Chapter 172 Talisman Treasure
As he spoke, Byron also discovered that Isolde's expression remained motionless, and the voice in her mouth stiffened as well.
But the next second, Byron adjusted himself and intended to continue appealing to her emotions and reasoning, when Isolde slowly spoke up.
"Alright, Byron, don't take out these little tricks of yours to show off; they're too low-level."
"However, rest assured, no matter what, you are still my student. The price will definitely be higher than what those strange wizards outside offer; consider it as funding for you."
"But let me remind you, there is a limit to this that you need to grasp yourself."
Hearing Isolde's words, the joy on Byron's Face subsided, and he nodded with a solemn expression.
However, the next second, Byron thick-facedly said: "Mentor, can I not take magic stones, and exchange the magic stones for physical items instead?"
Hearing this, Isolde immediately understood Byron's meaning. After giving him an expression that was a smile yet not a smile, she still nodded and agreed.
Seeing this, Byron suppressed the excitement in his heart and spoke out the things he had thought of long ago.
The first thing he brought up, and also the most important one, was a large-capacity spatial bag.
He had long wanted to replace the small spatial bag he bought, which only had a volume of one cubic meter.
Especially in the Gloom Marrow Crystal Nest minor plane, he had fully experienced the disadvantages of a small spatial bag.
The most intuitive manifestation was that the harvest you obtained through hard work could ultimately not be taken away because the spatial bag's volume was too small, forcing you to abandon it with an aching heart.
For Byron, this was undoubtedly like cutting his own flesh.
Therefore, after returning to the academy, Byron wanted to replace it with a larger spatial bag.
But unfortunately, the spatial bags sold on the market only came in three specifications.
They were spatial bags of one cubic meter, three cubic meters, and five cubic meters, respectively.
If he wanted a spatial bag with a larger volume, it wasn't something that could be easily bought in stores anymore; he would need to find another way.
Precisely because of this reason, coupled with the fact that he had been staying in the academy and there was no urgent need to replace it, it had been dragged out until now.
But now he was about to head to the Otherworld for harvesting, and if he still carried such a small-volume spatial bag, it would simply be better not to go at all.
Otherwise, risking his life to go over and harvest resources, only to find that after snatching the resources, he couldn't bring them back—
then snatching them and not snatching them would make absolutely no difference.
Why even go then? To experience the thrill of walking on the edge of life and death?
That would just be pure madness.
Hearing Byron's request, Isolde pondered slightly and spoke up.
"Byron, what size spatial bag do you need? I need to check to see if I still have any. After all, I haven't used such inconvenient things as spatial bags in a long time."
Hearing this, Byron was filled with envy. What did she mean by not using inconvenient things like spatial bags in a long time? This was clearly naked showing off.
However, after feeling envious, Byron shamelessly asked: "Mentor, may I ask, among those spatial bags you don't use, how large is the biggest one?"
Isolde recalled for a moment and slowly replied: "I have several spatial bags; the largest one should be over a hundred cubic meters."
"I haven't used it in a long time, so I don't remember clearly either, but since you said the bigger the better, let's just directly choose the largest one."
"Since you're heading to the Otherworld anyway, if you don't have a larger spatial bag, you'll definitely regret it."
Byron nodded in deep agreement and agreed to Isolde's proposal without any hesitation.
Isolde: "Do you have any other requests? Spit them all out in one breath."
Byron nodded and stated his required items one by one.
"Mentor, I also need some things capable of unleashing massive destructive power, even if they are disposable. I also need various supporting potions and Materials, and the more of these three categories of items, the better."
"If Mentor happens to have more detailed information about that Otherworld in your hands, that would be even better."
Hearing Byron's request, Isolde took a deep look at him, slowly let out a breath, and said.
"Byron, I asked you to make requests, not to make a wish into thin air."
Hearing this, Byron scratched his head with an embarrassed smile and did not directly answer Isolde's words.
After all, when he brought up these demands, he was just holding the mindset of beating the tree with a pole whether there were dates or not; if she agreed, that would be best, and if she didn't, it was fine—he would just scale them down a bit.
As for Face, how much was that worth? It wasn't as real as actually getting items into his hands.
Isolde pondered slightly for a moment before saying: "Byron, I can give you three things capable of unleashing the power of offensive Spells cast by an Official Wizard."
Hearing this, Byron's eyes instantly lit up.
He hadn't expected that he actually managed to knock down a few dates.
Byron subconsciously asked: "Mentor, are these three items permanent, or disposable?"
As soon as these words were spoken, even Isolde couldn't help but glare at Byron.
"With just a single potion recipe of yours, you want permanent ones, and three of them at that? You really think too highly of your recipe."
"All three are disposable; take it or leave it."
"Take it, take it! Disposable is already very good, Mentor. I'm satisfied; I was just joking earlier."
Fearing that Isolde would go back on her word, Byron hurriedly waved his hands and agreed.
Seeing Byron like this, Isolde's expression improved slightly.
At this time, Byron spoke up once more, asking cautiously: "Mentor, I wonder what those three items are? Can I know in advance?"
Isolde didn't refuse this, nodding slightly. With a casual wave of her slender, tender, white jade-like fingers in the air, three items appeared out of thin air in mid-air.
Except for slight differences in color, those three items were mostly similar.
They were all rectangular sheets of paper that looked thin enough to be punctured with a single poke, yet gave a feeling of extreme resilience, with crooked runes inscribed on them.
Upon seeing these three things, an extremely absurd feeling welled up from the bottom of Byron's heart.
But Byron didn't speak; he suppressed the absurdity in his heart, raised his head to look at Isolde, and waited for her to speak.
Looking at these three pieces of paper, a trace of memory also surfaced in Isolde's eyes as she slowly spoke.
"These three items were something I obtained by sheer Opportunity back then, but I never had the chance to use them. Now I'm just letting you take advantage of them."
"According to the person who sold this to me, these things are called Talisman Treasures, formed by Cultivators of the Golden Core Realm in their world by imprinting their Spells onto talisman paper."
"You probably don't know what Golden Core Cultivators and Spells are; I'll briefly explain a thing or two so you'll understand."
But at this moment, upon hearing Isolde's words, monstrous waves directly churned inside Byron's heart.
He hadn't expected that it was just as he had guessed earlier—this thing was, holy shit, genuinely a Talisman Treasure, a Talisman Treasure used by immortal Cultivators!!!
But thinking about it, it made sense. After all, this place was known as the Endless Worlds, where all kinds of civilizations existed. What would be so strange about having one more immortal cultivation civilization...
Well, Byron still couldn't accept this news for a moment.
