Chapter 204: Bestowing a Surname
[Received high-grade Sacred Tool, wooden Sacred Medicine Refining Utensil x1]
[Wooden Sacred Medicine Refining Utensil: Special alchemy magical power. The success rate of an alchemy potion is increased by 20%.
It was a top-grade sacred alchemy utensil! Romo could not help being stunned. He had originally wanted a more powerful offensive magical weapon, but he did not expect a non-combat magical treasure to appear.
However, he was not disappointed. From another perspective, the alchemy utensil was more valuable than a combat magical weapon!
Alchemy utensils were indispensable tools for alchemists. It was just like how a kitchen utensil was to a chef. No matter how great a chef was, without a kitchen utensil, he would not be able to make delicious dishes.
No matter how skilled an alchemist was in alchemy, without a good alchemy utensil, it would be difficult for him to refine a good pill! In the magical power world, alchemists were already a rare profession. While an alchemy utensil was a scarce magical tool, a good alchemy utensil was even more rare!
Normally speaking, the price of an alchemy utensil was several times that of other magical treasures of the same grade!
There were not many high-grade sacred alchemy utensils for refining medicine in the entire magical power world. Even a first-rate sacred alchemy temple might not have them!
Moreover, this alchemy utensil produced by the System, in addition to having the effects of ordinary alchemy utensils, also had the special effect of increasing the success rate by 20%!
Although he did not need this alchemy utensil for the time being, the Nicholas family clan already had a descendant with the talent for alchemy—Ron. Romo’s plan to nurture him was in progress, and it could be said that it was the right time to obtain this alchemy utensil!
Romo had originally planned to let Ron buy an ordinary medicine refining utensil for practice first. He would buy a better one from the System Shop later on when he had more Faith Points. However, as his budget was limited, he planned to buy at most a high-grade medicine refining utensil but now he had obtained a high-grade sacred-tier medicine refining utensil directly, it was equivalent to saving a lot of Faith Points!!
“Not bad, not bad!” Romo was in a great mood. Then, he used the Special-Grade Experience Talisman. Although the effect was not great, his level had increased a little.
As for the other tools, he stored them in his inventory first. Then, Romo summoned the System and opened the family genealogy. He saw one more name added to the 17th generation descendants: Dick.
However, since he had already acknowledged his ancestral roots, the name naturally had to be changed. Romo thought for a moment, then opened Dick’s information page and changed his name.
Since he was the 17th generation and the same generation as Ron, he should have the family name.
From now on, Dick’s name would be changed to Dick Nicholas!
He would visit in a dream to inform of the name change. “Name: Dick Nicholas.”
[Gender: Male]
[Age: 28 years old]
[Identity: 17th generation descendant]
[Level: Great Mage. Overall Talent: Superior]
[Special Talent: Mid-tier weapon refinement talent]
[Luck Level: High Intermediate.]
Romo’s eyes lit up when he saw the Special Talent section on Dick’s attributes page.
Although Romo had long known that Dick was a disciple of the Spirit Ribbon Academy and definitely had a talent for weapon refinement, he was still pleasantly surprised to see the System’s certified display.
Currently, the Nicholas family clan had descendants with both alchemy and weapon refinement talents. The nurturing of alchemists and weapon refiners, the two secondary professions, had been arranged!
Time quickly passed and night came. Dick returned to his bedroom and lay in bed, feeling a little dazed.
The Nicholas family held a grand banquet just to celebrate his return.
He had finally experienced the passion of the Nicholas family, the sincerity and warmth of family.
It was strange. It was clearly his first day here, but he did not feel too much discomfort. Moreover, the only slight discomfort he had was disappearing rapidly. The people in the house made him feel inexplicably at ease.
Unknowingly, Dick had gradually fallen asleep. In his daze, Dick gradually felt that something was wrong. He suddenly woke up and looked up, only to find himself in an unfamiliar and strange place!
His surroundings were like a sacred scene. He was on a tall mountain, and there was a hall in front of him. In the hall, there was a dignified saint with white hair and beard looking at him solemnly.
When he saw the person, Dick was shocked, but then he was stunned because he realized that the other party looked a little familiar…
He quickly reacted. “Isn’t this the person I saw earlier in the ancestor portrait of the Nicholas family?!”
Romo looked at the shocked and confused Dick and smiled. “You don’t have to be afraid. I’m the ancestor of the Nicholas family. You are currently in a dream.”
“In a dream?!” Dick’s heart skipped a beat and he immediately recalled something Ron had told him previously.
“Ah, the Old Ancestor of the family clan has actually visited me in my dream! This is actually not a joke. This is real!”
Romo smiled and said, “I know you have many questions, but it’s okay. We have a lot of time. Come, sit down and talk.”
As he spoke, Romo waved his right hand, and a chair appeared out of thin air in front of him. There were even some refreshments on the table.
For someone who had experienced such a dream for the first time, his understanding of the situation would be a little blurry. Dick did not dig into the details to find out if this was true or false. Instead, he followed Romo’s words unconsciously and walked into the hall.
Romo looked at Dick and said slowly, “I’m very pleased to see you return to the Nicholas family. I’ve visited you in your dream this time to let you know some of the secrets of the Nicholas family clan, and also to give you some greeting gifts.”
Time passed little by little, and the night gradually became dark. Romo told Dick some of the secrets of the Nicholas family clan and then started to teach him the Shen Luo All-Encompassing Technique.
Before imparting the cultivation technique, Romo had also used the Talent Strengthening Talisman he had just obtained to increase Dick’s magical power talent to its peak.
In addition, he had also spent 10,000 Faith Points in the System Shop to buy a pill that could treat the stubborn old injuries in Dick’s body and also heal his crippled arm. He fed it directly to the sleeping Dick.
In the end, he gave Dick another Hundredfold Cultivation Speed Talisman.
When the sky had already lit up, the morning sun shone through the window and into the house.
On the bed, Dick suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
Dick also looked around, his eyes still a little dazed. He subconsciously raised his hand to rub his forehead, and his thoughts became clearer.
Suddenly, Dick’s hand froze. He opened his eyes wide and placed the hand that was massaging his forehead in front of his eyes. He looked at it in disbelief.
This was his left hand. His left arm, which had clearly been crippled for five years, had regained its senses!
No! It was not as simple as a restoration of senses! Dick clenched his right fist hard and raised his left hand in front of his eyes. He clenched them together and sense that the feeling was the same. He had completely recovered!
