Full-Time Magister: I Had No Intention of Reaching the Dimensional Throne

Chapter 142 Selling Stolen Goods and Forging Weapons to Obtain Na Crystals

On the other hand, several ordinary vampires were completely helpless against Bai Mo's spatial blockade. Even when they hid in the shadows, they could not escape Ding Yumin's powerful mental perception.

The moment they are found is the moment their lives end. Fire fists are swung, wind discs rage, and the most powerful is the Divine Dust Tiger.

This guy hasn't fought in a long time, even though he's also a warrior. But vampires who rely on assassinations are no match for Shenchenhu. Often, Shenchenhu, who is in full armor and transformed into a towering rock tiger, will slap him half to death in a single exchange.

With Ding Yumin's mind magic, these vampires, even as warriors, had little ability to resist. After eliminating the advanced-stage warrior, they could only passively endure the attack. After Bai Mo and Da Sheng finished their battle, Ding Yumin and Mu Nujiao also ended their fight.

The operation to wipe out the vampires of the Northern Club was a complete success, yielding a total of eight pairs of vampire fangs, one of which was the leader's fang.

The Commander-class Bloodfang can probably sell for 300 million, and the other seven pairs of Bloodfang can also sell for a little over 300 million, for a total of 600 million.

Da Sheng only wanted one-third of the rewards for a commander-level officer. Leng Qing said she didn't want the money, so Bai Mo didn't make a fuss.

He planned to find Huo Tuo and ask if his sound-detecting earrings could be enhanced, as Bai Mo intended to give them to Leng Qing.

"Once I sell these things, we'll split the money equally, about 160 million each," Bai Mo said to Ding Yumin and Mu Nujiao, then looked at Mu Nujiao.

"Don't refuse. You're the one who lured that vampire out. Otherwise, we wouldn't have made any money. You didn't want to accept too much help from the family, right? This is just enough for you to break through to a higher level, buy the Star River Vein, or equip one or two top-tier spirit seeds, as well as magical tools."

Mu Nujiao glanced at him, then at Ding Yumin, and nodded.

The items were sold through Qingtian Hunting Grounds' channels, so they are safe and secure, and you don't have to worry about being scammed.

The next day, Dasheng left after receiving the money, saying he would see him again when he ran out of money.

Bai Mo, on the other hand, went to Huo Tuo's studio in the Pearl Mage Tower, since he had worked there before.

Li Junnan had also heard of his reputation, and unlike the last time they met, he wasn't arrogant. He politely welcomed him inside. Huo Tuo still looked somewhat unkempt, but his eyes were even more piercing than before.

"I remember you, Bai Mo, right?" Huo Tuo recognized Bai Mo as he entered. "What kind of magical tool do you want me to forge? I'll give you a discount since you used to work for me."

"Okay, thank you, boss. You're very generous."

"Hey kid, stop joking around."

Bai Mo smiled, and the Sound Detection Earring appeared. He severed his connection with the magical artifact and gestured to Huo Tuo.

"I would like to ask you to upgrade this magical artifact."

"Tsk tsk, this thing is actually here with you!" Huo Tuo had been examining the sound-detecting earring ever since Bai Mo took it out, muttering to himself.

"Hmm?" Bai Mo asked, puzzled.

"This is a practice piece I made in my early years. At that time, I was learning from my master and I happened to get a nice pair of unusual bone structure, which led to this earring."

With a look of reminiscence in his eyes, Huo Tuo sighed, "Back then, we were so impulsive that we just randomly picked a mediocre sound mage. It's a real shame about this piece."

"But I didn't expect him to fall into your hands, which gives me a chance to make amends."

Bai Mo nodded seriously, understanding. Anyway, it wasn't your problem.

He chimed in, "Master Huo, do you think this can enhance it? If a sound-based mage is needed to assist, I can. I'm a mid-level sound-based mage, that should be enough."

"We can enhance it; we don't need your assistance." Huo Tuo waved his hand. "Is there anything else? If not, come back in three days to pick up the items."

"Of course there is more." Seeing that the old man was eager to make up for his regrets, Bai Mo quickly took out the strange bone that he couldn't figure out from his space.

This strange bone is shaped like a ring, but it is exceptionally large, taking up the entire table. Its surface has a crystalline luster, and silver shooting stars occasionally streak across it.

As soon as it was taken out, Huo Tuo's gaze was fixed on it, and Li Junnan, the apprentice who was standing silently to the side, also looked at this strange bone with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

"This is a strange bone I obtained by chance. I don't know what kind of creature it belongs to, but it looks to be no less than a commander. I want to use it to forge a magical armor or a magical shield."

Bai Mo explained the unusual bone to the two of them.

"A shield-type magical artifact? Something this good should be crafted into the finest armor-type magical artifact to do it justice!"

No sooner had Bai Mo finished speaking than Huo Tuo vehemently objected, his face full of contempt for Bai Mo's blindness to talent.

"Teacher, so this really is an unusual bone from the Void Serpent?" Before Bai Mo could speak, Li Junnan, who was standing next to him, heard this and immediately asked excitedly.

The Void Serpent is extremely rare to encounter, and even harder to kill. Magical artifacts made from its parts are even rarer than those made from space-type mages.

Huo Tuo took the strange bone from Bai Mo's hand, squinted, and examined it carefully, as if he were looking at an unparalleled beauty. He even gently stroked it with his hand, looking like a perverted old man.

He answered Li Junnan's question casually.

"Excellent! This is a Void Serpent's unusual bone! And it's not the bone of an immature Void Serpent, but the bone of a Void Serpent that has reached its peak and become a high-level monarch. What a treasure! I will use all my skills on it."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo was pleasantly surprised. Doing something seriously versus just going through the motions makes a world of difference.

So he stood up and asked, "Master Huo, when will you be able to finish crafting it?"

Huo Tuo held up one finger. "One month, but you still need to pay. Cutting in line will cost three times the price."

Very well, although the old man was somewhat excited about being able to forge such a fine item, he didn't lose his head at all, and he still had to collect the money he was owed.

"Then I'll swipe my card."

Sure enough, the treatment of a VIP is different. After spending half of the money from selling the Blood Fang, Bai Mo received a package from Huo Tuo Studio the next day—an enhanced version of the Sound Detector Earrings.

Only then did it acquire some capabilities similar to the Sound String Probe, enabling it to detect all situations within a radius of 1,500 meters.

Because the material itself is rare rather than high-end, this is already the limit.

Bai Mo planned to give this to Leng Qing. As the deputy presiding judge, Leng Qing was not the type to pursue power. She often personally carried out some infiltration or tracking missions. With this, she would be much safer.

After all, even a master of shadows can be detected by sound-based detection if they are not careful.

However, Leng Qing has been on a mission recently and cannot be contacted for the time being.

So we can only wait for a while.

Bai Mo arrived at a gray market near the Pearl Mage Tower. The owner of this market was mysterious, but anyone with even a little bit of influence in Shanghai knew that it was actually the Hunter Alliance and the Pearl Magic Association.

It's semi-official in nature, has a decent reputation, and is quite large in scale.

There are many things that the authorities can't control, so they have no choice but to get involved and keep them under their noses.

Bai Mo arrived at a pawnshop called "Palm Pearl," which was run by the Hunter Alliance. They had some rather unorthodox methods.

He even helped Mingzhu Mage Tower buy back stolen treasures, because the person who pawned them later lived a safe life and had a decent reputation among the hunter mages.

Bai Mo, wearing a circle mask, took out the mysterious magical artifacts from the space and placed them on the platform for appraisal by a specialist.

The staff member who was serving Bai Mo did not engage in conversation with him. After calculating the total value of the magical items, they agreed to transfer the money to the bank account provided by Bai Mo.

It only amounted to about 20 million in total, mainly because there were no armor or magical artifacts; otherwise, it would have been at least double that amount.

Since it was found anyway, Bai Mo didn't mind.

There are also people in the market who specialize in buying spirit seeds. The prices are about the same as those outside, but more than what pawnshops offer. Bai Mo sold two spirit seeds and bought a wind spirit seed and an earth spirit seed.

One sale and one purchase mean no money was made.

Afterwards, Bai Mo wandered around the market again. There were quite a few scammers. Many of them were selling ancient magical artifacts, pointing to the ones from last week and saying they were from the Western Zhou Dynasty, or pointing to fish tanks and saying they were chamber pots used by Qin Shi Huang.

Why doesn't he say he is Qin Shi Huang?

Shanghai is getting colder and colder. The winter month has passed, and the December weather remains the same.

Today is the winter solstice. Bai Mo, who had just left the Bai family, was still savoring the look of astonishment on the face of the Bai family head when he saw such a huge pile of resources.

The face on that playing card hasn't shown any expression for a long time.

He didn't go to the yard; Yu Mian took her younger sister to visit her grandmother.

He turned around and came to the Azure Sky Hunting Grounds, which was more lively than usual, and Mo Fan was there as well.

"Hey, Bai Mo, what brings you here? I was just saying I was going to find you," Mo Fan said.

"You came when you wanted to. What do you want?"

Bai Mo glanced at him.

"I heard from Lingling that you have a vacant apartment in Jinyuan Apartments?"

"Yes, you want to rent it?" Bai Mo nodded, glancing at Lingling.

"How much is the annual rent?"

"Market price, I can give you a 20% discount. Why aren't you with your sister? Today is the Winter Solstice."

"We have nowhere to stay."

Bai Mo nodded, then looked at Lingling.

"Lingling, help me organize some information about the mud monster."

"A mud monster?" Lingling thought for a moment. It seemed to be an elemental creature, not very powerful. She had made many discoveries of it in the dark caves of Qianzhou, so she couldn't help but ask out of curiosity:

"What do you want with these guys?"

"I need something inside them."

"What is it?"

"Nanjing." Bai Mo didn't hide anything and said it directly. "Through some intelligence, I learned that these demons can devour things containing powerful earth-attribute magical energy to evolve. I suspect that they contain nanjing within their bodies."

"I see. Very few people are attacked by mud monsters. They usually live in dark underground caves. Most people don't know much about them. It seems interesting. I'll help you look into it."

Lingling then changed the subject, "But I want to go too."

"Okay." Bai Mo nodded.

Previously, without the sound system or the ability to see in the shadows, he didn't have much interest in the mud monsters on the distant Guizhou Plateau, but times have changed.

Finding them now is not difficult, which is a good opportunity to prepare for my earth-based nanocrystals.

Bringing Lingling along wouldn't be a problem, as the mud monster isn't interested in little guys who don't have any magic power.

"What are nanocrystals? Are they valuable?"

Mo Fan, who was standing next to him, was a little confused. He didn't know anything about Na Crystal or Mud Monster.

"Nanjing is a type of material that can be used to create growth-type soul-cultivating magical artifacts; it's priceless."

Lingling explained the matter of the crystal to Mo Fan, and said that his strength was not very strong and he might be eaten. She asked him if he wanted to come along.

Mo Fan shook his head. He couldn't be of much help anyway, and besides, he finally had a holiday and wanted to go see Xin Xia.

"Come and eat some glutinous rice balls." Leng Qing walked out of the kitchen, carrying a pot of glutinous rice balls. Bai Mo waved his hand and brought it over to her.

The first bowl was given to the oldest man, Bao, and then everyone else could have their own.

The glutinous rice balls were made by Leng Qing herself, and they were filled with ordinary white sugar.

Bai Mo thought it tasted pretty good, especially with fermented glutinous rice; it was at least better than what his mother ate at home.

On a cold day, eating a few steaming hot glutinous rice balls and then taking a bite of sweet and sour fermented rice will dispel all the chill in your body. The rising heat will soothe your internal organs, making you want to let out a sigh of enjoyment.

Even fire mages and ice mages, who are not afraid of heat or cold, would find it hard to resist this wonderful feeling.

Magic only gave them the ability to resist extreme cold and heat, but it did not deprive them of their ability to feel temperature.

After finishing the glutinous rice balls, Bai Mo gave Lingling a look, and Lingling got up and left Leng Qing's side, and Bai Mo sat down next to her.

Leng Qing glanced at the two of them but didn't say anything.

Bai Mo took out a box, opened it, took out the now-changed sound-detecting earrings, and handed them over.

"Here you go, the one you used before. It's a sound detection earring. I had someone upgrade it, and now it can detect up to 1500 meters."

"Okay." Leng Qing took it, and the light blue earring flashed with light, reappearing on her left ear.

Bai Mo looked at her ears. They were clean and white, looking as smooth as porcelain. The protruding earlobes glowed with a faint pink under the sunlight shining through the French windows, making them look very delicate. A small light blue earring adorned the rounded earlobe, adding a touch of refinement.

"Is it pretty?" Leng Qing asked calmly, with only a slight smile on her lips.

"It looks good," Bai Mo said, and then reached out to pinch it.

I've got it.

His hand was grabbed.

Bai Mo looked up at her, while Leng Qing glanced at the others in the hall.

Lingling was organizing data on the computer, Old Man Bao was dozing off, and Mo Fan quietly shifted his gaze to his phone.

And clicked on Xin Xia's profile picture.

"Let's go for a walk." Bai Mo twisted his wrist, not pinching her ear, but holding her hand and pulling her up, heading outside.

After strolling around for a while, the two arrived at the Mingzhu Mage Tower.

He came here today for another reason.

That is, to find Huo Tuo and get his own armor and magic tools.

"What do you think of my name, Void Illusion Armor?"
