Master Hamir
Daniel Drumm, as Mystic Arts Master, is well aware of the difficulty in shaking the Mirror Dimension.
He was also studying advanced esoteric techniques related to the Mirror Dimension.
However, he discovered that he had no way to control the operation of the Mirror Dimension.
As for...
Arranging the spatial layout of Mirror Dimension according to one's own ideas is no easy task!
Throughout the entirety of Kamar-Taj, only the Sorcerer Supreme could accomplish this!
Without Sling Ring and without understanding the basic concepts of spatial magic, it's almost impossible to escape the seal!
However.
He never dreamed that the Acting Sorcerer Supreme in front of him, Chen Ji, who had only recently become the Guardian Mage, had also mastered the Mirror Dimension!
And they used it with incredible skill!
This... is simply unbelievable.
Completely defies common sense!
"Master Drumm."
"What should be done with this esteemed Priest of Reward and Punishment?"
"Besides..."
"You haven't seen the <Ironbound Book of the Eye Demon>, have you?"
A slight smile appeared on Chen Ji's lips.
Immediately, they confiscated the "Ironbound Book of the Eye Demon"!
All the descriptive terms on the Weird Squid have turned Pink Entry!
This made Chen Ji extremely happy!
Turn out to be...
The strange creatures do not prevent Pink Entry from dropping.
Instead, they must be summoned to the real world!
[Pink Entry found, extract?]
"Extract!"
Chen Ji's eyes were filled with anticipation.
In an instant.
The Weird Squid's corpse immediately glowed with four beams of light, which surged into its body.
[Pink Entry]
[ From the From the Jungle], [Completely Insane], [Wrath of the Ancient Beast], [Killing Makes Me Stronger], [Monster in Human Skin], [Ancient Demon’s Blessing].
[Venom Spray], [Multiple Mimicry], [Pierce Metal and Shatter Stone], [Ancient Demon’s Creation].
Including the Luck Value gained from killing Bigfoot and Lidovich.
Chen Ji made a killing again!
But...
Because Daniel Drumm was present, he couldn't very well destroy the evidence and kill Aqimino along with the body.
It is believed that getting Aqimino to talk will be more helpful in uncovering the Blasphemy Cult's hideout.
But being able to capture the "Ironbound Book of the Eye Demon" was already a pleasant surprise!
"List..."
"Even a counterfeit of Blasphemy Cult's dark magic book carries the risk of tempting people to corruption. Are you sure you want to keep this book hidden away?"
Daniel Drumm forced a smile, but his face showed helplessness.
He certainly didn't want his best buddy, who had fought alongside him, to side with the Blasphemy Cult in the future!
"Master Drumm."
"Are you questioning the decisions made by the Acting Sorcerer Supreme?"
Chen Ji's face darkened.
He immediately invoked his identity Acting Sorcerer Supreme.
As the saying goes...
A higher-ranking official can have absolute power over a person.
Besides, he's not just one rank higher in rank!
In terms of seniority, title, strength, and methods, he is on par with the Ancient One!
The Ancient One drew upon the power of the Dark Dimension to secretly complete the Immortality Ritual.
And he... deciphered the Primal Runes of Asgard!
They have already gained the approval and support of the King of Gods!
Isn't it obvious which is better and which is worse?
"Yes, sir."
"I haven't seen any Ironhide Book."
Master Drumm breathed a sigh of relief.
He cannot break the rules.
Since Chen Ji has decided to keep the "Ironbound Book of the Eye Demon," he should take full responsibility for it!
That way, he can clear himself of any wrongdoing.
In any case, they are all orders from the Acting Sorcerer Supreme.
It has nothing to do with it.
"The Acting Sorcerer Supreme at Kamar-Taj..."
"How unconventional! Too bad you 'Fellowship..."
Aqimino sacrificed his life, almost completely exhausted, his eyes filled with admiration and hatred, before he breathed his last!
All the entries have turned Pink Entry!
"Dead?"
"The mortal body is indeed fragile."
Chen Ji shook his head.
Although he possessed Entry System and had long since transcended the mortal body, even at the [Omega-Level], he could not contend with Cosmic Celestial!
Once the Divine Awakening erupts, the entire Earth will fall apart, and all traces of civilization will cease to exist.
This will be an unbearable burden for him.
"It seems..."
"We need to communicate with the Ancient One."
Chen Ji sighed inwardly.
He then extracted all the Pink Entry.
[Occult Knowledge], [Beast Taming Master], [Ancient Demon’s Blessing].
He felt uneasy about losing 500 points of Luck Value.
If only I had known.
Why not just kill this Priest of Reward and Punishment Aqimino?
"List."
You deserve the most credit for this battle.
"Two of the four high priests of the Blasphemy Cult died at your hands."
"This is a tremendously joyous occasion for the entire Hidden World."
"But..."
"Try not to go out alone, and also pay attention to the safety of your family. The retaliation from the Blasphemy Cult is far more vicious than that from the Devil Cult!"
Master Daniel Drumm repeatedly emphasized this point.
This made Chen Ji frown.
"Please be mindful of your family's safety..."
Chen Ji had mixed feelings.
He has never met his parents in this life.
Once the location selection for the Rune Academy is finalized, I'll go visit my predecessor's parents.
Ultimately, one must fulfill one's filial duties on behalf of the deceased.
Otherwise, Chen Ji's conscience wouldn't allow it.
Let's go.
"I should return to Kamar-Taj and inform Master Hamir about the killing of the two high priests."
"Master Hamir, you will certainly be rewarded with corresponding sect merits and honors."
Daniel Drumm opened the Mystic Portal.
Then, he brought Aqimino's Scepter, along with fragments of Lidovich's and Bigfoot's corpses, to Kamar-Taj.
Inner courtyard.
Inside a simple and unadorned hall.
Master Hamir, with a sage-like air and thin cheeks, wearing reading glasses, was reviewing the ledgers.
The entire sect's food, clothing, supplies, battle losses, rewards, and allowances...
He was in charge of almost everything.
And the most prominent name on the ledger was none other than Chen Ji!
Chen Ji's alliance with Asgard and Kamar-Taj, sharing skills in each other's territories, has quietly reshaped the entire Hidden World, and will surely have far-reaching consequences!
This triggered an unprecedented butterfly effect.
However.
Master Hamir frowned, unable to put pen to paper for a long time.
How should merit be calculated?
Just then.
Chen Ji and Daniel Drumm, along with the spoils of war, also came before Master Hamir.
"List?"
"Daniel?"
"You... killed the Priest of Reward and Punishment?"
Master Hamir's eyes flickered.
He immediately recognized the scepter that Daniel Drumm had handed him.
Seem...
This scepter belongs to Aqimino, the Priest of Reward and Punishment in the Blasphemy Cult!
"That's right."
"The Blasphemy Cult has awakened Bigfoot in an attempt to harm the Acting Sorcerer Supreme."
"However, Chen killed two high priests in return. This is Aqimino's scepter, along with fragments of the body of the Priestess of Benevolence Lidovich, and a severed hand of Bigfoot."
Daniel Drumm recounted the story in detail.
Then, the corresponding symbol was handed out, which made Master Hamir's pupils shrink suddenly, and he was amazed!
They killed the two high priests in a counterattack?!
List...
They actually have this kind of strength?
He had never witnessed Chen Ji's life-or-death battles!
"I will take careful notes."
Master Hamir looked very solemn.
In another hour, the grand sect competition will begin!
Chen, Mordo, Kaecilius.
Three Mystic Arts Master competed on the same stage.
It has already spread throughout Kamar-Taj!
All the apprentice disciples and Guardian Mage eagerly awaited the chance to witness Chen Ji's prowess!
What merits does this Acting Sorcerer Supreme possess that makes him worthy of being appointed by Kamar-Taj to serve Acting Sorcerer Supreme?
You need to know.
There has never been Acting Sorcerer Supreme in Kamar-Taj, either in ancient or modern times!
The intense competition between sects has reached its peak, and the expectations of all Guardian Mage have surged to an unprecedented level.
Even when Chen Ji entered the inner courtyard, countless Guardian Mage watched him along the way, as if admiring an endangered and exotic animal.
This certainly lives up to the effect of the phrase "[Life Winner]".
[Life Winner] (Purple): Although you are ordinary now, you will eventually win the world's attention, captivate countless young men and women, and have power, wealth, and status. Those who are friends with you will also be blessed by God.
"The world is watching..."
How can I continue to keep a low profile?
Chen Ji immense pressure.
"List."
"This is your allowance."
"It includes rewards for killing the Stitch Monster, as well as the monthly salary of the Acting Sorcerer Supreme."
Master Hamir handed over ten Ancient Coins.
Until this moment.
Chen Ji then remembered to check the panel for Master Hamir's Entry Panel.
[Name]: Hamir
[Identity]: Head Butler
[Entry]: shrewd and calculating (green), an old horse still eager to run (green), treating everyone equally (green), farsighted (green).
[Skilled in Calculation] (Green): He is particularly good at calculation, has an extraordinary thinking ability, and can always easily solve mathematical problems. The ledgers he reviews are all error-free.
[Old Horse in Stable] (Green): Even though he was over fifty, Master Hamir did not slack off in the slightest. Even with his left hand severed at the wrist, it did not affect his ability to perform secret arts.
[Treat everyone equally] (Green): He is rigorous, fair and just by nature, follows the teachings of the Sorcerer Supreme, and is conscientious and dedicated to the logistics of this secluded sect.
[Foresight] (Green): In his position, he fulfills his duties. As the chief steward of Kamar-Taj, he is always able to foresee potential losses amidst a vast amount of complex information, nipping financial crises in the bud.
"The term 'Four Greens'?"
"It seems that being the head butler doesn't require extraordinary ability or courage."
Chen Ji took the Ancient Coins and muttered to himself.
He then bid farewell to Hamir and Master Drumm and went directly to the library in Kamar-Taj.
Now that he has discovered that the strange creature can be brought into the real world through a summoning ritual, he can achieve this.
Then he definitely needs to study the relevant books carefully!
