Chapter 673: 215. Witty and Funny Wiseman _2

At the moment Noland Lee began to engrave the magic runes, Eve Mastin remained motionless, as if she were a wooden chicken. Her mind did not awaken.

Before officially engraving the runes, Noland didn’t forget to consume 11,760 Energy Points to raise “Magic theft” to Level 49.

This way, he would be able to steal magic power from Eve Mastin, who was also at Level 49.

Eve Mastin possessed four types of magic powers: Fire, Earth, Thunder, and Water.

The so-called magic power is a synonym for magical energy.

Fire, Earth, Thunder, and Water Elemental Magic Energy are the same as elemental energy. The former comes from natural phenomena, while the latter comes from Elemental Giants.

The casting condition for “Magic theft” is that for each type of magic power the target has, Noland can engrave a magic pattern to steal that magic power.

As a result, four magic patterns appeared on Eve Mastin’s body.

Noland confirmed with Deconstruction Technique:

The four magic patterns he left on Eve Mastin’s body could extract 100 points of Fire, Earth, Thunder, and Water magic power from her every 24 hours.

His “Magic theft” had a 20% completion rate.

Of the 400 points of stolen magic power, only 80 could be retained.

As Eve’s master, Denise Green would have to provide her with 10 points of Soul Energy every day, and Noland would take care of this expense.

It means, Noland spent 10 points of soul strength every day to get 80 points of elemental energy.

20 points each of Fire, Earth, Thunder, and Water.

This conversion ratio was much stronger than using Elemental Energy Summoning Technique to exchange for elemental energy himself.

Noland had to find a way to store these elemental energies.

He had already found the corresponding magical items.

It was the empty magic stone, which was the magic stone without magic power.

This thing was cheap. It was formed after wizards drained the magic power from magic stones.

Noland could buy 10 of them for 1 gold coin in the market.

“Magic theft” magic pattern was made up of two parts.

Noland engraved the magic pattern used to steal magic power on Eve’s body, while the other part was the magic power output pattern.

By engraving the magic power output pattern on the magic stone, Noland was able to receive the magic power extracted from Eve’s body.

Between the two magic patterns, one for input and one for output, the distance between them could not exceed 490 meters, which is the magic pattern level times 10 meters.

Once Noland prepared his “Magic Viscera,” he could use his body to receive the stolen magic power. For now, magic stones are one of the few viable options.

“Job done~” Noland put down his Rune Staff in the study room, with the magic stone engraved with magic power output runes in front of him.

There were four empty magic stones on the tabletop, each capable of storing 100 points of magic power.

The storage capacity of 400 points was more than enough to last until Noland created his “Magic Viscera.”

“Stealing magic power has been sorted out. The next step is to passively deconstruct the sea and get billions of energy points reward, using the ‘Shaping Energy Technique’ to create super-powerful spells, or modify the construction plan for the ‘Elemental Energy Reactor’.”

Noland felt that his current state could be described as “extremely busy.”

With Selena’s support, he could now do many things more freely, which suddenly increased his options.

“Enhancing my combat strength is the most important task right now, and I must be clear about that.” Noland stared at the magic stones on the table and pondered:

“When the magic stones have magic power tomorrow, I’ll test the effects of creating spells by mixing multiple energies. Also, stealing magic power from Eve Mastin isn’t a long-term solution. I still need to find the corresponding meditation method or magical items to convert soul strength into elemental energy or magic power at a high ratio. This will free me from dependency on others.”

Noland thought of the little girl from the Shaping Energy System preschool class, Sienna.

The girl had already learned to cast a “Fireball,” but that was accomplished with the help of a magic wand. She hadn’t mastered a meditation method before enrolling.

Last time Noland deconstructed her textbook, he hadn’t seen anything related to the Shaping Energy System meditation method.

Furthermore, drawing magic power from natural phenomena requires practicing the meditation method to Level 90 – when the “Spirit” attribute value reaches 90 points.

This was contrary to Noland’s plan of maintaining the status of a First Rank Wizard.

So, the only option left for him was this:

Find something that could convert soul strength into elemental energy at an extremely high ratio.

Noland raised his eyebrows, lightning flashed through his mind, and then he suddenly slapped his forehead!

“Eh, I completely forgot about Alchemy after leaving Alchemist Island! Why am I obsessed with using magical means to convert soul strength into elemental energy? Can’t alchemy do the same?”

Noland’s mind brightened instantly!

He checked his “Knowledge” and “Scholarly Skills” in his mind.

Alchemy creations that could convert soul strength into elemental energy were related to the “alchemy array.”

The higher the level of the alchemy array, the higher the energy conversion ratio.

Noland’s “Alchemy Runes and Array Learning” was Level 30 now.

By using a basic alchemy array, he could obtain elemental energy at a 1:130 ratio.

This conversion ratio was already much higher than that of the Elemental Energy Summoning Technique.

Poor Noland had so much stuff in his head that he only remembered he had such an efficient energy conversion method at this time…

He stared at the magic stones on the table with a slightly dull-eyed expression, cursing himself as a huge idiot.
