Chapter 1188: Elental Envoy (Part 2)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
External appearance hardly mattered, as Saleen’s Elental Eye was able to watch the elental envoy’s internal structure. With the last component assembled, every single part within the elental envoy’s body fused together, as if it were a natural lifeform born with bones, blood vessels, internal organs, hair, teeth, and everything else.
Saleen was even able to see that the Withering Dance at the heart part of the elental envoy disappeared, replaced with a strong, resilient and continuously beating heart.
“Teacher, is this true divine crafting?”
“Indeed. The ones used by the Holy See are nothing but cheap knockoffs. This is true divine crafting, an art that creates life that possesses a soul,” Jason said calmly, as if none of it was actually worth ntioning.
“Just how powerful is this elental envoy?”
Jason thought for a bit. “If I advanced to level 12 and brought the elental envoy with , no enemy at level 13 would be a problem.”
Saleen understood what he ant. The elental envoy’s usefulness exceeded his expectations. The power difference between level 12 and 13, was tens, even hundreds, of tis more than the difference between level 11 and 12.
Jason had been capable enough to deal with a level 11 elental creature without breaking a sweat. With the elental envoy in his possession, it was akin to being invincible below level 12.
But only if the enemy did not happen to possess stronger equipnt.
Anyone was capable of crafting and possessing equipnt. Saleen had seen many powerful pieces of equipnt with his own eyes, including the mark of the Six-winged Flying Snake.
He had no idea how to counter its power if it were used against him. His only counterasure was to destroy it with his family badge.
However, Saleen’s family badge required half a year to recharge. The Thunder Dragon Blaster was powerful but definitely not undefeatable like his family badge.
Even high level godly items would have their attributes wiped clean by the lightning bolt unleashed from his family badge.
“Teacher, do you mind letting see what it’s capable of?” Saleen was feeling antsy. It was the very first ti he had co across such a mystical piece of equipnt. It was alive, hardly any different from any other living beings.
“Alright then, let’s have a look.” Jason brought his student to the 15th floor of the tower. “You’ll see what the true power of territories is like!” Jason cast his two-fold territory.
Jason’s two-fold territory was different. The Water Fla Territory and Blazing Fla Territory were no longer what they used to be. The Water Fla used to be white, not silver. Blazing Fla turned black with a tinge of gold.
The two territories mashed together and ford a space with black and silver lding with one another.
Within that space, the distance of single hair’s thickness ant temperature changes between lting and freezing.
The territory was cut into very thin, discrete layers. Even the space of a hair was cut into thousands of spaces. Saleen knew that it was not the final effect. Jason would only be able to bring the true two-fold territory to bear using his magic amplifier.
The area of control of the territory was being compressed as much as possible by Jason.
He told his student, “my area of control of this territory can reach up to 60 ters. When the territory is finished, I will advance to level 11, and then the radius of my territory will be 240 ters. After I advance to level 12, the radius will grow to 1000 ters.”
Saleen clicked his tongue. While his territory had a far wider radius, its powers were 1000 tis weaker than his teacher’s. He was able to tell that if his Puppet Territory clashed with his teacher’s two-fold territory, his would be disintegrated. It would be like throwing snowflakes into raging fires.
The elental envoy stood right behind Jason. Saleen was unable to see any signs of the elental envoy providing energy to Jason, but there was no doubt that every skill that Jason used centered around him and the elental envoy.
The elental envoy enabled Jason’s skill to resonate with his environnt in so inexplicable ways. Neither the Elental Eye nor the Eye of Lightning was able to analyze the mystical frequency.
Jason had already been able to cast a two-fold territory, but without the help of the elental envoy, he was not able to maintain its effects for long.
He was initially able to maintain his territory i for re seconds, which had no practical use for battle. It even felt inadequate for practice.
Practicing a skill that only lasted for re seconds required him to rest for half a day. It would be extrely difficult for Jason to advance reliably if he continued like that.
However, as he possessed the elental envoy. The device served as a magic amplifier, and it beca a breeze for Jason to maintain his territory.
The elental envoy itself was like a puppet. Even if it were not seen as an actual living being, it would be taken as a peculiar puppet. No one else would suspect it was a magic amplifier.
Saleen was very impressed by the wonderful thought behind his teacher’s design. He had been relying on others’ thought processes too much. Even if he invented sothing that totally epoch-making, it would not be entirely his own invention.
It seed that his teacher was pointing the way for him. If he possessed Lightning Territory, the power of his new skill would be comparable to the two-fold territory.
Lightning was able to achieve terrifyingly high temperatures and its anti-soul properties were comparable to the Blazing Fla Soul-refinent skill.
Any remaining feelings of befuddlent deep in his mind disappeared. Regardless of what happened in the future, Saleen only needed to walk the path of mages. The problems awaiting him and Lex were simply a part of a mage’s life.
He was definitely not a king. If he were forced to choose between the two identities, Saleen would choose to beco just a mage.
“The elental envoy can actually fight on its own. The reason I allowed you to see it is in the hope that you won’t mimic others all the ti in your efforts in alchemy from here on out. You’re very, very smart. Of all the Sreeger Island mages I’ve seen, none are as diligent and intelligent as you are,” Jason encouraged Saleen.
He waved at the elental envoy after saying the words. The elental envoy transford into a wooden bracelet, flying towards Jason and secured itself on his wrist.
The wooden bracelet looked entirely different from the Withering Dance. It was a black bracelet with silver patterns on it. Saleen was unable to read the patterns and deduce their use. It might have been invented by Jason.
“Alright, we spent six days here and the elentite has absorbed ample magic patterns. Let’s get back to tatrin City.”
Saleen thought for a bit. His teacher had gathered enough elental creatures and succeeded in crafting the elental envoy. There was no need for him to continue hunting for beings in the abyss, as Nailisi had captured huge amounts of elental creatures.
He had no need to worry about fuel for his magic power furnace for a very long ti.
However, Saleen was unable to fathom what Jason ant by the Magical Elent Tower absorbing magic patterns. He expanded his senses and looked into every corner of the tower, finding that huge amounts of mystical, inexplicable magic patterns filled in the inner spaces of the tall tower.
The magic patterns, which filled the inside and outside of the volcano, had been crafted by ancient humans.
The tower had not absorbed them, but given how the volcano was at the brink of collapse, the seemingly semi-sapient magic patterns had automatically found their way inside the Magical Elent Tower.
The tower itself would not refuse the infusion of magic patterns as they posed no threat. In comparison to the elentite used to construct the tower, the magic patterns’ level was low.
The core of the Sky City had even began to actually absorb the magic patterns, altering the exterior of the Magical Elent Tower.
Saleen realized sothing. When one’s magic training reached the absolute pinnacle, everything would look alive. The magic patterns had been semi-sapient, and Saleen never noticed.
The fire type elent spirit did not either as it only knew wanton destruction, never realizing that the magic patterns were far more cunning than it was, choosing to hide deep within the volcano instead.
Saleen took one last reluctant look at the Imperial City of the Abyss. It was truly a treasure trove. If there were a day where he would have no need to fear the grandmaster, he would bring the entire city with him.
He would take everything of value with him, just like what he did with the goddess’ temples.
Jason was still at the tower’s helm. Fire elent crystals were thrown into the magic power furnace and orange fire shot out of the rear end of the tower. The tower was able to break the seawater and shoot upwards thanks to the thrust provided by the fires.
They were not using the magic patterns’ power, but simply used the magic arrays at the bottom of the tower. The thod of propulsion allowed the Magical Elent Tower to regain speed at over 300 miles per hour.
The magic arrays needed a two-hour break for every six hours. Saleen took the two hours to cast his Puppet Territory and hunt for magic beasts at the Oceanic Ice Block.
Saleen was unable to help but recall the first ti he ca to the Oceanic Ice Block. He needed the power of the Pan Turtle Alchemy Ship’s powers to get his way around before daring to venture in such a terrible environnt. Now, just like his teacher, he had no need for any equipnt for chasing at giants in the deep waters.
When he possessed territorial powers, the gigantic ocean life was no longer sothing difficult to deal with. With the territory at work, the puppets simply rushed and ganged up at their target. Even single-horned white whales would eventually fall against such an onslaught.
What made Saleen envious was his teacher’s elental envoy. The construct was not only a magic amplifier, but also a puppet-like bonded creature.
Jason helped Saleen hunt for beings and the elental envoy attacked just like Jason would; the only difference was that the elental envoy did not possess Jason’s territories.
Saleen was very envious of his teacher and began to have thoughts of his own. When he possessed Lightning Territory, he would definitely be able to craft an even more powerful magic amplifier.
He had gotten his is necklace from the Goddess of Myers. The necklace was not a godly item; it was a pure mage’s equipnt. Six Elent’s Heavy Water and 24 thunder dragons filled the necklace’s internal space.
The 24 thunder dragons could be made into weapon spirits while the goddess’ necklace could act as a natural magic amplifier!
Furthermore, the thunder dragons had been living within the necklace’s space since they hatched. They could continue to grow when they beca weapon spirits. When there was a need for it, they could even be unleashed to do battle.
Despite doing so would an that he had simply borrowed his teacher’s ideas, Saleen did not feel anything wrong with it. He had been researching Lightning Rules after all, and as such, it could be considered entirely original.
