Chapter 215: Chapter 151: Substantial Spoils of War (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3

Rein carefully studied the curse-type witchcraft again, and his brows furrowed immediately.Because the release of the curse "spiritual exhaustion" not only required learning some prerequisite knowledge, such as "basic principles of negative energy" and "human neurology," but also hinged on the manipulation of negative energy particles.

The strength of the negative energy particles that the caster could manipulate was directly related to the strength of this curse's effect.

Of course, the strength of spiritual power is almost linked to the power of all witchcraft, which goes without mentioning here.

That is to say, if Rein were to perform this witchcraft, with the same spirit power intensity, his curse effect might be a lot weaker than that of Adams's.

The second curse was called "Ghostly Entanglement."

It also required personal objects closely associated with the curse's target, such as hair or blood; secondly, it required an existing resentful spirit or other spiritual body creature. If not available, it wasn't impossible, but the effect of the curse would be greatly reduced.

Curse "Ghostly Entanglement" Effect: Causes the magnetic field of the curse's target to change, making it extremely susceptible to the attention and attack of resentful spirits, malevolent spirits, and other spiritual body creatures.

Seeing the effects of this curse, Rein couldn't help but understand why Adams was referred to as a Ghost Manipulator.

Indeed, there are only misnamed names, not misnamed nicknames.

For most people, even for a formal knight, facing such a bizarre curse without the aid of external forces was very hard to resist.

After thinking it over, although both these witchcrafts were naive energy curses, Rein found them difficult to learn, and the effects after learning might be passable.

But Rein still planned to give them a try.

However, in terms of learning order, these two curse-type witchcrafts had to come after the third witchcraft.

The third witchcraft, which even Adams had not mastered, was named "High-Temperature Force Field."

Judging from the name alone, it was a fire-type witchcraft, and moreover, it was a rare force field type of witchcraft.

Witchcraft "High-Temperature Force Field" Effect: Forms a high-temperature spherical force field within a few meters radius around the caster.

According to the sloppy notes in the book, Adams stole this witchcraft because it was a rare force field type, and Adams felt, although it was a fire-type witchcraft, it was very significant for reference.

However, later, Adams found the witchcraft model structure of the "High-Temperature Force Field" a bit complex, making it difficult to master.

More importantly, this witchcraft did not align with his combat philosophy.

Adams preferred to build himself as a "cannon," focusing on learning long-range attack witchcraft, and the "High-Temperature Force Field" only had a range of a few meters, which suddenly diminished his desire to learn it.

However, when Rein saw this witchcraft, what he thought was completely different.

Rein's current combat power, a significant part of it, came from the Knight (Transcendent) profession, meaning he mainly relied on close combat.

The "High-Temperature Force Field" witchcraft seemed to have an inexplicable fit with him.

Imagine, generating temperatures comparable to those under the Sahara Desert's scorching sun within a few meters around oneself, and the enemies would quickly show signs of heatstroke, such as nausea, vomiting, dehydration...

This picture was simply too perfect!

Of course, the above scene was just Rein's imagination; after all, the specific power would only be known after he learned it.

However, since "High-Temperature Force Field" was a fire-type witchcraft, it matched perfectly with Rein's affinity, which was a significant advantage.

That is to say, once Rein mastered this witchcraft, its power could be slightly enhanced.

Besides, this elemental-type witchcraft didn't seem to require any prerequisite studies and could be directly learned, and once mastered, it could be quickly transformed into combat power. S~eaʀᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Therefore, Rein decided to first learn the fire-type witchcraft "High-Temperature Force Field," then the two curses.

Finally, only two Sorcery Scrolls were left.

The creation of a Sorcery Scroll was extremely difficult, but its release was very simple, requiring only a small amount of spirit power to activate the scroll.

There was no need to consider any witchcraft model, affinity, or other matters; it was the best way to quickly enhance a Wizard Apprentice's combat power.

The only downside was that it was expensive!

Just as Rein was about to examine the Sorcery Scrolls, there was a knock at the door from Matteo.

As soon as Matteo entered, he began to report on the investigation,

"Deputy Commandant, we have clarified the identity of that young man; he was not lying and indeed became an employee of Adams's shop about a month ago."

"Additionally, he provided a rather useful piece of information; two days ago, a middle-aged man came to the shop looking for his boss. He feels that the attack you suffered might be related to this middle-aged man."

Upon hearing this, Rein's brow raised; this was very likely.

After all, he had no grievances with Adams, so the attack against him must have been commissioned by someone else.

"Hmm, do you have any specific information about this middle-aged man?" Rein asked.

"Uh... the middle-aged man did not stay long, and Adams dismissed him soon after. So, the young man is not clear about the detailed content of their conversation or the specific identity of the middle-aged man."

"However... sir, I just had someone draw a portrait based on the young man's description. You can have a look," Matteo said, pulling out a rolled-up parchment from his chest, unrolling and presenting it in front of Rein.
