My Muscle System in the Mage World

Chapter 126: Rock Skin and Incurable Poison?



"Looks like my power set is complete for now."

He had two spells for his defence, two spells for his attack and one spell for his speed.

So Aur now had a completed set of spells.

"Let\'s see." Aur glimpsed at his mental space again where the colourless mana had almost filled the entirety of his mental space by half already however it was still slightly far off from filling half his mental space.

"I am very close to a breakthrough into High Wizard apprentice." Aur nodded his head. "If that happens the strength of all my spell will definetly increase rapidly."

"However, this speed isn\'t nearly enough." his heart grew reckless when he thought about it.

The vision that he had previously witnessed with his talent returned to Aur\'s mind, flooding him with fear.

However, Aur quickly shook his head. "No matter what happens, I will do my best. These distracting thoughts will only slow me down."

Standing up, Aur moved his hand in a strange pattern, immediately illuminating the entire room with light.

"Let\'s first try my new spell." He took a deep breath to calm down, slowly using his mana in the mental space to activate the new spell.

Instantly, the brown pattern within his mental space began to rotate in harmony with the mana, and Aur\'s crimson eyes mirrored the same pattern.

As he initiated the spell, Aur\'s complexion started to change, growing browner by the second. His skin appeared to knit together, but it was a peculiar process, focusing only on the external layer tightening.

At the end of the transformation, Aur could still move, but he couldn\'t alter his facial expression, rendering him like an expressionless, moving statue.

"Let\'s test the effect now," Aur muttered as he took out his sword and slashed at his hand.

Shing!

As the sword met his rock-hard skin, it couldn\'t even create a small wound, deflecting off.

"Hmm?" Aur looked at it with his eyes flickering. "I can\'t tell if it made any difference at all."

Since he was already invulnerable to weapons, Aur actually didn\'t know if the rock skin made any difference.

"Forget it. I will eventually know, but from my estimation, my defence has increased by at least two times," Aur muttered as his eyes returned to normal.

His complexion also returned to normal.

He looked outside with a scrutinising gaze.

There was hustle and bustle in the street, with countless people moving hurriedly.

"Today must be the last day of the caravan," Aur muttered to himself with a thoughtful expression.

The caravan usually only lasted for a week, and it was already the eighth day.

Actually, he had again gone to the carnival, but this time disguised as another person. Silently, he bought all the materials for the Rock Skin magic and returned home as silently as he came.

These trips had lasted for two rounds because Aur had failed to create the spell at least sixteen times.

Thinking of these, a bitter expression morphed his face.

Aur looked back at the side of his bed in the lit room where there were still the charred remains of the herbs and things.

"I only have like forty middle-grade mana crystals now." Aur was running out of resources already.

"Hmm? It should still be able to last me for quite some time."

He thought with, and he immediately started to meditate again, slowly building up his mana.

"I should be able to break through by next month until then…."

Aur\'s crimson eyes glinted with determination as he slowly fell into meditation.

Just like that, a month passed with Aur not caring a single bit about the outside world, enjoying his life in seclusion and shielding himself from external influences.

However, the same couldn\'t be said about outside his dorm as a storm was brewing outside his place that might be engulfed soon.

William lay in bed, his body flashing with a green light from time to time, and four people attended to him, providing constant healing. Despite their efforts, the poison\'s relentless assault caused him to vomit repeatedly.

Just then, a voice cut through the room, prompting the four attendants to pause.

"You can leave now," Noah said with a gentle expression, and the four instantly left while bowing.

After they departed, Noah gazed at William with a sigh. "I have told you countless times to be careful about the outside world, but now…," he trailed off, shaking his head.

"I am sorry, Master," William said with a bitter expression.

"The poison is a strange one; I might not be able to cure it," Noah said with a frown on his face.

Hearing this, William\'s expression turned serious. "Even you?"

"Yes, even me. But there should be something in the treasury that can help you; I\'m sure of it," Noah said with a determined expression.

"For now, stay here."

He casually tapped William on his forehead.

The instant he did, all the internal injuries of William were suppressed in seconds, and the poison was even suppressed as well.

"Luckily, only some droplets of the poison have seeped into his body or else…" Noah thought, his fist tightening.

"Eh, did I recover?" William asked with a confused expression.

Hearing this, Noah chuckled. "No, you didn\'t recover; I just suppressed your wound for now. Stay here; I will come back after a while."

William nodded his head, and Noah immediately left the place.

Seeing this, William\'s blue eyes flickered as he talked to Lily.

"Can you recover my poison, Lily?" William muttered with some hope in his tone.

However, to his surprise, the words he heard shocked him.

"No."

William\'s blue eyes widened to the limits.

"Well, I need some time. I have never seen such a poison before. It wasn\'t in my time when I roamed the outside world, master, so I still need to look into it." Lily\'s voice was tinged with an embarrassed tone.
