Chapter 239: On Guard
“Wizard tool?”
After listening to Nina’s introduction, Heath could not help but be stunned. “Are you saying that this is the blueprint of a Wizard tool?”
Nina nodded. “Yes, give me a quill and I’ll help you write it down.”
Coming to an empty tree hole at the side, Heath took out a sheepskin scroll and a quill and handed it to Nina. After this period of recuperation, her soul power had also recovered quite a bit. Now, she could materialize for a short period of time.
She picked up the quill and began to copy. In a short while, the densely packed runic formulas were written on the sheepskin.
Heath picked it up and took a closer look. “It’s really a Wizard tool!”
The name of the Wizard tool was Mermaid Sea Gills. It was a kind of lifestyle Wizard tool. Its main function was to enable people to breathe underwater, which was very useful in deep-sea diving.
Heath said happily, “Nina, you’re really a smart kid!”
The lifestyle Wizard tool was also a Wizard tool, especially this kind of lifestyle Wizard tool that could dive into the deep sea. It had always been very practical. The price in the Wizard World was not low either. It cost at least hundreds of thousands of Magic Stones, not to mention the blueprint…
A few high-level Magic Stones in exchange for a Wizard tool blueprint. This business could not only be described as cost-effective…
Nina tugged at her skirt and bowed, elegantly saying, “This is the most beautiful compliment I’ve heard today.”
At this point, she seemed to have thought of something. Suddenly, she said, “Oh right, a part of the runes in the middle of this Wizard tool is already damaged. However, I have deduced from the structure and grammar of the front and back. There shouldn’t be a problem. However, if you are preparing to make it, you still have to check it.”
So that was it. Was it because of this that the system had not found anything before?
The system’s extraction could only be complete knowledge. For example, a character. No matter how hidden it was, as long as it was complete, it could be extracted. However, if a corner of the character was missing, or even only half of it was left… it might not necessarily be able to be extracted.
Heath nodded. “Okay.”
“Let’s take a look again. Maybe we can find something good in this market.”
With this good start, the two of them walked around the market even more carefully.
Heath had a unique advantage when it came to things that were simple and crude. After all, through the system’s extraction, he could easily discover those little secrets that outsiders could not know.
However, picking up something like this could only be done by luck. The market at Magic Tree Airport was not large, so after circling around, Heath did not discover anything.
After leaving the last stall, Nina said in disappointment, “It seems like there isn’t any more.”
Heath was not depressed at all. “It doesn’t matter, it’s more than enough.”
After wandering around for a while, his spiritual power had increased by 1.8. His other strength, agility, physique, and even his soul power and soul mutation had all increased to varying degrees. It was comparable to several months of hard training.
Other than that, most of the materials needed to prepare the Sublimation Water had been purchased. Now, there were only three.
As he walked out of the market, Heath glanced at the spiritual power on the system interface.
Spiritual power 186.
Looking back a year ago, Heath’s spiritual power was only around 150, barely past the beginner stage of the Wizard realm. After a year of training, it had reached 186, a total increase of more than 30 points.
200 points meant that you could reach the advanced stage of the Wizard realm. And now, Heath was not far from that level.
“Where are we going now?” Nina asked.
Heath thought for a moment and said, “Let’s go to the Dark Forest to take a look first. I remember that there should be ‘Children’s Candies’ nearby. Let’s see if we can find them.”
Children’s Candies were a kind of fruit that grew in the Dark Forest. Their main purpose was to concoct Sublimation Water. They were one of the three materials that Heath lacked at the moment.
The remaining two were the Purple Coral and the Blessing of a high-level demonized creature.
As they walked down the street, the two of them arrived at the root of the tree. There was a hole in the tree in front of them. They could enter the Dark Forest on the ground through the hole.
Beside the hole stood a few Goblins with dark green skin, sharp noses, and sharp mouths. They were the guards that the Alves family had placed at the entrance and exit.
Just as they reached the entrance of the tree hole, Heath was blocked by these little monsters. “Wizard in front, stop your steps and accept the interrogation.”
Heath stopped his steps.
The Goblins looked around Heath and began to interrogate him carefully. “Who are you? Why haven’t I seen you before? Is this your first time coming to the Magic Tree Airport?”
Heath nodded. “Yes.”
The Goblin raised his head and looked at Heath. Then, he said, “Show me your key.”
“Key?” Heath was puzzled
The Goblin’s expression was obviously confused. “Every Wizard who enters the Magic Tree Airport will be given a key. Don’t tell me you don’t know?”
Heath said truthfully, “I really don’t know.”
The Goblin immediately bared his teeth and said with a fierce expression, “Don’t play tricks on me. Key! Take out the key!”
Heath frowned. What was going on with this Goblin? Did he take the wrong medicine?
“What happened?” At this moment, a voice sounded.
Then came the sound of wings flapping. The big bird that they had seen before flew over here.
The Goblins quickly bowed. “Lord Laspot.”
The big bird landed in front of them, folded its wings, and said, “What happened here? Why did I hear you guys making so much noise over there!”
The Goblin immediately pointed at heath and said, “This Gray Wizard, he doesn’t have a key!”
The big bird looked at Heath with a puzzled expression for a while and said in surprise, “Wizard, where did you come from? Where’s your ley?”
Heath could clearly feel that the magic power on its body was already secretly surging.
He explained, “I’m a warrior who just retired from the b.l.o.o.d.y Battlefield. I got off the airs.h.i.+p when it docked here this morning. I don’t know any key, and no one has given me this thing.”
The big bird was stunned. “You’re from the b.l.o.o.d.y Battlefield?”
It asked, “How do you prove it?”
Heath thought for a moment and took out the Silver badge that Robert had given him when he left the Battlefield. “Does this count?”
“Silver badge!”
The big bird was shocked.
It quickly flapped its wings and moved aside. It bent down and said respectfully, “Sorry, sorry, sir. We were rash. These two d*mn Goblins have disturbed you.”
Those who could take out Silver badges were at least high-ranking generals in the b.l.o.o.d.y Battlefield. In the Western Continent, they were all equivalent to Wizard Masters.
Heath’s lack of a key was also related to this badge.
Any Wizard who entered Magic Tree Airport would receive a key from Magic Tree Airport as proof of ident.i.ty. However, this was only for ordinary Wizards. A Wizard with a status like Heath had no need for this at all. After all, his Silver badge was the best proof of his ident.i.ty.
Previously, when he got off the s.h.i.+p, he had also taken the VIP pa.s.sage. Of course, no one would give him a key.
The two Goblin elders were already scared silly. After a moment, they both knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
The big bird looked at Heath’s expression and made sure that he wasn’t angry. It quickly pleaded for the two Goblins, “They didn’t mean to offend you, sir. It’s just that the higher-ups have given us pressure, so we have to defend ourselves to the death.”
Heath asked casually, “Did something happen?”
As he was wandering around the market, he had noticed that the security of the market seemed to be too tight. He could see patrolling Goblins everywhere.
The big bird hesitated for a moment. “This…”
Heath said, “If I don’t pursue the matter, explain it clearly.”
After hearing that, the big bird no longer hesitated.
He said, “Alright, this isn’t a secret that can’t be told. Almost everyone knows what happened here recently…”
