Preparation! Death Orb Mana Infusion to Store Mana?
Upper Fire Moon, July 15th.
This was the eighth day since arriving in E-Rantel.
Tang Zheng's original plan was to replenish supplies and equipment before heading to the Bahharuth Empire, but the acquisition of the Magic Scroll crafting technique...
...led him to temporarily change his plans, and in these past few days.
Tang Zheng had devoted almost all of his energy to crafting Magic Scrolls, even spending a Skill Point to raise Papermaking to the third tier.
...
Skill: Papermaking (Tier 3)
Cost: 15 MP Effect: Produces 500 sheets of High-Quality Paper.
...
Second-tier Papermaking could produce 700 sheets of second-tier paper, but at the third tier, it only produced 500.
Just like crafting Second-Tier Magic Scrolls, crafting Third-Tier Magic Scrolls also required consuming twenty sheets of third-tier paper.
His current Mana was 28 points, and since he didn't have a true caster class, his Mana only recovered by one point per hour on average.
Over the course of a day, he could use a total of 52 Mana points.
To make a Second-Tier Magic Scroll, he first needed to spend 5 Mana points to create the scroll, then activate the Mana Accumulation enchantment effect, and finally inject the Second-Tier Magic into the scroll.
This process required a total of 25 Mana points.
Crafting a Third-Tier Scroll, on the other hand, required 30 Mana points.
It took more than a day to create a single Third-Tier Magic Scroll and a Second-Tier Magic Scroll.
Eight days had passed.
Including what he made today, Tang Zheng currently had 10 Third-Tier Angel Summoning Magic Scrolls and 5 Second-Tier Angel Summoning Magic Scrolls.
"Ten Flame Archangels should be able to suppress them. Five Guardian Angels will be used to mislead their intelligence."
Tang Zheng sat on the bed in the inn, looking at the 15 Magic Scrolls placed in front of him, his eye bags slightly dark, but his eyes revealed solemnity and seriousness.
"Not enough, need to be more stable, prepare for two more days to make a few more Magic Scrolls.
Thinking of this.
Tang Zheng waved his hand at the Magic Scrolls in front of him, storing them all in the Item Box.
During these past few days, by calculating the time, in order to prevent any loss during the Mana recovery process, Tang Zheng would immediately create Magic Scrolls whenever his Mana was sufficient, regardless of day or night.
This also caused his eye bags to darken, making Tang Zheng inexplicably think of the unlucky days of clocking in back in his previous life.
There was no other way, his current Mana was too scarce, and every point of Mana had to be used rationally.
Although the Magic Swordsman class could increase Mana, at this stage, or rather, before obtaining the Cursed Knight and Valkyrie classes, he most likely wouldn't level up the Magic Swordsman.
Naturally.
Tang Zheng wouldn't waste Experience Points on mid- or high-tier magic classes before that.
This was also why! Tang Zheng had his eyes on Khajiit, one of the twelve disciples of Zuranon, hidden in E-Rantel.
To be precise, it was the Death Orb Magic Item in his possession.
The Death Orb Magic Item.
The most prominent feature was that it was a Magic Item with independent intelligence that didn't exist in the YGGDRASIL game.
Another feature.
Was that it could autonomously absorb negative energy for storage!
This ability wasn't very noticeable in either the anime or the light novel version.
Tang Zheng didn't pay much attention to it at first, but after obtaining the Magic Swordsman class, especially the characteristics displayed by the passive Mana Infusion provided by this class.
A thought suddenly flashed through Tang Zheng's mind.
Whether this passive ability can be combined with the Death Orb's storage capacity.
What is negative energy? For undead spellcasters, it's just another form of Mana or a special kind of energy.
Since the Death Orb can store energy, can it also store Mana? After all, Mana is also a type of energy.
Especially by using the Mana Infusion ability to forcibly infuse Mana into it, turning the Death Orb into a dedicated Mana storage item.
Of course!
This is just Tang Zheng's current guess. Whether it can truly be realized depends on getting his hands on this Magic Item.
After all!
Neither YGGDRASIL nor this other world has potions that restore Mana.
If you want to increase your own Mana, recovery speed, reduce Mana consumption, etc., you can only rely on classes, top-tier Magic Items, or even cash shop items.
Tang Zheng can't compare to the Bone King in these aspects.
Otherwise!
Tang Zheng wouldn't need to provoke Zuranon at this stage.
In the eyes of ordinary people.
Eight Fingers, an underground organization with influence throughout the kingdom, is already a terrifying existence.
Then Zuranon is a secret cult that can threaten various countries!
The entire organization has only 13 people, with twelve high-ranking disciples and an extremely mysterious leader.
In the anime and light novels, only two disciples have been revealed. Besides Khajiit, who is currently in E-Rantel.
The other is Clementine, a member of the Slane Theocracy's strongest scripture, the Darkness Scripture, also known as the 'Clown Girl'.
And Clementine, who possesses strength in the Hero Domain, has at least three disciples stronger than her among the twelve disciples.
As for Khajiit, he doesn't even rank.
Currently, Tang Zheng is unsure whether Clementine has already joined Zuranon.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Tang Zheng had five more Second-Tier Magic Scrolls in his hand. He originally planned to create Third-Tier Magic Scrolls.
However, to make his strategy more deceptive, he prepared some other spells to guard against unexpected situations.
During these past few days.
Tang Zheng rarely left the inn openly, except for making Magic Scrolls. Secretly, he gradually disposed of the beast and Magical Beast corpses he had harvested from the Tove Great Forest.
Especially the Black Green Great Snake, which took quite some time.
His funds had reached 1200 Gold Coins at once, but now, only 600 Gold Coins remained.
To make it easier to move around in the dark, he spent half of his fortune to purchase a Magic Item.
It was already late at night.
The streetlights enchanted with Eternal Light closed in sequence, making the night, obscured by dark clouds, even darker.
"Woof."
The Small Evil Spirit Dog, lying by the window, noticed the darkened street immediately. A Bone Chain extended, nudging Tang Zheng, who was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed, resting.
"Is it time?"
Tang Zheng opened his eyes, glanced in the direction of the window, and picked up the Black Robe that had been placed to the side, wrapping it around himself.
Swish! A magic potion appeared in Tang Zheng's hand. Without hesitation, he gulped it down.
"Stay in the room, you don't need to come out with me this time." Tang Zheng waved his hand at the Small Evil Spirit Dog and said indifferently. A hoarse, middle-aged man's voice came from Tang Zheng's mouth.
This was the effect of the potion he had just drunk. It was cheap, only costing one Gold Coin to temporarily change his voice.
"Woof~" The Small Evil Spirit Dog's light green beast eyes showed disappointment, and the Bone Chains on its body shook a few times.
Step! Tang Zheng had already arrived at the window. With a leap, he easily climbed over the window and landed in the alley below.
