Chapter 515: A Major Event
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It had been three days since Merlin had arrived in Arcane City. In this time, he had generally familiarized himself with Arcane City. However, Merlin was unable to gain a deeper understanding of it for now.
Arcane City was neither large nor small. There were some places which Merlin could not visit for now.
Merlin stayed in a strange, oval-shaped room that was very spacious and extremely secure as well. Not even a Great Legend would be able to examine the Spell Casters who stayed within these unusual rooms.
This was a house personally designed by the Great Arcane Wizard. The Potential Wizards could enjoy absolute privacy which no one could intrude upon here.
Merlin was finally able to rest when he reached his room. In these three days, he had been observing and familiarizing himself with Arcane City. Now, he was ready to construct some spells.
“I can construct a few Sixth-level spells first and bolster my powers!”
In the past, Merlin was in no rush to do so because by relying on spell fusion along with various Demon Abilities and spells, he could compare to most Ninth-level Spell Casters. He was considered freakish and formidable enough already.
However, only after Merlin arrived at Arcane City did he feel the pressure. Although his “gifts” were still decent and were able to outshine a large portion of geniuses, he could not afford to overlook the disparity between his and the other Wizards’ levels. For instance, Saturn. Although Merlin was a Six-Elemental Spell Caster as well and had a greater number of Perfect-grade spells than Saturn, he was still a Seventh-level Spell Caster. Merlin would be no match for Saturn in a battle.
Therefore, Merlin had to strengthen his abilities accordingly. He had essentially reached the limit to the thing he could master in most areas. Naturally, he would have to resort to constructing Sixth-level spells if he wanted to improve on his abilities.
“Matrix, turn on!”
Merlin started up The Matrix. He wanted to derive new Sixth-level spells. These were Sixth-level spells. Naturally, it would be difficult to derive them, and the amount of energy required was nearly inconceivably large.
Nonetheless, it was fortunate that Merlin had not died when the Sky God pinned him down. That tremendous amount of divine energy had been absorbed by The Matrix, converted and stored as special energy. Merlin could now utilize this special energy to derive new Sixth-level spells.
“Matrix, derive new Sixth-level spells!”
Merlin quickly issued his command. The Matrix began its operations instantly, and Merlin could clearly see that the special energy was dwindling at a visible pace in order to support The Matrix’s derivation.
The Matrix’s most exceptional aspect was its calculations. Spell Models themselves were very complicated. The energy required to power such complicated calculations was unimaginable. Merlin had previously tried using Magic Power and elemental crystal stones to see if The Matrix would absorb them, but he had failed in the end. The Matrix would not absorb any other forms of energy for now besides the divine energy of gods and the Maxims of Legendary Wizards.
This had caused Merlin plenty of difficulties. His Thunder Maxim had been decreasing little by little every time he used it, and the energy needed to derive Sixth-level spells was growing at an astonishing rate. It was far beyond what the Fifth-level spells needed.
Merlin was afraid that constructing six Sixth-level spells would use up nearly all of his Thunder Maxim. He would still need to derive Seventh-level, Eighth-level, even Ninth-level spells in the future using The Matrix. Merlin dared not to imagine the colossal amount of energy those would require.
Perhaps this was the greatest flaw of using The Matrix. However, he thought that at least all the spells derived by The Matrix were Excellent, and there even might be some Perfect-grade spells among them. This was something most Spell Casters were unable to accomplish.
There were pros and cons to this. Merlin was able to become the freakish Wizard he was now by relying on The Matrix. Therefore, he would have to think up of a plan in the future to search for Maxims or the divine energy of gods no matter how challenging it might be.
After a few hours, The Matrix finally derived a Sixth-level spell. Merlin inspected remaining divine energy and discovered that there was very little left of it. It was impossible to derive a second Sixth-level spell by relying on divine energy.
“My Mind Power hasn’t reached the limit of a Seventh-level Mind Heart, and it’s not a problem to construct a few Sixth-level spells now. I would have to reach the peak of a Seventh-level Mind Heart in order to construct all the Sixth-level spells though.”
Merlin estimated that the Mind Power required to construct all six Sixth-level spells would be enough by using a Seventh-level Mind Heart at its peak. This was thanks to the fact that Merlin’s Mind Heart had been constantly compressed. Wizard Ossais’s Occult Mind Spell’s Explosion Theory had compressed Merlin’s Mind Heart to half its size.
It was because of that that he was able to construct all Sixth-level spells with just a Seventh-level Mind Heart. Otherwise, he would have to break through to the Eighth-level at least.
Merlin presently had a huge advantage in terms of Mind Power because he had Explosion Theory and had been compressing his Mind Heart incessantly. There were not many whose Mind Heart was so as powerful as his at just the Seventh-level among Mind Power Masters.
First of all, Merlin had derived a Sixth-level Fire-type spell. Merlin had planned in advance that the second Sixth-level spell to derive would be a Thunder-type spell.
Why he would want to construct Fire-type and Thunder-type spells? Of course, it was because these two spells could be fused together. Once they were fused, the two Perfect-grade Sixth-level spells would become unparalleled in terms of its power. At the very least, slaying most Ninth-level Spell Casters would become relatively easy, and he would even be able to contend against Ninth-level Wizards who were slightly stronger than him.
Soon enough, Merlin started to consume the Thunder Maxim once more to derive the Thunder-type spell. Deriving this Sixth-level spell was using up too much of the Maxim. The gigantic Thunder Maxim shrunk rapidly at a discernible speed within a few hours just because it was deriving that one type of Sixth-level spell.
Finally, the Thunder-type spell was derived. All that was left to do was constructing the spells.
Merlin already had the utmost familiarity with constructing spells. First, he selected a spell with a hundred percent compatibility. In the past, Merlin did not know that spells had grades, only knowing how to differentiate between strong and weak ones. However, he now knew that in general, spells with a hundred percent compatibility and were strong enough could already be considered Perfect-grade spells.
It would not exert any influence or pressure upon the Spell Models regardless of how many Perfect-grade spells one had constructed. Otherwise, they would began to exert pressure on the previous Spell Models once there were too many of them, causing them to collapse suddenly. Only Perfect-grade spells, due to their hundred percent compatibility, would not cause the other Spell Models to crumble under pressure.
Merlin began to pick from the derived Fire-type and Thunder-type spells. Naturally, he had picked those with a hundred percent compatibility. Only these spells were Perfect-grade spells, and the subsequent Spell Models would not suffer from any instability. It would not be that dangerous during spell fusion as well.
This was the main reason those Spell Caster clans had focused on spell construction since young. Spell Models were woven tightly in the life of a Spell Caster and were of utmost significance in helping one becoming a Great Wizard.
Once one became a Great Wizard, Spell Models did not serve many purposes anymore. That was because after becoming a Great Wizard, one would then focus on creating Maxims. That was when one started to get involved with the essence of Elements.
At last, Merlin selected his two spells, naming them Endless Flame and Immense Thunder respectively.
The two spells needed to be simulated within his Awareness, requiring a few days’ time. Merlin could only mobilize his Mind Power and began simulating both Spell Models with all his might.
After seven days or so, Merlin opened his eyes in great satisfaction. He had successfully constructed both Sixth-level spells in his Awareness. Despite the addition of two spells, Merlin’s Awareness remained entirely stable without the slightest tremor.
In the cases of many Spell Casters, the more Spell Models they constructed, the higher their level, the more unstable the Spell Models in their Awareness would become. This was to the extent that, each time they constructed a new Spell Model, their Awareness would experience a bout of tremors.
Such Spell Casters, even if they became Ninth-level Spell Casters by luck, could forget about fusing Spell Models in this lifetime and becoming a powerful Great Wizard. That was because the slightest deviation during that instant of fusing the spells would cause them to collapse if the Spell Models were unstable.
The path of a Spell Caster was fraught with difficulties. A slight mistake would result in a stage with no hope of recovery. Merlin had the help of The Matrix and did not have to endure such a tough journey.
However, the pace of Merlin’s spell construction was hindered due to the troubles his Mind Power was experiencing. Merlin’s Mind Power had not reached the limit of a Seventh-level Mind Heart, so he was unable to construct six Sixth-level spells completely. Naturally, he did not manage to become a true Sixth-level Spell Caster.
After constructing the spells, Merlin began to absorb the Elements, turning them into Magic Power. Fortunately, the Elements in Arcane City were far too abundant, and replenishing his Magic Power this way was even faster than using elemental crystals stones. Therefore, Merlin shut his eyes once again and started to work on his recently constructed Spell Models. He absorbed the rich Elements, turning them into Magic Power and storing it into the Spell Models.
One day, two days, three days…
Merlin was transforming the Elements into Magic Power. During this time, no one had disturbed him. Nevertheless, Merlin’s eyes flew open and his eyebrows were knitted together. Someone had triggered the Runic Magic Circle outside his door.
“Who would look for me?”
Merlin thought about it carefully. In Arcane City, he was merely acquainted with the plump Wizard Arrot and the haughty Wizard Saturn. Wizard Saturn’s haughty attitude would not allow him to make the effort to seek out Merlin.
After thinking about this for a moment, Merlin stopped his gathering of Magic Power for now. His Spell Models had accumulated much Magic Power. Although they were not full, they were seventy or eighty percent filled, so there was no rush.
Therefore, Merlin stood up and opened the door.
A fat, swollen body stood at the door. Merlin did not have to see the face to know who it was.
“Merlin, follow me quickly. Something major had happened. We can’t do without you this time. Saturn has gone ahead, and it should be you next!”
It was the plump Wizard Arrot outside the door. After seeing Merlin, he dragged Merlin without any explanation and quickly flew into the air. Judging from his expression, It seemed to be an urgent matter.
