Sorcerer's Survival Manual

The population of Anping Town is small, and the houses were built in the early years. When planning the residents, the expected population was larger than the actual population, so many houses in the town were vacant.

Except for special buildings such as the town government and the hospital, all the houses in the town are three-storey small buildings with a square shape, and the internal layout is the same, but the house with people is inevitably bigger than the house without people. Looking clean, tidy and alive, a house that has not been lived in for many years, even if it looks the same as other houses, still has a sense of emptiness and desolation.

Aside from the accident of Ansair, Anping Town has had no new residents for nearly three years.

Those assigned to work like Kong Ru are not counted. Of course, the new residents refer to mutants. Ordinary people's household registrations are generally not allowed to move here.

There was a new resident coming to the town, and the news spread quickly. Everyone was discussing this new resident all day.

Mayor Sun didn't get much information. He only knew that the identity of the other party was unusual, but he didn't disclose the details.

"Has the house been chosen?"

"It is said that it is the one next to the entrance of the town, and there is an osmanthus tree at the door."

"The house has been empty for several years, right? Why don't we help clean it?"

A few enthusiastic people who were free in the town gathered together to discuss to help with the cleaning. Before other people came, they also gathered together to help clean so that the newcomers could move in.

Several people made an appointment, each went home to get the tools, and went there together.

I met other people on the road and asked them what they were going to do, and they went with them if they were free at the moment.

The key to the house was obtained from the government, and it was kept by a subordinate of Mayor Sun. I heard that they were going to clean up. After the other party gave the key, he said: "Just do a general cleaning. I heard the identity of the person who came this time. It's unusual, with a lot of bodyguards and medical staff around, I'm afraid people will look down on that house."

"Do you still have bodyguards? How many people are there? Can this building fit in?"

"We don't know until the notice comes out. Besides, how many people are brought by the family, as long as they are not family members, we don't care about the housing here. If they can't live, let them find another house. There are many vacant houses here."

"makes sense."

I thought they were just ordinary new residents, but they sounded unusual, but they were not as enthusiastic as before. However, everyone has already agreed to help clean, so what should be done is still to be done.

Take the key and go out, and you have new conversation material.

Everyone said that a big man was coming to the town, and I'm afraid it would be difficult to mess with. In the future, everyone should pay attention and set their own attitudes.

Although they are all ordinary people, they can't be underestimated and lose the face of Anping Town.

It was said that new residents were coming, but before the official notification was issued, a few people dressed in unusual clothes went to Anping Town first, approached Mayor Sun, and said they wanted to buy land and build a house.

These people are the subordinates of the new townsman who is said to be coming.

Their attitudes were very good. They were very polite to Mayor Sun, but their intention to buy the land was very firm.

But Mayor Sun's attitude is also very clear: "Our homestead is not for sale, and the surrounding farmland cannot be used to build houses. If you want land, I can grant you two hundred square meters. No more."

His attitude was very businesslike, and he was probably a little unhappy. The other party clearly looked down on their housing conditions.

Since you don't like it, why come.

Assistant He, who came to talk about this matter, looked at Mayor Sun with a serious face in surprise: "But when we came here, we saw someone building a house on your side. I'm afraid the area is more than [-] square meters?"

"It's a homestead that several families applied for together. If you can find someone who is willing to give you the homestead for free, we won't interfere." He emphasized the word "free".

This homestead cannot be bought or sold.

"And their house doesn't occupy any agricultural land. What you want is the land in the town. Can I tear down the public house and give you the land, or can I give you everyone's field?"

Assistant He didn't expect the other party to be so reticent. It was obviously their first contact, but the other party seemed to dislike them very much. His tone of voice was stinging, and he felt a little annoyed in his heart, but he couldn't show it on his face. , can only continue to smile and try to make Mayor Sun change his mind.

But Mayor Sun just refused to let go, and insisted on following the rules and regulations. Assistant He saw that things would not work out, so he got up and left in frustration, and went back to his boss for advice.

Mayor Sun also let out a sigh of relief. Ever since he figured out who these people might be for, he hated seeing them very much. Now that the people have not arrived and their household registrations have not been moved, they are thinking about buying land and building houses. Although the person's attitude is good, he doesn't intend to go through the formal process. Doesn't this make him break the law?

Such a person, what kind of face do you give.

On the other hand, Xia Wei was also a little surprised after hearing Assistant He's report.

Their Xia family's status in Yunxi Province is very high, even the governor would give some face, but he was a little surprised that the mayor of a small town did not appreciate it at all.

However, after hearing Assistant He's retelling, Xia Wei was not angry. To be honest, there was indeed a mistake on their side, and Xia Wei also casually ordered Assistant He to help him buy a house in Anping Town, and he and The villas here in Hukou Town are the same, but I didn’t expect that the two sides are different. Hukou Town is a big town, and the land here was bought by his old man through bidding, while in Anping Town, they don’t invite bids. The place is small, and it is really troublesome to get a piece of land.

Fortunately, this matter is not difficult to solve.

So a phone call came, and Mayor Sun received news that there was only one new resident moving in, but suddenly there were a dozen or so people, all of whom were mutants, and they wanted to move their residence.

And the procedures for these people were also quick, and within two days they all moved over, and soon after, like-minded people applied for homesteads.

And they all chose the location themselves, even the one next to Ansair's new house.

Mayor Sun and the others looked at it, and it was obvious that they were going to Ansair. Even the places were chosen together, so they could be neighbors.

But they did make the right choice. If Anping Town was to be expanded, the vicinity of the new house in Ansair was indeed the best choice.

But letting them stand next to each other like this made them feel uneasy no matter how they thought about it. For this matter, Mayor Sun even asked Ansair to explain the situation.

"We have no reason not to approve the places they chose."

Ansair frowned. He wanted to build the house so far away because he wanted a quiet place. If there was a neighbor next door, he would feel uncomfortable first.

"Can't you move some? Uncle Sun, you also know that I need to be quiet when doing experiments. The movement of them building the house is bound to be a lot. I'm afraid I won't be able to concentrate."

Ansair's house has been mostly built now, and the house can be collected only after the interior repair and some detail work are completed. Moreover, the current buildings are made of environmentally friendly materials, and there are no harmful substances such as formaldehyde. Move in right away without any harm.

And when he moved into the new house, the next door would become a construction site, and it would be noisy all day long. Even if he had a soundproof barrier, he would still feel uncomfortable.

When Mayor Sun heard him talking about the experiment, he couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Xiao'an, tell me, how is your experiment doing now?"

Mayor Sun has always known what Ansair is doing, but he doesn't know about it, and Ansier rarely talks about his experimental plan and progress, and what he sees like everyone else is the magic of stabilizers. The product, but it is not very clear about what kind of experiment he is doing in private.

Ansair thought about it, and then revealed something to him: "The recent progress is very satisfactory. I originally thought that if Brother Liang agreed, I would ask him to come and help me in a few days."

Mayor Sun cheered up: "What can I help? Is it dangerous?"

"It's not dangerous. Even if it fails, it won't do him any harm. At most, it's my side to do it all over again."

Although Ansair wanted to do human experiments, he naturally wouldn't joke about human lives.

Hearing that it was not dangerous, Mayor Sun was relieved.

"I don't understand the things about you professionals, but as long as it's safe, you have to talk to Liang Bang yourself."

"Then, those people's applications..."

Mayor Sun pondered: "It is impossible not to approve the land, but it can also be operated. I will handle it."

After returning home, Mayor Sun asked those applications to be rejected. The reason was that the location of the homestead they chose was connected to farmland, and there was no way to build a road to the town, nor could they build another road. Building a house in the location, the rest of the place is still public, that area is all forests, road construction is to occupy the forest land, there is no place for several people to occupy such a large area.

So Anping Town asked them to change the application area to the one near the entrance of the town, which is not far from the road, and there is also wasteland nearby. As long as a short road is built to connect to the road, it will be convenient to enter and exit.

Of course, it doesn't mean that they are not allowed to repair the gate on the iron fence like Ansair, but Ansair is closed to traffic, so there is no need to occupy fields to build roads, and they have to do so if they want to open the gate.

After listening to Assistant He's reply, Xia Wei also deeply felt that the mayor of Anping Town did not welcome them.

If the mayor of another place dares to do this, he is afraid that someone will teach him a lesson.

But Anping Town is different, Xia Wei agreed with Mayor Sun's modification with a sullen face.

"Just do as he said, and the construction team will also urge you. I want to see the house built within a month."

"Okay, young master."

Looking at the stabilizer that had just been drunk on the table, Xia Wei said again: "Let everyone clean up, let's move there first."

Assistant He said in surprise, "But young master, there is no hotel over there."

Xia Wei: "Didn't you say that the house will be assigned? Just live there, have someone clean it up, and choose a new batch of furniture. You should be able to move in in a few days, right?"

"That's true, but the houses over there are all old houses, and the conditions are very ordinary."

Xia Wei looked at him coldly: "Others can live here, but I can't?"

Assistant He shuddered, and quickly replied, "Of course! I'll arrange it right away."

Regardless of the new residents who will arrive in a few days, Ansair is still busy raising his Beast Core and Little Rainbow.

As long as the cub eats enough and sleeps well, it is basically the same every day.

It has been seven or eight days since Little Rainbow Dash was brought back. The news spread quickly in the town. Everyone around knew that Ansair had raised a kitten, but they had never seen any of them. Even Kong Ru was curious. I wanted to see it, but was also rejected by Ansair.

"It's still very weak. I don't know if it can be fed. I'll show you when it gets older."

Ansair has not dared to let everyone know about raising a mutant beast. People here don't have a good view of mutant beasts. He is worried that the cub will be asked to dispose of it if it is discovered.

Ansair didn't think he could convince them with empty words that mutant beasts didn't hurt people. In fact, they were indeed dangerous human-eating creatures.

Moreover, the characteristics of the Fire Clouded Leopard are very obvious, with a fiery red fur with black markings, as long as you see it, you won't think it is an ordinary animal.

So Ansair bought a batch of animal dyes online, and planned to dye it later, temporarily disguising it as an ordinary cat.

When it grows up later, let Liang Bang sign a contract with it, so there is no need to worry about this mutant beast hurting people.

Under the care of him and the elf, the originally thin and weak cub has opened amber-like eyes, and can run around in the corner specially opened by Ansair .

Now the elf's daily rest time is to show up and play with this little guy, and the two get along very well.

It can be predicted that when the cub is about to be sent away, there will be a "storm" baptism.

But this little guy also gave Ansair a surprise, which made him a little bit reluctant to send it away.

It stands to reason that the animal nucleus in the brain of a mutant beast's cub will automatically disappear a few days after its birth. According to Ansair's judgment, the mutant beast's birth stage should instinctively seek magic power. But they themselves have not yet grown to the extent that they can absorb external magic power, so in order to meet the needs of the body, the beast nucleus will automatically decompose into magic power and supply it to the body.

But Ansair, who checked Little Rainbow Dash every day, found that its beast core didn't disappear like other mutant beasts, but grew a little bigger.

Although it grew very slowly, it couldn't escape Ansair's mental scan, and it was indeed a little bigger than before.

After his repeated research, Ansair found the reason for this mutation—the nutrient he fed to the cub every day.

The nutrient itself is a potion prepared for young mages. It can warm and nourish their bodies and magic cores stably and for a long time. It itself contains a certain amount of magic power.

Little Rainbow Dash needs to drink a small bottle of nutritional supplements every day, and the nutrients and magic power contained in the nutritional supplements meet its physical needs. As long as there is no lack of magic power, its body naturally does not need the magic power provided by the self-decomposition of the beast core up.

The effect of the nutrient to nourish the magic core is also effective on the beast core. Under the action of the medicine, its magic core became more stable and began to absorb the magic power to grow.

Ansair felt that what he discovered should be the evolution process of mutant beasts. Maybe as time goes by, when the magical elements in this world become more concentrated, all mutant beasts will have their own unique abilities just like the magical beasts in Seran Continent. The animal nucleus, instead of disappearing shortly after birth.

And this discovery made Ansair even more curious about human newborns, wondering if they were in the same situation.

Pour the last extract into the test tube, shake the slender fingers to let the newly added liquid blend into it, and the originally mixed color liquid turns into a pure dark blue.

After consuming some of his own reserves, the "ink" made of mutated plants, ores containing magic elements, and the blood of monsters was completed.

This is the magic ink used to draw magic circles. The formula is improved from the alchemy notebook. According to the notes, the full version of the man-made magic core uses the same magic ink. The magic that is only drawn on the magic core The array and magic lines are missing, so the owner of the alchemy notebook can only make a one-time artificial magic core.

But this is different from the artificial magic core that Ansair is going to do. Whether it is the original full version of the artificial magic core or a one-off artificial magic core, they all use the animal core dug out after the death of an adult monster , those animal cores lost their activity and turned into hard objects like gems.

And Ansair's animal cores are derived from newly born cubs. They are special tissues composed of flesh and blood. They have not yet fully grown up. Under the cultivation of medicine, they have extremely high vitality and have not lost their vitality. The space for self-growth and the beast core dug out after the death of the monster are actually completely different things.

The difference in basic materials also makes the final product have an essential difference.

While being good at potions, Ansair is also very good at magic lines and magic circles. Although he is not talented enough to create a new magic circle out of thin air, he is still very good at repairing it based on the incomplete magic circle. confident.

And he has been doing this work for a long time. In the spare time of dispensing potions, he has been researching and restoring the magic circle.

It was not until the magic circle was almost restored that Ansair started to configure the magic ink.

The restored magic circle is an extremely powerful and huge combined magic circle, which is composed of a main circle and dozens of sub-formation, and there are hundreds of magic lines on it, each of which has a meaning and function Necessary, the lack of any one of them will also cause the magic circle to fail. Its level of sophistication is extremely rare. If it weren't for the fact that Ansair's all magic-related knowledge was taught by the three upper gods, and he had seen many gods only The legendary magic circle that he just knew had a higher vision than ordinary human magicians, and he couldn't complete it in such a short period of time.

However, the descendants of the master alchemist who was able to improve a new magic circle when the magic circle was incomplete should not be underestimated.

Fortunately, although he has improved, the incomplete original picture is also recorded, otherwise Ansair would have to spend more time restoring it.

Now that the magic ink has been prepared and the material—the animal core is available, he can now start the next step—carving the magic circle on the animal core.

This kind of engraving doesn't really use a tool to carve out a magic circle stroke by stroke on the animal core. It has no meaning other than destroying the animal core.

The so-called engraving here is to attach the magic monster to the spiritual power, and use the spiritual power as a tool to draw the magic circle on the beast core.

Moreover, the drawing of the magic array must be formed in one stroke. Although this combined magic array can be drawn slowly one by one, if something goes wrong in the middle, the entire formation will be scrapped.

Therefore, Ansair must ensure that every magic circle and magic pattern can't make mistakes. In addition, the magic circle is too large, which consumes a lot of mental energy. If you are distracted a little during the drawing process, the entire magic circle will be destroyed.

This has extremely high requirements on the control of mental power.

Ansair had never done such a delicate and labor-intensive drawing work before. Even though he was very careful, he scrapped a lot of beast cores in the early stage, and slowly found some feeling.

After spending more than ten days, the first man-made magic core was finally made.

This man-made magic core is still placed in a petri dish and soaked in medicine. On its meatball-like surface, there are densely packed with small blue lines. Those lines cannot be seen with the naked eye. Even with a magnifying glass, you can barely see the criss-cross lines. Only with a microscope can you see the complete pattern on it.

Such small and complex patterns, they seem to have grown on them, such as the texture on the skin, the blood vessels in the muscles are as natural as it is, and it is impossible to imagine that they were created by humans.

Even Ansair, who made such an artificial magic core, was so excited that he couldn't believe that he really succeeded.

But while being excited, he also realized again that if man-made magic cores were to be used to solve the mutant problem, not to mention other things, just how to popularize it would be a huge problem.

He can assure you that in this world, there are probably very few people who can draw magic circles with spiritual power like himself, and he is the only one who can draw magic circles like the man-made magic core.

However, this question needs to be considered on the premise that the man-made magic core can indeed improve the mutant's abilities. Before conducting formal human experiments, although Ansair is very confident, he cannot be 100% sure. Be sure that your own research is really effective for mutants.

Moreover, the man-made magic core in his hand has grown to its own limit, and he can't be sure whether the animal core that has been made into a man-made magic core will continue to split. Now this man-made magic core has been transferred to It is stored in a fresh-keeping agent to prevent it from continuing to grow.

So it is imminent to find someone to conduct experiments.

But before that, there was another thing that Ansair needed to worry about.

On the day when the man-made magic core was successfully completed, Bao Jinxu of Dongxu's construction team informed him that his house took one month and eighteen days to finally build.
