Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems Chapter 452: Tome of the Tombstone

Half a day later, in the afternoon, in the potion room within the Feathered Serpent Pavilion, Locke had successfully concocted the Abyssal Werewolf Transformation Potion using only one set of materials.

The old black wizard looked greedily at the purple-black potion bottle in Locke's hand and reached out to grab it. But in the next mont, his palm grasped at empty air. He suddenly jolted awake, as if waking from a great dream, and looked toward Locke.

The old black wizard gave an embarrassed laugh, "Worthy of the Eye Demon Wizard."

"Using only one set of materials and half a day's ti, you've helped prepare such an Abyssal Werewolf Transformation Potion. In the future, if I have friends who need high-difficulty potions prepared, I'll recomnd them to you as well."

"Originally, I ca here just to try my luck and didn't hold too much hope, after all, you're really too young. If I hadn't seen your na on the list of potion masters invited by Grand Wizard Sulla, I would have had difficulty even finding you."

Locke understood. So that was how this old black wizard had investigated him.

That made sense. As long as he did anything related to potion studies, whether good or bad, once word spread, it would bring him a certain reputation.

Locke said, "Give the to, and I'll give you the potion."

"We have a contract. The contract also stipulates that you can't deceive , or give counterfeit goods, or give a to with deliberately incomplete knowledge, while I must let you leave the Land of Six Towers."

"Although contracts watched over by the Eye of Truth can still have loopholes, those loopholes aren't easy to exploit, and I don't have the ti to wrangle with you."

The old black wizard gave an embarrassed laugh. "Of course, we're all proper people, busy people with our own matters."

The old black wizard handed the magic box to Locke while softly chanting an incantation. The magic box imdiately opened, and Locke promptly handed him the Abyssal Werewolf Transformation Potion.

Locke picked up the to and imdiately began to examine it. Indeed, this was a complete set of First Circle archaeology magic, and its approach continued the ideas from the previous apprentice-level To of the Tombstone.

Although so ideas didn't match up, possibly due to different versions, Locke could figure out the missing parts by making ntal leaps and thinking it through.

This wasn't difficult for a First Circle wizard.

The key point was that black wizard knowledge inheritances were like this, it was hard for him to read them as comfortably as he could read white wizard materials.

Locke quickly scanned through the To of the Tombstone. "I see. So First Circle archaeology studies these kinds of things, no wonder it's called the To of the Tombstone."

From the to, Locke discovered that many First Circle archaeology spells were much more complex than apprentice-level spells. For instance, the apprentice-level archaeology magic was Historical Projection, while the First Circle archaeology magic was Historical Recreation.

The apprentice-level magic was Summon Tomb Spirit, but the First Circle archaeology magic Summon Tomb Spirit was a major category with several summoning spells subdivided beneath it!

For example, Summon Ancient Tomb King, Summon Earthbound Spirit, Summon Gravekeeper, and so on.

This entire set of spells contained the complete spell inheritance and knowledge inheritance of First Circle archaeology.

Locke was thoroughly enlightened, especially by the section discussing ancient creature bloodlines, which was extrely detailed and far more comprehensive than the apprentice-level ancient creature knowledge.

"Hmm? This ntions quite a bit of ancient creature information. It actually ntions that within the Three-Eyed Tiger Cat race, there are Second Circle level creatures, specifically the cat kings in each Three-Eyed Tiger Cat tribe."

Locke was amazed. "Through archaeology spells using Historical Recreation, archaeology scholars have overco the effects of complex magical pressure and information loss in negative energy particle fields to discover the important chanism for the Three-Eyed Tiger Cat race's advancent."

"The cat king of the Three-Eyed Tiger Cats advances through acquired ans, aning through post-natal thods, Three-Eyed Tiger Cats can beco Second Circle creatures."

"However, the specific advancent chanism is unclear and currently under research..."

Locke felt sowhat regretful, but this was also normal. After all, archaeology scholars who primarily researched Three-Eyed Tiger Cats like himself were relatively rare.

Locke looked at the To of the Tombstone. First Circle archaeology was vastly different from the apprentice level.

If apprentice-level archaeology was like reading one page of a book, then First Circle archaeology was like directly reading an entire book.

The amount and depth of the Mordo language that needed to be read were completely different.

Moreover, First Circle archaeology spells could overco more complex magical pressure variations in the environnt. They could even use archaeology magic in situations where the negative energy particle field had been damaged, still able to read the damaged negative energy particle field as if reading an intact one.

This involved a concept, comparison.

A damaged negative energy particle field could no longer be repaired, but by continuously comparing different details of the sa negative energy particle field, one could find the original negative energy particle field and deduce the details of the lost portions.

One could also compare different negative energy particle fields that had similar environnts or were related, using this comparison thod to increase the accuracy of deduction.

This was equivalent to creating a reference book for oneself.

Whenever a damaged negative energy particle field was discovered, one would consult the reference book, look up similar negative energy particle fields within it, and through comparison, deduce the relevant details.

Using this thod, one could see into a more distant past while minimizing the effects of powerful magical pressure and ti passage on the negative energy particle field.

Locke imdiately realized, "So First Circle archaeology scholars have a job that feeds on experience. Those experienced archaeology professors naturally possess more detailed reference books and higher deduction accuracy rates than new archaeology professors."

"Or... I could directly purchase the reference book of an elderly, experienced archaeology professor and imdiately compensate for this shortcoming." Locke understood. "Therefore, for First Circle archaeology scholars, because of the existence of this reference book, historical materials beco extrely precious."

"Whoever has read more historical materials is the more excellent archaeology scholar. Of course, for this reference book to be useful, it needs to be conveniently compiled, aning the spell model must be reasonably constructed."

"And archaeology scholars have given this reference book a na, the Suzerain. In other words, First Circle archaeology scholars need to create a Suzerain of their own."

Locke looked up at the old black wizard before him. He saw that in his delight, the old black wizard didn't hesitate at all and directly drank the potion.

Imdiately, he covered his throat and mouth, and blood began flowing from all seven orifices.

"Locke, what's wrong with him?" Alicia turned to look at Locke worriedly, afraid that sothing had gone wrong with the potion. But Locke had already signed a contract guaranteed by the Eye of Truth. If he provided a fake potion, he would also be punished by the Eye of Truth.

The old black wizard covered his mouth and nose, letting out painful wails while waving his hand, "I'm fine, I'm fine."

"I just drank the potion directly as a precaution. In the past, I once had a precious item that I'd just obtained but was reluctant to use, so I held it in my hands all day. Within a few days, it was snatched away by soone, so I just drank it directly."

"This potion... tastes right. This is exactly the feeling."

"I've already transplanted the ancient creature Howling Moon Demon Wolf bloodline. By taking this bottle of Abyssal Werewolf Transformation Potion, I can beco a special, powerful werewolf."

"My life level will be elevated, my lifespan will increase, and I'll have more ti and higher talent to pursue becoming a Second Circle wizard."

"Hahahaha..."

Along with the old black wizard's loud laughter, his body suddenly began to expand and he started going mad. His claws forcefully tore at his own face, pulling the skin off bit by bit. Then a silver-cast wolf head erged from within. The werewolf was still laughing, teeth opening and closing...
