Chapter 265: Chapter 219 Very Fragrant_2

Back at home, the living room lights were off. Zheng Yichen entered the bedroom but found no one there, so he immediately went to the witch’s workshop where both witches were present.

They were engrossed in researching new items. After Zheng Yichen had stared for half an hour, they finally put aside what they were doing. It seemed that if he had not come tonight, these two witches would have pulled an all-nighter.

"What interesting things did you discover?"

"First is the new hair you brought back." Alina held a black hair in her hand, "The divinity in this hair is a bit stronger."

She smiled at Zheng Yichen. The change in the hair indicated that Zheng Yichen had undergone a new transformation. Even if his concept of humanity remained unchanged, his physique would surpass that of the human race. If Zheng Yichen continued to improve like this, Alina could predict his final state.

A person with a divine body?

"What can this thing be used for? Is it a blessing artifact or a curse artifact?"

"It can also be used as a spellcasting material, but it’s better to make it into a spellcasting artifact." Alina said. In her world, just one strand of Zheng Yichen’s hair would sell for a high price among witches. Hair is important, but what’s more important is the divinity contained within it.

With just one hair, she could easily subdue any spirit summoned by necromancy, no matter how ferocious or enraged it was.

Katrina said that if used as a spellcasting material, most of the difficult mental and physical abnormalities could be eliminated by Blessing Magic, and the protection would become more absolute.

Initially, the amulet she made could be penetrated by a Supreme Demon to affect dreams. But with this material, it would be different unless the Supreme Demon itself came, it wouldn’t even dream of remotely affecting people’s dreams.

"Then there’s this skull. It can be made into a Subduing Item, and I can also try to summon a powerful soul with it and then use it to cultivate a very formidable guardian spirit," Eileena said while looking at the skull Zheng Yichen had brought back.

The quality of the skull was much better than the hair Zheng Yichen had cut, and its uses were notably diverse.

"Which do you think is the better choice?"

"You decide," Zheng Yichen waved his hand. He didn’t know much about the power of witches. As for how to maximize the value of such things, of course, it’s up to them to decide.

"Then let’s cultivate a powerful guardian spirit," Alina made the decision. The skull, with its divine power, was the perfect item for something like a life container, especially since it was connected to the Supreme Demon and brought back by Zheng Yichen. They recognized this type of power.

Compared to that power, even though the skull’s energy originated from a different place than the martial arts world, some of its power still had significant similarities.

To cultivate a powerful guardian spirit, an appropriate soul must be found. Any random soul could be used, but its potential and aptitude would not be good enough for significant growth.

"And we just happen to have the right conditions. I can use necromancy to slowly search for the suitable soul, and you can use your fishing rod to find one. I will make you a container to hold the soul," Alina said.

Listening to Alina, Zheng Yichen felt that the witch was becoming more like a necromancer. But considering her expertise in necromantic skills, it seemed quite reasonable. In a low-magic environment, necromancy spells couldn’t do much— at most, summon a few zombies or walking corpses.

Forget about creating an army of the Undead. Even raising zombies would require sneaking into graveyards for suitable corpses, and getting discovered could easily lead to being eliminated.

With a higher level of necromantic skill, naturally, there would be more room for manipulation. Since it’s a spell involving souls, it seemed normal to resemble necromancy, right?

"Then that’s settled," Zheng Yichen thought about the skull made into a guardian spirit container, considering it would be nice to have a powerful ally.

He was a Proxy Agent, without Dusk mercenaries liking to team up with him, and cooperating with natives didn’t always guarantee meeting the right people. The difference between him and a Boundary Breaker was that Boundary Breakers had a lot of time, while he was the last to rush in and save the day.

If you can’t extinguish the fire, you perish with it.

"Also, with the blood of those extraordinary creatures, I can try crafting some Magic Potions, ones that temporarily grant the related traits of living beings,"

The strength of a bear, the speed of a leopard, that’s what Eileena said before, of course, this is just a metaphor. Even if one gains the related strength, it won’t be exactly the same as the blood donor, just an additional bonus.

Zheng Yichen thought for a moment, "This research could indeed be delved into further, I’ll try to get you guys some channel authorization.

What he referred to as channel authorization was the special kind provided by the Ahn family, anyhow, since returning, everything Zheng Yichen had bought was through a secret channel, normal or not, and even items slightly against the rules could be obtained.

Once I give them this authorization, they will also be able to acquire some rare items they desire when I am not at home.

For example, the blood of an extraordinary creature.

"Also, research can be exhausting, remember to rest early,"

"We can’t really consider ourselves ordinary witches now," Eileena smiled, "But let’s call it a day today, some things won’t yield immediate results upon research.

Zheng Yichen’s hair is very useful, and there’s a lot of it. Although there won’t be more for a while after Zheng Yichen’s recovery back to normal, the hair he left behind and the batch he brought back this time should last for quite some time.

The next day, Zheng Yichen went to the Dusk Cathedral to make equipment and such. When it comes to professionalism, Dusk Cathedral was the place, although their process of making things was kept secret.

Zheng Yichen was very skeptical whether the production here was a kind of one-click synthesis mode.

Of course, his visit wasn’t about creating any new equipment, something that could be decided later when a new mission arose. Their fabrication and processing speed here was too quick: give the items, pay the money, allocate the merit points, and soon enough, you would get what you needed.

He was here to deliver goods. Before Chiang Wei had helped him get a lot of technological data, and now that he had returned, he prepared some additional things for that girl; the technology of Hazy City might not compare to her world, but unique items still existed here, as well as copies of martial arts rare manuals.

Then, it was Qi Xiangyun’s turn. Zheng Yichen opened the deposit box on her side, taking out a lot of envelopes, which basically contained events happening on their side during this time. The envelopes left by Qi Xiangyun were the most, Liu Hongzhao’s were the fewest, and there was even a break in correspondence at one point.

Zheng Yichen wondered if that girl had run into some troubles?

But after reading all these letters, he relaxed a bit. Qi Xiangyun’s Qi Family Town, which she wanted to rebuild, was now somewhat lively. Their world had undergone a great disaster, with a sharp decline in population and the land filled with various aberrant creatures. Yet, humans were starting to adapt to these conditions.

Qi Xiangyun now had gathered some children and began cultivating them from a young age in some basic Mechanical Techniques. Nevertheless, she encountered some obstacles in teaching, not because she couldn’t teach, but because of the lack of usable manpower; she was too young.

Zheng Yichen thought about it and decided to arrange for some things from Chiang Wei to be sent over to Qi Xiangyun.

As for Lin Yaoyao, this girl studied medicine very seriously, and she had talent in this area. She even noticed some issues by observing aberrant creatures; some were starting to regain their sanity. However, those aberrant creatures that had regained their sanity were different from their original forms.

Instead of saying they regained their sanity, it was more like a new self was generated, completely different from their original existence, which made Zheng Yichen think of zombies that had evolved in another world.

And Liu Hongzhao’s letters were quite straightforward.

——In closed-door cultivation.
