There were four items on the list.
The first and second were about the "unknown smooth arm" and the "growth ray".
Let's skip them for now.
The third one was about the "spiral fruit".
It was a kind of fruit whose name was shown on the list. It looked like an apple with a pointed bottom, but its skin was covered with spiral patterns.
Angor had never seen this kind of fruit before, but he had heard of the name "sharp fruit" before.
Sharp fruit was a common name, but it had a great background. If it was the source of the fruit, it might have something to do with a god.
The sharp fruit came from the Drauna Plane, where a very rare humanoid race called the Sharp People lived. The top of their skulls was shaped like a cone, hence their name.
The Sharp People's civilization was still in the primitive tribal stage. Each tribe had its own god, and most of them were beast-shaped deities, which were called "Beast Gods" or "Outer Gods" by wizards.
The so-called "sharp fruit" was the fruit of the Sharp People's holy tree.
It was said that the holy tree was a gift from the gods, which was why different Sharp People tribes had different holy trees.
Of course, the "sharp fruit" of different holy trees would be different.
The only thing that was the same was that eating it would grant one incredible power.
So, if the "spiral fruit" on the list really came from the Drauna Plane, it should have some special effects as well.
But even if it did, he wouldn't eat it for real. After all, the holy tree came from an Outer God. Who knew if the fruit was hidden by an Outer God?
Angor wouldn't eat it, but he was still curious about the sharp fruit.
"Can I see the sharp fruit first?" Angor looked at the man in the black robe.
He only read about the sharp fruit in books, but he never saw it with his own eyes. If the man in the black robe agreed, it would be a great opportunity for him to take a look.
The black-robed man said, "If you want to see it, that's not a problem. But are you only interested in the sharp fruit? Are you not interested in the clues about Mystery items? "
The man in the black robe looked at Angor. His face was covered by the shadow, but Angor could still feel the man's gaze.
"Just because there are clues doesn't mean I can find it. What's more, some of the clues are common. "
Moreover, Mystery Items are not common alchemy tools. Any carelessness could lead to unknown dangers. " "I don't think it's worth risking your life to find a Mystery item." Angor spoke in a meaningful tone.
The black-robed man remained silent for a moment. "I guess I overestimated myself."
The black-robed man stepped forward and gently raised his hand to wipe the list of strange objects. The first two rows of items on the list slowly disappeared.
After the two rows of words disappeared, new characters slowly appeared on the paper.
"The aura of the Sea Cave."
"Is this a clue to the Mystery item too?" Angor muttered the new entry and looked at the black-robed man in confusion.
The black-robed man shook his head. "No, this is not a clue. It is a secret treasure, a secret treasure that I possess."
Secret treasure.
A day ago, he thought the word "treasure" was just a generic description. But now, he realized that the word "treasure" was actually a Semi-Mystery item.
The black-robed man erased the two useless clues from before and replaced them with a "secret treasure" that he owned.
"A secret treasure? You want to sell that too? " Angor did not know what kind of treasure the "aura of the Sea Cave" was, but it did not stop him from being curious.
He could make "secret treasures" himself, but he knew that the ones he made were strengthened by the mad hat, which limited their power. There was basically no chance for them to go any further. However, natural treasures might be able to go further. For example, "Xiao Ke's Haunted House". Angor had a feeling that Xiao Ke's Haunted House was hiding some secrets. Once he unraveled those secrets, he might be able to go further. It was even possible for it to become a true Mystery item.
Even if Angor could make secret treasures, he was still interested in other treasures.
The black-robed man shook his head. "No. I can rent it, but I'm not selling it."
A secret treasure that could be rented had to be a support-type one.
Just like Xiao Ke's Haunted House, its ability to change time was a kind of supplementary effect.
"What's its effect?" Angor asked.
The black-robed man did not answer. Instead, he gestured for Angor to check the list.
Angor looked down and saw a new line of words appearing behind "Aura of the Sea Cave", which explained the effect of the treasure in detail.
Angor was a little disappointed after reading the description.
The treasure was good, but it did not suit him.
The effect of the "Ocean Cave's Aura" was that when one's body contained many different bloodlines, the Ocean Cave's Aura could increase the chances of the bloodlines reaching a relative balance.
The more bloodlines one had, the more special they were, and the lower the chance of achieving balance.
Generally speaking, the success rate of balancing two ordinary bloodlines was close to 100%. However, if two special bloodlines were involved, the success rate would only be about 60% to 70%.
If there were more than three bloodlines, the chances of achieving balance would be lower and lower.
The effect of the treasure did not seem like much, but it was actually quite valuable. If it was exposed, wizards might even be willing to trade real Mystery items for it.
This treasure could be considered a divine artifact of the "Alteration" branch.
There were three main branches of the Bloodline branch: Bloodline, Pureblood, and Alteration. The Alteration branch abandoned the pursuit of purity of bloodlines and focused on supernatural organs instead. They focused on allowing multiple bloodlines to exist in one's body at the same time.
Once multiple bloodlines reached a balance in a wizard's body, the Altered wizard would possess multiple supernatural abilities.
This allowed the modification branch to have a greater variety of abilities than bloodline Adepts and pure-blood Adepts.
Of course, there were also disadvantages.
The biggest disadvantage of the Alteration branch was that multiple bloodlines could easily cause conflicts in the body, which could lead to rejection.
Once rejection occurred, the wearer would lose a bloodline at best, or suffer irreparable damage at worst.
Therefore, the most important thing for the Transformation Lineage was to find a way to achieve a balance after the arrangement of various bloodlines.
So far, they had only found about a thousand ways to combine bloodlines.
If the Alteration branch could get their hands on "Aura of the Sea Cave", the number of combinations would increase by a lot. It would not achieve a qualitative change, but it would definitely help the Alteration branch to develop further.
In other words, in the hands of a Bloodline Alteration wizard, this treasure would be as valuable as a real Mystery Item.
Unfortunately, the treasure was useless to Angor.
The only part of his body that could be modified was his skin.
Apart from that, there were no other organs that could be modified.
Besides, Angor did not plan to modify more organs. In fact, when he had enough time and learned a real Shapeshifting spell, he might even change the part of his body that was a Shapeshifter worm's skin back to his original one.
When that happened, the "Aura of the Sea Cave" would be even more useless.
The black-robed man heard Angor's sigh and asked, "Are you not satisfied with the treasure, sir?"
Angor shook his head. "It's very effective. Too bad I'm not a Alteration wizard."
Angor paused and looked at the man. "Compared to the treasure, I prefer to see the sharp fruit."
The man considered for a moment and nodded. "Very well. Please wait a moment, sir."
The black-robed man walked to the box labeled "Mystery Item" and opened it. Inside the box was the familiar blood mist. The black-robed man reached into the box, and a fruit with spiral patterns appeared in his hand.
He put the fruit on his palm and handed it to Angor.
Angor did not take it. "Just put it aside. Don't give it to me. I'm just going to take a look. "
The man did not mind. He raised his hand and summoned a metal platform.
The fruit was left on the pedestal for Angor to observe.
The man did not mind Angor's observation. He did not think Angor could get anything from the fruit's exterior. However, when he saw the golden light around Angor's eyes, he was surprised.
Narda's Vision?
Alchemy's Eye, which could reveal the truth of an item.
Basically, only alchemists could use this kind of spell.
Was this red-haired, golden-eyed guest an alchemist? The black-robed man suddenly remembered what the strange child girl said when she was choosing the "item" list. "Compared to the other boxes, I don't think you'll want to look at the item box."
The black-robed man did not understand what she meant. But after considering the fact that Angor was an "alchemist", he began to understand.
If this person was an alchemist, he would not care about the item because he could make it himself.
Thinking of this, the black-robed man was not only surprised, but also delighted.
Alchemist … The Dark Blood Church did not have any alchemists. Even if they did, they would not send someone like this to the dangerous Mirror Realm.
Therefore, this person was definitely not here to kill him.
And considering what the man said earlier, the black-robed man might be his only hope.
The black-robed man felt a little excited. However, he quickly calmed himself down. Now was not the time to get too excited. He needed to know if this person was capable of doing so. Also, he would have to pay a price if he wanted Angor's help.
The black-robed man was not afraid of paying a price. He was afraid that Angor would not ask for anything in return.
So far, Angor did not show any desire to buy anything. Even the sharp fruit was more of an experiment than a purchase.
The black-robed man felt a little uneasy.
Maybe he had to wait for Angor's request.
…
Angor did not know what the black-robed man was thinking. However, he did sense a great change in the man's mood. Angor did not pay much attention to it though. The black-robed man's mood fluctuated when he used Narda's Vision.
The black-robed man probably guessed that Angor was an alchemist.
Alchemists were rare no matter where they were. It was normal for the black-robed man to feel something.
Compared to the black-robed man's mood, Angor was more curious about the sharp fruit.
There was nothing special about the fruit from its appearance. Blue skin, no fragrance, and circles of spiral patterns. It perfectly fit the description of a fruit that could reduce one's appetite.
However, under Narda's Vision, the fruit kept sending out messages like "I'm an apple, I'm not an apple, I'm an apple, I'm not an apple".
These contradictory messages made Angor feel like the "server" in his mind was about to crash.
As for what was inside the fruit … Narda's Vision could not see it.
However, Angor could vaguely feel that the fruit contained an unknown energy he had never encountered before.
Was this the source of the "special ability" granted by the fruit? Angor could not tell if the energy source was related to an Outer God or not.
The energy of a god usually contained some kind of divinity, but the fruit did not contain such divinity.
Maybe the fruit was not created by an Outer God?
Even so, Angor did not intend to taste it.
After gathering enough information, Angor put away Narda's Vision and looked at the black-robed man.
He was going to say that he was done with his research and could take it away.
But on second thought, he did not think it was a good idea.
After all, the fruit was someone else's product, not his experiment.
Angor cleared his throat. "I heard someone talking about the sharp fruit. They said it came from the Sharpmen Tribe in Drauna Plane. The sharp fruits of different tribes have different effects. I wonder what the effect of this sharp fruit is? "
The man shook his head. "I found it by accident. I did a lot of research, but I couldn't find anything similar. So … I don't know what it does."
Angor did not plan to buy the fruit in the first place. Now that the man mentioned that he did not know the effect of the fruit, he decided to decline.
But before he could say anything, Laplace suddenly said, "This is a sharp fruit cultivated by an Orc Prophet."
Both Angor and the black-robed man looked at Laplace in surprise.
"You know it?" Angor was confused.
Laplace nodded. "I've seen something similar. This should be the fruit cultivated by the Orc Prophet of the Orc Tribe."
"The Orc Tribe is a medium-sized tribe in Drauna Plane. They're good at taming beasts. The ability of their beasts is related to this fruit. "
The black-robed man's eyes lit up. "Sir, you mean this fruit can grant someone the ability to tame a beast?"
If that was the case, it would be a great boon even for him.
Laplace shook his head. "No. This fruit is not for humans. It's for beasts. Its effect is to give beasts that can't speak the ability to speak. "
Angor and the black-robed man did not know what to say.
This ability was really useless.
Even if a supernatural monster could not speak, it could still use spirit energy to send messages. Monsters that could not speak usually lacked intelligence. What was the point of letting them speak? The fruit only allowed beasts to speak. It did not grant them intelligence.
Therefore, this sharp fruit was the worst of the worst.
The black-robed man looked at Angor. "Do you want to see something else, sir?"
Angor did not even need to decline this time. The black-robed man knew that the fruit was too worthless to satisfy Angor's interest.
Angor was right. He could give the fruit to Toby, but he did not think it was necessary. Even if Toby did not speak, Angor would know what Toby meant.
Compared to Toby, Spotted Puppy was a better choice.
However, it wasn't that the dalmatian couldn't speak. It just didn't want to speak in front of him … Wasn't it communicating well with Woof Woof?
Angor did not care about the fruit. Instead, he looked at the last item on the list.
It was Granny Coco's Secret Ritual Box.
