  Chapter 339 new task

   "Is it the thing that was said on New Year's Eve?" Colin raised his brows and asked aloud when he heard Shelley's words.

   "Yes." Shelley nodded.

  Colin hesitated, then asked curiously:

   "Is it convenient to ask what you are going to do?"

  Shelley stared at him, with a rare look of embarrassment on his exquisite face.

   "If it's inconvenient, don't force it. I'm just asking casually." Seeing this, Colin smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I will also leave Neustadt for a while tomorrow."

  Shelley glanced at him, and subconsciously wanted to ask more questions, but quickly realized that something was wrong and closed his mouth.

   "It's the materials needed to go to the neighboring small countries to practice some witchcraft." Colin said proactively, but he didn't hide too much.

   Shelley nodded slightly, but did not continue to ask more questions.

   "That's it, Mr. Shelley, I wish you a smooth trip." Colin paused and continued with a smile.

   After speaking, he turned around and left.

   "Colin—" Shelley behind him stared at his figure, his eyes flickered for a moment, then suddenly stopped him in a low voice, and asked slowly:

   "What do you think of pure-blood families?"

  Colin turned his head slowly, with a little surprise on his face, he thought for a while and said calmly:

   "Not too fond of it."

  Although the pure-blood family is adhering to the order on the surface for the time being, it has not brought him any substantial harm.

   But that didn't stop Colin from hating them.

  The mandatory task that was suddenly assigned at the beginning of the month, and later he got a piece of news by bribing the wizard on duty——

  His mission was temporarily assigned... Although there is not much information about this, it is enough to make Colin sit down and guess.

  With the arrival of the mandatory mission, it was obvious that the pure-blood family was putting pressure on him.

  ... Those people are used to being noble, and they always feel that everything has to be done according to their wishes.

  Hearing Colin's answer, Shelley didn't change much, but nodded slightly.

   "I wish you the best of luck." She said seriously.

   "Yeah." Colin nodded.

  After he left, Shelley did not return to the laboratory.

  As mentioned before, she will also leave Neustadt for a period of time tomorrow, so she will naturally have to make some preparations today.

   Originally, I planned to finish the communication with Colin at noon and start preparations in the afternoon, but now that Colin has gone back, the communication at noon is naturally gone.

  Then Shelley has no reason to stay here any longer.

  Through the side door behind the castle of true knowledge, Shelley put on a hood to cover her conspicuous white hair, and came all the way to a remote alley.

   Then turn left and right, and walked into an ordinary gray bungalow.

   Then, Shelley walked to an inconspicuous corner of the house and waved gently.

  The ground and the wall in front of him suddenly cracked, and a moment later, a dark hole appeared in front of him without sound.

  Shelley did not hesitate, bent down, and walked down the stairs step by step.

  The wall behind her quickly closed without making any sound.

  …

  The next day, the sky was bright.

  After explaining to Renee that if you need help, you can go to the school to seek help from Atbold's mentor, Colin walked out of the house alone.

  The purpose of his going out this time is nothing else, just to find a few materials for casting the net of black mist.

  When he broke the limit of the two disguised witchcraft, time was spared.

  After all, the time for daily meditation is limited, and the commission of custom witchcraft has been completed. The magic stone is still enough for the time being, and there is no rush to break the limit of witchcraft to sell.

  After all, Colin is more willing to give priority to improving his own strength than earning magic stones.

   And if you want to improve your strength, the Black Mist Net is naturally the top choice.

  Colin has already mastered this witchcraft, and only needs some materials to make it play its due role.

   It's a pity that there is no place for him to obtain materials in this huge city of Neustadt.

  The same goes for the Kingdom of Neustadt that surrounds it.

  Those death row prisoners have long been pre-ordered by the schools in the city.

   Otherwise he wouldn't have gone out.

   Fortunately, witchcraft like this is not mainstream, and the supply of death row prisoners still exceeds demand.

   There is no need to go too far, as long as you go a little farther, such as the Kingdom of Fabados that you have been to before, you can get materials, and the death row there has not yet been booked.

  Thinking all the way, Colin stood on the teleportation array.

   Following a flash of light, his figure gradually disappeared.

  A moment later, a gray-brown-haired, green-eyed sorceress with thick glasses also stepped into the hall of the General Teleportation Administration.

  She was wearing a gray robe and thick glasses, she looked like an inconspicuous female academic.

  Beside the green-eyed witch, there are two figures, one tall and one short.

  The tall one is a woman. She looks ordinary in appearance, but if you look closely, you can find that there are tiny orange lightnings swimming in her white eyes, which is full of oppression.

  The other slightly shorter male wizard was lackluster, looking like an ordinary old wizard with a wrinkled face.

  After paying the teleportation fee, not long after, it was the turn of the green-eyed witch, and she walked towards the teleportation circle.

   "I wish you a smooth trip, Master Bing Ji." The old wizard spoke first, his voice a little hoarse.

   "Master Bing Ji, do you really not need someone to accompany you?" Another female wizard said suddenly, with an indelible worry on her face.

   "No need." The green-eyed witch shook her head, "I am the only one who can go there. If there is any danger, no amount of people will help."

  The two wizards fell silent without saying anything more.

  ………

   On the other side, after several hours of trekking, Colin arrived at Nanau, the capital of Fabados Kingdom, before noon.

  The familiar Lepo River has been frozen at this time, and many boats in the past have disappeared, leaving only a few fishermen with fishing lines fishing in the thin ice.

  The reason why I chose to come here is not only the proximity, but also the familiarity.

  Familiarity can save a lot of unnecessary time consumption.

   It only took an hour for Colin to contact the Nanao royal family through Hawthorne, a familiar big real estate developer.

  Afterwards, apart from the annoying smell of powder on the bodies of the two accompanying princesses, nothing else happened.

  Colin successfully exchanged a few magic stones for nine condemned prisoners.

  Actually, before coming here, it wasn’t that he hadn’t thought about using other methods to obtain materials, such as going to the Kingdom of Neustadt outside the city of Neustadt to try to find it.

  Although the Supreme Council does not allow the indiscriminate killing of ordinary people, as a first-order wizard, he has countless ways to overcome this constraint.

   The easiest way is to go to the slave market in the Kingdom of Neustadt to buy some slaves.

  But Colin didn't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately. There was no big reason, and it wasn't even good or evil.

  He just didn't want to, didn't like it.

  But countless philosophers have said that unwillingness, unwillingness, and dislike... are the biggest reasons in themselves.

  Colin thinks so.

   But now it seems that coming to Fabados is not bad, the efficiency is not much worse than buying slaves directly, and they are all death row prisoners. In addition, they can complete the black mist transformation here by the way.

  Colin rejected the residence provided by the royal family and chose to live in the original villa.

  After he left, Hawthorne kept the villa and never rented it out again.

   Except for sending people to clean it regularly, the interior layout has not been touched... It is considered intentional.

   "Your Excellency Nader, I wonder how long you will stay here this time?" Hawthorne asked as he accompanied him into the villa.

  Colin glanced at him with a calm expression.

   Hawthorne's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly added:

   "It's like this. I saw that you didn't bring your previous maid with you this time, so I want to ask if you need to arrange a few maids to handle chores for you."

   "No need, just send some food every day." Colin shook his head, and then added in detail: "For the first three days, it will be delivered to 15 people, and then three people will be delivered every day."

  After being transformed by the black mist, those condemned prisoners no longer need to eat.

  After all, at that time, they were no longer strictly human beings, and could survive purely by absorbing magic power, so they did not need to eat and excrete like humans.

  As for the extra share that was required in the past few days, in addition to his own needs, it was also prepared for the prisoners.

  After all, Colin planned to strengthen them into great knights before carrying out the transformation of the black mist.

   "Okay, Mr. Nader." Hawthorne nodded heavily, and subconsciously looked behind his eyes, feeling a little chilled in his heart.

  After the death row prisoners got off the prison car at the door, they turned into a walking dead, obediently following behind the two of them.

  However, although Hawthorn was a little scared, he didn't feel anything.

  The previous contact made Hawthorne understand that the wizard in front of him was not an evil person, or... although he didn't know whether it was good or bad, he was at least a wizard with a bottom line.

   "How is your daughter?" Colin asked suddenly.

   "Are you talking about Wen Xi... Thanks to you, Wen Xi has already gone to the city of wizards and successfully joined the school."

   Hawthorne's tone was a little proud.

   "Very good." Colin nodded slightly, but was a little surprised.

   After all, when the test was done, the girl's talent was not top-notch, and she was not too young.

  He thought Wen Qian would fail the entrance examination...

  But who can tell clearly about the circumstances of life?

  Colin shook his head and walked forward with the death row prisoners.

  …

   Just a day later.

   Those death row prisoners with varying physical fitness were catalyzed into great knights by Colin's blood pattern transformation technique after breaking the limit.

   On the second day, he used his first-level knight's grudge to eliminate the negative effects of the blood-streaked modification technique as much as possible, so as to prevent it from having a bad impact on the black mist modification to be carried out later.

  Without considering future development and bodily harm, after some operations, these death row inmates have increased slightly.

  Although he is still in the grand knight stage, he has already reached the top of what ordinary people can achieve.

   So far, the preparation work has been successfully completed.

  For the web of black mist, the best material is a wizard who is also a knight, followed by a single wizard, then a single knight, and finally an ordinary person.

   But everything is relative.

  Materials that have reached the top level of a great knight like Colin's now are naturally much better than ordinary apprentice wizards who only have middle and low levels.

  If he can normally apply for human body materials in the school, he can probably only apply for materials of this quality at most.

  Of course, if you want to give full play to the power of the Black Mist Net, the best material for casting spells is naturally a first-order wizard.

  If Almighty uses a first-level high-level wizard as a material, the power that this witchcraft can display in the end can be compared to a second-level middle-level witchcraft, and even some second-level high-level witchcraft can be comparable.

   But obviously, for the current Colin, let alone using first-level senior wizards as materials, he can't even get wizard materials.

  The status of an official wizard is extremely high, and the materials needed by the net of black mist are still alive.

  Generally speaking, the number of materials required for the Black Mist Web is six.

   There can be more or less, but at least three and at most eighteen.

  Six is ​​the best choice. If there are more, it can only increase the number of black mist puppets—also known as shadows of silence, but cannot increase the strength of the black mist armor and other auxiliary blessings on the body.

  Six official wizards as materials... Even the original Aki couldn't get it together.

  So when fighting at that time, the armor of black mist blessed by Axi can only be regarded as the top level of the second-order lower ranks.

  The Summoning Fire Elemental from the gold paper breaks the limit is also the top-level witchcraft in the lower ranks of the second level. In addition, Axi was exhausted by the initial tug-of-war, and finally lost to him.

  The reason why Colin bought nine death row prisoners this time was mainly because of the failure of the reformation. After all, it was his first time to practice with living people.

  In addition to being extremely powerful in theory, the Black Mist Net also has another benefit--extremely low magic power consumption.

   This consumption is so low that it is almost equal to or even lower than the mana consumption required to maintain the spiritual mist.

   After all, the main part of the net of black mist - the transformation material.

   It's done before the battle.

  During the battle, what Colin needs to pay is mainly to summon the magic power of the Armor of Black Mist.

  As for the magic power to maintain the armor of black mist, more is provided by each shadow of silence.

  They are like magic power nodes, connected together to weave a big net, providing the host with defense, magic replenishment and other effects.

  If you insist on comparison, this witchcraft should be regarded as the strongest witchcraft that Colin currently masters.

  Even the complete set of witchcraft rewarded by the Supreme Council—Temper Ring Binding, can’t compare.

   Unfortunately, excellent material is really hard to find.

  Using only the great knight as a material can at best make the net of black mist have the level of Axi, or even slightly inferior.

   After all, Aki must have used wizard apprentices as material.

   But it doesn't matter, it can increase a little bit of combat power, anyway, the consumption is low, and it can coexist with the steel temperature-resistant force field.

  Time passes quietly like running water.

  The time it takes to transform the material is faster than Colin imagined.

  Only the sixth day after arriving in Nanao, he embarked on the return journey.

  In fact, Colin also had to set foot on the way back.

  Because on the sixth day, which was also the morning of February 1st in the Yanamanan calendar, after the school badge on his body flickered for a while, the familiar words reappeared—

   "Your Excellency Colin Leonard, please go to the school to receive the second mandatory mission of this year."
