Chapter 43: Appraisal (please follow up)
Richard’s pupils suddenly shrank! He was very sure that no one else knew that he had taken the mysterious egg at that time, because everyone else was dead. How did the other party know that Stephana's mysterious egg was with me?
One is that the other party is cheating me and is not sure whether I have taken it or not.
Second, the item the other party may be talking about is not the mysterious white egg, but other items on Stephana's body. After all, the situation was urgent at the time, and he fled in a hurry before he could search for the relics on several people.
Therefore, it makes sense that there might be other precious items on Stephana's body.
The third scenario is the worst scenario, which is what this second-level apprentice calls the Knight family. They have some kind of secret method or magical item that can track the whereabouts of the mysterious white egg.
But no matter which way, Richard was not going to admit it. Why should he hand back what he earned through his own skills?
If he were not strong enough, he would be killed by the arrows of the Shadow Stalkers like several others.
From this perspective, the Knight family should be grateful to him. First, he helped Stephana get revenge. Second, he got back the mysterious white egg and prevented it from falling into the hands of the night elves.
Now, it's good that the Knight family actually asked someone to come to the door aggressively to beg for it. The most important thing is that they don't plan to pay any price. It's really a dream!
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Richard denied this!
"Haha, young man, don't get excited. I'm just passing on a message. According to the employer's entrustment, I have finished the matter. My
name is Seymour, Seymour Michelle. If you change your mind, you can do it in these three days. Come find me in Room 201 in the teaching area, remember, you only have three days!" After saying that, Seymour sneered, turned around and left.
Richard's clenched fists showed his inner unrest!
The power of the top nobles is indeed extraordinary. They can actually dispatch earth-moving second-level wizard apprentices. Fortunately, they are in the school and no one dares to do it!
Damn it! Finally, I have enough energy points. As long as I give myself two or three months, my strength will increase several times!
At that time, even if the other party is a second-level wizard apprentice, he will not be afraid at all!
On the eighth day, when Richard came to Seles' laboratory on the second floor again, he found that the door was slightly ajar today.
"Is it Richard? Come in." A familiar voice came, and Richard looked happy.
"Okay, mentor."
When Richard entered the room, he found Seles sitting on a chair with a tired look on his face.
"Instructor, what are you doing?"
"Nothing, just a little tired. Last time you killed not one night elf, but a whole team, including a night elf witch and several spider women. The school spent a lot of
money It took a lot of strength to defeat them, and now that the passage has been sealed, there should be no problem in a short time!
But if you go out, you still have to be careful, as there may be fish that slip through the net." Seles said slowly.
Richard was suddenly shocked. Sure enough!
Fortunately, he retreated quickly enough. If he had continued to wander in the cave, the result could be imagined.
"By the way, the security office will soon make a conclusion about your last incident. They found out about those students. Although the corpse has been eaten by monsters and is beyond recognition, inspection of the remains shows that the fatal injury was from the steel arrow of the Shadow Stalker. Therefore, Richard, your suspicion has been cleared." Seles glanced at Richard
. , said with a smile.
When Richard heard this, it was a good thing. At least the school no longer restricted his personal freedom.
At this time, Richard suddenly remembered his purpose of coming to Seles, and immediately took out the mysterious white egg in his arms and said: "Teacher, I got this accidentally on the Spider Trail. Can you help me identify it?" ?"
"Hey, this seems to be it." Seles's eyes lit up and he stood up from the chair.
"But, Richard, are you sure you want me to do the appraisal? My appraisal fee is relatively high. Although you are my disciple, I cannot violate the wizard's principle of equal exchange. But as my disciple, you should There is a discount, so I can only charge half the fee, fifty magic stones, do you have it?" Seles looked at Richard with a smile and said.
As soon as Richard heard this, he knew that the idea of using the mysterious white egg to arouse Seles's interest and then get a free appraisal was no longer possible.
But for Seles to go to the school security office to stand up for him, Seles must earn the money for the appraisal!
Therefore, Richard said without hesitation: "Teacher, please forgive me!" and respectfully handed over fifty magic stones.
Seles took the magic stone and the mysterious white egg, then walked to another test table, placed the white egg under a microscope-like instrument, and observed it carefully.
Not long after, I heard Seles say:
"This should be the egg of the Soul-Eating Demon Spider. It is currently mutating. Judging from the degree of energy accumulation, it should be transforming in a stronger direction!" "The Soul-Eating Demon
Spider ?" Richard asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Seemingly knowing that Richard did not understand the Soul-Eating Demon Spider, Seles continued.
"Yes, a relatively rare spider monster that feeds on souls has a very strong restraint effect on spiritual creatures. By the way,
there is another saying about the soul-eating spider that after signing a blood contract with it , the enemy soul it absorbs at the end of each battle will be fed back to the blood contract target at the same time. It seems to be a ray of pure soul energy that can gradually improve a person's qualifications over time. However, I have only heard of this statement
. It has not been verified.
Secondly, your soul-eating spider has mutated, and whether it will have such an effect is still open to question!" At the end of the sentence, Seles added two sentences very rigorously.
hiss! It’s money well spent! Your instructor can identify the mutated things, it’s amazing!
And it can improve a person's qualifications. This sentence should be emphasized! Richard thought to himself.
It seems that this thing cannot be returned to the Knight family. I was originally thinking about whether it could be exchanged for magic stones, but now? Haha, just use it for yourself!
"Teacher, how long will it take to mutate? And what's going on with this blood contract?" Richard continued to ask.
Seles thought for a moment, "From my current observations, the mutation period of your Soul-Eating Demon Spider should take more than half a year. If you can provide pure spiritual body feeding, this process should be greatly shortened. About the blood
contract , this is very simple. After the Soul-Eating Demon Spider hatches, you directly feed a drop of blood essence to the Soul-Eating Demon Spider, and then chant the blood contract spell. If you are still unclear, you can go to the library to borrow related books! "Seles is not going to give a detailed reply to Richard on this simple question.
"Thank you, instructor! That"
Richard hesitated for a moment, but chose to continue.
"Teacher, after these few field missions, I feel that alchemy products have greatly improved combat effectiveness, so I want to choose your paid knowledge course on alchemy to learn." Seles shook his head and said, "
No. ! Richard, your ability to learn the Rodrigo Meditation Method proves that your understanding is very good.
However, alchemy is a subject that requires practical practice, requiring skilled hands-on ability and precise mental micro-management. What are you waiting for? When you can control skeletons with the introductory tricks of the undead system, and your control level has improved to a proficient level, come to me to sign up!" This made
Richard, who was still very disappointed when he heard the first half of the sentence, stunned.
