Chapter 259

Opening the skill list, another list appeared next to the Shadow of Extermination skill list.

Su Xiao opened the sub-skill list, and a skill tree popped up from top to bottom.

Except for the first item, the rest of the skill tree was gray.

The skill tree is as follows:

【Alchemy (Complete)】

First Layer, Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing: lv. 1

1: Low-level Mental Power Bomb (Each manufacturing requires 20 mana points, black powder, secondary energy circuit, ordinary metal, molten acid powder.)

Second Layer, Alchemy Potion Manufacturing (Locked; unlocking requires the first layer to reach lv. 10.)

Third Layer, Alchemy Organism Manufacturing (Locked; unlocking requires the second layer to reach lv. 10.)

The following content is visible after unlocking the third layer.

……

Currently, Alchemy is divided into three layers, and each layer needs to be upgraded independently before the next layer can be unlocked.

Among these three abilities, Su Xiao favored "Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing" and "Alchemy Drug Manufacturing" the most.

Now he had only mastered Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing. This was a good ability; at least he wouldn't need to buy bombs in the future. If there were leftovers during manufacturing, he could also sell them in Reincarnation Paradise.

Su Xiao began to study Alchemy Bombology. Upgrading this ability required not only 500 Paradise Coins but also proficiency.

【First Layer, Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing: lv. 1 (Proficiency 0/10)】

【1: Low-level Mental Power Bomb (Each manufacturing requires 20 mana points, black powder, secondary energy circuit, ordinary metal, molten acid powder.)】

10 points of proficiency required manufacturing the "Low-level Mental Power Bomb" ten times. Su Xiao's mana was very sufficient, but apart from black powder and ordinary metal, he had never even heard of the other two materials.

Su Xiao's heart sank. Could it be that he had learned a useless skill?

Attempting to manufacture a "Low-level Mental Power Bomb," a hint from Reincarnation Paradise appeared.

【Insufficient materials. Yes/No to pay 50 Paradise Coins to replace the required materials?】

Su Xiao was overjoyed. He just felt that Reincarnation Paradise wouldn't define a useless scroll as fifth tier. There were nine tiers in total, and fifth tier was already considered mid-tier.

Paying 50 Paradise Coins, white light flashed in Su Xiao's hand, and the Paradise Coins perfectly replaced the materials.

A dozen seconds later, an object resembling chewing gum appeared in his hand, the length of a thumb, very small in volume.

【Low-level Mental Power Bomb】

Quality: White

Effect: Can be activated at any time by consuming 1 mana point (within a range of 500 meters, the manufacturer's range increases to half a kilometer). After explosion, it causes 40 damage within three meters. Easy to carry, can be stuck to most objects.

Rating: 3 (Note: The rating for white items is 1 to 10.)

Selling Price: 40 Paradise Coins.

……

Su Xiao played with the mental bomb in his hand with interest. This thing was white all over, the length of a thumb, and very soft overall.

A bad idea suddenly surged in his heart: mix some fruit syrup into this thing and give it to plot characters, saying it's bubble gum.

With a light chuckle, Su Xiao handed the 【Low-level Mental Power Bomb】 to Xiang Bubu Wang. This silly dog immediately perked up and bit down on it.

Su Xiao's face darkened, and Xiang Bubu Wang stopped his action.

"This thing is very dangerous. Stay away from it in the future."

Xiang Bubu Wang shrank his neck; by the look of it, he understood.

Su Xiao was doing this as a precaution. If Xiang Bubu Wang went up and swallowed it after he set up a mental bomb, it would be a disaster.

Attempting to place the 【Low-level Mental Power Bomb】 on the stall, he priced it at 100 Paradise Coins. Excluding the 20 mana points consumed, the cost of this item was only 50 Paradise Coins.

Something unexpected happened. Within five minutes, a contractor stopped at his stall and bought the 【Low-level Mental Power Bomb】 directly, without bargaining with him at all.

This surprised Su Xiao, so he sat behind the stall and began to manufacture 【Low-level Mental Power Bomb】s.

He had a total of 573 mana points and could manufacture 28 【Low-level Mental Power Bomb】s.

Light flashed, and soon nine 【Low-level Mental Power Bomb】s appeared on the stall.

Su Xiao opened the skill list, and as expected, the proficiency for the first layer of Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing was full.

Attempting to upgrade "Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing," he wasn't sure if this ability needed to be upgraded at the Skill Enhancement Hall, as this was a knowledge-type skill.

A large amount of knowledge rushed into his brain, making Su Xiao dizzy. A few seconds later, he recovered to normal and gradually sorted out the knowledge in his brain; this was all knowledge of "Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing."

"Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing" had been upgraded to lv. 2, and a new ability appeared.

First Layer, Alchemy Bomb Manufacturing: lv. 2 (Proficiency 0/20)

1: Low-level Mental Power Bomb (Each manufacturing requires 20 mana points, black powder, secondary energy circuit, ordinary metal, molten acid powder.)

2: Intermediate Mental Power Bomb (Each manufacturing requires 30 mana points, black powder, lower energy circuit, Materia metal, aqua regia, explosive frog skin.)

……

Su Xiao attempted to manufacture the newly appeared "Intermediate Mental Power Bomb." The required materials could also be replaced by Paradise Coins, costing 100 Paradise Coins per manufacturing.

His high mana finally had a use while resting in Reincarnation Paradise, and 100 Paradise Coins each time wasn't much. Su Xiao began to manufacture "Intermediate Mental Power Bomb"s one after another.

When his mana remained at 15 points, Su Xiao stopped manufacturing. He had manufactured a total of 12 Intermediate Mental Power Bombs.

Looking down, the 9 【Low-level Mental Power Bomb】s on the stall had all been sold; this thing was very popular.

Su Xiao pondered for a moment, kept 5 【Intermediate Mental Power Bomb】s, and priced the remaining 7 at 400 Paradise Coins each.

The cost of 12 【Intermediate Mental Power Bomb】s was 1,200 Paradise Coins. He didn't calculate the mana; mana could recover slowly and was a renewable resource.

12 cost 1,200 Paradise Coins, and the selling price was 400 Paradise Coins each. Selling three would break even. This business was very profitable—not just profitable, but exorbitant.

The high price of 400 Paradise Coins made those passing contractors hesitate, and they didn't choose to buy after hesitating for a long time.

The explosion range of the 【Intermediate Mental Power Bomb】 was 5 meters, could cause 90 damage, and had a rating of 7 points; otherwise, Su Xiao wouldn't sell it so expensively.

"Make this kind of mental bomb cheaper."

A burly man wearing full-body armor stood in front of the stall.

"350 is the lowest."

Actually, selling them for 200 Paradise Coins would be fine; Su Xiao was just testing the contractors' tolerance.

"350~, this..."

The armored burly man looked troubled, and Su Xiao raised an eyebrow.

"Are you planning to buy them all?"

"Yes, this kind of mental bomb is easy to carry, and the power is not bad. It's good to carry some with you."

Su Xiao was in a good mood. It seemed that bombs in Reincarnation Paradise were more popular than he imagined.

"These seven for 2,200 Paradise Coins. This is the lowest price."

The armored burly man chuckled twice and agreed to this price. Just as the armored burly man was about to leave, he suddenly saw the green-quality ring on the stall.

"Make this ring cheaper too. How about 7,000 Paradise Coins?"

"10,000 Paradise Coins. This thing is not for bargaining."

The armored burly man shook his head and began to bargain with Su Xiao. After arguing for a few minutes, the armored burly man sighed and spent 10,000 Paradise Coins to buy the Evil Spirit Roar ring.

Now only the 【Ice Domain Prince Token (Blue)】 remained, and this thing was not easy to sell.

Su Xiao yawned, took out his laptop, leaned against Xiang Bubu Wang, lay in a semi-reclining position, crossed his legs, and began to play a puzzle game.

Xiang Bubu Wang, who had fallen asleep on the blanket, looked up, and after discovering it was Su Xiao, he continued to sleep.

Xiang Bubu Wang's loyalty made Su Xiao very satisfied. Being a lone wolf in Reincarnation Paradise was very lonely; having this silly dog was not bad.
