The production chance is very low, and it's hard to find.
The last time someone found something with the Power of Rules in the Death Swamp Ruins was over a hundred years ago.
Nevertheless, each time the Death Swamp Ruins open, many people still go in.
The Death Swamp Ruins open once every ten years, and this year happens to be the opening time.
The Death Swamp Ruins have long been controlled by major Wizard Families and Wizard Organizations; wizards without a background have no chance of entering.
The entry slots for each faction are also limited, and these slots have already been allocated.
For the Moss Family, losing a few slots is more painful than losing those hundred thousand Magic Stones as compensation.
There are many items in the Death Swamp Ruins that can't be bought with Magic Stones, their value simply can't be measured by Magic Stones.
But, this is the result led by Augustus Academy, even if the Moss Family has complaints, they can only accept it.
...
"Herag, we have a few extra slots now, are you interested in going to the Death Swamp Ruins?" Blake asked with a smile.
Herag did a great service for the Cheqi Family this time by defending the Black Rock Valley and received a reward of five thousand Magic Stones.
Besides, after a discussion, the Cheqi Family decided to grant Herag a slot to enter the Death Swamp Ruins, just to see if Herag wanted to go.
After understanding the matter of the Death Swamp Ruins, Herag began to ponder.
The first thing he considered was the problem of danger.
The interior of the Death Swamp Ruins is certainly full of dangers, although after so many years of exploration, various factions are already clear about which places to go and which places are best not to go.
But once inside, it's hard to say what variables may emerge.
However, danger also comes with opportunities; there are many good things inside.
Especially items with the Power of Rules. Although Herag is currently only gaseous, he will eventually achieve crystalization in the future.
If he can obtain them in advance, it will certainly be of great help in the future, at least increasing the chances of advancing to a Level 2 Wizard.
The Death Swamp Ruins open once every ten years; if missed, one must wait another ten years.
The Cheqi Family especially gave Herag a slot as a form of welfare for him.
Because more people from the Cheqi Family are going in this time, naturally making them stronger.
Herag just needs to follow them and pick up some things along the way, which would be a considerable gain.
Herag felt somewhat tempted, but still thought it wasn't stable enough; what if he encountered some unexpected events once inside?
He thought that going was possible, but he needed to be well-prepared, Herag thought to himself.
"How long until the Death Swamp Ruins open?" Herag asked.
Blake replied, "Three months."
"Three months, that should be enough. Alright, I'll prepare during this period." Herag pondered and then agreed.
Currently, he at least has some ability to protect himself, unlike before when he was so fragile.
Since he decided to go to the Death Swamp Ruins, naturally he needs to be well-prepared.
His strength won't increase significantly in three months, so he needs to leverage external items.
Herag just uses this opportunity to test some of his ideas.
He returned to his underground laboratory: "Shenlan, infer a method to create a demonized item. Requirements: possess enough stability, can be detonated by command, structure may be similar to various bombs from the previous life, and the materials should be relatively easy to obtain."
Herag wanted to create a bomb-like demonized item; he hadn't seen such a thing yet, at least wizards in the Barren Land hadn't created similar items.
With his experience from his previous life, he naturally knows what kind of power can be born when energy is compressed and released, hence he uses this opportunity to experiment.
"Task archived, inference in progress, expected to take five hours," Shenlan provided the estimated time.
The creation method of demonized items was already recorded in Shenlan's database, but Herag had not actually created one.
Five hours later.
"Inference completed. Based on current data, the inferred structure is as follows."
A circular structure appeared before Herag's eyes, with a red crystal inside and wrapped in animal fur externally.
"Materials used are: Fire Salamander Crystal, Fire Salamander Fur, Saltpeter, Mandrake Juice..."
Herag noted the main materials come from a type of demon called the Fire Salamander.
This demon exists in many places in the Barren Land, and after maturity, the Fire Salamander will have a Fire Salamander Crystal inside.
The Fire Salamander can use this crystal to eject flames at extremely high temperatures, which is also the Fire Salamander's most important energy source.
The structure inferred by Shenlan primarily employs the Fire Salamander Crystal as the core, utilizes magic power to ignite the crystal, then coupled with special structures and other ingredients to produce a powerful explosive force.
Because it is wrapped externally with Fire Salamander Fur, it inherently has very good compatibility, ensuring sufficient stability.
Usage is simple too; before using, infuse a bit of magic power into the sphere, then detonate through pre-set phonetic commands.
The structure is already established; the next step is experimentation.
The first issue is raw materials. Herag approached Blake and asked, "Mr. Blake, can you help me procure a batch of Fire Salamander Crystals and Fire Salamander Fur?"
"Fire Salamander? What do you want that for?" Blake asked with confusion.
Fire Salamander Crystals are casting materials for some Fire Magic spells, but Herag specializes in Dark Energy Element, typically not purchasing these items.
Herag explained, "For some experiments."
Blake didn't ask much, nodding, "No problem, if I recall correctly, a set of Fire Salamander Crystals along with Fire Salamander Fur should cost about thirty Magic Stones, this stuff isn't expensive, how much do you need?"
"Let's start with ten sets; I might need more later."
Herag didn't purchase a large quantity; he needed to first make the item through experiments, then verify if the power was satisfactory.
If unsatisfactory, he'd definitely need to change materials and formulas; buying a lot would be wasteful.
Three days later, ten Fire Salamander Crystals and ten pieces of Fire Salamander Fur were delivered.
The Fire Salamander Fur was small, just enough to wrap around one set.
The Fire Salamander itself is relatively small, only the size of a house cat, so the fur correspondingly is small.
After paying three hundred Magic Stones, Herag hurried back to the underground laboratory to start his first demonized item creation.
His status in the Cheqi Family rapidly rose, almost all his requests were granted, so these materials could be purchased quickly.
Returning to the basement, Herag began crafting demonized items according to the structured inference by Shenlan.
The structure was actually quite simple, far less complex than crafting magic potions.
Before long, Herag had a leather ball in his hands.
