The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 348 The Secret of Becoming a Nightmare Lord

Richard was slightly startled, but quickly calmed down.

His nightmare artifact was originally made of a pyramid, with a mark in the middle, so it was normal to have some backup plan.

But Richard shook his head and said, "I think it's not enough."

Richard has already regarded this nightmare artifact as his own. Using this thing as a reward is like getting something for nothing.

How could Richard agree to this?
"Not enough?" Pyramid was stunned at first, then he understood what Richard meant, and couldn't help but said angrily, "Wizard, do you really think my things are your own?"

Richard nodded unceremoniously.

"Yes, I am my own, and this is what I deserve."

Richard's straightforward answer left Pyramid a little stunned.

He had seen wizards use contracts as toilet paper, but he had never seen a wizard so frankly admit that he used a contract as toilet paper.

Is this wizard shameless?

But Richard didn't think so.

The original deal was deliberately proposed by Pyramid in order to find someone to attract fire.

I'm afraid the pyramids at that time probably didn't expect that Richard could keep this nightmare artifact.

For such a contract based on calculation, Richard had no psychological burden to violate it.

Especially when the opponent is an alien.

Although Richard considered himself a pragmatist, the subtle influence of the wizarding society still made it inevitable that Richard had some racial concepts.

This makes his moral line unusually flexible when encountering different races.

The pyramid's unusually large eye looked at Richard again and again.

Richard's bold and frankness must have been supported by sufficient power.

It's not like he hasn't seen before where a wizard deliberately provoked the Nightmare Lord to attack him, and then the wizard killed him in return and took away his seal for research material.

This group of wizards are greedy and shameless to their core.

But after watching for a long time, he still couldn't figure out where Richard's confidence came from.

Although Richard has some nightmare rules, those nightmare rules are still too weak compared to him.

As for the powerful nightmare power, the pyramid didn't even take it seriously.

Wizards are able to run rampant in the nightmare world because they utilize the external manifestation of the world's rules far beyond that of ordinary nightmare creatures.

But in the nightmare world, nightmare rules are king.

Without sufficient rules to support him, even if Richard used the Big Disintegrator it would be useless to him.

It can't be that the wizard's confidence comes from the stupid bird on his shoulder.

"Wizard, your spirit of contract is bullshit." Pyramid said angrily.

Richard did not give in at all and said, "Do you really think I didn't see your original plan?"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little depressing.

"Wizard, I'm curious about where your confidence comes from!"

The sound of the pyramid was like a volcano about to erupt. A cold field spread from the pyramid as the center, and instantly enveloped Richard.

This is the nightmare realm, the specialty of every nightmare lord.

He wanted to see what gave Richard the confidence to act so boldly in front of him.

But soon, this field retreated back into the body of the pyramid.

Richard stood there, his expression unchanged.

He looked around the room, then looked at the throne of the pyramid, and then smiled faintly:

"Your methods don't seem to be very effective."

Pyramid looked at Richard in shock and anger. The reason why he took back his domain was because there was no trace of Richard in his nightmare domain.

He didn't even pull Richard into the nightmare realm!

This kind of thing has never happened to him since he came into possession of the nightmare realm.

Only a domain can fight against a domain, this is the consensus of all nightmare lords. But the wizard in front of him broke this point.

Could it be that this group of wizards have developed magical equipment that can prevent wizards from entering the nightmare realm?
Pyramid looked at Richard in doubt for a long time, and finally said:

"Wizard, you are indeed quite capable. Let me think about the terms of the transaction."

Richard smiled and said, "In that case, I will leave first. I hope you can make the right decision."

……

After leaving the palace, Richard waved to Bones and quickly left the pyramid mansion.

Just at this moment, Richard showed a look of relief on his face.

He tilted his head and looked at the palace with some fear, a hint of relief flashing through his heart.

It was indeed a wise choice to call Ulises over this time.

Only the domain can fight against the domain. In fact, this is a special statement in the nightmare world, because the nightmare rules of the nightmare world generally develop towards the domain.

And the real meaning of this sentence should be that only rules can fight against rules.

The nightmare realm is like a rapids. When ordinary people encounter rapids, they are often swept into the water. However, Ulises, who has a lot of rules, is like a reef. No matter how turbulent the rapids are, I will remain unmoved.

Of course, all this is based on the premise that Ulysses has sufficiently "heavy" rules, which is actually an indirect way of crushing strength.

Normally speaking, a nightmare lord of the same level as Ulysses would not be able to prevent Ulysses from being sucked into the nightmare realm without actively using the rules.

"Boss, where are we going next?" Bone asked with some confusion.

Richard seemed to have no intention of staying in the inner city. After leaving the palace, he walked towards the cemetery outside the city without looking back.

Richard replied casually: "Let's go outside the city. This cemetery city is a little unsafe."

The Cemetery City was once a nightmare territory. Although the nightmare lord abandoned this territory, the things he left behind were not completely taken away. When the pyramid activated the nightmare domain, Richard opened his energy vision.

In Richard's energy vision, underneath the inner city area of ​​Cemetery City, there were webs of nightmare power.

Richard didn't know what the effects of these web channels were, but he was sure that these things could be used by the pyramid.

Because he clearly saw a huge webway node in that room, and that webway node was exactly at the location of the pyramid throne.

If this was a coincidence, Richard would definitely not believe it.

So for safety's sake, Richard decided to leave this damn place temporarily.

……

Inside the palace, Pyramid sat on the throne, thinking about what had just happened.

Richard's performance was really scary. For a nightmare lord, the nightmare realm is their greatest ability.

And now, he was unable to pull a big nightmare disguised as an alien creature into the field.

This made Pyramid feel a little uneasy.

What on earth have these wizards come up with over the years?
After thinking about it, a black humanoid creature suddenly emerged from the pyramid.

"Go find the Dead Tavern," Pyramid ordered.

The black figure half-knelt on the ground, then quickly left the palace.

Every lawless place has a tavern for the dead, and Cemetery City is no exception.

The Death Seekers' Tavern was bustling as usual. The nightmare creatures were drinking and talking loudly about the two new nightmare creatures.

"Who are these two newcomers? How could they be related to the Director of Taxation?"

"Who knows? Anyway, don't worry about his background and don't mess with him. The guy who can be related to that skinning guy and still be alive must be very powerful."

"Skinning? Hahahaha, what a nice name. Be careful if someone hears you, or he will skin you alive..."

Squeak!

The door of the tavern was pushed open, and a dark humanoid creature walked into the tavern.

And when the nightmare creatures saw him, they all stopped talking.

"How come the tax director's villain is here?" whispered the nightmare creature who was just calling the pyramid a skinning creature.

"How would I know?"

The black figure walked up to the counter and suddenly the sound of the pyramid came from him.

"I need important intelligence about wizards in the past ten thousand years."

When the bartender heard the voice, a bright smile instantly appeared on his face.

"That's easy. I'll send 500,000 nightmare powers directly to you."

"Too many, one hundred thousand."

The bartender's smile froze, and then he smiled awkwardly, "You're bargaining too hard. How about 400,000?"

"Two hundred thousand, no more."

"Three hundred thousand. I'll give you the latest intelligence we just received. For this intelligence, our big boss even showed up in person."

"……make a deal."

After saying that, a big mouth suddenly opened on the black figure's smooth face. Nightmare crystals spewed out of his mouth like a fountain.

The devil bartender happily collected these nightmare crystals, and then handed a parchment scroll to the black figure.

The black figure swallowed the parchment scroll into his stomach, and soon his body trembled violently.

In the palace, Pyramid looked at the information on the parchment scroll, his mind a little confused.

These wizards had hardly appeared in the nightmare world in the past ten thousand years. Even the Death Seekers Tavern, which was the most well-informed, had only recently encountered a wizard.

And this wizard also brought explosive news.

Wizards have begun to explore the starry sea and no longer come to imaginary worlds like the nightmare world.

After all, the nightmare world doesn't have much use other than producing nightmare rules and serving as a testing ground.

In the past, wizards had not yet started to explore, so every resource area seemed extremely precious.

But now, wizards are having trouble digesting all the resources in the material world, so how could they have the energy to come to a world like the nightmare world where there is almost no output?

Pyramid integrated the parchment scroll in his hand into his body and began to think quickly about the next transaction.

Times have changed.

It's no longer the time when you can find a wizard just by looking around.

Richard, who is now working with him, may be the only active wizard in the current nightmare world.

If he doesn't seize this opportunity, then all his plans will probably fail.

After thinking for a moment, a black figure emerged from the pyramid again.

Although he felt somewhat unhappy, as a nightmare lord who had lived for who knows how many years, he would not be affected by this emotion.

Compared with what he is going to get next, the little benefit he gives up is nothing big.

……

The black figure's visit was so quick that it was somewhat beyond Richard's expectations.

Outside the cemetery, the black figure acted as a megaphone and began the final discussion with Richard.

"Wizard, I can give you something more, but this time we need a contract, a real contract."

Richard smiled and said, "That's fine. So what's your bid?"

The black figure paused for a moment and said slowly:

"Wizard, do you want to know the secret of becoming a nightmare lord?"
