There's something wrong with the cards in Chapter 7!
In the jungle on the outskirts of Bullhorn Town, Fu Xiao had already taken off his shirt, and Grace, not far away, nodded to Fu Xiao.
"Don't worry! With your current ability to concentrate magic, even if the magic gets out of control, it will still be within my control!"
Grace slightly raised her hand, her whole body radiating a faint purple light.
Fu Xiao nodded. Having a mage sent by the empire to protect him was the perfect scenario.
"Then... let me see! What kind of sight will I see?" Grace's eyes were filled with excitement.
Somewhat clumsily, he used the syringe to pull out the dragon, looking at the golden liquid swaying inside the syringe.
Without the slightest hesitation, he injected the potion into his forearm...
As the power of the Wave Dragons began to spread and diffuse within Fu Xiao's body...
A white magic ring unconsciously appeared behind Fu Xiao's head...
"Knock knock!"
After a rapid heartbeat, Fu Xiao knelt on one knee.
Ok?
Has it failed?
Grace's eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of resentment flashing beneath them.
He slightly raised his hand, and a purple magic circle unfolded with Fu Xiao at its center.
"etc!"
Fu Xiao reached out a hand to stop Grace's movement. After a moment of rapid heartbeat, his body did not show any major abnormalities.
A purple dragon appeared on the white magic ring behind him, coiling horizontally around it.
"Buzz!"
In an instant, Fu Xiao was enveloped in white light.
"It's here!" Grace frowned slightly, reminding Fu Xiao, "Little Fu, don't relax, the moment of magic convergence is about to begin!"
Centered on Fu Xiao, a vortex of magical energy formed around him, and Fu Xiao's pupils dilated slightly as he stood at the center.
He could feel the violent magic surging into his magic circle like a gushing spring.
Just as he had anticipated, the property of converting magic into matter instantly calmed the violent magic.
Instead, it is...
An endless source of power!
Is this... the power brought by the Wave Dragon?
This is bad.
If this continues, I will completely lose myself!
"call!"
[Magic +25]
[Advance to Level 2 Mage]
[+1 trait draw]
A string of blue characters appeared in front of Fu Xiao.
Name: Fuxiao Chris
Race: Human
[Class: Mage: Tier 1, Level 1]
[Physical Fitness: 7]
【Strength: 111】
[Agility: 7]
【Intelligence: 14】
【Mental Power: 20】
【Charm: 20】
【Magic Power: 0 (26)】
【Special Feature: Magic to Physical (Silver)】
【Characteristic to be extracted: 1】
The accumulation of magic power allowed him to smoothly advance to the level of a first-level mage. Perhaps the difference in mage level wasn't that significant to him, but...
His strength surged to 111 points, which is eleven times that of an ordinary person.
[Feature extraction begins...]
As the familiar voice rang out, Fu Xiao once again found himself in a chaotic space.
Three familiar special ability cards appeared before my eyes.
[Humans have their language, dogs have theirs (Bronze): You can communicate fluently with all canines! You are their best friend!]
[Born Succubus (Gold): Loses all attributes and transforms them into charm.]
[Sloth's Survival Rules (Bronze): You can hang in trees to feel the warmth of the wood element, rest and recover your vitality, and endure prolonged hunger! (This trait originates from the three-toed sloths that live in the northwestern rainforest region of the Lingxi Empire)]
……
Looking at the special note written on the third characteristic, Fu Xiao thought, "I should thank you for telling me the origin of this characteristic."
However, upon seeing the first familiar feature, he also became certain of one thing.
Even if you didn't choose a certain trait before, it will still be refreshed in the next draw.
This way, you don't have to worry about getting two features you want at once and then not being able to get the one you didn't choose later.
These three characteristics are actually the most practical survival rules for sloths, but they don't waste the opportunity to replace their characteristics.
After replacing the "Dog Language" and "Soft Rice King" traits, Fu Xiao's pupils dilated as he looked at the newly refreshed trait cards...
The card in the middle shimmers with a dazzling seven-colored light.
[Promise and Body (Prism): You will possess absolute drug resistance, immune to all potion side effects, and additionally have the passive trait of [Breaking the Cocoon]. [Breaking the Cocoon]: The potion undergoes unpredictable changes within your absolutely drug-resistant body, ultimately becoming nourishment for this body! You will break free from the cocoon, gaining a comprehensive upgrade! Next [Breaking the Cocoon] day: 7 months from now. You can choose whether to break free. If you miss this [Breaking the Cocoon] day, the next [Breaking the Cocoon] day will be 7 years from now. (It is said that breaking free from the cocoon may produce unknown side effects that do not affect bodily functions... So, what is the price of becoming stronger?)]
???
Promise... Promise? This name reminded him of an old friend from afar.
This "breaking out of the cocoon" characteristic... why don't you just say it's like raising a venomous insect inside my body?
Fu Xiao glanced at the feature that was replaced in the first feature slot.
[Glass Cannon (Gold): Your Constitution is permanently capped at 5 points and cannot be improved. All damage dealt is increased by 100%!]
He completely disregarded the glass cannon's invincibility effect and casually removed its third trait as well...
[Humans have their language, dogs have theirs (Bronze): You can communicate fluently with all canines! You are their best friend!]
No, the dealer!!!
What are you doing? There's something wrong with the cards!
Do I really have to learn this dog language?
After careful consideration, Fu Xiao made her choice...
Prismatic properties [Promise Body]!
Looking at the attribute description alone... this Prism attribute is indeed very well suited to itself.
But... what are the unknown side effects? Fu Xiao didn't know, and didn't want to know!
Since we've chosen to start, we can only go all the way and collect more kinds of potions to prepare for the next day of breaking free from the cocoon.
Based on the cooldown time of the Cocoon Breaking feature, the next one might be 70 years away!
Based on human lifespan, a person can only emerge from their cocoon three times at most in a lifetime.
"Buzz!"
Fu Xiao blinked again, and what came into view was Grace, who looked bewildered and muttered to herself.
"What...are you kidding me? There's absolutely no fluctuation in magic power, and...why hasn't the spell buff created by the Wave Dragons on your spell ring disappeared?"
On the white Dharma ring, a black dragon totem is wrapped horizontally around the Dharma ring to form a small circle.
"Um...Master Mage? Do you have any more?"
"..."
Hearing Fu Xiao's question, Grace was speechless: "Do you think amplification potions are as easy as cabbages? Besides, once you use one, you develop resistance, and the same potion won't work the next time you inject it!"
"However... there are nine types of this Category ① potion in total!"
Nine styles!?
If it can be combined with the "Breaking the Cocoon" effect within the "Promise and Commitment" skill...
Be nice!
Fu Xiao couldn't believe it; was this the legendary "Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin"?
"Then what are we waiting for..."
"Forget about it, I can't make anything else right now, and... the materials are too expensive!" Grace shook her head.
Money is not everything, but nothing is impossible without money.
Even if you traveled through time, a single penny could stump countless heroes.
"Gurgle~"
At that moment, Grace's abdomen emitted a somewhat untimely protest.
She then realized that she had been so focused on studying Fu Xiao that she had only drunk a few glasses of beer from Niujiao Town since this morning.
???
"Ahem!" Grace coughed awkwardly twice. "Um... Xiao Fu! After all this back and forth, does that mean I'm considered your teacher now?"
"Hmm?" Fu Xiao nodded hesitantly. "I guess so?"
Grace put a hand on Fu Xiao's shoulder: "So, shouldn't you show some respect to your teacher at a time like this?"
???
You are a magician dispatched by the empire, while I am just a small-town kid.
However, Fu Xiao still took out his only two remaining copper coins from his pocket... coins engraved with "10".
"This is all the money I have left!"
20 copper coins!
Even in a remote town like Cowhorn, you can only buy a standard-sized croissant.
Grace then took out a 10-copper coin from her pocket.
"Are you even poorer than me?" Fu Xiao complained helplessly.
Grace blushed and lowered her head: "Um... I had a couple too many drinks today... and it's almost the end of the month..."
Thirty copper coins!
The two poor guys looked at each other in bewilderment...
"Aren't you a magician?"
Faced with Fu Xiao's question, Grace brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and said seriously, "Little Fu! You're still young. The adult world is just that cruel and heartless!"
