Wizard: Scamming a Demon God

Chapter 352: Chapter 258: Top Seller Isaac

After the ritual, Isaac was surprised but didn’t dwell on it. He wasn’t sure if the other party had profited, but Isaac himself certainly had, and that was all that mattered.

After the ritual, Isaac removed the Magic Book, which was wreathed in an eerie Magic Power, from the center of the formation. He then stepped aside to briefly take stock of his gains, comparing them to his prior calculations to adjust his objectives for future trades.

As for the next ritual, Liu Li was, of course, tasked with preparing it.

While Liu Li prepared the new ritual, Isaac finished a rough tally of his gains. Aside from the Magic Book, what he had reaped from the Mysterious Void was more or less what he had anticipated.

First was the increased intensity of his Dimensional Magic Power. During this ritual, Isaac hadn’t focused on harvesting the Deep Sea Evil God’s Authority. Although Authority isn’t as unique as true dominion—many Outer Gods often command the same types—

Theoretically, to enhance the erosive capabilities of his Dimensional Magic Power, the best method would have been to continue harvesting and integrating the [Corrosion] and [Erosion] Authorities.

However, while that method could rapidly enhance the erosive power of his Dimensional Magic Power, was Magic Power the only strength of his Dimension World?

As a world—even one not as real and complete as the Material Realm—it needed balanced, simultaneous development. To simply and indiscriminately cram various abilities into the Dimension World like some chaotic stew would be a reckless waste.

That was why Isaac had harvested [Concepts] this time!

[Concepts] are an attribute of utmost importance on the Extraordinary paths of the Mysterious Side. For those on paths like Legendary Mage, Demon God, Evil God, or Outer Sect Master, [Concepts] are an unavoidable hurdle in the later stages of their progression.

However, the Concepts Isaac harvested this time were primarily for his Dimension World; he himself had little use for them at his current stage.

After integrating the harvested Concepts of [Corruption] and [Erosion] into the Dimension World, Isaac closed his eyes to perceive the changes. A moment later, a satisfied smile spread across his face. Everything had gone exactly as he had calculated.

With these Concepts integrated, the power within the Dimension World grew more balanced. And, just as he had predicted, integrating [Concepts]—even ones with a specific affinity—was like infusing the Dimensional Origin itself, strengthening the Dimension World in every aspect!

This method did cause the power to be distributed, meaning each aspect was only strengthened by a small amount. But every little bit adds up. After a few more trades, the cumulative gains would be substantial.

Having reviewed the gains for his Dimension World, Isaac next opened the Magic Book that radiated an ominous Magic Power—Creation Ceremony of the Son of the Deep Sea!

The Son of the Deep Sea: a type of High-level Demon found in the Deep Sea. They are not native Demons, but minions specially created by a Deep Sea Evil God. Their forms are varied, depending on the Authority Domain of their creator Evil God.

This type of Demon, with its somewhat limited operational sphere, wasn’t actually part of Isaac’s plans. Nevertheless, he opened the Magic Book and gave it a cursory glance.

While the subject matter didn’t perfectly align with his needs, the Knowledge contained within was still worth a brief study.

For one, it was a byproduct of the ritual. If it proved useful, great. If not, it wasn’t a major issue.

For another, his goal in obtaining it was to use it in conjunction with the two Authorities his Dimension World now possessed to create his own High-Dimensional Apostles. Therefore, regardless of its practical applications, it could only ever serve as a reference for him.

After a quick skim, Isaac closed the book and sighed in resignation. He had to admit it: this Deep Sea Evil God, who had managed to get one over on him, was certainly something else.

This Magic Book...

It wasn’t entirely without value.

The Knowledge within had some minor educational value, but truly, only a little...

There were only two ways to create a Son of the Deep Sea. The first was to use this Original Scripture Magic Book, which allowed one to bypass all rituals. As long as the corresponding flesh-and-blood materials were gathered, one could draw upon the Evil God’s power to complete the creation ceremony.

But this method was extremely risky. It was almost certain that an Original Scripture Magic Book like this contained a hidden backdoor planted by the Outer God. For this reason, no matter how powerful an Original Scripture might be, Mad Witches would always shelve them, at most borrowing from the Knowledge within.

The second method was to perform the ritual detailed inside, summoning the power of the Deep Sea Evil God to create a Son of the Deep Sea...

Either way, it required the power of the Deep Sea Evil God. A massive trap...

Shaking his head, Isaac set the Magic Book aside. There was no rush. He would have to take another look later to determine if it was truly useful.

Soon, while Isaac was still inspecting his gains, Liu Li finished setting up the formation. The next ritual could now begin...

He walked forward and, just like before, used his Golden Finger to correct Liu Li’s oversights. Then he activated the ritual, called down the power of an Outer God, used the same trade request as a pretext, and finally, began harvesting!

The whole process was perfectly smooth and seamless!

In the castle below the Mage Tower, Caesar had put down his cup of black tea, his expression grim as he stared at the tower’s peak. To be honest, he had a rough idea of what Isaac was preparing to do.

However!!!

He never expected the kid to be this frequent!

Not even the most unhinged Mad Witches of the old era would have attempted something this insane!
