The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 172 The Rich Resources of the Other World
On the sea.

A simple bamboo raft rides the wind and waves.

At the front of the raft, David was wearing a hooded robe to conceal his breath.

Behind him stood three seventh-level dark wizards, their faces respectful.

David's face was gloomy.

He originally thought that the pirates must have hidden treasures.

But the final result was that all three of them were penniless. They only managed to collect ten magic crystals in total, which was poorer than the average low-level wizard apprentice.

There is no way around it. After these dark wizards have completely looted, they will immediately use what they have obtained to exchange for resources to improve their own strength.

For dark wizards, every day is precarious. Only by improving their strength as quickly as possible can they survive in this sea.

However, David still learned the location of a market from these dark wizards, and now he is rushing to the market to conduct a transaction.

Soon, the outline of an island appeared before our eyes.

Lone Whale Market.

This is a wizard market located on Lone Whale Island.

Various forces are intertwined in the market and law and order are lax.

Originally, this was a market spontaneously formed by some wandering wizards to exchange various resources.

Later, a wandering wizard managed to break through to the first ring by chance, and used this place as his base to build a Lone Whale Market.

Therefore, this place is a notoriously lawless area, and both white wizards and black wizards will appear in this free market.

As long as you do not violate the rules set by the owner of the Lone Whale Market, no one will care who you are, so this is also the place where many dark wizards sell their stolen goods.

David stopped far away in the sea. This time he did not plan to go there in person, but attached his mental power to a black wizard servant.

Afterwards, he controlled a seventh-level black wizard named Merck to approach the Lone Whale Island and immediately stepped into the Lone Whale Market.

Instantly, I could sense the strange aromas and energy fluctuations from various magical items filling the air.

In the center of the market is a huge circular square, surrounded by various stalls and shops.

The stall owners came from different wizard organizations, including white wizards and black wizards. Some were dressed in gorgeous robes, while others looked mysterious.

Even the faces of some stall owners were covered by magic, making them unrecognizable.

Here, you can find everything wizard-related, from rare herbs and ancient scrolls to mysterious familiars and forbidden magical tools.

There are many ways to trade. In addition to gold coins, you can also exchange spell knowledge, secret intelligence and even soul contracts.

There is no fixed manager in the market, only a few powerful wizards secretly maintain order.

They will not interfere with normal transactions, but if anyone causes trouble here, they will not hesitate to use powerful magic to subdue them.

David was walking in such an environment, observing his surroundings vigilantly with his extraordinary perception, because he knew that he could be in danger if he was not careful.

soon.

He found some materials to prepare the blue potion.

The materials for this most basic potion are not difficult to find, and are not expensive. You only need one magic crystal to buy all the materials for refining the potion.

David stopped in front of a stall selling potion ingredients. He just dropped the blue potion, and the stall owner directly helped him to get the ingredients.

"How many blue potion materials do you have here?" David asked.

The stall owner looked at the wizard in front of him, who was wearing a hooded robe and covering his face tightly with a scarf, in surprise, and said in a deep voice: "I have twenty copies here."

"Okay, I want them all."

David said, "But the price is cheaper."

A hint of greed flashed across the stall owner's eyes, but it was quickly concealed.

However, this subtle change in his emotions did not escape David, who possessed the gift of telepathy, and David's eyes showed thought.

He had sensed through his extraordinary perception that the stall owner was also at level seven, but he didn't know if there were any other accomplices behind the stall owner.

The two began to bargain, and finally decided to exchange eighteen magic crystals for twenty materials that could be used to refine the blue potion.

"Do you have any potion formula here?" David continued.

"Of course." The stall owner nodded.

The stall owner took out a piece of paper from his pocket. On the paper were densely written the names of the recipes of various potions, including the blue potion.

However, compared to the blue potion in the Eto Bay library, there is also a record of the blue potion for concentration here.

This is an upgraded version of the blue potion. The prepared blue potion is of great benefit to the formal wizard level training.

David asked directly, "How much is the formula for the Azure Concentration Potion?"

The stall owner smiled slightly and held up three fingers: "Fifty magic crystals."

David frowned. This price was indeed not low.

But he also knew that potion formulas have always been a scarce resource in the market, especially those advanced potions with significant effects.

Besides, he felt the greed in the stall owner, thought for a moment, and finally decided to buy, "Okay, fifty magic crystals."

David took out the magic crystal from his arms and handed it to the stall owner.

The stall owner took the magic crystal, his expression showing nothing, but his greed was even greater.

He reminded: "Remember, when refining the Azure Potion of Concentration, the ratio of the heat and the materials is very important. If you are not careful, the potion may fail."

David nodded to show that he understood.

He put away the recipe and ingredients and turned away.

Then, with his extraordinary perception, he discovered that someone was following him. It was obvious that the stall owner was greedy for him.

David showed no sign of panic; he remained calm and continued walking down the street, seemingly unfazed by the stalker behind him.

His extraordinary perception allows him to clearly capture every move of the stalker, and even sense the greed and tension in the other's heart.

David sneered in his heart. This little trick posed no threat to him at all, but he didn't want to let go easily of those who intended to harm him.

Especially the stall owner.

If the stall owner really follows up in person, it will also be an opportunity for him!
David's steps did not hesitate because of the presence of the stalker. He walked through the bustling market as usual, but he had already made a response plan in his mind.

He knew that the stall owner was a seventh-level wizard and his strength should not be underestimated, but David was confident that he was strong enough to deal with it.

David quickened his pace. He needed to find a suitable place to solve this trouble.

He soon arrived at the beach. The sun was slowly setting, the sea was sparkling, and the sea breeze brought a hint of coolness.

He stood on a protruding rock and looked into the distance.

Soon, the stall owner's figure appeared in his perception. He did not come alone, but was accompanied by a seventh-level wizard law enforcer.

Apparently, the stall owner realized that David was not an easy person to deal with, so he asked for help.

However, this did not surprise David, as he had long anticipated this situation.

The stall owners and law enforcers approached David, their eyes gleaming with greed and vigilance.

The stall owner sneered and said, "Young man, you are smart, but not smart enough. Do you think you can escape from me?"

David smiled slightly, his voice calm and confident: "I never thought about escaping, I just chose a more suitable place to solve the problem."

The stall owner and the law enforcer looked at each other. They both heard something unusual in David's words, but they didn't care too much.

In their opinion, a young wizard, even if he had some talent, would never be their opponent.

The most important thing is that this place is still under the influence of the Lone Whale Market. As long as the law enforcers send out a signal, reinforcements will arrive immediately.

But David obviously wouldn't give them a chance.

With his extraordinary perception, he scanned and found that there was no one else. A sharp light flashed in his eyes. He quickly formed complex hand seals with his hands and chanted ancient spells in a low voice.

As he moved, the air around him began to fluctuate violently and the sea breeze suddenly became stronger, as if controlled by some invisible force.

At this moment, a brilliant elemental magic circle slowly emerged on the rock under David's feet, emitting dazzling light.

In the magic circle, the power of the four elements of wind, water, earth and fire are intertwined, forming a wonderful balance, but also containing destructive power.

The stall owners and law enforcers were stunned by this sudden change.

They never thought that the other party had set up a magic circle, and they never thought that a young wizard could control such powerful force!
A deep fear suddenly surged in their hearts, knowing that they had miscalculated. The opponent's strength could not be judged by the sixth-level aura emitted by him.

They even had a feeling that the other party might have deliberately lured them here, which made them feel their hair stand on end in an instant!
The law enforcer immediately activated the communication spell, but he was horrified to find that he had lost contact with his companions in the outside world!
In addition to the terrifying power contained in this powerful magic circle, it is also a space of its own that can isolate the connection between the inside and the outside!

David stood in the center of the magic circle and said calmly, "You underestimated me. Now, it's time for you to pay the price."

As soon as he finished speaking, the power of the elemental array swept towards the stall owner and law enforcer like a tsunami.

They tried to resist, but their strength was insignificant in front of the elemental magic circle.

The stall owner's spell was easily broken, and the law enforcer's defense collapsed in an instant.

The two were suppressed by the power of the elemental array and could not move, their faces filled with shock and despair.

David didn't give them any chance to breathe. He controlled the elemental magic circle and continued to intensify the offensive.

The bodies of the stall owner and the law enforcer began to tremble, and their strength was taken away bit by bit, until finally, they both collapsed to the ground powerlessly, their eyes full of fear and pleading for mercy.

But David intended to end the battle quickly and did not give the two men any chance. Relying on the powerful force of water element, he directly crushed their heads!

Then, his Space Soul swept across and directly took the two people into the space inside the Space Soul. His figure jumped directly into the sea and sank into it.

Not long after, the law enforcers from the Lone Whale Market arrived in a hurry. Feeling the remaining magic array and elemental power around them, they all looked at each other in bewilderment.

……

Deep in the sea.

David left quickly with the three dark wizards.

It was not until they were a long distance away that David took the two men ashore.

This place is very far away from Lone Whale Island, and with the sea blocking the smell, David is confident that no one can catch up here.

However, David didn't know whether the stall owner and the law enforcer had tracking marks on them, so he still didn't release the bodies of the two.

"You three will collect resources in the nearby waters from now on. I need to go somewhere now." David sent the three dark wizards away.

"Yes, master." The three dark wizards responded respectfully.

David nodded, then dived into the sea again, transformed into a water python again, and swam towards the uninhabited island connected to the Bright Continent.

After arriving at the uninhabited island, he directly activated the soul of space and returned to the continent of light.

"Your Excellency the Duke." Lily came forward.

David nodded and said with a smile: "Let's go back first."

"it is good."

Lily smiled sweetly.

This made David's heart flutter.

"Let's go." David stood up.

"Yeah." Lily nodded.

The two of them snuggled back to the wizard castle.

The witches in the wizard castle immediately rushed forward to meet them.

Seeing that the Duke was fine, the witches all breathed a sigh of relief.

After David returned, he naturally had some warm time with his wives.

That night.

Murmurs could be heard from time to time in the castle.

The next day, he entered the elemental barrier alone and took out the bodies of the stall owner and the law enforcer.

Now we are in two worlds.

Even if the stall owner and the law enforcer have any spiritual imprints on them, don't even think about sensing them.

But even so, he still didn't dare to be careless.

Who knows if these wizards have left any hidden tricks on them.

He did not get close, but directly used his extraordinary perception to sense it.

There is an exquisite badge around the law enforcer's waist, which is a symbol of the law enforcer's identity and also an alchemical item.

During the battle, the Law Enforcer released a defensive spell from it, which resisted his Four Elements Formation for a while, which shows how strong its defense is.

This badge will definitely fetch a good price on the black market.

Of course, David would not take the risk and planned to leave the badge to his wife.

David then checked the enforcer's storage bag, which was filled with various magical materials and potions, and even a few precious spell books.

David opened the spell book and looked.

Most of them are cantrip-level spells.

But in the end, David saw a first-level spell model called Water Dragon Wall.

"A first-level spell model!" David's eyes lit up.

After a ninth-level wizard completes the crystallization of his mental power, he can condense a spell model in the spiritual world.

Relying on the spell model, the wizard's mental power can complete the final transformation.

The spell model will also become the wizard's fixed spell. In addition to being able to be cast instantly, its power will far exceed that of ordinary wizards!
David felt that he could study this water dragon wall himself.

In addition, the water-attribute spells here also greatly enhance the water lotus.

After inspecting the lawman's belongings, David turned to the stall owner's body.

In addition to being a seventh-level wizard, the stall owner is also a magic material merchant.

This means that the stall owner may be hiding more valuable magical items and knowledge.

No matter what, as long as the stall owner brings the previous potion formulas, it will be a huge gain for him.

David immediately began to search the stall owner's body more carefully. The stall owner did not have the same storage bag as the law enforcer.

But he noticed that the stall owner was wearing an inconspicuous ring on his finger.

The ring looked ordinary on the surface, but David keenly felt that it emitted a faint spatial fluctuation.

He carefully took off the ring and could already tell that it was a storage ring with a small space hidden inside.

"Space ring!"

David felt the spatial fluctuations contained in it and his eyes lit up.

Although there are many resources containing space capabilities in the Bright Continent, the method of making space rings has long been lost.

He didn't expect to see a space ring here.

Taking a deep breath, he urged his space soul to sink into the space ring.

The space ring is already a magical weapon, which contains the mark of the original owner.

Moreover, these space rings can only be opened using specific methods, and ordinary people cannot use them even if they get them.

But in front of David's Space Soul, there is no need to follow the normal process.

The soul of space easily entered the internal space of the space ring.

Then he discovered that there was a huge storage room in the space ring.

There are all kinds of rare magic materials, high-level spell scrolls, witchcraft weapons and magic books.

In addition, there are a pile of magic crystals.

Obviously, with the space ring, the stall owner simply carried all his assets on his body, which actually benefited David.

David began to use the power of the space soul to take out the things in the space ring one by one.

He quickly found the potion formulas that the stall owner had collected, and couldn't help but feel delighted.

Then, he took out a magical weapon that looked like a magic cloak.

There is also an instruction manual placed next to the magic cloak.

This cloak not only provides additional defense, but also conceals the wearer's breath. It is definitely the equipment that wizards dream of.

Finally, David also found a tattered diary.

The cover of the diary was badly worn, and it was obvious that the stall owner had read it frequently.

David opened the diary and found that it contained the stall owner's transaction records, customer lists, and some mysterious transaction information.

He couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

This stall owner sells both black and white goods, and he seems to be more complicated than he seems.

However, this book also revealed to him the tip of the iceberg of the underground world of dark wizards.

“The harvest this time is huge.”

"Sure enough, it's still the case that the thieves rob the thieves, and the money comes the fastest."

David sorted out all these resources and then breathed a sigh of relief.

After making sure that there was nothing special in it, he put all the resources into the space ring.

Then he took a look at the strength of the two seventh-level wizards.

This is also a very good wizard material. He plans to give it to the Death Demon Tree and refine it into undead.

In addition, there are the souls of those dark wizards.

Now he has handed over the Death Demon Tree to the undead wizard Rena, and he believes that Rena's strength can be greatly improved with this.

David sorted out the harvest and then handed most of the resources to Leah, the castle's housekeeper.

The resources related to medicine were naturally given to Ye Zi.

"Thank you, Your Excellency the Duke." Ye Zi was a little excited.

With so many medicine formulas and materials, her pharmacist skills can be greatly improved.

"This is what you deserve."

David stroked Ye Zi's soft hair and said, "If I really want to thank you..."

Ye Zi understood what he said, her face turned red instantly, but she nodded very seriously.

Wait a minute, let His Excellency the Duke do whatever he wants.

David took Ye Zi into the pharmacy and began to sort out the medicine formulas and materials.

What he values ​​most here is naturally the blue potion that can concentrate the mind.

The effect of this potion is of great help to him now.

"I will definitely prepare the blue potion that can concentrate the mind." Ye Zi's face was very serious.

In the next period of time.

The leaves are all in the pharmacy room for the preparation of medicine.

David began to deal with some things happening on the Continent of Light.

Now is not the time for the demonic tide to fully erupt, and the Bright Continent is still in superficial peace.

David was happy to see this situation.

Now he can travel back and forth between the wizarding world, thereby continuously improving his strength by utilizing resources from both worlds.

Not long after, Ye Zi refined the blue potion that could concentrate the mind.

David began to use the blue concentration potion to strengthen his gaseous mental power.

Now his mental power has reached the late stage of gaseous mental power. I believe it won’t take long to reach its peak.

He can continue to use the blue potion to help liquefy his mental power.

Next is a peaceful time for practice.

In the blink of an eye, several months passed.

The witches' strength is steadily increasing through the resources he brought back.

After continuous practice and system feedback, the strength of his wives has gradually approached the peak of the fifth level.

In addition, Sophia's strength is approaching the fifth level.

Sophia's talent for energy transformation is crucial to David's subsequent completion of the liquefaction of his mental power.

Therefore, David invested a lot of resources in Sofia.

In addition, Sophia, who looks petite, is the most active when it comes to dual cultivation.

With all these factors added up, Sophia's strength increased very quickly.

Finally, when David had almost exhausted all the resources from the stall owners and law enforcers, Sophia's strength successfully broke through to the fifth level.

Another month has passed.

David has been working hard to practice with the ladies.

At the same time, his mental power reached the peak of the seventh level with the help of the blue concentration potion.

He felt that his spiritual world was gradually expanding and undergoing subtle changes.

David's energy transformation talent has successfully reached the breakthrough requirements through continuous dual cultivation with Sophia!

In the spiritual world, the energy-shaped heart began to emit dazzling light.

Under his guidance, the energy-shaped heart began to rotate slowly. Every rotation drove the surrounding spiritual power, making them more condensed.
