There were many kinds of Mystery items. Some were created by oneself, some were born naturally, and some were derived from the strange talents of certain living beings.
This was the case with the mysterious item, Tang Xiaer's False Teeth.
Although Tang Xiale's teeth brought him endless nightmares in his life, from another point of view, it was actually a gift he was born with. Did a negative talent count as … a talent? Sort of.
In the end, Tang Xiaer's "teeth" became a Mystery item due to some unknown circumstances.
It was a Mystery item that many people despised, but it was still a Mystery item.
Similarly, Angor believed that Ai Dehua's strange talent might also give birth to a Mystery item.
Just like Tang Xiaer's teeth.
It was a far-fetched guess, and it was based on Angor's own experience. But somehow, Angor felt that it was highly possible.
Ai Dehua's talent was just too strange.
Angor had seen many strange talents before, but Ai Dehua's talent only relied on a not-so-powerful "fairy blood" to create a shocking effect out of thin air.
There was only one such talent.
This ability to create special effects out of thin air already had a hint of mystery.
Perhaps Ai Dehua's talent would really create a Mystery item in the future.
However, generally speaking, this kind of Mystery Object that was derived from a miraculous talent would only become a Mystery Object after the death of a living being.
Ai Dehua's talent could never turn into a Mystery item while he was still alive.
Then … should I kill him?
Angor rubbed his chin and looked at Ai Dehua from head to toe. He decided against it.
This was because even if it was a mysterious item derived from a miraculous talent, it still needed a certain "right time, right place, and right people". Take "Tang Xiaer's Teeth" for example. If Tang Xiaer killed himself when he felt a toothache, his teeth might not turn into a Mystery item.
The effect of the Mystery item was to cause toothache to a specific target or someone within a certain range.
Before Tang Xiaer's death, people thought that he was faking the pain. He felt that no one could understand him. He felt that the world was unfair. All these thoughts turned into a strong obsession.
Perhaps this obsession was the main reason why his teeth had transformed into a mysterious object.
Therefore, without the right time, place, and people, it was basically impossible for Tang Xiale's teeth to transform into a Mystery item by killing it directly.
Similarly, even if Ai Dehua's talent had a chance of transforming into a Mystery Item, without the right time, place, and people, there was no way it could become a Mystery Item.
As for … secretly plotting to create some obsessions for Ai Dehua, and then catalyzing the birth of the mysterious item …
Yes, it was possible.
But how can you be sure what kind of obsession Ai Dehua's talent needs to transform into a Mystery item? If the obsession you nurtured was not compatible with your talent, then it would be useless.
The thought of "killing Ai Dehua" flashed across his mind, but he quickly regained his rationality.
Angor was quite greedy for Mystery items. However, he was someone who had come into contact with the Half-Mystical level before, and had even crafted more than one Half-Mystical level secret treasure.
He was confident that he could craft a Mystery item by himself in the future.
Therefore, he was able to suppress the greed in his heart.
If it were anyone else, even if the probability was very low, they would still try to gamble.
"Why are you spacing out all of a sudden? Do you have an idea? "Luigi looked at Angor with a puzzled look.
Idea? Angor almost wanted to tell Luigi about his opinion of Tang Xiale's talent, but he decided against it.
He believed that Luigi, Laplace, and the others would not be tempted by Tang Xiale's talent as long as he explained the situation to them. However, there was an outsider here — Steward Fan.
If Steward Fan knew about this, he might have other ideas. After all, who wouldn't want a Mystery item?
Besides, even if they were certain that they would not do such a thing, they could still be controlled by their subconscious mind, and their thoughts and actions would "change" unconsciously.
Even Luigi could do the same.
So it was better not to tell.
"Nothing. I was just thinking about the potential of Ai Dehua's talent."
"Do you think it has potential?" Luigi asked curiously.
Everyone looked at Angor. Even Ai Dehua couldn't help but look at Angor.
Ai Dehua felt a chill down his spine when Angor looked at him. However, it only lasted for a moment. Ai Dehua was not sure if it was just his imagination, so he decided to forget about it for now.
Compared to these difficult questions, he was more curious about what Angor would say about his own talent after he mentioned that there was a "limit" to his talent.
Angor shrugged. "I only saw the wig. I didn't see how he made it, so it's hard for me to tell."
"After all, what you hear may be false, but seeing is believing."
"So, if you want me to evaluate his talent and potential objectively, I can't do that for the time being. Unless … "
He paused and looked at Ai Dehua with a gloomy look.
Edward was stunned. He stretched out his finger and pointed at the bridge of his nose. "Ah? You mean … you want me to make it now? "
"Will it take you a lot of time to make it?"
Ai Dehua scratched the wig on his head. "It's fine if it takes time. But if I have prepared the hair, nets, dyes, and other materials, it'll only take half an hour. "
Ai Dehua looked a little embarrassed. "I have some basic hair, fake skin, nets, and dyes, but I don't have any main materials."
Main materials and auxiliary materials were the foundation of a supernatural item.
The other materials used to make a wig could be ordinary, but not the main materials and auxiliary materials. They determined whether the wig could have special effects.
If Ai Dehua was still in Lorenby, he would not have to worry about finding supernatural materials. However, he was thrown into the Instrument World by Ronan and stayed there for nearly eight hundred years.
Moreover, there was a long period of time where he stayed in the knight's castle where Transcendent materials were even rarer.
Ai Dehua's main materials and auxiliary materials had long been used up.
He took the risk to come to Crystal City for two reasons. First, he wanted to learn the abilities of the Crystaleyes race. Second, he wanted to earn some crystals to buy supernatural materials.
"What kind of materials do you want?"
"Huh?" Ai Dehua widened his eyes.
"What kind of supernatural material do you want? Tell me. I'll see if I have any. "
Ai Dehua did not expect Angor to provide materials for him. Just to determine his potential talent?
Ai Dehua thought for a moment and said, "The wigs I make might not have special effects every time. If they don't, your materials will be wasted, sir. "
"Don't worry about it."
Ai Dehua looked at Angor's stubborn eyes and decided to do it.
He already told Angor everything he needed to know. He could only leave it to fate to see if the wig would work. If it did not, he could only blame it on fate.
"Tell me, what kind of material do you want?"
Ai Dehua considered for a moment. "I'll give it to you, sir. As long as it can be fused into the hair, anything will do."
At first, Ai Dehua wanted to ask for some supernatural materials that he often used. However, he was in the Mirror Realm, and it would be difficult for him to find them. Besides, he did not know much about the materials in the Mirror Realm, so he decided to just ask for something random.
In any case, his talent allowed him to sense the direction of the life force in the hair, as well as the energy veins.
As long as the material could be fused into the hair, and the property of the material was not too lazy, he could slowly sort it out with his talent.
However, whether or not the wig would have any special effects, and what kind of special effects they would have, would depend on luck.
"Materials that can be fused into the hair?"
With a wave of his hand, hundreds of different supernatural materials appeared in front of Ai Dehua.
Ai Dehua looked at the glowing materials in front of him and was stunned for a few seconds.
Was this guy carrying a material warehouse with him?
Even if an ordinary Adept needed certain materials for their own research or casting spells, they would only bring a few of the relevant materials.
And the materials he brought out were all kinds of materials.
Most of them were low-tiered, but they were still more than 99% of wizards.
Ai Dehua could only think of alchemists or runemasters who would carry so many materials with them.
Was Angor one of them?
Ai Dehua did not dare to ask. He only kept it in mind.
"Take your pick. If you don't have enough, I have more."
Edward hurriedly said, "That's enough, that's enough. I only need one or two things to make a wig."
"One or two will be enough?"
Ai Dehua considered. "Three or four. Four or five will do."
Angor waved a hand. "Take your pick. Take as many as you can."
To him, they were all low-level materials for general use. If he ran out of them, he could always buy more in the market.
Ai Dehua nodded and looked at the materials on the table again.
If Angor was willing to give him so many materials and let him choose, it meant that he wanted Ai Dehua to do his best to make the wig.
Ai Dehua did not dare to slack off.
These materials …
There were many types of supernatural materials on the table, but they could be divided into three categories: minerals, magical plants, and pure energy materials.
Minerals included metals, magical ores, magical blood ores, and so on.
However, Ai Dehua only glanced at them briefly before looking away. Also, he only looked at the soft and liquid metals.
As for the other ores, he had no interest in them.
It was not that the ores could not be fused into hair, but they had low compatibility and needed to be ground into powder. Grinding the powder would consume a lot of energy from the ores, so it was not necessary.
Unless he had an alchemist who could help him refine the ores, he would not use the ores.
As for magical plants, Ai Dehua could choose to use them. Some magical plants could even be used to make hair strands if they were slightly processed.
Speaking of hair, Ai Dehua suddenly thought of something.
Ai Dehua looked up. "What kind of wig do you want, mister? Who are you going to make it for? "
Since the materials came from him, the wig would belong to him as well.
So Angor was going to make a wig for himself?
With that in mind, Ai Dehua looked up and saw Angor's messy red hair. As a makeup artist, Angor felt that the hair did not match. Maybe it was fake?
This was normal. It was common for Sorcerers to disguise themselves in order to not be seen by others when they traveled outside. Or maybe it was not a disguise. Angor simply liked red hair, and he did not have red hair himself, so he modified it.
This was also very common. Compared to changing hair color, there were many wizards who liked to dress up in strange ways, and there were even people who modified their bodies.
Ai Dehua's mind wandered, and he noticed Ai Dehua looking at him.
"You don't have to make my wig."
He did not mind wearing a wig. However, if he really wanted to make one for himself, he still wanted to be careful. At least, he needed to have a plan in advance and check the design sketch to see if it was suitable for him.
Otherwise, he would not be wearing a colorful chicken coop like Ai Dehua right now.
Now, Ai Dehua was only making wigs for "display", which meant Angor did not want to be a "model".
Ai Dehua looked at the other people at the table.
His gaze lingered on Laplace and Ai Dehua's avatar for a second longer. Everyone here could make wigs, but Ai Dehua was better at making one for a beautiful woman.
When Ai Dehua looked at Laplace and the avatar, Angor also glanced at them out of the corner of his eyes.
And he received a "Cold Eyes".
Angor pretended that he did not see anything and looked away.
Laplace didn't say anything. Instead, his clone said, "If you can make hair that's better than mine and hers, you can do it. If you can't, then don't get involved. "
As she spoke, the hair of the doppelganger floated up and weaved into a void throne. She sat on the floating throne and looked down at Ai Dehua.
Ai Dehua immediately sensed the terrifying energy coming from the avatar's hair and lowered his head in fear.
Hair of this level …
He could not make something like this even if he had the best materials!
