Chapter 59: Detention
Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance
Lin Yun’s first priority now was to continue perfecting the Magic Array.
This was a task that would take ti. For more than half of the following month, Lin Yun remained inside the alchemy laboratory, spending all his ti polishing and improving the Magic Array.
Spell after spell, tamagic after tamagic, all of it was gradually blended into the Magic Array system one by one. And as they were rged, the Magic Array kept changing all the ti.
The change was very small at the start, to the point that even Lin Yun couldn’t perceive it. But ultimately, Lin Yun could tell that the might of these spells and tamagics greatly improved after rging with the Magic Array.
Furthermore, as more and more spells and tamagics were infused, Lin Yun was able to try combining and arranging them.
This was the most frightening part of the Magic Array.
A complete Magic Array could be considered this world’s most complicated and most detailed Magic Conducting Rune because the entire Magic Array was made up of spells and tamagics in a manner similar to a convoluted alchemy formula. Great Mages with a properly completed Magic Array could combine these spells and tamagics as they pleased, and every proper combination would increase their might to a new level.
Unfortunately, Lin Yun’s current Magic Array was far from complete...
And not only was there just a single Magic Array at the mont, but that array was also still very weak. He could only rge a few low-level spells and tamagics in right now. Lin Yun would only dare to try rging a powerful tamagic like Elental Incarnation once he reached the 5th Rank.
For all Great Mages, the 5th Rank was a very pivotal rank.
When a Great Mage reached 5th Rank, it ant that they had completed half of their Magic Conducting Rune. Regardless of what kind of Magic Conducting Rune they had, their might would be displayed by this point.
This was true to an even greater degree for a Great Mage with a Magic Array.
Such a 5th Rank Great Mage could have five Magic Arrays, and not only would he be able to rge even more spells and tamagics, but he could also thoroughly stabilize the Magic Array system. From that mont, a Great Mage with Magic Arrays would have the power to be able to fight against a High Mage.
But becoming a 5th Rank Great Mage was still sothing far in the distance for Lin Yun...
Having this extrely complicated and detailed Magic Conducting Rune was Lin Yun’s fortune, but also his misfortune. The fortunate part was that once Lin Yun beca a 5th Rank Great Mage, he would indeed have the power to contend against a High Mage. The unfortunate part was that the path Lin Yun would walk would be a lot more difficult than that of other Great Mages...
The first Magic Array took Lin Yun more than half a month to complete.
Over the course of this period, Lin Yun had rged five spells and four tamagics. Completing his first Magic Array with such a large amount of rging would have been seen as astonishing, even during the peak of the magic civilization.
When Lin Yun finally left the alchemy laboratory, he was haggard, his face was pale, and his steps were dragging. It looked as if he would fall down if he wasn’t careful.
But his bloodshot eyes were shining frighteningly, and so faint runes could even be seen in his eyes.
If Solomon were present at this ti, he would inevitably notice that this young man’s strength had undergone an earth-shattering change. The Lin Yun from half a month ago was on a totally different level from the current Lin Yun.
This was due to the changes brought by the Magic Array system...
Lin Yun had planned to look for the old butler once he ca out from the alchemy laboratory to ask how the business was doing.
But once he stepped outside, he noticed a small silhouette who had already been waiting at the doorway.
“Ah, Boss rlin, you finally ca out...” Remy looked like he had been waiting for quite a while. He seed very sleepy, and when he saw Lin Yun, he raised his hands to massage his eyes before daring to greet Lin Yun.
“Did you wait for a long ti?” Noticing Remy’s pallid appearance, Lin Yun couldn’t help frowning a bit.
The old butler had promised Lin Yun that once he entered the alchemy laboratory, no one would be allowed to disturb him. Even if a huge matter ca about, it would have to wait until he ca out himself.
For Remy to wait at the door until he fell asleep ant that sothing had definitely happened to the Gilded Rose.
“No... Not long.”
“Let’s go, you can explain on the way.” Lin Yun led Remy downstairs while he asked, “Did sothing happen to the shop?”
“Yes, indeed, the goods we delivered to Edge Rift were seized by the Viper Nest’s people.”
“The Viper Nest?” Lin Yun frowned.
Not long ago, Lin Yun had used a Ghost Potion to obtain the cooperation of the Silver Moon rcenaries, including a deal to purchase their products. Ever since then, the Silver Moon rcenaries had purchased quite a few alchemy products from the Gilded Rose.
In the beginning, these alchemy items could be delivered to the Lion Monarch Main Street. But with the Silver Moon rcenaries departing on their campaign to Edge Rift, the transport of the goods had to be done by the Gilded Rose. And in the end, a re alchemy store was far from having the ard caravans that the forr Flashing Gold chamber of comrce had.
The ten following shipnts had used up a lot of manpower, yet they still were robbed twice. Fortunately, the Silver Moon rcenaries promptly provided support and no major loss was suffered.
But those two robberies were only done by ordinary bandits. They were on the scale of a dozen people or so at most, and had been eliminated by the Silver Moon rcenaries.
As for the more well-known forces of Thousand Sails City, no one dared to make a move. After all, this was the partner of the Silver Moon rcenaries. Ordinary forces wouldn’t even have ti to hide after offending such a group, so who would dare to recklessly make a rash move?
Not to ntion the Viper Nest...
How could it be the Viper Nest? Honestly, Lin Yun couldn’t understand. Was the Viper Nest’s leader an idiot? How could they dare to seize the alchemy items that were purchased by the Silver Moon rcenaries? Aren’t they afraid of Sasu bringing his greatsword to their door?
“Oh right, Remy, when did this happen?”
“Yesterday afternoon. The five Alchemy Apprentices that went along were also captured. Boss Pave just went out to request their release from the Viper Nest.”
“Alright, I understand.”
