Chapter 559: Advancing to the Second-Circle! (5)

“Professional assassin…” Levi muttered, killing intent filling his heart.

Obviously, in order to prevent his identity from being exposed, this assassin did not bring anything other than the necessary casting materials before he made his move.

“Someone hired an assassin to kill harmless me? I’m just a pharmacist.” Levi was puzzled.

If they were Area 9’s enemies and Whale Song Island came to harm him, there was no need for them to hire assassins. Whale Song Island was already a dark wizard. They would have given up a long time ago.

Therefore, Levi felt that his enemy should still be the righteous wizards in Riptide City.

“Who could it be? Did I offend anyone?” Levi thought for a long time but could not figure it out.

“I work hard every day to make potions and earn money legally. Why are there still inexplicable people who want to harm me?”

“Could it be that I’ve cut off someone’s source of income? No, there’s no competition between me and the other pharmacists. Merit points are distributed by the military.”

In Riptide City, he was an insignificant figure. He only wanted to live a steady life.

Levi took a deep breath and calmed down. He dug out the eye demon’s eyeball and burned the corpse to ashes with the Big Fireball Technique.

Other than the eyeball, nothing else on the eye demon could be used. It also had demonic aura radiation, so Levi naturally wouldn’t keep it.

A notification suddenly came from the military merit bracelet.

After Levi opened it, he realized that he had suddenly gained 500 merit points.

“Killing an eye demon actually gives me 500 merit points, ten times more than a level 1 demon. Not bad.”

Levi returned to the stronghold.

He looked at the various people in these strongholds and felt that everyone in the world wanted to harm him.

“That assassin seems to be from the Shadow Faction. This is a small branch of the Dark Energy Faction. In Riptide City, there shouldnt be many people who cultivate the spells of the Shadow Faction. To be able to hire a second-circle assassin, his status must not be low. I want to see who’s messing with me.”

“Sigh, don’t bully honest people.”

Riptide City.

Levi, who had been out for a few days, returned to the Tower of Pharmacists. Huffman looked at Levi’s safe return and could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

In the following days, Levi began to make all kinds of preparations for refining the Eye Devil’s Gaze. He had already prepared the other materials.

He continued to refine the Iceheart Potion. A month later, Levi’s pharmaceutical skills reached Level 9.

This meant that Levi had successfully become a Second-Circle Pharmacist.

He came to Huffman’s residence and told him about his advancement to the second-circle. He also successfully passed the Second-Circle Pharmacist assessment.

After advancing to the second -circle, Huffman no longer made Levi refine the Iceheart Potion.

Instead, he let Levi refine the second-circle red-blue mana potion for the frontlines to use.

Due to the scarcity of Second -Circle Pharmacists, the supply of second-circle red and mana potions had always been in short supply.

Levi also took this opportunity to quickly cultivate the Proficiency of the potion.

His Merit Points were also increasing rapidly.

When Grimm and Tommen heard that Levi had become a Second-Circle Pharmacist, they also congratulated him.

The stronger Levi was, the easier it would be for them to survive in the Tower of Pharmacists.

Levi temporarily put the matter of his assassination to the back of his mind and did not tell Huffman about it.

The most important thing for him now was to refine the Eye Devil’s Gaze and become a Second-Circle Wizard.

After advancing to the second-circle, he was not considered a big shot in Riptide City, but he was not at the bottom.

At that time, it would be more convenient for him to investigate.

Time passed quickly.

In the Tower of Pharmacists, Levi’s cultivation went smoothly.

During his cultivation, Levi would consciously interact with the people from the Tower of Pharmacists. He wanted to see if he could rely on Spider Sensing to find people who were hostile to him.

Ultimately, Levi found nothing.

Among the pharmacists who worked like him, no one was hostile to him.

He narrowed his targets to the five supervisors.

However, other than Huffman, who was directly in charge of him, Levi had no contact with the other four supervisors.

For a moment, Levi could not verify his guess.

He had a feeling that the mastermind might be one or more of the other four directors, but he had no evidence.

Holy Brilliance Calendar Year 1042, Month of Flowing Fire.

Levi’s merit points broke through the 10,000 mark. He quickly cultivated his Pharmacy Proficiency and prepared to refine the Eye Devil’s Gaze.

Huffman saw his hard work and effort, which made Huffman pay more and more attention to Levi.

An employee who wanted to work overtime was a good employee!

At the same time, Huffman’s performance was also steadily improving. Levi’s additional achievements allowed Huffman to buy an expensive house in the Upper Riptide even faster.

Not long after, Huffman moved to the Upper Riptide. He only came to check on the missions of the department’s wizards every day.

In the end, after Levi felt that he had more or less mastered the second-circle potion, he began to refine the Eye Devil’s Gaze alone.

At his current level, he was much better than Ms. Marlene back then. He could refine it himself.

Most importantly, the Eye Devil’s Gaze potion was too precious. Even Grimm, who had a good relationship with him, Levi did not dare to cooperate with him.

Wealth moved one’s heart.

After experiencing this inexplicable assassination, Levi was even more guarded against outsiders.

In comparison, Leviathan and the other cuties were more loyal and simpler.

Humans were too complicated…

Seven days later.

Five eye demon eyeballs were consumed by Levi.

Because Levi refined it alone, it was difficult to control the supplementary potion.

Therefore, the success rate was not high. In the end, he only succeeded twice, but it was enough for him to break through.

In the container, the potion that looked like two eyeballs emitted a strange light.

“Take one for yourself and sell the other one when you have the chance.”

A portion of Eye Devil’s Gaze potion. Levi felt that in Riptide City, the minimum value was 30,000 Aether Stones. It was not much inferior to the value of a third-circle Wizard Tool. After all, this was a precious breakthrough potion that was a necessity. As for the Wizard Tool, it was dispensable. It was only the icing on the cake.

Taking a deep breath, Levi took the Eye Devil’s Gaze potion and immediately began to meditate.

This time, he wanted to break through to the second-circle in one go.

With his current fire element affinity talent and the Eye Devil’s Gaze potion, Levi basically had a 100% chance of breaking through to the second-circle. The probability of failure was extremely low! If this failed, then he, Levi, would be a pig!

A day later.

Levi meditated.

In the boundless void, an endless stream of spiritual force began to enter Levi’s mind.

In his sea of consciousness, his spiritual force became more and more resplendent, and there seemed to be some red light flickering and spreading. Judging from the quantity, the invisible spiritual force was much stronger than before.

In terms of quality, this spiritual force was more condensed than in the first-circle.

It was originally an illusory spiritual force, but it gave Levi a feeling that if he took another step forward, he would be able to form a physical spiritual force.

Levi had heard that if one wanted to advance to the third-circle, apart from mastering third-circle spells, there was also a special requirement.

That was the illusory spiritual force that could transform into gas form in one’s mind.

This was the so-called spiritual force vaporization.

After the fourth circle, it would be the spiritual force liquefaction.

Fifth-circle, spiritual force solidification, forming the so-called spiritual force crystal.

After advancing to the advanced level, the spiritual force crystal would transform into a primordial soul that had fused with the soul!

The path of a wizard was to constantly temper one’s spiritual force.

When the spiritual power in the void stopped flowing in, the spiritual power in Levi’s mind also stopped growing.

This was the second-circle realm. He looked at his body. The King Kong Rock Body emitted a faint golden luster, and runes flickered.

After advancing to the second-circle, it was much easier to use this second-ring spell.

As for those First-Ring Spells, they were even more controllable when used. Be it the casting rhythm or casting speed, they far exceeded the First-Ring Spell.

Levi touched the Klein Crystal.

“Spiritual force: 51”

“Spell power: 1001”

“I’m at the second-circle. In Riptide City, I’m finally out of the bottom ranks..’
