[You have obtained an 'ancient sheepskin scroll recording the spirit summoning ritual'. 】
[Congratulations, you triggered the hidden mission 'The Trial of the Disaster Witch'. 】
[Task content: Within ten days, follow the steps on the scroll to prepare a soul-calling potion and summon the remnant soul of the Disaster Witch into the real world. Mission reward: Potions inheritance. 】
"Um?"
Seeing a series of new prompts that popped up, Mu You was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed!
So, that sigh just now was really made by a witch?
Her voice can actually pass through the game and directly affect him in reality. What a terrifying power this is... Mu You once again realized the power of this witch.
However, these are no longer important.
At this time, there was only one sentence in his mind: Where there is sincerity, gold and stone will open!
With perseverance, he finally converted this stubborn witch like stone!
...Of course, it's also possible that the witch was impatient with his retracement, so she casually threw a mission to send him away...
There was no time to take out the parchment and take a closer look. Five seconds passed in an instant. Mu You hurriedly pressed the pocket watch again.
Although I have acquired the inheritance of black magic and started the potion science task with some cool operations, isn't there still a divination skill...
Anyway, black magic and potions are taught, so it’s okay if you want to do divination...
"Depend on!"
However, Mu You immediately lost his temper because the witch didn't give him a chance at all. After backtracking, all three options disappeared, and instead two new texts popped up.
[You have obtained the inheritance of the witch. The remnant soul of the witch ignored you and went directly back into the crow's eyes. 】
[The crow flaps its wings, and the scene around you begins to change rapidly. 】
[After everything stops, you find yourself standing outside the black forest again. And when you looked back, the black forest behind you quickly disappeared like the foam of a dream, and no trace of its existence could be found anymore. 】
"Is this going to kick me out?"
Mu You pouted, but there was nothing he could do. Who let this be someone else's territory?
Fortunately, he had received a generous enough reward during this trip to the Black Forest.
After coming back to his senses, Mu You quickly clicked on the 'Sheepskin Scroll' in the item column.
A piece of simple yellowed sheepskin appeared in his hand. Mu You opened it and took a look. It was covered with dense star spirit characters, and there was a circular formation pattern underneath.
He hurriedly got the Star Spirit Dictionary and translated the entire text above.
[Spirit calling potion: 105 grams of silver powder, 36 grams of iron powder, 140 ml of pure water, 5 inspiration grass leaves, 10 drops of extracted mandrake juice, 15 grams of resurrection grass powder, 1-9 drops of red dragon's blood (in The more the better (no more than 9 drops), a complete lighthouse jellyfish, 7 grams of giant konjac pollen, 50 grams of pure crystal powder, 100 ml of own blood...]
[The mixing order is...the heat is...]
[After the preparation of the potion is completed, on a full-moon night, on a flat surface where you can directly see the moonlight, arrange the spirit-summoning formation as shown in the picture below, and prepare a living sacrifice to be placed in the center of the formation, and then place the spirit-summoning potion Drop by drop on the magic circle, and recite the following incantation at an average speaking speed...]
"So troublesome?"
Mu You stared blankly at the long list of ingredients behind the potion formula.
Inspiration grass? Mandela juice? Resurgence grass? Red dragon blood? Lighthouse jellyfish?
What are these special things?
Mu You said he had never seen any of them. Moreover, according to requirements, this ceremony must be held on a full moon night.
Full moon night...
Mu You hurriedly checked, and fortunately, the next full moon did not exceed the ten-day range.
July 11th, that is, eight days later, happens to be the fifteenth day of the lunar month and the only full moon in ten days...
In other words, he must find all the materials and concoct a potion above the sophisticated level within eight days. As for the excellent level, according to the rarity system Coke told him, it ranks third!
Isn't it embarrassing for him, a layman who has never even started, to concoct a sophisticated potion from the very beginning and find the materials himself?
Mu You felt more and more that the witch just casually mentioned an impossible task just to get rid of him.
However, even so, he had no intention of giving up and had to struggle no matter what.
"There are still ten days left, let's gather as much material as possible first..."
Mu You breathed out and looked up at the time. It was already two o'clock in the morning.
He has been busy playing games all night, and he has not yet completed his typing task today.
"The Black Forest is gone. Let's go back to the village first in the game and go to the old cat shop owner to ask if these materials are available for sale..."
Thinking about this, Mu You took out the donkey in the game and started to ride back on the donkey.
[You ride on the donkey and choose to go straight south to Anning Village. 】
[On the way, it is expected to arrive at the destination in 16 hours...]
Fortunately, because the monsters had been cleaned up along the way, there were no obstacles on the road for the time being, and the donkey could return smoothly all the way, and finally he no longer had to keep an eye on him.
After switching the game to the background and hanging up, Mu You put away his phone and went downstairs. After putting on his invisibility cloak, he climbed out of the back window again.
After arriving at the previous park in the dark, Mu You found a bench and sat down as usual.
But he won't have nothing to do for an hour tonight. The secret crystallization and two new secret techniques he just received are still waiting for him to explore.
Mu You crossed his legs, placed his hands flat on his knees, closed his eyes, and immersed himself in the secret crystallization in his mind.
According to the memory left by the Disaster Witch, two conditions must be met in order to release black magic.
First, there must be a well-engraved black magic.
He was already satisfied with this. The small fireball technique and the rejuvenation technique had been engraved on the two sides of the crystal.
The second condition is that you need to absorb enough natural magic power first.
This must be achieved through meditation. The movements he maintains now are in a state of meditation, letting his mind empty, and the secret crystal will automatically absorb the surrounding natural magic power until the crystal is overflowing.
Mu You originally thought that the absorption process would be fast, because in his memory, every time Vivian and the others meditated, it only took five to ten minutes to be full of energy.
However, this meditation lasted for a full two hours, and the crystal was only less than one-third full...
Mu You was a little strange at first, but after thinking about it, he understood again.
The magic power on earth now is just a little bit of thin magic power that penetrates the 'wall' from the Star Spirit World. How is it comparable to the concentration of magic power in the Star Spirit World?
Thinking of this, Mu You smiled bitterly, immediately gave up this inefficient move, and stood up to test the so-called secret technique.
Holding the phantom wand, Mu You pointed at a small tree not far ahead and chanted the small fireball spell.
As a result, at this moment, there was no wind around. The power of wind, the element of fire, and the natural energy stored in the crystal were all drained out in an instant, and they all rushed towards the tip of the wand crazily.
The next moment, a huge fireball appeared in front of him and shot forward.
The fireball streaked across the sky with a brilliance comparable to that of the sun, directly turning the dark night in the park into daylight. Then it easily vaporized the small trees in front of it, and rushed towards a construction building in the distance...
"boom!"
Amidst the loud explosion, the entire building was instantly covered in flames.
Mu You was stunned as the flames soaring into the sky and the debris of various explosives fell.
He guessed that with the blessing of black magic, the power of this small fireball might be greater, but he did not expect it to be so terrifying!
Without any time to think, he quickly pressed his pocket watch.
Fortunately, the time had not exceeded five seconds. After time passed, he kept the movement of the draw wand and had already recited half of the spell.
Mu You hurriedly swallowed the remaining half, still feeling a lingering fear in his heart: "Who named it? You call this a small fireball? It's obviously a fireball, right?"
