"Spread your strong emotions of pain and desire for change to at least 50 people. The higher the resonance of the emotions, the better the effect of the ritual."
While marching, Valeera thought about this promotion ceremony that was somewhat similar to the "Iron-Blooded Knight", and suddenly laughed out loud, understanding the most likely method the "Pain" Witch would use -
Cultivate 50 "Witches".
Not only can this add new blood to the "Witch Sect", but it is also simple to operate, and the effect of the ritual is stable and long-lasting, and will not be washed away by time.
Valeera subconsciously replaced herself and thought about how she could complete such a ritual.
Obviously, she couldn't ruthlessly drag innocent people into trouble, and she wanted at least 50 of them, just to complete her promotion ceremony... Thinking of this, Valeela saw from a distance that the lights of the professor's house in Portland were still on at night. of houses.
She shook her head to get rid of distracting thoughts, walked around the house, and after investigating the surrounding situation, she easily completed the infiltration.
There were no servants in the house. The three extraordinary people from the Portland professor's family gathered in the brightly lit study on the third floor, quietly waiting for the arrival of visitors.
After Valeera found out the situation, she knocked on the door frame as a reminder, showed up openly, and entered the open study, "Good evening, everyone."
"Good evening, please have a seat."
Professor Portland Mormont responded with a smile, his tone was neither close nor far away, and he looked at Valeera to ask her purpose.
This atmosphere is really a bit stiff and not suitable for starting a topic.
Valeela sat on the sofa, and instead of getting to the point in a hurry, she asked a question first:
"I wonder what Professor Mormont thinks of new mechanical inventions, including corresponding production and sales?"
Professor Portland's family of three seemed to have discussed countermeasures in advance. After a brief silence, it was Professor Portland who was the highest ranked person who answered.
"Do you have a project that needs investment?" He frowned slightly, paused briefly, and asked, "How much is needed?"
In his opinion, since Valeera asked this, the purpose was probably money.
Although agreeing so happily makes me feel a little bit aggrieved by being blackmailed, if the amount is not too excessive and the problem can be solved with money, then it is acceptable.
"A new type of bicycle."
While speaking, Valeela took out the formal documents of the "Bicycle Company", put them on the table together with the equity donation agreement, and pushed them to the three people opposite.
…
After the conversation, which was full of testing and conciliation, lasted for quite some time, Valeela finally gained Professor Portland's initial trust and barely relieved the stiffness of the conversation.
"Okay, now you can tell me your true purpose. As long as it's not an excessive request, we can discuss it."
While speaking, Professor Portland pressed the note with the recipe for the "Baron of Corruption" potion on the equity grant agreement, without any intention of opening it and reading it.
Valeela smiled:
"I want to borrow your workshop and "craftsman" magical items to create some extraordinary items, something more secretive.
"I can guarantee that it's not a dangerous item."
Faced with Valeela's request, Professor Portland frowned deeply and felt embarrassed.
He discussed with his daughter and son-in-law in a low voice for a while, then looked up at Valeera again and said:
"I believe you have heard it. We have to ask a few questions and eliminate some concerns before we can try to believe you and agree to your request."
"Okay, please."
Valeera shrugged slightly, "But I don't guarantee that I will answer."
"Of course," Professor Portland stared at Valeera's expression, "Are you trying to make an extraordinary weapon?"
"No." Valeera answered simply.
…
After a while, several rounds of simple questions and answers ended.
Professor Portland breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his forehead, leaned back on the sofa as if exhausted, and said:
"We agreed.
"I hope what you said is true and will not cause us any trouble or disaster."
With his wave, Associate Professor Barak left the study and quickly retrieved the magical "artisan" item.
What surprised Valeera was that it was the mounted magnifying glass she had seen at Associate Professor Barak's house.
"Wait a minute, let me verify the formula first."
As he spoke, he hung the magnifying glass on his silver-rimmed glasses, opened the piece of paper with the recipe for the "Corrupted Baron" potion, and read it carefully.
"It's authentic." He quickly came to a conclusion.
Upon hearing the conclusion, Sasha Momont happily took the formula from her husband's hand.
During this period, Valeera and Professor Portland also completed the signing of the equity gift agreement and the "person acting in concert" agreement.
The old professor put down his signature pen and nodded to Valeela, "Please also leave an account and I will have someone remit the money to you tomorrow."
After all, he still kept an insurance policy... Valeela did not reveal the old professor's little idea, and conveniently left her real-name account with a loan of 1,000 pounds, and asked with a smile:
"Can you take me to the workshop now?"
Professor Portland stood up from the sofa, "Of course, please come with me."
He lit a candle, took Valila down to the back of the first floor, and entered the underground workshop through a small lifting platform set up at the end of a corridor.
After a few brief explanations, he stood back on the lifting platform, turned the wheel, and returned to the first floor.
Valeela opened the canvas package she had brought, put the materials and tools needed on the research table, and finally opened the drawer on the far right of the research table, and took out the black-rimmed glasses that Professor Portland kept inside as a spare.
The lenses are very thick and obviously have a high degree of power.
But there was no other way. The magical "artisan" item had to be mounted on glasses before it could be used. Valeela didn't prepare in advance, so she could only temporarily aggrieve her eyes.
Put on your glasses, and you will immediately feel dizzy from the height.
However, with the "Pain" Witch's ability to control and adjust herself, Valeela quickly adapted.
Then, she hung the "magnifying glass" that contained the characteristics of "craftsman" on the left lens, and felt its negative effects at the same time.
Professor Portland has already introduced that the negative effects of this "craftsman" item are very slight. It will only slightly speed up the brain's operation and randomly temporarily block part of the user's memory.
Valeela radiated and spread her spirituality, immersed it in the "magnifying glass", and completed the final communication.
With the bang, Valeera felt her mind shaken, as if she saw a flickering light, and received a large amount of knowledge and information at the same time——
This includes how to use the "Identification Technique" with the help of a "magnifying glass", methods of combining, transforming and processing extraordinary materials, as well as some knowledge related to runes and rituals.
Unfortunately, there is no section on how to utilize and process extraordinary properties.
The new knowledge brought new inspiration. Valeela's mind was active for a while, and her "making" ability was greatly enhanced as expected.
At this moment, Valeera felt like a real "artisan"!
