Synthesis Wizard

After exchanging pleasantries, Kei got down to business.

“Anything the Lord commands, I wouldn’t dare not take it to heart. I’ve collected quite a few things, I’ll take you to have a look now,” Mu Zhuo said with a smile.

He then called out loudly towards the center of the tavern: “Ota, stop drinking! Come here quickly!”

The beastkin named Ota had just defeated his opponent in a drinking contest and was basking in the cheers and flattery from those around him.

Hearing Mu Zhuo’s voice, he wiped his mouth and strode over.

As he approached, Ota’s gaze paused for a moment on Su Nan, his pupils seemingly contracting before he turned to Mu Zhuo, grinning and asking, “Boss, what’s up?”

“Time for work.” Mu Zhuo pointed to the backyard, then smiled at Kei and Su Nan, “Please follow me.”

The Fire Fox Trading Company’s carriage and goods were all placed in the backyard, guarded by more than a dozen fully armed men.

Judging from their uniform clothing and weapons, they were not mercenaries, but private soldiers cultivated by the Fire Fox Trading Company.

In this era, trading companies with the strength to cultivate private soldiers were all large-scale organizations.

It seemed the Fire Fox Trading Company had a significant foundation.

Following Mu Zhuo’s instructions, Ota carried a heavy wooden box from one of the carriages and placed it on the ground with a bang.

Opening it, there were more than a dozen thick books inside, along with five small boxes.

“These are all the things Lord wants,” Mu Zhuo said with a smile.

But to his surprise, Kei only nodded and didn’t make any move.

Su Nan, on the other hand, walked over to the box and squatted down to examine the contents.

There were fourteen books in total, four of which were duplicates of books Su Nan already owned.

It was unavoidable.

Ordinary people couldn’t understand the words written in wizard books, so naturally, they couldn’t be asked to make a selection during collection, and duplication was inevitable.

The remaining eight books were also of the type that could not trigger skills.

However, Su Nan was not disappointed.

Although they couldn’t trigger skills, more new knowledge was always better.

After all, for wizards, knowledge meant power.

Moreover, he had the identity of a player, and as long as the reading progress of a book reached 100%, he could completely master the knowledge contained within. ᚱἈ₦ỘΒÊʂ

This alone gave him a huge advantage over other wizard apprentices.

But there was one book that piqued Su Nan’s interest.

*The Extraction and Transformation of Green Chameleon Abilities*!

From the preface, this book discussed how to extract the bloodline containing chameleon abilities from a lizard called the Green Chameleon and then fuse it into the human body for transformation, allowing the person to possess a chameleon-like ‘camouflage ability’ that adapts to the environment.

“A pretty interesting experiment,” Su Nan muttered to himself, setting the book aside. He planned to read it carefully later. Then, he opened the five small wooden boxes one by one.

Three of the boxes contained scrolls made of sheepskin.

The moment he opened the boxes, Su Nan felt the energy particle fluctuations contained within the scrolls.

It was obvious that the three scrolls were magic scrolls.

Moreover, they all recorded first-ring spells, namely *Freezing Ray*, *Mist of Concealment*, and *Level 1 Summoning Technique*.

“Good stuff!”

A glimmer of joy flashed in Su Nan’s eyes.

His current spiritual power was not enough to learn first-ring spells, but using first-ring spell scrolls was no problem.

Magic scrolls only required a small amount of spiritual power to activate, and any wizard apprentice could use them.

Of course, if one’s strength was insufficient and they used spell scrolls of a higher rank, they were easily susceptible to injury from the energy fluctuations.

But there was no such issue with first-ring spell scrolls.

These three magic scrolls could play a significant role in battle!

After a moment of delight, Su Nan continued to look at the remaining two wooden boxes.

They also contained sheepskin scrolls, but they didn’t record magic spells, but other things.

To Su Nan’s astonishment, the first scroll recorded a formula for a revitalization potion.

“Essence of Mindheart Tree Sap, Essence of Phantom Python Bone Powder, Thousand Soul Grass, and Phantom Sound Flower are all rare and precious materials.”

Su Nan scoffed inwardly.

In present-day Starlight Continent, collecting all these materials was no easy feat.

Who knew how much manpower and resources it would cost?

Even if he wanted to use the magic cube to synthesize suitable alternatives, he would have to go through numerous experiments.

In comparison, using a Lower-Grade Revitalization Potion to synthesize a Revitalization Potion was easier.

The second scroll recorded a technique called Energy Rune.

Su Nan did have an impression of this technique.

Energy Rune was a branch of enchantment, where one manipulates energy particles to condense a rune with elemental properties and attach it to oneself or other objects, adding corresponding elemental effects.

For example, attaching a lightning rune to a weapon could temporarily give the weapon lightning damage and paralysis effects.

Attaching a wind rune to oneself could make the body lighter and greatly enhance agility and flexibility.

Simply put, Energy Rune was a technique that could temporarily turn ordinary objects into magic items or temporarily enhance oneself with beneficial states.

Due to its low consumption of spiritual power, once mastered, Energy Rune could be combined with melee combat to unleash formidable combat power, making it highly practical in battle.

“In essence, it’s an advanced technique of energy particle manipulation. It requires extremely high control over energy particle manipulation for the caster, which is why it requires at least a Third-Rank Wizard Apprentice to use,” Su Nan thought.

But Su Nan clearly remembered that in his previous life, some players had developed a special method that allowed even First-Rank and Second-Rank Wizard Apprentices to use Energy Rune.

If he used that method, perhaps he could master Energy Rune ahead of time.

“I’ll try it when I get back!”

Su Nan had a plan in mind. He closed the wooden box and put it back in the crate, slowly getting up.

Mu Zhuo now understood that it was Su Nan who truly wanted to collect these things. He smiled and said, “These things must be to your liking, Lord Su Nan?”

“Not bad,” Su Nan nodded slightly, his expression seemingly impassive, but inwardly he was very satisfied.

Not to mention the books and spell scrolls, just the Energy Rune alone gave him a sense of great gain.

Kei, realizing his younger brother was quite happy with these things, raised his hand and summoned two soldiers to carry the things back to the inner castle. He and Su Nan then took their leave of Mu Zhuo and left.

As he watched Kei and Su Nan walk away, Mu Zhuo looked thoughtful.

Books and other items related to wizards were good collectibles.

Many nobles had a hobby of collecting such things.

But as far as he knew, the Kei brothers’ situation was seemingly not very good. Logically, they shouldn’t have the desire to collect items.

After all, these things were not cheap. Dozens of gold coins were enough to buy several sets of armor.

But if it wasn’t for collecting, why would Su Nan collect these things?

After pondering for a while without finding an answer, Mu Zhuo shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He turned and saw Ota staring straight at the direction Su Nan and the others left, and asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”

Ota hesitated for a moment and said, “That nobleman called Su Nan gives me a very dangerous feeling!”

Dangerous?

Mu Zhuo’s expression shifted.

Due to his beastkin bloodline, Ota had a beast-like intuition, capable of vaguely sensing whether someone posed a threat to him.

But Ota, as his head of guards, possessed the power of a mid-level knight!

For him to feel extremely dangerous, it would have to be at least someone at the peak knight level.

Su Nan, while not exactly skinny, didn’t look like a peak knight at all!

Mu Zhuo was even more puzzled.
