Chapter 132: Do you think he is a second-level wizard?
Back in Red Maple City, Su Ya and Peng Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, being chased by people from Turin all the time, it was quite uncomfortable to be on tenterhooks.
Pei Ze was not worried at all. After fostering the three giant eagles in a shop specializing in selling birds near the city gate, he led the two of them to the mission hall.
The mission hall was still crowded.
Pei Ze asked Su Ya and Peng Yan to wait at the entrance of the hall, while he walked through the crowd and walked towards an empty counter.
In the corner, several wizards were discussing things. One of them caught a glimpse of Pei Ze from the corner of his eye and let out a low sigh.
"Pe Ze is back!"
Several companions turned to look, and when they saw that it was Pei Ze, their faces suddenly showed surprise.
"Why is this guy back again?"
The speaker was a wizard with dark red eyes. He was the same person who had just mocked Pei Ze for overestimating his abilities this morning.
"Isn't he coming back from completing the mission?"
"How is it possible? Let's not talk about whether he can take down the No. 89 defensive fortification. Even if he really has that strength, it has only been more than half a day. How could he complete it so quickly?" "That's right
. That's right, do you think he is a second-level wizard?"
Several people said with a smile.
The red-eyed wizard nodded with deep understanding.
He, a wizard who has reached the first-level crystallization stage, dare not say that he can capture the Turin people's defenses alone. Why can Pei Ze do it?
However, the next scene left the red-eyed wizard and others stunned.
Pei Ze took out the recording ring and handed it to the counter. After checking it, the staff actually bowed to Pei Ze, walked out of the counter and welcomed him into the box next to him.
The red-eyed wizard and others have stayed in Red Maple City for nearly half a year, so they naturally know that this is the treatment only given to wizards who have completed important tasks.
Could it be that Pei Ze really captured Fortification No. 89?
Several people looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
Suddenly, the red-eyed wizard seemed to remember something. He turned around and looked at the three-dimensional map on the wall, staring at the location of fortification No. 89.
Others also reacted at this time and cast their gazes over.
About ten minutes later, the light spot representing fortification No. 89 flashed suddenly, then dimmed, with the words "Destroyed" displayed next to it.
Looking at this scene, the red-eyed wizard couldn't help but have an expression of disbelief on his face.
The rest of the people were also dumbfounded, with shock on their faces.
Looking at this situation, Pei Ze seems to have really captured Fortification No. 89!
They wondered if this was a coincidence, but according to the rules of Red Maple City, once someone accepted the task of attacking the Turin fortifications, no one else could accept the same task within a certain time limit.
Violators will not receive mission rewards even if they capture the fortifications.
As for when Pei Ze handed over the mission, there happened to be a wizard who captured Fortification No. 89 and took the battle images to the mission hall for verification at the same time. To be honest,
this possibility is lower than Pei Ze completing the mission.
After a moment of silence, a wizard hesitated and asked: "Could it be that Pei Ze joined other wizard teams to complete the task together?" The
red-eyed wizard's eyes lit up and he said quickly: "This must be the reason!"
Several other wizards asked Looking at it, everyone shook their heads secretly.
There are only a few wizard teams in Red Maple City that have the strength to capture the Turin people's fortifications. The members of this team have already cooperated with each other tacitly after many missions and will not easily recruit new members to avoid affecting the team's combat effectiveness.
——Unless a member is killed in battle and there is a personnel gap.
But even so, it usually won't attract a new wizard to join.
Furthermore, even if Pei Ze really joins a certain wizard team, logically speaking, he should not be the one to do it as a newcomer when accepting and handing over tasks.
This possibility is also extremely low.
In fact, the red-eyed wizard knew this deep down, but he just deceived himself and didn't want to show it.
Pei Ze didn't know that someone was talking about him behind his back.
After handing over the task, he successfully received 1,000 merit points.
It is worth mentioning that merit points are recorded on a chip card, which is also the payment tool used by wizards to exchange resources on the exchange.
Putting away the chip card, Pei Ze walked out of the room and left the mission hall under the awed eyes of the staff.
When he came outside, Pei Ze motioned to Su Ya and Peng Yan to take out their chip cards—everyone in Red Maple City had one—and then marked 30 merit points for each of them.
"Sir!"
Su Ya and Peng Yan were surprised when they looked at the numbers displayed on the chip card.
30 merit points are enough to exchange for a bottle of resonance potion. Naturally, they don't know how precious this thing is.
To be honest, they had little effect in this operation and were really not worth the 30 merit points.
Pei Ze waved his hand and said without any doubt: "I will be practicing for the next period of time and will not go out for the time being. Don't relax, take these merit points to the exchange to exchange for some training resources of the legendary knights, and take advantage of this period to improve your strength. ."
"Remember, the stronger you are, the more help you will have to me."
Seeing this, Su Ya and Peng Yan hesitated for a moment, and finally accepted it with gratitude.
Pei Ze didn't say anything more and walked straight to the exchange not far away.
When he came to the exchange, he first exchanged all the demonized metal ingots and holy water for merit points, and received a total of 684 merit points.
As for the statue of the gods and the Eye of Winter, Pei Ze thought about it carefully and decided to keep it for the time being.
"Red Maple City can extract faith crystals from statues of gods and sacred artifacts. Maybe I can also use the omniscient eye to deduce the corresponding technology." "If it succeeds, the number of
faith crystals I can get will definitely increase greatly!"
No The middleman earns the price difference, and his gains are definitely more than simply exchanging faith crystals from the exchange.
But this is a matter for the future. The main task now is to increase mental power.
"A total of 1,624 merit points."
Pei Ze thought for a while and redeemed 10 bottles of unicorn blood essence in one go.
"The effect of unicorn blood essence will weaken as the user's mental energy level increases, so the sooner you take this thing, the greater the benefits." "Wait until the
unicorn blood essence loses its effect, and then take the bud of the Holy Spirit."
After collecting the unicorn essence and blood, Pei Ze left the exchange in a hurry.
He couldn't wait to try the effects of unicorn blood.
Returning to the stone house, Pei Ze first let Xiao Yi out of the goblin house for some air, and then asked the mist crow to guard the living room. Then he entered the bedroom, sat down cross-legged on the floor, took out a bottle of unicorn blood essence, and put it in his hand. Look carefully.
As far as Pei Ze knows, unicorn blood is silver-white. However, it seems that due to refining and concentration, the liquid in the bottle appears bright silver, shining with a dreamlike and beautiful luster under the light, as if to tell the story of the nobility and beauty of the unicorn.
Pei Ze took off the cork and drank all the blood and essence in the bottle.
As the essence and blood began to take effect, a similar feeling of sublimation slowly emerged.
To Pei Ze's relief, the process of taking effect of the unicorn blood essence was not as intense as other potions and rare items.
The experience of taking the hallucinogenic potion still left a deep impression on Pei Ze.
After about ten minutes, the feeling of sublimation slowly faded away.
Pei Ze opened his eyes and immediately called out his omniscient eyes.
[Spirit 14.39]
[Physique 9.70]
"Increased energy level by 0.72."
A smile appeared on Pei Ze's face.
The effect is pretty good, almost equivalent to taking four or five bottles of resonance potion.
"There are still nine bottles of unicorn blood essence left. I wonder if it can be raised to level 20?"
Pei Ze thought for a while and did not continue to take the second bottle of unicorn blood essence.
In order to ensure the maximum effect of the medicine, he planned to take one bottle a day.
Putting aside his distracting thoughts, he closed his eyes and began to meditate.
Red Maple City, entrance teleportation square.
The teleportation circle lit up, and Pei Yonggao's figure slowly appeared, and he walked out with a gloomy expression.
It wasn't until he saw the people waiting outside that he forced a smile on his face.
"Zhanqing, why are you here?"
"An old friend I haven't seen for many years is here. Of course I have to come and greet him."
Pei Zhanqing smiled slightly, looking at Pei Yonggao's aging face and slightly white temples, he sighed in his heart. Take a breath.
Looking back, the two of them graduated from the Tower Academy together, were promoted to wizards, and then went to another dimension to explore and adventure together. They still vividly remember it. It seems like yesterday, but unfortunately things have changed now.
"Counting the time, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years." A look of nostalgia flashed across Pei Zhanqing's face.
"Yes." Pei Yonggao glanced at his old friend with a complicated expression.
More than ten years have passed, and Pei Zhanqing has become a second-level wizard, but he is still stuck at the first-level liquefaction stage, and it is very likely that he will never break through the first-level crystallization stage in his life.
Perhaps more than twenty years ago, they were friends who worked hard together.
But now, there is an insurmountable gap between them in terms of strength and status.
Facing Pei Zhanqing again, Pei Yonggao could no longer find the same feeling as before, and he couldn't even suppress a trace of restraint when facing a strong person rising from deep in his heart.
Pei Zhanqing was keenly aware of this, sighed secretly, and changed the topic: "My lord has already told me your purpose of coming here, but to be honest, you may be disappointed." Pei Yonggao's expression tightened: "What do you mean
? "
Pei Zhanqing glanced around and motioned for Pei Yonggao to follow him towards a stone house not far away.
Entering the stone house, Pei Zhanqing set up a soundproof array, and then said in a deep voice: "Just three days ago, Pei Ze destroyed a Turin man's fortifications alone, and it is said that he also killed a second-class priest and three first-class priests. Waiting for the priest, you should understand what this means, right?"
Pei Yonggao froze on the spot, his eyes shining with disbelief.
Of course he knew what that meant.
After fighting against the Turin people on the plane battlefield for half a year, he was already familiar with the enemy's power.
A fortification guarded by second-class priests and multiple first-class priests requires at least a first-level crystallized wizard to take action.
It must also be the kind of veteran first-level crystal wizard who has accumulated a lot of trump cards and backhands.
In other words, Pei Ze's true strength now exceeds that of most first-level crystallized wizards and is extremely close to that of second-level wizards!
But how is this possible?
That kid has obviously been promoted to wizard for less than two months!
Even a wizard from a bloodline family can't possibly increase his strength so much in such a short period of time?
Pei Yonggao only found it incredible.
He knew that Pei Ze's talent was outstanding, but he never thought that this guy would be such a monster!
After a long silence, Pei Yonggao asked in a hoarse voice: "Is the news authentic and reliable?"
Pei Zhanqing said: "There is a record of Pei Ze completing the mission in the mission hall. This matter has now spread throughout Hongfeng. Even Councilor Ji Zhang was alerted and even asked about it personally."
Pei Yonggao's expression suddenly became more gloomy.
Pei Zhanqing saw this and sighed and said: "Pei Ze's current strength is no longer something you can deal with alone. I advise you that you'd better give up the idea of dealing with him." As soon as these words came out, Pei Yonggao's eyes widened
. He suddenly turned red and his facial features became a little distorted.
"Impossible!" He gritted his teeth and said, "I will never let that damn little beast go!" With his
future cut off and the revenge of killing his son, the hatred for Pei Ze was gnawing at his heart every moment. .
Especially after hearing that Pei Ze's strength had improved again, he became more and more jealous.
Pei Yonggao suddenly raised his head, looked at Pei Zhanqing with red eyes, and said word by word: "Zhanqing, for the sake of our many years of friendship, help me!" Pei Zhanqing was silent for a few seconds, shook his head and said, "You
know Yes, the family doesn't want to start a war with the elemental faction yet. If I really help you deal with Pei Ze, the consequences will definitely be very serious." "
No, that's not what I'm talking about." Pei Yonggao stared at Pei Zhanqing, "You are doing evil. Let’s study the monster, as long as you give me an evil monster!”
Pei Zhanqing’s expression changed, his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and his tone turned cold: “How do you know?”
Pei Yonggao grinned and squeezed out an unknown word. With a bitter yet sarcastic smile, he said in a low voice: "I'm not blind. How could I not detect your actions? This kind of thing can only be hidden from outsiders." "Don't worry, I know you are looking for new ways to break through
. I have no intention of interfering with the family's decision, but in exchange, you have to give me an evil thing. You also need experimental data. This is beneficial to both of us, isn't it?" Pei Zhanqing's expression changed, and it took him a while to calm down
. "You should know the consequences of using evil objects to increase your strength, right?"
Pei Yonggao nodded expressionlessly.
Seeing this, Pei Zhanqing knew that his friend had fallen into the madness of hatred and obsession. He sighed with a complicated expression, stopped trying to persuade him, and took out a crystal ball and handed it over.
The crystal ball is only as big as a fist, and is completely blue and translucent. Inside, you can vaguely see countless hazy and twisted souls.
Just looking at them, there seemed to be countless strange low moans full of hatred ringing in my ears.
Pei Yonggao carefully took the crystal ball and looked at the evil spirit body inside. A complex expression of fear, fear, ecstasy and anticipation appeared on his face, and finally it all turned into cold murderous intent.
