Chapter 17 I was favored by war Potential breakthrough potion. When Eric took out the potion, Lear recognized it. It was recognized by players in the previous life as the most deceptive magic potion. The effect is very simple. It upgrades one level within thirty minutes, from intermediate level to advanced level, and from advanced level to extraordinary level. It is capped at the extraordinary level at most. The effect is powerful, but the side effects are also extremely terrifying. After the effect of the drug wears off, the user will directly drop twenty levels, which means dropping one class. Using twenty levels to gain half an hour of class advancement is like hurting the enemy by a thousand and losing ten thousand of your own money by a thousand. For players, they would lose one level if they died, but after using potions and surviving, they lost twenty levels instead.
Such a medicine is completely meaningless. In a duel, Eric actually used such a potion and completely disregarded the king's face. What deep hatred did he have? Lear couldn't understand, and he subconsciously glanced at Divine in the audience. The way to obtain the Potential Breakthrough Potion in the game is as a reward from Tivinei's mission. Divine will issue a mission, the reward is an unknown extraordinary item. How could a novice player have ever seen an extraordinary item? Naturally, they flocked to it. After spending all their family wealth to get the reward, they got a bottle of potion instead. If that were the case, it wouldn't be a big deal, but the negative effects of the potion obtained from Divine were shown as unknown, and the negative effects only became apparent after the first player used the potion. The player who used the potion collapsed at that moment. Later, players speculated that Divine made the potion but was unaware of the negative effects and used players as guinea pigs. As for now… Eric became the first guinea pig. She is indeed a bad woman... Lear looked at Eric again, with a hint of pity in his eyes. "Eric! What are you doing?" Feeling the sudden increase in his son's power, Duke Norton was not happy, but rather a little shocked and angry. Any sudden power comes at a price, and that bottle of black potion felt very dangerous to him. Eric ignored the questioning of Duke Norton. Now he only had Lear in his eyes. His red eyes did not look like those of a rational wizard, but more like those of a mad berserker. "Lear! I will never lose to you!" He roared, raised his staff, and condensed the fire storm again. After reaching a high level, the power and scale of the firestorm were magnified several times, and the entire open-air arena felt an extremely scorching atmosphere. The nobles in the VIP seats no longer looked like they were watching a show, but instead looked panicked. King Rosser had a gloomy expression, angry at Eric's reckless behavior. What’s more, the opponent actually wants to use large-scale high-level spells in the arena! A spell of this strength, if released at will, would be enough to cause heavy losses to the Kingdom Arena, especially since Eric had broken through to the high level through a special method. Without the corresponding accumulation, he would not be able to fully control the high-level spells.
The kingdom is surrounded by nobles and many commoners, and one mistake could lead to a disaster. The only ones who could stop Eric at the scene were him and Duke Norton. Just as the king was about to stop Eric, Lear moved in the arena. In full view of everyone, Lear took out the black and purple night rose. Lear had already thrown the staff back into the storage ring. He held the rapier in his hand, and he seemed to have turned back into the "Blade Waltz" he once was! His eyes became deep, and he instantly activated the Aslan Royal Swordsmanship from the Queen! The figure disappeared from the spot in an instant. Eric, who was casting the spell, was startled. Although he was in a state of rage, his basic mage instincts were still there. He quickly cast a magic shield on himself. The magic shield condensed by the strength of a high-level wizard is enough to resist mid-level professionals. But in the next second, the cold darkness easily penetrated the magic shield. It’s the armor-breaking effect of Night Rose! Li Er had already arrived in front of Eric, and the dark rapier pierced directly into the gem of the Song of Fire like a venomous snake. The terrifying piercing force caused cracks to appear on the fiery red gem, and before Eric could react, the huge impact force made his body fly backwards uncontrollably, and the Song of Fire also flew out. The fire storm condensed in the air collapsed directly, turning into flames that dyed the sky red. The scorching waves of fire made the audience below exclaim in surprise. In the crowd, an old man with a white beard stared at Lear in the center of the flames. Even after looking at it again, he could not see how Lear's speed had increased to such a terrifying level. And the power was clearly not right, and Jacqueline recalled the tremendous force he had felt in the blacksmith shop and it only seemed more magical. King Rosser was also staring at Lear intently at this moment. Even he could not ignore the speed just now. As a professional of extraordinary level, he could sense it more deeply than anyone else. Ignoring all the glances directed at him, Lear knew that his actions just now were a little unbelievable. He had not intended to reveal his swordsmanship. It was better to have a hidden trump card than nothing. But Eric had no moral principles, so he had no choice but to give it a fight. But to be honest, he still held back, otherwise he would have killed the other person with just one sword. At this time, Duke Norton had hurriedly run to the fallen Eric. Eric's aura dropped rapidly and soon fell to the level of a beginner wizard. Not only that, Eric also had multiple fractures on his body. Even if he was treated by the Golden Church's worshippers, he would have to stay in bed for at least ten days to half a month. Sensing the changes in Eric's body, Duke Norton was furious. "What on earth did you do to Eric?" A roar made the originally noisy arena quiet. Li Er put away the Night Rose and replied with a smile: "I stopped Eric from casting a high-level spell that he couldn't control and prevented a disaster. What's the problem, Your Excellency the Duke?" Lear's words almost made Duke Norton so angry that he attacked Lear directly. Duke Norton took a deep breath, and with the king present, he could only suppress his emotion temporarily. "Lear, you know that's not the question I'm asking. Why has Eric's magic power level dropped so much?" "Shouldn't the Duke ask Eric about this? What potion did he drink to break through to a higher level? This matter has nothing to do with me." Lear shrugged his shoulders with an innocent expression. Duke Norton gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do. Eric drank the potion in public, and everyone saw it. "Okay, stop arguing!" The king walked down from the VIP stand and glanced at Eric who was held in the arms of Duke Norton.
"Vicente, Lear did nothing wrong in this duel. You should explain why Eric used banned potions and even high-level spells in the duel!" In duels between nobles, the use of any potions that increase strength is prohibited. You can arm yourself to the teeth with equipment, but you cannot use potions. This is the rule. Duke Norton had an ugly expression on his face. If he really knew, he would never have let Eric use it. Falling from a mid-level wizard to a beginner, a potion with such side effects would be meaningless no matter how powerful it was. "I will investigate it thoroughly and make compensation." Duke Norton felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten shit. The king nodded, without further criticism, and looked at Lear, "Lear, you really surprised me today." Lear smiled. He certainly knew what the king was surprised about. He had changed so much. "Did you use some kind of swordsmanship just now?" the king couldn't help but ask. "Yes." Lear nodded. The king was silent for a while. A wizard used sword skills and he had no idea what was going on. "Aren't you a wizard?" the king couldn't help asking. "I have been favored by war," Lear said at once. The king was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Lear meant. "You can think of me as having gained the favor of the Law of War. Now I can not only use spells, but also the power of the Law of War." Lear explained with a smile. The king's eyes widened slightly when he heard this, and even Duke Norton showed an incredible expression. "This is impossible. No one can control two major laws at the same time!" Duke Norton retorted subconsciously, and even let go of Eric's hand in excitement. Eric fell to the ground, unconscious. Lear shrugged and made no attempt to explain. (End of this chapter)
