Wizard: I brought the wrong system...

Chapter 521 Playing Hard to Get (Happy New Year!)

The explorer took the book, but didn't rush to read it. He turned his head slightly and smiled faintly:

"You weren't planning to sell that magic trick you just performed, were you?"

Yaro had no hope of getting away with it, so he bowed slightly and said, "I was just clumsily imitating you."

"Imitation?" The explorer raised an eyebrow slightly.

Yarrow humbly replied, "You display your wealth with money, and I prove my worth with wisdom. Each has their own desires, and each will reap their own rewards, won't they?"

"Shall we talk about that magic trick from before?" the explorer asked tentatively.

Yarrow's tone was gentle, yet extremely firm:

"Please forgive my stubbornness, but I don't have much time and really don't have time to discuss things with you in detail. So I hope our transaction process can be as simple and quick as possible, and that we don't dwell on things that have already been discussed..."

Actually, Yaro wasn't in a hurry.

Because he could sense Heri's condition through the strange head in the backpack on his back.

Knowing that this strange space has an owner, and that "he" is aware of the "intrusion" by Yaro and this powerful and mysterious explorer, the owner of the strange space naturally wouldn't make things difficult for the insignificant Heri and Bevan.

The reason Yaro said this is actually the same as the reason why he doesn't sell the "Demon Phoenix Golden Armor".

The art of escape is also his primary combat technique.

If the explorer had agreed to that price beforehand, it would have been fine, but for various reasons, it might have already been sold.

But since he didn't agree, Yaro wouldn't discuss it further.

He will only be given one chance to make a bid, and the bid must meet Yarrow's expectations. If it does not, the deal will be void.

This creates the atmosphere of a sealed auction.

This would both increase the price as much as possible and deepen explorers' interest in "Blood Frenzy".

Yaro glanced at the half-book in the explorer's hand, softened his tone slightly, and continued, "Moreover, you saw through that trick just now; it was merely a variation of the propagation technique. The book you are holding now is the product of my meticulous research."

"So confident?" The explorer was slightly surprised.

"Take a look first before you decide."

Yaro didn't know if the explorer could spot the highlights of "Blood Rage".

He hoped that explorers would recognize this and buy it to resell in large quantities.

The wider the spread of "Blood Frenzy," the more knowledge is born based on "Blood Frenzy," and the greater the benefit to Yaro.

If the overall environment can be changed and a trend can be created, giving the martial arts system room to develop, then Yaro can go with the flow and won't have to worry about not being able to improve his strength.

Even a pig can fly if it stands in the right place at the right time!

"All right."

Seeing that Yaro was urging him repeatedly, the explorer finally understood that Yaro would not discuss the previous magic trick again, so he had no choice but to perk up and carefully study the tattered book in his hand.

But after watching for a while, the explorer frowned.

"Is this... a weakened version of knightly training?"

The ultimate result of "Blood Frenzy" is to obtain the secret technique of life force seed, which is only available to formal knights. It is not unreasonable to understand it as a weakened version of knight training.

Yaro nodded: "That's not entirely wrong."

The explorer closed the book, looked up, and said, "If it's only this level, I probably can't offer a high price, because with enough potions, transforming an ordinary person into a formal knight isn't difficult at all, and you don't need the knowledge you've researched."

"Moreover, formal knights are merely suitable servants to us."

"Only a Grand Knight can barely serve as a subordinate of a formal wizard."

"But the Great Knight placed too much emphasis on individual talent, and there was basically no direction for further improvement afterward."

"If you're lucky, young, and have a strong understanding, you might be able to switch to wizardry. But even if you succeed, you'll just be a high knight who knows a few tricks, no different in essence from a high knight with magic tools."

……

I thought the explorer was knowledgeable and experienced, and I had just used some tricks to get him to read the book carefully, so he should be able to figure out the key to "Blood Frenzy". But even so, he still couldn't figure it out.

Yaro felt extremely regretful.

But he couldn't offer an explanation.

Because if he were to offer an explanation, it would disrupt the atmosphere of the sealed auction that had just been created, and the explorers would realize that Yaro wanted to sell "Blood Frenzy," which would then not fetch a sufficient price.

"Blood Frenzy" was practically the only suitable bargaining chip Yaro had; he had no choice but to gamble.

"Sir Explorer, since you deem it useless, then forget it."

Yaro extended his hand and said calmly, "Give me back the book. It's to me..."

At this point, Yaro suddenly remembered the "adults in my family" that the explorer had mentioned several times earlier, and in a flash of inspiration, he smoothly added a sentence.

"...They are very important to my elders."

The explorer's outstretched hand suddenly paused, and streaks of light rapidly flowed across his monocle, giving Yaro the feeling of a computer monitor constantly refreshing data.

You made the right bet!

He really knew that I had relatives who were officially wizards!

Yaro secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but pretended not to know and asked with suspicion:

"What's wrong, explorer?"

"Wait a minute, let me take another look."

The explorer offered no explanation, but opened the book, his monocle gleaming with a constant, shimmering light.

A moment later, he suddenly uttered a sound of doubt.

"Wait...no, something's not right!"

"This is……"

The explorer's pupils contracted slightly, and he abruptly looked up at Yarrow.

"Your family has discovered the underlying structure of a formal knight's physical attributes?"

I finally figured it out!

"What?" Yaro feigned confusion.

The explorer's voice unconsciously rose: "Your family has found the basic structure, similar to magic runes, the unit structure that constructs the physical attributes of a formal knight?"

Yaro knew that the explorer had finally found that unique "beauty of order" in the actions added by the system in "Blood Frenzy".

To put it simply...

If we say that using a potion to transform an ordinary person into a formal knight is like continuously piling up soil to create a hill, which is the height of a formal knight's hill.

So, the system was modified to first make mud bricks, then stack them one by one until they reached the same height.

The results are almost identical, but the processes involved are completely different.

Because if you really learn how to make 'mud bricks', you can build a taller building from the same foundation!

Furthermore, the process is more streamlined, and what can be built is not simply a mound for a formal knight!

If research continues in depth, the "clay bricks" can be further improved, for example, by modifying them into "red bricks," "cement bricks," or "metal bricks," thereby achieving an even higher potential!

"Sir Explorer, I don't understand what you're saying!"

Yaro knew nothing when asked, and said with a hint of anxiety, "...Give me back the book!"
