Wizard Earl

Chapter 240 New Spells

Connor gave Margaret a deep look. He once again realized the benefits of having a collaborator like Margaret. No wonder the arbitrators of the Church of Storms and the wizards of the Metropolitan Police Department had mobilized almost their entire force to search for him. It turned out that Baron Sari had such a brother behind him.

Thinking of this, Connor couldn't help but look at Margaret awkwardly. When he found the gold bars in Scarface's spatial ring, although he realized that the source of these gold bars might not be very good, he really didn't expect that such a batch of gold bars would be such a hot potato.

Margaret held onto the gold bars, certain that she would never sell them; otherwise, if word got out, she would likely face the questioning and wrath of a second-level wizard!

Margaret glared at Connor, then said nothing more. She simply put her spatial ring into her pocket, took out some materials from her own spatial ring, and handed them to Connor, saying, "I've got all the materials you wanted to repair your staff, except for the dark meteorite! I'll look for the remaining dark meteorite. You can also check the auctions at the Mönchengladbach Club or the Meazza Manor for any clues!"

Listening to Margaret's explanation, a look of joy immediately appeared on Connor's face. He really didn't expect Margaret to be so helpful, finding all the materials except for the dark meteorite. The damage to the Castia Staff was now a major worry for Connor. Without the Castia Staff, his current strength could only be described as that of a relatively strong intermediate wizard apprentice, no longer possessing the strength to challenge an advanced wizard apprentice like he did when facing Scarface!

While dark meteorites aren't particularly precious, they are quite rare, and few crafted items require them. It's perfectly normal that Margaret couldn't find any in a month!

"Thank you!" Connor said earnestly to Margaret as he took the materials she handed him. This thank you was truly heartfelt. Without Margaret, Connor would have to go to the Mönchengladbach Club and the Meazza Manor one by one to find the materials to repair the Castilian Staff. Putting aside the trouble it would be, the risk would be very high, and it would be very easy for someone with ulterior motives to notice.

Connor's thanks brought a smile to Margaret's pretty face. After a moment's thought, she changed the subject, saying, "I'm already working on the materials to make the alchemical golem, but it will probably take another half a month to get them. In half a month, go to the Imperial Department Store and find Leonie. Leonie will tell you where the materials are!"

Listening to Margaret's words, Connor's expression remained unchanged on the surface, but he was calculating in his mind. In all the time he had been working with Margaret, she had never delayed in finding alchemical materials; this was the first time she had postponed it.

Although he had some doubts, Connor quickly realized that while the materials he needed for alchemy golems weren't particularly precious, each golem required a lot of materials. He had originally planned to make ten golems just to be on the safe side and prevent damage during the process, but he wanted the materials for fifteen at once. Even if Margaret was incredibly resourceful, it would still take time to gather such a large amount of materials. Half a month shouldn't be a big problem!

Connor nodded to Margaret, indicating that he was alright. Upon seeing this, Margaret smiled and, just as quietly as she had come, quietly left Connor's apartment.

After sitting on the sofa and pondering for a while, Connor looked down at the materials that Margaret had given him to repair the Castilian Staff.

The Dark Meteorite is mainly used in the Castia Staff to construct the magic circle and condense the Black Knight. Without this material, the Castia Magic Circle and the Black Knight in the magic circle, which were severely damaged by the zombie self-destruction during Scarface's fierce battle, could not be reconstituted. However, the absence of this material does not affect the repair of the Castia Staff's defensive barrier!

Without hesitation, Connor took the materials and headed to his alchemy lab on the second floor of his apartment. His only defensive enchanted item was his black magic robe, which made the usually cautious Connor a little worried.

The next morning, a somewhat tired Connor looked at the defensive barrier protecting him and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. His hard work throughout the night had finally paid off. He had finally completed the repair of the defensive barrier of the Castia Staff. The next step was to obtain the Dark Meteorite so that he could repair the Castia Magic Circle and re-condense the Black Knight. In that case, the Castia Staff would be completely repaired.

After leaving his apartment, Connor enjoyed a delicious breakfast at a restaurant outside the street and also bought a copy of yesterday's Rune Evening Post. If he had to choose between the Mönchengladbach Club and Meazza Manor, Connor felt he would choose the Mönchengladbach Club, even though Meazza Manor offered more. But for some reason, Connor's intuition told him that Meazza Manor was dangerous. Intuition is a very unreliable thing, but a wizard's intuition is often very accurate, so Connor chose to trust his intuition and avoid Meazza Manor as much as possible unless absolutely necessary.

After some calculations, Connor threw the newspaper into the trash can. If he wasn't mistaken, the opening ceremony of the Mönchengladbach Club this month would be held in three days.

Back in his apartment, Connor activated the concealment array within. Once activated, no matter what noises were made inside the apartment, no one outside would notice.

Sitting in the quiet room, Connor began to meditate seriously. The two fierce battles with Scarface made Connor realize a truth: although he was an alchemist, his primary identity was that of a wizard. No matter how powerful the enchanted items were, they were still external things. He could not tolerate becoming mediocre without the enchanted items!

Concentrating on the arcane arts of the Abyss and seeking power from his meditation, Connor, though previously engrossed in alchemy without reducing his training time, intends to shift his focus from alchemy to cultivation. The spell of necromancy is the answer Connor seeks from the arcane arts of the Abyss.

Undead Coil is a dark magic spell recorded in the Abyss Arcane Arts. It is considered an extremely evil spell, requiring the caster to personally kill someone, then imprison the victim's soul, and through arcane magic, transform it into a mindless undead controlled by the caster, one that only knows killing and destruction.
