Witch, don't be so lazy

"That's right. Evangar is a master of the Chaos School, but he's also proficient in spells from other schools. Remember the Armor of Earth? He invented it. Who dares to say he's not familiar with the Earth School?"

Hans said calmly, "But it's obvious that one can't reach omniscience and omnipotence simply by studying and researching. No one can master all magic and knowledge. Evengar is a smart man, so he naturally understands this principle. Therefore, we need to have another approach."

Anko nodded.

Indeed, as the saying goes, "My life is limited, but my knowledge is limitless. To pursue the limitless with the limited is dangerous." Human power will eventually be limited.

She blinked her eyes and listened patiently with her ears perked up.

Hans took a sip of his tea.

Anko blinked and started sipping the juice.

The old guy is still drinking.

"Hey! Don't go too far!"

An Ke slammed the money bag on the table and said angrily, "How much do you want?"

Hans raised his eyebrows. "It's not about the money."

An Ke was stunned for a moment, her momentum slightly weakened: "Don't tell me we need to sign a contract?"

After all, if you use your brain, you will understand that these things are obviously secrets among secrets.

"If there is, then of course I have to sign it, but the problem is, how can I possibly know how Evanga will reach the Omniscience and Omnipotence?"

Hans spread his hands and began, "Who do you think I am? Do I deserve to know? And who do you think you are? Do you deserve to listen?"

Four very reasonable questions.

An Ke scratched his little head, then glared with his big eyes:

"So, you asked me for twenty gold coins, and all I got was an introduction to Evanga?"

"Yeah, what else would you do with this little money?"

Hans shrugged.

"No, since you said it would cost so much, I can go to the tavern and find a bard for just one silver coin. He can sing for a long time, and there's music to listen to!"

"The bard only makes up stories. This is all true and reliable information, with a large amount of documents to support it."

"...Then is there anything less true and reliable? It's just a guess. I'm sure I'm not the only one in history who's curious about Evanga's thinking!"

An Ke was so anxious that she stood up.

"Don't worry, if it's just rumors and speculation, there are so many of them. They involve the end of the abyss, or the grand scheme of dominating the spirit world. Some are even so exaggerated as to even talk about forging a kingdom of heaven."

Hans thought for a moment and then said,

"But if you ask me, this is also the most widely accepted hypothesis. It's likely that Evanga's method is related to the gods. After hundreds of years of research, it has been found that during the Old Empire, especially when Evanga was active, many of the gods who hid and slept in the spirit world completely perished... well, at least they permanently lost the ability to respond."

"Evangar killed Tusk's divine and noble soul in the present world. At the time, everyone thought he was just trying to consolidate his prestige within the Old Empire and make an example of someone else to intimidate the world. But now it seems he may have other intentions."

"Oh, speaking of Evangar's achievements, that's why everyone thinks he's on the path to omniscience. After all, they're simply too exaggerated, far exceeding the combat power of ordinary epics. Especially when the Old Empire fell. How did you introduce the fall of the Old Empire in your school?"

"Well, the corrupt rule led to serious civil unrest. The resistance of the major families, especially the Fenghua family, severely damaged the vitality of the Old Empire. There were also powerful enemies from outside. The Church was the main force in the attack, and Tusk, the elves, Dragon Island, Cloud City... various forces, large and small, also participated in the attack. As a result, the Old Empire collapsed."

An Ke recalled the words from the book and then answered.

"Almost, but you know, the most crucial thing is the clash of top-tier forces. Well, the problem is indeed that there are hidden concerns within and powerful enemies without. The main problem is that some demons betrayed the empire. Uh, I'm talking about Mammon. There are also a few who didn't contribute for various reasons. The Church is indeed very powerful, but they still almost failed to destroy the old empire."

Hans said, "Because Evanga's strength was beyond measure, four archangels were sent to siege him, along with countless choirs and judges. Although they were successful in the end, three archangels perished, and the remaining one fell into a deep sleep. This immediately extinguished the equally powerful Church at the time, and then other forces entered the fray."

"Haha, if they hadn't seen the heavy casualties suffered by the Holy See, how could they have dared to go over and divide up the fruits of victory, fight for the legacy of the old empire, and create countless grudges that continue to this day."

"Of course, the Church got the biggest share. If we were to rank the forces most likely to have collected Evanga's achievements, it would definitely be the Church, followed by the North, Fenghua, and Tusk..."

"The North?"

An Ke was stunned. "When the old empire fell, the Northern Territory shouldn't have been established yet, right?"

It was clearly several decades after the fall of the empire that the ship of destiny carrying the sages began to sail towards the north.

"Well... indeed, but... anyway, there are many reasons. There should be some secret information about Evanga in the tower, especially the Sixth Master. Well, but that has nothing to do with you. If you don't transfer to another school, it's hard to say whether you can be admitted to the Tower Academy, let alone enter the main tower."

Hans shook his head and changed the subject, "Never mind that. Now that the story is over, shouldn't you switch to the School of Shadows?"

Sixth seat?

What's the name?

Anke shook her head and strangely skipped over the message, only paying attention to Hans's subsequent words.

“No!”

She answered decisively.

What does it mean that you can’t get into the Tower Academy if you don’t change your school? The old thing has no idea how powerful her liver skills are.

"Love turns!"

Hans was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "If you regret it in the future, don't blame me for not trying to persuade you!"

He slammed the table and stood up, just about to chase people away.

"I want to buy spiritual things."

Hans instantly revealed his mercenary smile again and sat down happily.

"It's easy to talk about."

Chapter 43: Invisibility Spell

Hans Magic Workshop.

An Ke flipped through the dozens of pages of the book in front of her, which was full of various spiritual objects.

...l leave another one to die father 6 four ...

"The Soul of Yigesha": drowned, prematurely died, abandoned, despair and curse are bred on the young corpse, red blood, black tears, vowing to return all the pain, that is its only consciousness.

The price is 120 gold coins, and it is produced in the Fenghua Kingdom. It is recommended for use by the School of Necromancy and the School of Chaos. The estimated depth of the spirit world is about 100.

Note: Sufficient supply.

……

"Yamadeer Horns": A shy and friendly spirit, usually active in mountains and dense forests. If a lost traveler is in trouble, just shout loudly with a sound similar to "Huban", and these spirits with their beautiful big horns will lend a hand. Of course, that was in the past. Now the big horns are only dyed with a dazzling red.

The price is 361 gold coins, and it is produced in the Fenghua Kingdom. It is recommended for use by the Natural School and the Chaos School. The estimated depth of the spiritual world is about 150.

Note: Sufficient supply.

……

"Red Hat with White Beard": A goblin living in the wilderness of the southern continent. They are short in stature, have the face of an old man, have long white beards, and hands like sharp eagle claws. They like to move around in the dark, stealing, raiding at night, and setting traps. Their celebration ceremony is to crush the enemy's heart and pour it on the hat-like organ on the top of their head.

The price is 544 gold coins, and it is produced in the Fenghua Kingdom. It is recommended for the Shadow School, Nature School, and Chaos School. The estimated depth of the spiritual world is about 160.

Note: Eight pieces left.

……

"Ukerbak's Tail": A lion-like monster with bull horns on its head. When it exhales, it emits black smoke and smells of sulfur. The most precious part is its tail, which is always burning with flames. The most delicious part is the meat on the back of the neck, followed by the lower abdomen, which is fresh and juicy. Eating its meat can enhance male sexual performance.

The price is 777 gold coins, and it is produced in the Fenghua Kingdom. It is recommended for use by the Fiery Sun School and the Chaos School. The estimated depth of the spiritual world is about 120.

Note: Out of stock.

……

An Ke quickly went through all the spiritual objects and then slammed the book shut.

"How about it?"

Hans took a sip of tea slowly. "I deliberately didn't include any spiritual objects from the North, but if you're brave enough, you can check out the manual over there."

He pointed to another page in the book on the table.

"No need. If you want something from the North, I might as well go directly to the Winter Magic Chamber of Commerce and the Adventurer's Guild to buy it."

Anko replied.

The reason for choosing Mammon Club was mainly for things from other places. Of course, the other two companies also had them, but the problem was that they were not in Xueshan Town. One had to go to Asda City and go through some cumbersome procedures, but Mammon Club only needed the money to be in place.

"I went through the entire list and there are three minor issues."

"explain."

"First of all, Lin [(eight) 儛丝溜.玐奇起, why are they all produced in the Phoenix Kingdom? Are there any that are farther away?"

An Ke asked, "Secondly, you clearly said last time that the price of spiritual items was between fifty and two thousand, but the most expensive item in this booklet is the Tail of Ukback, which costs seven hundred and seventy-seven gold coins, and it's out of stock."

"Finally, I feel like the spiritual items here are not very compatible with me, except for the Soul of Yigosha, but it seems a little worse. Uh, are there any items of higher quality that are also more spiritual and soul-oriented?"

If the quality is too poor, on the one hand it will affect the magic power and mental power gained after the promotion, and on the other hand it will affect the parade events.

Hans rolled his eyes.

"The farther the distance, the more difficult it is to smuggle. Even my small base is difficult to obtain... No, I'm saying you're overthinking it. Just don't use the North's tools to locate it. The depth you can sink to right now is very shallow. It's almost impossible for Antica to notice you in the boundless spiritual world."

"And I've stressed this to you a thousand times: don't believe in metaphysics or compatibility. Spiritual objects can only provide you with an anchor point and lock in your depth, but they have almost nothing to do with the talent you ultimately acquire. Understand?"

"I see. So just almost?"

Anko blinked.

Although she doesn't really believe in metaphysics, she plays music for good luck when drawing cards and goes to the temple to worship and burn incense before the big exam. These are things she did many times in her previous life.

"..."

"Just tell me if you have any goods."

"Yes, of course, but it will take some time. It's a batch of goods from the Papal States, and it's said to have been leaked from the witch hunting team. There should be monsters related to the soul. The depth is between 150 and 300. It will be auctioned on the black market in the maze."

Hans replied, "Anything expensive will be auctioned, and almost all will be sold, so you won't see it in this brochure. If you want to participate, remember to bring a little extra money."

"Black market auction... This is my first time participating. Approximately how much does it cost?"

"You can basically get it with more than a thousand. Spiritual items can't be too good. The top priority is always to complete the parade events and advance to higher ranks. Setting the anchor too deep will almost certainly lead to death. The academy won't deliberately set impossible questions for exams, but the spirit world isn't that friendly."

This is true.

Although it is a dungeon, the spirit world does not need to consider the feelings of the participants. If you are not strong enough and sink too deep, you will be seeking death, and there is no place to seek justice and complain.

Rickon from Mars's team actually sank quite deep. During the period of great seafaring adventures after the collapse of the old empire, the depth was at least around 280.

Of course, it’s not necessarily that he is arrogant, it may just be that he is simply unlucky.

After all, all spiritual things will repeatedly emphasize "estimates" and "approximately". If there is a slight change in the spiritual world, such as a storm or something, and it sinks a little more, then you can only blame it on bad luck.

"Okay, let me know when the time comes. I just need to save some more money."

Anko nodded.

During this period, he took on a total of twelve specialized enchanting business orders, and also drew some scrolls. Including the money earned from treasure appraisals, and deducting various expenses, An Ke had a total of 829 gold coins on hand, not counting silver coins and copper coins.

This was a huge sum of money that was far beyond what the original body could have imagined. Even more than a month ago, An Ke could not have imagined that she could become so rich so quickly. She was still eating boiled potatoes at that time.

Although it's obvious that small amounts of money don't last long.

The target spiritual object is estimated to cost more than a thousand gold coins, and there is still a gap of several hundred, but Anke is not panicked at all.

Mastering a skill that can make money gives you confidence!

She got up.

"Don't worry. These are six earth-splitting lizard skins and three more made of fire duck down. How long will it take you this time?"

The former is used to make the [Armor Spell·Strength] scroll, and the latter is used to make the [Fire Spell·Power] scroll.

"Well, about three or four days."

An Ke put the things into her small bag, waved goodbye, and left the workshop.

……

The circular square in the center of the town became increasingly crowded.

Because following the notice posted by the Adventurer's Guild, those adventurers who were self-aware and knew when to quit had already left the camp. A small number of them went home directly, while most of them stayed in the town for some time.

In fact, as early as two days ago, as the nest advanced deeper and deeper, many people no longer had the strength or courage to move forward.

Especially after learning that the Rock Tortoises were so unlucky as to encounter the leader of the White Walkers, and that only one member out of more than a dozen people survived because he was injured and left far behind, but in the end he also lost an arm and half a leg, most of the adventurers began to back off.

As for those who still stayed in the camp, some of them wanted to take a gamble in order to gain wealth and fame, while others were very powerful and were invited by the lord's mansion to be on guard around the camp, helping the guards to deploy defenses and stop the White Walkers from escaping.
