Chapter 29: Weekly Gains {Please read on!}
Silently, I returned from the third floor to the first floor.
Viktor's mood had undergone a complete transformation.
The sudden pressure from Manugs forced him to disrupt his previously established development plan, and he would undoubtedly have to add a course on physical alchemy next.
However... Viktor looked at the notes Manugs had given him, and there was some good news.
At least this notebook is pretty good:
[Equipable item detected: Manugs' Body Transmutation Notebook]
[Equipping this item grants the following attribute: Cyber Doctor Lv1 — You have a thorough understanding of the human body's structure, and the negative effects of performing any physical modifications are reduced.]
[Requirement for absorbing equipment: Successfully complete one physical alchemy modification]
[Replace this equipment?]
Even now, Viktor hasn't decided on the direction he's heading.
But because of Manugges' influence, he is already moving in the direction of the other party.
With this entry on prosthetic doctors, and the help of the Inspiration Gate, he might be able to improve his proficiency in body alchemy in no time.
After all, physical alchemy is not like ancient runes, which have strict requirements on the wizard's own strength... As long as the understanding of alchemy is in place, even a low-level wizard apprentice like Victor can still complete a physical transformation with the help of tools.
If the capabilities are insufficient, it can be quite troublesome if problems arise during the experiment.
If word got out that a wizard couldn't defeat his own experimental subject, the Morning Star Wizarding Academy would be disgraced.
......
Manugs did not reappear for the remainder of the time.
Viktor was happy to have some peace and quiet, so he studied his alchemy notes while organizing his plans for the future.
Since enrolling, he has already established himself firmly in the college.
Not only is his alchemy progressing well, but he has also awakened a bloodline, gained the approval of his mentor Manuges, and is exploring an increasingly wider range of topics.
Without a doubt, all of this is due to the equipment slots.
Therefore, we should prioritize devouring equipment!
Let's take stock of what Viktor can equip and devour now... The most important of these is naturally the 'Silver Key,' which provides the 'Gate of Inspiration' entry, serving as his current foundation.
Secondly, there's the 'Physical Alchemy Notebook' that I just got my hands on.
In the coming period, he will begin to learn about body alchemy technology, so the term "cyborg doctor" is indispensable and can help him save a lot of time.
Finally, there were the magical items we had obtained earlier.
Of all the items, the only one that Victor truly values is the "Magic Shell".
This thing can further enhance his survivability. Even though he already has the breathing and health regeneration technique, plus the Blood Shield, you can never have too many life-saving items.
As for other magical items... well, they're not entirely useless, but most of them are utterly worthless. Either their effects are terrible, or, like the 'Vampire Fang,' they have very obvious side effects.
However, a week has passed, and Viktor had agreed with Viper to deliver the magical items he had collected once a week. It's unclear whether he has gained anything from it.
......
Nighttime.
After adjusting the production line's efficiency slightly to ensure stable operation throughout the night, Victor left the laboratory building and headed home.
It took a while to get home, and I opened the door.
Vivian, looking annoyed, was standing by the window. When she heard the sound, she turned around and saw that it was Viktor. She instinctively snorted and turned away, looking like she didn't want to talk to him.
Viktor, in turn, ignored her.
As if he weren't even in the room, he didn't even glance at the person, walked straight to the desk, pulled out a chair, sat down, and began tidying up the messy surface.
His dismissive attitude was infuriating. Vivian gritted her teeth for a long time, but finally couldn't hold back and walked over to ask:
"Victor, when are you going to keep your promise and give me the meditation technique?"
Victor didn't even look up:
"When you can understand your situation."
Vivian clenched her fists:
"I've figured out my situation!"
Victor turned his head to look at her, his gaze falling on her tightly clenched fists, then shifting to her delicate face, a mocking smile playing on his lips:
"Vivian, please don't say such stupid things!"
"If you truly understood your situation, you would never speak to me in this tone."
"You don't even have the slightest respect for me, your older brother. How can I entrust you with the meditation method?"
"Respect? You actually have the nerve to talk about respect?"
Vivian felt a tightness in her chest from anger.
What a joke! This person actually knows he's the older brother... What kind of older brother, upon seeing his younger sister, would first resort to threats and inducements, or unleash a magical energy attack at the slightest provocation?
She was injured a week ago and still has a large bruise. How dare this guy ask for her respect?
If this guy hadn't told her he could help her become a wizard... she would rather die than have anything to do with him again!
Thinking of this, Vivian took another deep breath, forcibly suppressing her anger and trying to calm herself down... After a dozen seconds, her rapid breathing finally subsided.
She didn't press Viktor for more information, but instead glared at him fiercely from behind before turning back to sit on the bed, lost in thought.
Victor was unimpressed by her actions.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that his adopted sister seemed to possess some secrets about the family treasures that might come in handy, he probably wouldn't have brought her back at all, regardless of whether she lived or died!
But since we brought it back, we should make good use of it.
Like herself, she had awakened the blood of mercury, so she must have enough talent to become a wizard.
However, if she cannot obey orders and cannot fulfill her commands, then becoming a wizard will be of no use to her and will only bring trouble.
So what Viktor is doing now is training the eagle.
Perhaps in Vivian's heart, she was always dissatisfied with him and always harbored hatred, but she didn't need him to be as obedient to her from the bottom of his heart as Gal. As long as she could control him and make him roughly follow her ideas, that was enough.
Obviously, this will take some time.
Fortunately, unlike Vivian, who was still filled with anxiety, Victor, who held the initiative, was not in a hurry...
QQ!
There was a gentle knock on the door, and Victor looked up to invite him in.
Gal pushed open the door, carrying a package as he walked in. He nodded to Vivian, who was looking over, then walked to Viktor's side and carefully placed the package on the desk.
"Your Highness, this is what the viper collected in a week."
"There are four items in total, and according to him, he has found some clues about the ruins of ancient wizards. If all goes well, he may be able to find some new items that have entered the West District."
At this point, Garr looked at Viktor:
"But he said it might require some magic stones as funds for the purchase."
"Your Highness, I think this is probably just his excuse."
"Do you think we should give it to him?"
