This wizard is just unscientific

Chapter 253 Two [Steam Cores] Acquired!

Soulfire Rock District, Lamoll Street.

Tree Heart Cave Tavern.

"Waaaaah..."

It was as if the surging roar from the shadow realm had penetrated into the real realm.

It was accompanied by a low, whimpering sound.

The shadowy silhouettes in the corners were magnified by the hissing sound, quickly spreading and enveloping every corner of the tavern.

The lights and fireplace flames inside the tavern were quickly suppressed, leaving only a small area of ​​fire.

Even the flames and light from the furnace outside the window were greatly suppressed.

The many guests in the tavern, quickly engulfed by shadows, experienced the feeling of falling rapidly from dusk into night.

The entire tavern fell silent.

The guests all wore strange expressions as they scrutinized the scene of shadows invading reality.

Before long, as the surging and hissing of the Shadow Realm dissipated, the shadows quickly retreated to a corner of the tavern.

The glow of the tavern's magical candles and the flames of the fireplace finally brought back most of the tavern's space.

The tavern, which had been quiet just moments before as the shadows expanded, was now silent.

The tavern gradually came alive once the lights regained their dominance.

"What's going on? Is that Shadow Lord going mad?"

Someone, holding a wooden barrel and a wine glass, huffed and puffed, expressing their dissatisfaction.

"The howls from the Shadow Realm have even permeated into the Realm."

"I don't know. When I came over just now, I heard people say that it seems the Shadow Lord and the Demon Lord are fighting again," a guest who had just come in said, shaking his head.

"Is it that demon lord?"

"Who else could it be but that demon lord?"

Hearing that it was a battle between lords, many extraordinary individuals immediately showed envious and fearful looks.

"A war between lords!"

One of the guests remarked with emotion.

"Let alone wars between lords, even wars between chieftains are not something we can easily get involved in."

"It's estimated that only a powerful steam-type unit like Hilor could participate in leader-level wars."

"As for wars at the lord level... tsk tsk... I can't even imagine!"

"However, I heard that the battle between these two lords has ended. The Shadow Spider Lord's hiss in the Shadow Layer has penetrated into the Reality Layer, using the shadows of the Reality Layer as tentacles to bloom on a large scale. It has already appeared in many places."

"It seems... this Shadow Spider Lord is looking for something!"

"Looking for something? Looking for that demon lord?"

"I don't know."

"We should just stay here and behave ourselves, this powerful being at the lord level. We can't afford to provoke him."

"really!"

The tavern, now bustling again, was filled with chattering guests who couldn't come to any conclusions.

At this time.

In the corner, next to a table with a fireplace.

Tucker, whose figure was shrouded in a wizard's robe, examined the swirling vortex of steam opposite him for a moment before slowly withdrawing his gaze.

Tucker picked up the oak-crusted fruit wine glass in front of him, took a small sip, and then muttered to himself.

"What else could the Shadow Spider Lord be looking for? Naturally... me."

Not long ago, Tucker sent the fire demon Hertara to ride the Shadow Wolf to challenge the Shadow Spider Lord.

One demon and one wolf, two heroes fight Lu Bu, fighting and retreating.

The Shadow Spider was lured to a more distant location.

Then, Tucker used his phase-travel ability to enter the barrier layer that had a sealing barrier, but it was not very tight.

The sealing barrier of the Spider's Nest is quite powerful.

If it weren't for Tucker's powerful phase-traveling ability...

They really couldn't enter that peculiar sealing barrier layer.

After some investigation, Tucker found three extremely rare and unusual "Shadow Spider Crystals," each the size of a fist and containing powerful shadow runes.

"Rune materials" that contain the power of runes.

Tucker currently has only two types.

One type is dragon scales!

It contains a small amount of earth and fire rune power.

The second type is this "Shadow Spider Crystal".

It contains a large amount of shadow rune power.

On an individual level, this "Shadow Spider Crystal" contains far more runic power than a single dragon scale.

But whether it's the dragon scales or the Shadow Spider Crystal that Tucker obtained this time...

This material, which perfectly blends runic power with lord traits, is a top-tier runic material even within the transcendental realm.

If someone else took the "Shadow Spider Crystal," then that undetectable network of threads would become a clue for the Shadow Spider Lord to hunt them down.

Tucker, on the other hand, severed all the veins of the Shadow Spider Crystal.

This prevents the Shadow Spider Lord from finding the Spider Crystal's trail.

This is why the Shadow Spider Lord went berserk and furious in the Shadow Layer.

Tucker estimated that the powerful figures at Saint Land must have warned the Shadow Spider.

It is not allowed to cross over into the real world.

Otherwise, given the Spider Lord's characteristic tyrannical temper...

They'll definitely have to vent their frustrations in the real world.

But this is Saint Rand.

Even a powerful organization like the Church of the Dark Sun only dared to advance slowly, and did not dare to directly attack.

Not to mention this fourth-tier Shadow Spider Lord.

Tucker's quiet presence here is also to prevent the Spider Lord from entering the real world and causing trouble.

It now appears that although the Spider Lord is furious, it has not lost its mind.

If we really break into Saint Land, then... it won't just be the spider crystals we lose.

Tucker, fiddling with the glass goblet, carefully sensed the movements of the Shadow Spider Lord in the Shadow Layer.

Tucker planned to wait until the Shadow Spiders had settled down before going to Baggins to forge his wizard robes.

After all, the vampires and spider crystals were already in their hands, and for the current forging master Baggins, forging would only be a matter of a day or two.

Accompanied by another violent hiss from the Shadow Spider Lord.

The shadowy outlines inside the tavern quickly expanded, but compared to last time, they were much smaller and didn't hinder the many guests from boasting.

Just now.

"Squeak!"

The tavern's half-open door was pushed open.

Bevis Twain, a shadow steam wizard dressed in a shadow wizard's robe and wearing a felt hat with half his face hidden under the brim, walked in with a calm and profound aura.

His gaze swept across the room and he spotted Tucker, who was all alone.

After ordering a drink, Bevis Twain sat down in front of Tucker.

With a light tap on the table, a curtain of shadows descended from all sides, enveloping the two of them.

Immediately, Bevis casually placed a supernatural storage bracelet in front of Tucker.

Tucker picked it up and examined it briefly before letting out a long sigh.

"Phew! I finally got it."

Inside the extraordinary storage bracelet were two powerful steam cores, clearly newly created rather than those that had been stored for a long time.

"After absorbing the second steam core, I can upgrade my level again."

"This wave should be enough to get you to around level 36."

After some thought, Tucker also pushed the prepared extraordinary storage bracelet in front of Bevis Twain.

"Tsk tsk... I'm becoming more and more envious of your status as a refiner!"

After investigating the magic gold, Bevis Twain couldn't help but sigh softly, his face filled with envy.

"You can collect nearly 100,000 in rent just by going there once."

"Unlike me, even after going out to fight hard, risking my life, and taking on extremely high risks, I only managed to get 20,000 to 30,000 magic gold."

Immediately, Bevis Twain composed himself.

"Also... what about the three rewards?"

After thinking for a moment, Tucker replied, "Still under consideration."

"Um!"

Bevis Twain nodded.

"Once you've made up your mind, you don't need to tell me. Just find Bishop Martha Clark. You have Bishop Martha Clark's magic fireplace, right?"

Tucker nodded silently.

"Also, the second ecological war is just a few days away, so be careful during this time."

"It seems the Church of the Dark Sun has used quite a few powerful forbidden seals."

"Although you are not weak, the terror of forbidden sealed objects is often beyond imagination."

"clear!"

Tucker nodded silently as he fumbled for the Destiny Revolver beneath his wizard's robes.

This second ecological war will be extremely brutal.

Tucker has already begun making preparations in all aspects.

After Bevis Twain got up and left.

Tucker waited a few more moments, then got up and left.

With the long-awaited second steam core finally in hand, Tucker should now properly explore the potential of his [Steam Sequence].

This second [Steam Sequence] can significantly enhance the carrying capacity of Tucker's Steam Wizard Sequence ecosystem.

At the third level, Tucker might be able to master forbidden spells first.
