The Wizard: Starting as a Corpse Burial Man - An Infinite Side Hustle

"Is this Mr. Ansu?"

Ansu turned her head toward the source of the sound.

Then they saw the source of the sound.

The alchemical pigments he mixed were second only to those of another body buryer.

"My name is Testu."

He was the mortician of another of Lord Sandru's alchemy workshops.

Without much formality, Testu stated his purpose directly:

Are you interested in selling alchemy materials or alchemy pigments?

I have channels for selling them.

In addition, they can also introduce you to another extraordinary organization.

Thus, it will help you obtain a bone ring like mine...

"Not interested."

Before Testu could finish speaking, Ansu declined the invitation.

After all, Ansu didn't even know the other person's name before this.

If it were a gravedigger, that would be fine.

After all, there is no competition between the burial man and the gravedigger.

But it's different between people who bury corpses.

Moreover, Ansu and the other party were from the same alchemy workshop and were competitors.

Before this, Ansu had heard stories of burial men targeting and killing each other in order to sell each other's souls to the gravediggers.

So after suggesting that the other party could find other burial workers, he left the alchemy workshop without looking back, leaving only Testu alone.

"As expected, they didn't fall for it."

Tistu muttered to himself.

Then he stared in the direction Ansu had left, without saying a word.

I don't know what she's thinking.

...

after a while.

Ansu returned to the dwelling of the people who buried the bodies.

During this time, he also looked through the small box provided by Sandru.

This allowed them to explore the various resources and alchemical tools stored within.

Besides.

He also casually flipped through the books, which were also stored in the box and contained extraordinary knowledge related to alchemical pigments.

This confirmed that the formula contained alchemical pigments associated with healing.

The difficulty level is not high.

It's only slightly more complex than the previously created [Alchemy Pigment - Frost Blue].

However, once the proficiency level is increased, it can be crafted with some time.

Moreover, Gravekeeper Ryan had previously stated that the other party would also provide corresponding resources.

Upon returning to the area inhabited by the gravediggers and the tomb guardians, Anzu immediately went to find the tomb guardian, Ryan.

He then explained his purpose for visiting the other party.

"There really is such a pigment?"

Hearing Ansu's words, Ryan's tone became more excited.

Prior to this, Ryan was unsure about it.

I've only heard that wizards possess abilities that are practically omnipotent.

Therefore, it was only a few days ago that Ryan tentatively mentioned this deal to Ansu.

Furthermore, even if healing alchemical materials do exist, there are no plans to obtain them in the short term.

Unexpectedly, only about three days had passed since the previous transaction.

Ansu then brought back information about the healing alchemical pigment.

"If it is a gold-plating pigment."

After I get injured, I can heal myself just like a normal living person.

Ryan thought to himself, and then carefully noted down the names of the materials provided by Ansu.

After informing the Gravekeeper Knight Ryan of the relevant materials, Anzu took out two bandages.

It was during the process of unlocking the [Profession - Burial Man] that this happened.

Ansu created the "Zombie Inhibition Bandage" using alchemical pigments and ordinary bandages.

"Mr. Ansu, this is..."

Ryan didn't understand why Ansu wanted to take this thing out.

While Ryan was still puzzled, Ansu continued:

"If there are merchants on the black market who buy these, they can be sold."

While I'm at it, I'll also collect some mutated magical plants that were once experimental subjects of wizards, as well as materials from mutated magical creatures.

Perhaps I can use these materials to modify the formula of alchemical pigments, thereby enhancing the effects of healing alchemical pigments.

Ansu knew that her current strength was not enough.

Even including the paintbrush I recently obtained from Sandru, I cannot guarantee 100% that I can defeat a gravedigger knight without getting injured.

Not to mention that in the black market, there are extraordinary professions that are stronger than the Gravekeeper Knights and even more adept at ambushes.

Therefore.

Ansu planned to have Ryan, the Gravekeeper Knight, collect some extraordinary resources for him.

Once he has applied it to the formula for creating alchemical pigments, thereby enhancing his mystical attributes and various abilities, he will then personally go to the black market.

They used this to purchase various supplies.

"it is good."

The Gravekeeper, Ryan, nodded solemnly.

He then accepted the two [Zombification Suppression Bandages] provided by Anzu, and then went to the black market with several other Gravekeeper Knights.

Ansu also returned to her residence.

With the help of the various resources and tools provided by Sandru, he improved his proficiency in two areas of knowledge related to the profession of "Alchemist".

At the same time, every now and then, he would go to the Rose Cemetery again, just like an ordinary burial person.

Incidentally, you can also gain some free attribute points by burying corpses.

Besides.

Anzu can also utilize the aura of the dead within the cemetery, as well as the "Death Breathing Technique" he previously obtained from the Gravekeeper Knight Ryan, which can be used to absorb the aura of the dead.

This will also provide an additional boost to one's physical strength.

At this moment, a day has passed since the Gravekeeper Knight Ryan first went to the black market and returned.

"We haven't been able to collect all the materials for the healing alchemical pigments yet."

Ryan said:

"The resources sold by various vendors in the black market are not fixed."

It may take a few more days to collect all the materials needed to formulate the healing alchemical pigments.

However, there are quite a few people who are interested in the bandages that can remove the pollution of the aura of the dead.

I found a few that offered high prices.

In exchange, they received some extraordinary materials derived from mutated magical creatures and plants.

As Ryan spoke, he took out the supplies he had purchased from the black market.

A mushroom that grows on deer antlers and is shaped like a human head.

The scales shed by a snake with two tails.

Even among the materials Ryan collected was slime skin containing traces of dragon blood...

The number of materials of a single type is not large.

But there are quite a few varieties.

If you count them all, there are more than ten kinds.

Moreover, these things are generally useful to Ansu.

After all, by this point, his talent in mysticism had already reached 3 points.

All abilities related to mysticism will be further enhanced as a result.

This naturally includes the ability to perceive resources.

While examining various materials, Ansu could vaguely sense the role these materials would play in alchemical pigments.

Based on this, some new alchemical pigment formulas were then developed.

During this period, Ansu would occasionally use paints and brushes to create paintings on the ether.

This improves proficiency in [Knowledge-Virtual Painting].

As you continuously create and test the effects of new paints, your proficiency in this area will increase.

Until you reach Lv.1.

In an instant, even more characters appeared on the panel:
