Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 327 - 172: Hard Goods, Acquiring a Large Number of Blueprint Skill Books!_2

“These days, let’s see if we can find a town or village and recruit an Alchemist.”

Cao Xing looked full of anticipation.

Then, he continued to open private messages, checking them one by one.

Among them, he found many things that piqued his interest.

For example, Demon Pattern Stone and Constant Gold Ingot, as well as some construction blueprints, and so on.

Cao Xing also started haggling, then bought them at a reasonable price.

[Trade successful: You gained [Basic Training Ground Construction Blueprint], you lost [Purified Forest Wild Boar Meat (Purple)]*2]

[Trade successful: You gained [Intermediate Cowshed Construction Diagram], you lost [Purified Forest Wild Boar Meat (Purple)]*2]

[Trade successful: You gained [First-tier Wild Boar Warrior Recruitment Scroll*1], you lost [Purified Forest Wild Boar Meat (Purple)]*2.]

[Trade successful: You gained [Constant Gold Ingot*2], you lost [Purified Boss Wild Boar Meat (Purple)]*1]

[Trade successful…]

This time, Cao Xing used 324 pieces of Beast Meat to exchange for a ton of supplies.

Most of the Beast Meat was used to exchange for recruitment scrolls and materials like Constant Gold Ingots and Demon Pattern Stones.

He glanced at the number of recruitment scrolls he obtained this time.

[First-tier Wild Boar Warrior Recruitment Scroll*71]

[First-tier Imperial Archer Recruitment Scroll*5]

[First-tier Imperial Soldier Recruitment Scroll*5]

“Great, including the previous batch of trades, plus the recruitment scrolls I have on hand, I have more than enough to assemble a hundred Wild Boar Warrior army!”

Satisfaction appeared in Cao Xing’s eyes.

Although these scrolls consumed a large amount of his Purple Beast Meat, it was clearly a lucrative deal!

Then there were the materials Constant Gold Ingots and Demon Pattern Stones.

This time, he accumulated.

[Constant Gold Ingot*64]

[Demon Pattern Stone*31]

“Building the King Altar requires 100 Constant Gold Ingots and 50 Demon Pattern Stones, I’m still a bit short.”

Cao Xing felt somewhat regretful.

However, this was normal.

After all, Constant Gold Ingots and Demon Pattern Stones were extremely advanced materials.

Receiving so many in Area 174 was already pretty good.

Besides these, Cao Xing also traded for ten Skill Books and six blueprints!

Then, he began to check them one by one.

First, there were the three Skill Books for the Frost Mage.

They were: [Ice Soul Spinning Spear], [Ice Breaking Flying Blade], [Basic Frost Ice Control]

He glanced at the descriptions of the three Skill Books.

[Ice Soul Spinning Spear: Frost Mage exclusive Skill Book (Blue)]

[Skill Effect: Throw a long spear condensed from ice forward, making it spin like a windmill at high speed, dealing multiple attack power*112% damage to all enemies along the way, skill cooling time: 60 seconds]

…

[Ice Breaking Flying Blade: Frost Mage exclusive Skill Book (Purple)]

[Skill Effect: Quickly form 1~3 large ice balls with sharp ice crystals, explode upon hitting enemies causing 273% damage, then scatter a wealth of shards, dealing 87% piercing damage to surrounding enemies, skill cooling time: 90 seconds]

…

[Basic Frost Ice Control: Frost Mage exclusive Skill Book (Blue)]

[Skill Effect: Deepen the understanding of Frost Ice Power, increase all Ice-based attacks’ damage by 10%, casting speed increased by 10%, and allow trying different skill combinations in practice.]

(Little tip: By continuously compressing the Ice Ball Skill, you can increase the explosion damage.)

…

“Amazing!”

These three Skill Books were essential skills for the Frost Mage for Cao Xing.

They cost him 20 pieces of Beast Meat.

But it was worth it! Totally worth it!

Especially [Basic Frost Ice Control], even though it’s just a blue Skill Book, it was a crucial skill.

By learning this, one could initially understand the application of these Frost Ice magics and create different attack styles.

For example, previously, learning skills from Skill Books and casting them was like copying answers.

But now, after learning [Basic Frost Ice Control], one would understand how these answers were derived, what the formulas were.

Thus learning more advanced application methods.

Cao Xing clapped his hands and learned these three Skill Books without hesitation.

In an instant, he felt a flood of memories filled his mind.

Within these memories were various combinations and chanting spells of the Frost Ice Elements.

It wasn’t until nearly one or two minutes later that Cao Xing absorbed these memories.

He opened his eyes, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and exclaimed, “Wow… learning a skill has such a huge reaction?”

“It feels like my brain is almost full…”

Cao Xing clapped his hands and continued to check.

Then there were the three Skill Books for the Aurora Knight, which also cost Cao Xing nearly twenty pieces of Beast Meat!

They were [Holy Shield Assault], [Basic Swordsmanship Control], [Defense Stance].

As usual, he checked the attributes of the three Skill Books.

[Holy Shield Assault (Purple): Aurora Knight exclusive Skill Book]

[Skill Effect: Gather the Power of Aurora on the Shield, rapidly rush forward 5~30 meters, knock back the enemies on the path, and deal attack power*89% damage, cooling time 30 seconds]

…

[Basic Swordsmanship Control (Blue): Warrior, Aurora Knight, and other melee Skill Books]

[Skill Effect: Deepen the understanding of swordsmanship, when using sword weapons, attack power increased by 10%, attack speed increased by 10%, and allows trying different combinations in combat.]

(Little tip, the moment the Polar Warrior’s Thrust skill ends, connect with Broken MuscleSkill, unexpected results may occur~)

…

[Defense Stance (Blue): Aurora Knight tactical Skill Book]

[Skill Effect: Switch to a complete defense stance, unable to attack, the chance of being knocked back reduces by 50%, defensive power increases by 20%, no cooling time.]
