Wizard Earl

Chapter 428 Strengthening the Physical Body

"Mixed toxins? Mixed?" Upon hearing this word, Connor seemed to have an idea, and his eyes lit up instantly.

"Margaret, I'll ask you one more time, are you sure that neither Odin's Blood Pool nor Jesus's Incense will cause any problems when used alone?" To confirm his suspicions, Connor asked Margaret again:

"No! I've had no problems using either of them individually!" Margaret said with absolute certainty. Seeing Connor's expression, Margaret frowned slightly and asked Connor, "Connor, are you thinking about something?"

Nodding slightly, Connor held up the Demon-Gathering Charm and Jesus Oil, saying, "You released Jesus Incense in Odin's Blood Pool, and that's how you got poisoned, right? So you now suspect that the cause of your poisoning is the Jesus Incense, right?"

When Connor asked her to confirm what she had just said, Margaret nodded with a puzzled look.

"My thinking is this: neither Jesus Incense nor Odin's Blood Pool, individually, would cause you to be poisoned! The real reason you were poisoned by that mental toxin mixture is because you released Jesus Incense in Odin's Blood Pool!" Without any pretense, Connor directly explained his thoughts to Margaret.

"Connor, I understand what you mean!" Connor's words brought a glint of light to Margaret's eyes, as if opening a new door for her and making her understand many things all at once.

"This is just my guess. You'd better do an experiment and check it out yourself to see what the actual situation is!" Seeing Margaret's reaction, Connor naturally understood that the matter of the Odin Blood Pool was definitely not as simple as Margaret said. The water inside was definitely very deep!

"I understand! Connor, go and receive the baptism of Odin's Blood Pool now. I need to recuperate for a while in my current state..." Margaret smiled slightly at Connor. The potion she had just drunk was finally starting to take effect, and her aura was no longer as weak as when she had just woken up.

"Okay! Remember to call me if anything happens!" Connor nodded in agreement and didn't stand on ceremony with Margaret. He turned and walked into the small room. He clearly remembered what Margaret had just said: the Odin Blood Pool in this small house could strengthen a wizard's physical strength by one to three times. Even if it was only one time, let alone three times, it could completely solve the problem that Connor was facing—the limitation of physical strength on the development of mental power!

Walking into the small room whose door he had smashed, and looking at the deep red blood pool inside, which was completely calm and still exuded the faint fragrance of magic potions, Connor did not rush in like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey. Instead, he took out a transparent crystal ball from his spatial ring. This crystal ball was an alchemical item that Connor had crafted to detect toxins. Without hesitation, he threw the crystal ball into the blood pool, and it immediately sank to the bottom.

Although according to Margaret's account and his own guess, there was nothing wrong with the Odin Blood Pool, as the saying goes, it's better to be safe than sorry. If he and Margaret were both wrong, it would be terrible. Connor still felt a little scared when he thought about the poison that Margaret had been poisoned with!

While the crystal ball was being used to examine Odin's blood pool, Connor carefully inspected the small house, looking for any details he might have missed, except for the location of the blood pool...

"Huh... what's this?" Upon closer inspection, Connor discovered some clues. On the wall of the small house facing the blood pool, there seemed to be a dent, and there were traces of energy erosion in the dent. It seemed that some kind of powerful demonic item had been placed in this dent, and judging from the traces, this demonic item was removed in the last few hours.

A half-smile appeared on Connor's lips, and he shrugged indifferently. Just as he had expected, Margaret had indeed kept some things from him. However, to be honest, Connor didn't care much about this. It was entirely within his expectations. He would have been surprised if Margaret had been completely open with her secrets!

Although Margaret didn't mention it at all, Connor clearly remembered that before she came, Margaret told him that she was here to get something that could greatly increase her strength. It seems that the enchanted item that was originally placed in this depression should be one of Margaret's goals for coming here!

Connor, who was observing the traces of energy erosion in the recessed area of ​​the wall, suddenly had a thought and turned his gaze back to the blood pool. At this moment, the crystal ball he had thrown into the blood pool was silently floating up.

Looking at the crystal ball, which was still as transparent as when he had just thrown it in, Connor smiled. If there were poison in the blood pool, the crystal ball would show different colors depending on the type of poison. The fact that the crystal ball was still as transparent as before completely proved that there was no problem with the blood pool!

With a slight tremor, the black-robed figure retrieved the crystal ball from the blood pool from Connor's hands and placed it back into his spatial ring. After doing all this, Connor removed his clothes and stepped into the blood pool.

"It's so hot!"

This was Connor's first impression upon entering the blood pool. He felt as if he were in a furnace, and he himself was like a piece of steel being forged in the furnace. The demonic blood in the blood pool seemed like flames, washing over Connor's body again and again, forcing out impurities from his physical body. In this environment, Connor was pleasantly surprised to find that the strength of his physical body was being strengthened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

An hour later, Connor reluctantly left the blood pool and took out a black robe from his spatial ring to put on.

Clenching his fists tightly and sensing the strength of his physical body, Connor silently asked the auxiliary chip in his mind, "Auxiliary chip, how much has Odin's blood pool enhanced my physical strength?"

"Beep! Odin's Blood Pool has increased the physical strength of the main body by 2.1 times. According to the analysis of the auxiliary chip, the main body will no longer need to worry about the physical strength limiting the development of mental power before breaking through to become a formal wizard." The cool female image of the auxiliary chip appeared in Connor's mind.

"Two point one times? Not bad!" Connor smiled with satisfaction after receiving the analysis results from the auxiliary chip!
