Magic Coin and Protection Ring

Spending was substantial, but to enhance his strength, Su Nan spared no expense.

After consuming the synthesized Super Energy Potion, his meditation efficiency reached an astonishing level.

After a single four-hour meditation session, his proficiency in the Star Ring Meditation Technique shot up by 514 points, and his mental power increased by 0.06.

The efficiency was more than six times that during his time in Blackstone City.

“As expected, the Super Energy Potion and Divine Blood Amber are well-matched,”

Su Nan was filled with joy.

Besides meditation, the effect of the Super Energy Potion also greatly accelerated his progress in learning spells.

In just one day, the learning progress of 【Magic Missile】exceeded 5%.

This also meant that in at most twenty days, he could master a new first-circle spell.

“Indeed, high-level resources are the guarantee for rapidly enhancing strength.”

Su Nan exhaled happily, deciding to stay at the Silver Moon Viscount’s mansion for a while, preparing thoroughly before entering the manor to deal with the evil spirit.

In the following time, Su Nan settled down in the mansion.

Every day, apart from meditating and learning spells, he repaired magical items, occasionally teased Amy, or petted a cat.

As for the Hidden Dragon, he had sent it out of Stone Bell City to hunt for food in the nearby mountains.

Under the dual boosts of the Super Energy Potion and Divine Blood Amber, the proficiency of the Star Ring Meditation Technique skyrocketed like a rocket.

On the thirteenth day at the mansion.

The Star Ring Meditation Technique smoothly reached level 5.

Su Nan also successfully constructed the fourth Star Ring.

【Su Nan・Anes-t, Human Male, 17 years old】

【Mental 17.34/Physique 13.77】

【Skills】

Star Ring Meditation Technique Lv5 (35/30000)

Potion Making Lv3 (727/6000)

Biological Modification Lv2 (319/3000)

Puppet Crafting Lv2 (1701/3000)

“Thirty thousand proficiency, it won’t take two months to max out.”

The thought that he could soon construct the fifth Star Ring made Su Nan very cheerful.

On the twentieth day at the mansion.

Su Nan successfully mastered 【Magic Missile】.

This was also his first first-circle attack spell.

The effect of 【Magic Missile】is to shoot a missile formed by highly condensed energy particles from the palm, the number and power of the missiles depending on the caster’s mental strength and spell proficiency.

For spells appearing on the panel, the casting proficiency must have reached a level of complete mastery.

With Su Nan’s nearly 18 mental power, he could release up to 3 Magic Missiles at the same time.

He tested it; a single Magic Missile was enough to pierce a two-centimeter thick Black Stone Iron plate.

Even a heavily armored knight would have a hard time if hit by a Magic Missile.

“In the future, as mental power increases, being able to release dozens of Magic Missiles simultaneously to form a barrage, that power would be truly terrifying!”

Amy’s master’s spell model books had a total of eight volumes.

Aside from 【Magic Missile】, there were 【Burning Hands】, 【Magic Alarm】, 【Ray of Enfeeblement】, 【Comprehend Languages】, 【Veil of Magic】, 【Prismatic Spray】, 【Feather Fall】.

Among them, only 【Burning Hands】, 【Ray of Enfeeblement】, and 【Prismatic Spray】 belonged to combat-type spells.

Su Nan thought for a moment and decided to learn 【Ray of Enfeeblement】 next.

Although rune stones were powerful, using one consumes more than a dozen gold coins each time.

A single battle could cost rune stones worth fifty to sixty gold coins.

Too expensive!

Su Nan decided to use spells and energy particle manipulation for combat whenever possible in the future.

Unless facing troublesome enemies, he would refrain from using rune stones.

No amount of gold coins could withstand such consumption.

“Unfortunately, advanced magical techniques require sufficient mental power to master, and can only be practiced after advancing to a third-level wizard apprentice. Otherwise, mastering silent casting and instant casting would make spellcasting in combat much easier.”

On the twenty-fifth day at the mansion.

Su Nan finally completed the repairs of two magical items.

After placing the repaired magical items into the cube, the corresponding information quickly surfaced.

【Protection Ring (Alchemy/Sub-Magic Item), when activated, forms an invisible protective field around the body, usable 3/3 times, can be restored by infusing mental power or automatically absorbing free energy particles.】

【Magic Coin (Alchemy/Sub-Magic Item), when activated, randomly summons a creature from another world to follow the user’s command; the creature will disappear after serving the user for half an hour or upon death.】

The Protection Ring looked like a regular copper ring, inconspicuous.

This was very much in line with the practical character of wizards.

They often preferred to make magical items less conspicuous, so during combat, the enemy wouldn’t focus too much on this magical item, having a preemptive defense.

Su Nan tested it and found that the protection field created by the ring had substantial defensive capabilities, similar to a Shield Spell.

However, a better advantage is that its defensive area is larger, able to provide 360-degree protection against attacks from all directions.

It wasn’t like the Shield Spell, which could only defend a single direction; unable to fend off attacks from multiple directions simultaneously.

Including the Protection Ring, Su Nan now possessed two ring-type sub-magic items.

The other Magic Coin was a rather rare summoning-type magical item with effects similar to a first-level Monster Summoning Spell.

However, the summoned creatures from another world using the Magic Coin had strength levels ranging from a junior great knight to a peak great knight.

Its effect was much stronger than a first-level Monster Summoning Spell.

In Su Nan’s view, the Magic Coin was already very close to a Twilight-level magical item.

During the repair of these two magical items, Su Nan’s 【Magical Item Crafting】 learning progress also reached 100%, successfully mastering this skill.

“Fortunately, I previously acquired a book ‘Compendium of Low-Level Magical Items’, once back in Blackstone City, I can attempt to craft magical items.”

A powerful wizard must possess numerous magical items.

After all, no matter how gifted a wizard is, they cannot have no weaknesses.

The weaknesses in their combat system must be compensated with magical items.

“Preparations are complete, next up is dealing with the evil spirit.”

With the Magic Coin and Protection Ring, Su Nan gained a bit more confidence for the upcoming operation.

When the Silver Moon Viscount received the butler’s report, that Lord Ange said he could take action, he felt a great relief.

Although the other party had told him in advance that a period of preparation was necessary for foolproofly dealing with the evil spirit, seeing over twenty days pass with no sign of action made him increasingly anxious.

With each passing day, the evil spirit at Cubero Manor grew stronger.

If delayed too long, it could develop beyond an irretrievable point.

Luckily, the wizard was finally willing to act!

The Silver Moon Viscount immediately decided: “Gather everyone, to Cubero Manor!”
