Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 52 Chalk Soil
"That Oulen is actually gathering helpers everywhere. It seems he really has some big plans!"

After returning, Roy's face was solemn and he felt deeply wary.

He can find himself, and of course he can find others.

There may already be many similar high-level apprentices active in the area of Dafengdi Hills.

But in comparison, another question is more worthy of exploration.

"Why do some materials contain innate essence, but others don't?
What is the difference between them?”

Roy now also discovered that those materials might contain certain properties.

The Murloc Lord has had the Thunder Eye for so long, but he has not yet absorbed the essence within it.

Oren had also had the finger and ear for a long time and had not noticed anything unusual.

Only you can absorb and utilize it.

But according to past trends, panel production increased by about 8% per month, and later it was 5%...

Recently I just stay at home and do nothing.

This probably means that "natural growth" has gradually lost its effectiveness.

"It might be because something changed after I obtained the bronze-level talent [Sulfur-Mercury Theory].

Could it be that even source qualities have different qualities, and different source qualities correspond to different talents?

In any case, it may be difficult to count on natural growth in the future.

I must actively seek out treasures containing essence in order to continue growing."

After much deliberation, he finally decided to go to the Windy Hills to take a look!
……

A few days later, February 2st.

On the third floor of the Witch Tower, in the room.

Turisaz!
Roy controlled the silver light, and a fist-sized rune of will appeared in the air in the form of a three-dimensional projection.

Driven by his increasingly powerful spiritual power, the results of this materialization became more and more solid.

"Good progress. If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before everything materializes."

Not long after, Roy extinguished the light, and the rune projection in his hand turned into fluorescent dots and dissipated.

He got up from the bed, washed up, fed his pet rat snake a quail egg, and then went to the alchemy room next door to check the automatic operation of the magic circle.

After a whole night, another batch of debris had its magic power extracted and was awaiting further processing.

"It would be nice if I had a magic core, an elemental pool, or something like that...

But for now, I don’t have the space or funds to do that!”

Seeing that the small magic circle was difficult to control and the magic power was already showing signs of leaking, Roy couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

He then sat down in front of the stage and performed the finishing steps of refining the magic stone with ease.

"This time it's 108..."

After checking out a few scrap pieces and throwing them into the recycling bin, Roy counted the remaining qualified magic stones.

This kind of work of helping others recycle their junk was the only thing he could do when he had time.

Fortunately, thanks to the help of [Skilled Workers], there is still money to be made.

He took out 18 coins as his reward, packed the remaining 90 coins, and took them out to the cafeteria for breakfast.

"Roy, you're really good and quick! I'll come back to find you!"

This time, the person who took over from Roy was Milena, who had previously sold the belt. She checked the magic stones that Roy brought and said with great satisfaction.

"Do you have anything like the Wandering Soul Messenger?" Roy asked while eating the food in his bowl.

"Yes, they are all freshly made. How many do you want?" Milena said with bright eyes when she saw the business coming.

"Give me six first," Roy said. "If there are any exquisite bottles and gift boxes, give me a few too."

"Okay, come to my place later."

…After breakfast, Roy went to Milena’s place and bought what he wanted.

The Wandering Soul Messenger is a ghost shaped like a will-o'-the-wisp, sealed in a small glass bead.

This disposable messenger can transmit messages remotely through the spiritual world and is a very useful and practical prop.

He planned to get one of these things for Olinda and leave it in the tower to help keep an eye on Oren's movements.

In addition, we must also leave backup plans on the sides of Renien and Celine to share the danger while broadening the scope of intelligence.

Of course, there is also the most professional counterpart, Niya, who works as a junior supervisor in the mission center!

The exquisite bottle and gift box are prepared just for her.

Roy put the homemade perfume worth 1 magic stone into an exquisite bottle bought for more than 10 magic stones, and then wrapped it in a gift box bought for several magic stones.

It suddenly transformed into a valuable gift worth more than 100 magic stones.

Not long after, Roy came to Niya with this valuable gift, to gather information and strengthen their relationship.

"Oh, how can this be so embarrassing?"

Niya accepted it happily with some surprise, and then told him all the information she knew.

……

Two days later, the wind was blowing in the hills.

Roy stepped onto the top of the mountain and looked into the distance.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, the mountains rise and fall like waves, and the vast forest extends all the way to the seaside.

"That Oulen actually didn't come after me, could it be that he really wanted my help?
No matter what, we must not be careless!"

This operation was actually risky. He did not call Renien and others to join him for their safety.

Roy observed the terrain, then turned downward and continued looking for clues.

This went on until dusk, but there was no significant gain.

He had to admit that he didn't have the incredible luck to encounter something good falling from the sky whenever he walked on the street.

Moreover, the surrounding area has been swept by many people, and any treasures that are obvious and easy to obtain have already fallen into the hands of others.

While thinking secretly, Roy suddenly discovered that on the opposite mountain, a group of people were chasing another group while fighting.

When the group of people being chased saw him, they actually ran over to him.

"Hey guys, hurry up! Help us!"

"Help you?" Roy sneered and drew the long sword from behind him. "Don't come any closer, or I'll chop you down!"

In such a remote place, it is very likely that they are colluding to deal with passers-by.

If you help out of kindness, you might end up getting yourself into trouble.

Furthermore, if you are really being hunted, you need help.

How could the person behind this let me go?

These people clearly knew this, yet they still ran towards me who was alone. It was obvious that they had no good intentions!

As a result, the group continued to move forward after hearing it, confirming Roy's guess.

He immediately activated his Neanderthal blood, and along with the blood mercury in his body, he burst out at an astonishing speed.

In the blink of an eye, the man facing him was hit in the chest by the charging attack, blood spurted out, and he died instantly.

Taking advantage of the momentum of the charge, Roy created distance again, turned around, took out a piece of chain, and muttered to himself.

"Run!"

The people in front were frightened and quickly scattered.

But Roy had already finished casting the spell.

In an instant, the iron chain turned into a snake and was thrown into the air, rushing straight towards one of them.
