Chapter 269 - The Three Major Factions
Chapter 269: The Three Major Factions
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The process of simulating a Spell Model using Mind Power was a rather slow one. Merlin took two full days before he finally simulated Earth Veil’s Spell Model in his Awareness.
“Boom!”
The instant the Spell Model was simulated in his Awareness, Merlin felt a violent tremor in his mind. Large amounts of Earth Elements swarmed into his Awareness and were quickly turned into Magic Power by Earth Veil’s Spell Model.
“It’s finally done!”
Merlin let out a long breath. With the Matrix, he was very successful in creating Spell Models. Moreover, as long as his Mind Power was sufficient, it was completely safe to construct Spell Models.
Now, Merlin possessed two Second-level spells. After some time, as the Mind Power duplicate within the Bell Space constantly increased his Mind Power, Merlin hoped to successively construct other Second-level spells in a few months and ultimately become a Second-level Spell Caster.
It could be said that this was a terrifying pace of growth. After all, Merlin had only become a First-level Spell Caster not long ago. Compared to those who needed four or five years to become a Second-level Spell Caster, the possibility of Merlin becoming a Second-level Spell Caster in such a short time was considered a very rapid growth.
All of this was thanks to the Matrix. It aided Merlin in constructing stable Spell Models. Who knew how much time that had saved Merlin?
Earth Veil was successfully constructed but Merlin did not exit the room. Instead, he stayed inside. He still had to use elemental crystal stones to boost the transformation rate of Earth Veil’s Magic Power.
…
“Curse it all! Donaugh had joined Gray Wing Alliance. It’s harder for us to kill him now.”
A male Wizard with long brown hair over his shoulders spoke somewhat furiously.
Another female Wizard with a tall build and delicate features frowned as well. “Since Donaugh has joined Gray Wing Alliance, let’s join Fort Udon. I’ve heard that Fort Udon is the strongest faction on the Kurdmansla Islands! If we stay here on the Kurdmansla Islands, we’ll eventually have the chance to kill Donaugh!”
This female Wizard also wore an icy expression, clenching her teeth as she spoke.
This pair of Spell Casters, a man and a woman, had just entered the residence from outside and was walking as they conversed.
Hearing what the female Wizard said, a hint of hesitation flashed across the male Wizard’s face as if he wanted to say something but eventually stopped.
“Would that be easy? Although Fort Udon is the strongest faction on the Kurdmansla Islands, it’s no match for Wizard’s Tower and Gray Wing Alliance in terms of resources. What’s more, although Donaugh is despicable, his Spell Caster Quality is excellent. If he joined Gray Wing Alliance for a longer period, I’m afraid that he’ll be stronger than us. At that point, it would be harder for us to kill him…”
In the end, the male Wizard expressed the apprehensions that he felt. After the female Wizard heard what he said, she slowed down her steps and stopped, lowering her head in silence.
“Is there really no way?”
“What other way is there? We can only wait. We can’t join Gray Wing Alliance as we want to kill Donaugh and he wants to kill us. Hence, we can’t join Gray Wing Alliance as he did. As for Fort Udon, I hear that they’re very united. As long as one becomes a Wizard of Fort Udon, one need not be afraid of running into danger on the Kurdmansla Islands. It’s better if we join Fort Udon for now, and then decide what’s our next move.”
The male Wizard seemed to have made up his mind long ago.
“It looks like that’s all we can do…”
A pensive look hung over the female Wizard’s face as she appeared helpless. Just as they were about to choose a room, they seemed to discover something, and their faces revealed a slight shock.
“There’s someone in this room? Wasn’t it said that in recent times there isn’t anyone who wants to join Fort Udon? Why is there someone here?”
The couple had inquired about the situation in Fort Udon when they were outside, so generally, they were sure that no one was joining Fort Udon recently. Hence, there should only be the two of them here.
“Creak.”
Just as they were frozen in bewilderment, the door of the room slowly opened, and out came a young Spell Caster dressed in a black Wizard robe.
“You two Wizards are joining Fort Udon as well?”
The young Spell Caster looked toward the couple and asked with a smile.
“Hmm? May I ask who you are, Wizard?”
The male Wizard fixed a distrustful gaze on the young Spell Caster who suddenly appeared, his eyes filled with caution.
“You can call me Merlin. Like you, I’m a Spell Caster who wants to join Fort Udon!”
The young Spell Caster was Merlin. After he had successfully constructed his Second-level Spell, Earth Veil, he had been using elemental crystal stones to increase the transformation speed of Magic Power in Earth Veil’s Spell Model. It took him until now for Earth Veil’s Spell Model to have sufficient Magic Power.
After this, he only had to slowly accumulate Magic Power to fill up the Spell Model, and no longer needed to use elemental crystal stones as replenishment.
Merlin overheard the conversation between these two Spell Casters without missing a word, so he thought that he might as well open the door and come out. His intention was to ask these two for information regarding Gray Wing Alliance and Wizard’s Tower.
After all, Merlin had only heard about Gray Wing Alliance and Wizard’s Tower from Wizard Gerson of Fort Udon. From Wizard Gerson’s point of view, it was likely that he would not introduce these two factions in a fair and impartial manner.
However, these two Spell Casters obviously seemed to know a lot about Fort Udon, Gray Wing Alliance, and Wizard’s Tower, so Merlin thought of understanding these three factions through them.
“So, it’s Wizard Merlin. I’m Vadrak and this is Wizard Bella. We both plan to become Fort Udon’s black-robed Wizards. However, we’ve not made the final decision, so we were arranged to come here.”
Wizard Vadrak breathed a small sigh of relief but after some thought, he realized that there could be no mishap happening here in Fort Udon. He had been overly cautious earlier.
Merlin could also tell that they were First-level Spell Casters who could meet Fort Udon’s requirements. Barring anything unexpected, they would become black-robed Wizards in Fort Udon.
“Wizard Vadrak, Wizard Bella, you seem to be very familiar with the Kurdmansla Islands?”
“Indeed we are. We came from a distant place and heard some Spell Casters talking about the Kurdmansla Islands, so we know something of the situation here. In reality, it’s our first time here on the Kurdmansla Islands as well.”
This time, it was Bella who spoke.
Merlin felt a surge of enthusiasm. He looked toward the sky, which seemed a long way off from becoming dark, so he asked softly, “Since it’s your first time here as well on the Kurdmansla Islands, why don’t we three take a walk around the island? I’ve been here for a few days but haven’t left Fort Udon.”
“Alright, we wanted to take a look around too. We’ve heard about how the Kurdmansla Islands are so prosperous, yet had never had the chance to come here. Now that we’ve arrived, it’ll be good to see it for ourselves.”
Wizard Vadrak and Wizard Bella had no objections. They wanted to check out the island as well. Thus, the three of them quickly left Fort Udon.
“The island is huge, almost comparable to a small-sized landmass, and it’s even many times bigger than the city we were staying in!”
Bella and Vadrak walked on the island and felt astounded upon seeing the size of the island.
The Kurdmansla Islands were formed by tens of thousands of big and small islands. The island they were currently on was the main island of the Kurdmansla Islands, which was the biggest.
The gigantic island stretched as far as the eye could see and was enormous. It was not that much different from a small landmass. This was also why Fort Udon, Gray Wing Alliance, and Wizard’s Tower were stationed on this island.
Other than its size, the island was filled with Spell Casters peddling potion materials, alchemy materials, and even spells.
One should not judge these wares based on how they were set out on the ground. In fact, some of these were very precious, worth over ten thousand elemental crystal stones. They cost such an enormous sum, yet no one dared to stir up trouble. This was because Gray Wing Alliance, Wizard’s Tower, and Fort Udon had set the rules together. As long as one was on the Kurdmansla Islands, one would receive the protection of the three factions, and no fights were allowed.
If they discovered someone breaking this rule, the three major factions would join forces to hunt that person down. Once, there was a powerful Seventh-level Spell Caster who totally disregarded this rule of the three factions, and killed some Spell Casters on the island. In the end, that Spell Caster was cornered and killed by the masters of the three factions.
Hence, a relatively safe environment was guaranteed on the island. In addition, there were countless mysterious, precious materials which came from the ocean, as well as materials which could only be obtained from the carcasses of sea beasts. Therefore, the Kurdmansla Islands were able to attract many Spell Casters despite its remote distance, allowing the entire place to become prosperous.
“Oh, right, Wizard Vadrak, you know the situation of Gray Wing Alliance and Wizard’s Tower?”
Merlin gradually slowed his steps and inquired in a low voice.
Wizard Vadrak shot Merlin a glance, looking pensive before he began to slowly say, “Wizard Merlin, there’s a large number of people in Gray Wing Alliance, and it’s also rich with various cultivation resources. It could be considered a huge faction. As for Wizard’s Tower, its numbers are not many – not even fifty people. However, Wizard’s Tower only accepts Spell Casters who are Fourth-level or above. It’s been said that anyone who joins Wizard’s Tower would even receive the legendary Pandora Demon Ability! The founder of Wizard’s Tower is enigmatic, and there are few people who know about the true circumstances of that mysterious founder, but the majority of Pandora Demon Abilities within Wizard’s Tower are contributed by that mysterious founder.
“As for Fort Udon, its numbers are not huge. It’s not rich with resources and could boast of no top-notch spells or legendary Pandora Demon Ability. Nonetheless, Fort Udon is worthy of being named the number one strongest faction on the Kurdmansla Islands. As for the reason, I believe Wizard Merlin knows already – unity! The Spell Casters of Fort Udon are incomparably united, and joining this faction is just like integrating into a large family… Previously, a Spell Caster named Wizard Yalen explained the situation of the Kurdmansla Islands to us in detail. He had lived on the island for decades, and all that he spoke of was what he had experienced himself.”
At the mention of “Wizard Yalen”, a strange change washed over the faces of Vadrak and Bella, and their expressions seemed to reveal a strain of sorrow.
