Chapter 283: Chapter 283

Forget it, it’s not worth worrying about, let’s just see if there’s anything beneficial for me.

Du You continued browsing. Despite the Spellcaster profession being a bit troublesome, there was still plenty to choose from. Thus, acquiring spellcasting skills and equipment was no easy task.

However, in his search, Du You found a unique item on the list.

Magic Wand: Dissolution Spell (1/1)

"Dissolution Spell, I think I’ve heard of it somewhere. It’s a powerful spell. Wait, wristwatch, find the information for me."

Du You thought of his wristwatch. Although buying things on the Magic Network was frustrating, researching information was quite convenient.

Soon, Du You found what he needed. The so-called Magic Wand was a type of disposable item exclusive to spellcasters, similar to a Magic Scroll. It was made by spellcasters while mages made scrolls.

Both were single-use items that could encapsulate a spell for later release. They didn’t consume much magic power, and their power was fixed, providing substantial benefits at times.

However, not many spells could be crafted into a Magic Wand. This craft was known to natives, and only a few professionals could do it. Crafting a Magic Wand required a series of ancillary skills.

Although those with auxiliary professions could craft it, they generally wouldn’t choose to do so. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵⚑𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⚑𝓷𝓮𝓽

Therefore, this Magic Wand came from a quest in the Other World or was looted.

However, the Magic Wand held another skill for professionals. It could unlock the skill encapsulated in the wand, recovering the original skill and making it their own—just like a skill scroll.

The process of restoring this skill, however, required a significant number of Crystal Coins. For most skills, the cost outweighed the benefits. Top-tier skills were particularly costly. Du You wondered about the skill’s cost and efficiency.

Du You had decided he had to get this skill no matter what. The Dissolution Spell would be incredibly useful.

Dissolution Spell: This spell uses magical power to break down opponents’ magic resistance, reducing it by (level/2) and lasting for one minute. The effect diminishes with each advancing tier.

"There’s no way around it. Even if the cost is high, I have to get this skill."

Du You didn’t know how many Crystal Coins it would take to restore this skill. But he decided he had to get it. Having saved up for over half a month, he had collected close to nine thousand coins.

He had initially planned to learn a few more spells. But apparently, that was no longer possible. Nonetheless, given his rapid pace of gaining new skills, this wasn’t a big issue.

He reminded himself of his initial struggles against the heavily armed warriors. Not only was his spell weak, but the opponent’s magic resistance was also incredibly high. The Dissolution Spell was a perfect fit for him.

After reducing magic resistance, even Heavily Armed Warriors of the same level wouldn’t stand a chance against his spells.

In the future, he wouldn’t be shackled by creatures with high magic resistance. Du You didn’t know whether this skill was listed because no one recognized its value, or for some other reason. Regardless, now that he’d found it, he planned to get it no matter what. Conveniently, he had what the other party wanted.

The trading items needed to be bow-type weapons or skills, or one-time powerful attacking tools.

What was this person planning to do? A vague hunch started forming in Du You’s mind. It seemed the other party had a plan to execute, or perhaps they had stumbled upon a challenging target in a world, which was why they were offering this item.

Either way, this worked in his favor. Without a second thought, Du You offered up the Shadow Hunting Bow.

Falcon Bow: Maximum draw force 8, can automatically gather Dou Qi to form arrows, ignores resistance, gravity. The Dou Qi arrows can travel up to one thousand kilometers (0.8 miles). (Bright White)

The bright white quality could automatically form Dou Qi arrows, which was perfect for Dou Qi-type archers. Du You was unsure of the other party’s type and hesitated, fearing the trade might be unsuccessful.

However, he steeled his resolve and asked the attendant to negotiate with the other party.

The person on the other end didn’t hide his face. It was an ordinary-looking woman. After seeing his bow and its description, she nodded slightly, then turned off the communication.

After a while, she turned it back on and said to Du You, "Wait a moment, I’m coming over to trade."

Du You was taken aback. Was the trade being negotiated by someone other than the woman? It was odd that the wand’s owner wanted to stay hidden while the trader didn’t.

Nevertheless, when the other party arrived at the auction house and confirmed that the Magic Wand was indeed what he needed, Du You immediately chose to make the trade. "Panel, calculate the requirements for turning this into a skill."

When the requirements appeared, Du You’s eyes widened, "No wonder the trade was so easy. If it was anyone else, they’d think they’d fallen into a trap. It costs ten thousand Crystal Coins just to transform it into a spell. If you want to perfect it, you need at least fifteen thousand. With so many Crystal Coins, most people would have already advanced to the second tier."

Despite being Crystal Coins, it was difficult even for someone from a powerful background to amass fifteen thousand. It would seem like a losing deal. Only a monster like Du You could afford this many Crystal Coins.

"Alright, let’s give it our all and get it right after the final exam." The Dissolution Spell was one that could directly reduce an opponent’s magic resistance. Few professionals would possess such a skill.

After further browsing, Du You swapped the Emperor Crocodile Belt he had replaced for a Dark Element Stone.

"I didn’t expect to find a Dark Element Stone here. What a pleasant surprise." Du You felt that his luck today was truly good. He continued browsing but didn’t find any other items he needed.

There were good items, but he didn’t have anything to trade for them. He closed the list and left the auction house.

He wandered around the market outside the auction house. When he didn’t find anything he needed, Du You returned to his residence using his self-driving car. He spent the rest of his time fervently cultivating advanced and basic skills.

The final exam was imminent, and the closer it got, the higher the tension. He felt uneasy if he didn’t do something. Du You locked himself indoors for the next few days as time flew by. One day, the wristwatch suddenly lit up. It turned out Fang Shuo had returned.
