Original God: I can earn experience points

"Okay, I will. There are also elemental materials like the Flame Flower, so that I don't have to look for new materials next time I prepare a potion."

Li Qiuzhi nodded with a smile and agreed to the long-term entrustment of sugar.

"By the way, Sugar, if I want to learn basic alchemy formulas, are there any requirements?" Li Qiuzhi asked after thinking for a while.

"Eh? Do you want to learn the technique?"

Sugar was a little surprised, but that was right. Most people would be curious about the magical alchemy, so she pushed her round half-frame glasses and said:

"Mr. Li Qiuzhi, if you want to learn, you can come to the Knights' Alchemy Laboratory to find me when you have time. Alchemy is too profound and it is impossible to explain it clearly in a short time."

"Well... next time, I will bring fresh monster bones to consult you."

Li Qiuzhi carefully put away the ten tubes of elemental potions to prevent them from being accidentally broken or exploded.

Sugar should now be eager to start researching the new materials she just harvested.

It was indeed not appropriate for Li Qiuzhi to continue disturbing her.

"Well, besides bones, there are also rare things like leyline flowers."

The dark elastic band of the over-the-knee stockings slightly tightened the snow-white skin of Satang's legs, revealing a slight and soft feeling of flesh. She lowered her eyes and looked to the side, speaking a little embarrassedly.

[Sugar has a favorable impression on you, gaining 150 points of favorable impression. Current favorable impression level is Lv.3 (180/300)]

"no problem!"

Li Qiuzhi waved and left the shed where the alchemy synthesis table was located.

He has an appointment with Fischl and Bennett to explore the secret realm again tomorrow. After the morning's consumption, his arrow reserves are running low again.

When he returned from the secret realm last time, there was only one quenched fire arrow left, and there were only 30 armor-piercing arrows made of steel.

A lot of materials were lost when collecting them in the morning, after all, we were dealing with the fire slime, which is an elemental life form.

Under the erosion of the fire element, even arrows made of steel would be difficult to reuse.

So it's time to go to Wagner's blacksmith shop to replenish supplies. Li Qiuzhi sighed slightly, it seems that there will be heavy bleeding again.

He only had 320,000 Mora on him now, and he needed at least one-third of that to buy arrows. Tempered arrows were too expensive, and armor-piercing arrows were not cheap either. Buying ordinary iron-headed arrows was cheap, but they were not very effective against monsters.

Unless they are holders of the Eye of God who can control the elements, like Amber and Fischl, they use ordinary and cheap iron-headed arrows.

But when the elemental force is accumulated and condensed, the power shot out is three times stronger than the specially made quenched rocket.

This is a gap that is difficult for ordinary people to overcome.

It is better to improve swordsmanship. A bladeless sword is much more durable than an arrow. Thinking of this, Li Qiuzhi glanced at his character panel.

Experience point: 2845

Two thousand eight hundred experience points were enough to improve his swordsmanship to a certain level.

The first thing to improve is of course the "West Wind Sword Art: Royal Family" learned from Eula. It is a two-handed sword art, but it can also be performed with a one-handed sword.

Its advantage is that it can utilize the strength of the whole body, all parts of the body can coordinate perfectly, and girls can use it with elegant movements and it is very ornamental.

If a boy uses it, of course he can kill the enemy quickly and efficiently.

While walking on the way to Wagner's blacksmith shop, Li Qiuzhi invested experience points into his swordsmanship level.

Chapter 75 Strengthening the Edgeless Sword

Experience point-2798

West Wind Swordsmanship: Royal Family Lv.1 (2/100)

West Wind Swordsmanship: Royal Family Lv.8 (0/800)

The swordsmanship learned from Eula suddenly became a skill second only to the "West Wind Hunter Archery" in rank.

Li Qiuzhi's swordsmanship seemed to have been honed through thousands of trials and tribulations. Various related techniques and knowledge and experience emerged in his mind, becoming a part of his memory and even a physical instinct.

While Li Qiuzhi was subtly comprehending and digesting the swordsmanship, the short journey from the alchemy table to Wagner's blacksmith shop had already been completed.

Wagner was not forging weapons or anything else in the blacksmith shop. He was sitting with his back leaning against a chair, his eyes slightly looking towards the roof, as if he was tired and taking a rest.

Schutz, the blacksmith's apprentice, was still tending the furnace.

"Hey, Mr. Wagner, you can't stand it after not seeing you for a few days?" Li Qiuzhi greeted him jokingly.

Wagner glanced sideways at the visitor, then turned back and said:

"So it's you, kid. Even if I can forge iron, I can't replace my body with iron. People always need rest."

"Haha, is this the experience Mr. Wagner has summarized from his work? It does make sense."

Li Qiuzhi complimented with a smile.

"Well, how is it? Is the quenching rocket useful?" Wagner sat up straight from his half-reclining posture and asked Li Qiuzhi again.

"I can only say that Mr. Wagner is worthy of being a famous blacksmith in Mondstadt. The fire arrows he made have helped me a lot in my adventures. Now I'm here to buy more."

Li Qiuzhi spread his hands, his face showing helplessness that without the rocket quenching, the adventure would not go smoothly.

Although I now have good swordsmanship, I still need to stock up on arrows. After all, the ability to attack from a distance is essential.

All I can say is that when you can use a long sword, use bows and arrows less often. After all, every quenched arrow shot out is a round, golden Mora.

"Haha, kid, just based on what you said, I am willing to give you 100 Mora off each quenching rocket."

Mr. Wagner laughed twice, then said with regret:

"But unfortunately, the quenched rockets have been sold out. The commission for fire element ore posted at the Adventurer's Association's blacksmith shop has not been completed by any adventurer."

So your waist doesn't hurt when you talk loudly, right? Li Qiuzhi looked at him speechlessly.

"If that's the case, then there's nothing we can do. Give me thirty armor-piercing arrows. Is this also 100 Mora cheaper?"

Li Qiuzhi sighed, then said with a smile.

"You have a nice idea, boy." Wagner glanced at Li Qiuzhi, then ordered Schutz who was beside the stove, "Go and get him thirty armor-piercing arrows."

An armor-piercing arrow costs 600 Moras. If it is sold 100 Moras cheaper, his profit will be completely gone and he won't even be able to recover the labor costs.

"Okay, Mr. Wagner." Schutz nodded to show that he understood.

"Ah."

While waiting, Wagner thought for a moment and said to Li Qiuzhi:

"By the way, young adventurer, I just forged a batch of 'fine forging ore' for strengthening weapons. Would you like to buy a few pieces to try?"

"Strengthen weapons?" Li Qiuzhi pondered for a moment.

Strengthening the weapons in your hands can improve a person's strength immediately, but it is a bit expensive. After all, Mora is needed to buy "ore for fine forging", and Mora is also needed as a medium when strengthening weapons.

"How to sell it?"

Li Qiuzhi asked.

"Four hundred for miscellaneous ore, two thousand for good ore, and ten thousand for magic ore. This is the market price. I won't charge you a penny more." Wagner said, patting his chest with his strong right arm.

Then he continued:

"Three pieces of 'Magic Ore for Forging' plus two thousand Mora can strengthen your Edgeless Sword to its current limit."

Wagner pointed at the one-handed sword that Li Qiuzhi wore at his waist.

"As long as you find a few suitable breakthrough materials during the adventure, you can achieve the first breakthrough. By then, it will be much stronger than its current 'blank slate' state!"

"Okay, let's try it."

Li Qiuzhi pulled out the edgeless sword from the wooden scabbard at his waist and handed it to Wagner, asking him to help strengthen it.

After all, Li Qiuzhi has never strengthened his weapons, so he doesn't know how it is different from the game.

"Haha, you haven't strengthened your weapon yet, right? It's very simple. I'll give you some 'Magic Ore for Forging', and you can try it yourself."

Wagner laughed twice, turned around and took out three pieces of the "magic ore for fine forging" that he had just forged and handed them to Li Qiuzhi.

The mineral looks like smooth pink crystal. It feels cool in the hand and there is nothing special about it.

"Put them on the sword and then throw them into Mora." Wagner introduced.

Li Qiuzhi followed instructions and placed the edgeless sword flat on Wagner's forging table. The three pink crystals were arranged one by one on the flat sword body, but there was no reaction.

He took out two Mora coins with a face value of one thousand and let them fall between the "Magic Ore for Fine Forging" and the Edgeless Sword.

A magical thing happened. Mora emitted golden light that enveloped them, and then they slowly merged together.

"Not even a little bit left, Mora isn't enough, put in five smaller ones," Wagner reminded.

"it is good!"

Li Qiuzhi put in five Mora coins with a face value of one hundred, and the golden light became a little brighter. Not long after, a brand new edgeless sword that was strengthened to the level before the first breakthrough came out.

Li Qiuzhi took it in his hand and found that the scratches caused by chopping the rocks in the secret realm had disappeared, as if it had been reforged.

The Edgeless Sword at this time is no longer the original Edgeless Sword, but Edgeless Sword +20.

The first breakthrough that Wagner mentioned is what it means to be strengthened to level 20 in the game.

"How is it? Not bad, right? Now it is much more powerful than the unreinforced two-star weapon."

Wagner said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, three pieces of magic ore and thirty thousand Mora can almost buy a two-star one-handed sword, right?" Li Qiuzhi suddenly thought and said.

"A two-star one-handed sword costs at least 50,000 Mora. Your current edgeless sword is much more powerful than a two-star one!"

Wagner said so, and then Schutz came back with the armor-piercing arrow.

"That makes sense. Although high-star weapons are powerful, they also cost a lot to strengthen. The Edgeless Sword is enough for me for now."

Li Qiuzhi nodded slightly, then put away the thirty armor-piercing arrows, paid the full fee and left the blacksmith shop.

Including the Mora consumed as a medium to strengthen the weapon, he spent a total of a little over 50,000 this time. Since he didn't buy the quenching rocket, it wasn't a big loss.

When Li Qiuzhi walked back to Luoluomei Street, he found that the sky had darkened and he could vaguely see the stars in the sky.

Thinking of going back quickly to put down and organize the many things on his body, he turned into a dimly lit alley with a well-maintained green belt on one side.

Suddenly, he saw a pair of ice-blue, furry, erect ears popping out from the green bushes.

Please collect and read!

Chapter 76: Hero of the Dark Night

Li Qiuzhi felt very familiar with it. He had just encountered it in the secret realm two days ago. It was the Ice Abyss Mage, there was no doubt about it.

Why is it here?

Mondstadt is surrounded by walls. If the Abyss Mage flew over the wall, the patrolling Knights of Favonius would not be blind. Even if they were negligent, they would not fail to see such a conspicuous guy.

Could it have flashed in using magic? Or did it come directly through the Abyss Cult's teleportation network?

The flash range of the Abyss Mage does not seem to be too far. If he uses flash near the vicinity of Mondstadt, he may be discovered by the Knight of Favonius.

That can only be done by using the transmission network.

Are they here to gather intelligence? Or are they plotting something?

Moreover, it hides in the green belt in a strange way. By the way, those fluffy ears sticking up could be more conspicuous.

Why would the Abyss Cult trust such a guy with questionable IQ...

Li Qiuzhi entered stealth mode, controlling his steps to move closer without making any sound.

His right hand rested on the hilt of the Edgeless Sword +20, ready to draw the sword instantly and secretly poke it.

"Damn it! I was so close to succeeding, why did I get caught?!"

The green bushes trembled slightly, and a synthetic sound with a unique texture of monsters came from them. It was indeed the Abyss Mage.

It seemed that something that was about to succeed suddenly failed because it was discovered.

Li Qiuzhi seemed a little curious. What was the Abyss Cult going to do next? Last time it was the remains of the demon in the secret realm. Could it be that this time they wanted to attack Mondstadt directly?

The God of Wind has not appeared in Mondstadt for many years, so it is understandable that the Abyss Cult would send people to test it out.

After all, their goal is to overthrow the kingdom ruled by the Seven Gods.
