Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 243 Obsidian Amber and Seeds of Evil

Obsidian amber is only available in the second warehouse.

Other apprentices rarely have goods in their hands.

Although it is not the kind of item that is prohibited from being used without authorization and has a number, it is a byproduct of items with a number.

Number 89, Earth element, Queen of quicksand termites.

Obsidian amber is an oil secreted by the queen termite of the quicksand termite.

The instrument containing number 89 can provide food to the queen ant while automatically collecting oil.

The accumulated grease will automatically seal itself into a small ball and roll into the bottom drawer of the instrument. Over time, it will oxidize and turn black.

Because of its pure black color and the transparent, gelatinous texture of amber, it is called obsidian amber.

It is said to promote limb regeneration and is also a key catalyst in some rare drugs.

Therefore, the price is quite high.

However, if you exchange it for ten Ghost Feathers, you can still make a profit.

Thor slowly suppressed his surprise, even crossing his arms and leaning back in his chair.

This is a way of expressing refusal through action.

After making his request, Kukin stared intently at Saul. Seeing that Saul had no intention of getting up to respond, his expression gradually darkened.

"Can I trade my credits for yours?" Hu En, who was standing to the side, was initially disappointed when he heard that Kukin only accepted obsidian amber in exchange. However, seeing that no one responded for a long time, he couldn't help but speak up and try to make an offer.

However, Kugin is not a good-tempered person.

Sol ignored him, and he didn't dare to really get angry, so he took out his anxiety and frustration on Huen.

"Don't you understand Common Language?"

Kujin's eyes widened, and his tall stature immediately frightened Hu En, who shrank back and dared not utter a word.

"Is Kukin in such a hurry?" Thor thought to himself. "It seems that his and Ferguson's real purpose in trying to find fault with me was Obsidian Amber."

Unfortunately, ten Shadow Feathers weren't enough for Thor to set aside his prejudices; he wouldn't mind turning Kujin's lower body into two burnt matchsticks as well.

Kukin is still anxiously awaiting Saul's choice, but the others cannot wait for Kukin indefinitely.

Luo Kai, who was standing in the middle as the host, gave everyone a few more minutes to think. When no one answered, he clasped his hands together.

"It seems no one is bidding on the last item. In that case..."

"Wait!" Kujin interrupted Luo Kai.

He bypassed Luo Kai, walked directly to Thor, and looked down at him. He was about to speak, but hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "Hmph, I'll exchange the Seed of Evil that I've nurtured for three years for the Obsidian Amber... Is that alright?"

Luo Kai was interrupted abruptly, rolled his eyes without any attempt to hide it, and looked at Thor, waiting for the latter's reply.

"What is a seed of evil?" Thor had never heard of it before, and without trying to hide it, he asked directly.

Upon hearing this, Kujin stretched out his hand, revealing a black seed the size of a pea in his palm.

The surface of the seed is mirror-smooth, reflecting a person's image.

But if you stare at it, you'll find that what's reflected isn't your own reflection.

It looks a bit strange.

"The seed of evil is a seed that grows from the infusion of different resentments and evil thoughts. Based on its sprouted fruit, a powerful spell can be created. I don't need to explain what a spell is, do I?"

As Kujin continued, his tone became somewhat stiff.

It's probably because it hurts to part with money.

As for what the curse was, Thor certainly knew.

Spells and witchcraft are somewhat similar, including protective spells, offensive spells, and the most common curses.

Unlike witchcraft, curses possess a degree of autonomy, yet lack rationality. While powerful, they also carry the potential to spiral out of control.

The curse behind Heidi's head was a spell, and it must have been a very powerful, offensive one.

Thor also encountered a curse during his early life. That was West Germany's ultimate move, the Triple Curse. It used three lives as bait to exchange for Thor's life.

However, in the final step of the curse, the curse worms were discovered and killed by Thor before they entered his body, thus preventing them from causing fatal harm.

Thor is already interested in this thing.

"What kind of curse will this seed of evil cultivate?" he asked.

Kujin paused for a moment and did not answer immediately.

"Oh."

It was Jero, who was standing to the side, who laughed first.

He chuckled and raised his hands, "Let me make this clear, I don't mean to interfere with your transaction, but is it really appropriate to trade something like the Seed of Evil, which is like gambling?"

If someone were to ruin his plans at that moment, Kugin would probably be unable to resist throwing a punch at them.

But the person in front of him was Jero, one of the strongest among the third-level apprentices, and also the one most likely to become a formal wizard.

Kukin naturally dared not confront him directly.

Unlike apprentices like Jero, Billy, and even Wright who developed their own locators that best suited their individual needs, Kugin's locator solution was based on a solution that had already been proven by his predecessors.

While this approach offers high security and a high probability of creating a location device, its mass appeal means it has a low compatibility with Kugin himself.

Therefore, Kukin, who developed the positioning device using this method and was fortunate enough to advance to the third level of apprenticeship, was no longer qualified to compete with other apprentices using autonomous positioning devices.

"Gambling?" Thor lowered his eyes, seemingly displeased at being tricked. "Is it possible that the fruit born from this seed of evil cannot create a powerful spell?"

"Whether it's powerful or not depends on your luck. If your luck is really bad, you might not even be able to make the spell," Jero explained.

Kugin immediately retorted, "If this seed of evil wasn't of good quality, would I have painstakingly cultivated it for three years?"

Jero simply smiled slightly, everything understood without saying a word.

However, at this moment, Saul firmly said, "I accept this deal. We'll discuss the details after the meeting."

Kukin was overjoyed and almost handed the seeds in his hand to Thor directly.

"You seem to enjoy adventure," Jero said, stroking his chin without objecting.

After Kugin left, Thor continued to stare ahead until the diary closed and flew back to his left shoulder.

Yes.

The reason Saul suddenly agreed to Kugin's deal was because the diary had taken a liking to the other party's seeds.

[October 22, 316th year of the lunar calendar, sunny]

The seeds of evil are of varying quality.

But the one in front of you

It's obviously not simple.

It will open the door to a new world for you.

As for whether or not to go in...

You still need to decide for yourself~

"Who cares if we need to go in later? Let's get the gate first."

Saul had to admit that he had been somewhat complacent in the past.

In fact, no one who can become a wizard apprentice, especially a third-level wizard apprentice, is simple.

Even if their abilities and talents vary, they all have their own methods and opportunities.

"I can participate in some of these high-level exchange meetings in the future. I just need to be careful about Luo Kai's motives. But if he wants to test me, I can test him in return."

When Kujin returned to his seat, Rocco finally had the chance to finish what he hadn't said earlier.

"Alright, it seems today's exchange meeting has come to a successful end. Well then, without taking up any more of your time, I will still notify you three days before the next exchange meeting. I hope you will all be alive to attend then."

As Luo Kai chanted his incantation, the parchment on the ground gathered together, and the magic circle covering the entire room became ineffective.

The gate opened, and everyone left one after another.

However, the people who made the deal were not in a hurry to leave.

They still have a lot to do.

Especially those who buy and sell a lot of items.

Although Wright and Kukin both had their own businesses to run, without exception, they chose to come to Thor immediately after the water exchange.
