Above the mage!

Chapter 29 [Hidden Mist Technique]

The magic runes on the Fang of Hidden Mist have become intact, regaining their luster and presenting a magical charm.

Its magical power did not seem to be weakened by the previous damage. Instead, it seemed to have become more stable and powerful after being baptized by [Repair +].

Goder focused his mental energy on the repaired Hidden Mist Fang with great anticipation.

Immediately, relevant information flowed back:

You can cast the first-level spell [Concealing Mist] once a day without any cost.

When casting the Hidden Mist spell, the Hidden Mist Fang will be demonized, causing higher damage when attacking.

[Conjuration] (1st level):

A cloud of mist 20 feet high and 20 feet in radius rises around you for minute, centered on you.

The fog is static and blocks all vision, including darkvision. No creature can see anything 5 feet (about 1.6 meters) away, and vision is greatly reduced within 5 feet.

A gentle breeze can blow away the clouds in twenty seconds.

Strong winds can blow it away in five seconds.

The mist will be burned away by the flames.

This spell has no effect in water.

It is a spell that does not have lethality.

Disappointed?
A little bit, but not much.

After all, when Gao De heard the name, he could roughly guess that it would not have any lethality.

At least it's not the worst situation - after all, it's a spell useful in combat, rather than a purely auxiliary spell like Repair.

Moreover, there are unexpected surprises.

In addition to its own first-level spell, the Fang of Hidden Mist actually has an additional effect: demonization.

This is equivalent to an extraordinary item that comes with two spells.

There is no false person under the great reputation.

The Oakenley Chamber of Commerce is truly extraordinary as it can be called the most powerful magic alchemy and creation chamber of commerce in the entire continent.

Gaode really wanted to try out the power of the Hidden Mist Fang after it was transformed into a demon.

But considering that Master Seda was in the medicine garden, if he made any noise and attracted Master Seda's attention, there would be a risk of exposing himself in advance, so he decided to give up.

How to use this first level spell?
Gao De fell into deep thought.

The alchemist who created the Fang of the Hidden Mist had an idea:
Use the Hidden Mist Technique to create an environment conducive to close combat, and then attack with the Hidden Mist Fangs whose power has been greatly increased after being demonized.

Very good linkage.

The problem is that if you want to attack with the Fang of Hidden Mist, you must actively get close to Master Seda.

The Sedan wizard has at least two spells that require contact to be effective.

This is contrary to the way Gaode envisioned fighting.

"Huh?!" Gao De, who was thinking hard, suddenly noticed a note on the Hidden Mist Technique, and a wonderful idea flashed through his mind.

“Perhaps, it can be used in this way.”

When Gaode returned to the bedroom, it was late at night again.

Amy was already fast asleep as usual.

But this time, Goder was not as cautious as usual. Instead, he came to Amy's bed and patted his shoulder.

"Huh?" Amy woke up dazedly.

"it's me."

"God, what's the matter?" Amy's voice was still hazy, and she hadn't fully woken up yet.

As he spoke, Gaode had already lit the oil lamp in the room through the magician's hand.

In his real hand, there were five three-leaf flower silver coins that were shining with a faint silver light.

"Help me buy some things in the city tomorrow and the remaining money will be your hard work fee." Gao De instructed.

"Ah? Why do you want to buy this?" Stimulated by the silver coin, Amy finally woke up completely, sat up straight, and asked in confusion. "Don't worry about it. It's just a matter of one word whether I will help or not."

Amy lowered her head and thought carefully for a moment, then raised her head and looked at Goder and said seriously: "Well, I don't need any hard work fees, I will help you for free."

Gao De nodded and said seriously, "Thank you."

Time just passes quietly day by day.

Until the last day of the Awakening Month arrives.

This day was the time for Phil's Potion Shop to restock its stocks.

Just as noon arrived, Master Seda left the medicine garden in person.

Gode, who had been keeping an eye on Master Sedda's whereabouts, knew very well that Master Sedda was going to Phil's Potion Shop to get the last ingredient needed to prepare the potion.

As soon as he saw him leave the medicine garden, Gao De went straight into his workshop.

Of course not for preparing primary spider venom potion.

At this point, he had neither the mood nor the need to do such meaningless work.

Gode ​​is making final preparations before breaking off relations with Master Seda.

He took out the glass bottle that he usually used to pack potions, then cast [Acid Splash+] to obtain acid that could be retained for up to one day, and then put it into the bottle.

He then placed the bottles of homemade acid in various pockets of his clothes.

I checked and confirmed that there would be no unusual noise when moving and it was not obvious from the outside, so I breathed a sigh of relief.

Do your best to obey fate.

Gaode has made as many preparations as possible within the scope of his limited capabilities. Whether it will succeed in the end will also depend on a bit of luck.

It took Master Seda two full hours to return to the medicine garden.

He specifically picked Gao De who was leaving the workshop at that moment and bumped into him in the corridor.

"Master Mage." Gaode stepped aside and respectfully made way for Master Seda.

Master Seda just glanced at Gaode expressionlessly without replying, and passed by Gaode indifferently.

Only after watching Master Seda's back disappear from his sight did Gao De start walking again.

Although Master Seda tried his best to appear emotionless, he could still clearly sense that there was a keenness in Master Seda's eyes today, indicating that he was in an excited state at the moment.

"Be excited. The more excited the better." Gao De said secretly in his heart.

When Master Seda returned to his room and began to meditate on preparing the potion, Gode was not idle either.

He planned out the details of the final showdown in his mind ahead of time, rehearsing it in his mind.

He carefully considered every possible scenario that might occur after the showdown with Master Seda, rehearsed in his mind various dangers that had not yet occurred, and made corresponding response plans.

Then, we will wait for news from Master Seda, maybe today, maybe tomorrow.

That night, Gao De did not wait for Master Seda's summons, but he almost did not sleep all night.

The first day of the spring bud month.

morning.

In front of the long wooden table.

Master Seda looked obviously tired and seemed a little dazed. He stood there blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time.

He raised his hand, staring at the potion he had just mixed. He shook the bottle gently, his eyes following the movement of the potion inside, his heart also filled with waves and anxiety.

"It should work this time, right?"

Although Master Seda felt that he was very confident this time, he couldn't help but become anxious when the time came.

"Just give it a try and you'll know." Master Seda gritted his teeth, suppressed his restless emotions, and finally stopped worrying about it.

"Call Gao De to try the medicine." he ordered.
