Chapter 15 Extraordinary Ring: Noble Red
Chapter 15 Extraordinary Ring: Noble Red
After the two parties tacitly demonstrated their abilities, goals and wishes, Aiwass and Shadow Demon reached a temporary agreement.
As the shadow fiend sneaked back into Aiwass' shadow again, the shadow that spread like mud in the entire bar was sucked back into the shadow under Aiwass.
Like a swimming pool with its drain opened, the shallow lake of shadow soon became "dry".
The warm winter sun shone in again, filling the room of the bar.
As if being covered in that damp shadow just now was just an illusion.
--very good.
Aiwass breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, the four most important things are done.
Completed revenge for Aiwass, killed the "friend" who betrayed him; successfully eliminated his own evidence; obtained the next step of investigation clues; awakened and appeased the shadow demon.
Now, it's time to open treasure chests happily!
Aiwass listened carefully, and found that Hayina was still looking for it below and did not go upstairs.
——It’s time to lick the bag!
He rubbed his hands impatiently, and began to search for his spoils.
Aiwass quickly found a small round box the size of a thumb, which looked like cooling oil.A crescent moon pattern with a human face is etched on it, and a line of small characters "1886-03-071, Living Silver Workshop" is marked below.
This thing looks familiar to him.
This is a dream tincture.A specialty of the Star Antimony Kingdom.
"Good stuff. A good start."
The corners of Aiwass' mouth raised slightly, and he put it into his pocket casually.
Drunken Dream Tincture is a potion that can stabilize dreams and anesthetize the body so that it is not easy to wake up from fright. It is the alchemy product of the path of balance.It can also be used as an anesthetic for surgery, but its main use is as an auxiliary drug to enhance the success rate during advanced stages.
Put it in Xianxia novels, it is about the same as Zhu Ji Dan.When the level is low, Jia's breakthrough success rate is quite impressive.
Drunk Dream Tincture is known among players as "small promotion medicine", which can increase the success rate of the promotion ceremony.Probably similar to the kind of potion that can increase the success rate of strengthening in classical MMORPGs that can strengthen and build equipment.
In terms of setting, to advance to a professional level, one must enter a dream and hold a complicated dream ritual with a high failure rate.But in the game, it is determined by a cold promotion success rate, preparing some special rituals or materials can increase the success rate.
If it succeeds, it means that after a burst of special effects, the advancement is successful, and the upper limit of the professional level is increased by ten levels.Then three entries pop up for you to choose one of the three.
This is the characteristic of the path obtained when the promotion is successful this time.
If it fails, it will return to level 19.If the player is out of materials, just prepare the ceremony again to advance; for NPCs, if the promotion fails, they will have to wait for a longer and longer cooldown that increases with the level, at least half a month.
Veronica is now a level 19 demon scholar, and she is about to advance; or she may have failed several times, so she prepared drunken dream for herself.
Judging from the number of ritual spells she has mastered, she should stay at the second energy level for a long time - in the case of the level cap being locked, the skill level can still be improved as usual, but the occupation will not continue to increase the level up.
It is not very difficult for Aiwass to advance from the first energy level to the second energy level, and he is basically sure to succeed.I don't need it just yet.
It can be used when he is promoted from level 19 to level 20 later.
And because Aiwass is going both ways, he has to eat two servings.
Drunken Dream Tincture itself is not a particularly rare potion, so there is no need to cherish it.Its price in Star Antimony is not too high, only 46 white crown coins.It's just that it is purely handmade by alchemists, so the supply is insufficient, so it needs to be reserved and the purchase is limited.
And most importantly, it will be difficult to buy this medicine in Avalon for the time being.
Because since two years ago, the Star Wars Kingdom has become the enemy of Avalon.
All alchemy products from the Star Kingdom are restricted from being exported to Avalon; correspondingly, Avalon does not allow the import of alchemy products from the Star Kingdom, and also does not allow the country's minerals and timber to be exported to Star.
The Drunken Dream Tincture currently on the market in Avalon, except for a few leftovers...should only be stockpiled cattle that can be ordered at ten times the price.
Five hundred white coins is just the starting price.
This is a price that Haina can't imagine.It is about ten years' wages of ordinary workers.
Aiwass can't afford it.
He just didn't want scalpers to make so much money so easily.
He didn't intend to leave this thing to the Supervision Bureau - even if the Supervision Bureau got it, it would only resell it at a high price.There is even a high probability that it was sold to the Moriarty family.
Because everyone knows that Master Aiwass has recently embarked on the extraordinary path and became a priest.It is also necessary to reserve drunken dream tincture in advance.
——Then there is no need to let the middleman earn the difference.
But unfortunately, after finding Drunken Dreams, Aiwass couldn't find any good things.
He only found some ritual materials.
But that's all human material, like a placenta, or a baby's scalp.Not only is it worthless, but he also has no use for it.
Aiwass had taken an oath not to use materials of his own kind for rituals - and he certainly disliked such cruelty.So he didn't take them away.Instead, leave them on Veronica as her incriminating evidence.
The red robe she was wearing was actually valuable.
...But Aiwass felt that he should not be able to pick it off.
Leaving aside that this is women's clothing, Aiwass can't wear it; and Veronica didn't wear any clothes underneath, so she just took off the clothes, which is somewhat abnormal...
Of course, it was useless for him to get the red robe.
In the game, players have no identity, so they can get into the association through the red robe.But he is now Aiwass Moriarty, and he simply cannot pass the review of the Noble Red Society.
If he really succeeds in joining, then he will be threatened by the association in turn.Because once the matter was exposed, Aiwass would not be able to hang out in the Kingdom of Avalon at all.Even the adoptive father, eldest brother and Yulia will suffer from it.
"……what?"
Aiwass suddenly turned out a brass ring that shone with golden light.
It was carved with a fist full of scars, it was clenched tightly, and blood dripped from the fingers.And the gleaming "blood" is actually ground ruby powder.Under the sun, it reflected a dark red viscous luster like real blood.
The next moment, a light curtain popped up:
【Noble Red】
【Extraordinary Jewelry (Light Purple)】
【Jewelry-Ring】
[Characteristics: Weak law resistance (limited to triggering by transcending the road)]
[Spell: Severe Choking Cough (once a day, 1/1)]
[Required: Dark 2]
[Gesture, medium distance, effective immediately]
【"—We are all wounded fists, bloody hands, and scaleless blades."】
OK, it's shipped!
Aiwass' eyes lit up.
This is the best product that Da Zi can produce!
Weak law resistance can invalidate the interference and control effects of the authoritative path of the first energy level, such as law spells, law tactics-rebuke, and weaken the control effects below the third energy level by one energy level.
The Path of Authority is Avalon's most common path ability.If Aiwass wears it, the control skills released by extraordinary people within ten levels will not be able to yell at him; the control skills within thirty levels will also be cut off by about ten levels.The only downside is that this thing is too conspicuous, and people who usually wear it can easily be mistaken for the Noble Red Society.
But its effect is really good, and it is very practical in the early stage... and Aiwass is beyond the path, which can trigger passive effects.It's perfect for carrying around in your pocket and putting it back on when you need it.
The spell "Severe Choking Cough" attached to the ring, although it sounds a little mentally retarded, is actually quite a practical spell.
Just using the ring as a medium to cast spells, and two points of dark attribute mana is needed to release this point, it can be seen that it is not a very low-end thing.
"Cough Cough" is a first-level transcendence spell, and its effect is to put a person into a state of choking water.If Aiwass has obtained the corresponding occult book now, he can learn this spell.
"Severe Choking Cough" is an upgraded version of its second energy level.Its effect is to immediately plunge a person into a state of intense choking.From the narrative point of view, it is quite likely that irritating liquids such as red oil or sea water were poured down the nose, and it probably took several seconds of uncontrollable coughing to recover.
If a person has been coughing violently, then he is actually not easy to use force.
Because he can't inhale normally, his strength will be weaker.The effect in the game is "damage -10%, hit rate decreased by 10%, attack and movement speed decreased by 10%, lasting for three seconds", but Aiwass felt that this value must be conservative.
If it is true in reality, it is very possible to be caught off guard by this trick and directly reveal a fatal flaw.
In the same way, people who are in a state of severe coughing are also unable to speak, let alone yell.
It may not even be possible to speak clearly for a period of time after the effect ends.The mucous membrane has been injured, and it is easy to continue to cough accidentally.
And the legal system ability of the authoritarian path needs to be shouted out.
From this perspective, this piece of equipment was specifically designed to target the Supervision Bureau's abilities.Once spotted, it can be used to hold enemies back and flee immediately.
Aiwass couldn't help feeling grateful.
——Fortunately, I sold a loophole and seduced Veronica to choose Haina as a breakthrough.
She must have felt that her shot was too weak to penetrate her defenses.Then it's better to pretend to be dead immediately after taking a shot, and throw the spell at the moment Haina relaxes her vigilance to kill her in seconds.
So she doesn't want to be too threatening - because what she needs is Hayena's underdog.
This kind of academic school is very easy to show flaws in mentality.
But this, Veronica knew...of course Aiwass also knew.
He knew that Veronica must look down on Haina, so he deliberately foreshadowed and pretended that he was going to shoot her, so that Veronica could have a chance to successfully carry out her plan.When Veronica watched her plan gradually approaching success, she herself had let down her vigilance.
Fortunately, I dug a hole myself and chose the righteous burying hole sneak attack!
Otherwise, if she really opened her stance to fight, even if the spell that Veronica continued to guide missed, she could still grab her backhand and use the "severe coughing technique" to weaken Haina.
Moreover, this ring itself is the identity proof of the "Noble Red" association.And only official members can get it, not peripheral members like the evil bartender.
Although it is just an equipment in the game...
But Aiwass thought.
In reality, it may have other uses as well.
Just as Aiwass dared not wear it on weekdays, for fear of being misunderstood about his identity--it might also be true to use it in reverse.
I didn’t adjust it, and I wanted to write less, but the two chapters were more than 6000 words...
Hurry up and recommend it, please follow up~
