Chapter 18 Acquired Friendly

The circus spends every day in a harmonious atmosphere.

Happy years always pass quickly.

In the five months since leaving Piek Fortress, the circus has traveled around the northern area of ​​Rossac.

As long as they encounter a stronghold, they will stay for 2 to 6 days.

Whether it is a small village with a population of less than a hundred households, or a town with hundreds or thousands of households, the circus will perform.

The income from each performance is less, but the total number of performances is much more than before.

Xia Zuo also specifically suggested to Audrey to increase the number of spectators for the fire-breathing performance to increase the efficiency of gaining experience.

The overall harvest is pretty good.

[Identity level]

Apprentice level→entry level→skilled level fire-breathing performer

At first glance, you won't feel anything special at all, and you will just think of it as an ordinary pharmacy owner.

Xia Zuo's eyes flashed as he stared at his hands and murmured to himself.

Thales crossed his arms and said, "Can you spit out a 1-meter-long flame now?"

It seems that when you are with someone with high perception, it is really easy for them to catch you.

The pharmacy owner leaned on the counter and stared at the thinking boy with a smile.

All common supplies can be purchased in towns and villages. However, the powerful fire-breathing agent is only sold in Rosak City.

"It's really not easy. How's your fire-breathing level? I see you've been standing here for a while. Are you trying to figure out a new fire-breathing agent?"

Xia Zuo nodded and followed the other party to the backyard.

Thales raised his chin towards the south:

"A few months ago, Starry Night Academy discovered that there was a major bias in the past methods of testing element affinities.

【Character Name】Tales Meso

[Identity] The owner of Starry Night Pharmacy in Rosak City,???

Xia Zuo's pupils suddenly shrank.

You can go to Starry Night Academy within half a year...much earlier than expected.

"Little one, are you a member of Audrey's Circus? I remember you coming here."

…

However, Thales' next words really made him fall into complete shock and surprise.

He skillfully prepared a bottle of mixed fire-breathing potion with 3 drops of fire solvent, and easily spit out a flame more than 3 meters long.

He wanted to collect inspiration from more professional people, and the middle-aged man running the pharmacy in front of him happened to be such a person.

He paused for a long time in front of the counter of potent potions and protective potions, silently calculating the mixing ratio between the two.

Xia Zuo stretched out his hand and shook it lightly, then threw out the Detection Technique.

Xia Zuo thought that his extraordinary recovery ability had been discovered again, and his body shivered uncontrollably.

[Fire Resistance] 1.5%

Isn't this what Thales said, the ability to resist energy damage?

Isn't this the acquired fire affinity?

"It turns out... I already have some kind of affinity, although it's just an acquired affinity acquired through hard training."

"You also have to thank the resident mage of Piek Castle. If he hadn't mentioned you to me, I probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to find you. But having said that, even if I didn't tell you this, you can still do it within half a year.

Head to Starry Night Academy."

Xia Zuo looked at each other unconsciously, attracted by the deep eyes as silent as an ancient well.

[Identity bonus] Level 3 fire resistance, fire resistance increased by 1.5%.

But when you upgrade from level 6 to level 8, each upgrade gives you 2 free attribute points.

When no fire solvent is added, the starting point of the flame is at least 20 cm away.

Thales nodded slowly under the expectant gaze of the other party:

Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment. If the other party hadn't reminded him, he might never have paid attention to this detail.

After several attempts, Thales finally believed what Xia Zuo said.

He prepared a bottle of fire-breathing potion without adding the fire solvent, and used the two different potions alternately to breath fire.

Xia Zuo's eyes swayed, and he took a few deep breaths to calm down the excitement in his heart.

During the 5 minutes of performing on stage, maintain a strong flame from beginning to end, and occasionally use a stronger fireball to push the show to a climax.

"Can you go to the backyard and show it? There are ready-made tools there. This is the first time I have seen someone who has not practiced breathing techniques can spit 3 meters of flames, not to mention you don't seem to be an adult yet."

It just brings an end to the reincarnation performance that lasted for nearly half a year.

Xia Zuo looked at the pharmacy owner, his eyes suddenly froze.

I barely managed to level up by 3 levels in 5 months. On average, I gained about 200 experience points every month.

[Promotion conditions]

The city of Rosak remains prosperous.

[????] The perception of surrounding targets is reduced by 7 points, and the own charm is reduced by 7 points. The effect lasts until the initiative ends.

This can not only increase the number of experiences per second, but also increase audience satisfaction, achieving a small leap in experience efficiency.

Thales seemed to have anticipated the other party's reaction, and said with a faint smile on his face:

"Tell me about your troubles. Maybe I can help. This is considered a pre-sales consultation service, and there is no extra charge."

“Previous tests only looked at innate affinity and never involved acquired affinity.

"But your skin is very moist and smooth, and you can't see any traces left by the high temperature."

Thales walked slowly in the backyard and continued as if answering questions to himself:

In the presence of at least 40 unfamiliar spectators, if you continuously spit out strong flames for more than 10 seconds, and obtain an average audience satisfaction of more than 85% three times in a row, you can be promoted to an expert fire-breathing performer.

Xia Zuo walked into the Starry Night Pharmacy with a thoughtful look on his face. His eyes swept across the various potent flammable potions, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Thales was afraid that Xia Zuo wouldn't understand the meaning of the nouns, so he explained them one by one.

Why does it feel a little different from the previous image?

The next upgrade will be in 4 months. The speed of experience acquisition can no longer keep up with the upgrade requirements.

"Of course. In fact, I can stably spit out 2-meter-long flames."

Achieving this goal is not difficult.

"Let me formally meet you. I am Thales Meso. The owner of this Starry Night Pharmacy. You can call me Thales."

Thales walked in a circle around the slightly dull Xia Zuo, and finally stood in front of him and said in a calm tone:

【Character Specialties】???

[Character skills]

The key to all this lies in the ingredients of the fire-breathing agent.

Xia Zuo shifted his gaze to the display cabinet in front of him, "I want to prepare a more powerful fire-breathing agent, one that has both fire-breathing power and low toxicity."

"Thank you, Thales."
