After leaving the material shop, Su Lu repeats the address he got from the shop owner, his expression gradually turning into a smirk. âThereâs a problem!â
Why should the other party, who is nothing to him, hand him such important information?
Su Lu has always not refrained from speculating about others with the worst malice.
âBut⌠the face of the Disguiser, itâs very important! I guess I can only investigate for the time beingâŚanyway, rushing into it is no different from seeking death lâ
Su Lu walked around the black market again and sadly discovered that just as the shop owner had said before.
The rare items on his material list were not only unavailable in the other partyâs shop, but also unavailable in other shops.
In the end, Su Lu left the black market with regret.
At this time, his keen intuition made him aware of some greedy eyes watching him.
âWhat a pityâŚâ
He laughed, walked out of the exit, and stepped into the black fog.
The light in front of him grew brighter and brighter, and after a few steps at a swift pace, Su Lu found himself in a deep alleyway.
He tidied up his clothes, removed his hood, casually held his briefcase, and walked out of the alley, looking at the street signââQueenâs Roadâ.
âIt looks like I have entered the urban area?â
Su Lu didnât think much about it. The exit from the black market was random and could even span the entire Charles City. This rule seemed to be linked to the entire secret realm.
If one insists on changing it, the black market would no longer exist.
Therefore, any idea of trailing or assassinating is nothing but a joke.
âBut⌠even with such safety measures, many people die in the black market every year⌠because it can be marked, investigated⌠the transcendent side has countless ways!â
Su Luâs intuition spread inch by inch over his briefcase. Although he didnât notice anything strange, he still decided to immediately package everything in a new wrap and check all the materials carefully.
After a hectic time, Su Lu checked into a hotel.
Early morning.
Su Lu, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes and glanced over the nightstand subconsciously.
On it, there was a calendar.
âIn the blink of an eye, itâs already the Federated calendar year 279, July huh!â
He sighed, got up, washed up, and had a hearty breakfast in the restaurant next door.
The current Su Lu is considered a rich man, with nearly two thousand silver coins and more than a hundred Golden Dragons, he certainly wouldnât skimp in this respect.
âThe matter of the Disguiser is very important⌠but whatâs even more important, is myself!â
In the bedroom, Su Lu calmly glanced at his property bars:
Knowledge LV4], [Ancient Hebrew LV2], [Gulam Language LV2], [Mysterious
Knowledge LV2], [Strong LVI], [Agile Steps LVI]
Yarannisâs ancient language notes basically useless to me.â
âIn fact⌠Its ability to improve, may be due to the new research acquired from the local tribes of Gaosuo.â
âIn reality, I only had 350 experience points when I left the inner circle. Thanks to Rusâs contribution, I have accumulated quite a few. It might be beneficial to save themâŚ
After briefly sensing the vast gap between his current level of experience and the requirement for upgrading attributes, Su Lu decided to give up this plan.
Experience is valuable; he planned to save it for potential emergencies. After all, his circumstances were different from those in the inner circle where there was a steady flow of experience points.
Having some experience points at hand would be more useful than anything else.
âNext⌠itâs time to mix potions, striving to meet the requirements for being appointed as a [Magician] as soon as possible, while saving enough experience points to promote myself when necessary!â
âFurthermore, I need to collect materials, forge magical items, and remodel the Crowâs Mask. These can all be done concurrently.. â
After laying out his future plans, Su Lu turned his attention to the materials he had purchased.
His complete set of alchemy equipment he had left in the inner circle of Green Tree Castle, so he could only manage with the commonly used instruments for potion studies for the time being.
âBefore that, the first thing to do is to seal off the entire room⌠to ensure that my potion brewing will not be disturbed and that my mysterious power will not leak out.â
Transcendental forceâs contamination is terrifying, especially the poisonous potion of the Gaosuo people. In case of accidental leakage, Su Lu might be fine, but the civilians in the inn might not be.
After using a ritual to seal off his room from a mystical standpoint and hanging a âdo not disturbâ sign on the door, Su Lu stood in front of the long table with a calm expression.
The materials for brewing the âpoisonous potionâ were already laid out on the mahogany table.
âThe blood of the two-tailed lizard, seeds of the Bitter Ding flowerâŚâ
Su Lu recalled the potion formula with a peculiar expression, âI understand now⌠the way the Gaosuo people brew magic potions is different from the inner circle. It is more mysterious and brutal., reflecting their customs and behavioral patterns. â
This was a good thing for him, meaning he didnât need a special alchemy table, and even the tools he collected randomly were far more advanced than those of the primitive Gaosuo people.
Su Lu took a deep breath without further thought, set up the crucible, poured in the materials, and began to stir and cook.
At the same time, he started to draw a spirit world array around the crucible using the blood of the two-tailed lizard, and added the powder ground from the seeds of the Bitter Ding flower at several nodes.
âThe Spirit of the Insect that lingers in the Spirit WorldâŚâ
Su Lu then began to recite in Gulam Language with a hissing sound in his voice as if a giant python was hissing.
If his Gulam Language hadnât reached the LV2 level, even if he was fluent in writing, he might not have been able to recite it in the form of a chant.
âIn the name of Su Lu Pottery!â
âI summon you!â
âFind the way back with the blood of your favored creature⌠The scent of Bitter Ding flower will be your guide!â
Yes, what Su Lu was performing was a ritual to summon a creature from the Spirit World!
For a [Mystical Scholar], the biggest challenge in Gaosuo native wizardâs
potion brewing seemed like a walk in the park.
Amid the flow of inspirations, Su Lu immediately felt the change in the Spirit World.
An odd creature from the Spirit World, resembling a caterpillar, but with a human face on the head, stretched half of its body, curiously, from mid-air towards the boiling cauldron.
Smack!
Right at that moment, Su Lu grabbed the caterpillar-creature with his inspirations and press it into the boiling pot.
Flurries!
The spirit fire burned, and a faint, almost non-existent cry spread around..
