Chapter 460: The Huge Mine II
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This was quite an understated hillside. There were no dense trees or bushes growing around the area except for so wild weeds. Even then, the weeds were sparsely scattered all over.
Wizard Darknight led the n toward the hillside. He was not an expert at mine exploration, so he could only use the simplest thod, which was to dig a large pit.
Generally, a truly rich elental crystal stone mine could be discovered at a level close to the ground surface. Therefore, it was quite easy to find as long as its specific location could be identified. All that was left to do was to dig downward.
Instantly, Wizard Darknight cast a spell. Countless Ice Elents lded together into a large knife, and with terrifying power, drove straight into the ground.
“Bang!”
The entire hillside seed to be shaking after Wizard Darknight’s wild display of spells. Finally, a deep pit appeared on the ground. Even without approaching the site, rlin and the others could clearly sense the concentrated elental aura which wafted out from the pit.
“Sure enough, it’s an elental crystal stone mine. Even at such a shallow depth, the contents are already so impressive. I wonder how big is this mine?”
Wizard Darknight was very excited and could not help but shout in rlin’s direction.
“Swish swish!”
rlin stepped forward in a flash and reached the large pit. Sure enough, the pit contained many shimring elental crystal stones, which seed to be Earth-type elental crystal stones.
Most of the elental crystal stones that were buried underground were Earth-type elental crystal stones. However, if one were to proceed deeper, there might also be a large quantity of Fire-type elental crystal stones.
So colder places might contain Ice-type elental crystal stones whereas damp places might yield Water-type elental crystal stones. Only Wind-type and Thunder-type elental crystal stones were quite rare.
Here, the elental crystal stones should mostly consist of Earth-type. The fact that they could be mined at such a shallow depth was a testant to the abundance of this type.
Nevertheless, it was still undetermined how huge was the size of the mine. They still had to continue to search the periter, especially to roughly determine its boundaries.
Hence, Wizard Darknight circled around the mine, and searched around the area. Finally, the boundaries of the mine were determined. Its diater spanned over fifty miles across.
Such a huge mine! Regardless of rlin, Darknight or Lady Phillie, all of them sucked in a cold breath. It was just overly huge. If such a huge elental crystal stone mine had appeared in the Glorious Land, both the southern and northern Spell Caster world were sure to react insanely.
“Good. Very good. Such a huge mine! Darknight, from today onward, mobilize all the power you can to exploit this mine at full capacity!”
“Lady Phillie, follow to Bisque City. All the big and small businesses in Bisque City will be placed under your control. I’ll set up a trade association with you as the president to manage everything!”
Lady Phillie and Wizard Darknight nodded excitedly. From today onward, they were people with the highest authority in the sphere of influence in Bisque City, excluding rlin himself. This was a feat that they could not even hope to achieve in the past.
Subsequently, rlin entered Bisque City without a hitch. Upon receiving verified news that Tambert was truly dead, Bisque City was very welcoming toward rlin.
In fact, this was understandable as Tambert had also previously used the sa thod. He defeated the forr Spell Caster from Bisque City and took control over it. Since he was greedy by nature, his death did not stir up much sentints.
Coupled with the fact that rlin had managed to kill Tambert, and must be very powerful, naturally, Bisque City was not so ignorant to resist rlin.
After taking over Bisque City, rlin took a proper stock take of the strength of Bisque City. He counted a total of thirty-nine small towns and cities. Among them, there were about nine cities with a flourishing trade like Boulder City.
Overall, the cities were relatively affluent, only that Tambert had not managed them well. Instead, all he did was search and snatch from these cities, so their degrees of developnt were worse than before.
rlin employed Lady Phillie and established a trade association to handle all the issues arising from the trade of these thirty-nine cities. Once the trade began to flourish, then the elental crystal stones rlin could obtain would be insurmountable.
The resources left behind by Tambert in Bisque City were also quite abundant. Back when rlin killed Tambert, he naturally did not leave behind his ring. Inside Tambert’s ring were mountains of elental crystal stones, up to tens of thousands in number. Additionally, there were various precious potions, and alchemy materials.
“Tambert is rich, much richer than !”
rlin carefully examined Tambert’s ring. Most of the contents were elental crystal stones. In addition, there were so potion and alchemy materials as well as so that rlin did not recognize.
After putting the items aside, rlin summoned Lady Phillie.
Lady Phillie stood before rlin respectfully. Her entire person looked radiant, and the charm of a matured woman beca more pronounced.
“Lady Phillie! You have an assignnt. I’m going to isolate myself for so ti. You need to mobilize all your resources and help find so potion, potion formula or other prized items that can increase Mind Power. Even just a lead is acceptable. Do you understand?”
Lady Phillie nodded thoughtfully. “Please don’t worry Wizard rlin. I’ll pay close attention in this matter.”
“Very well, you may leave.”
After rlin had sent Lady Phillie away, he focused his attention on his Mind Power. Truth was, his Mind Power had achieved the peak of the Sixth-level.
However, advancing from the Sixth- to the Seventh-level was a substantive transformation. Many of Sixth-level Spell Casters would be affected by the illusion in rlin’s Darkness-type spell whereas Seventh-level Wizards would not be affected much.
The Mind Power of Seventh-level Spell Caster was a substantive transformation. Therefore, if rlin did not have a large amount of Mind Power, it would be difficult to forcibly upgrade to the Seventh-level.
His Mind Power would not be able to undergo a transformation for the ti being. Next, rlin could also construct the remaining Fire-type, and Wind-type spells. These two types of spells had been derived by the Matrix, so all rlin had to do was to introduce a suitable Spell Model into his Awareness.
Constructing spells was already a familiar process to rlin but it required so ti.
...
Six days later, rlin opened his eyes. At this mont, there were four Fifth-level Spell Models in his body. First, there was Shadow Assassin and Enervating Halo. The newly-constructed Wind-type spell was called Traceless Wind. Its speed was faster than Rainbow Wind, completely silent and very subtle.
Besides Traceless Wind, there was also Destructive Fla. This was a Fifth-level spell, so the strength of the flas was increased slightly. Nevertheless, it still could only defeat a peak Seventh-level. Defeating an Eighth-level would still be a challenge.
After all, if rlin encountered soone who had Fusion Pandora Demon Ability, and cultivated it to the third form, then it would be a peak Seventh-level Spell Caster like Tambert. rlin was completely unable to defeat him, and could only rely on the fourth form of Darkness Eye to kill him.
The biggest advantage that rlin had over an average Seventh-level Spell Caster was that his spells were all self-derived. However, this advantage in terms of spells would be offset by the opponent’s Seventh-level spells. So ultimately, it would beco a competition of Pandora Demon Abilities. In this regard, rlin did not have a clear advantage.
Therefore, despite having constructed Fifth-level spells, based on Pandora Demon Ability, he was only able to compete against a peak Seventh-level Wizard. In other words, his ability did not improve greatly.
However, this was already anticipated by rlin. From Seventh-level onward, every level-up would bring about a trendous change in abilities. Especially since he ca to this new dinsion, it was like returning to the Spell Casters’ most glorious era. Thus, Spell Casters with Fusion Pandora Demon Abilities were not rare. Back in the Glorious Land, rlin had the advantage of possessing Pandora Demon Abilities. However, in this new dinsion, his advantage of possessing Pandora Demon Abilities had almost disappeared into nothing.
Now, rlin had Fire-type Pandora Demon Ability, Darkness-type Pandora Demon Ability, Wind-type Pandora Demon Ability, Ice-type Pandora Demon Ability, and Earth-type Pandora Demon Ability. He only lacked Thunder-type Pandora Demon Ability.
It was not that rlin did not have Thunder-type Pandora Demon Ability. What he lacked was the ti to cultivate it. With a bright flash, the third volu of the Neverending Book appeared in his hand. In the third volu of the Neverending Book created by Wizard Saitu, there were many Pandora Demon Abilities in it.
Moreover, there were also several Fusion Pandora Demon Abilities with considerable power. Previously, rlin had taken a cursory glance. Among the Thunder-type Pandora Demon Abilities, there was a Fusion Pandora Demon Ability called Thunder Fury.
It also had three forms, and its power was quite formidable. By nature, Thunder-type spells contained very powerful attacking force. Coupled with Pandora Demon Ability Thunder Fury, rlin’s arsenal of Offensive spells would beco even more complete.
Perhaps, the combination of Thunder-type spells and Fire-type spells together with Glacier Country would be enough to compete with an Eighth-level Spell Caster.
Nonetheless, cultivating Thunder Fury would require a Thunder Stone. This type of Thunder Stone was unheard of by rlin back in the Glorious Land, so there was no way for him to cultivate it. Now in this new dinsion, rlin would get people to look out for the Thunder Stone.
rlin now possessed several Pandora Demon Abilities such as Wind-type, Fire-type, and Darkness-type, which are all Fusion Pandora Demon Abilities. Only Ice-type, and Thunder-type did not have Fusion Pandora Demon Abilities.
While he had Pandora Demon Ability Glacier Country as Ice-type, it was actually a special Pandora Demon Ability, and not a Fusion Pandora Demon Ability. Thus, it could not be incorporated into other spells as it existed separately from spells. Therefore, rlin still had to cultivate an Ice-type Pandora Demon Ability.
There were many types of Pandora Demon Abilities though it seed like many of them were not very useful such as the Ice-type Pandora Demon Ability. Now that he already had Glacier Country, even if he had cultivated a Fusion Pandora Demon Ability, it would be impossible for its power to surpass that of Glacier Country. Hence, he would be unlikely to use it and it would not be highly useful.
However, rlin was planning even further ahead. His objective was not just to beco a Seventh-level Spell Caster but a Great Wizard or a Great Legendary Wizard.
Once a Spell Caster beca a Great Wizard, there would be a crucial turning point where all his spells would fuse together. As Fusion Pandora Demon Ability would fuse seamlessly into spells, all the Spell Models in the Awareness fuse together to form a single Spell Model. As a result, the ability of the Great Wizard would depend on the strength of the fused spells, the number of fused Spell Models, and the number of Fusion Pandora Demon Abilities.
No matter what, the spell fusion of a Three-Elental Wizard would be far lesser than a Four- or Five-Elental Spell Caster. Moreover, for Spell Casters with Fusion Pandora Demon Ability, the greater the number of Fusion Pandora Demon Abilities, the more powerful he would beco. Thus, upon leveling-up to a Great Wizard, and at the instant the spell fusion occurred, the Spell Caster’s ability would surge rapidly.
Since rlin was a Six-Elental Spell Caster, he was already very powerful. So, if he had a Fusion Pandora Demon Ability for every elent, upon fusion, he would beco even more formidable than before.
rlin contemplated for a long ti. Although the Thunder-type, and Ice-type Pandora Demon Abilities would not increase his abilities by much, it was his preparation for the future to beco a Great Wizard!
Therefore, no matter how difficult it was to obtain the Thunder Stone, rlin must still search for it. As for the Ice-type Fusion Pandora Demon Ability, rlin carefully searched through the Neverending Book and found a few Ice-type Fusion Pandora Demon Abilities. Nevertheless, they also required so Ice-type treasure that rlin did not have.
The cultivation of Thunder-type, and Ice-type Pandora Demon Abilities had to be set aside temporarily. All he could do now was to wait quietly.
