Grinding EXP From Fireball Skill
Chapter 422: I Will Not Only Threaten You, but Also Rob You
Victor looked at the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment in Li Wei’s hand.
The corner of his eye twitched uncontrollably.
He put on a brave face and said, "Ha, that thing in your hand is a fake. You think you can threaten me with that?"
Li Wei sneered. "You want to test me?"
The corner of Victor’s mouth twitched. Did he dare try?
He absolutely did not.
Li Wei was able to create something that looked exactly like a Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment.
’That means he’s definitely seen a real Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment before.’
’There’s a high probability that the one in his hand is real.’
The consequences of a Forbidden Curse detonating inside the Space Tower were more than Victor could bear.
At this close range, he might not even be able to get away.
Victor watched Li Wei for a moment before saying helplessly, "Don’t be rash. If the Forbidden Curse explodes, you won’t survive either."
Li Wei just smiled, saying nothing.
’He didn’t know if Victor would survive.’
’But he himself would definitely survive.’
Li Wei put away the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment and said, "Now we can sit down and have a proper talk."
Victor glanced at Li Wei. "What else do you want to talk about?"
Li Wei took out the Void Chain and the Beast Taming Ring. "Remove the restrictions on these two Magic Items."
The Void Chain and the Beast Taming Ring had a Magic Restriction from the Space Tower on them.
After leaving the Secret Realm, they could no longer be used.
Normally, the two items should have been retrieved when he was teleported back to the Space Tower.
But the way Li Wei returned to the Space Tower was not normal.
So the items were still in his possession.
However, the Magic Restriction left on the items had sealed them after leaving the Secret Realm’s range, making them unusable.
Victor frowned as he looked at the two items in Li Wei’s hands.
"What do you mean? You want to take the Space Tower’s Magic Items with you?"
Li Wei said, "If you’re not willing, then I’ll just have to test the power of this Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment."
"Besides, since I know so many of your secrets, the Space Tower probably won’t let me leave here alive anyway."
As he spoke, Li Wei took out the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment and prepared to activate it.
The Magic Fluctuation emanating from the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment startled Victor.
He hurriedly stopped Li Wei. "Wait, don’t be rash!"
Victor was drenched in sweat. ’Why are young people these days so impulsive? Does he have a death wish?’
Li Wei gestured with the Void Chain and Beast Taming Ring in his hand.
Victor quickly said, "I’ll help you remove the restrictions. You just calm down first."
Li Wei said, "You remove the restrictions first."
Sensing the Magic Fluctuation coming from the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment in Li Wei’s hand, Victor didn’t dare hesitate. He quickly began Casting to remove the seals on the Void Chain and Beast Taming Ring.
Li Wei felt the Void Chain and Beast Taming Ring return to normal.
He smiled, put away the items, and dispelled the fake Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment in his hand.
The Magic Fluctuation had just been a deliberate fabrication.
Victor was too anxious to think straight.
When Victor saw that the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment in Li Wei’s hand was a fake, his heart skipped a beat and his face went pale.
He suddenly felt breathless, as if his heart was about to stop.
A monstrous rage surged within him, and he wished he could just tear Li Wei apart for deceiving him.
But... the thought of the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment in Li Wei’s possession forced him to swallow his rage.
He sized Li Wei up, his mind racing.
’Could he catch Li Wei off guard, subdue him, and seize the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment?’
Having seen Li Wei’s performance in the competition, Victor knew this possibility was very small.
’Li Wei might not be as powerful as me.’
’But the boy has too many tricks up his sleeve.’
He couldn’t even be sure if the Li Wei standing before him was the real one.
Victor had never thought that he would one day be pushed to this extent by a mere Tier Four Mage.
Li Wei was overjoyed after obtaining permanent use of the Void Chain and Beast Taming Ring.
This was a complete and unexpected windfall.
He had originally planned to figure out a way to remove the seals after he got back.
But since Victor had delivered himself right to his doorstep...
...of course he had to take full advantage of the situation. It was only fair compensation for the trauma of being threatened and intimidated.
Li Wei’s eyes narrowed slightly as he thought of something else.
When Victor saw his expression, his heart dropped.
’What is this guy planning now?’
Li Wei said with a beaming smile, "Elder Victor, that Purple Crystal Source Potion formula you all mentioned... could you give me a copy?"
"After all, I’m a core member of the Hall of Truth. Perhaps I could even help you improve the Magic Potion’s formula."
Victor’s heart froze.
’Didn’t you fucking say you were just some nobody from the Hall of No Truth?’
’And that you weren’t skilled in this area?’
’How do you have the gall to say that now?’
’Your skin is thicker than a Deep Sea Giant Whale’s hide!’
Victor’s face darkened. "Impossible! No!"
Li Wei produced the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment again and sighed dramatically. "Alas, life is full of disappointments. It’s better to just die..."
Victor’s face grew even darker.
He cursed inwardly, then said with a grave expression, "Li Wei, don’t even think of using this method to threaten me."
"I will never give you the Purple Crystal Source Potion formula."
"The Space Tower will not allow such a thing to happen!"
Li Wei pouted and put away the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment.
"Fine, be stingy."
Victor was so furious that blood rushed to his head. He nearly blacked out.
’This guy is just too arrogant, too infuriating!’
"HUFF... PUFF..."
Victor took several deep breaths to compose himself.
He’d nearly been angered to death.
Hearing Li Wei ask for the Purple Crystal Source Potion formula, he knew that Li Wei must have obtained the Purple Crystal Source.
He stared at Li Wei, grinding his teeth in hatred.
’This guy is so damn lucky. He got all the good stuff.’
In his opinion, if Li Wei hadn’t accidentally survived until the end, he would have had no chance to get the Purple Crystal Source and the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment.
It was all just dumb luck.
Only Li Wei knew it was strength.
’And if someone insisted on calling it luck, well, then he’d have to admit that luck is a part of strength, too.’
After Victor calmed down, he looked at Li Wei and said, "The Purple Crystal Source is useless in your hands. Give it to me, and when the Purple Crystal Source Potion is made, I’ll give you a bottle."
Li Wei asked, "How many bottles of Magic Potion can one piece of Purple Crystal Source make?"
Victor said, "According to our projections, it can probably make four to five bottles of the Magic Potion."
Li Wei said, "I want three bottles."
Victor immediately refused, "Impossible!"
"Do you know how precious the Purple Crystal Source Potion is?"
"The cost alone is over ten thousand Gold Coins per bottle. One bottle of Purple Crystal Source Potion can raise a Tier Six Mage by a minor Level."
Li Wei’s expression turned to one of surprise.
’He hadn’t expected the Purple Crystal Source Potion to have such an astonishing effect.’
’And the cost was truly exorbitant.’
After much haggling and argument, Victor painfully agreed to give Li Wei two bottles of the Purple Crystal Source Potion.
They also agreed that what happened today would be forgotten.
The Space Tower would not try to reclaim the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment, Void Chain, Beast Taming Ring, or other items from Li Wei.
Li Wei, in turn, must keep everything that happened today a secret and not leak the truth about the Purple Crystal Source or the Magic Forbidden Curse Fragment.
