Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 133 Triumphant Claw Potion and the Discovery of the Underworld Entrance

After learning from the merchant Lionel that the largest lord in the Southern Thrace military region, the Count of Samori, was in turmoil, Sunan felt that this would also be very beneficial to his own territory.

Anyway, if your city of Samori can't provide the function of a commercial market, then the surrounding towns that can will definitely take its place.

In this way, Maple Leaf Town's status can be further improved.

Moreover, if Su Nan were to upgrade his territory, it would inevitably lead to conflict with the Samori family. After all, no one would want a commercial hub of the same level and a count's territory of the same level to appear in their territory.

However, Su Nan didn't have time to deal with this matter for the time being. The merchant Lionel had already drawn the exact location of the petrifying witch's market and provided it to him.

Since it's only the middle of the month, the gathering definitely won't be held yet, but Su Nan decided to go to Earl Samori's territory on the last day of the month, bringing some low-level potions, to attend the witch's gathering.

Let's see if we can exchange for some useful magical resources.

This market is so close to my territory, I might as well go.

Moreover, the merchant Lionel said that the market is held every month, which means that many wizarding apprentices must go to the market.

I really don't know how these wizard apprentices, whose existence I had never been aware of before, usually live hidden in the world dominated by the Church of Storms.

Moreover, after much thought, Su Nan concluded that the reason the businessman Lionel survived was not because he was lucky.

It was those witches who did it on purpose.

Why? Because this gathering must be organized by petrifying witches to exchange magical resources.

If the petrifying witch wants to advance to the level of a formal wizard, she will inevitably need to collect resources.

Therefore, the petrifying witch definitely wants more wizard apprentices to enter this witch market.

But in this society dominated by the Church of Storms, the word "wizard" is taboo, and she certainly couldn't use it to promote her gatherings on the streets.

Therefore, she needed to create this kind of rumor among ordinary people to make the matter seem like a ghost story.

But if any wizards knew about this, they would certainly know that a witch market was hidden in the Earldom of Samori.

Five days later, Borgia and Blom, who had made preparations, boarded a ship and left the coast of Baron Peter's territory with thirty militiamen and a grass spirit corpse given to them by Sunan.

Meanwhile, Su Nan also spent money to arrange for some refugees to promote the hero Borgia who killed the "wizard" in advance, and to help him return to the Achaean Peninsula.

For southern Jiangsu, this is nothing more than a trivial move.

But if it succeeds, it will still be quite rewarding.

At the same time, Su Nan's mental strength reached 60 within these five days. After reaching 60, the effects of the Mental Strength Enhancement +4 potion and the Life Essence Concentration potion became much smaller.

The daily increase in mental strength is only 0.2-0.3.

It is expected that once his mental strength reaches 65, the effects of these two potions will further diminish.

Meanwhile, Su Nan had completed 31 of the 100 gargoyles that Solon had sculpted. After converting them, Su Nan installed them directly on the rooftops of various buildings in Maple Leaf Town. It was expected that within the next two weeks, the installation of 100 self-destructing gargoyles filled with explosive insect potions would be completed in Maple Leaf Town.

Meanwhile, Su Nan also had his more than twenty werewolf deacons patrolling the territory for a long time, and had Wolf Two stationed in Maple Leaf Town with twenty super werewolf messengers.

During this period, Jinx, the queen scarab beetle in the Four Seasons Garden, spawned another generation of modified scarab beetles and now has a swarm of 20 modified scarab beetles.

The transformation of the Scarab Legion is not far off.

The survival rate of Jinx's offspring has greatly improved, which shows that Su Nan is on the right track for reform.

During this time, in his spare time, the old butler Warwick also took the initiative to teach the werewolf messengers werewolf martial arts.

Warwick, the old butler, had already developed a set of werewolf-style martial arts through his interactions with Robert.

Therefore, he wanted to pass on this martial art to the werewolf messengers to increase their fighting power.

Indeed, improving strength is not just about increasing panel data.

Learning new martial arts and gaining more combat experience can also subtly improve combat effectiveness.

Therefore, Su Nan had the werewolf messengers begin learning some of the werewolf martial arts techniques summarized by Warwick.

In this way, Warwick became the head coach of his werewolf army.

Meanwhile, during this time, Su Nan drew inspiration from the 0.5-ring plant magic he had just learned, the "All Plants Are Soldiers Spell," and created the sixth claw-type potion for werewolves—the Triumphant Claw Potion.

Unfortunately, like the Flame Claw, the Triumph Claw can only be installed by werewolves who have reached the (secondary ascension) Super Werewolf level or higher.

In other words, ordinary werewolves still only have the most basic four-claw skills.

Su Nan also decided not to upgrade anymore, because the abilities of a werewolf who has undergone one ascension have reached their limit. The four types of claw-type additional magic potions have almost exhausted the potential of a werewolf who has undergone one ascension.

A super werewolf equipped with the Triumph Claw will possess the Five Claws skill.

Wolf One and Wolf Two possess six claw-type skills.

Triumphant Claw Potion is a potion that increases the sharpness of werewolf claws, transforming their already steel claws into formidable weapons capable of easily cutting through ordinary knight's swords.

That's why it's called the Claw of Triumph.

The super werewolf, possessing a combination of Wolfsbane, Triumph Claw, Steel Claw, Attack Claw, Agility Claw, and Power Claw, has taken its melee combat ability to a new level and will be even more effective against the energy shell on a warlock.

In the Four Seasons Garden, the magic potion recipe guarded by the great tree has been calculated by the AI.

Standing on the third floor of the Oak Wizard's Tower, Su Nan began to consider whether to use the Atlas Oak tree left behind by the Oak Wizard to create the [Guardian of the Ancient Tree of War].

Moreover, he recently had a new idea: to apply the Oak Wizard's animal-enlarging magic to werewolves to see if he could create a giant werewolf.

But just as Su Nan was about to begin research in these two directions, Wolf Three Deacon urgently contacted him through the wolf pack effect.

They said that the village of Amolod in their territory had been attacked by an enemy they had never seen before.

Su Nan thought the blind nun was harassing him again. He was very angry and thought he wouldn't let her leave until he beat her to a pulp. But when Su Nan left the garden and entered Amorod Village with Vasilyan, he was surprised.

The attackers of Amorod Village were two enormous monsters, like giants, with green, frog-like skin and only one huge eye on their heads.

The two monsters also had the skeletons of some giant creatures on their bodies used as clothing to cover their private parts.

These two big goofballs had already rushed into Amorod Village and smashed up a house. They even tried to grab their own people who were screaming and running away. However, these two big goofballs were too slow and after a long time, they couldn't grab anything, just like a claw machine.

There was a little girl from the village of Amorod who watched in horror as two giant hands reached around her head. Her initial terror turned to fear, then to... confusion.

Because the two monsters' eyesight wasn't very good.

Even if she stood still, they still couldn't catch her.

Su Nan began to wonder where these two big guys had crawled out from. He knew that his territory was under full surveillance, so how could they have entered Amorod Village before being discovered by Wolf Three?

Unless, they... crawled out from underground.

The two simpletons started to get angry. "How can we cannibals not catch anyone?"

"Why can't we see anything...?"

"It's sunlight, but the sunlight is so bright it's blinding us. Why does this world need sunlight? If it were always night, we could see everything!"

"It's getting warmer up there, not so cold anymore. It seems like we can migrate to the surface now."

"Eat, eat, eat! Eat all the two-legged creatures in this village! We'll even eat the lord here. We two suffered so much in the underground world, but now that we're on the surface, we can eat anything we want. The creatures here all look so small and weak."

"We can definitely win."

Su Nan finally understood where these two idiots came from.

The underworld?

By the way, the Oak Wizard did mention that when the magical tide receded, the wizards discovered that some magic remained underground, so some wizards suggested moving the entire wizarding world underground.

Could it be that some wizards did indeed create an underground world, and with the arrival of the magical tide, those magical creatures that used to live underground are now automatically migrating to the surface?

Sunan said to Vasilyan, "Go stop those two idiots and don't let them hurt my men. Then, bring those two idiots to me by force."

"Perhaps I can find something interesting in them."

Vasilyan bowed to Sunan and said, "Yes."
