Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 12

Wei En bid farewell to Youan and returned home, the first thing he did when he entered the door was to turn off the "alarm".

After the spiritual level was raised, he was a little unaccustomed to the dazzling light of the rune circle.

After finishing all this, he came to the bedroom upstairs, put the things in his hand on the table, and he was relieved.

"Youan is too careful, saying that I covet Sister Carly's beauty..."

How did he know?
For a girl as perfect as Carly, it's normal to have some unreasonable thoughts, right?

After thinking wildly for a moment, Wei En put his eyes on the suitcase and asked him to see how the secret research department's welfare products are.

This suitcase is not big, but it feels heavy in your hand.

The overall appearance is sky blue, with the gunfire pattern of the Secret Adjustment Department printed on the surface, which is very similar to the musket in Rogert's hand.

I don't know what's inside, which made Somley Arias so proud that he dared to be named "the best standard equipment"...

Hope it's not an exaggeration.

click.

Then he opened the suitcase.

The first thing that catches the eye is a uniform dark green uniform of the logistics department, the style is both handsome and majestic.

After seeing the effect of Lacey and Rogeret wearing it in the morning, Wei En was envious.

He put the uniform aside, looked at the items below, and his eyes lit up, "Musket!"

It is exactly the same as the one in Rogert's hand!
This musket was about thirty centimeters long, and it was silver-white as a whole. There was also a golden pattern on the body of the gun, engraved with the "Gunfire" logo of the Secret Department.The handle of the gun is made of iron wood and is also engraved with the "Gunfire" logo.

He quickly took it out, lovingly posing a few poses, feeling its delicacy and uniqueness.

"I didn't expect the Secret Adjustment Department to be so generous."

Wayne put the musket on the table in satisfaction, and then looked through the other things in the box.

A box of bullets, a sharp dagger, and a few small glass bottles...

Wei En carefully took out the glass bottles and looked at them in front of his eyes. Except for the different colors of the glass, there was no obvious difference.

"Potion? Or something else?"

He couldn't distinguish the usefulness of these things for a while, so he had to put them away again, and wait until tomorrow to ask the captain and them at the secret investigation department.

But these things are the best standard equipment?
Wei En was a little disappointed. Among those fully armed combatants in his previous life, which one didn't have various external weapons?
In comparison, the contents of the suitcase seem too shabby.

But things that come in vain can't be too demanding, at least that musket gave him a lot of sense of security...

"You still have to improve your own strength. These equipments are just foreign objects after all."

Thinking of this, he opened the panel and looked at it.

[You are scanned by Yegor Payne's mental perception, reward: Survival point +1. 】

[You are rewarded by Andris Abra...: survival point +1. 】

[You suffer from the mental shock of Santiago Montoya and fall into a coma (5 seconds).Evaluation: He has attacked you, why not fuck him?Reward: Survival Points +3. 】

[Seven hours of meditation, reward: spiritual level +0.07. 】

Wayne: "..."

Although he knows that he will encounter various dangers when he goes out, but is this too much?
Especially the spiritual perception scan, a total of 12 channels.

And except for Yegor, he had never even heard of the others.

I don’t even know when they were scanned by their spiritual perception. I can only determine based on the order of prompts that the location is in the Secret Adjustment Department.

However, what surprised him the most was—Rodget turned out to be a mental polluter who was about to lose control!
It turned out that when he first met Roger Guy in the morning, the other party's killing intent was not accidental, but really wanted to kill him.

What's more, I didn't expect that "The Peep of the Fate of Forbidden Objects" actually existed!

And a sentence that Lacey said casually during the introduction changed the trajectory of his fate.

So the question is, did she do it on purpose or unintentionally?
It is very simple to know the answer, just see if she will mention it again in the future.

It's not fate peeping that Wayne struggles with, though.

It's about the news that Roger is about to lose control. Do you want to disclose this news to Lacey and the others?
Doing so will definitely bring him some attention, maybe even maliciousness.

If you think about it, you will know that Roget stayed in the Secret Adjustment Department all morning, and even Minister Yegor and Captain Lacey did not notice anything strange about him...

How did he, a rookie investigator who just joined the job, find out?

By strength?The key is that his strength is not strong, and he can't even perceive it with other people's mental scans.

By talent?The talent is to be able to perceive the spiritual pollution of others... so why not be locked up directly as a coolie?

"It gave me a big problem as soon as I came up..."

Wayne is not an indecisive person, he is decisive in most cases.

But after he came to this strange world and learned about those mysteries, he had to be more cautious.

Whether it was those creatures from the abyss or the transcendent who had malicious intentions towards him, they could strangle him to death right now.

"It's better to be careful, I'd rather not do it, and never make a mistake!"

After thinking for a long time, Wei En decided not to speak.

When Roget showed something abnormal, even a little unusual, he could legitimately "guess" that Roget was about to lose control.

However, before that, he also had to pay attention to one thing—absolutely not get along with Rogert alone!
Now that the decision has been made, Wei En has left it behind, and he has not forgotten the main purpose of returning from leave.

That is to use the existing conditions to improve the strength as much as possible.

He looked at the other content on the panel, the toughness level was 14, which was one level higher than before going out.

The mental level has hardly changed, only 0.07 more than yesterday, all due to the hard work of Xiao Asi.

In addition, the survival point has increased from the original 21 points to 38 points, all of which are obtained from the secret research department.

But it's a pity that now he has no other skills to use survival points except for the improvement of ghost thoughts.

Thinking of this, Wei En turned his head and glanced at little Axi, seeing that he was also looking at him, "After raising the level of meditation, you won't harm me, will you?"

"Bar Bar……"

"This kind of thing is useless to call Dad? But the attitude is still correct, let's trust you for once!"

Wei En clicked on the panel without hesitation and chose to upgrade the ghost meditation method.

1/10, 2/10... until you see the prompt on the panel.

[Ghost Meditation Level 1 (10/10), whether to improve? 】

"Yes!"

[Congratulations, your skill: You Hun Ming thought has been upgraded to level 2.Effect: 0.02 spirit level/1 hour. 】

As this prompt appeared, Wei En felt the space in front of him begin to rotate.

"Again?!"

Immediately afterwards, whispers rang in my ears: "Apu, Luno, Ruixi, Oss..."

Two more syllables than before?

This time Wei En only resisted for a moment, then fell into a state of trance again: "One head, two heads, three..."

……

I don't know how long it took, Wei En woke up from a deep sleep, and Xiao Asi's voice came from his ear in a trance.

"Apu."

"dad!!"

"Oss."

"dad!!"

"Rui..."

What the hell?

Why are there two identical voices sounding at the same time?

Wei En opened his eyes, shook his dizzy head, raised his head and glanced in the air, "My eyes are dazzled... Why are there two little Asi?"

He rubbed his eyes and looked again.

"What the hell, are there really two little Axi?"

Above his head, he saw two identical heads - little Axi.

But Wei En observed for a while, and it was easy to tell which one was the old little Axi and which one was the new one.

Little Asi from before shouted: "Dad!!"

The newborn little Asi had a calm face: "Oss."

Wei En got a headache from the noise, "Shut up!"

The former little Asi immediately shut his mouth, and still gave Wei En a look: Baba, you see he is still talking, won't you give me a beating?
Unexpectedly, the newborn little Asi glanced at it, and then closed his mouth, meditating silently.

Little Axi from before: “…”

It also made Wei En, who wanted to rectify the rear, startled, became smarter?

Forget it, just treat it as a vision that comes with meditation.

"However, I finally know why meditation for an hour can increase the spiritual level by 0.02."

Why wouldn't eating with two heads double the effect?

Won't every time the level of meditation increases, a head will be added, right?

Wayne thought about the scene where he had a bunch of heads on his head... That was simply good news for people with trypophobia!

There is no need to fight, just putting this pose out can scare a lot of fools.

Wayne opened the panel again and took a look.

[You have successfully resisted the erosion of the origin of the unknown existence, and your original characteristics have undergone a mutation!Congratulations, you will never return on the road of inhumanity!Special rewards: origin +1, spirit level +1, toughness level +1. 】

"Sure enough... There are rewards for the improvement of meditation skills, but it is a little less than last time."

However, what does it mean "you never return on the road of inhumanity?"

Wei En raised his head and glanced at the two little Axis. It couldn't be that it had developed to the end, and all these heads had grown on him, right?
That's too ugly!
He rubbed the aching brows, "Forget it, it's good to improve your strength, I can't solve it after thinking about it so much."

Now he knows too little about ghosts, and without external help, it is impossible for him to find the cause of the original erosion.

Wayne shook his head, dispelling these thoughts and relieving his headache.

Then he pulled out his pocket watch, opened Ghost's toolbox, and took out the 2 gold pounds and 40 1 shilling coins he had just borrowed from his pocket.

Time waits for no one, so he is going to study the exchange list carefully and redeem some knowledge that can be used at this stage.

""Detailed Explanation of Zero-Level Spells - Basic Textbook for Junior Apprentices", "Introduction to Potions", "Basic Theory of Spells", "Introduction to Runes"..."

There is too much knowledge recorded on the parchment, Wei En can only look at it one by one, and make choices based on the introduction of these knowledge.

No way, the price of this knowledge is too high, and I have never seen anything less than 5 shillings.

Especially the introductory knowledge about potions, alchemy, and runes, each of which is as high as 1 gold pound.

It was literally robbery.

In contrast, those who introduce spell-related knowledge have relatively low prices.

In the end, based on his own situation, Wei En selected four basic knowledge books——

"Basic Theory of Spells and Detailed Explanation of Level 5 Spells", shillings.

"Introduction to Potions - Basic Theory of Potions", 1 gold pound.

Materials Science (Apprentice Edition), 5 shillings.

Potions Recipe (Apprentice Edition), 5 shillings.

A total of 1 gold pound 15 shillings.

After he wrote the names of these knowledge on blank parchment, he put them into the blue and white box together with 35 shilling coins.

"I hope the instructions on the redemption list are true..."

Wei En thought maliciously, what if this exchange list uses exaggerated techniques?
Bah, then he will suffer a big loss!

Not long after, with the sound of "buzz", the blue and white box lit up several halos.

Wei En quickly opened the box and took out all the contents - a letter and four pieces of parchment.

"First of all, congratulations on taking the first step to become a great wizard, but the management office has to explain in advance that you spent a lot of energy learning potions in the early days."

"For the vast majority of junior wizard apprentices, the most important thing is to improve their spiritual level. That is to say, most of the time, you can only and must meditate instead of wasting energy on potions."

"After you raise your spiritual level to level 30 and become an intermediate wizard apprentice, you can then study potions. - Ghost School Apprentice Management Office."

Wei En put down the letter with a smile on his face, not intending to follow the advice of the Apprenticeship Management Office.

Of course he knows that he needs to improve his spiritual level, but who made him a great genius!

But such a good mood disappeared after opening those rolls of parchment.

"What the hell, who asked you to write all your knowledge in Gonzalez?!"

Wei En looked at those twisted and weird words and felt like crying.

He really can't understand it.

no way,

He could only start with the most basic Gonzalez language.

"Gonzales...Gonzales..."

Seeing this distorted face again, Wei En did not panic and used his spiritual power to hold the parchment.

Even little Asi could beat him to the point of calling him daddy, and it was no problem dealing with a piece of parchment with supernatural properties.

In an instant, the piercing screams stopped.Looking at the parchment recording the Gonzales language, it has also been restored to its flatness.

"I didn't expect it to be so easy."

Wei En looked at the fully armed appearance on his body, curled his lips helplessly, "It's really impossible to have no one to teach, it will take a lot of detours..."

However, he has no choice.

The Ghost School has a completely free-ranging attitude towards intelligence officers, and it is impossible to spend time and energy arranging wizards to teach them.

In the eyes of the senior leaders of the school, being able to open the exchange channel is already a special gift.

After all, these scattered intelligence officers are all "defective products" that were eliminated by the entrance examination.
