Cold and Warmth, Omnipotent Magic Ring
Not only Basil, but everyone around Basil was stunned.
Especially the young wizard Fire Vulture, who had previously deliberately picked a fight with Ronan, now looked like a duck with its neck being choked, its mouth agape, unable to utter a single word for a long time.
No one understood the difficulty of this test better than him.
The Terra Behemoth, possessing a thin lineage of Ancient Rock Giant, has also been injected with Berserk Potion, making its ferocity and terror unimaginable to anyone who doesn't confront it directly.
But the result was that he was instantly killed in less than two minutes?!
He's just a mere level one early-stage wizard?!
What the heck is the power of the Law Domain?
What kind of Extraordinary Magic Domain power could enable a level one early-stage wizard to so decisively and cleanly eliminate a terrifying magical beast whose strength was approaching level two, even though the wizard was only at the initial stage of the first level?!
Fire Vulture's mind was in a complete mess. He was already thinking about how he should approach the other party to apologize for his previous ignorant and foolish provocation.
After venting his anger on Basil, Tulpa turned and walked back the way he came.
His gaze involuntarily fell on the handsome young man by the small door of the test site. The veins on his bald head throbbed slightly. Besides the lingering shock, there was also a deep sense of heartache.
But his expression softened.
His anger was only directed at Basil; as for the "genius" who caused his direct losses, he would naturally try his best to befriend him. "Uh..."
Tulpa was about to go up and say a few words to the boy when he noticed that the boy was slowly walking towards someone else.
When his gaze fell on that person, the powerful spiritual energy he had just restrained erupted from his body like a volcanic eruption.
"Bennigo".
Tulpa's indifferent voice echoed in the room.
"You still dare to come out?"
That's not something you should worry about.
Bennigo tapped his pipe, chuckled, and shook his head, saying, "You haven't changed a bit, Tulpa. Still as stupid as ever."
"You!"
Tulpa's face twisted slightly, then quickly turned cold.
His gaze shifted back and forth between Ronan and Bennigo, as if he had suddenly realized something.
"No wonder. Good, very good."
Tulpa sneered, "Bennigo, I really hope to see that confident and fearless look on your face inside."
After saying that, Tulpa turned and left.
Bennigo's smile faded, and he said curtly, "Did you forget you were supposed to leave something behind?"
Tulpa paused slightly, then quickly tossed a bright, shiny object at him without turning around.
Bennigo caught it casually, didn't even look at it, and tossed it directly to Ronan.
Ronan caught it, looked down and saw that it was a beautiful silver badge with Arcane Circle pattern on it and a small silver ring underneath the pattern.
"The core credential; with this, you can freely enter and exit the Arcane Circle."
Bennigo picked up his pipe and casually said, "Come on, I'll show you around."
"Um."
Ronan followed closely behind, and the two quickly left the room, leaving only Basil and his group, who had been used as Basil bags for nothing.
Basil watched Ronan and the other man leave, his chest heaving violently.
I wouldn't say I regretted it, but I felt a strange sense of humiliation, and the metal scuff mark on my left cheek was slightly burning.
But none of that matters now.
Basil took a deep breath, his eyes flashing rapidly.
"Bennigo! So he is Bennigo! No wonder he has the identity of a 'Third Ring' but only has the strength of a late-stage Level 1. I almost forgot that there was such a person in the Seventh Magic Ring."
Basil slowly took out a Communication Stone from his Storage Waist Pouch and whispered to the stone, "Remember Bennigo? The genius who was banished from the Arcane Circle by a group of people back then."
He's back now, and he broke his promise to those people. Wasn't Travis always offering a bounty on Nightmare Tungsten Steel? Tell him for me that Bennigo has what he wants. And now couldn't be better."
Bennigo said he would take Ronan on a proper tour of the Seventh Magic Ring.
As a result, Ronan followed him into an area that was actually the domain of the official members of the Arcane Circle, but the guy told Ronan to wander around for a while and then left him to do his own thing.
Ronan was speechless at Bennigo's "irresponsibility," but he really had no obligation to "lead" him.
The deal between the two was considered complete after Ronan obtained his official membership certificate in the Arcane Circle; all that remained was for Ronan to pay his share.
Ronan stood in the empty square shrouded in a huge Rune Array light, with the Seventh Magic Ring's Silver White High Tower right in front of him, seemingly within reach.
Beneath the tower, among the various buildings, wizards who were formal members of the Arcane Circle came and went.
Fortunately, Ronan's robes were also silver-gray, so they didn't stand out too much among the row of Silver Magic Robe.
Ronan looked at everything before him, his heart filled with a faint sense of satisfaction and relief that his wish had finally come true, similar to the feeling he had when he was finally able to enter Hoddam Academy, but much stronger.
Ronan's journey has been anything but easy; he seems to be constantly overlooked by Goddess of Luck, but fortunately, he always manages to achieve his goals in the end.
Ronan casually opened his Character Panel and saw a line of small, eye-catching text on the skill bar.
—— [Ice Ball - Desperate Ice Seal (Master 3/1600)]
In the three days of preparation following his agreement with Bennigo, he barely managed to advance this zero-level spell to the Master Level.
[Ice Ball] derives into Extraordinary Magic Domain, transforming into "Desperate Ice-Seal Ball"! Due to low proficiency, the spell's effect is not particularly outstanding, but after being used as an anchor point in the construction of [Frozen Earth] 's "Ice Cold Domain", its power far exceeded Ronan's expectations.
Under the influence of the [Desperate Ice Seal] magic domain power, the "Ice Cold Domain" directly transformed into the "Despair Domain of Despair" with its own surging "Despair Aura of despair"! Three first-tier ice spells, one Master Level zero-tier spell that derived Extraordinary Magic Domain power, four Spell Anchor, plus the doubled amplification of the ice spell power of the "Yarlis Ice Ring Necklace", the final destructive effect presented was just like when Ronan instantly killed that stone beetle behemoth in the test space.
It surpasses all of Ronan's trump cards in one fell swoop, becoming the second trump card after [[Immaculate Body]]!
Given its terrifying potential for growth, it is highly likely that it will surpass the [Immaculate Body] to become Ronan's number one trump card in the future, until a way to increase the proficiency of the [Immaculate Body] is found.
"Actually, it can be used in conjunction with [[Immaculate Body]] to create a powerful crowd control spell within the first tier, probably none more powerful than 'Domain of Despair'."
Ronan's eyes gleamed as he quickly planned and conceived in his mind.
Bennigo's figure slowly hovered at the edge of a silver-white metal floating island.
He put away his pipe, took out a small Communication Stone, and whispered something to his lips.
Soon, the light of the Rune Array surrounding the floating island fluctuated slightly, and a crack automatically opened.
Bennigo was about to enter through the crack in the magic circle, a figure inside came out to greet him first.
"Brother Benny!"
The person who appeared was a young man with blond hair and golden eyes, emanating a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation belonging to a second-level wizard, and with a handsome appearance like the sun god.
His eyes were filled with excitement as he opened his arms to Bennigo from afar, uttering incoherent words.
"I can hardly believe it, it's you! You've really come back, Brother Benny."
"Nono. Long time no see."
Bennigo saw the young man appear, a smile appeared on his face, and the two gently embraced in mid-air outside the floating island.
"Brother Benny, you..."
After releasing Bennigo, the young man, known as Nono, noticed the fluctuations in his aura and frowned. "Has his strength really declined so much? He can't even retain the strength of level two."
"That's how the Soul Sickness is; if you can't find a solution, it can only continue to decay."
Bennigo said calmly, "But I've already found it."
"It's so good that you're back now!"
Before Bennigo could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the young man's excited words.
"Brother Benny, you probably don't know this."
Recently, two Nefa Key have appeared, finally giving the Ancient Wizard Force, the Mirror Garden, a relic space left behind in our area a chance to be fully opened.
I have received definite information that, in order to address this matter, the major ring masters will also be awakening one after another.
This is your best chance to rise again. If you can find the potion to heal your soul wounds within the Court of Realms, you will not only return to your peak, but you may even rise to a higher position than before."
Bennigo's eyes were slightly touched by the young man's words, but he quickly regained his composure.
He shook his head and said, "Nono, actually, I came here this time to ask you for a favor."
"What is it, Brother Benny?"
The young man replied seriously, "There's no need for you to be polite to me regarding our relationship. Just do what I can."
"It's nothing really."
Bennigo took a Communication Stone from his Storage Waist Pouch and handed it to the young man.
"I plan to leave the Arcane Circle soon, but there is someone in the Arcane Circle, and I hope you can take care of him for me if you have the opportunity."
You should know about those people Lanny. I don't want him to be targeted unjustly because of me.
Bennigo spoke coldly, and the young man nodded solemnly, but soon his face showed an expression of great regret and disappointment.
"Brother Benny, are you... really sure you've decided to leave?"
"Yes, Nono."
Bennigo spoke softly, embracing the young man again like an older brother, and gently patting his back. "Let's meet again sometime."
Please.
The young man watched Bennigo turn and leave with reluctance until the other's figure completely disappeared from sight.
Then, the expression on his face gradually returned to calm, even indifference.
"The genius who broke the record for the fastest advancement to the Third Ring, hailed as the most likely to reach the top and be crowned with the seventh ring."
The young man looked at the Communication Stone in his hand and muttered to himself, "It used to be so radiant, so unstoppable. How did it end up like a pathetic, stray dog?"
The young man shook his head slightly, crushing the Communication Stone in his hand into powder, which he then scattered into the air.
"Hall of Inheritance"
Ronan stood in front of a beautiful stone palace, hesitated for a moment, and then prepared to go inside.
At that moment, a voice rang in his ear.
"You joined the Arcane Circle not because you're planning to switch to earth-based magic, but because you're thinking of becoming an earth-based wizard?"
"What's the meaning?"
Ronan turned his head at the sound and saw Bennigo standing not far away, a pipe in his mouth.
"This is the place where the [Elemental Magic Ring] is passed down."
The Seventh Magic Ring's [Elemental Magic Ring] inheritance is specifically for amplifying earth-based spells... You didn't even understand that before blindly entering the Seventh Magic Ring?
Bennigo looked at Ronan with a slightly strange expression.
Ronan paused for a moment before replying, "This is the first time I've ever heard of the Silver Magic Ring, besides the core [Silverization] rune and Metal Element Spell Inheritance, also including the [Elemental Magic Ring] tradition."
"Do you think the last two words of 'Silver Magic Ring' were just added for the sake of easier pronunciation?"
Bennigo, looking speechless, took a drag of his cigarette and explained, "Actually, the Arcane Circle was originally just Arcane Circle; the word 'Silver' was added later."
Ronan was taken aback.
"... The most powerful Arcane Circle is the [Elemental Magic Ring] rune inheritance, which corresponds to seven different elements. However, this inheritance has been divided into seven parts, each held by one of the seven ring masters."
The split-up [Elemental Magic Ring], with its single-elemental inheritance, was less powerful than the later-obtained Metal Element [Silverization] rune inheritance. As a result, Metal Element wizards gradually became the mainstream within the Arcane Circle, and silver became a new hallmark even before the Arcane Circle itself.
"You have a great talent for ice magic, and you even grasped the concept of a magic domain quite early on. If you don't plan to switch to another magic path in the future, the Fourth Magic Ring is actually your best destiny."
Bennigo began to recount his story in detail.
This was the first time Ronan had learned of these secrets, or perhaps they weren't secrets at all, but simply a matter of his lack of access to information.
What is the effect of a single-elemental [Elemental Magic Ring] seal?
Ronan asked.
"The casting effect of single-element spells is doubled."
Bennigo calmly stated, "If all seven elemental inheritances are gathered and combined to form the complete [Omnipotent Magic Ring] seal, its effect will be a seven-fold amplification of all elemental spells!"
[Omnipotent Magic Ring]... Spell effects increased sevenfold?!
Ronan was slightly shaken, and almost blurted out, "Then why split the talisman? We could have had a much more powerful inheritance!"
"Because."
Bennigo looked into his eyes, gently exhaled a smoke ring, and said calmly, "No one can withstand the omnipotent amplification of this sevenfold effect."
The massive energy particle flow, exceeding seven times the normal level, was a terrifying impact that no wizard's body could withstand.
Even the seven Ring Lords who stepped halfway out of the mist and reached out to touch the Dawn could not do so.
Before the spell could even be completed, he was [Annihilation] and died.
"Well"
Ronan was stunned, never expecting it to be for this reason.
So, who exactly thinks that wizards only need to pursue the immortality of the soul?
With a weak physical body, even a powerful inheritance placed before you is difficult to grasp.
