Chapter 395: Master of Magical Potion
In the next few days, Ryan basically immersed himself in witchcraft tailoring.
Audrey and Alicia were curious about why Ryan suddenly became addicted to witchcraft tailoring, but they did not dare to disturb him casually, and could only bury this doubt in their hearts.
As the experience points of making the "Apprentice Robe" began to decrease, Ryan wanted to go to Jacqueline again to ask if there were more advanced witchcraft tailoring drawings, but then he thought about it and felt that it was not appropriate.
After all, his improvement speed was too shocking.
And it would not be long before he would ask the other party for the drawings.
Instead of doing this, he might as well go directly to the material exchange office to have a look.
Sure enough, Ryan spent 100 contribution points at the material exchange office and exchanged for a new witchcraft tailoring blueprint - "Clean Robe".
Compared with the previous "Apprentice Robe", this "Clean Robe" is more difficult to make, but the quality is also higher, and it can be regarded as barely entering the level of intermediate witchcraft props.
When it comes to the classification of witchcraft props, it is not only linked to the number, practicality and power of zero-level witchcraft, but also has considerations such as the difficulty of production and the rarity of materials, which is relatively complicated.
In general, this evaluation is similar to the five-dimensional diagram that Ryan had seen in his previous life.
In addition, Ryan also discovered that after having the new core skill "Focus", he found that it was particularly effective when using it to learn new witch pattern tailoring drawings.
After turning on "Focus", the whole person felt that his thoughts were particularly clear, and when he started sewing, he was also as if he had divine help.
Some places that originally required others to point out, Ryan could figure it out by himself after a little thought.
After several attempts, the system prompt also sounded:
[You have made the intermediate witchcraft prop "Clean Robe", and the relevant comprehension has improved! ]
[You have comprehended a new skill - Clean Robe]
[Your skill in making Clean Robes has been improved, and the experience value is +10]
[You have successfully made an intermediate witchcraft prop "Clean Robe", and the witch pattern tailor professional experience value is +103]
In Ryan's new mansion.
"Anna, try it." Ryan handed a white wizard robe to Anna.
Anna's pretty face was obviously happy. She looked at Ryan with her big beautiful eyes and said, "Ryan, is this for me?"
"Well, this is the first intermediate witchcraft item I have completed, the 'Clean Robe'." Ryan introduced with a smile.
"As long as you inject a little bit of mental power, it will trigger two zero-level witchcrafts, 'Dust Removal' and 'Decontamination', which can keep the robe clean and tidy at any time."
When Anna put it on, she found that not only the two zero-level witchcrafts solidified on the robe were very useful, but also the whole clean robe fit very well.
"Hey, Ryan, how do you know my size?"
"This... After all, I have measured it." Ryan spread his palm and said.
Ryan's words immediately made Anna blush. She gently hit Ryan's chest, and then the two of them played and frolicked intimately for a while.
"Dong Dong Dong!"
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the study.
Ryan knew who was outside the door as soon as he felt it.
"Come in!"
This time, Olena came with Tatia, who was wearing a tall and straight Major General uniform.
The two first looked at Anna with a rosy face, and then looked at each other's white robes with traces of wrinkles, and couldn't help but blush.
This. Lord Ryan is too...
In the broad daylight.
In the study.
"Ryan, then you go first."
The eyes of the two young women, who were experienced people, immediately made Anna more shy. After nodding to the two quickly, she threw down a word and quickly left the study.
"Hey, both of you, please sit down." Ryan coughed to cover up his embarrassment.
"Sir Ryan, I came here to tell you something."
"The Durham family said that the last unfavorable behavior towards you was entirely Greenwood's personal behavior. Now, including the butler Owen, they have been fired."
"They proposed that they are willing to compensate you for your losses last time. Regarding this matter, the headquarters wants me to ask your opinion."
"The opinion of the headquarters is my opinion." Ryan thought about it and said something politically correct.
Through his understanding during this period of time, he naturally knew that the relationship involved was complicated, including conservatives and reformists, the demands of various imperial wealthy families, and so on, and there were also some other deep-seated reasons.
Even the Durham family has an imperial guardian behind it.
Of course, it doesn't mean that this matter is over, it's just that the time has not come yet.
From another perspective, even if Ryan wants to confront it head-on at this time, he must have the strength to suppress the guardian with the title "Storm", otherwise, it would be ridiculous and overestimating his own abilities.
As for the imperial guardian not being able to take action, there are also prerequisites.
Since you have already targeted someone else's family, it will naturally be considered a provocation to the Imperial Guardian. It is reasonable for the other party to take action against you.
In addition, in Ryan's view, he may not only have to face the Drum family.
As a wealthy family of the empire for hundreds of years, the other party has a complex network of relationships, so Ryan has to consider the friendly forces behind and horizontally.
And now, he is considered to be a member of the Imperial Reformers and the Sword Bearer Headquarters, which means that his decision will be expanded, and he naturally needs to respect the opinions of General Augustus and Marshal Alfred.
"Mr. Ryan, thank you for your understanding and support of the headquarters. We will strive for as much benefit as possible for you." Tatia smiled and said.
She naturally understood what Ryan meant.
Obviously, the powerful Lord Ryan in front of him has a clear understanding of the situation.
Although this time the conservatives have to make concessions in many aspects, it will not hurt them.
"By the way, Lord Tatia, I want to ask, how did the Durham family explain why they attacked me?"
"And the butler Owen, since he was fired by the Durham family, can we find him?"
At this time, Tatia, the female major general, looked at Ryan with a somewhat special look and said:
"Well, according to them, Greenwood thought your female companion was very beautiful, so he had a conflict with you."
Ryan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he smiled dumbly.
Sure enough, the Durham family would not tell the truth. They concealed the fact that Anna was an elf.
So, does it mean that they have not given up? Or are there other reasons, such as not wanting to involve the people behind?
"As for the butler Owen, we investigated these two days and found that he seemed to have evaporated. After leaving the Durham family mansion, he disappeared. We suspect that he is no longer in this world."
Ryan nodded.
Sure enough, for such a wealthy family in the empire, some obvious loopholes are difficult to find.
"By the way, what about the Noble Court and the Isoderei School where Harold is?" Ryan thought for a while and asked.
"The Noble Court has been dealt with. The young judge on that day was deceived by some people and has been demoted. As for the Isoderei School..."
"The headquarters has sent a letter to inquire. The other party means that Harold was also deceived and a victim."
"He is also a victim?" Ryan raised his eyebrows and said.
"Well, as a large school, the influence that the headquarters can exert on the Isoder School is relatively limited. Even if we mobilize high-level connections to suppress it, as long as the other party does not betray the empire, logically speaking, the other party will not suffer much loss."
"Moreover, once this is done, the other party may become more resentful of Lord Ryan, causing the other party to use some secret means to deal with you."
"Of course, our current approach cannot guarantee that the other party will not use secret means, but the possibility is lower."
"For you, if you go out recently, you still have to be more vigilant. And if you are in the imperial capital, you basically don't have to worry."
Ryan nodded, expressing his understanding.
Large schools have a relatively complete wizard heritage, strong overall strength, and there are epic-level strongmen at the level of imperial guardians in the school.
If the other party is still efficient for the empire, if he is the emperor of the empire, he will not deal with them because of some trivial matters of the other party.
But from another perspective, this is not a bad thing. When he is strong enough one day, he can also act individually and go to the other party's school station to communicate.
"Then Sir Ryan, if there is nothing else, I will go back and negotiate the compensation with the Drum family."
"Okay, Sir Tatia." Ryan nodded and smiled.
"You're welcome, Sir Ryan." After that, the female major general Tatia nodded to Olena and left first.
——At
the same time.
Cyrodiil Plateau.
The headquarters of the Isolder School, Nilheim.
As a large wizard school, the influence of the Isolder School in Nilheim runs through all aspects. It can be said that the establishment of the city of Nilheim is basically to serve the Isolder School.
In the center of Nilheim, in a magnificent hall.
Several wizards in khaki wizard robes are solemnly reporting something to an old man with several earth element shields around him.
On the ground beside them, there was a corpse that had been collected. If Ryan was there, he would have recognized it at first glance. It was the 'sculptor' Harold that he had killed.
"Master, Lord Harold died tragically. As the most powerful person in our Isoderei School who is most likely to enter the epic level, are we just going to pretend that this incident did not happen?" One of the wizards, who seemed to have a very good relationship with Harold, was generously stating,
"Yes, Master, this is also a serious blow to the reputation of our school. This matter cannot be let go!" Another wizard echoed.
"Enough! Harold brought this upon himself. As the guardian of the empire, I cannot attack an imperial swordsman."
"In addition, who in the school do you think is absolutely sure to win?"
"If there is, I can agree to your request and send someone to duel with this young man named Ryan in the name of the Isoderei School." The old man said in a deep voice.
"This..."
Several people looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Obviously, their strength is still inferior to Harold. Even Harold, who is known as the strongest legend, is not a match for Ryan.
If they duel with the other party, they will not only lose, but also the reputation of the Isoderre School will be frustrated again.
"Master, is this matter over?" A wizard asked unwillingly.
"I will handle this matter." The old man waved his hand, indicating that they could leave.
After several people left, the old man thought for a long time, sighed heavily, and said to a male wizard beside him:
"Malcolm, help me contact the Tutkarsh School. I may need their help this time."
Hearing the word Tutkarsh, Malcolm's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said: "Okay, Master."
You know, not all wizard schools within the empire obey the orders of the empire. Some secret wizard schools, groups and organizations have always existed.
The Tutkarsh School, which is mainly based on the necromancy system, is one of them.
The other party is also on the Cyrodiil Plateau, but the main activity area is located to the west of the plateau, that is, wandering near the westernmost territory of the empire.
It's just that in the past thousand years, the other party seems to have been induced by the evil god. In addition to the normal research on the dead spirit system, many school wizards are said to have turned to the worship of evil gods.
——The
imperial capital Tamriel.
In the next few days, from time to time, the duke or marquis family sent invitations to banquets or dances in Ryan's mansion.
Many of them are still conservative nobles, of course, more are innovative noble families.
The purpose is also obvious, wanting to make friends with him, the rising upstart.
However, Ryan thought about it and declined.
If the beautiful woman Jennifer was there, she could participate as a representative, but for Ryan himself, participating in these banquets and activities is quite time-consuming and energy-consuming. At this critical moment, it is not worth the loss.
Because his status this time is all from his own strength.
This is his foundation, not anything else.
Perhaps, after he enters the level of a third-level crystal wizard and changes his job to a 'dragon vein wizard', Ryan will consider participating in some banquets for socializing appropriately.
At this time, Ryan had upgraded the Witch Pattern Tailor (Superb) from lv1 to lv7, gaining 6 attribute points and 6 skill points.
This allowed Ryan to have 20 attribute points and 7 skill points remaining. As for the gold skill points, it remained at 95.
"7 skill points, 5 points away from 12."
"If you consider learning two third-level witchcrafts at the same time and quickly turning them into combat power, you need 24 skill points."
"For now, even if I can make a new high-level witchcraft item, 'Breeze Robe', it is difficult to upgrade the Witch Pattern Tailor to lv10 or above. The gap from 24 skill points is too big." "In this case,
I have to ask Olena to arrange it through official channels, and I will find time to go to the Royal Pharmacist Association." Ryan thought.
In the evening, when Ryan returned to the mansion, he found Anna chatting with a familiar figure who had not been seen for a long time.
"Miss Alyosha?"
"Sir Ryan, I finally see you again."
"Sir Ryan, if I hadn't heard that a genius had emerged from the Sword Bearer Headquarters and defeated Harold the Sculptor, I wouldn't have known you were in the Imperial Capital!"
"Also, why didn't you contact me when you came to the Imperial Capital?" Seeing Ryan appear, Alyosha's beautiful eyes lit up, and she asked three questions in a slightly annoyed manner.
"By the way, Sir Ryan, where did you find this lovely girl? Miss Anna is so lovely." Alyosha held Anna's hand and said.
Anna didn't seem to be embarrassed, and the two seemed to be chatting very well.
"I'm sorry, Miss Alyosha, I've been busy recently. It's my omission." Ryan smiled and said.
Seeing Alyosha, Ryan suddenly realized that it didn't seem necessary for Olena to contact anything through official channels, because Alyosha himself was an official researcher at the Royal Pharmacist College.
After a round of greetings, Ryan learned that the Stewart family to which Alyosha belonged was also the Duke family of the Imperial Capital.
"Hey, is Lord Ryan also so interested in potion making?"
"With your status as a fine gold sword bearer, I can take you directly to the headquarters of the Royal Pharmacist Association to have a look." Alyosha agreed to Ryan's request.
"How about tomorrow? I'll take you to the association headquarters in the afternoon, and in the evening, you can bring Miss Anna to my place for dinner together, how about that?"
"I think my father would be very happy to see you." Alyosha invited.
"Thank you, Miss Alyosha."
"Okay, that's troublesome. I haven't seen Special Envoy Javier for a long time, so I should pay a visit." Ryan thought for a while, then smiled and nodded and agreed.
The next afternoon.
Ryan followed Alyosha to the headquarters of the Royal Pharmacist Association, which is located on the second ring of the imperial capital.
After checking the sword bearer's credentials, Ryan passed through the heavy oak door and saw more than a dozen three-meter-tall human-shaped stone sculptures.
"Sir Ryan, these are all famous pharmacists in the history of the association."
"That's the herb cultivation room, and that's the laboratory." Alyosha pointed to the two most eye-catching quaint multi-story buildings on the left and right and said.
"Sir Ryan, which one do you want to go to first?"
"Why don't we go to the laboratory first?" Ryan said after a little thought.
Compared with herb cultivation, potion making may be more relevant to his subsequent job change clues in Ryan's opinion.
"Okay, Sir Ryan, then let's go to my mentor Master Cabrera to take a look."
"Okay."
Soon, the two came to the door of a laboratory on the second floor. The door of the laboratory was ajar. Through the crack in the door, Ryan could clearly see that the inside was a huge laboratory similar to the lecture hall in his previous life.
Seven or eight pharmacists in robes were making something on several long tables.
In a single room separated by transparent glass at the back of the laboratory, an old man with a white goatee was holding a dropper and a beaker, concentrating on making some kind of potion.
"Sir Ryan, the mentor seems to be making advanced potions. Let's go and take a look." Alyosha said excitedly.
Advanced potions?
This reminded Ryan of something.
He took advanced potions when he entered the extraordinary.
Could it be that Master Cabrera in front of him was making that?
Ryan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, quite interested, and quickly followed Alyosha to stand a few meters outside the glass wall and observe carefully.
"Sir Ryan, this is the Shadow Leopard potion, mentor." Alyosha whispered to the side.
A few minutes later, the system prompt suddenly appeared:
[Ding! The host is detected to be in contact with potion making, triggering the subsequent job transfer of Breaking Bad (Extraordinary) - Potion Master (Legendary)! 】
【The prerequisites for changing to Potion Master (Legendary) are: 1. Level 5 or above of a supernatural potion-related profession; 2. Spirit 30 points or above; 3. Master the production of three or more advanced potions. The current conditions are not met! Failed to change to Potion Master (Legendary)! 】
Seeing the system prompt in front of him, Ryan couldn't help laughing.
"Finally, I've waited for the follow-up job change prompt information. It's not easy." Ryan sighed in his heart.
Thinking back to when he was in Mayest County, he changed to Breaking Bad (Supernatural), but until now, when he came to the imperial capital Tamriel, he got the follow-up job change information.
"However, the formulas of these three or more advanced potions are probably not easy to make."
"But it's okay to have the job change prompt, so there's no rush in the next one or two days."
That night, Ryan brought Anna to the Stewart family mansion and had dinner with Javier and Alyosha. The guests and hosts were very happy.
The next morning.
"Lord Ryan, this is a major event that happened in the territories of the empire this week." Olena handed Ryan a piece of intelligence.
After Ryan took it, he quickly read it.
"In Westminster Province, the Limb Reattachment Cult created a tragedy in Wallis County, killing and injuring nearly a thousand people. Currently, the Westminster Sword Bearers Branch is still handling it."
"In Savoy Province, the Steel Bristle Wild Boar Tribe was bewitched and launched attacks on several surrounding towns."
"In Moselle Province, the Ancient Mother Tree Cult revived and attacked the Dark Cave in the Secret Realm of the Empire, and triggered a large number of ancient violent species in the Dark Cave to attack the surrounding towns. Currently."
"."
I don't know if it was instructed by the gods behind him, but Ryan found that the activities of the cults were becoming more and more frequent.
After a rough look, except for a few involving alien races, most of them were related to cults. In a short period of time, the major cults created multiple tragedies in various provinces of the empire!
"Don't we have our insiders in the cults? If we deal with it after the incident breaks out, there will be a lot of casualties." Ryan frowned and said.
"Yes, but it is very difficult to do this." Olena thought for a while and said.
"Because the initiation ceremony of the cult is very meticulous, there are almost no loopholes to be exploited. Apart from other things, there are more than one level of mind-confusing magic that needs to be passed, which is similar to the effect of truth serum."
"In addition, there are other constraints. After the spies have participated in the prayer ceremony many times, even the most determined people will gradually lose themselves in it."
"If a projection of a god descends during a large-scale ceremony, it will be even more unsolvable."
"I see." Ryan nodded.
No wonder the Empire is slow to realize most of the activities of the cult, or it is a bit passive. The problem lies here.
The method of "Infernal Affairs" does not work, at least on the cult side.
"By the way, Lord Ryan, this is what you mentioned to me last time. You want to take on some specific tasks related to dragons or dragonborn."
"I have also collected and screened these days. These are some dragon creatures that have appeared in various provinces of the empire and cannot be solved by local branches. You can take a look."
Olena handed a thick stack of information to Ryan with both hands.
"The one at the top is the strongest dragon creature according to your opinion. However, I think you can consider the second and third dragon creatures." Olena said tactfully.
Thank you Stolt for the reward of 700 starting coins!
