That's right. The ability of the Substitute Spirit Tablet was to help the person who used it block a fatal blow. As for how powerful the fatal blow could be blocked, it completely depended on the method and materials used to make the Substitute Spirit Tablet, as well as the level of the alchemist who made the Substitute Spirit Tablet!
The method of making the Substitute Spirit Tablet was rumored to be the same as the method of making many magic items. It disappeared in the long river of history with the fall of the Byzantine Empire. Connor was surprised when he saw the Substitute Spirit Tablet in Mr. Mustapha's hands. However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that although it was unexpected, it seemed to be reasonable.
From the information that Reyes gave him, Connor knew that many relics from the Byzantine Empire had been unearthed over the years. Many alchemy methods that had long been lost had reappeared in the world. Many wizards, including Reyes, were researching and trying to recover some magical magic items from the Byzantine Empire, such as the Substitute Spirit Tablet.
Perhaps some master alchemist had successfully figured out the method to refine substitute spirit tablets, and Mustapha had gotten his hands on one. Or perhaps Mr. Mustapha had discovered some Byzantine ruins and found substitute spirit tablets one after another. Or perhaps Mr. Mustapha had simply refined a substitute spirit tablet himself. All in all, anything was possible. At the thought of this, Connor couldn't help but take a deep look at Mr. Mustapha who was sitting on the main seat in the hall with an indifferent expression. The identity of this person had always been a mystery. Connor had asked Marguerite, but even the resourceful Marguerite didn't know the origin of this person at all.
Connor felt that the Substitute Spirit Tablet that was worth five thousand gold pounds wouldn't be very effective. Otherwise, Mr. Mustapha wouldn't sell it so easily. Connor's eyes lit up. If he saw the whereabouts of the bearded elder that Mr. Mustapha was looking for, he might as well tell Mr. Mustapha and get the Substitute Spirit Tablet to study and see if he could figure out the method of making the Substitute Spirit Tablet!
Just as Connor continued to ponder if he could use other methods to obtain the life substitution spirit tablet from Mr. Mustapha, the Magi in the hall were still trading. A voice attracted Connor's attention.
"I have a Level 1 Magic Artifact, the Soulbreaker Blade. Everyone, take a look and see if you need it!" At the beginning of the gathering, a thin young man wearing an ordinary black iron mask stood up. His voice sounded a little immature, and it seemed that this person was relatively young.
After glancing at the person who wanted to trade, Connor scrutinized the Spirit Breaking Blade. The Spirit Breaking Blade was a very basic magic item. It had a simple ability to break spells. It had no other use. It was just a little stronger than ordinary cold weapons.
After carefully sizing up the Spirit Breaking Blade, Connor looked at the thin young man wearing the black iron mask with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Based on his experience, this Spirit Breaking Blade had just reached the standard and could be considered a magic item. However, what surprised Connor was that this Spirit Breaking Blade was full of Fire Qi!
The so-called fire aura was a unique aura that would condense when a magic artifact was refined from an alchemist's alchemy furnace. Only alchemists who had been refining magic artifacts for a long time would be able to sense it. This aura was called fire aura by alchemists. Every magic artifact would have a different duration of fire aura after it was refined. However, except for some special magic artifacts, most magic artifacts would have a fire aura that would last for three to seven days!
According to Connor's observation, the Spirit Breaking Blade being sold at this time had a very strong Fire Qi. It should have been refined within three days. Thinking of this, Connor couldn't help but take a deep look at the thin young man who was selling the Spirit Breaking Blade!
"What do you want to exchange it for?" Perhaps because everyone knew that this Spirit Breaking Blade was too ordinary, the hall fell into silence. Just as the thin young man was feeling a little uneasy, a woman in a green cloak sitting in the corner asked softly:
"Cash! It's only … a hundred gold pounds! " Hearing someone ask for a price, the thin young man's tender voice was pleasantly surprised. Obviously, the woman in the green cloak's asking for a price made the thin young man very happy. When he was about to make a bid, he hesitated for a moment before giving a price of a hundred gold pounds!
Hearing the thin young man's bid, Connor, who was sitting in the other corner, shook his head slightly. This thin young man was obviously a rookie. Even if the magic item in his hand was extraordinary, it was still a level one magic item after all. The market price was at least two hundred gold pounds.
Sure enough, once they heard the thin young man's bid, the eyes of several people in the hall lit up. However, because of the rules of the Prospering Club, they didn't dare to act rashly. Seeing this, the woman in the green cloak who had asked for a price at the beginning chuckled and took out ten ten-gold pound notes and threw them to the thin young man.
The thin young man seemed to be very cautious. He carefully checked every note that the woman in the green cloak threw over before reluctantly handing over the Spirit Breaking Blade in his hand. After seeing the woman in the green cloak put the Spirit Breaking Blade into her space ring, he couldn't help but say, "Madam, please treat it well. When I have the money, I will definitely buy it back at a high price!"
The woman in the green cloak was stunned when she heard the thin young man's words, but she wasn't angry. She replied with a smile, "Sure, but when the time comes, I want three times the current price!"
The thin young man nodded heavily under the black iron mask, indicating that he understood. He then turned around and bowed deeply to Mr. Mustapha. He bowed and said, "Honorable sir, I would like to leave in advance!"
In response to the skinny young man's request, Mr. Mustapha did not make things difficult for him. He nodded slightly, and a light screen immediately appeared on the wall of the hall. The skinny young man carried the 100 gold pounds that he had just obtained from selling the Spirit Breaking Blade. Without the slightest hesitation, he stepped into the light screen without looking back.
As the thin young man left, the screen of light also slowly disappeared. Sensing the young man's departure, Connor, who was sitting in the corner of the hall, revealed a playful smile.
The Spirit Breaking Blade was very crudely refined. Some of the details weren't handled at all. It was obvious that it was refined by a beginner. In addition, the Spirit Breaking Blade had a strong fire aura. Connor believed that it was refined by a beginner who had just come into contact with alchemy.
