The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 230 Picking up the leaks
"I'll just take a look first."

David began to pick up other items and examine them.

He slowly picked up the small wooden box and opened it.

Several ancient scrolls, small stones shining with mysterious light, and a yellowed booklet came into view.

Although they looked simple in appearance, he could clearly feel a certain powerful aura emanating from these items, especially the unique aura of a bloodline wizard, which shocked him.

"This... this is the inheritance item of the bloodline wizard!" David said in his heart.

He could feel that those scrolls and materials contained immeasurable power, as if they were quietly calling him.

"What are you looking at?" the stall owner seemed to notice the change in his expression and asked.

"These things... they are really special." David suppressed his inner excitement and replied calmly, "I'm just curious."

The stall owner shook his head and smiled bitterly, "These are left by my grandmother. I don't really understand them, I just know they are very old."

However, David knew that these things were anything but ordinary.

He examined the scrolls carefully. They were covered with intricate and exquisite runes, completely different from any magical scrolls he knew.

He could feel that these runes contained unique and powerful magic, intertwined with information related to bloodline wizards.

"You said they were inherited items, but you yourself know nothing about them?" David asked casually, "That doesn't make sense."

The stall owner shrugged. "To me, they are just some old things. I don't have time to study them. They just take up space. If someone is willing to buy them, I will be happy."

At this moment, David was secretly glad that he had found a bargain.

The contents of this small wooden box will not only provide great help to his cultivation, but may also become an important key to unlocking higher-level powers.

And the stall owner had no idea of ​​its true value, which made his haul even more exciting.

David's eyes flickered as he weighed the value of the small wooden box and its contents in his mind.

He knew that these ancient scrolls and mysterious little stones were by no means ordinary items, especially the unique aura of bloodline wizards contained in them, which made him feel an indescribable attraction.

"How much can I give you?" David finally couldn't help asking, lowering his voice so as not to attract the attention of other customers.

The stall owner thought for a moment and replied, "I'm really not sure about these things, but if you are willing to pay one thousand magic crystals, I will sell them to you."

David pretended to show hesitation on his face. He knew this was definitely a cheap deal, but he didn't want to appear too eager.

After careful consideration, he decided to continue testing the stall owner: "Can you give me a little less?"

"After all, we don't know the purpose of these things, and I just want to study them because I am a wizard scholar."

The stall owner was a little embarrassed, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Okay, I can give in, eight hundred magic crystals."

"Eight hundred, all right then!"

David thought about it and didn't bargain anymore. He slowly took out a pile of magic crystals from his bag and handed them to the stall owner.

And I secretly congratulated myself for having found a bargain.

"Are there any other items?" he asked, glancing around, looking excitedly for any more bargains.

Just then, he noticed several booklets with worn covers and yellowed edges placed in a corner.

Out of curiosity, he walked over and took a look, and found that it contained some information about ancient spells and rituals.

This is still of great research value to Sura, who has the talent of sacrifice.

"How much are these booklets?" David asked the stall owner.

The stall owner hesitated for a moment, then said, "These are just some old books. I don't know much about them. I think each one costs about 300 magic crystals."

"Can you sell them as a package? If I buy all the booklets at the same time, you can give me a discount." David tried to lower the price.

"Well, if you buy all at once, I'll give you a discount, 250 magic crystals per copy."

The stall owner took several books off the shelf and put them together. "In this case, the total is 800 magic crystals."

After a simple calculation, the total cost of buying the small wooden box and all the booklets was only one thousand six hundred magic crystals.

David paid the money without hesitation and took the small wooden box and those precious booklets.

After taking the package, David nodded and hurried away from the market.

He couldn't wait to return to his place of cultivation so that he could study more deeply the mysteries and value of this inherited relic.

"Huh? Someone is following me?" David suddenly had an idea.

Afterwards, he went straight to a nearby woods and activated the space mark. His figure immediately disappeared from the spot, leaving the followers who came later bewildered, wondering how they had lost him.
David was teleported directly back to the Misty Forest.

Soon, he returned to his residence in the Elf Palace, and then he quickly opened the small wooden box and carefully observed each item again.

After careful examination, the runes on those ancient scrolls gradually became clearer. He even found that some of the spells were very similar to the blood wizard inheritance he had obtained before. There must be some connection between the two.

And those small stones seem to be important materials for enhancing the effect of spells, helping to improve the power and stability of spells, and contain blood energy.

After careful comparison and deciphering, what excited him most was that the yellowed booklet recorded some methods and techniques on the use of blood power, and some of the rituals mentioned therein also aroused his great interest.

This not only means that there is hope for strengthening existing abilities, but also the possibility of activating the power hidden in the blood and enhancing the strength of the bloodline wizard!

This will be of great help to him who already possesses the blood of a four-ring elf, and may even allow him to possess the combat power of a four-ring earlier!

Of course, this is a boring process.

Fortunately, he has a group of ladies to accompany him, so he can relax from time to time.

Afterwards, he also took out those resources for his wives to practice, but unfortunately he did not collect any resources that were useful to him.

As expected, if one wants to continue to improve his strength, relying on the resources of the alien continent is far from enough, and he still needs to return to the Wizarding Union.

At this point, David could finally leave with peace of mind.

All his goals in coming to the alien continent have been perfectly accomplished. Except for the all-powerful Elf Queen whom he was really reluctant to leave, he no longer had any goals.

Moreover, the improvement of his elven bloodline had encountered a bottleneck, and it was difficult to improve his mental strength. It was indeed time for him to leave.

After helping the Misty Forest strengthen its barrier, David proposed the idea of ​​leaving to the Elf Queen, who was naturally reluctant to let him go.

But she also knew that there was no way to keep David in the alien continent, so she did not try to keep him. It was just that the Elf Queen was particularly passionate and crazy that night.

A few days later, David embarked on his return journey. David's method of returning was very simple.

He had already left coordinates along the way using space marks.

Using the space imprint's space teleportation, he quickly returned to the Mink Tribe.

After explaining the cultivation matters to these fur tribes, he was teleported to the south coast.

Afterwards, he continued to teleport continuously. If he was only in the wizard world, the space mark could support him to teleport ten times. After the space energy contained in the space mark was exhausted, he practiced quietly to recover, and then started the space teleportation again.

David felt the passage of time during the space teleportation, and the scenery around him kept flickering and changing.

Every time he teleported, he could briefly escape from the oppressive atmosphere of the alien continent, and the uneasiness in his heart was alleviated.

He knew that he had to return to the Wizarding Union as soon as possible, which was the best place for him to continue training and improve his strength.

It only took him a few days to cross the whirlpool and the deep sea and return to the Blue Island.

A familiar and mysterious atmosphere filled him, making him feel particularly at home.

Everything on the island remains the same, the towering wizard tower, the lush magical plants, and the wizard apprentices.

This time, his journey to the alien continent took him almost a year.

This was nothing for a wizard, but he was fully upgraded from a first-ring wizard to a second-ring wizard.

The next step is naturally to start collecting resources.

During the time he was away, the forces under his control had been continuously collecting various resources.

He even collected some resources with Misa from the Cape Tower.

Unfortunately, whether it is Misa, the Lone Whale Market, or those dark wizards, their strength is too weak and they are unable to collect powerful resources.

However, with these resources, the witches' strength will be improved even faster, and they can reach the first level even without any adventure.

To be honest, the talents of these witches are so terrifying that as long as there are enough resources, there will be no bottleneck in improving their strength.

In this way, time passed little by little.

During this period of time, David finally deciphered the blood wizard inheritance that he had accidentally obtained, which further enhanced his blood wizard combat power.

But during this period, big things happened in the wizarding world again.

The wizarding world has discovered a secret realm full of resources and plans to embark on another wizarding expedition.

This new world was called the Ice Realm.

Rumor has it that there are not only rare magic minerals here, but also unknown magical creatures and ancient ruins, which has aroused great interest among many wizards.

The Wizarding Union quickly convened an emergency meeting, and many elders, scholars, and young wizards gathered together to discuss the expedition plan.

After intense discussions, the Alliance decided to form a large expedition team consisting of powerful high-level wizards and experienced warriors.

The team not only has to explore the ice realm, but also needs to ensure safety throughout the entire operation to prevent sudden threats.

In order to prepare for this expedition, various factions of the six major alliance organizations are actively preparing.

They began to create special equipment to cope with extreme weather and developed new spells against unknown creatures.

At the same time, many actual combat drills were carried out to ensure that every member could deal with various situations proficiently.

David was also stunned when he got the news.

During this period of time, he was planning to help Amy improve her strength to the level of a first-ring wizard.

If Amy could enter the Ice Realm, there would be hope that she could quickly improve her strength to the level of a first-ring wizard, or even a second or third-ring wizard.

However, this kind of exploration is also the most dangerous, especially for combat wizards. The casualties are very heavy each time, especially for first and second ring wizards.

David was still hesitating whether to go exploring.

But at this moment, Lena, who stayed in the extreme north of the Bright Continent, sent news that there were unusual movements in the Ice Hell, so David planned to return to the Bright Continent first.

He brought the witches back to the teleportation island and then came to the Continent of Light.

He first returned to the wizard castle and released the witches from the elemental wizard tower, and then he immediately headed to the far north.

"Your Majesty the Duke."

Lena seemed very excited to see David again.

David smiled and hugged Rena in his arms, and found that Rena's strength had reached the level of a first-ring wizard.

This made his eyes narrow slightly.

As the magic power of the Bright Continent began to revive, the suppression of the Bright Continent was also gradually weakening.

This also means that even in the Bright Continent, witches can improve their strength to the first-ring wizard level.

Moreover, the magic power contained in the Continent of Light is still increasing in strength, and it is already able to catch up with some magic-poor areas in the wizarding world.

But as the magic power of the Bright Continent continues to revive, passages to many worlds are also opening.

At the entrance to this icy hell in the far north, the originally sealed passage reappeared and was constantly growing larger.

It is obvious that the Ice Hell will lead to another invasion of the Bright Continent.

Moreover, there may be even more powerful demons who can enter the Continent of Light this time.

"An invasion from the Frozen Hell?"

David's face was very serious.

"and many more."

"Could the ice world that appeared in the wizarding world also be related to the ice hell?"

David suddenly thought of something and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

To a certain extent, the Continent of Light is a subspace world in the wizarding world.

The Ice Hell invaded the Bright Continent, perhaps intending to use the Bright Continent as a springboard, and the Ice World might also be this springboard!

"Your Excellency the Duke, what happened?" Lena asked.

David repeated his guess. If this was the case, the wizarding world might really have to go to war with the Ice Hell in the future.

I just don’t know what the true strength of the Ice Hell is, and whether the current wizarding world can withstand it.

This is not good news for him who is still in the developmental stage, and the Bright Continent is also about to face the threat of the Ice Hell.

After confirming the situation in the Ice Hell, David reinforced the seal again, took Lena back to the Wizard Castle, and then immediately returned to the Wizarding World.

Since we have already guessed that both the wizarding world and the bright continent may become chaotic in the future.

As long as a real war breaks out, these resources will absolutely skyrocket to a terrifying level in an instant.

Naturally, he would do everything possible to acquire resources!
