Chapter 509: Chapter 49Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The next morning, Sui Xiong went to the hotel and saw Tu Ya’an, who was forced to wake up by Tessa, with a pale face.
“You shouldn’t drink so much,” Sui Xiong said, “You face is so pale now!”
Tu Ya’an smiled bitterly. He wanted to tell the truth but finally chose to be silent.
How could a legendary master be drunk? A necromancer was good at handling abnormal conditions. The reason why he looked pale was because he was scolded by Tessa…
But Tessa was nearby. Tu Ya’an decided to hide this truth and not say it out loud.
Sui Xiong failed to see through this because a G.o.d’s mind reading power didn’t work on a legendary master. Seeing Tu Ya’an stay silent, Sui Xiong patted him on the shoulder with his tentacles and treated him with Divine Power.
Sui Xiong’s Divine Power was extremely powerful. With only one second, Tu Ya’an immediately felt refreshed. Even a little bit of tiredness disappeared, and he was in good spirits.
“Well, back to business,” Sui Xiong said. “I’m going to start building a magic tower for you. Are you going to give me a blueprint or a general idea, and then I’ll add the details?”
Tu Ya’an paused and asked, “You would like to help me build a magic tower?”
“Of course, how could a legendary mage not have a magic tower?” Sui Xiong was shocked and did not understand why he asked that. “Since I asked you for help, I naturally had to prepare a magic tower for you. Even employers would arrange accommodation for their employees in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou.”
Tu Ya’an did not ask where Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou were. He was silent for a moment and said, “I have no special requirements for the magic tower. Just not place with positive power.”
Sui Xiong laughed and said, “Do you look down on me? How could I make such a stupid mistake!”
Since Tu Ya’an had no special requirements, Sui Xiong put forward his own idea. He planned to build the magic tower next to the “Dragon and Dungeons” Adventure Park. The entire magic tower was mostly underground. It could avoid letting ordinary people see those ghostly and terrible Dead Soul Spells. This magic tower had only three floors on the ground but six floors under the ground. Most importantly, this magic tower had a pool of negative energy, a projection room of the underworld and the channel of the River Styx. The pool of negative energy could provide an abundant source of magic for Tu Ya’an’s magic research. The projection room and the channel of the River Styx could allow him to detect the underworld without going out, and he could even capture experimental materials directly from the underworld.
The pool of negative energy could be constructed with money and common materials; Tu Ya’an’s previous magic tower had one. But the projection room and the channel of the River Styx were very difficult to construct. Even legendary mages could not do it. In the past, Tu Ya’an always used a transmission formation to get to the underworld. In order to ensure the safety of the transmission, he had to clean up all kinds of underworld Magic Beasts at the exit. It was troublesome.
With the projection room and the channel of the River Styx, it was more convenient. Tu Ya’an could not only see the underworld directly in the magic tower but also capture the experimental materials directly with a little magic power.
The amount of magic consumption was not a problem with the pool of negative energy.
There was no doubt that Sui Xiong was going to build an ideal magic tower for Tu Ya’an.
Tu Ya’an planned to develop step by step in Void City. Firstly, he would build a magic laboratory; then he would acc.u.mulate some money to expand the laboratory into a magic tower as he had done in the past. He never thought that His Majesty would help him to complete his dream all at once!
He wanted to express his grat.i.tude in a sincere way, but he was ineloquent in saying anything. He could only say, “Thank you.”
After Sui Xiong left with a smile, Tu Ya’an sighed deeply and said to his sister, “I finally understand why so many people crazily admire and wors.h.i.+p His Majesty.”
“Yes, he is a king who makes people look forward to meeting him! Maybe we don’t have to run away if the earl could be as great as His Majesty,” Tessa sighed and said.
In the past, when Tessa and Tu Ya’an were little, their parents were the magic counselors under an Earl of the Duchy of Thunder. Their parents accidentally offended the earl’s love child, and the earl wanted to kill them for it. Before they died, their parents burned their life essence, using the strongest power to transmit Tessa and Tu Ya’an to Mill City. There, they had asked an old friend to take care of them.
This old friend was only a mid-ranked mage. Of course, he wasn’t able to avenge their parents for them. What he could do was take care of Tu Ya’an and Tessa.
But Tu Ya’an and Tessa had been seriously injured and poisoned, and the mage did his best but only saved Tu Ya’an.
He froze Tessa, who was going to die. When Tu Ya’an became a powerful necromancer under Master Mill’s teaching, he resurrected his sister, she became a half-dead person.
Later, when Tu Ya’an became a high-level magician and was ready to step into the Legendary Realm, he returned to his hometown to seek revenge from his enemies. But he forgot two important things—time and life span.
At that time, he was almost seventy years old, a young and promising magician. But seventy years for ordinary people had exceeded most people’s lifespan.
When he returned to his hometown, even their grandson was dead, let alone the earl and his son.
Tu Ya’an gave up taking revenge on the grand-grandson and left in frustration.
But this touched him very much. Shortly after he came back, he succeeded in stepping into the Legendary Realm and became the first legendary mage among the students of Master Mill.
These were past stories, and Tu Ya’an almost forgot them. Tessa mentioned them and felt that time pa.s.sed quickly.
Looking back on the past, Tu Ya’an had the same feelings as Tessa. If they had met a kind lord, Tu Ya’an might not have become a legendary mage, but could have a happy family with healthy parents and lovely children. He might’ve been an ordinary magician, who grew old and died peacefully.
It would not be bad to have such a life, but it was impossible now.
A Lord like His Majesty would only be the builder of the Pearl of Thunder, like Baron Crick Keane, who was the Holy Spirit of His Majesty.
With a deep sigh, Tu Ya’an began to wonder what he could do for His Majesty.
A legendary mage was an extremely important high-end force for most countries and organizations, but it was not helpful for His Majesty. After all, His Majesty was one of the most powerful G.o.ds. He had to think about what he could do besides using force.
He wondered for a long time and was distressed to find that he did not seem to have any special skills other than being able to fight. That was common for most mages. If force was not taken into account, he might be a scholar.
However… A scholar? Was that useful to a G.o.d?
They were probably useful, but that was not worth having a magic tower.
Tu Ya’an meditated and discussed with his sister for a long time but never found a good answer.
A few days later, Sui Xiong told Tu Ya’an that the magic tower had been completed. After he moved in with his sister, he was inspired while creating several dead servants to do some housework temporarily.
“I know what I can do!” He laughed excitedly and hugged his sister. “I’m going to open a special store and rent out all kinds of dead servants!”
