Chapter 246 Hercules
“Who is that man?” David asked with curiosity on his face.
“A consignee of a task.” Angel said bluntly: “You go hand over the other tasks first and I’ll come and find you later.”
After getting rid of David, Angel came over to ** Tower.
“Do you need to verify it first?” Angel took out a space capsule and handed it to ** Tower.
** Tower looked dismayed: “Have you finished refining already? And so soon?”
Although ** Tower marvels at Angel’s refining speed, the verification process is still necessary. However, Mission Hall has many prying eyes. Just in case of any accidents happen, ** Tower took Angel to a private reception room on the second floor.
After arriving in the reception room, ** Tower couldn’t wait to crush the disposable space capsule. The next moment, a long light blue chain appeared in the air. ** Tower subconsciously picked up the chain with his hand. But as soon as he touched the chain, he felt a huge weight pressing down on the palm of his hand.
** Tower retracted his hand in horror and the chain fell heavily to the floor with a loud crashing sound. ** Tower faintly saw a crack appear on the floor, which showed how scary the weight on this chain was.
At least from his current perspective of the situation, the request for “weight” has no problems.
** Tower also tested the effect of “forbidden sound” as well, which was displayed excellently and flawlessly.
During ** Tower’s tests, Angel gave a brief introduction of the materials used to refine the chain and possible points of interests to pay attention to. By the time the explanation was over, ** Tower also finished his tests.
“No matter from the request of effect, weight or even appearance. They have all met my requirements. I am very satisfied with this chain.” As ** Tower held the chain, his eyes flashed with excitement. With this chain, the success rate of what he wants to do is at least 90%.
** Tower’s character is very direct, just like the way he speaks, he didn’t delay. After confirming the chain met his requirements, he immediately pays the remaining balance.
After the remaining balance is paid off, the contribution points in Angel’s bone card had soared to 100,000.
“Now with this task handover finished, I will head out first.” After the goods have been paid for and delivered, Angel didn’t speak any nonsense and got up to leave.
** Tower asked: “Won’t you leave through the Teleport Array? Many people have seen both of us head upstairs together.”
Angel waved his hand and said: “I have friends waiting for me outside.”
With that, Angel turned to leave without looking back.
Although ** Tower seemed generous in his payment, he was still sad to see his empty contribution points at this time.
However, at the thought of the possible benefits brought by this chain, the last regret in ** Tower’s heart also disappeared. Although he still has some lingering regrets, his other matter is more important. It is related to his people and his own future. The best result is for fewer outsiders to know. But with Angel’s identity, he can’t touch him for the time being. Otherwise, things would’ve been even more perfect.
There were no more signs of ** Tower appearing for the time being. After Angel had left the second floor, he didn’t immediately go and join David. As expected by going up with ** Tower, he was stopped on his way down.
Angel met the person who had wanted to stop him last time.
“Hello, sir. My name is Hercules. We met last time.” Hercules shook his oily muscles and stood in front of Angel.
Angel slightly sighed in his heart and said impassively: “What can I do for you?”
Hercules eyes are sparkling and were clear as he asked: “Are you sir, an alchemy wizard? May I ask your excellency to help me refine a weapon?”
Angel was silent for a long time before saying: “I don’t have time right now.”
Angel didn’t deny he was an alchemy wizard. Hercules immediately understood and asked: “Then when are you free?”
“I don’t know.” Angel said, directly walking straight past him. Hercules didn’t block him either, which surprised Angel a little.
Angel originally thought Hercules was a difficult character, but he was quite easy to talk about.
But this idea only lasted for a while. When Angel and David finished handing over their tasks and as they were about to leave Mission Hall, Hercules reappeared.
“Are you free now?” Hercules still blinks with his big bright eyes.
“No time.” Angel shuddered. He couldn’t stand an oily muscular man winking with his eyes like a young girl trying to act cutely.
Hercules still didn’t block Angel and let them leave.
But after about ten minutes, when Angel and David were walking to the Treevine Bus stop. Hercules reappeared and gave the lines: “Are you free now?”
“Don’t you understand people? I said I’m not free. Will you stop following me?” Angel said.
“But you didn’t say when you were free?” Hercules replied innocently.
“I won’t be free today, so stop following me.” Angel said.
“Then tell me your address. I’ll come over and see you tomorrow.” Hercules asked naturally.
It wasn’t until then that Angel understood why ** Tower said Hercules was a man who had empty muscles and no brain. When he couldn’t understand what he was saying. What more could he say?
Angel sighed and said: “What weapon do you want to refine? Tell me.”
“An axe, a long-handled axe.” Hercules describes the weapon he wanted. When he finished talking about the shape, he added: “I hope this axe has a burning effect, is that okay?”
A long-handled axe with a flame magic pattern. Angel thought for a moment and found it wasn’t a very difficult task.
“How much do you intend on paying for it?” Angel didn’t want to be pestered by such a big fool all the time. He had originally planned to pick up this random task for 300 magic crystals. But what surprised him was that…
Hercules touched his head and shyly said: “I don’t have any magic crystals on me, can I pay for it with meat?”
“No, thank you.” Angel just turned around and left straight away.
Hercules followed them and said: “Wait, I can fight very hard. Just help me refine this axe, and I can sign a contract to protect you for a whole year!”
Angel turned his head and said: “I don’t like people following me, so I’m sorry. No matter how strong you are, I won’t accept this offer.”
Angel actually wanted to say something else if Toby was by his side since he doesn’t believe Hercules could win against Toby.
After listening to Angel, Hercules fell into a complete state of depression.
As Angel was about to turn around and leave, David suddenly asked Hercules: “Can you kill an Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog?”
Hercules hesitated before saying: “As long as I have a weapon, I should be able to kill it.”
David’s eyes lit up as he turned to Angel and said: “Angel, can I help him pay for it?”
When Angel heard David say “Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog,” he immediately reacted and said: “Do you want to go to Frost Moon Channel too?”
Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog is a low-level Warcraft that lives in the Abyss Plane. Apart from its extremely high defence, this bloodline has no other special effects. Blood Branch wizards will hardly ever consider fusing the Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog’s bloodline. However, it is precisely because of its simple defense that it can reduce or even resist explosive damage. Making many alchemy wizards willing to consider fusing this bloodline.
Fusing the Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog bloodline is tantamount to directly having a fixed advanced magic power barrier spell. This is very suitable for the research and experiment done by alchemy wizards.
David nodded and said: “If I can fuse with an Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog Bloodline, it will be of great help to my path of alchemy.”
Angel frowned and said: “Have you made up your mind to walk on the path of alchemy? Although bloodlines can be washed off, there will still be remnants left behind after all. The Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog’s bloodline is useless everywhere else besides alchemy.”
David said without hesitation: “Yes. Apart from alchemy, I have nothing else to prove my worth.”
Angel thought about it. If nothing else, he can help his friend, which isn’t a loss.
So he turned to Hercules and said: “I can help refine the weapon you want, but you need to sign a contract with David to protect him for a year. You also need to help him get the Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog’s bloodline. If you agree to these conditions, I can start by helping you refine your weapon today.”
Angel’s request is actually a little too excessive. Although the Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog’s bloodline is a very low-level waste. It still requires thousands of magic crystals when it is put into auction. Compared with an axe worth hundreds of magic crystals, Hercules will indeed suffer some losses. However, Hercules couldn’t beat the Iron Armour Demon Hedgehog without Angel refining the axe which actually illustrates the chicken or the egg problem.
Hercules had already been put in a state of despair and didn’t think there was still a possibility of a turnaround, so he nodded without hesitation and said: “Yes!”
In the name of Will of the World, the two signed a one-year contract.
After confirming the success of the contract, Angel and David worked together that night to make the long-handled axe requested by Hercules.
Since David made the blank for the weapon, Angel only received 100 magic crystals from David after the production was completed. This cost is regarded as the depiction cost for the magic pattern.
At this time, Angel’s bone card has nearly 800,000 contribution points. If converted into magic crystals. This is already 8,000 magic crystals.
As a first level apprentice, Angel is the only one that can have so many magic crystals. Even some wizards don’t have so much liquidity.
……
There are still three days left to go before Twilight Deep Well’s big auction.
Angel has no more tasks at hand, and he has roughly learned the Rewind Sound Illusion. So he decided to take advantage of these two days of free time to go and refine some music boxes and stop by to visit Lord Mirror Ji.
Angel has already made plans before refining.
He wants the refined music box to achieve two effects.
First, through the musical scale, he wants it to cast a Rewind Sound Illusion. So that when the music is played, it can also cast a fantasy world. But there are many things to pay attention to here. What kind of fantasy world can conform to the artistic conception of the music? Whether the fantasy world is built into a dynamic or static state, and what will the scope of the fantasy world be?
Second, carving the tranquil magic pattern on the music box as it plays gentle music to soothe an impetuous mood. There are also many difficulties involved in this task, such as what David once put forward: “If sound itself is noise, how can someone meditate?” Although Angel has personally tested that playing soothing music does not affect meditation. He cannot guarantee his ideas are true for everyone else.
Therefore, the final outcome depends on what will happen.
Until then, however, what Angel has to solve first is the appearance and style of the music box.
