Chapter 168: Magic Item

Chapter 168: Chapter 168 – Magic Item

“Even though the toughness of Magic Iron Metal is not that great, it should be enough to make some simple things…”

After returning to his room, Chen Heng looked at the materials in his hands and thought to himself.

Following this, he picked up a deep-black metal and closely examined it.

A slight trace of magic power slowly flowed from his hand into the metal.

As the magic power went through it, the black metal went through some changes.

Observing the changes in the metal, Chen Heng nodded.

Magic power was the highly-condensed version of elemental particles.

When such a thing flowed through other things, it would affect the constitution of those things and cause them to go through changes.

It could be said that if an ordinary rock was refined by magic power for a long time, it would go through massive changes and become a magic item.

Of course, this was very difficult.

After all, different objects had different resistances towards magic power, so the amount of time and magic power required for different objects was different.

It was almost impossible even for true Sorcerers to turn an ordinary rock into a magic item.

However, for Magic Iron Metal, it was much easier.

As long as it had magic power, it could go through changes.

Because of this, Magic Iron Metal was very commonly used.

Looking at the Magic Iron Metal going through changes, Chen Heng thought to himself.

“Can I make some improvements?”

From how he saw it, the magic-infusing process was not very complicated.

He just needed to continuously use magic power to nurture the object.

Let alone Sorcerers, even a First Rank Apprentice with magic power could do this.

In other words, he could have other people do this step.

“If I can set up a Sorcerer Formation that can store magic power and have other people store their magic power in it, then the magic-infusing process will be much more convenient…”

Chen Heng thought to himself.

Perhaps this was a habit from previous simulations, or because he came from a modern society, but he liked to do things quickly and efficiently.

“I might as well try it.”

However, storing other people’s magic power to use at other times was actually quite difficult for Sorcerers.

At the very least, the Hunter’s House had not worked out how to do this.

However, there was already a solution in another world.

In the Azure Heaven Realm, there was a Rune Formation that could do this. However, it did not store magic power but spirit energy.

But, the principles were the same.

For Chen Heng, as long as he could make clear the difference between magic power and spirit energy, he could modify that Rune Formation and make a similar Sorcerer Formation.

This was very important.

At the very least, such Rune Formations were the foundation of many things, while such things had not been developed in this world yet.

This was an opportunity.

Chen Heng could not help but grin as he thought to himself.

If he could create that formation in this world, this would be a massive advantage for him.

However, right now, he still had to properly do it himself.

If he wanted to unleash the ideas in his mind, he had to at least become a true Sorcerer first.

Otherwise, this kind of thing might just benefit someone else.

After thinking to himself, he walked out.

He could not replicate the Azure Heaven Realm’s Rune Formation for now, but that did not mean he did not have other methods.

He could hire other Apprentices and have them help.

The connections he had developed from his lessons were now quite useful.

Soon, he found a few Apprentices and paid them one magic stone each to infuse a few Magic Iron Metals with magic power.

They signed contracts which were witnessed, after which Chen Heng turned and left.

By the side, Zana felt quite confused, “Aren’t these just normal materials? Why do you need to waste magic stones?”

She could not understand.

From how she saw it, magic stones were quite valuable, and even one should not be wasted.

Since it was something that he could do with just some time, why was he wasting magic stones to have other Apprentices do it?

In response, Chen Heng only smiled but did not say anything.

For most people, they expended time and effort to obtain payment.

………

On the other hand, Chen Heng was using money to buy time.

For things that could not bring about advancement, he could have others do it for him.

After all, now that he had a good income stream, he was not lacking in magic stones.

However, other people could not understand him.

Chen Heng continued on and headed to a classroom.

…

“Well answered.”

Within a large classroom, the Apprentice wearing a black Sorcerer’s robe and standing at the lectern could not help but clap as he looked at Chen Heng and said, “Mister Ed, you are, without a doubt the most talented student I have seen in runes. If I didn’t see it for myself, I would not have been able to believe that you were just an ordinary student not too long ago.”

The teacher sighed as he said, “In the future, I hope to be able to work together with you on some experiments. I’m sure that with your assistance, many of my problems will quickly disappear.”

“You’re praising me too much,” Chen Heng said with a slight smile, “Your knowledge on runes is incredible and I would be honored to work together with you.”

“I look forward to it then.”

The teacher gave a slight smile and his expression towards Chen Heng became warmer.

The others in the classroom stared at Chen Heng with complicated looks on their faces.

It had been another two months since then.

During those two months, Chen Heng had learned much.

During that time, all of the students had personally seen Chen Heng’s progress, and they had seen his knowledge go from a beginner’s to almost an expert’s.

By now, he could easily answer some difficult questions.

Some of those questions were even ones that true Sorcerers would struggle with.

“Is he really a normal person?”

Someone could not help but say as he sighed, “With this kind of talent and aptitude, even those teachers when they were young most likely would not be able to compare to him…”

To other people, Chen Heng’s recent performance was simply legendary.

Back when they had first started this class, Chen Heng had just been a complete beginner.

Now, he could have in-depth discussions with the teachers and work through some difficult questions.

All of the students had watched this go on, and from the start, it had only been two months.

For most other people, they could barely keep up in two months, and many of them had fallen behind.

However, Chen Heng…

“I heard that Mister Ed has also been giving lessons in his own time and giving out his knowledge…”

Some people whispered to each other, “How about we also…”

Sitting at his seat, Chen Heng sensed the reactions around him and maintained a slight smile on his face.

He knew that his performance was quite good.

By acting like a genius, not only did more people take him seriously, but many students also decided to go to his lessons.

As more and more people came to Chen Heng’s lessons, he would begin to have more influence in the academy.

This was quite good.

After the lesson ended, Chen Heng hurriedly left the classroom and went to a different place.

Soon, he came to a laboratory.

There were many things in the laboratory, including very precise tools and equipment.

These were all given by the academy.

In order to enter this laboratory, Chen Heng had asked Michael for permission.

After walking into the laboratory, Chen Heng took out the things that he had brought—it was the Magic Iron Metal he had given to those other Apprentices.

After two months, the Magic Iron Metal had been turned into magic items and some properties had been activated.

“Not bad.”

Looking at those things, Chen Heng felt quite pleased and began to try some things out.

After the past few months of studying, he had learned much about this world’s Sorcerer Formations and runes.

Even though his knowledge was not very profound, coupled with his original understanding of runes, he could try to do some things.

“Let’s try Mental Intimidation…” Chen Heng thought to himself.

What he wanted to do was to try to combine the Azure Heaven Realm’s runes and the Sorcerers’ rune studies to create a basic magic tool.

The first thing was to engrave a basic magic skill on this magic item.

Right now, the only magic skill that Chen Heng had was Mental Intimidation.

This magic skill did not need large amounts of magic power; as long as one’s mental energy was enough, that was sufficient.

This was a suitable magic skill for Chen Heng to use because he had already become proficient at it back when he was still with Griffin.

After entering the Hunter’s House, because he had been focusing on gaining all kinds of knowledge, he had not spent any time on learning magic skills.

After all, he was quite safe in the Hunter’s House.

Moreover, learning some magic skills required his magic power to reach a certain level, whereas Chen Heng did not have much magic power just yet.

As such, he did not focus on learning magic skills for now.

“It’s not too bad though,” thinking ofthe composition of the magic skill, Chen Heng thought to himself, “Mental Intimidation is more difficult than some other magic skills, but its composition is more stable and it is less likely for accidents to happen.”

It was not possible to engrave all magic skills on magic items; there were certain requirements for the frameworks of the magic skills.

If the framework of the magic skill was not stable enough, it was difficult to stabilize the magic skill in the magic item.

Of course, with Chen Heng’s knowledge, modifying some basic magic skills’ frameworks was not impossible.

However, it would be quite time-consuming, so he decided to just use magic skills that could be directly applied.

As Chen Heng thought to himself, his hands continuously moved.

He used a thin needle to add special materials onto the metal, forming diagrams and symbols.

After doing this, he used his magic power and powerful mental energy to stabilize the Mental Intimidation magic skill in the magic item.

The process looked simple, but it took Chen Heng half a day.

Only after half a day did Chen Heng look up and lightly breathe out.

The completed product was before his eyes.

After completing it, there was a unique insignia in front of him.

The insignia was circular in shape and had a unique pattern on it, and it looked quite beautiful.

The ripple of a magic item continuously appeared on it.

After this magic item’s properties completely stabilized in a couple months, it would no longer give off such evident aura ripples.

“It’s done…”

Looking at the insignia, Chen Heng gave a slight smile.

Only very few Sorcerers who specialized in magic tools could engrave magic skills into materials, allowing other people to use those magic skills.

For Chen Heng to be able to do such a thing demonstrated his skill.

However, compared to the real magic tools of this world, the thing he had created was much inferior and could only be said to be a strengthened magic item.

Even though this insignia had the framework of Mental Intimidation engraved onto it, because of the material’s quality and Chen Heng’s own skill, the framework was not very solid.

As it was used, the insignia would continuously break down, and it would eventually become unusable.

Moreover, because it lacked a way to store magic power, this insignia required the user to use their magic power and mental energy.

In other words, it only allowed Sorcerers who did not know this skill to be able to use it; as for ordinary people, they would not be able to use it.

After all, their mental energy was not strong enough and could not enliven this insignia’s magic skill framework and draw out its power.

Overall, to Chen Heng, this was just a low-grade item that was not that great.

However, this was still quite incredible.

Apart from official Sorcerers, it was incredibly difficult for anyone else to do this.

Perhaps Third Rank Apprentice would grasp one or two magic skill frameworks, but for First Rank Apprentices and Second Rank Apprentices, they would not be able to use the magic skills at all.

This meant that apart from being powerful themselves, they would not have many tricks up their sleeves.

However, this insignia would allow them to use the magic skills contained within.

This was quite amazing.

Even though it was not a true magic tool, it was still quite fantastic among magic items.

“I wonder how many magic stones I can sell this for,” Chen Heng wondered in curiosity.

From how he saw it, this insignia should be worth at least 20 magic stones on the market.

Adding on the original price of the materials, as well as the fees from hiring Apprentices to imbue the magic item with magic power, the returns were quite good.

It had taken him half a day to make this insignia, and this efficacy was incredibly good, even for other Sorcerers.

However, Chen Heng was not very pleased with it.

As such, what he was going to do now was not create more of these insignias but find ways to make the process more efficient and reduce the time it took him to make them.

As such, in the following days, Chen Heng did not go out. Instead, he stayed in the laboratory and used various equipment to do tests.

Only after a few days did he come out.

After walking out of the laboratory, he went to the student market and set up a small stall.

What he was selling were naturally the things he had just created.

At first, no one asked about them. However, as people realized their value, they quickly sold out.

This was not strange.

Magic items were relatively rare and valuable.

Good quality magic items could even be passed down in some small families as heirlooms.
