Casting spells

The potion in Zhang Cheng's hand suddenly burst into dazzling brilliance, and then exploded with a bang like a bomb!

The terrifying shock waves and flames instantly crushed everything within a few meters of the surrounding area, especially glass test tubes, bottles, beakers, and the like.

Fortunately, this level of explosion did not cause him too much damage. He just shook the glass shards on his body in frustration, and complained in a low voice: "Damn! Failed again!"

"Dear master, you are too impatient. It is not so easy to develop a new magic potion." Valindra reminded with a smile while putting on the mage robe.

"Hehe, you don't understand what I'm doing, do you?" Zhang Cheng gave Moon Elf a meaningful look.

In fact, what he concocted was not a new potion at all, but an attempt to replicate some Azeroth alchemy formulas in this world.

But unfortunately, I don't know why, every time I go to the key transformation place, there will be some unpredictable results, maybe it is the intervention of the magic net, or it may be some subtle energy changes, and eventually it will explode without exception.

Valindra stroked her moonlight-like silver-white long hair, bent down to pick up a piece of broken glass, stuck out her tongue and licked it, and soon showed a surprised expression on her face: "You are planning to concoct a piece of glass that can A potion that makes it easier for the caster to draw energy from the magic net?"

"Almost. Do you have any good suggestions?" Zhang Cheng didn't try to deny it.

You must know that Arcane Potion is a special potion that increases spell damage in Azeroth, essentially allowing the caster to integrate more closely with various magical energies.

Switching to the Faerun Continent covered by the magic net naturally becomes the extraction of energy from the magic net.

But the current dilemma is that according to the magic theory of Faerun Continent, the magic net is a gradual system. The deeper it touches the net, the more powerful magic can be cast.

This also means that the arcane potion is not only as simple as improving the power of the spell, but also allows the user to come into contact with a deeper level of magic net. Temporarily gain the power to cast the four-ring arcane spell.

Obviously, such a method of deception is obviously not allowed by the goddess of magic.

So whenever the deployment is about to be successful, there will be a strange force that breaks the weak balance in the medicine, causing a terrible explosion.

Valindra pondered for a moment, then quickly shook her head: "Sorry, I'm not proficient in pharmacy, so I can't give you any good advice. But as far as I know, dragon blood is found in many places. A very good stabilizer, especially your blood, which contains very strong magical power."

"My blood?!" A thoughtful expression appeared on Zhang Cheng's face.

next second...

As if he suddenly understood something, he quickly cut open his finger with a dagger made of mithril, dripped the blood into a brand new test tube, then added the solvent, and began to mix the arcane potion according to the proportion.

This time, instead of exploding, the potion showed an extremely bright purple color.

After the last bit of herbal powder was added, the boiling solution suddenly calmed down, emitting a faint blue smoke.

"Successful?!" Valindra tentatively asked with some uncertainty.

"I don't know, why don't you try?" Zhang Cheng raised his hand and released a low-level spell - detect poison.

Without any surprises, the liquid in the bottle was a non-toxic green color.

"Okay, I'll try it." Seeing that the potion was non-toxic, Valindra took the potion bottle and carefully took a sip.

When the purple liquid poured into the digestive system along the esophagus, she immediately felt that she was closely connected with the magic net, and then drank the whole bottle of potion in two or three gulps.

About a minute later, a strong magic power erupted from the Moon Elf's body.

"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! This bottle of potion actually made me touch a deeper magic net! I...I can use the six-ring arcane now!" Valindra clenched her fists, talking to herself excitedly road.

"Interesting..." A gleam flashed in Zhang Cheng's eyes.

Although he is temporarily unable to determine whether this bottle of arcane potion with dragon blood is only effective for dragon mages who also have their own blood, or it is effective for all spellcasters.

If it's the former, it means that the body he occupies has been transformed into a black dragon of Azeroth.

If it is the latter, it means that the matter of universal magic has finally taken shape, and he can proceed to further research...

Chapter 475 Changing Luskan

As an out-and-out activist, Zhang Cheng quickly ordered two apprentices and two mages who had been transformed into dragonmen to come to the public area of ​​the central tower to start testing the effect of the arcane potion and subsequent improvement methods.

Since that night, the Arcane Brotherhood has completely fallen under his control, and has even changed its name to a more pleasant one——Light of the Arcane.

In order to paralyze the spies of Neverwinter City, Waterdeep City, and the Harper Alliance, the entire organization abolished the previous aggressive posture and adopted a comprehensive contraction strategy. In addition to ensuring the most basic information transmission, most of the key members were recalled. The dragon masters are selected uniformly.

Those who are capable drink the dragon's blood potion and become the backbone, and those who are not capable and like to fight in secrets are dealt with.

Right now, there are only about 24 spellcasters in the entire spire who can cast arcane spells above five rings, and forty low-level mages who can cast spells between one and five rings. As for the rest, they are all apprentices. Yes, the entire organization has more than 130 people.

But these 130 people ruled the [-] residents of Luskan, and none of them dared to act rashly or challenge the majesty of the wizards.

In addition, thousands of monsters are stationed in the newly opened barracks outside the city, but anyone who is not a fool will choose to obey instead of rushing to seek death.

At the same time, a series of reforms are also proceeding in an orderly manner.

For example, the originally chaotic law and order has now been taken over by the cleaned and reorganized human guards. Any fight, brawl, theft, robbery, or occupation of land will be arrested without exception, and they will be shackled and engaged in heavy physical labor. Disorganized streets and buildings undergo demolition and renovation.

Although such a severe blow naturally caused many people to complain, but few people really dared to resist.

Because not long ago, a few gang leaders who claimed to be powerful wanted to sabotage secretly, but they were hung on the city wall within two days, and they wailed in pain for a whole day.

With the powerful monitoring capability of the Mage Tower, all conspiracies are futile, even the lycanthropy hiding in the sewer is no exception.

magic!

The most powerful force in the entire Faerun continent!

In the face of its incomparable power, even the gods would retreat and tremble, let alone a group of mere mortals.

Under the iron-fisted suppression, no matter whether it is a criminal organization or a lycanthropy, they are all uprooted, and they will become the brand new Luskan to shed their last drop of blood.

As one of the first few people who took refuge in Zhang Cheng, Gildan was standing in front of the window sill, watching the bustling demolition and reconstruction outside, and it took a full minute before he sighed with a smile: "I have never been so sure as I am now, This city will get better!"

"Your Excellency the Consul, I think it is necessary for me to remind you that we have owed a debt of up to 30 gold coins. If the renovation and expansion of the entire urban area is completed as planned, one or two zeros will be added after this." A woman in her 40s reminded cautiously.

"Hahahaha! Don't worry about the debt problem, the minaret will provide us with sufficient funds. You don't know yet, what the lord wants is not just to rule Luskan, he wants to build an empire, a A strong and prosperous empire." As he spoke, Gildan subconsciously grasped the saber, and the flames of ambition shot out from his eyes.

Although he is now the nominal military and political leader of the city, it can be said that one person is under one person and above ten thousand people, but he is not satisfied with it.

On the contrary, after witnessing the terrifying sight of the black dragon spitting out with his own eyes, he believed that the object of his allegiance could go one step further, unify the North with absolute force, and establish a powerful country.

At that time, he can also rely on his merits to become a high-ranking nobleman, and even own a large territory and his own castle.

As a saying goes, human desires and ambitions are never-ending. When you are hungry, you will yearn for food, and when you are full, you will yearn for more wealth and rights.

"Have you seen that adult?!" The woman's eyes widened in surprise.

Due to the relationship of always reclusive, most Luskan residents know that they are ruled by a powerful black dragon, but few have actually seen it, especially in human form.

"Of course! Why do you think I'm waiting to be a consul? I've been working for that lord a long time ago. Remember, Via, he's not like any dragon or wizard you've ever come into contact with before. , as long as you can demonstrate your unique abilities, you will definitely be appreciated and promoted." Gildan hinted meaningfully.

The woman named Wei Ya nodded thoughtfully: "Understood! Don't worry, I will not disappoint you and that lord. Besides, the envoy from Neverwinter City has arrived, we had better hurry Arrange it so that a trade deal can be signed."
