Chapter 549: Pavilion of Rarities
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The black-robed Wizard was Merlin, who came from afar. He naturally knew how famous the Devouring Insect Tribe in front of him was. However, as the trapped Wizard said, these insects were still in their infancy stage, and were not strong at all.
“Endless Flame!”
Merlin took a step forward, and his body burst into ferocious flames. The might of Merlin’s sixth-level spell could already rival a ninth-level spell.
Perhaps it was nothing much before the dense Devouring Insect Tribe, but Merlin still had another move.
“What? Hurry up and go. Those are Devouring Insects. Even if they’re in their infancy stage, they’re not something that you can handle. Hurry and go to the Shkedu Dimension and call for a Great Wizard.”
Luce became very worried when he saw Merlin acted directly. He was anxious that if Merlin died, there would be no hope for him anymore.
“Is that so?”
Merlin looked at the insects that were surrounded by the flames. His Fire-type spell indeed could not do anything against these insects, but very quickly, sounds of thunder started to rumble in the vast Void Zone.
“Boom!”
Countless peals of lightning roared down, turning into an electric net, and mercilessly fell on Endless Fire. The flames and electricity formed a perfect fusion and emitted a dreadful force.
“Explode!”
Merlin shouted softly, and a white light immediately rumbled, almost lighting up several hundred meters of the Void Zone. The terrifying shock wave spread in all directions without restraint.
As for the dense Devouring Insect Tribe, they no longer emitted any sound. They were completely reduced into ash by the fused spell’s explosive shock wave…
“Whoosh…”
Merlin cast a Wind-type spell to blow away some of the smoke generated from the explosion. The insects have all but completely disappeared, and all that was left was Wizard Luce’s astonished face.
Merlin walked toward Wizard Luce and said calmly, “It’s time to honor your promise. One million and two hundred thousand elemental crystal stones!”
“Uh…”
Wizard Luce returned to his senses. He looked at Merlin with flas.h.i.+ng eyes and knew that the Wizard before him was a true Spell Caster genius from the legends. The kind of demonic super genius who was able to surpa.s.s several challenges!
Merlin was only a sixth-level Spell Caster, but when he handled the horrible Devouring Insect Tribe, he looked relaxed, and dealt with them easily. Only demonic geniuses could have that kind of power.
“Of course, I won’t go back on my word!”
After the excitement, Wizard Luce’s heart was filled with bitterness. One million and two hundred thousand elemental crystal stones… He had acc.u.mulated them over hundreds of years, but now they were all gone.
Although his heart ached, he was already very lucky to preserve his life. Thus, Wizard Luce very willingly gave the one million and two hundred thousand elemental crystal stones over to Merlin.
Merlin kept the elemental crystal stones inside his ring, and revealed a smile. He never thought that he would be able to get such a large sum of “easy money” after almost reaching the Shkedu Dimension. His purpose at the Shkedu Dimension this time was to buy some rare items, and he did have a lot of elemental crystal stones. However, no one knew how much those rare items would cost, so the more elemental crystal stones he had, the better.
Then, when Luce found out that Merlin wanted to go to the Shkedu Dimension, he volunteered to be Merlin’s guide. Since Merlin was not familiar with the Shkedu Dimension, having a Wizard as a guide would help him avoid a lot of trouble.
Thus, the two Wizards chatted while flying toward the Shkedu Dimension.
…
“It’s bustling!”
Merlin stood outside the Shkedu Dimension, and watched the many Spell Casters going to and fro, and said with deep emotion. He had not seen such a lively scene ever since he entered the Void Zone.
The Shkedu Dimension in front of him had countless flying s.h.i.+ps constantly entering and exiting. There were also some Spell Casters, but the lowest of them were of the seventh-level, and they were driving some stronger Spell Casters. Otherwise, it would be difficult to enter the dimension.
There was even fewer Spell Caster below the seventh-level like Merlin!
Wizard Luce, who was acting as Merlin’s guide, said proudly, “That’s natural. I’ve been in the Shkedu Dimension since I was young, so I know it like the back of my hand! The entire Shkedu Dimension is basically equivalent to a huge trade city. The Spell Casters coming and going into the Shkedu Dimension span from hundreds of dimensions. Even some great Honored Legends sometimes come to the Shkedu Dimension to see if there’s anything they need.”
Then, the two flew into the Shkedu Dimension together. Although there were many Spell Casters in this huge dimension, there were also many Elements. In fact, it was rich in Elements, and was a very suitable dimension for Spell Casters.
Along the way, Wizard Luce had introduced the Shkedu Dimension in a non-stop babble. He pointed at a group of Spell Casters, and said proudly, “The number of Spell Casters in the Shkedu Dimension are countless. Roughly speaking, there’re at least a billion of them!
“In addition to the large amount of Spell Casters, some ordinary Shkedians have completely a.s.similated into the Spell Caster civilization, and have become no different from us, Spell Casters. Moreover, we even produced three Honored Legends as well as dozens of ordinary Legends!”
Wizard Luce’s detailed explanation of the Shkedu Dimension made Merlin wonder. Honored Legends were exceedingly rare, and generally, hundreds of dimensions might not even give birth to an Honored Legend. However, in just one Shkedu Dimension, they had produced two Honored Legends in addition to hundreds of ordinary Legends. That was very strange.
However, it might have something to do with the many Spell Casters gathered in the Shkedu Dimension.
“By the way, Wizard Merlin, you must remember that the Shkedu Dimension doesn’t prohibit casting spells. Fighting at close quarters is also allowed, but the buildings here mustn’t be damaged! If you enter any building, you can’t make any more moves, otherwise, you’ll be killed by the Shkedu Dimension’s law enforcement department.”
Wizard Luce said this with a solemn expression. This law enforcement department was the force that controlled the entire Shkedu Dimension. The strongest among them were nine Honored Legends, and two were Honored Legends from the Shkedu Dimension.
The large Shkedu Dimension had naturally attracted countless resources, and gathered countless Spell Casters. Honored Legends from outside would also naturally wanted to occupy it. Thus, after fighting and compromising, the remaining nine Honored Legends formed the law enforcement department, and recruited some ordinary Legends to jointly maintain the prosperity of the Shkedu Dimension.
Fighting in the Shkedu Dimension did not mean anything but if it involved buildings or entering a shop to kill someone, that would go against the Dimension’s rules. Even some Great Legends did not dare to violate the rules.
Once, there were three powerful Legends who killed a Great Wizard in the Shkedu Dimension. In the end, an Honored Legend personally acted, and killed him in one shot.
From then on, even Great Legends had to obey the Shkedu Dimension’s rules!
Merlin also nodded. Such rules were reasonable. Without these rules, the Shkedu Dimension would become chaotic, and it would affect its prosperity.
“Wizard Luce, I need to buy some rare items to cultivate fused Pandora Demon Abilities. Do you know where I should look?”
Merlin did not conceal anything, and said he wanted to buy rare items.
“Oh? So, Wizard Merlin is also making plans for constructing seventh-level spells. If you’re looking for rare items, then the most suitable place would be the Pavilion of Rarities. That place specializes in selling powerful Pandora Demon Abilities as well as its corresponding rare items. They’re very diverse and have almost everything. I believe that Wizard Merlin won’t be disappointed.”
“Then, I’ll have to trouble Wizard Luce to lead the way.”
Merlin then followed Wizard Luce and flew toward the Pavilion of Rarities.
Merlin looked closely at his fused Pandora Demon Abilities. Currently, he had Flash Wind, Fiery Collapse, Darkness Heart. Thunder Fury, Binding Ice, and Fuse Earth.
Some of them, such as Fiery Collapse, Thunder Fury, Binding Ice, and Fuse Earth, needed rare items while Flash Wind and Darkness Heart did not. Once he had constructed seventh-level spells, and practiced more, the power of his Pandora Demon Abilities would naturally increase.
As Merlin was carefully coming through his fused Pandora Demon Abilities, they reached the Pavilion of Rarities. Standing in front of the Pavilion were two beautiful Great Wizards.
Majestic Great Wizards were designated as gatekeepers. Merlin shook his head helplessly. It seemed that in this prosperous Dimension, everything could be measured with elemental crystal stones.
Even Luce once joked that he could buy a Great female Legend for a day as long as he could afford it… Of course, that was only a joke. It was difficult to say if there really was something like that. Even if there was, the price would definitely be unimaginable.
“Respected Wizards, is there anything you two need?”
A beautiful female Great Wizard quickly stepped forward, and asked respectfully.
Merlin frowned. If this was anywhere else, a lofty Great Wizard with a grand position would never act like this, and have a respectful att.i.tude toward a low-level Wizard like Merlin.
However, in the prosperous Shkedu Dimension, it seemed like everything changed.
“This is the list of all the rare items I want. Does your Pavilion of Rarities have them?”
Merlin directly made a list of every rare item he needed.
The female Great Wizard revealed a smile after reading the list. “These are all very ordinary rare items. For example, the Bright Thunder Stone is a rare item for cultivating Thunder Fury, and the Millennium Lava Heart is a rare item for cultivating Fuse Earth. Our Pavilion of Rarities has all the rare items in this list. However, with all due respect, these Pandora Demon Abilities aren’t strong Pandora Demon Abilities. Their powers are all very mediocre. If you cultivate these fused Pandora Demon Abilities to the seventh-level, there might be a large impact on its strength.
“Hm? What do you mean? Can I re-cultivate Pandora Demon Abilities?”
Merlin frowned, and he coldly looked at the female Wizard in front of him. Merlin’s weakness was indeed just his fused Pandora Demon Abilities. Since these Pandora Demon Abilities were all obtained in the Kingdom of Blackmoon, they were completely incomparable to the Spell Casters in the Void Zone.
More importantly, each spell type could only cultivate one fused Pandora Demon Ability. Merlin had no more chance to reconstruct other Pandora Demon Abilities anymore.
