Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start-Chapter 312 - 178: Or: I Have an Elder Brother (Part 2)

Chapter 312: Chapter 178: Or: I Have an Elder Brother (Part 2)

This time, there was a lot of material, and Baiyi carefully examined it.

The Human Race has its own script, and the Elf Race has its own script.

On the Xiya Continent, there are many types of script, among which the script of the Gods has always been studied by scholars.

The characters they use are the oldest, and they contain traces of the Power of Rules. For example, the word ’fire’ in the God’s script carries warmth.

It’s very mysterious.

There are two hidden professions called Rune Master and Daoist, both deriving from these rule-based scripts.

However, these professions are very rare. Daoists are more common, using scripts to invoke the magic power in the world to unleash power. In Dawn, this profession also exists but in small numbers.

The legacy of the Rune Master profession has been broken, and there are virtually no Rune Masters left in the Three Great Federations.

Baiyi is searching for the God’s script primarily to translate the Divine Inscriptions.

It might be useful, or it might not, but as long as there’s time, learning one more script is quite beneficial. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

After purchasing this knowledge, Baiyi turned and left the Knowledge Hall.

He headed to the Mage Academy on the west side of the Inner City District.

The current schools in the Inner City District are basically vocational schools, where Mages teach Mages, and Warriors teach Warriors.

This division greatly improves the quality of education. Of course, the schools in the Inner City mainly enroll the children of Transcendents. In the ordinary schools of the Outer City District, only the outstanding ones can be selected to enter the Inner City.

Amidst the respectful greetings, Baiyi found Heidinger, who seemed a bit more spirited.

Back then, Baiyi created three bottles of the Source of Life, one for Heidinger, Eric, and Aisha each.

However, the only downside is that it can’t be consumed twice. Otherwise, these old powerhouses could have maintained their peak state indefinitely.

[Effect of the Source of Life: Significantly restores the vitality of the body, replacing bodily functions for a certain period of time.]

"I watched your battle, and it was impressively beyond imagination," Heidinger, no longer worried about Baiyi, gradually leaned towards Eric in mindset.

After all, he originally came from the Capital City and knew well the combat prowess of the Official Letter, not inferior to some of the weaker legislators.

Baiyi’s ability to defeat the Official Letter meant he had sufficient self-defense power within the Federation. Although Heidinger still didn’t recommend Baiyi take risks, he was no longer overly concerned about Baiyi venturing out.

"Mr. Heidinger, the reason I came to you this time is mainly to ask you to create a potion for me." Baiyi spoke directly, handing over the formula he just purchased to Heidinger, while taking out the thumb-sized Soul Lantern from the lining of his Death God Robe.

Now the Soul Lantern was filled with purple energy, the brilliance of a large Soul Crystal Core, representing the Soul Lantern’s potential to reach the quality and energy of a large Soul Crystal Core.

This wasn’t surprising, as the Soul Lantern contained the souls of over twenty Golden Powerhouses, and along with Baiyi’s slaughters, the accumulated soul energy was astonishing.

Heidinger, somewhat surprised, accepted the Soul Lantern and potion formula, and after carefully examining the energy within the Soul Lantern, nodded with a smile, "It can be done, but it’ll take some time... come back in half a month, as some auxiliary materials need to be found."

Baiyi bowed slightly, "Thank you."

After speaking, he turned and quickly returned to the Dawn Potion Shop.

Outside, he could be more leisurely, but upon returning, Baiyi discovered that many tasks awaited him.

"Boss, you’re back!"

A voice full of surprise rang out, and Luoning’s face was all smiles, her eyes sparkling with genuine joy.

Her eyes kept darting behind Baiyi, seemingly searching for someone.

"You’ve reached Bronze Upper Tier? Want some reward?" Baiyi first praised her, then asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Luoning was only thirteen years old, just a middle school student on Blue Star, and even in Dawn, still just a child. Baiyi was quite gratified by her rapid progress.

For example, the ongoing war outside Dongwu City, if not for Luoning, this war might have spread to Dongwu City.

When Luoning reaches Gold, any threatening moves or enemy plans would probably become apparent, ensuring Dongwu City’s security.

"I don’t want a reward; I’m quite satisfied with things now, but Boss, where’s the boss lady? Didn’t you bring her back?" Luoning asked with bright, expectant eyes.

"She couldn’t come this time, maybe in a few years." Baiyi said helplessly, seeing Luoning wanting to ask more, he smoothly changed the topic, "Where’s Aileen?"

"Sister Aileen went out; she said she’s on a month’s vacation. But Boss, our coordination has met your standards, we haven’t been slacking." Luoning said earnestly.

Baiyi said nothing. That pure elf worker mindset; there’s nothing particularly bad about that, and with Mina around, nothing should go wrong.

"I know, but you still deserve a reward. You did very well on the Battle Marvel outside. I’ll save your reward for now. When you decide what you want, tell me, and I’ll try my best to fulfill it."

"Okay." Luoning didn’t refuse again. She took a bottle of milk from the drawer and handed it to Baiyi with a smile, "Want some, Boss?"

Taking the milk, Baiyi took a sip. Though five Silver Coins a bottle now seemed cheap, it was still a flavor he liked, especially since, when Baiyi was struggling financially, this was his favorite thing.

"Train hard, and if anything comes up, contact me." Baiyi said, turning towards the laboratory.

Now it was time to produce exoskeletons. All two thousand Mechanical Modified Warriors were deployed on the battlefield. The remaining eight thousand were still waiting for their opportunity.

"Baiyi..."

The chilling aura made Baiyi stop. Or, concealed by a hood, appeared behind him. His voice was complex. Only a year and a half had passed, and this cunning capitalist surpassed him significantly.

This mix of anger, reverence, and loathing was a tangled web of emotions that even Or couldn’t fully comprehend.

But what he did know was that things couldn’t continue this way; he needed a change. Otherwise, what awaited him might not just be exploitation, but a ruthless erasure, replaced by a stronger worker.

He had a premonition that if he couldn’t continue helping this capitalist, that would be his fate.

Baiyi turned with a smile and asked, "Mr. Or, is there something you need?"

"I want to leave." Or replied bluntly, having nothing to hide in front of a powerhouse, "I can no longer keep pace with you. I believe it won’t be hard for you to find... another replacement."

"But I haven’t found a replacement yet, and you should be at your post now; we’re about to resume making exoskeletons. I need materials." Baiyi said with a smile.

Or became silent, his Soul Fire flickering under the hood. As Baiyi was about to leave again, Or spoke with a barely calm tone, "Let’s make a deal, Baiyi."

"Speak." Baiyi said with a smile; Witch Demons are usually very ancient and hard to deceive.

Because most Witch Demons are Spellcasters whose lifespans are running out, and they choose to undergo Undead Transformation, eventually becoming Necromancers.

Or had probably not been a Witch Demon for long, which is why he was fooled by Baiyi’s contract.

Back then, Baiyi’s contract skills weren’t particularly high.

Or’s Soul Fire flickered more rapidly, seemingly hesitating, with the hood’s interior flashing red and blue.

About ten seconds later, he took a deep breath, his voice hoarse and unpleasant, filled with conflict, "I sensed the aura of a Necromancer on you. I want to temporarily follow her, as an exchange for my departure...."

Or paused again, once more tangled, but soon found relief. He didn’t want to be treated as disposable: "My brother should be a good worker too, and he very much wants to come to Xia...."

Baiyi paused, a smile instantly appearing, he looked at Or with full appreciation, worthy of being a Witch Demon!

"Brother? Tell me more!"
