Chapter 1364: Tantalization

In only half a minute, the part of the monster’s body that hadn’t been pushed into the wall of mist yet turned gray and lackluster. The brilliance of mana was dispersing too.

Everybody’s spells collapsed when they hit the gray part of the body…

The monster screamed in pain, but it completely lost control of its body. Gray light circulated on its skin, and it turned into a gray stone statue as if it had been petrified.

A moment later, the part of the monster’s body that had turned into a gray stone statue crumbled into pieces, and its part submerged in the wall of mist was completely gone…

The battle was over. Lin Yun was slightly relieved, and the others were greatly relieved.

If they had continued fighting such an undying monster, the winner would undoubtedly have been the monster instead of them…

Levis smiled at Lin Yun in gratitude. After all, they would’ve all died in the battle had it not been for Lin Yun.

Danason returned to the mountains impatiently and moved onward. Dalton, on the other hand, glared at Lin Yun so angrily as if Lin Yun had just killed his own father. He then followed Danason.

Levis didn’t follow them. Instead, he approached Lin Yun.

“Sir Mafa Merlin, we cannot thank you enough. None of us could’ve survived without you. It’s truly terrifying. I certainly do not want to face that tireless and undying monster again.

“After this exploration, you are welcome to visit the Storm Tower as a guest. I believe the Storm Tower and the Gilded Rose may cooperate more closely. The Blue Demon Potion and the Luminosity Potion of the Gilded Rose are necessities for the Storm Tower right now…”

Levis suddenly became courteous, and even voluntarily adulated Lin Yun, which puzzled the latter. Supposedly, the Storm Tower was much more powerful than the Gilded Rose. It had occupied Storm City for thousands of years. Even the royal family of the Odin Kingdom couldn’t challenge its position. Why would it be so friendly?

The Gilded Rose and the Holy Light Alliance had been in a bad relationship because the Thorny Crown and the Holy Light Alliance’s conflict was getting obvious, and the Thorny Crown had surrendered to Lin Yun. Considering the craziness of the Holy Light Alliance, it was only a matter of time before they declared war on the Gilded Rose.

The Storm Tower and the Holy Light Alliance weren’t very close. After all, the Holy Light Alliance wasn’t really close to anyone. Still, they were certainly not enemies.

Dalton probably would overthink the Storm Tower’s attitude. It was possible that the rabid dogs would bite the Storm Tower too.

Lin Yun was puzzled, but didn’t refuse Levis’ friendliness. The Storm Tower occupied Storm City, which was one of the three biggest ports on the east side of the Odin Kingdom. When acquiring resources from the Boundless Sea, it was impossible to circumvent the Storm Tower.

It would be great if he could cooperate with the Storm Tower, and exchange for the resources of the Boundless Sea.

After talking with Lin Yun for a while, Levis flew away. While flying, Levis put on a smile, and looked at Dalton’s back in the distance with disdain.

What a stupid rabid dog of the Holy Light Alliance. They think nobody dares to deal with them after all the crazy things they’ve done?

Everybody simply doesn’t want to bite back at a rabid dog…

The wealth in the relics is not a big deal. No matter how much wealth there is, it is not unlimited; Mafa Merlin is the greatest treasure here.

Dalton, that idiot, is said to be an Artisan. Hehe. He’s just a sh*tty Artisan…

Did he not notice Mafa Merlin’s capabilities when Mafa Merlin opened the enclosed world of mountains?

He used a different method to unlock each of the stone pillars, and he found the key in several minutes every time. Even though I’m not familiar with alchemy, I know that Mafa Merlin is much more skilled than all the Artisans I know. He’s probably as good as the three deans of the Starry Sky College.

The man is already on the verge of becoming a Saint Alchemist!

He is not just good at making potions, but he is also an expert in alchemy arrays. I remember that Mafa Merlin’s splendid wheel was a True Spirit Magic Tool in the past, but it is already an Extraordinary Magic Tool right now…

There are also those terrifying iron warships. All of this indicates that Mafa Merlin is on the verge of becoming a Saint Alchemist in terms of potions, magic tools, alchemy puppets, alchemy devices, alchemy arrays, etc.

Also, Mafa Merlin seems to be very close to the Starry Sky College. Does it not mean anything?

Mafa Merlin is definitely backed by the Great Astrologian. It’s possible that he will take over the Starry Sky College!

He’s a young omnipotent alchemist who’s already in level 5 of the Heaven Rank. He also has the support of the Great Astrologian, the Starry Sky College, the Gilded Rose, and the Andlusa Kingdom. Everybody who’s not an idiot should know what to choose.

Levis looked at Dalton with a cold smile. He had already decided that it was better to make friends with Lin Yun, even if it meant offending the rabid dogs of the Holy Light Alliance…

Lin Yun didn’t know that Levis had found out a lot of information that other people neglected. He had even noticed the Andlusa Kingdom.

Other people might have little respect for the Andlusa Kingdom. Still, as the leader of the once powerful Merlin Family in the Andlusa Kingdom, the man restored his family to its former glory in only one year, which certainly deserved attention.

The Storm Tower occupied one of the Odin Kingdom’s three biggest ports, and almost monopolized the wealth of the sea. It was certainly not a group of brainless fools. Levis, the legendary Storm Maniac, knew the importance of finding more allies for the Storm Tower.

After Lin Yun followed them onward, he saw that Dalton and Danason were studying the King’s Pillars, as if they were considering how to pluck the pillars.

The center of the mountains was a round plain, with 24 King’s Pillars established in it. They were all the remaining King’s Pillars.

There was nothing except the King’s Pillars.

The people of the Holy Light Alliance occupied half of the territory, and the Chester Family occupied the other half. They seemed to have split up the 24 King’s Pillars. Levis watched peacefully at the edge of the plain, as if he weren’t interested at all.

As Lin Yun approached, Dalton immediately greeted him with a smile.

“Sir Merlin, you came late. Sir Danason and I found those stone pillars. They’re ours. Feel free to check other places and see if you can find any.”

Mafa Merlin, you greedy leech. This time, I’ve finally seized the opportunity. He was the one who said whoever found something and put it in their space ring would owe it. Now, those bizarre pillars are all mine.

I’ll take away those pillars first, and find a chance to rob Mafa Merlin of the remaining pillars. They must contain great secrets. The power of gods once emerged in this place anyway. It’s possible that the stone pillars were a god’s magic tools!

Lin Yun wore a weird smile, but didn’t say anything.

Levis, who had been secretly observing Lin Yun, immediately put on an expression of understanding. He looked at Dalton with even more mockery in his eyes.

Dalton, you’re truly too stupid to be saved…

I’m not good at alchemy, but I can see how difficult it is to pick up the pillars. Mafa Merlin is not worried at all, which means that there’s no way that Dalton can possibly take away the stone pillars.

Dalton’s probably feeling good about himself. I pity him for his stupidity…

Enderfa, who was following Lin Yun, was trying to hold back his smile on all of his three faces.

Damn. I knew that Merlin wouldn’t be so kindhearted. He set up a trap for this idiot when he said that whoever put something in their space ring would get to keep it…

I knew that Merlin was digging a trap for all of those fools to jump in.

Lin Yun was not concerned at all. He didn’t care about Dalton and the others who were busy plucking the King’s Pillars. Instead, he observed the environment.

All the 72 King’s Pillars had appeared. This was definitely the place where the 73rd God had landed and been reborn. In the center of the circle of 72 King’s Pillars, the 73rd God had surely stayed on the empty ground.

Lin Yun didn’t find any useful leads after half an hour of searching. This place was simply too desolate and clean, without any traces left. It seemed that all traces had been wiped out.

Lin Yun was slightly disappointed. It was hard to determine what the 73rd God had been reborn as. Even the date of the rebirth couldn’t be confirmed, either…

Although Lin Yun didn’t find anything, Dalton and Danason didn’t get anything, either.

As a matter of fact, Danason had already given up a dozen minutes earlier. They could not pluck the stone pillars from the soil no matter how they tried. They even tried violent methods, but to no avail. Moreover, they couldn’t even damage the King’s Pillars…

Danason quit, and Dalton immediately claimed all the 24 King’s Pillar’s. Unfortunately, as time went by, there was nothing that Dalton could do about the King’s Pillars.

Lin Yun had gone elsewhere for investigation. Danason, leading the mages of the Chester Family, and Levis, with the mages of the Storm Tower, were exploring other places too.

A few hours passed. Everybody found a lot of unique materials. Although there was not a living creature deep inside the relics, not even a plant, there were indeed abundant ores and materials.

The three forces each occupied a place, and started collecting. They gave up on everything that wasn’t very valuable. After all, the Chester Family and the Storm Tower only had 10 members on their team.

Lin Yun, however, initiated a grand exploitation. He had enough mining puppets to form a huge legion. In a moment, he collected and transported all the materials he found regardless of their quality.

The 3,000 mining puppets began to exploit. Like locusts, they dug out a tremendous amount of resources, and transported them away. The ores here were all advanced. There was even a lot of high-purity silver. A lot of other useful ores could be found too.

Some of the ores and materials here were in the top tier, including the Eternal Dark Gold, the Star Mithril, the Blood Gem, Estis’ Tears, etc.

Those materials were quite rare in Noscent, and had no such abundant deposits. It seemed that someone had just piled them in this place, and laid a bunch of stone and mud on top of them.

The Heaven Rank experts of the Chester Family dug in person, and summoned a lot of beasts to help. Their efficiency was not bad. The Storm Tower exploited the ores with Extraordinary Magic Tools too. They simply dug out whatever they found and packed it up, planning to identify the materials later.

Three days passed. While the mages of the Holy Light Alliance were still dealing with the 24 King’s Pillars, the other three forces had collected the most resource-rich mines within dozens of kilometers.

Dalton was so anxious that his eyes were bloodshot. He didn’t know what to do about the 24 King’s Pillars, which looked like normal stone pillars. He had tried every method in the past three days, even including attacking them with extraordinary spells.

The stone pillars were undamaged, indicating that they were unusual, yet they could not be taken away. During the three days, the other three forces had dug out a lot of top precious resources. Sometimes, they were digging right around the circle.

It seemed that someone had laid all those precious materials as the foundation. They had all been buried shallowly right under the surface of the soil. One only had to lower one’s back to pick them up.

Those precious materials already made the exploration of the relics worthwhile. In most relics, the quality of resources that were found could be vastly different. The top materials could be directly used as unassembled True Spirit Magic Tools. Some could even be used as materials for Extraordinary Magic Tools.

The materials that could serve as materials for Extraordinary Magic Tools were all rare materials that had a high success rate when made into Extraordinary Magic Tools.

Every Heaven Rank expert wanted to use an Extraordinary Magic Tool. Unfortunately, most of them had never touched an Extraordinary Magic Tool their entire life, not to mention one that matched them perfectly.

The only way to get such an Extraordinary Magic Tool was to upgrade a tailor-made True Spirit Magic Tool into an Extraordinary Magic Tool. Unfortunately, very few people were capable of doing that in this age. Even 10,000 years later, only 1% of the Heaven Rank experts would have the luck to receive one.

Thanks to all the rare materials that were found, the success rate of upgrading their True Spirit Magic Tool into an Extraordinary Magic Tool could be significantly boosted. Although the rate would be no higher than 30% eventually, it would still be much higher than before, and would be worth a shot.

After three days, Lin Yun was satisfied, Danason was satisfied, and Levis was satisfied. Even the Heaven Rank mages that they’d brought with them were satisfied. Even if the materials they found couldn’t turn their True Spirit Magic Tool extraordinary, they should be able to get a few tailor-made True Spirit Magic Tools with the materials.

Such returns were much more practical and valuable than those from their previous relics.

Dalton, however, was not satisfied. He was caught in a great dilemma…

He stared at the mages who were collecting resources thousands of meters away. They were Heaven Rank mages, yet they were working as miners. But nobody found it inappropriate. Not just Dalton, the other members of the Holy Light Alliance were greedy too.

They had seen a lot of materials that were suitable for holy light mages. Some of them could even be combined into the best tailor-made True Spirit Magic Tools by any good Artisan.

Unfortunately, although they were so close to the materials, they could only watch. They were stuck with the stone pillars, and couldn’t do anything.

Dalton threw away his tools, and kicked the King’s Pillar brutally. He couldn’t hold it any longer…

“Forget those goddamn stone pillars. However valuable they are, we are not able to take them away, but if we do not start picking up those rare materials that are buried right in the soil, those greedy leeches will take them all!

“Look at Mafa Merlin, who’s greedier than a devil. He’s deployed thousands of alchemy puppets to collect the materials! Damn it…”

Dalton was so outraged that he cursed and abandoned the King’s Pillars, rushing to the mines of rare materials outside.

The Holy Light Alliance’s members already had enough. They would’ve protested against Dalton’s decision had it not been for the strict hierarchy within the Holy Light Alliance.

The moment Dalton walked out of the flat, empty ground where the King’s Pillars were located, Lin Yun appeared like a ghost. Then, Dalton stopped.

“Mafa Merlin, what are you doing? This is the Holy Light Alliance’s territory!”

Dalton ominously stood in Lin Yun’s way. He was so angry that he was about to purge Lin Yun with holy light.

Lin Yun pointed at the King’s Pillars in confusion.

“I thought you had given up, Sir Dalton. I didn’t know that you’re still working on it. Please continue. We won’t bother you anymore. Let’s go back to mining.”

After that, Lin Yun left with 1,000 alchemy puppets. When he turned around, Dalton put on such an awful expression as if he had just been fed sh*t.
