Chapter 148 Spirit Eye Wizard
Chapter 148
"It is indeed him... He is really... haunting me..."
"He found me with the seal of the Azure Sky Spirit..."
Lin En looked at the pieces of golden scale fragments floating in front of him, his face a little gloomy.
It is not difficult to guess that the alien creature must have successfully tracked him down with the help of the fragments of the golden scale.
His thoughts raced as he tried to work out what had happened based on the information he currently had.
Lin En guessed that the alien creature must have found him first by relying on some connection between the golden scale fragments.
The people of Furnace Stone have been tracking the traces of this "big fish" from another world, and then followed the trail of the alien creature and finally came to the Mechanical City.
Then, two fish, one large and one small, that escaped from this [landscape] were both noticed by the Furnace Stone.
Lynn wasn't sure whether the people of Furnace Stone had captured the alien creatures.
But what is certain is that he himself has inadvertently exposed himself to the surveillance of the Crucible Stone.
This alien creature is really harmful to people! The only good news is that Lin En has received verbal assurance from the Warhammer Master's disciple, the Great Wizard Chris, so there is no need to worry about safety for the time being.
But, Lynn is not used to relying on others. Mountains will fall if you rely on them, and people will run away if you rely on them.
After all, he didn't have a close relationship with Chris, and Chris's junior was Davin, not Lynn.
Her words have some credibility, but not much...
Therefore, Lin En prepared to make a contingency plan, prepare for the worst, and then seek a way out.
"The reason why the alien creature came to me was because of the scale fragment in my hand..."
Lin En waved his hand, and the spirit of the blue sky suddenly emitted a hazy green light, surrounding the golden fragments, as if it was binding them tightly in an invisible cage.
The fragments of the scales trembled in the light, but offered no resistance.
When Lynn had fled from [The Landscape], he was worried that the alien creature would go back on its word after restoring the integrity of the scales and kill everyone at once.
So Lin En only gave the other party a part of the fragments, and he still had a part of the scale fragments in his hand to use as a precaution.
It was not until later, during his time in the Mechanical City, that Lin En accidentally discovered the hidden information in the citizen token.
Only then did he understand that this golden scale was definitely the most top-notch treasure. At the same time, he began to have some greedy thoughts in his mind and wanted to complete the scale.
However, Lin En also knew that if he wanted to complete the balance, he would have to at least step onto the level of Morning Star Wizard to be qualified to do it.
However, let alone the Road to the Stars, even on the path to becoming a first-level wizard, Lin En had only been making steady progress for a short while.
I have just spent a relatively stable half year in the Mechanical City and have gotten used to this peaceful life.
And the crises of alien creatures and Furnace Stone are about to follow.
These two are much more dangerous than Marco, and Lin En cannot handle them with just his citizenship.
At this moment, in an absolutely calm state, Lin En thought about it and made a plan to abandon this part of the scale fragment.
Although this golden scale is good, his current level is too low, and he cannot use it even if he gets it.
Instead of doing this, it is better to make a deal:
Whether it is giving the Furnace Stone or solving the Furnace Stone's pursuit.
Or he could return the scale fragments to the alien creature so that he could resume a stable life.
However, no matter which side you choose, you will be threatened by the other side...
"A good blacksmith must have strong tools himself... If I were a Morning Star Wizard... No, even if I were a Level 3 Great Wizard, I wouldn't have to worry about my safety like I do now..."
Lin En shook his head, a helpless smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
He put away the Spirit of the Blue Sky and casually took out his citizen token.
With a faint flash of light, the scene in the laboratory suddenly disappeared, and the virtual space in front of him gradually appeared.
Lynn's eyes were focused on her personal information.
"Spiritual strength: 113; Physical fitness: 10."
He recited it silently, thinking about it in his mind.
More than five months have passed since he became an official wizard.
In these five months, his mental power has increased by 13 points. This result is simply unimaginable for other wizards.
After all, the apprentice-level potions are affordable for everyone and can be steadily increased to around 110 points.
But being able to afford it is one thing, and refining and absorbing it is another.
Others don't have Lin's talent, where the more potion they drink, the faster the refining speed becomes.
Every time he drank the potion, Lin En's refining speed was faster than others, and it almost got faster and faster the more he drank.
Working hard on drugs is also a form of “effort” in the true sense!
However, as his own drug resistance reached its maximum and he fed the potion to Ifgrid instead, Lynn discovered a new problem.
That was his original improvement speed, about three points of mental power per month.
But in the past three months, after his mental power increased to 109 points, the rate of improvement slowed down significantly. In the past two and a half months, his mental power only increased by four points.
The time required to refine potions slowed down, and the amount of potions absorbed each month increased, but the improvement in mental strength became less and less.
In this situation, Lin En guessed that the potency of the potion used during the apprenticeship stage was not enough.
He expected that the human body and Ivgrid taking the potion together would double their mental strength, up to a maximum of 120 points.
But now, he has lowered his expectations to 118 points, or even lower...
Lynn shifted his gaze away from his personal information and fixed it on a shopping cart floating frame in the virtual space.
The city of machinery has even created a virtual world, so naturally things like online shopping have also come into being.
Lin En doesn't have many magic stones, although he now has a stable income as a researcher.
But in the past few months, he had spent almost all of his money on buying potion ingredients, refining potions, and taking drugs.
There are simply not enough magic stones, and we can barely maintain a balance between income and expenditure.
Because of this, although Lin En's realm has broken through to that of a formal wizard, he has not fully met the standards of a formal wizard.
Witchcraft, meditation, etc. are fine, as he has the relevant memories of Maple Tree, even though there is some knowledge of Maple Tree that cannot be revealed due to the contract.
Even so, Lin En still gained a vast amount of knowledge as a first-level wizard and slowly updated his witchcraft skills.
But apart from knowledge, the equipment on him, except for the space ring on his hand which came from the Lord of Nightshadow Castle, was almost nothing like a formal wizard-level equipment.
The reason is very simple, because I have no money and cannot afford it...
But fortunately, this time his thesis reward was a full 100,000 magic stones.
This was enough for him to buy some much-needed items and fill the gaps in his equipment.
Especially, surrounded by powerful enemies, alien creatures and furnace stones are eyeing him covetously, he needs more matching equipment to improve his combat effectiveness.
He waved his hand, and a virtual light screen immediately appeared before his eyes. A wide variety of goods appeared on it one by one, which was simply dazzling.
All items are sorted by category, and you can select the desired item by index.
"What I need most is external things..."
Thinking this, Lin En opened the item-related categories.
A wizard's combat effectiveness can be simply divided into two major factors: internal and external.
Internal factors are of course closely related to the wizard himself, including mental strength, physical fitness, witchcraft and so on.
As a natural wizard, Lynn's extraordinary plant, Ifgrid, is also an internal factor.
External factors are external objects, such as demonized items, puppet creations, mechanical armor and the like.
Lin En’s space ring is also an external object.
A high-quality external object can greatly enhance the combat power of a wizard.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
For example, when Lynn was an apprentice, he relied on the Flower Language Heart given to him by his teacher Rosalind to greatly improve his fighting ability.
If it weren't for the powerful defense provided by the Flower Language Heart, he probably wouldn't have survived until today.
"Level 3 black gold mechanical armor, worth 150,000 magic stones, made of deep black gold, with extremely strong defense. After testing, it was hit by five level 2 attack spells in a short period of time, but the dummy inside did not suffer any damage from the spells. Recommended for: Level 3 apprentices to level 2 wizards."
"Blood Blade Battle Axe, worth 120,000 magic stones, extremely sharp, and can easily cut through gray gold metal materials. It comes with two first-level attack spells, and has fire and earth element bonuses of 350% and 220% respectively. Recommended for: first-level wizards and second-level wizards."
Lin En selected equipment that could be used by a first-level wizard according to relevance.
Then a series of equipment props suddenly appeared, with prices ranging from high to low, which dazzled him.
"I only have a little over 100,000 magic stones in total. I'm going to look for some relatively cheap items..."
Thinking this, Lynn opened the index and checked the box.
Moreover, he also made trade-offs, giving priority to filling his own shortcomings.
He is not short of defensive means now, including his own first-level defensive magic "Be Void and Keep Quiet" and Ifgrid's first-level defensive magic "Echo of Vitality".
Ordinary first-level attack spells can hardly break through two first-level defense spells at the same time, so it is difficult to hurt him directly.
"It's meaningless to continue strengthening my defense. Even if I really have a turtle shell, the enemy I'm facing is still too strong and can be easily broken..."
Thinking this way, Lin En did not continue to strengthen his defense or attack methods, but chose to improve his escape first.
After all, since you can't defeat them or defend against them, you can only prioritize escaping.
Lin En searched from top to bottom for escape equipment that met his requirements.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he saw a pair of shoes that were sparkling with stars and very expensive.
"Starfall Shoes, price: 75,000 magic stones... It has three charges. Once triggered, the speed will increase to that of a meteorite, faster than lightning... You can collect starlight to charge... Recommended for: Level 1 and Level 2 wizards..."
And Lynn's eyes were focused on the last sentence.
"Anything produced by the Warhammer master must be a masterpiece."
He has been reading the relevant content for a long time, and all kinds of escape props are similar. But this pair of Starfall Boots is related to the Warhammer Master?
"Then choose this one!"
But Lin En remembered that the things made by the Warhammer Master were of very good quality. This could be seen from the fact that Daven relied on that tattered armor to walk from the mortal kingdom to the mechanical city.
Money was spent like water, and 75,000 magic stones disappeared in the blink of an eye. Even Lin En felt a little heartbroken.
The remaining 20,000 magic stones must be spent sparingly and allocated to attack items, wearable items, etc.
After spending these 100,000 magic stones, Lin En must ensure that his equipment is updated to the first-level wizard stage, and it would be best if there were no mistakes.
…………………………
Thanks to a summons from the great wizard Chris, Lynn's heart was filled with anxiety and he felt the danger coming.
So much so that as soon as he got home, he would directly pick out and buy all kinds of props and items.
On the other side, the person who cares about Lin En more than anyone else, or that existence, has arrived at the Mechanical City! The seventh floor of the Mechanical City is where the high-level people of the Mechanical City live.
In a certain magnificent hall, the atmosphere was extremely solemn.
The interior of the hall is magnificent, and the surrounding walls are carved with exquisite reliefs.
Inside the hall, lights flickered, and brilliant energy flowed through the air, illuminating the entire space as if it were daytime.
At this moment, there were two figures standing in the hall, and there was a very strong sense of oppression on them.
There were many unique rays of light flashing on their bodies, like indestructible shields.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that each of them had four different protective shields.
Obviously, they all have four magic protections. These two are actually two fourth-level Morning Star Wizards! Their eyes are extremely sharp, and they are now looking at the unique items in the hall.
Those objects are neither mechanical creations nor have any mechanical connection.
It is not an item that traditional wizards would use, and there is not the slightest energy factor fluctuation within it.
They exude a quiet power, as if they come from another world, with a sacred aura.
There is a huge mural that depicts an ancient god with a solemn and sacred face, surrounded by the radiance of countless souls.
The murals use ancient characters to tell stories about how gods educate people and impart wisdom.
Next to the mural is an exquisite scepter with a dazzling gem inlaid on the top and surrounded by divine words.
If that text is translated into wizard language, it would be: "God loves the world."
In the center of the hall, there stands a broken sculpture of a god.
The sculpture shows a god with his arms outstretched, as if to embrace the whole world.
Although the sculpture is broken and its complete shape is almost unrecognizable, it still inspires awe.
"These are some of the gods' creations we brought back..."
A Morning Star Wizard spoke lightly, looked at the Morning Star Wizard next to him, and said so.
The other Morning Star Wizard narrowed his eyes and looked back and forth at the many creations of the gods.
If Lin En were here, he would definitely be extremely surprised at the face of this Morning Star Wizard.
Because this Morning Star Wizard was wearing a black robe, had a pair of extremely unique eyes, with only whites in his pupils, and his face was extremely cold.
Lin En was not unfamiliar with this person. He could even be said to be quite familiar with him. He used to be an apprentice under the other party.
This person was actually the master of the furnace, the Spirit Eye Wizard!
