Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm

Chapter 35: Generous Shi Liang

"We have signed this cursed contract."

Once their attitude was confirmed, they acted extremely quickly. Shi Liang and the old butler quickly imprinted their mental power on the curse contract.

The contract was completed, and Zhan Kong and Li Yu also told the two the secrets they had concealed.

……

"I see. I didn't expect that Brother Li actually has such a sensitive identity."

The old butler looked at the normal Li Yu in shock. If it hadn't been explained in advance, who would have thought that such an ordinary boy would be the legendary disaster victim? No wonder Zhan Kong needed them to sign a curse contract.

Then they cursed all countries for their inaction, blaming these insects for their long-term demonization of the disaster victims, making everyone think that the disaster victims are walking disasters.

Look at Li Yu, what an honest young man he is. He loves life and helps the weak. He is simply a good young man of the new century.

Unlike the old butler who was shocked, Shi Liang was a little surprised, but more excited. At this moment, he was looking Li Yu up and down carefully with shining eyes, as if he was a butcher who was thinking about where to start the knife. Although the scalpel did not fall on Li Yu, the latter already felt a slight chill.

Li Yu couldn't help but quietly move away from Shi Liang's position.

It's no wonder that Shi Liang acts like a crazy magician. It's just that Li Yu's identity is too tempting to a magic researcher like him.

There were only a dozen or so samples in the world, and they were sitting right in front of him...

Bro, it smells good!
That thing called the Cursed Contract is worth signing!
He has only kept it a secret for twenty years. With such a special sample for his own research, why would he go out?
All outsiders are not allowed to see each other. All matters can be left to Grandpa Chen. The old man is very cunning... Oh no, he should be very shrewd and resourceful. I believe he can solve all problems.

As for why Zhan Kong only asked Shi Liang and the other two to keep the secret for twenty years...

He didn't dare to imagine what strength Li Yu would be able to achieve in twenty years. What kind of hidden hammer is this? Holy City? Come on, let's fight head-on!
Moreover, Zhan Kong and Li Yu soon discovered the unexpected benefits of working with Shi Liang.

"What kind of rubbish is this Siye necklace?"

After hearing how the two of them helped Li Yu hide his lightning ability, Shi Liang sneered.

"Grandpa Chen, come and take out the concentration suit that we took in the imperial capital."

Shi Liang waved his hand and said generously.

"Okay, master."

The old butler bowed slightly, turned around and left the reception room, leaving behind the two poor men, Zhan Kong and Li Yu, who were deeply shocked.

"Concentration suit?"

Zhan Kong dug out this familiar name from deep in his memory. Coming from a wealthy family, he was not sure whether the meaning of this word was consistent with his understanding.

Li Yu didn't know what the mind-concentrating suit was, but just from the literal meaning he could roughly guess that it should be a set of magic weapons for concentrating the mind.

Mom!
The friends I made randomly on the street seemed to have some wealth!

The Mind Concentrating Magical Weapon is a treasure that is no less precious than the Stardust Magical Weapon!
Especially since this is a set, there must be more than one piece. Its value must be at least 10 or 20 million, right?
Just when Li Yu thought he had overestimated Shi Liang's financial resources, Zhan Kong's commentary almost scared him off the sofa.

"Master Shi is really generous!"

"A set of spirit-concentrating equipment worth hundreds of millions will be given away immediately."

"How much...how much?"

Li Yu's tone began to go off track as he asked in disbelief.

Hundreds of millions?!
Their family has been kneeling for generations, so when has they ever seen so much money?
A year ago, a pancake fell from the sky and hit me on the head in the wild, and it was probably about this amount.

This time, Zhan Kong unexpectedly did not mock Li Yu for being "inexperienced". He was also surprised at Shi Liang's handwriting.

"Does the Concentrated Devil Device know about this?"

"know."

Li Yu was a top student who was admitted to Tianlan Magic High School with excellent grades. He had been to the library a lot, so he naturally knew about this kind of expensive magic weapon.

"The functions of the Mind Concentration Set and the Mind Concentration Magical Device are similar, but because each part of the Mind Concentration Set can be regarded as an independent Mind Concentration Magical Device, it can be used more often than a single Mind Concentration Magical Device."

"Moreover, the Concentration Set has a relatively important effect that the Concentration Magical Equipment does not have. This is its greatest value."

"What effect?"

"Increase the magician's spiritual power level."

"Spiritual level?"

Li Yu finally began to show the confusion of a poor student. What is this? The books in the library don't have it!
Fortunately, Zhan Kong acted as an excellent commentator.
"This is knowledge that can only be accessed in magic schools." "I won't explain it if it's too complicated. You just need to know that the mental power level is divided into nine levels, with level one being the lowest and level nine being the highest."

At this point, Li Yu couldn't wait to ask Zhan Kong what level his spiritual level should be, but was met with a somewhat contemptuous look from Zhan Kong.
"you?"

“Now I’m probably at the level of just entering the first realm.”

"what?"

The corners of Li Yu's mouth twitched uncontrollably. For the first time, he wanted to refute Zhan Kong's answer, but then he thought that the other party had no reason to deceive him, so he could only accept the evaluation with tears in his eyes.

But it also felt incredible. After all, his lightning magic had just entered the intermediate third level, which made him a small elite monster. How come his mental power level was so low?

Zhan Kong promptly gave Li Yu a reassuring explanation.

"Your mental power level is already quite high. You can fight against the magician who has just entered the advanced level."

"You have to know that the spiritual power level of most mid-level and beginner mages is not up to par, and they can't even touch the first level."

"Only space, mind, and curse mages have relatively higher mental power levels due to their own special features."

Li Yu felt a little relieved. It seemed that he was not bad after all!
Until he asked again,
"What about your spiritual power level, Boss Zhankong?"

"Me? I'm probably at the upper fourth realm level. I got hurt a bit back then, and haven't made much progress over the years."

Zhan Kong seemed to be calmly recalling his lost youthful years.

Four realms?!
Li Yu was speechless again.

The high-level magician has just touched the threshold of the first realm, and you are actually at the fourth realm?
Are you a super-class wizard?
Shi Liang, who had not had time to speak, finally found an opportunity to take advantage of the situation and exclaimed:

"With such a strong mental power, it seems that the strength of the Air Zhankong Commander is quite outstanding!"

"Strong? Ha!"

Zhankong seemed to be mocking himself, or perhaps he had some unclear meaning.

"If I were considered strong, I wouldn't be here."

Then, Li Yu seemed to have thought of something and asked strangely:
"Boss Zhankong, are there any strong people in this world who possess the ninth level of spiritual power?"

The difficulty of the first realm is already so high. Li Yu really can't imagine what a master of the ninth realm is like. Even if the physical body dies, the soul can still exist independently.

In response to this, Zhan Kong spread his hands and said in a very humble tone,
"do not know."

"do not know?"

Zhankong: "What do you think I am? I don't know everything."

Li Yu shrank his head angrily: That’s what I thought.

At this time, the old butler appeared in time, holding a large wooden box steadily in his hands. The simple decoration of the wooden box and the magical aura that came to the face made people subconsciously confirm that it was a treasure at the first sight.

When the wooden box was opened, Zhan Kong's exclamation made Li Yu confirm this.

"Fuck, five-piece suit!"

What does a five-piece set mean?
Can it summon a dragon? That should be the Dragon Ball!

"You kid, it's like magic stones have fallen from the sky!"

Zhan Kong said a proverb that was quite characteristic of the magic world, and then began to popularize the concept of high-end luxury goods in the magic world to Li Yu.
"The Concentration Set is usually a three-piece set, which is composed of three magic condensation device parts. Of course, there are also four-piece sets, five-piece sets, and even six-piece sets, which are top-level sets."

"The five-piece Concentration Set should be considered the best among the Concentration Sets of the same level."

"This amplification effect is estimated to be able to push your mental power level up by about half a small realm."

"As for the value..."

"In short, it is difficult for ordinary high-level mages to bear."

Shi Liang said quite easily:
"I think that with the help of the Concentration Set, Li Yu should be able to control his lightning magic more easily, and it will also be easier to hide his cultivation."

The release of magic is largely related to the strength of mental power. The stronger the mental power, the stronger the control over magic power and magic, and the less likely it is to go out of control. Therefore, for an elemental disaster victim like Li Yu, the improvement of mental power is definitely beneficial and has no harm.

Zhan Kong nodded and basically agreed with this statement, and said to Li Yu:

"You owe Shi Liang a big favor!"

Everyone knows that improving mental power can improve control over magic, but any item that can improve mental power is extremely precious. So what if you know the method? Do you have money?
It is obvious that Li Yu and Zhan Kong are two poor guys, but they are lucky enough to meet the rich man Shi Liang!
