The First Talent Brand Is Born!

The year 1148 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Flowers.

Ancient Saint Plane, Emperor Palace.

"Haha, it's done!"

From the mountains and forests came Levi's triumphant laughter.

He rose up from the ground and shattered the earth.

A dazzling array of colors shone from his body, and layers of armor appeared.

Golden Scales, Golden Wizard Body, Cold Wood Body, Heavy Water Barrier, Earth Dragon Barrier, Golden Snake Dharma Image, Red Emperor Dharma Image, Golden Dragon Celestial Shield! Beyond these eight layers of protection.

Countless pebbles and clods of earth converged on Levi, enveloping him high in the sky!

In the blink of an eye.

A yellowish-brown sphere about ten feet in diameter took shape.

The sphere is made up of layers of compressed and solidified soil and rocks.

With the blessing of magic, it is even harder than Sun Gold.

"Burst."

Levi, sealed within the earth and rocks, murmured softly.

In an instant, the earthen-yellow sphere exploded.

The entire area within a radius of several miles was affected by the blast of flying rocks.

This power looks quite intimidating.

"Ninth Layer of protection, Fourth Ring Spell: Earth Explosion Barrier!"

Levi ——————

Earth Explosion Barrier: Ninth Rank (1/150,000).

Levi removed his protective gear and breathed a sigh of relief.

Before the great battle with Ghost Mistress, Levi began preparing his Fourth Ring Protective Force Field.

However, the research has not been successful until now. Almost two years have passed since Ghost Mistress left, and his Fourth Ring Protective Force Field has finally arrived.

In that great battle, he, Fourth Ring Wizard, was severely injured by a level five Scythe Demon Spirit who "crossed boundaries".

This made him realize:

The nail polish I made myself still wasn't enough!

So he began to study his Fourth Ring's Protective Force Field in a very busy manner.

For his Third Ring Protective Force Field, he chose a fusion of Ocean Faction; for his Fourth Ring field, he chose Earth Faction.

Of course, in terms of naming, he continued the "barrier" naming method of the Third Ring.

It was named "Earth Explosion Barrier".

It's called "Earth Explosion" because this barrier can actually... explode.

In other words, this is both a defensive spell and an area-of-effect attack spell.

In terms of protective strength, the current Ninth Rank Earth Explosion Barrier is on par with the Ninth Rank Perfect Heavy Water Barrier.

As a top-tier Fourth Ring spell developed by Levi, the Earth Explosion Barrier can be cultivated up to the Eleventh-Order Limit.

Once the Earth Explosion Barrier is fully perfected, its final defensive power should be no less than his fully perfected Third Ring talent, Earth Dragon Barrier.

Levi's mental strength is now 270 points, only halfway to the perfect level.

In terms of Art Power, it has reached 13,500 points.

He took out the "Fire Ouroboros".

"When I first entered the Fourth Ring, my Art Power was insufficient to support the use of teleportation spells. Let's see if it's still possible."

Triss said that the Ouroboros Ring was the most powerful thing.

It is neither an inherent attack spell nor a defensive spell.

It is a rare teleportation spell.

This is why it is a top-grade Fifth Ring Wizard Artifact.

Under normal circumstances.

Only Primal Soul Wizard can use spells similar to "shrinking the earth to an inch" or "short-distance spatial teleportation".

Levi found a place with a wide view.

This teleportation, compared to the spatial teleportation of the Primal Soul Wizard, has a annoying aspect: it must be within the field of vision.

Therefore, the use of this magical artifact was also limited in scope.

This field of vision refers to the conventional field of vision, excluding spells such as using mental power to perceive or extraordinary clairvoyance.

The teleportation point and Levi must be in a straight line, and there must be nothing in between that obstructs his view.

The maximum teleportation distance is 1000 li. Within this range, the farther you can see, the farther the teleportation will go.

Levi went up to the sky, where he could see the farthest.

Ordinary people with normal vision can see dozens of miles away without any obstruction.

With his current eyesight, he can see thousands of miles away.

Of course, this only means that we can "see" it, not that we can "see clearly" every blade of grass and every tree thousands of miles away.

However, it doesn't affect the transmission.

Levi chanted the incantation.

His Art Power was instantly drained, leaving him completely empty.

The next moment, a blue portal of light appeared in front of him.

On the other side of the portal, a cliffside scene was revealed, with a crooked tree on the cliff.

Levi stepped inside, and the portal vanished instantly.

After the world spun around, he had already traveled a thousand miles.

When it reappeared, it had already walked out of the blue light gate on the cliff. The place that Levi had just seen was this place.

"I see... If used well, this is a deadly weapon and a divine escape technique. No one below the Origin Soul can catch me."

Levi was very satisfied.

Of course, with his current Art Power, teleporting there means he will no longer be able to use other spells.

Fortunately, he still had Knight skills; otherwise, he would have just been sent to his death.

When chasing someone, he can appear behind the wizard with a single "flash." Under the Annihilation Sword Qi, who can stand against him?

"Not bad, another trump card."

Levi put away the Ouroboros Ring and flew all the way to the Twilight Temple.

The Temple is now located in what was once Black Pattern City.

These years.

With the help of the Ancient Dragon Empire, the Temple was quickly built.

The Temple is aloof and not subject to the jurisdiction of the Ancient Dragon Empire.

Similarly, the Temple cannot interfere in the affairs of the Ancient Dragon Empire.

Both were directly under the jurisdiction of Levi.

It relies on the relatively abundant elemental power of the Ancient Saint Plane.

Andrew is now at the pinnacle of Intermediate Wizard Apprentice.

Before long, he will become High-Grade Wizard Apprentice.

Levi estimated that Andrew still had a good chance of becoming First-Circle Wizard before he turned forty.

After all, he is a one-in-a-million Child of Element, something even Levi could only envy.

As the Child of Element, he also has the abundant resources of the Temple and the occasional guidance from Levi.

If Andrew cannot become Third-Ring Wizard before he turns one hundred, it would be a waste of his talent.

When Levi first entered the Endless Sea...

He has no talent, no resources, and no connections.

He had nothing but the Knight's skills and Proficiency Panel, along with his caution and prudence, and worked his way up step by step to where he is now. It was truly not easy!

Upon seeing Levi arrive, the Divine Light Knight rushed over.

"Commander."

Where is Dinos?

"He has gone into seclusion, preparing to advance to the Blood Source Realm."

"Knew."

Levi had originally wanted to see the progress of Dinos's Bloodline Runes research, but since he was in seclusion, they could talk about it later.

The first batch of Knight who joined the Knight Order have gradually reached the level of third-level Knight.

at the same time.

In recent years, a new batch of promising talents have also been stuck at the threshold of becoming Blood Awakened Knight.

Perhaps in the near future, several Blood Awakened Knight will emerge from among these people.

This way, we can gather all eighteen Round Table Knight sooner.

Seven days later.

Dinos successfully advanced to the Blood Source Realm.

He felt the abundant blood energy within his body, and the golden Golden Lion blood energy circulated within him, making him resemble Lion King.

Blood and qi formed a magnificent Golden Lion's mane that spread across his neck, flowing behind him like long hair.

"This is the Bloodline! This powerful force is completely different from anything I've experienced before. It's so powerful, so cool!"

Dinos let out a long roar that pierced through the clouds and split rocks.

His blood essence transformed into golden wings, and he arrived at the Hall of Ultimate Path where Levi was located.

"Commander, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting," Dinos said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Andrew arrived at the main hall.

"The two of you will be primarily responsible for the research on Bloodline Runes and Talent Imprint. Let's have a quick meeting so you can share your research progress and any questions you may have," Levi said.

"I'll go first, since Andrew is mainly responsible for organizing and deciphering the [Shield Defense Runes], which are primarily defensive, while I'll be responsible for the [Sword Battle Runes], which are primarily offensive."

This is a beginner's template for Sword Battle Runes that I compiled.

I feel that if I have more time, I might be able to try to create some "Talent Imprint" that are similar to wizarding magic.

It may not have much practical value, but as the starting point of a system, it should offer some Talent Imprint later on.

Dinos handed over a book, which Levi glanced at and nodded repeatedly.

"That's good. Let's start by focusing our research on shield defense and sword fighting. If successful, we can gradually expand it to the other four major areas."

Andrew said, "My situation is similar to that of Senior Dinos, but I did a small experiment yesterday and made some discoveries."

He became somewhat agitated as he spoke.

"Tell me about it," Levi said with a smile.

Andrew took a deep breath and lifted the armor off his right arm.

On his forearm, there were blood-red lines.

These patterns intersect like a circuit board, and there are nodes on them, making them look very complex.

Ultimately, all the patterns combined to form a rather abstract dragon design.

This is the Iron Dragon, a symbol of the Andrew Breathing Technique.

The Iron Dragon's wings are crossed, resembling a tattoo or body art, etched on Andrew's forearm.

Andrew smiled slightly, his face bulging with veins, Bloodline Seed within his body was activated with a roar! Streams of blood energy flowed through his blood vessels, from his limbs and bones, continuously surging into his right arm, and then appearing on the Iron Dragon tattoo on his forearm.

Upon closer inspection, the Iron Dragon tattoo is not a simple two-dimensional object.

The blood-red patterns that make up his design are connected to the blood vessels throughout Andrew's body and to the bloodline of the Iron Dragon Seed in his heart.

"Iron Dragon Arm Shield Imprint!"

Andrew clenched his right arm tightly.

As the veins on his right arm bulged, a surge of power erupted from the Iron Dragon tattoo on his forearm.

Then, a phantom of a shield gleaming with metallic luster appeared on Andrew's right arm.

On the arm shield, rusty Bloodline Runes formed an Iron Dragon with crossed wings, protecting his body! Andrew drew his longsword in his left hand and unleashed a burst of power.

Golden Cross Slash, aimed at the right arm!

He is now Great Knight, and with this sword strike, he can cleave through the large shields of mortals.

Boom! Accompanied by the sound of a collision.

Andrew's longsword was knocked away.

The phantom of the Iron Dragon Arm Shield trembled slightly and cracks appeared, but it did not break apart.

Upon seeing this, Levi's eyes lit up.

Andrew removed the phantom of the arm shield he had just created, his face pale and bloodless.

This is a sign of qi and blood deficiency. Levi gave Andrew some of the qi and blood replenishing medicines he had developed.

"Not bad, not bad, how did you find this?" Levi asked curiously.

Although the tattoo was too simple and crude, it was close to the Talent Imprint he envisioned.

Its power is no less than that of a wizard's magic tricks.

So he was somewhat surprised.

"For the past few days, I have been racking my brains about how to combine the deciphered Bloodline Runes into Talent Imprint mark that can give birth to extraordinary power."

I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't come up with any solution. My knowledge was too limited, and my understanding was too shallow to grasp such a complex level... so I went to sleep.

I hadn't slept in a long time because I was researching Bloodline Runes, so I slept for seven days and seven nights, and even had dreams for the first time in a long time.

In my dream, I seemed to see a rusty Iron Dragon with crossed wings! On Iron Dragon body, there appeared to be many points of light, flashing rhythmically and regularly... like the nodes of a wizard's Spell Model, and the spell runes flashing at those nodes! At that moment, a bold idea suddenly occurred to me. After waking up, I wrote it down.

I tried to Bloodline Runes according to the shape, posture, and light spots of the Iron Dragon in my dream, and then used blood energy as fuel and the Bloodline Seed as the driving core. A very simple extraordinary ability was born.

This extraordinary ability is only as powerful as a minor wizard's trick, and is not worth mentioning.

However, I think that as we decipher more and more Shield Defense Runes, we should continuously optimize them.

Ultimately, this extraordinary ability will be no less powerful than a wizard's formal spells.

Of course, given the Great Knight's level of blood energy, it would be difficult for him to unleash such a complex ability. Forcing it might deplete his bloodline.

Therefore, my next plan is to advance to Formal Wizard within ten years and become Blood Awakened Knight within fifteen years.

I believe that the Talent Imprint path you described, Commander, is entirely feasible!

Andrew spoke with great passion, his eyes shining brightly! Levi thought to himself.

Are you Mendeleev, Descartes, or Kekulé reincarnated?

How can research discoveries be made in dreams? Could it be that Iron Dragon appeared to you in a dream? Actually, Levi had thought of something similar before, like Andrew.

More than a hundred years ago, when Levi came into contact with the first magic trick, the "Insect Control Art," he encountered Spell Model.

He discovered that the nodes of the wizard's Spell Model and the little figure pattern on the Knight's Breathing Technique Inheritance Diagram were remarkably similar! The so-called Knight's Breathing Technique practice is also a process of enhancing physical fitness and tempering blood vessels by following specific postures, movements, and breathing rhythms, supplemented by Secret Medicine.

Breathing Technique are practiced by having Knight imitate those colossal beasts, acquire their bloodline power, and lay a solid foundation.

To unleash the power of these bloodlines, one can extend abilities similar to innate spells onto the [Foundation].

That would definitely require imitating real behemoths, observing their every move, their posture and actions when releasing their innate abilities, and the corresponding points of force exertion.

Then, this pattern is expressed in the form of Talent Imprint.

In this way, the Knight also possesses his own innate ability! Just like in the myths and legends of some civilizations, there are always some extraordinary mortals who, upon observing the "battles of divine beasts" or "fights of gods," suddenly have an epiphany and comprehend some incredible supernatural power.

In Levi's view, Andrew's experience was similar to an "epiphany".

It's something that can only be encountered by chance.

This young man is definitely a chosen one!

Being Child of Element is one thing, but the Knight's comprehension is also so high.

Levi increasingly realized that he had struck gold!

Although Levi put forward many preliminary basic theories and ideas.

However, because he was too busy, he basically did not participate much in the subsequent work of deciphering Bloodline Runes and Talent Imprint.

He didn't expect Andrew to be able to get it done so quickly.

His original intention in establishing the Twilight Temple was actually for this day.

He created a safe and stable environment for the Temple to exist. In return, the Temple reciprocated by sharing the fruits of their collective wisdom.

It now appears that this model is gradually proving effective.

All the hard work I put into establishing this century-old Temple has finally come to fruition; all my previous efforts have not been in vain!

However, one Andrew is not enough; he needs more talents like him! Talents!

It is the core of any force's ability to thrive!

Take the Wizard Civilization as an example: Klein, who quantified spiritual power and Art Power; Rowling, who quantified bloodline; Castro, who quantified combat; Gargamel, the master of Sealing Art; Franken, the progenitor of Monster Studies...

Even under Sauron's glory, these beings still shine with their own light!

Civilization progresses only when stars shine brightly! Sauron, so powerful that he could slay gods, still had eighteen companions from different paths—this is the same principle!

The right way is to pool our wisdom and efforts and learn from each other.

Reality isn't about a protagonist who's invincible, even in a supernatural world, even if there are real gods here.

No one is omniscient, omnipotent, or perfect.

As the wizard said: Truth can only be approached infinitely, but can never be reached!

At this moment, Levi understood why countries in his previous life were so eager for truly talented people.

Andrew is a natural-born researcher.

It's not just because of his talent, but because of his unwavering dedication to this path!

"Well done, but you have to be careful with this kind of experiment. Using your own body to experiment can be fatal if you make a mistake," Levi warned.

"Thank you for your concern, Commander," Andrew said quickly.

Dinos was filled with emotion. "Is this what genius is? Is this what the Child of Element is?"

He had a feeling that the new generation was pushing the old generation aside, and the old generation was about to be washed away on the beach.

Andrew was flattered and said, "If the leader hadn't written down all the basic theories of those Bloodline Runes, and if it weren't for the improvements and additions by all the seniors, I wouldn't have been able to research them... To put it bluntly, I was just lucky to receive guidance in a dream."

"Don't be modest, wait for the captain to reward you. From now on, the research on this Talent Imprint project will depend on you!" Dinos patted Andrew's shoulder hard.

"This is indeed a major breakthrough. Here's what we'll do: from now on, you can freely access the knowledge below level three on the first two levels of the Knowledge Temple."

I hope this inspires you, Andrew. Make the most of your strengths; your future is bright! "Levi said.

What you think about during the day, you dream about at night.

Even if it was a dream, Andrew must have put a lot of thought into discovering this; it wasn't that simple.

"Once you become Formal Wizard, go to the Dawn Temple to obtain a Second Ring wizard artifact for protection," Levi added after thinking for a moment.

"Thank you, Commander."

After leaving the Hall of Ultimate Path, Levi returned to the Emperor Palace and took out Andrew's research notes to examine them.

I benefited greatly from reading it.

With Levi's knowledge and level of understanding, he already had some ideas about the construction of his own Talent Imprint, but he also needed time to verify them.

For a powerhouse of his caliber, those simple Talent Imprint are like the special effects of early Breathing Technique —most of them are useless.

However, if we can research some complex Talent Imprint...

Perhaps it can complement one's innate magical abilities.

In the future, when my vision is broad enough, my knowledge is extensive enough, and the panel's evolution is sufficiently perfect.

He felt that innate spells and Talent Imprint could even be integrated.

He bridged the gap between the ways of wizards and the ways of Knight, thus forging his own unique path.

His reason for creating the "Dragon" series of his innate magic was also based on this consideration.

Of course, this is just speculation.

He estimated that at least after the Legendary Wizard, the "merger of wizards and knights" could begin! Half a year passed like sand slipping through his fingers and being blown away by the wind.

The end of the year, the Month of the North Wind.

After that epiphany, I figured out a simple Talent Imprint.

Andrew made no new discoveries; these things can't be forced.

Extraordinary research is not achieved overnight.

At least since Andrew created the talent ability [Iron Dragon Arm Shield].

The Knight system has also expanded its extraordinary realm.

It's no longer just about being tough and strong, and charging in with brute force.

Levi also offered Andrew a new idea.

That is to observe some similar creatures and observe the release of their innate abilities.

For example, the Ironclad Lizard, First Ring extraordinary creature, contains the bloodline of the Iron Dragon.

Its abilities must be similar to those of the Iron Dragon.

By observing more closely, one may gain insights and make progress.

As for the armored lizards, there is a small population of them in the Mountain and Sea Beast Garden behind Emperor Liwei's palace, which he released there.

He immediately had one sent to Andrew.

In this way.

In the Ancient Saint Plane, the prototype of a perfect extraordinary civilization operating system has been established.

The Ancient Dragon Empire maintains order and, as Levi's right-hand man, collects resources within the plane for the operation of civilization and Levi's cultivation.

The Twilight Temple, on the other hand, acts as researchers, constantly coming up with more and more ideas about Knight, serving as Levi's think tank.

At the same time, another institution also needs to be established.

That is the department specifically responsible for the cultivation and propagation of extraordinary organisms.

Based on a small plane, establish a base of extraordinary creatures with a rich population, covering the vast majority of Knight' training.

These extraordinary creatures can provide both cultivation Secret Medicine and advancement Secret Medicine.

At the same time, having the Knight seriously study extraordinary creatures might even allow them to create Talent Imprint.

This is the way of bloodline: coming from bloodline and returning to bloodline.

When you're stuck for ideas, take a stroll through the Mountains and Seas Beast Garden; it might just open up a new path.

Levi himself was already a master of extraordinary biology.

Therefore, he plans to find people with talent and interest in this area in the future to pass on his knowledge.

He can't waste all his energy on this kind of thing.

He needs talent from all fields and sectors.

The first day of the Month of Origin in the year 1149 of the Holy Radiance Calendar.

The 49th Round Table Conference of the Twilight Knight Order.

At the meeting, a young man appeared; it was Andrew.

Although Andrew did not reach the level of Blood Awakened Knight.

However, given his talent, Levi would definitely give him special treatment.

In this way, if Andrew makes any new discoveries, he can contact Levi at any time.

At the meeting, Andrew shared the results of his Talent Imprint with the other senior colleagues.

These old fellows all turned their heads in surprise, gasped, and exclaimed that it was terrifying.

At the same time, they also felt the pressure from their juniors.

They all mustered their energy and strived to be the best, determined not to be outdone by the younger generation.

During the meeting, the Black Knight stated that he had now reached the pinnacle of High-Grade Wizard Apprentice.

In a little while, he will be able to become a true wizard.

As for the advancement potions and meditation resources for the First Ring, he had already prepared them with his strength as a third-level Knight.

With Knight leading the way and resources piling up, wizards' training won't be too slow.

At the end of the meeting, the Hogg Knight in the Crimson Realm said:

"Commander, I've found a clue about Elemental Metal."

Three days ago, I attended an auction hosted by a Rogue Wizard from the Flame Mountain.

At the meeting, someone was selling [Black Flame Meteorite Iron], which is said to be a level 5 Elemental Metal produced in the Darkness Zone.

However, that thing was too expensive. A piece of ore the size of a human head could only be refined into a small piece of Black Flame Demon Iron, yet it was auctioned off for 60,000 Great Stone.

I couldn't afford it, but after the auction, I found a seller through the organizers.

I told him I knew a big customer, and if he still had any, I could help you make connections.

"When do you have time? You could come to the Crimson Realm. Judging from that man's tone, he probably owns more than one of those things."

Levi nodded and said:

"Well done, Hogg. With your abilities, it's best not to participate in bidding for valuable items."

The Wizard World is in chaos now, with evil forces taking advantage of various gatherings to commit unjust robberies.

"Tell me your coordinates, and I'll make some time to go to the Crimson Realm. I'll personally meet with that wizard."

Black Flame Demon Iron is similar to Blood Demon Crystal.

These are special minerals formed by chance after some powerful creatures from the Darkness Zone perished.

Its fire element properties are also quite unique, and it is not quite the same as the Skyfire Meteorite Iron.

Levi felt that his Death Ash Breathing Technique and this Black Flame Demon Iron were quite compatible.

However, since the Death Ash Breathing Technique is a physical type, Levi intends to forge a divine weapon of the Knight Armor type, or rather... divine armor! This can be considered quite extravagant. For example, a level 5 Elemental Metal like Black Flame Demon Iron can be added to a small piece when a wizard is forging a weapon, and that piece can be used to forge Fourth Ring wizard weapon.

The amount of Black Flame Demon Iron needed to forge a single piece of Knight Armor could be as high as a million Great Stone just for the raw materials alone.

Fortunately, Levi is now wealthy, so as long as the person has the money, he's not worried about not being able to afford it.

After crafting the divine weapon for the Death Ash Breathing Technique and collecting all four divine weapons, his strength increased significantly.

After the meeting.

Levi left the Ancient Saint Plane and flew towards the Mortal World world.

During this time, he obtained information about the Wizard World through two means: messengers and the Rose Witch.

The Peacock Kingdom.

Flower City.

Shining Tavern.

The Rose Witch was dressed in her finest attire, as vibrant as fire.

Levi held a cup of Hundred Flower Fine Brew, took a sip, and found it spicy yet sweet, leaving a lingering aftertaste.

"I heard that the city lord of this Flower City is also named Levi..." The Rose Witch looked at Levi and smiled softly.

A thought struck Levi: it seemed the Rose Witch must know.

He himself was Lord Levi from a hundred years ago.

Although he did it very discreetly, the intelligence network of Shining Tavern and Rose Witch probably still found out.

However, Levi no longer cared about the exposure of this identity.

I was too weak in the past and was afraid of being targeted by the Holy Radiance Church, so I went into hiding.

Now, given his own strength, the fact that he doesn't actively cause trouble for the Church is already giving them face.

If the Church dares to provoke him, he will march straight to Mount Paradise!

Let's scatter the ashes of all the saints of the past! I, Master Li, have been lying low for over a hundred years; it's time for me to show off a bit!

He realized that the Church was just a paper tiger, only able to intimidate people by relying on the god behind it.

Many wizards abided by the agreement between Sauron and the gods, and did not cause trouble.

However, some unscrupulous wizards, such as that mysterious powerhouse who was only Fifth Ring wizard, dared to brazenly steal the Divine Statue of the Storm Emperor.

It's not unreasonable for me to go to Mount Paradise and steal a few Sealed Relic, is it?

By the way, the Van Helsing Family's Rune Seal lineage is still in Mount Paradise.

As a collector, Levi would have to get it back sooner or later.

Could it be that for such a trivial matter, the gods would use their divine power to unleash Divine Punishment or send angels to deal with them?

If the gods had so much free time, the "North Wind War," which has lasted for years and could threaten the very foundation of the Church's faith, should have ended long ago! But in reality, the Church has only managed to barely stop the Blue Frost Undead from moving south; it has not destroyed the Blue Frost Empire.

Although Levi did not know what the gods were doing in the Astral Realm.

However, from some events in the Mortal World and the Great Expedition, we can still glean some clues and draw a conclusion: the Astral Realm is definitely not peaceful and there is turmoil!

Composing himself, Levi smiled and said, "In this world, there are at least eight thousand, if not ten thousand, people named Levi."

"Haha, that's true. The reason I called you here is twofold: first, Ms. Triss has some things she wants to tell you, and second, we need to discuss the location of the House of Witches branch Wizard Tower," said the Rose Witch.

"Please speak, senior."

"Ms. Triss asked me to give you something."

As soon as the Rose Witch finished speaking, a fiery red rose suddenly bloomed on her chest, and in the center of the rose was a small black tower.

"The Dark Ancient Tower Key?"

Levi was completely bewildered.

He already has two of these, and now he's got another one.

So, it turns out that Ms. Triss is still thinking about sending me to the Dark Ancient Tower.

She, as a mother, really went to great lengths for that boy, Ai Niya.

Levi was even a little Jealousy Ai Niya. Why didn't he have a mother like Triss, so he could sponge off his parents? "What are you standing there for? Take it. Triss went to a lot of trouble to get this... By the way, she got this key through her own means without telling the House of Witches. Don't tell anyone either."

If the House of Witches asks, just say that you obtained the key by accident.

So, if you get anything good in the Dark Ancient Tower, it's all yours and you don't need to give it to the House of Witches, understand?

On this trip to the Dark Ancient Tower, Ms. Triss hopes that, within your capabilities, you will secretly help Ai Niya should Ai Niya fall into danger.

If not, just ignore it.

Don't mention this to Ai Niya. If Ai Niya asks, just say it was out of friendship that you helped out, and don't mention Ms. Triss.

"Alas, Ms. Triss has truly gone to great lengths for this son."

Levi put away the key and said with a wry smile, "Okay, I understand. Parents always have the same heart. I'm friends with Ai Niya. If he's in trouble, I won't stand by and watch him die within my power!"

Levi's words came from the bottom of his heart, and were not because of the Ancient Tower Key.

Levi has a high opinion of Ai Niya's character after all these years of getting to know her.

Quiet and reserved, secretly passionate yet reliable, even somewhat naive and kind.

In the Dark Ancient Tower, one could indeed be deceived by some people with ulterior motives.

Moreover, after saving Ai Niya, he could still make Triss owe him a favor.

The favor of a noble, beautiful, and kind-hearted Primal Soul Wizard is priceless!

"Oh, right, Ms. Triss also mentioned that the Dark Ancient Tower will probably open within fifteen years. Remember to refine the Dark Ancient Tower; just drip your blood on it."

When it opens, you will be automatically transported to the first floor of the Dark Ancient Tower.

She also asked me to give you a portion of the map of the Dark Ancient Tower.

"Then you can go treasure hunting in these locations on the map. The chances of finding something are higher, and the danger is lower. Ai Niya and the House of Witches team are basically located there too."

"Thank you, Ms. Triss, you are so thoughtful!" Levi exclaimed.

Next, he discussed the location of the House of Witches branch with the Rose Witch.

Ultimately, they settled on Overseas Land.

Firstly, the water elemental power is more concentrated in Overseas Land, making them suitable for cultivation.

Secondly, Overseas Land can help avoid some meaningless disputes.

that's all.

The location of the House of Witches branch was chosen on an Nameless Island.

"It's not too far from the mainland, which is good."

Levi and the Rose Witch stood on the island talking.

"By the way, Levi, did you know that Ghost Mistress is dead?" The Rose Witch looked at Levi meaningfully.

"I know, the penalty area was leveled, looks like they died a horrible death," Levi said calmly.

The Rose Witch smiled meaningfully and said, "I wonder who this person is, who so easily accomplished what I've always wanted to do but never dared to do... I really wish I had a chance to pay them a visit."

"Me too."

"However, some time ago, I discovered that Ghost Mistress's senior sister, Tyrannical Lady, has come to the Mortal World. She is even more perverted and more powerful than Ghost Mistress." The Rose Witch seemed somewhat wary when this person was mentioned.

Levi's heart stirred slightly.

The Tyrannical Lady, the most powerful of the three disciples of the Banshee of Pain.

It seems I should stay home as much as possible during this time. The Rose Witch already knows that she was the one who dealt with Ghost Mistress.

Therefore, Levi could sense that since Ghost Mistress's death, her attitude towards him had become better than before.

They now completely regard Levi as an equal.

Because the Rose Witch and the Ghost Mistress are roughly equal in strength, and they have fought each other before, with neither gaining the upper hand.

In the Wizard World, the strong are always respected.

Whether it's due to Levi's personal abilities or the mysterious organization behind him, it's all thanks to Levi's skills.

After bidding farewell to the Rose Witch, Levi quickly took the key to the Ancient Tower and returned to the Ancient Saint Plane.

We arrived at the Emperor Palace's treasury.

He stared at the three keys side by side, his heart filled with complex emotions. By some twist of fate, he now had three keys.

He's now considering whether or not to sell one.

He kept one for himself and one for Leon as a backup. As for the other one, he couldn't think of anyone to give it to; it seemed there was no suitable candidate.

"Never mind, I'll just take it one step at a time. If there isn't a suitable candidate before the Ancient Tower opens, I'll sell this to the Wizard World for money."

In the days that followed, Levi began preparing for his journey to the Crimson Realm.

He had Hogg investigate, and it turned out that the owner of the ore was a Fourth Ring Wizard.

With my own strength, I should be able to control the situation and prevent being killed and robbed.

However, he still needs to be careful, since his weapon crafting skills are not far from the Fourth Ring level.

Before setting off, he began to focus on honing his weapon crafting skills so he could upgrade Tyrant III later.

Three months have passed quietly.

The Month of Green Grass, a season when grass grows and orioles fly.

In the Ancient Saint Plane, within the Mountains and Seas Beast Garden, it is once again the season for extraordinary creatures to breed and mate.

On this day, a deafening roar echoed through the mountains and forests.

"It seems that another of the extraordinary creatures that were previously allowed to roam freely has advanced in rank."

Levi sent people to investigate.

It turned out to be the Iron Wing Griffin, the Second Ring creature I obtained early on. It had actually advanced to the Third Ring Silver Wing Griffin Lord during this time.

The zoo now houses several griffins, all of which Levi acquired from the Black Wizard over the years.

They have even begun to reproduce.

Levi felt that they should wait until the population had multiplied and grown stronger.

The powerful figures from the Ancient Dragon Empire and the Temple might be able to assemble a "Griffin Legion".

Of course, this vibrant spring is what makes Levi happiest.

His weapon crafting skills had also been improved to the Fourth Ring level.

Levi ——————

Refinement: Seventh Rank (1/50000), Special Effect: Heart of Artifacts.

Actually, compared to magic arrays and Potion Making...

Levi spent very little effort on weapon crafting.

Firstly, the effect of refining artifacts is not as good as the previous two, and secondly, he himself does not use witch artifacts much, but only creates Alchemy creatures.

However, it possesses the special effect of "Heart of Artifacts".

Once you get into this skill, things go smoothly.

"After reaching the Fourth Ring, we can create the Alchemy creature Skywalker. In the future, we can take it to the Dark Ancient Tower and wreak havoc!"

Levi felt a little excited.

He searched the treasure vault and found two pieces of Elemental Metal.

For crafting Skywalker, the metal Sun Gold is no longer sufficient.

As luck would have it, he obtained two pieces of level-three Elemental Metal from some unknown Black Wizard.

This level of Elemental Metal is not qualified to be Levi's divine weapon, but it is more than enough to forge the Skywalker.

One [Thunder Flow Stone], one [Earth Fire Fine Iron].

These two pieces together, along with some Sun Gold, are just enough to create Skywalker.

Levi seized the opportunity and began working in the Alchemy workshop.
