“A ‘Tier 2 Skill Scroll: Phantom Skill’ and a ‘Tier 2 Magic Drug Formula:
Gathering Demon Pill’?”
After checking the introduction of the skill scroll, Leo Ray found out.
The Phantom Skill is activated to form a special field around oneself, making it impossible for enemies to grasp the caster’s true position.
Simply put, what you see is not what you actually see. You think you are stabbing at the opponent’s heart, but in reality, you are only stabbing the air beside them.
Of course, under normal circumstances, this skill is only effective against opponents whose strength is not much different from or weaker than one’s own.
“This is a great life-saving skill. It looks like it utilizes the principle of light refraction?”
Immediately afterward, Leo Ray, with a face full of surprise, looked at the magic potion formula’s description.
The effect of the Gathering Demon Pill is similar to that of the Qi Condensing Pill, which can enhance the strength of those below Tier 2 Nine-Star.
However, for physical and magic system occupations, the Qi Condensing Pill is more universal, while for purely magic system occupations, the effect of the Gathering Demon Pill is even better.
Seeing this, Leo Ray’s mind moved, immediately starting the upgrade.
[Congratulations, your ‘Tier 2 Skill Scroll: Phantom Skill’ has been upgraded to
‘Tier 4 Skill Scroll: Mirage Phantom Skill’!]
[Congratulations, your ‘Tier 2 Magic Drug Formula: Gathering Demon Pill’ has been upgraded to ‘Tier 3 Magic Medicine Formula: Star Pattern Magic Energy Pill’!]
“Goodness, not only have they changed in quality, but the skill scroll has also directly jumped to Tier 4?”
Overjoyed, Leo Ray began by opening the new skill scroll’s attribute column.
[Name: Mirage Phantom Skill]
[Tier: 4]
[Description: Physical.Magic.Assistance.Universal Illusion, advanced version of Phantom Skill, created by a legendary illusionist. In addition to the original effect of Phantom Skill, it can also project corresponding illusions within the field’s range, further confusing the enemy.]
“It can be both offensive and defensive, simply perfect. In this way, it is not only a life-saving skill, but it can also make the opponent dazzled even during the attack.”
As he thought of this, a white scroll with a faint layer of mist on its surface appeared in Leo Ray’s hand by the power of his mind.
Without hesitation, Leo Ray sat cross-legged and began learning.
Between breaths of concentration, he separated a wisp of pure energy from the energy vortex within his abdomen, completely enveloping the scroll’s surface.
The next second, accompanied by a dazzling white light burst, Leo Ray’s body suddenly shuddered slightly, apparently as a flood of unfamiliar information rushed into his mind.
About a quarter of an hour later, when he opened his eyes again, a faint smile couldn’t help but emerge on his face.
Setting the now-dim scroll casually on the table, Leo Ray walked straight out of the Lord’s Mansion’s main gate.
Upon arriving in an empty area where nobody would disturb him, he began to cast the skill according to the special energy driving method firmly imprinted in his mind.
In an instant, he could clearly feel it.
In a range of about 1 meter around his body, the space suddenly became incredibly clear.
Even without using his eyes, he could clearly feel how many stones were under his feet, how many weeds had grown in a certain place, and so on.
It was as if everything in this area was under his control.
“Is this the field effect of the Phantom Skill? With my current strength, I can only expand to a range of less than 1 meter. I wonder how far I can expand when my strength gradually increases?”At this thought, the excited Leo Ray continued to focus his mind.
In an instant, he actually moved a few tens of centimeters in place, as if he had performed a short-distance teleportation. Following that, he moved back again.
“So that’s how it is, just as described in the skill description. Although the body doesn’t move, it can create an illusion in people’s senses, right?”
Slightly shaking his spirits, Leo Ray took a deep breath, and in the blink of an eye, another identical him appeared beside him, just like a pair of twins.
Moreover, these two Leo Rays could both perform completely different actions, without any sense of incongruity.
However, after just a moment, the later-appearing illusion disappeared out of thin air, leaving only Leo Ray standing there, panting heavily.
“The energy in my body has been drained so quickly. It seems that even though it’s a Tier 4 auxiliary skill, the energy it consumes is still extremely massive.”
Shaking his head helplessly, the nearly exhausted Leo Ray simply sat down on the grass.
“With my current Tier 2 Three-Star strength, can I only unfold a realm less than 1 meter and control one illusion?”
Thinking of this, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and during the break, Leo Ray took out the newly upgraded Tier 3 Magic Medicines Formula.
The appearance of this magical potion formula is a small, delicate scroll the size of a palm.
When unfolded, it densely records a large number of strange and unique material names.
Moreover, it also depicts various types of magic arrays and many complicated and lengthy formulas and units.
At first glance, it looks like a combination of a prescription, a cookbook, a chemistry book, a math book, and a magic book.
“I have finally found another reason why magic potions are rare. It turns out that every alchemist is also a top student.”
Helplessly curling his lips, the dizzy Leo Ray opened the attribute column of the magical potion called “Star Pattern Magic Energy Pill”.
After checking, he found that this Tier 3 Magic Medicine is an advanced version of the previous Tier 2 Magic Drug “Gathering Demon Pill”, which can also increase the user’s strength by 1-3 stars, up to Tier 3 Nine-Star level.
“It seems that the matter of digging up alchemists is really too urgent. If we have a constant supply of such magic potions, our side’s strength will undoubtedly receive another epic upgrade.”
At this thought, the already somewhat recovered Leo Ray stood up again and returned to the Lord’s Mansion.
Undoubtedly, there was still a crucial task left unattended, as he had stayed in Cyan Town the day before.
“Receive today’s Recruitment Order!”
In an instant, six brand-new Tier 1 Recruitment Orders appeared in his hand.
Due to not having converted Rhizoma Drynariae, the commander of Cyan Town’s Defense Army, into a direct subordinate yet,
and also needing to prepare for the soon-to-be-recruited alchemist, Leo Ray still chose the Tier 1 Recruitment Order this time.
In this way, after upgrading, he successfully obtained 300 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders and 3 Tier 3 Recruitment Orders.
Afterward, Leo Ray upgraded the Tier 3 equipment obtained from the City Lord’s Treasure House.
At this point, the accumulated work had finally come to an end. “Right, there’s still one task left.”
Thinking of this, Leo Ray hurriedly pushed open the door of the Lord’s Mansion and started walking outside..
