Chapter 257 - 257: 116. Interrupt abruptly
Noland Lee sat at the table, and in his mind, he accessed books related to wands.
The Use, Crafting, and Improvement of Death Wands
How to Nurture a Wand with Love
Processing and Synthesis of Wand Cores
When he first got these three books, Noland was consumed by them, thinking he was going to be forced to become a magic craftsman.
Now, on a second look, they seem incredibly appealing.
Noland casts Deconstruction Technique on these three books, with a requirement of having 13 Spirit points or more.
With 20 Spirit points, Noland is already overqualified.
He directly consumes 20 Energy Points to digest them.
The completion of the first two books is 100%.
The completion of “Processing and Synthesis of Wand Cores” is only 50%.
At that time, when Noland couldn’t deconstruct the spell he wanted from the bone-mending wand, he immediately gave up.
Now thinking back, he is a bit regretful…
If the completion of “Processing and Synthesis of Wand Cores” could reach
100%, it would undoubtedly provide great help in the work to come.
However, regrets are now useless.
Noland can only remind himself in his heart that as long as his energy is sufficient, he shouldn’t be too stingy, lest he miss out on the chance to acquire high-return knowledge.
He calmed himself down, quickly reviewing all the wand-related knowledge in his mind.
As the deconstructed knowledge becomes vivid, rows of system messages appear in front of Noland.
[You have acquired knowledge related to wands.] [You have gained two new skills:]
[Wand Making Science, Scholarly Skill, Level 10]
[This skill is related to the crafting, improvement, maintenance, and processing of wands, representing your professional level in the field of handmade wands.]
[You can now craft wands with an Item Level of up to 10.]
[Note that the specific effect of personally crafting and processing wands needs to be tested through practical actions.]
[2.]
[Mastery of Death Wands, Passive Skill, Level 10.]
[This skill is only related to the effectiveness of using death wands. You can now use death wands with an Item Level of up to 10. This skill can be upgraded by reading books and investing Energy Points.]
[The “Mark of Resentment” you have grasped has changed, and the panel information in the “Usage: Remodel” category has been updated, as follows:]
[New Usage:]
[Wand Making]
[Using emotions to guide energy is one of the essential courses for wand-wielding casters.]
[Wand makers can imbue extreme emotions into the wand core, allowing the extreme emotions to guide the wand’s energy flow, concentrating all the wand’s energy on one point. In this way, there will be no dispersion of the wand’s energy.]
[You can now use the “Mark of Resentment” to collect extreme negative emotions and engrave them on the wand core to give the wand the “Energy Concentration (Emotion-guided)” feature.]
“New usage, wand making… Could it be that I will have to dabble in sword selling later on…?”
Noland’s lips twitched slightly, and his gaze shifted to the threaded wand in front of him.
Aiming at the wand, he cast Deconstruction Technique again, and this time the system feedback was quite different from before.
[System Message: You are about to launch Deconstruction Technique on the “Flawed Death Threaded Wand”.]
[You have previously deconstructed it, with a completion of 2%.]
[Now, based on your wand knowledge and skills, the Energy Points required for deconstruction have dropped from 30 points per 1% to 8 points per 1%.]
[It is estimated that consuming 784 Energy Points will increase the deconstruction completion to 100%.]
[Do you confirm the deconstruction?]
“Not bad, not bad. Knowledge is power. With the addition of scholarly skills, the amount of energy consumed for active deconstruction has greatly decreased. I wonder if the energy gained through passive deconstruction will also decrease… It should.”
With nothing to do, Noland simply closed his eyes and called up books in his mind to read.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
The sound of knocking on the door.
Philia gently pushed the door open and entered the guest room.
She smiled at the wide-eyed Noland and said:
“Ray Lee, my teacher has accepted your suggestion. I will take you to the magic laboratory. In at most 10 minutes, we will have the venue ready and bring you a Sand Iris Cat.”
Philia picked up the metal box on the table, extended her hand towards the door, and left the guest room with Noland.
Noland steadied his excited heart, trembling hands, and muttered to himself, “There will be many more lucrative opportunities like this in the future. I must remain calm and composed.”
He followed behind Philia, walked through the shiny marble corridor, and passed by columns of light projected from colored glass.
The two of them arrived at the castle’s first-floor magic laboratory.
This was Noland’s first encounter with the legendary magic laboratory.
Everything here was quite a novelty to him.
Floating magic brooms, hovering two or three feet above the ground.
Bookshelves that automatically align the spines of books.
A magic kettle that would brew a hot cup of tea when guests arrived.
And the ink pen that automatically dipped in ink and copied books onto blank notebooks.
Noland had only seen these items in games and movies before.
Now, he had to pretend to be familiar with them, control his curious gaze, and avoid looking like a country bumpkin coming to the city.
“Here is the visitor’s magic laboratory, Ray Lee. We are now in the laboratory hall. There are eight doors on the surrounding walls, corresponding to eight different test areas with different purposes..”
