Wizard Earl

Chapter 419 Three Things

From old Victor, Connor obtained three items: Seven-Colored Glazed Gold, the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique, and the Ghost Stone. The Seven-Colored Glazed Gold and the Ghost Stone were materials for crafting enchanted items, while the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique, as its name suggests, was a form of witchcraft that enhanced the body. The crystal ball Connor was currently holding contained the training method for the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique. To facilitate preservation and recording, advanced witchcraft like the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique was generally not recorded in books or paper, but rather in crystal balls.

The booklet that old Victor gave him contained a series of things, including potions, alchemical materials, and witchcraft manuals, but Connor had his own reasons for choosing these three items.

First of all, Seven-Colored Glazed Gold is an extremely rare metal material that has a magical effect in refining many kinds of enchanted items. Connor spent 500 magic stones to get 100 grams at the Mönchengladbach Club before. Now that there are 300 grams of Seven-Colored Glazed Gold in Old Victor's book, Connor will definitely not let it go!

Ghost Stone is also a material that Connor is very interested in. With it, along with several other alchemical materials, Connor might be able to enhance the power of the Silver Pendant in his hand. It's not impossible that the Silver Pendant could become a top-tier second-order enchanted item like the Castia Staff!

Initially, out of fear of the Secret Society and Old Victor, Connor originally planned to choose alchemical materials for all three items. Now, however, he is not entirely at ease with the potions and cultivation techniques he obtained from the Secret Society, fearing that Old Victor might use some underhanded tactics against him. Connor still has some confidence in choosing alchemical materials.

However, after carefully reading through the booklet that old Victor had given him, Connor seriously considered it and changed his mind, abandoning another material he liked and replacing it with this Kasyapa Demon Body Technique.

Connor did this because he noticed a seemingly insignificant detail in the booklet that old Victor had given him. However, the detail, though seemingly trivial, was chilling upon closer examination.

Old Victor was quite generous; the twenty-eight items listed in the booklet were all of considerable value. He didn't try to fool Connor with any junk. However, while all the items were of good value, there were always a few that were more valuable or more suitable for Connor...

After careful consideration, Connor discovered that there were four such items: Seven-Colored Glazed Gold, Galvo's Spirit Gathering Potion, the Violet Demon Flame Secret Technique, and the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique, which Connor ultimately chose. Apart from the Seven-Colored Glazed Gold, all four items were either potions or cultivation techniques.

Galvo's Spirit Gathering Potion is a potion that enhances the quality of mental power, making it very suitable for mental wizards like Connor. As for the Violet Demon Flame Secret Technique, Connor considers it the most valuable of the twenty-eight items listed in the booklet. After mastering it, one can unleash a strange flame called the Violet Demon Flame. According to the booklet, this flame is extremely wondrous. Once mastered, it is virtually unbeatable among wizards below the level of a formal wizard. Even after breaking through to become a formal wizard, this spell can still be cultivated. However, while the spell's power is incomparably strong, the cultivation process is proportional to its power, making it just as difficult.

As for the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique that Connor ultimately chose, it is the second most valuable item among the twenty-eight items. After practicing the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique to a certain level, the practitioner's physical body will transform into a Kasyapa Demon Body. According to the booklet, after transforming into a Kasyapa Demon Body, the strength of the wizard's physical body will be greatly increased, even comparable to the strength of a demonized item. Not only that, wizards who cultivate dark energy with a Kasyapa Demon Body will have a certain amplification in absorbing dark energy in the space. Moreover, the most attractive aspect of the Kasyapa Demon Body is that, although the process of cultivating the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique is difficult, it is not impossible.

Moreover, for a mental wizard like Connor, whose mental strength is formidable but whose physical strength is relatively average, the need to improve physical strength is extremely urgent. After all, no matter how strong your mental strength is, you still need a physical body as the carrier of your mental strength before you reach that level. A weak physical body will limit the development of your mental strength. When he was still an intermediate wizard apprentice, Connor practiced the Knight Breathing Technique passed down by the Ferguson family since childhood, and the physical qualities he gained were close to those of a Grand Knight, which was sufficient. However, now that he has broken through to become an advanced wizard apprentice, Connor has found that his physical qualities are increasingly unable to keep up with the development of his mental strength.

Therefore, in the face of this situation, strengthening the physical body is a problem that Connor must solve. The Kasyapa Demon Body Technique will provide Connor with a very good solution. However, although Connor wants the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique, it is highly likely that Connor will not practice the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique!

Why is that? After working hard for a month to complete the alchemy task assigned by the secret society, he earned three opportunities. Why would Connor waste one of them in this way?

Connor did this because he was wary of the secret society. He didn't believe that the existence of things like the Seven-Colored Glazed Gold, Galvo's Spirit Gathering Potion, the Violet Demon Flame Secret Technique, and Kasyapa Demon Body Technique, which were far more valuable than he needed, was a coincidence!

Old Victor wasn't a fool; he was a very shrewd and cunning old man. According to normal thinking, Connor would use all three of the slots he gave him on the aforementioned four items: Seven-Colored Glazed Gold, Galvo's Spirit Gathering Potion, Violet Demon Flame Secret Technique, and Kasyapa Demon Body Technique. Of these four, only Seven-Colored Glazed Gold was a refining material that Connor could confirm was safe and problem-free. As for the other three, due to the limitations of his knowledge, Connor had no way of knowing, or found it difficult to determine, whether there were any problems.

So, in other words, if old Victor and the secret society he represents wanted to do something to Connor, this would undoubtedly be a very good opportunity! Connor even suspected that the appearance of the seven-colored glazed gold among these four items was just a decoy to lull him into a false sense of security.

"Beep! The auxiliary chip's analysis of the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique, combined with the database, is complete. Nine-seven percent of the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique is without problems. However, the chip analysis indicates that once the Kasyapa Demon Body Technique is mastered, it will generate an unknown energy within the cultivator's body—the chip's current analysis function is still undetermined!"
