Chapter 493 - 493 493 Not Leaving a Single Trace
493: Chapter 493: Not Leaving a Single Trace 493: Chapter 493: Not Leaving a Single Trace Undead Mages often encountered other types of Mages attracted to their practices.
Although transforming the foundational magic was challenging, converting it into Death Magic faced fewer restrictions.
Although Undead Mages were considered weaker among Mages, they had their advantages.
For instance, transformation was their biggest advantage.
However, once successful, reverting the transformation was almost impossible.
Still, many Mages would prepare for this.
After all, humans are selfish, whether for themselves or for their family and friends.
There are always people who want to ensure their loved ones continue to survive.
Sometimes, becoming Undead was the simplest and most cost-effective method.
Encountering such people, they often gave Undead Mages some leeway.
Inevitably, there was always a chance that one’s family or friends might need to be transformed.
Even one might need to turn into a Witch Demon, thus living together thereafter.
If you antagonized everyone now, later it could be even more troublesome and dangerous.
In fact, this was also why the Chirali Empire hadn’t completely eradicated them.
Now that they had encountered a hidden ally, their trust in Zhao Guang had increased even more.
If Zhao Guang knew that knowing such things would make the Undead Mages trust him more, he would probably marvel at this unexpected delight.
However, for now, Zhao Guang was unaware of these intricacies.
“Master, what do you need these things for?
You’re not thinking of studying them, are you?”
“If it’s suitable, studying it wouldn’t hurt.
Sometimes, knowledge in other areas can enlighten my own skills.
You know, I’m not like other Mages.”
Indeed, Xi Fei knew that Zhao Guang was a Mage of pure spiritual power.
Such Mages, though initially weak and slow to train, could master almost all types of magic.
Or rather, aside from Divine Arts and a few other magic that relied on external forces, their master could learn everything.
Although Xi Fei was puzzled as to why the master progressed so quickly, almost abnormally fast, it was the master’s secret.
If the master chose not to speak of it, Xi Fei would never ask and would even help conceal it.
“Then there’s nothing else, just hoping the master isn’t tempted by the power of death.”
“Don’t worry, it’s not a problem.”
Meanwhile, the Undead had gradually discussed a conclusion.
“In three days, we’ll have everything ready and will send it to you.
However, you need to send someone to pick it up.
If discovered, I think you know the consequences.”
After all, such discoveries wouldn’t impact them much, but it would be different for a Lord like Zhao Guang.
Because historically, there have been incidents where transformed Witch Demons refused to leave, wreaking havoc in their own territories.
Hence, transformation into Witch Demons is strictly prohibited in the Chirali Empire.
Whoever touches this taboo is on a path to death.
Of course, secret dealings are entirely different from public ones.
“Don’t worry, I don’t want this discovered either,” Zhao Guang sent his final message.
As the Undead resumed their discussions, suddenly the notebook in their hands turned pitch black, completely obscuring the text that had been written there.
“What happened here?” The others were stunned by the scene before them.
“Impressive, truly impressive.
Leaving no trace behind makes me even more reassured.”
“You mean, Lord Xuanwu is destroying evidence?” These Mages weren’t fools; they just usually focused their intelligence on research and combat.
On the other side, Zhao Guang dipped his own notebook fully into a pot of ink.
Ensuring all the writing was completely erased, he then contentedly removed it.
“Master, what are you doing?” Xi Fei finally realized what the pot of ink was for.
“Of course, it’s to destroy the evidence.
This thing isn’t safe in the hands of Undead Mages.
If they handed it over to certain individuals, I would be at a disadvantage then,” Zhao Guang explained.
Dealing with Beastmen was justifiable, but dealings with Undead Mages were absolutely not allowed.
Even other Lords on the border wouldn’t just stand by if they knew about this.
Especially if the Empire knew that he sought knowledge concerning Undead Magic, things wouldn’t be smooth at all.
Being targeted by some hostile entities, his position as a Lord could be jeopardized.
Being a Lord was sometimes very useful.
For example, without the position of Lord, collecting Undead Magic wouldn’t have been so easy.
Although not necessarily for use, understanding other knowledge sideways at times could be applied to improve one’s own spells.
In the realms of the soul and death, Undead Magic is indeed unique.
“Alright, take this out and burn it, leaving no trace behind.”
That way, even if the Undead Mages could restore that tainted notebook, no one would believe them.
After all, such things could be forged.
By destroying the Simultaneous Writing Skill on it and restoring it thereafter, it would indeed look much like a forgery.
Unfortunately, sounds like Undead Mages aren’t trustworthy.
Zhao Guang didn’t leave; he was right there at the border outpost.
Aleya didn’t come to the frontline due to her sensitive status, instead sending someone to take the Potions from Zhao Guang and then sending them back for testing.
Merely the next day, Aleya sent a message informing Zhao Guang of the experimental results.
“That was really fast, but good.
With these results, now we have alternatives.
I didn’t expect that pure herbal preparations suited them so well,” Zhao Guang noted.
That’s because herbal medicine is milder, and most critically, it does not produce drug resistance.
After consuming many blue pills, many Beastmen had begun to develop drug resistance.
Reportedly, the Beastmen are researching Spells to combat drug resistance.
The original Evil Exorcism Technique wasn’t very effective against drug resistance.
“We should also try planting medicinal herbs here, trying to enhance some of their medicinal properties,” Zhao Guang thought aloud.
Considering the massive size of creatures like the Bimon Giant Beast, how much Potion would be necessary?
Indeed, the effects of Potions must be enhanced.
“Um, Master, perhaps we could sell these things widely.
Humans need them too,” Xi Fei suggested quietly.
“You’re right.
Although it might seem like we’re competing with the Beastmen, their stocks of the octagonal soft worm Potion are limited,” Zhao Guang agreed.
That Special Potion, only available to a few, meant he could wholly produce mid and low-end products.
Maybe, through channels, some special items could be acquired.
