Moreover, a mere twenty-five thousand Magic Stones simply couldn't buy any Second Rank witchcraft.
The market price for Second Rank Lower Magic in Darren's Commission generally starts at eighty thousand, and at the very minimum, it would still cost fifty thousand Magic Stones.
And often, they're just not available on the market.
After all, in this world, the primary way to acquire High Rank witchcraft is through exchange within a School.
The Spirit Fog is a witchcraft meant for continuous use, designed to optimize long-term consumption.
Thus, maintaining its existence doesn't require much Magic Power.
But that doesn't mean its consumption will be low during casting.
At the very least, for Colin, who is currently a First Rank Advanced Wizard, it isn't a small amount.
Due to practicing witchcraft all morning, Colin's Magic Power is not at a full state.
At this moment, after casting Spirit Fog, his complexion unavoidably paled, and a sense of emptiness immediately emanated from the Magic Sea in his chest.
'Probably only about ten percent of Magic Power left…'
Colin slightly paused in his step, assessed the situation, then quickly turned around, retrieved his Demon Release Ring, and began recovering his Magic Power sitting behind the experiment table.
Out of caution, he habitually kept at least half of his body's Magic Power in reserve.
Half an hour later, with the aid of Magic Stones, Magic Power had fully replenished within him.
With a thought from Colin, he cast Hayden's Pseudo Ability.
Almost half of the Magic Power in front of his chest vanished instantly, like water bursting through a gate.
It seems that, with the Magic Power of a First Rank Advanced Wizard like him, he must be at his fullest Magic Power state to cast these two pieces of witchcraft simultaneously.
That was the case for him; for other Wizards, being able to cast one of the spells would be considered quite good.
After all, the characteristic of the Holy Ring Meditation Method is to increase the total amount of Magic Power, and the Golden Paper Limit Breaking witchcraft was custom-made for Colin, making it smoother for him to use and relatively reducing Magic Power consumption.
Colin sat quietly on an iron stool, feeling carefully.
Whether it was Spirit Fog or Hayden's Pseudo Ability, neither spell caused any significant commotion when cast.
After casting Spirit Fog, a nearly imperceptible white brilliance flickered over him, which quickly converged and vanished into his body.
Indicating the successful enhancement from Spirit Fog.
Hayden's Pseudo Ability was much the same, only the light of energy pulled was darker.
But after the casting, at least to the naked eye of a First Rank Knight, he appeared no different on the surface than before.
Colin seriously felt for a while, and his body did not experience any significant discomfort.
His spiritual power usage remained smooth, likewise with his Magic Power.
After considering, he raised his arm and activated his Supersensitive Vision.
Determining the specific level of a wizard is not an easy task.
At least it cannot be accurately determined simply by eyesight or sensing the aura.
Supersensitive Vision can help to some extent, but not significantly.
At least at this moment Colin could only see the human and knowledge brilliance on his body's surface had dimmed.
Indeed, it had become similar to when he was an Advanced Apprentice.
Theoretically, the higher a Wizard's level, the stronger the Spiritual Light on their body's surface would be.
Thus, it can serve as a partial basis for judging a Wizard's Level.
However, the brilliance of humanity and knowledge on the body's surface changes with the Wizard's specific condition, so it is neither accurate nor easily faked.
Typically, the witchcraft used specifically to distinguish a Wizard's Level falls into two types: one that judges based on the quality of spirit, and another based on the level of Magic Power.
Unfortunately, Colin had not learned either type of these witchcraft.
So for now, he could not test the specific effects of these two pieces of Disguise Magic after Limit Breaking.
However, Colin believed in the Golden Paper; theoretically, these two Second Rank Lower Magic, which had undergone Golden Paper Limit Breaking, should at least be able to deceive Wizards below Third Rank.
Witchcraft after Golden Paper Limit Breaking, usually are of the highest quality in their respective classes.
But whether it could deceive Wizards of Third Rank and above remains unknown.
Colin thought for a moment, then stood up and quickly left the True Knowledge Society.
Half an hour later, the disguised Colin arrived outside a large bookstore on Copper Rose Street.
The bookstore behind this establishment was affiliated with the Yista School, making it one of the most upscale bookshops on Copper Rose Street.
In line with its status, apart from the rich knowledge it offered for sale, it also had some special features, such as the constant monitoring Witch Array set up at the entrance.
According to previous information, as soon as any Wizard of First Rank or above entered, the monitoring witchcraft would alert, and the shopkeeper would then come out to receive the guest personally.
It was said that the monitoring Witch Array was probably not very powerful.
But as it happened, Colin had come to sell witchcraft and took the opportunity to simply test the newly Limit Breaking Disguise Magic.
It was better than nothing.
Colin let out a breath quietly, no longer hesitant, and entered the bookstore.
Though it was a casual decision, he had still made thorough preparations.
Colin had deliberately upgraded the Wizard Robe he wore while in disguise, making it look slightly higher in class.
It was the kind that a somewhat wealthy Advanced Wizard Apprentice might wear, or a down-and-out First Rank Basic Level Wandering Wizard might also wear.
So as to avoid it seeming odd were he detected as a First Rank Wizard later on.
Entering the doorway went smoothly, and his First Rank Advanced Wizard's ability allowed him to sense the subtle fluctuations emitted by the monitoring Witch Array at the entrance.
Without changing his expression, Colin continued to walk forward.
The layout of wizard world bookstores was very similar to that of jewelry stores in his previous life, the difference being that the tempered glass was replaced by Magic Shields.
At this moment, about a dozen Wizards were browsing and selecting items; most of them were Wandering Wizards, with a small half being School Wizards.
Colin glanced with the corner of his eye at the shopkeeper in a white robe behind the counter not far away.
The shopkeeper was sitting bored behind the counter, holding a book and reading it.
Seeing the shopkeeper looking like that, Colin slightly relaxed inside.
Then, he found it a little funny that he had been overly anxious.
Such a result was only to be expected.
If the two Limit Breaking Disguise Magic spells could not even fool a bookstore's monitoring Witch Array, then what good were they?
Shaking his head, Colin strode towards the shopkeeper, and half an hour later, sold the twice Limit Breaking inferior Acid Liquid Splash for 14,500 Magic Stones.
Upon exiting the bookstore, the sky was still bright.
But the winter sky always seemed a bit more dim than in other seasons.
Hisss!
Just as Colin was about to divert his gaze, a piercing bright light suddenly appeared from the corner of his eye.
He instinctively turned his head to look.
Whoosh!
It was from the direction of the southern district of the city far away, where a fiery bright light unexpectedly appeared, rapidly expanding into a huge sphere of light within mere moments, and then, with a vivid red trail, shot up into the sky!
The air vibrated, the mighty presence of the flame light was thrilling, and the passersby around him immediately let out a series of astonished cries.
But the next moment, several figures appeared, soaring into the sky along with the blaze.
Each figure's presence was no less than that of the fiery figure.
The group of people quickly disappeared into the clouds, and immediately thunderous, muffled sounds mingled with bright flashes like lightning appeared incessantly.
However, merely moments later, all became quiet again.
Leaving only a light drizzle of localized hail over that region.
"What's going on?"
"Those are at least Third Rank Wizards…"
"I've seen one of them, that's one of the big shots from the Law Enforcement Team!"
The crowd around him started discussing in surprised and uncertain tones, like boiling water bursting from a pot.
Colin's gaze flickered.
...On that first fiery figure, he had sensed a Divine presence.
'Could it be the Scarlet Action has caught a big fish?'
With speculation stirring within him, he steadied his mind and quickly walked towards the True Knowledge Society.
