The Boss King actually disguised himself as a novice village chief?!
Chapter 120 - 120 111 The First Mage

120: Chapter 111 The First Mage 120: Chapter 111 The First Mage Blending a Magic Potion for an Upper Rank Supply Flame Knight isn’t difficult; the challenge comes from the scarcity of the key ingredient, as there is no surplus of Superior Calamity Hearts available.

To step off the path of a Supply Flame Knight, Lind needs to prepare a Superior Calamity Heart to successfully ascend to an Upper Rank Supply Flame Knight, and additionally, a Hero Tier Calamity Heart.

In other words, the most sensible progression for Lind is to ascend his Sun’s Testament Great Knight path, as this would make it easier to branch out his “Talent Skill Tree”.

However, he could first consume the Magic Potion prepared in the earlier phases to tune his body’s adaptability to its best and then, once in possession of the Superior Calamity Heart, have Mico blend the Magic Potion directly.

This could greatly shorten the time required.

Mico doesn’t understand Lind’s urgency.

In her eyes, the development at Star Dragon Ridge is already quite impressive, and Lind’s power has leaped forward in just over a month; he shouldn’t be so anxious.

But she still agreed to Lind’s request because he had handed over formulas for three Magic Potion prescriptions for the tiers of Supply Flame Knight to her.

Who could refuse such an upfront benefit?

Tu Ya struggles to control the smile on her face, but the joy in her cheekbones is unstoppable.

After leaving the Magic Potion Shop, Lind went for a round of inspection on the city walls.

Recently, Star Dragon Ridge isn’t as deserted as when the Undead left—NPCs are gradually arriving, bustling about every day.

A sparse drizzle falls from above.

After leaving the city walls, Lind continues to patrol the territory.

Observing the crowded warehouses and houses of Star Dragon Ridge, he stands in front of the wooden notice board in front of the administration hall and reads the continuously updating scores of Undead.

The wind gently sways the tough serrated weeds beside the path, rainfall hitting the leaves continuously, but is stubbornly repelled by them.

“Someone has already gathered enough Points!”

Lind looks at the score board somewhat surprised; he had been quite relentless, yet the Undeads’ grind seems even stronger.

He believes that they will soon rush back to redeem their Magic Potion.

But with the Bunny-toothed Witch’s current ability, brewing a Magic Potion on the Wizard Path should be effortless for her; she’s the formidable person who can single-handedly brew more than twenty pots of healing potion at once.

If pushed, doubling that wouldn’t be a problem.

Such a useful person.

“My lord,” Old Pete approached, holding an umbrella.

Rain wouldn’t dampen Lind’s clothes, as the innate flames and heat within his body would dissipate the moisture before it could reach him.

Unless he was submerged in water, his hair could always remain dry.

“What is it?”

“Renzo has sent back an urgent message, just now,” Old Pete says with a serious expression, “It’s urgent, my lord!”

Lind steps towards the administration hall and picks up the returned letter.

The content isn’t complicated but made Lind frown deeply.

“A Cyclops?”

After opening the Dragon Tooth Mountain path, it should reach the east of Red Dragon Foothills, where lies the New Nobility’s territory, but why would a Cyclops appear there?

According to Renzo, the Cyclops’ strength is definitely above both the Earth Dragon and Lady Serene combined.

A terrifying monster likely at the Hero Tier level at the very least.

It is termed a Calamity because Lind had never encountered a Cyclops before, and the contents of Renzo’s letter also confirmed this.

Before, they said that in the Rand Kingdom, you’d hardly see a few heroes in a lifetime.

Now, before even stepping out of my own patch of land, all kinds of powerful figures are arriving one after another.

And at the same level, the gap in strength between different races can be quite significant.

Even though they’re both Upper Rank, Lady Serene wouldn’t dare stand still and let Lind strike her once, but an Earth Dragon could let Lind hack at it a dozen times.

“Issue a quest,” Lind thought without hesitation, “An emergency quest, subjugation of the Cyclops!

Quest item directive: turn in the Cyclops’s Heart of Calamity.

Reward: participants will gain access to purchase Volcano Monster Bird, plus an increase of one level in camp ranking.”

Gaining one level in camp ranking isn’t much use at the moment, but as long as Lind lists a new Magic Potion route, the Undead can directly exchange for the new potion.

It’s a benefit no one would refuse, especially after enduring the sudden-death grind of earning Points.

The convenience offered by the Volcano Monster Birds can save many Undead a lot of time in running maps and traveling, perhaps leading many Undead directly onto the shortcut of the evil path.

Lind hasn’t opened this feature simply because he’s not afraid of the Undead taking the evil path; he’s just an NPC passerby after all, the game wasn’t developed by him.

He was simply too lazy to tame so many Volcano Monster Birds.

Too many Volcano Monster Birds would take up his control slots for Lost Soul Knights.

Suddenly having an extra 60 Volcano Monster Bird slots is going to be quite troublesome.

But it must be said, the appearance of the Cyclops is like being offered a pillow when you’re sleepy.

Whether the Undead will be able to deal with the Cyclops is not something Lind worries about; they will deal with it eventually since there’s no time limit after all.

This time, Lind won’t be showing up in the role of a butt-wiping nanny; he needs to focus on developing his own NPC forces.

The confrontation with the New Nobility is imminent, and every moment spent improving himself is always worth it.

“If the Lost Soul Knights could reach the Hero Tier, maybe they could subdue the Cyclops.”

Whether attacking or defending, the Cyclops with its gigantic size always holds a distinct advantage—it’s just a pity that the Lost Soul Chains can’t bind anything stronger than themselves.

Killing the goose that lays the golden eggs is the least efficient way to use it, but not taking this egg would be a true waste.

This is also the reason why, despite his successful promotion to Upper Rank, he’s not too interested in the Lost Soul Knights.

They’re somewhat useful as support, but not that useful.

The quest to subjugate the Cyclops wasn’t even issued yet, and the Undead who rushed back to exchange points for the Wizard Path Magic Potion have already returned.

Lind subscribes to the principle of selling goods if there’s money to be made, and besides, the contributions made by the other party are already sufficient to exchange for dozens of Magic Potions.

It’s not feasible to squeeze them further.

After all, there are other means to exploit following promotion.

If by any chance they die accidentally, they will be dropped from level 11 to level 10 due to the current beta testing’s level 10 cap.

They’ll still need to come back for more potions.

However, Lind feels that he should add a restriction that points exchanged for Magic Potion can only be used by the individual, aid in ingestion, and not allow the Undead to directly take it away.

Otherwise, many whales who spend a lot would disrupt the balance of the game.

Whether allowing the whales to spend money directly on purchasing Magic Potion for them, or to pay others to help gather materials and grind points, then exchange those points for Magic Potions, the advantages of the latter are clear at a glance.

Points are not the goal, the materials, and other profits are what matter.

The first Mage successfully class-changed at the Star Dragon Ridge outpost!

The news spread like a snowball.

Elegantly hurling Fireballs and casting various dazzling magics, the Mage is what the majority adore.

You can be weak, but you can’t be uncool.

And with the previous skill display by the NPC debut at Harbor Village, no one would think the Mage feeble.

Some even suspect that perhaps the T0 has already arrived.
