Chapter 224: Higher-tier Enhancement Magic, Eyes in the Dark

~10 min read 1,846 words

A while later.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

The four "Mithril-Rank" adventurer team members, who only had one breath left, were thrown in front of the carriage by the Miss Cuiye Witch and the evil spirit dog.

"Ah... cough..."

"No... no."

"Save, save me..."

"......"

The four of them convulsed and let out wails of agony.

Tang Zheng shook his head with some disappointment: "No matter what, they are a 'Mithril-Rank' team; their coordination is actually so poor."

"Did you think you had the victory in hand? Your information gathering work is really not very good."

The red-haired captain's chest had a large area of corrosion, and the severe pain had long since become numb in the cold weather, but his body still couldn't help but convulse.

His dim gaze trembled.

The red-haired captain used the little strength he had left to look in Tang Zheng's direction, his eyes somewhat hollow: "In... information... fake..."

Huh?

Tang Zheng pondered slightly, then chuckled clearly.

Sure enough, the information transmitted from the Baharuth Empire was clearly castrated, and even intentionally hidden.

Everyone suspected that "Wu Wang" Go-Gin's departure had something to do with him, but they didn't know the reason at all, besides the Empire intentionally covering it up.

Most people were also completely attracted by the 50,000 gold coin bounty and ignored some details.

"Wu Wang" Go-Gin's departure was actually very simple; the Empire's arena could no longer let the Wu Wang's strength grow.

This itself belonged to "Wu Wang" Go-Gin's own will, but the Empire wouldn't say such things, plus the impact this event had on the front line during the war between the Kingdom and the Empire.

With the Bloody Emperor's wisdom, he could guess that the Wu Wang's departure had something to do with him.

The bounty appeared!

And the most critical part of this was that there were clearly battle traces in the noble courtyard where Tang Zheng communicated with "Wu Wang" Go-Gin.

This key information was completely hidden by the Empire.

"Don't look for excuses for your failure, my Mithril-Rank adventurer lords."

Tang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and said flatly: "Even if it's an information problem, you don't have the ability to force me to take action, do you,"

"Enri."

"Cap, Captain!" Enri straightened her back, holding the short sword in her hand, and spoke nervously.

Mithril-Rank adventurers were just solved by Miss Miss Cuiye like this.

Enri's lips trembled, and she was still a bit dazed until now. She knew Miss Miss Cuiye was a powerful magic caster.

However, she had no concept of how strong she was.

But Enri knew clearly what kind of big shots "Mithril-Rank" adventurers were.

"It might be a bit early for you, but sooner or later you will need to go through this. Use the short sword in your hand to kill them," Tang Zheng said.

"Ah!" The short sword in Enri's hand almost fell to the ground.

"Why, can't you do it?"

"It's not that, Captain, but, but..."

"Then forget it." Tang Zheng didn't seem surprised by Enri's tangled and fearful appearance and waved his palm.

"Magic Arrow"!

Four semi-transparent magic arrows condensed and shot out, killing the four people who only had one breath left.

"Little Black, let's go."

Tang Zheng didn't look at Enri, who was stunned in place, but sat back on the carriage and leaned against the carriage railing, closing his eyes to rest.

Actually, he was summoning the attribute panel to check the skill information used by the four Mithril-Rank adventurer team members during the battle.

As for Enri's problem?

He recruited Enri not to be a babysitter for the other party.

Although the future Enri joined the Bone King's faction in a daze, it was indeed a correct choice for Enri.

Just like now.

Enri chose to accept his invitation and became his subordinate without hesitation. This is because it was a rare, even only opportunity for both Carne Village and Enri herself.

From the beginning, the only one who needed to grasp this opportunity tightly was Enri herself.

Whoosh!

The evil spirit dog shook its neck, the bone chains on its body flew out, pulled up the carriage again, and continued to move forward along the road.

The Miss Cuiye Witch's bright yellow eyes looked cautiously at Tang Zheng, who was resting with his eyes closed, and then glanced at Enri, whose body was stiff and face had turned pale.

"You look a bit scared, little girl."

The Miss Cuiye Witch hugged her chest with both hands, raised her chin, and spoke to Enri with a cold tone for the first time:

"Actually, whether you take action or choose not to, the master doesn't care."

Enri looked up in a daze, meeting the Miss Cuiye Witch's emotionless eyes: "Miss Miss Cuiye."

"Don't think too much."

The Miss Cuiye Witch sneered, raised her finger to point at herself first, then pointed at Enri:

"Although I don't want to be mentioned in the same breath as an ordinary person like you at all, neither I nor you have the qualifications to make the master care."

"To use your words, it's like an ear of wheat in a wheat field; one more or one less doesn't matter at all."

The conversation between the two.

Tang Zheng could naturally hear it; the carriage was only so big, and even if they intentionally lowered their voices, it didn't have much impact.

What surprised him a bit wasn't the Miss Cuiye Witch's hidden flattery, but that the Miss Cuiye Witch had indeed not stayed in the border human village for a few months in vain.

"Lower - Strength Increase."

"Lower - Agility Increase." Tang Zheng's attention was currently on the two enhancement spells displayed on the attribute panel; these were both second-tier spells.

Among the skills used by the four Mithril-Rank adventurers, the only ones that interested him were these two enhancement spells.

Tang Zheng had encountered magic casters who used this series of spells before, but he didn't waste skill points to learn them.

After the enhancement-type magic is released, only the highest-level enhancement magic will take effect.

Now.

Having mastered the "Magic Rise" skill, he could completely upgrade low-tier enhancement magic to high-tier, but...

Tang Zheng remembered that among the enhancement-type spells Bone King mastered, the most top-tier ones should be the seventh-tier "Upper - All Ability Enhancement" and "Upper - Resistance Enhancement."

These two enhancement-type skills completely covered the low-level series of enhancement means.

If he learned these two lower-tier enhancement spells and upgraded them to upper-tier, it would take at least four skill points.

"'Lower' level corresponds to second-tier magic, and generally those with the prefix 'Upper' are basically seventh-tier magic."

Read every word carefully!

Tang Zheng had this thought flash through his mind, thoughtful.

For example, "Upper Item Appraisal," "Upper Item Destruction," "Upper Magic Seal," "Upper Magic Shield," "Upper Item Creation," "Upper Teleportation," "Upper Luck," etc., all belong to the seventh-tier.

"Then, the three levels of lower, middle, and upper magic are not just a one-tier upgrade as originally expected."

"No wonder there are many magic casters using 'Lower' enhancement magic in the other world, but I have never seen anyone using 'Middle' level enhancement magic."

"'Middle' magic is at least at the fourth-tier level."

"Hmm... 'Upper' magic might also have level differences. 'Upper Strength Increase' and 'Upper All Attribute Enhancement' shouldn't be at the same level."

"Just like the first-tier 'Light Wound Healing' and the second-tier 'Group - Light Wound Healing'."

Tang Zheng analyzed and speculated inwardly. Ordinary upper-tier enhancement magic should be at the sixth-tier level.

Like "All Attribute Enhancement," it must be one tier higher than single attribute enhancement.

After thinking for a short while.

Tang Zheng gave up the idea of learning these two low-tier enhancement spells again. Dealing with ordinary enemies didn't require these two enhancement spells.

And dealing with Bone King's group, at least seventh-tier enhancement magic is needed.

Whoosh!

The cold wind swept up the sparse snowflakes on both sides of the street, and the figures of Tang Zheng's group gradually disappeared at the end of the road.

About half an hour later.

Figures wearing black tight-fitting suits and camouflage-style cloaks appeared in front of the corpses of the four Mithril-Rank adventurers like cats without any movement.

The black figures not only wrapped themselves tightly, but even wore a black cloth on their faces, revealing only a pair of lusterless eyes.

That was a kind of pure indifference and coldness.

Swish!

These figures suddenly scattered, revealing a passage, and there was still no movement during the whole process.

Click-click—

A person completely different from these black figures around walked over slowly and stood in front of the four adventurers' corpses, scanning them simply.

This figure was dressed somewhat differently, especially compared to the others around, it was not a style at all, because the other party was wearing a maid outfit.

"Hmm, slightly misestimated the strength of the prey, but that's right, being able to fight with the 'Wu Wang' is at least at the 'Orichalcum' level adventurer standard."

"You might die in the hands of the prey."

"Life and death are just that."

In the next few days.

Tang Zheng's group didn't encounter any more attacks. The death of a "Mithril-Rank" adventurer team clearly deterred many adventurers and mercenaries who wanted that 50,000 bounty.

Passing through every village, Tang Zheng would take the initiative to stay for one night, letting Enri and the Miss Cuiye Witch sell "Regeneration Potion."

Besides these villages, Tang Zheng also passed through two ordinary cities and also sold alchemical potions.

Poor villages sold some diluted ordinary "Regeneration Potion," while wealthy villages and cities sold high-grade "Regeneration Potion" worth ten gold coins.

Refining these "Regeneration Potions" was very simple for Tang Zheng, and the raw material problem could be solved at any time by using teleportation magic to go to the Great Forest of Tob to obtain them.

Troll-Gu and that group of ordinary trolls had always been taken care of by the magic snake Naga, and they could be taken at any time.

During this process.

The excellent healing effect of "Regeneration Potion" gradually spread, along with Tang Zheng's name as the "black-haired genius alchemist," which also spread within the Kingdom's territory, no longer limited to being known by some nobles.

Naturally, they encountered many merchant teams and travelers along the way. Besides buying alchemical potions, these people themselves became a link in the spread.

Night.

The night sky like a black curtain was dotted with a large number of stars, and there were rarely a few clouds.

Except for the air being somewhat dry and cold, the cold wind also stopped.

"Tomorrow should be a good day."

A blue-haired man with messy hair glanced at the figures moving around, somewhat boredly pillowing his head with both hands, lying on the cold slope.

Under the moonlight.

This man was wearing a chain shirt, his figure was slender but very sturdy, and even with the cover of clothes, one could feel the bulging muscles.

Faint
