Just call me Thor - Chapter 396

Chapter 396: Wisdom Flame
After carrying the Heart of Life, Rolling’s body started to sweat profusely.

Soon, 600mL of sweat was collected, and Rolling’s temperature finally went down.

Looking at the sweat in front of him, Mike had a flash of inspiration.

He decided to name this source of life [Saline Solution].

“Take it to the Mystic Market, it should fetch a decent price.”

This thing was sweet with a hint of stink; Mike himself wouldn’t use it.

With that in mind, Mike began to calculate his gains from the 30th floor.

In terms of materials, Mike had gained:

Sun Eater Bow – SS-level equipment, Fool promised to help Mike upgrade it to SSS-level.

Heart of Life.

Wilderness Wolf Pancake – The level 994 werewolf expert was smashed into a pancake by Maxen, his whole body was a treasure, Mike hadn’t figured out how to use it yet.

Nature Elf Envoy – Captive, level 989, poor, nothing much to squeeze out.

Although the Nature Elf Envoy was nominally Fool’s maid, both sides knew that if Mike needed the Nature Elf Envoy to fight, she had no right to refuse.

“That’s about it.”

Mike counted on his fingers, there was also the personal reward for conquering with an SSSS rating.

That would probably have to wait until tomorrow.

Mike casually opened his attribute panel. In the battles on the 30th floor, he had gained quite a bit of experience:

ID: Thor

Talent: Eye of Truth (SSS-level)

Level: 369

Class: Thunderlord Magus (Lightning, Fire, Shadow) SSS-level

Second Class: Tidewalker Magus (Wind, Nature, Water) SSS-level

HP: 16,813,800/16,813,800

MP: 38,387,900/38,387,900

Strength: 136,461 (+163,916)

Intelligence: 236,845 (+426,852)

Spirit: 226,863 (+356,468)

Agility: 100,616 (+121,664)

Constitution: 135,468 (+164,568)

Luck: 17

Equipment: Force of Nature (SSS-level), etc.

Skills: Steal Fire, All Things Grow, etc.

As Mike’s level increased, the attributes of Force of Nature also increased significantly.

Even without considering the additional attributes, Mike’s current base attributes had all exceeded 100,000.

He was only level 369 now, still a long way from level 1000, but his potential for strength growth was huge.

Moreover, the higher the level, the greater the increase in each attribute.

Previously in the Wolf’s Den, the [Endless Infernal Fire] on Mike was taken out by Apollo.

Mike had only endured the Endless Infernal Fire for two days and gained 1 million HP and 15% fire elemental damage immunity.

“Right, the Endless Infernal Fire is gone, let’s borrow some fire from the bald man again!”

Thinking of this, Mike immediately returned to the Wolf’s Den.

…

In the Wolf’s Den,

Maxen was lying on the table resting when Thor suddenly appeared beside him.

“Come on, let’s go.”

Mike pulled Maxen up and went straight to find the bald man without saying a word.

In a remote, dilapidated corner of the Core City of Truth, Mike found the bald man from before.

The bald man looked at Maxen, slightly surprised,

“This gentleman looks extraordinary.”

The people who appeared with Thor were all more talented than the last.

Mike didn’t beat around the bush and introduced,

“His name is Maxen, he’s the godson of Morpheus and Ares.”

“No wonder, you can call me Surtr.”

The bald man looked at Thor, his expression even more respectful,

“What can I do for you?”

“Borrow some fire.”

Mike smiled sheepishly, “Well, the Endless Infernal Fire is gone.”

[Steal Fire success rate: 0.21%]

Now, Mike’s success rate for stealing fire from Surtr had increased by 0.06%.

The most important thing was that because of the bug, Steal Fire was cost-free!

At least, it didn’t cost any gold coins.

“Borrowing fire is fine.”

Surtr nodded and asked sincerely,

“But will you return it?”

Mike was a little embarrassed, “That’s still impossible, why don’t you name a price?”

The reason why Mike wanted to borrow fire from Surtr was that every successful Steal Fire would give him super high attributes!

Last time, he gained 50,000 Constitution points and 1 million HP from the Endless Infernal Fire.

He made a killing.

Having tasted the sweetness, Mike naturally wouldn’t give up this opportunity.

“Alright.”

Surtr thought for a moment and offered his condition,

“How about you help me clean up the house and chat with me? What do you think?”

Mike immediately refused and said sincerely, “Can we get someone else? My time is limited, I can’t waste it on such things.”

Surtr was easy to talk to, “Sure.”

It just so happened that Ace walked over at this time. Mike’s gaze lingered between Ace and Maxen for a moment, and finally, he gave up on Maxen and chose Ace.

“Why should I help this bald guy clean his room? It’s a complete waste of my time.”

Ace snorted coldly, even if Thor got down on his knees and begged him today, he wouldn’t do it!

Mike said through gritted teeth,

“I’ll pay 600!”

“Are you insulting me?”

Ace stretched out his hand, spreading his five fingers,

“At least 50,000!”

Mike asked tentatively,

“Copper coins?”

Ace rolled his eyes,

“I’m talking about Lord merits!”

“So there’s no room for negotiation?”

50,000 Lord merits, Mike would never pay that!

Let alone 50,000, even 500 was impossible!

Mike took out a small bottle,

“I have 100ml of source of life here, do you want it?”

Source of life?

Maxen exclaimed,

“Where did you get the source of life again?”

This thing was completely ineffective for people at their level.

However, for those below Chief who were suffering from old injuries, the source of life was a priceless treasure.

The source of life that Mike had taken out before had allowed many former experts to rise again, and one of them even became a Lord!

According to the deal Mike had made with Maxen before, 20,000 gold coins per drop.

100ml, that was 2,000 drops.

This small bottle was worth 400 Lord merits!

Its actual value was even higher!

Ace sneered, “Do you think I need healing?”

For Ace, healing items were the most useless things.

If you have the ability, just slash him dead!

With [Near-Death Power Up], he could recover quickly, and his strength would become even stronger.

“You really don’t need it.”

Mike nodded and asked back,

“Are you sure your former subordinates, students, and apprentices don’t need it?”

2,000 drops were enough to heal more than a dozen Chief-level experts and restore them to their former strength.

Ace fell into a brief silence, then continued to talk tough, “Those are old guys, what do they have to do with me?”

After saying that, Ace stepped forward and snatched the source of life from Mike’s hand.

He snorted coldly and turned to enter Surtr’s room.

“I’m in a good mood today, and I ate too much just now, so I’ll just do some housework to exercise.”

Mike shook his head with a smile and took out five more bottles of source of life,

“This version of the source of life, I call it [Saline Solution], it’s a bit salty, it can save your life and replenish sodium, two birds with one stone.”

Maxen looked at the five bottles of 100ml source of life, rubbing his hands together.

He wanted to buy them, but he had no money!

Mike rolled his eyes,

“Let’s stick to the old rules. If I remember correctly, there are still quite a few people in that plan who haven’t been allocated the source of life.”

Maxen nodded,

“Yes, the queue has exceeded ten million.”

The source of life that Mike took out was nothing compared to the huge population of the human race.

500ml, 10,000 drops of source of life, if used to treat Chiefs, it would only be enough for 100 people at most.

Moreover, there were many Chiefs who needed more than 100 drops of source of life due to their severe injuries.

Mike stuffed the bottles to Maxen and instructed,

“From now on, there will be 500ml of source of life delivered every day, I’ll have Bilbo deliver it to you. If we can’t reach you, we’ll hand it over to the Mystic Market.”

Maxen nodded repeatedly, “No problem!”

At the price they had negotiated before, this batch of source of life was basically given away for free.

Surtr said with emotion,

“Thor, you are too kind.”

“Alright, enough with the flattery.”

Mike didn’t continue with the pleasantries. After making arrangements with Surtr, he began to borrow fire.

This time, Mike was certain that Surtr didn’t have the [Endless Infernal Fire] on him and wouldn’t give him the entire debuff again.

After 642 attempts at stealing fire, costing 0 gold coins, Mike finally succeeded.

“Steal Fire successful!”

“Obtained fire elemental state [Wisdom Flame], the next comprehended skill has no consumption for yourself, comprehended skills come with fire attribute, duration: 300 days”

“[Fire Thief] effect activated, Intelligence +40,000.”

Looking at the new prompt that popped up, Mike only had one feeling:

Awesome!

He didn’t spend a single penny, stole the [Wisdom Lotus Flame], and even increased his attribute.

It was too worth it!

Of course, this bug also had a limitation.

The greater the difference in strength between the two, the more attributes Mike gained.

However, Mike’s strength would continue to grow, and the gap between them would become smaller and smaller.

The last time he successfully stole fire, Mike gained 50,000 Constitution points.

This time it was only 40,000, but fortunately, it was Intelligence, which was still a big improvement for Mike.

Surtr said sincerely,

“Thor, congratulations.”

Mike looked at the Surtr, wanting to say something but hesitating.

Surtr was a little puzzled, “Is something bothering you?”

Mike nodded, “I hope you can exercise regularly and become stronger and stronger!”

The stronger Surtr was, the more attributes Mike would gain.

Hearing Thor’s words, Surtr shook his head and smiled wryly.

He was now level 989, and anyone above level 990 had to enter the Temple of Truth.

In other words, Surtr was already among the strongest in the Core City of Truth.

Any stronger, and he wouldn’t be able to stay in the Core City of Truth.

After bidding farewell to Thor and Maxen, Surtr returned to his bedroom and began to inspect Ace’s cleaning job.

Having successfully borrowed fire and given the source of life to Maxen, Mike finally had some free time.

Normally, he would go to the Wolf’s Den for a casual drink and a bite to eat.

Today was different.

Today, Thor is treating, and even eating a hamburger would cost him his own money.

Forget it, he wouldn’t eat today!

With a flash of lightning, Mike disappeared from where he stood and returned to Earth.
