawn Wizard, but more like a high-level priest of a cult.
Therefore, over the past few decades, he has been insisting on trying to fuse two or more legendary creatures together through special necromancy witchcraft to create a stitched monster with epic strength.
If successful, he will not only obtain an epic stitched monster, but also successfully enter the level of a fourth-level dawn wizard.
This is also one of the ways of promotion of the necromancer wizard school Tutkash since ancient times.
Three days later.
In the study of the Ren's mansion in the imperial capital Tamriel.
"Lord Ren, Major General Tatia asked me to inform you that the purge has been completed and you can accept the headquarters' mission at any time." Olena, wearing a pair of black hunting pants and a white floral shirt, smiled.
"Okay, I know. By the way, Your Excellency Olena, how is the recruitment of team members mentioned last time?" Ryan asked.
"I was just about to report to you. Your Excellencies Claire and Beyonce have been overwhelmed recently with this matter." Olena covered her mouth and chuckled, saying.
"Generally speaking, there are too many people who want to join your team, and it is difficult for them to decide who to choose. Four candidates have been initially selected, and it is up to you to decide in the end."
As she spoke, Olena handed Ryan a stack of information, which was the introduction of these four people.
"Why are they all women?" Ryan took a quick look and looked at Olena in surprise.
"Didn't you tell them that it would be best to find two male team members?"
"Uh" For a moment, Olena blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Ryan innocently, not knowing what to say.
