My Summons Can Learn Skills - Chapter 35
“You don’t happen to fancy this bloodline, do you?”
Upon seeing Chen Gou staring at the T-Virus bloodline potion on the catalog, Tony couldn’t help but speak.
“The T-Virus bloodline has a very severe flaw. There is a small chance that you will become a demon despite using a support potion. To put it bluntly, this kind of trash bloodline isn’t worthy of you.
“It’ll be embarrassing if people find out that my teammate actually activated such a trash bloodline.”
Chen Gou replied with a bitter smile, “I know, but top-notch bloodline potions are too expensive. How many missions do I have to complete to gather enough Merit Points?”
“Actually, you don’t have to get ready-made ones Didn’t we just collect two vials of demon blood? I’ll introduce you to a potion master who can make a bloodline potion. It’ll be at least 50% cheaper than buying it directly, even considering the fee for the labor and supporting materials.”
In fact, this was how most Awakeners obtained bloodline potions. The blood they collected by killing demons would be handed to a potion master for refinement.
Chen Gou had naturally considered this, but
“That nightmare demon is good at magic skills, but the grade of his bloodline isn’t high. Most of my magic skills are of the light attribute and thus clash with the bloodline of demons.”
Tony understood what Chen Gou meant. He found the grade of Freddy’s bloodline low, so he wanted something better than that.
After all, the bloodline attributes had an extremely profound effect on the evolution of an Awakener after Level 10 and couldn’t be replaced once chosen.
“Don’t you also have a progenitor bloodworm? You can refine it into a bloodline potion, which definitely won’t be low-grade.”
Tony was seriously giving advice to his teammate, but Chen Gou didn’t express his opinion and just smiled indifferently.
“There’s no rush. You should wait a little longer. Anyway, there’s still some time before you reach Level 10.”
He had his own things to consider.
What Tony had said was naturally a good solution.
However, if the progenitor bloodworm was given to a potion master to be refined into a bloodline potion, the dark bloodline of the Master would most likely be extracted.
Chen Gou wanted the angel bloodline hidden deep within its genes!
That would require more profound means and mediums.
Therefore, Chen Gou insisted on his previous plan to fuse the genes of the Progenitor Virus and the progenitor bloodworm to give rise to a stronger bloodline virus than the T-Virus.
However, not many potion masters in the Covenant studied viruses.
Even if they did, they didn’t have the Progenitor Virus or the corresponding high-tech equipment.
“He that hides will find things The best plan is definitely going to the world of Resident Evil and finding the Umbrella Corporation’s virus lab”
Chen Gou closed the bloodline catalog and told the woman in charge of handing out the missions over the counter, “Help me pick all the missions related to the Abyssal World of Resident Evil.”
Abyssal Knights usually carried out two kinds of missions.
The first kind was like the one in the White Stone Village, a mandatory mission assigned by the Covenant that was usually very urgent.
The other kind was just like this one. He would pick a mission from the mission library.
“Okay, please hold on.”
The woman was wearing a long white robe and was like a nun of the Covenant. She wasn’t very powerful, but she didn’t need to fight outside the city.
The countertop was filled with pieces of light crystals, and a dozen pieces of information regarding the missions soon floated over it.
“You want to go to this abyss?”
Tony looked surprised. Then, his expression changed slightly and he said, “I have to go to the Holy City for the next two months for a very important reason.”
Chen Gou replied helplessly, “I have to go to the abyss of Resident Evil to find a very important artifact. If it doesn’t work out we can split into two teams for the time being.”
Tony was speechless.
There were only three members in the Long Song Team, and now they were splitting up into different teams!
“It would be better to go back and persuade the captain first so that he can pull himself together and go with you. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous.”
Tony naturally wouldn’t feel at ease if Chen Gou were to go alone. There weren’t any other teammates like him, who wouldn’t drop the ball at a crucial moment, and it would be a pity if he died
“Let’s give it a try.”
Chen Gou didn’t expect too much from Xin Qi.
Time was the best medicine, and Xin Qi clearly hadn’t had enough time to heal his wounds.
Ten minutes later, Chen Gou chose two missions from the mission library: “Collect blood from five mutated zombies above Level 10” and “Kill the leader of the Blood Umbrella Organization, Adolf Ruhr”.
Tony came out of the church and returned to the Arslan Family, while Chen Gou bought two bottles of good wine from a nearby wine shop before he pulled his warhorse toward the Long Song Team’s garrison.
Two bottles of wine cost 20 Crystal Coins, which was the equivalent of 20 Awakening Points.
This was already considered good wine for a person who didn’t drink like him
“You’re back, sir!”
Upon seeing Chen Gou return with a face full of joy, Ayun looked behind him and asked in surprise, “Where is Sir Tony? Didn’t he”
“He went home. Stop overthinking.”
Chen Gou gave her the reins and said as he walked in, “How’s Captain?”
“He’s still the same. Drunk all day”
Chen Gou walked to the backyard and saw that Xin Qi was actually leaning against the threshold sloppily, reeking of alcohol.
“Captain, we have completed the mission in White Stone Village and killed a Level-20 demon I plan to go to the abyss of Resident Evil next. Are you interested in going with me?”
“No! Get lost!”
Chen Gou threw down the two bottles of good wine and shook his head before he took his leave.
Fortunately, he had only spent 20 Crystal Coins
While it was not yet dark, Chen Gou went to the magical artifact marketplace in Panshi City.
The trip to the abyss of Resident Evil might be even more dangerous than the trip to the abyss of The Strain, so he had to turn the unusable resources he had into instant combat power.
The marketplace was located on the main road of the central district, where magical artifacts could be bought or sold at the shops on the side.
There were also stalls set up directly by the roadside. This street was where more than half of the magical artifact trades in Panshi City took place.
There was a constant flow of people. Almost everyone there was an Awakener, and the place was bustling with noise just like a normal market.
Chen Gou looked at the roadside stalls but didn’t approach any. Because of the background behind those stores, the good stuff had already been sold internally. Even if they still had some left, they would be very expensive.
It would be more worthwhile to make a deal with the Awakeners at the stalls.
After an unknown amount of time, the sky darkened gradually.
Chen Gou had finished strolling down more than half of the street but hadn’t seen anything worth getting for the time being.
He either didn’t like something or couldn’t use it given his current level and primary attributes.
“Eh, why are they here?”
As he reached the other end of the street, Chen Gou was surprised to see Angeline and another female member of the Wildfire Team, Kelly, who had also set up a stall.
Chen Gou approached them and saw that they were mainly selling Freddy’s ashes.
Such demon ashes did not contain any magic, but under some special circumstances, they could play a specific role. For example, one could sprinkle them around one’s tent at night to scare the nearby ferocious beasts and demons.
They had a certain value, but it was not much.
Chen Gou and Tony didn’t value these ashes, so they hadn’t bothered dealing with them. In the end, the Wildfire Team had collected most of them, as this was considered a form of income for them.
“Sir Chen Gou!” Angeline and Kelly were startled to see him appear before them.
Chen Gou smiled slightly and said with a nod, “Do you mind if I borrow your stall?”
“We wouldn’t dare say no. What do you want to sell, sir?”
Kelly, who was livelier, quickly swept all the demonic ashes aside to make room for Chen Gou.
“Don’t worry, I won’t use it for anything else. I’ll pay you rent when I make a sale.”
Chen Gou joked as he placed four items on the stall, including a vial of bloodworm essence extract, a vial of Freddy’s demonic blood, the gold-grade Fear and Nightmare of Hell Skill Crystal, and two bronze-grade Carrion Poison Skill Crystals.
Chen Gou had obtained the two Carrion Poison crystals from the last battle in the church in the abyss of The Strain after killing a dozen Strigoi and had divided it with Tony evenly as a share of their spoils.
The marketplace contained too many assorted items, and people might not be willing to trade good stuff.
Therefore, instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, it was better to show what he had and wait.
