Wood examined the magic circle drawings submitted by the magic apprentices, his brow furrowed. Was the teaching at the magic academy becoming more relaxed? Why was everything so low-level?
He has been researching a new item recently, and the apprentice who is best at drawing magic circles has just registered as a first-level magician.
After successfully registering, the first-level magician moved out of the magician tower as if fleeing, and went directly through the teleportation array to develop in another city, and refused to come back no matter what.
What he didn't know was that most of the people in the magic academy were afraid of him and deliberately lowered their drawing skills, fearing they would be chosen by him and taken back to the magic tower to be slavishly treated like slaves.
"This one's okay." Wood pulled out a base map and set it aside. You can see the standard formation of the magic circle here. After filling in the correct magic characters, the magic circle will be generated normally. The magic words aren't written quite right, but this can be practiced and is barely passable.
Wood continued to search, pulling out another sheet. His frown relaxed slightly. The base diagram of the magic circle on this sheet was a little crooked, but the spelling was perfectly written, complementing the previous one perfectly. Together, the two sheets satisfied his basic needs.
Finally, his gaze stopped on a certain picture.
The basemap is only of basic quality, and the magic words are a bit crooked. But everything is done in one stroke, without any interruptions.
Magical words have a vast array of characters, with dozens of them having the same pronunciation but different spellings and meanings. This is because when creating spells, a key requirement is that each character must be completely coherent and continuous.
Most magicians who only focus on learning magic and not on innovation would not notice this. However, as a creator, Wood is very good at this.
"Call these three people over." He wanted to test whether the pronunciation was standard.
One girl and two boys.
The girl's name was Kunna, and her magic words were written in the most correct way.
One of the young men was Herbert, a child from a declining noble family, who drew the best base map.
The other one is John.
The three apprentices all spoke perfectly. Kunna's pronunciation was standard, and she could even speak fluently and coherently. The other two could only pronounce the words correctly; coherence still needed practice. But for Wood, this was enough.
…
The news that John was chosen as a magic apprentice hit Turner hard.
That day at the treatment station, news of John's recovery spread only to a small circle of people. The day after his recovery, John applied for leave from the academy to avoid any further incidents. After all, for a student like him who had already been at the academy for three consecutive years, there wasn't much left to learn in the classroom, so taking leave wouldn't delay anything.
Turner thought John was so depressed that he was staying at home and said to his friends, "If he doesn't come in two days, we will go visit him."
As a result, they were never seen again.
"Didn't I tell him not to go to this Wood's Mage Tower? I'll pay for him to come with us to Mentor Pritt's tower?"
"Huh?" His friends were a little surprised. "I thought you were joking."
"It's over. He's not here. Who will help me with my homework?" The magic academy does not assign homework, but Turner's father will check his learning progress.
"Who cured him?"
The fact that John had been cured at the Healing Station was no secret. Turner asked his servants to find out for him, and within a short while they found out the reason.
"You mean, if I hadn't dragged him out that day..." Turner grabbed his face in disbelief.
This matter also attracted the attention of the instructors at the magic academy, especially the therapist who had seen John at that time.
"Only 30 silver coins?" They were all a little surprised.
"This kind of mild curse is easy to remove. All you need to do is wait a while. However, human intervention is still a bit troublesome. Thirty silver coins won't even buy a bottle of decent potion."
"The Healing Inn, as I recall, is the shop that sent Saroyan to jail."
"The curse has been lifted. I'm very interested." A teacher raised his wand and tried to cast a spell on his colleague next to him. "It's said that she didn't use any medium, just cast a spell. I want to see it with my own eyes."
"roll!"
…
Eryi was opening the store to add new accumulators to the self-service savings machine. The 20 previously purchased special dispel accumulators (B) were simply not enough. They were rented out the day they were put on the shelves, and over the past few days, the skills in the self-service savings machine have continued to increase. The three main skills have been added:
Spring Breeze Secret: 662
Intermediate Healing: 5390
Dispel: 13950
Eryi now has 1.8 million energy points. The energy points he previously spent on the Dispel Storing Device have been recouped through a deposit. Seeing his profits rapidly increasing, Eryi decided to purchase 50 Dispel Storing Devices (B), 20 Spring Breeze Storing Devices (C), and 20 Intermediate Healing Storing Devices (B), for a total cost of 640,000 energy points.
Anyway, there will be a deposit after renting out the property. To some extent, it can be regarded as an interest-free unlimited loan, or simply a free loan.
[Congratulations, the energy value storage ball has been successfully converted.]
Eryi decided to teleport back to the Doomsday Plane to check the specific effect of the power storage ball.
Doomsday plane, Eryi’s personal lounge.
Yu Xin looked at the ball that appeared in front of her and channeled her supernatural powers into it according to Eryi's request.
Eryi opened Yu Xin's personal panel to check her status.
After a moment, a line of words appeared above the power storage ball: 50 points of power value have been entered, are you sure you want to continue transferring?
"Should I continue?" Yu Xin turned around and asked Eryi what he meant.
"Stop for now."
The ability storage ball is different from the magic storage ball. When magic value is injected, there will be corresponding loss.
Yu Xin injected 50 points of superpower value, but there were only 45 points of superpower in the superpower storage ball.
Ability Saving Ball: 45/30000
Healing ability 17/100 (minimum core requirement not met)
Wood ability 28/100
Ever since the energy value storage ball was successfully converted, Eryi can already see the energy value status of others.
Yu Xin [5th-level wood-type psychic/3rd-level healing-type psychic] has a total psychic value of 450. She has the highest total psychic value among all the psychics that Er Yi has seen so far.
Level 3 psychics are the most common now, with a total psychic value of around 80-100, while level 4 psychics have a total psychic value of 180.
"Try injecting the superpower again." Eryi decided to take out at least one superpower core and check the superpower content inside.
"good."
After Yu Xin injected 200 power points, the wood power finally became 112/100 and became removable.
Click to confirm and convert 100 points of wood-type ability into alien core.
An object resembling a zombie crystal core fell into Eryi's hands. Compared to the zombie crystal core, the alien core looked even clearer and more translucent.
"Try to absorb the energy inside." Er Yi handed the alien core to Yu Xin.
Yu Xin took it curiously and asked, "Is this a new product developed within the organization?" Like everyone else, she felt that there might be some organization behind the treatment station.
"Yes." Of course, this was because Eryi intentionally guided him.
The alien core disappeared in Yu Xin's hands, but only increased her ability value by 70 points.
Unlike the 10% loss of the Mana Storage Ball, the Power Storage Ball has a total loss of 37%.
The previously issued investigative report hadn't been withdrawn, and everyone in the safe zone knew the Treatment Station was preparing a major operation. The Treatment Station's official email address was bombarded with various cooperation offers.
The internet erupted in controversy, with countless posts, videos, and explanations circulating around the questionnaire. The issue also spread to the organization behind the treatment center.
Even within the central safe zone, many people were heading directly to the treatment station to inquire about relevant information. After consulting with Huo Eryi, Yu Xin posted a large poster at the entrance, stating that the project was under development and that details were available on the official website.
This was solid evidence for netizens, and photos of the front door of the treatment station went viral online.
If someone is willing to buy your ability points, what price would you be willing to sell your ability for one day?
Selling for money: 2%
1 level 1 crystal core: 5%
3 level 1 crystal cores: 27%
5 level 1 crystal cores: 43%
8 level 1 crystal cores: 11%
Do you dare to give more? : 12%
If your abilities could be restored to full value instantly, would you be willing to pay?
1 level 2 crystal core: 38%
1 level 3 crystal core: 57%
1 level 4 crystal core: 4%
1 level 5 crystal core: 1
According to statistical investigation, most of those who are willing to sell their superpowers are level 3 or below superpower users, as well as some superpower users who seldom go out.
Almost all Level 4 and higher psychics clicked the "Do you dare to give more?" option. They believed that by trying out their abilities, they could obtain what they wanted, without having to sell them.
However, the purchasing intention is the opposite. It is the psychics of level 4 and above who are more willing to pay a high price to buy the opportunity to replenish their psychics.
After Eryi sorted out the information, he sent a report to the central security zone headquarters, including the effectiveness of the supernatural energy storage ball.
Fifteen minutes later, a dozen neatly dressed public officials came to the treatment station and discussed the cost issue directly with Eryi.
"We've read the information you sent us, but we're not quite sure how this ability value should be measured. But we'd like to know if there's a minimum standard for purchasing ability values."
"It can be adjusted as needed. I suggest starting with a minimum of 10 points." The energy value storage device does not accept decimal points, and there will be additional losses if it is lower than 10.
The Central Security Zone has officially named the virtual currency 'Anbi'.
You can top up Anbi for Healing Coins at a 1:1 ratio, but Healing Coins cannot be withdrawn for Anbi. This is Eryi's requirement. Once Anbi is converted to Healing Coins, someone from the Central Safe Zone will settle the transaction once a day and pay the corresponding value of Crystal Cores to the Healing Station.
The purchase price of supernatural power value is 3 An coins for every 10 points of supernatural power value. The An coins are paid by the central security zone, and Eryi does not need to pay an additional cent.
The central safe zone will purchase an additional 80% of the alien cores produced by Eryi at a price of 1 for every 50 healing coins.
The remaining 20% was sold to the general public by the Central Security Zone, on behalf of Eryi, at a price of 200 Angolan coins each. The relevant payment was also prepaid by the Central Security Zone.
To purchase a nucleus from the Central Security Zone, users must pay Safecoins. Safecoins can be topped up with crystal cores, and for every 1,000 Safecoins worth of crystal cores topped up, users are eligible to purchase one nucleus.
Existing crystal cores are removed. New crystal cores can only be obtained by leaving the safe zone and fighting zombies. Those who rely solely on selling their abilities to survive without leaving the safe zone will not be able to obtain many crystal cores, and naturally, will find it difficult to purchase other cores. This is a more reasonable allocation of limited resources.
After confirming the cooperation project, Eryi signed the contract.
"For now, we only have one energy storage ball. Let's try its effect first." Er Yi said.
"Okay, no problem," the official asked. "Where would you like this to be stored?"
Eryi considered that the system management range of the treatment station was already 50, so she led the people out the door and walked to a position about 30 meters away from the treatment station: "Here."
If more people use this service in the future, it will not affect the internal operations of the treatment station at this location.
"Okay," the official agreed and made a phone call. Not long after, an instrument was brought down from the laboratory. It appeared to be a detached room about ten square meters.
"We may need to borrow your energy storage ball for a few days, mainly for data access..."
"No need." Er Yi directly placed the energy value storage ball inside the instrument.
[Detection successful, data access is possible, please enter parameters.] 008 was already prepared.
The researchers were speechless. This instrument was a product they had modified specifically for supernatural power detection, and they were already prepared for subsequent debugging. It was clearly Eryi's first time seeing this equipment. How could the people at the Healing Station have created a product that was so suitable?
There must be a spy.
The researchers were actually a little excited when they thought that there might be people from the organization behind the treatment station lurking in the institute.
They thought: If I perform better, maybe I will be selected.
The public official wiped his sweat and said, "We have already registered your ID and transferred 1,000 An coins in advance. We will open the relevant app for download starting tomorrow. You can check it out."
The official website of the Treatment Station and the official website of the Central Security Zone will publish an announcement about the acquisition of superpowers online, and will also include the rules for using the security coins and the download link for the app.
An Anbi exchanger, similar to a POS machine, is being distributed free of charge. Any business operating in the Central Security Zone can claim one by depositing 100 Anbi crystal cores. The app is currently only available for personal information queries, and transactions will be gradually enabled after testing.
The forums exploded again.
