Chapter 371 The Gift of Magic Potion

It was early morning on the 15th day of the fifth month in the Anam calendar.

Colin went to the True Knowledge Society laboratory as usual.

The sky is gloomy today, with heavy gray and black lead clouds blocking all the sunlight. The thin cold of spring turns into a little drizzle and falls, which is a bit desolate.

After walking a few steps outside, I didn't see a public carriage. Wizards walking in a hurry could be seen everywhere on the road.

Most of the wizards did not hold umbrellas, or they held rain-proof witchcraft.

boom!

Suddenly, there was a dull sound not far away.

A burst of fierce sounds and shouts came faintly.

Colin paused for a moment and vaguely heard words such as "law enforcement team" and "violation of management regulations."

He shook his head, took a few quick steps forward, and stopped a public carriage that had just come over.

"drive!"

The carriage drove quickly and soon arrived at the Zhenzhihui.

Colin stepped out of the car and looked towards a house not far away. Under the dark sky there, there were faint wizards from the law enforcement team hanging in the air.

In addition to the noise he heard before stopping the carriage and the law enforcement team he saw now, Colin also saw two similar scenes on the way he came in the carriage just now.

This is the law enforcement team conducting a search in accordance with the decree promulgated on the 12th - a search against wandering wizards.

The wizards of the law enforcement team will use a special witchcraft to detect the fluctuations and levels of magic energy to conduct searches - after all, when the wizard is doing research, no matter how perfect the aura is, unless the magic stone is used for energy throughout the process, Otherwise, it is inevitable to consume magic energy.

And as long as there is consumption of magic energy, it can be detected.

Even if a small number of wizards can avoid such detection by using magic stones throughout the process, it does not hurt. First, this method is destined to only a few wizards. Second, as Colin observed, in fact, the law enforcement team does not The implementation of this management regulation is too strict. What they seem to need is more general control.

In fact, such a search operation started yesterday. If a wandering wizard is found to have failed to report, or has reported false information, he will be severely warned by the law enforcement team.

Although there was no substantial punishment, in Colin's view, such a search operation was somewhat outrageous.

After all, the decree was just issued two days ago, so it stands to reason that the time for filing should be at least a week.

After all, considering the special nature of wizards, sometimes it is normal to not go out or see anyone for a week in order to research or learn new witchcraft.

It's a pity that no one cares about the opinions of wandering wizards.

After calming down his thoughts, Colin quickly walked into the Castle of True Knowledge, came to the laboratory, and continued today's research.

After the frost talent broke through the limit, the improvement it brought to him was huge, and it could even be called a qualitative change.

This qualitative change is not only reflected in the fact that the ice attack power that Colin releases casually is far more powerful than before, almost reaching the first-order median witchcraft level, but it is also reflected in the subtle control of frost power.

This is a bit like studying art in a previous life. Some people use colors more accurately and more aesthetically.

Since the frost talent limit was exceeded, Colin suddenly felt cheerful when it came to witchcraft research.

The ice element that was always collapsing suddenly became stable, and some obstacles that interfered with the formation of combined witchcraft were solved naturally without having to deliberately overcome them.

But virtually nothing else has changed.

It can only be said that some things are indeed useful without hard work. This is true in many things. Talent may be more important.

All in all, he has now overcome the most critical difficulty in combining the Black Mist Web and the summoned ice element - combining the Silent Shadow and the ice element.

Next, you only need to perfect the remaining parts step by step, and you will be able to successfully obtain a new witchcraft that is an initial combination of the two!

And now it is May 15th, and the remaining parts have actually been solved. Colin predicts that if there are no accidents, I am afraid that he will be able to successfully build a preliminary version in the evening!

In this way, time passed quickly with concentration. The rain gradually stopped and the clouds slowly dispersed, but what was revealed was the dark night sky.

In the True Knowledge Society Laboratory.

Colin took a long breath and straightened up from the experimental table.

He twisted his neck, slowly closed his eyes, and carefully constructed the new witchcraft model he had just designed in his mind.

‘It seems...has been completed? ’

After a while, Colin opened his eyes, still feeling a little unreal.

This time the model does not seem to have any loopholes, and there are no bugs in the simulation...

After thinking for a while, he summoned the golden paper with a thought.

Pale golden particles slowly gathered in front of him.

On the gold paper, the net of black mist and the black characters summoning the ice element have been blurred together, as you can see here.

Colin finally had a real feeling, and an uncontrollable surprise suddenly appeared in his heart!

In fact, this is often the case.

When you cross a hill and reach a destination, at the moment of completion, there is actually not that much passion, but only the calmness that comes naturally. You often look back later, and only when those trickles converge into the turbulence in your heart can you feel There will be a deeper feeling.

Colin couldn't hide the joy on his face, and he continued to think.

The blurry characters on the gold paper, which were a combination of the Black Mist Net and the Summoned Ice Element, gradually became clear, and finally became - Elemental Net!

And this witchcraft also directly opened up a new column on the gold paper - the second-level high-level witchcraft, becoming the most powerful witchcraft that Colin currently has in his hands!

The only pity is that as a combined witchcraft, Colin cannot yet see its full picture.

Just as the original use of the Black Mist Web requires collecting suitable materials in advance and transforming them into Silent Shadows, the current Elemental Web witchcraft also requires the ice element to be transformed first before it can be cast at any time.

Besides... Colin continued to look at the gold paper.

This elemental web witchcraft, strictly speaking, can be regarded as the first new witchcraft that he did not rely on gold paper to break the limit, but relied on his own research and fusion.

This undoubtedly opens up a new path for the future. After all, on gold paper, if you want to fuse two witchcrafts, you must break the limits of the two witchcrafts to gold.

And breaking the limit to gold, no matter what kind of witchcraft is, is not easy and requires a lot of time.

‘It would be great if Gold Paper could independently control the fusion of witchcraft…’ Colin suddenly thought.

If the gold paper can be merged between the two without waiting for the witchcraft to break through to gold, it will undoubtedly greatly reduce the workload.

But that was just an unrealistic fantasy... Colin shook his head and opened the copper pocket watch with a snap. The time on it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

These days, he usually goes home around 11 o'clock, and there is still an hour left.

Colin thought for a while and finally had no intention of continuing. He packed up the laboratory and prepared to go home early.

After all, one hour is not enough to transform the ice element.

Walking out of the laboratory, Colin knew without feeling that he was the only one left in the entire True Knowledge Society castle.

Since the implementation of the Wizard Research Management Regulations in recent days, the True Knowledge Society Castle has been designated as a key area of ​​concern by unknown parties. Members of the law enforcement team come to inspect it almost every day.

Although they didn't cross the line, they just checked the magic energy fluctuations across the laboratory, and occasionally asked a few questions after the wizard came out.

But this undoubtedly greatly dampened the interest of those wizards who originally conducted knowledge research in the True Knowledge Society.

As of today, except for Colin, no wizards in the Castle of True Knowledge continue to conduct research here, and they may have all moved elsewhere.

After all, except for the location, there was no censorship information reported before, so most wizards probably had reservations when answering the questions.

It's fine that there aren't many searches like other places, but like the True Knowledge Society, which basically comes every day to search... basically no wizard can stand it.

Now that the new Elemental Web witchcraft has been successfully researched, Colin is also thinking about where to go next for witchcraft research and daily witchcraft practice.

After all, the final research content of the Web of Elements that he has been promoting in the past few days is more theoretical, and there will basically be no abnormal fluctuations in magic energy.

Even if he could only summon a second-level ice elemental, there was no difference from the information he reported, so he didn't need to pay too much attention to the inspection by the law enforcement team.

Moreover, I don’t know if it was his illusion or because of Jin Yu’s identity——

Colin always felt that the law enforcement teams would have a better attitude towards him and rarely caught him to ask questions.

The other members of the True Knowledge Society who are researching here are basically being questioned every day.

So he was doing pretty well these days.

But if you want to conduct new research and daily witchcraft practice, you may have to find another place.

When we walked out of the Castle of True Knowledge, it was pitch black outside. It was extremely dark tonight, with no moon or even stars.

Colin felt a little melancholy. The rent in Neustadt was not cheap, and there were very few places that could afford second-level witchcraft practice.

If you leave the True Knowledge Society, it may not be easy to find such a cheap place again.

It was past ten o'clock in the evening, and there were very few public carriages. Colin did not try to look for them, but activated his flying magic as usual, slightly lifted off the ground, and flew towards his home in a suspended state.

In this dangerous world, nightlife is always scarce.

Perhaps in some big cities in previous lives, the flow of people on the streets at ten o'clock at night was no different from the street traffic during the day, and some were even more - after all, for many migrant workers, regardless of whether they were interested or not, it was true that Only in the evenings do I have free time to go shopping.

But in the city of Neustadt, at ten o'clock in the evening, the crowds were extremely sparse, and the familiar broad avenue in front of us was basically empty, and the only sound was the sound of insects.

Colin was used to such silence.

So when he suddenly heard some whispers while passing by a certain neighborhood, he didn't react for a moment, and his flying speed subconsciously slowed down.

"Have you brought the potion?" a slightly shrill voice asked urgently.

"Don't worry, when have I, Ye Xiao, ever been unreliable in my work?!"

"It's you, have you brought the magic stone? The magic potion 'gift' is not cheap."

Colin shook his head, it looked like it was just an ordinary shady transaction, and he was about to speed away.

But the next moment, the words that the shrill voice continued to speak made him frown slightly and stop again.

"Of course I brought the magic stone, that's enough, I also want the magic potion 'Mercy', can you get it?"

'Potion of mercy...' Colin's heart moved slightly.

He knew about this potion. The reason why Joyce, who had attacked him in the Far North, was able to explode into the strength of a second-order senior wizard as a second-order junior wizard was because of this potion called mercy.

Of course, Colin didn't know at the time that the potion Joyce had taken was Mercy, the name coming from information he picked up while examining Joyce's largely empty storage ring.

Colin subconsciously restrained his aura, blessing himself with hidden witchcraft and hiding it at the base of the street wall.

The conversation between Night Owl and the high-pitched voice continued.

"Mercy... is a bit difficult to deal with. Why do you, a first-level wizard, need it? Mercy can allow a second-level wizard to reach the second-level advanced level, but the first-level wizard can only be promoted to the first-level advanced level at most. The first-level wizard is too cost-effective. It’s low.”

The high-pitched voice remained silent, as if aware that the question he asked was a bit sensitive, Ye Xiao paused and took the initiative to change the topic.

"If you insist, prepare at least 500,000 magic stones and I can get them for you."

"Five million magic stones?!" The shrill voice was shocked.

"Keep your voice down!" Ye Xiao scolded, "What else? Mercy is not like a gift, it only increases the speed of thinking and promotes the birth of inspiration."

"Gifts are just witchcraft research at best, while mercy is a genuine magic potion that can directly and significantly increase your strength.

This is equivalent to a second life. I don’t need to explain how important it is, right? "

The high-pitched voice was silent for a long time and did not continue the topic. He just said to Ye Xiao:

"Here, this is the magic stone. Count the number."

"Okay." Night Owl's voice couldn't conceal his joy. After checking, he handed the potion to the shrill voice: "Happy cooperation. Please take the potion. There are three bottles in total. Each potion is effective for about half a day. Each bottle is effective for about half a day. There needs to be an interval of at least twelve hours between taking the bottle..."

"Okay, I understand, happy cooperation." The high-pitched voice said impatiently, followed by the sound of footsteps that were getting further away.

"If you still need magic potion, just come to me at the same place!" Ye Xiao didn't care and just continued.

He put away the magic stone, turned and walked out of the alley.

Uh-huh!

However, at the next moment, Ye Xiao felt a surge of energy quickly approaching the back of his neck, which made him tremble and subconsciously resist.

But before the witchcraft in his hand was finished brewing, it had already dissipated under the interference of another force. At the same time, a soundproof witchcraft quickly enveloped the place.

Night Owl's face turned pale under his mask, and he suddenly realized the gap between himself and the wizard behind him. He hesitated and gave up resistance.
