Arriving in the living room, Siebel lifted her skirt gracefully, sat down on the tiger-skin chair, and looked at him with a smile.
"Don't think it's expensive. This is the discounted price. Only the mentor's apprentices are eligible to enjoy it."
Karl's mouth twitched slightly.
"Yes."
"And..." Siebel continued: "This money belongs to the mentor. I can only earn some tuition fees from you. So don't complain."
"Senior sister." Karl said: "What witchcraft can I learn?"
This is the key point.
"I don't know much witchcraft, and I have spell models but haven't built them successfully. These are the few I can teach you."
She opened the drawer, took out a note and handed it over.
"Take a look and see if there's anything you like."
Karl took it.
The note listed a row of witchcraft names, including zero-ring witchcraft and magic, most of which he had heard of.
Now he is no longer a newcomer who knows nothing about the wizarding world.
Arcane Missiles, Acid Splash, Ice Mist, Hidden Spikes, Poison, Decontamination, Shorthand...
"Senior sister."
After reading it, Karl looked puzzled.
"It seems that the witchcraft here requires auxiliary materials to practice?"
"Mostly," Siebel corrected him.
"Arcane Missiles doesn't need any auxiliary materials, and neither does Shorthand."
Oh!
There are five zero-ring spells in total, four of which require auxiliary materials, and without the materials, the spells cannot even be cast.
Karl was speechless.
"What's that expression on your face?" Siebel frowned.
"The witchcraft spell model I chose is simple and easier to construct successfully, but its power is not inferior at all."
"Just like this acid splash, as long as it is combined with concentrated acid, its power is one of the best in zero-ring witchcraft."
And that's indeed true, the acid splash unleashed could easily corrode a knight's squire into a pile of bones.
Even Formal knights dared not touch it lightly.
There are also ice fog and poison spells, which, combined with frost potions and poisons, are so powerful that they can easily trap and kill the knight.
Certainly, first one have to be prepared, then have to hit the target.
"I see."
Karl sighed:
"It's just that I'm a trouble-shy person, and it's impossible for me to carry so many medicines with me. The key is..."
"The medicine costs money."
Hearing this, Siebel couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Then you have to think carefully. The witchcraft spell model using auxiliary materials is simpler and easier to construct."
"As for the medicine, I can give you a cheaper price."
She still hoped that Karl would practice auxiliary witchcraft so that her potions could have another market.
"Never mind."
Karl shook his head and refused. Compared to relying on external objects, he preferred to directly increase his own strength:
"I'd better learn Arcane Missiles."
"..." Siebel sighed.
"Okay."
"Actually, Arcane Missiles isn't bad either. If you can get Lesser Fireball and Continuous Arrow, you can create a one-ring magic Continuous Fire Missiles."
"Hmm?" Karl looked up: "Can zero-ring magic form one-ring magic?"
"Yes." Siebel said as if it was a matter of course.
"Just like the shadow hand, shaping puppet, and spirit possession skills that the mentor has practiced, if you buy a soul fragment, you can form a magic servant of the first ring."
"Otherwise, if we directly construct a level one-ring magic, how many high-level wizard apprentices can master it?"
"So that's actually the case." Karl asked curiously: "Then the witchcraft that Senior Sister practices should also have a similar advancement plan, right?"
"This is..." Siebel blinked: "...secret!"
Indeed, this kind of thing is definitely the other party's secret, and it will never be revealed unless it is someone you can trust your life with.
Unless someone is like Adolf, who has practiced enough witchcraft and has more than one trump card, it naturally doesn't matter whether it is revealed or not.
Karl then asked: "senior sister, do you know where I can learn the lesser fireball and continuous arrow spells?"
"Junior brother, this is too far away for you now." Siebel shook his head after hearing this.
"First, construct your first zero-ring witchcraft. Plus, I don't know where these spells can be found."
"Maybe you can learn about them by going to Black Swamp."
Karl nodded.
It was indeed too early for him to learn the first ring magic.
And he doesn't know if the Fire Seal can replace the lesser Fireball. If it can, the Continuous Arrow spell will be enough.
He then got the spell model of Arcane Missiles on credit.
The prerequisites for this zero-ring sorcery are "Arcane Principles", "Air Science", and "Basics of Ballistics"...
Understanding the contents of these books makes it easier to construct spell models.
But Karl is different from ordinary people.
He'll first constructed a spell model in his inner sea of mind, and then understand the book based on the operating rules of the spell, doing the opposite.
The two chatted for a few more sentences, and Karl bought three potions for replenishing and restoring mental strength at the price of five gold coins each.
Certainly, this money is not owed on credit.
…
Karl was very satisfied with this visit. Although he bought on credit, he successfully acquired a zero-ring witchcraft.
However, his mental strength is insufficient and his is not yet in a position to practice it.
As for the seal...
There is a kind of meat coffin in Black City, which can hold the seals taken from the body and can preserve them for seven days without spoiling.
He can just find a buyer within seven days.
Name: Karl (Lord of the Divine Domain Fragment)
Physical fitness: 0.84
Mental strength: 1.47
Source quality: 0
Occupation: Knight Squire, junior wizard apprentice
Without the seal to divide the vitality, the effect of taking the exotic beast meat has greatly increased, and it is just a matter of time to reach 0.9, and the mental strength is also increasing steadily.
"Good!"
"The people of Black City may be strong, but my potential is greater. Time is on my side after all."
Karl picked up the broadsword beside him and stroked the blade. He paused for a moment and said.
"It's time for maintenance."
Then he took a step forward and arrived at the Black City.
"Um?"
The sky was as gloomy as usual, but the dead silence and inexplicable atmosphere around him made his heart tighten subconsciously.
The increased perception from practicing the Poison Wolf Breathing Technique brought even more warning signs.
Danger!
"Swish!"
A dark shadow pounced from behind.
What?
Hearing the sound, Karl turned around and swung his sword, activating the secondary magic field at the same time, and retreated to the side repeatedly.
"Puff!"
The broadsword chopped at the black shadow, and the huge force directly chopped the black shadow away, revealing its appearance.
It is a wild dog with yellow hair.
No!
"A coyote!"
A common creature in the underground of Black City, it feeds on soil, and its mouth full of fangs can even gnaw on black stone.
"How did this thing get to the ground?"
"Woo…"
The injured coyote struggled to get up, whimpering softly as he looked at Karl, his body crouching down, ready to move.
Karl took a step back, not because he was afraid, but because he looked at the ground.
"Boom!"
The ground shook, and a huge round mouth covered with countless tiny serrations broke through the ground and rushed out.
The coyote didn't even have time to react before it was swallowed by the terrifying mouth.
"Underground worm!"
The underground worm looks similar to an earthworm, but is countless times larger, comparable to a truck. Its sharp teeth are not just for show, and can easily chew up gold and iron. Even a knight would not easily provoke such a creature.
It also lives underground, feeding on soil, black stone and other creatures, and usually does not come to the surface.
After swallowing the coyote, the worm twisted its big mouth and looked at Karl, seemingly not very interested in him. It swayed its body and slowly sank into the ground.
Karl held the sword in his hand, ready for battle, and only frowned when he sensed the worms underground moving away into the distance.
"What's going on?"
Although he doesn't know what exactly happened, he can be sure that something must have happened in Black City.
