The Purple Key

Chapter 70 The Purple Key

The 79th floor of the Black Tower, the Peranos Laboratory.

Peranos stared dumbfounded at the three heads before him, feeling the negative energy unique to dark wizards within them. His head, which looked like a stitched-up punctured ball, had his eyes almost popping out. He stared in disbelief, scrutinizing the negative energy of the three dark wizard heads again and again, seemingly unable to believe what he was seeing.

After a long while, Peranos finally realized his loss of composure in front of his disciple, and his face hardened as if he had seen this kind of thing many times before.

But when Peranos saw Green's expression of wanting to laugh but not daring to, he immediately knew that his ugly behavior had been seen by this disciple. After a cold snort, he said angrily, "Speak, what exactly happened? When did there become so many black wizards? They dare to appear in groups on the Wizarding Continent, and a wizard apprentice even killed three of them."

"Yes, mentor."

Then, Green recounted his experiences, observations, associations, and investigations along the way.

Peranos was surprised for a moment, but he couldn't help but become more and more satisfied with the disciple in front of him.

"I've said it so many times, wisdom is the source of a wizard's power. Wisdom is not just knowledge, and you did a great job on that. Those fools actually thought that just hunting down one of these things lured by otherworldly creatures was enough to complete their assigned mission? No way, I have to have a good talk with that old guy over there."

As they were talking, Peranos pondered for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "An alien creature! How does he communicate with the wizarding world?"

"have no idea."

Green shook his head.

Green had virtually no knowledge of communicating with other worlds, and this was not a topic that a wizard apprentice could possibly have access to.

However, after thinking for a moment, Green continued, "However, it conveys commands through the projection of will into the wizarding world, appearing on a giant mirror. This is a fragment of that mirror, and I think it may contain traces of coordinates from the other world."

Peranos caught the shards of glass from Green and was extremely excited.

"Haha, you little rascal, if there really is residual information about the other world's coordinates in here, you'll be rich! I'm going to summon the Tower Master's will projection right now. If we really discover the coordinates of the other world, the Tower Master will definitely reward you personally. This is the reward for a Level 6 Saintly Archmage!"

"A level six...a level six Saintly Archmage!"

Green stared at his mentor in horror, muttering in disbelief.

Level 6 Saintly Archmage?

Wouldn't that make him the most top-tier Stigmata Wizard?

Above that lies the true ruler of the endless world, the True Spirit Wizard of the Wizarding World.

The pressure from a level six Saint Mark Archmage, while not quite reaching the level of a True Spirit Wizard where a wizard apprentice would be unconsciously killed if they got too close, was still far from pleasant. Given the vast difference in their life levels, it was best to stay as far away as possible.

Thinking that someone of the Tower Master's level would have absolutely no interest in meeting a wizard apprentice, Green breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Green couldn't help but silently pray for that otherworldly demon god, who dared to come to the wizarding world and incite a group of children to evilly collect the souls of innocent humans.

Now that they are being watched by a level six Saint Mark Archmage, it's unknown whether that world can withstand the Black Tower Lord's desire to explore.

Moreover, the six wizarding academy masters within the twelve districts of the Seven Rings Holy Tower are allies, and if all six Saint-Stigma wizards were to gather together...

After that, it was no longer Green's concern.

Even Green hadn't expected that this mission would take such a big turn.

Hey……

Good luck to that otherworldly Dark Flame God. Just don't arouse the curiosity of a level six archmage, or you'll end up being sliced ​​up in the lab.

Green was secretly pleased.

I thought I was going to investigate a dark wizard, but I ended up discovering a projection of the will of an otherworldly creature, who even revealed my world coordinates. What a foolish otherworldly creature.

Peranos departed for a mysterious space on the higher levels of the Black Tower. The Black Tower has ninety floors and above, which even formal wizards are not qualified to visit.

Green wasted no time. He first extracted the black flame from the devil's contract and put it into a test tube. Then he began to try to analyze the body composition of the otherworldly elemental creature.

Elemental activation magic is a form of sorcerer's use of knowledge of elemental energy and life science to construct beings of their own concept using elements.

In addition to basic elemental control, a complete and rational biological framework in the concept is also required.

Generally speaking, due to their limited knowledge and wisdom, low-level elemental wizards will choose to analyze certain creatures around them in reality, learn from nature, and construct their own framework of elemental creatures.

Elemental wizards with higher levels of knowledge can obtain catalysts from powerful creatures in other worlds or from the remains of powerful creatures that have appeared in the long history, in order to construct more advanced elemental active creatures.

The latter type of elemental activation magic is powerful, but it is extremely time-consuming, requires a high level of professional knowledge, and also requires a catalyst that matches one's own element.

Through his research on the code of life, Green has gained a fairly high level of unique insight into certain aspects of life science, which is sufficient to support his analysis of the catalyst of this alien creature and then construct his own conceptual framework of element-activated biology.

Of course, besides time, the most important thing in this process is inspiration. Inspiration accumulated over time cannot be completed in a short period of time.

legend……

Some exceptionally talented wizards, using their superior wisdom and knowledge, created imaginary, activated elemental creatures, without even using any catalysts in their magic.

However, since analyzing the conceptual elements of the organism and constructing the prototype was not a task that could be completed in a short time, requiring thorough analysis and constant inspiration, Green was not in a hurry. Instead, he began to learn some other knowledge, and only when inspiration occasionally struck would he make some adjustments to the biological framework in his mind.

Green took two books on elemental knowledge from his mentor Peranos's library, namely "Fire Element Intensive Fire Shield Spell" and "The Annihilation Characteristics of Explosive Flame Spell," in order to learn more spells and make full use of his fiery body and inextinguishable flames.

The quality of a third-level archmage's collection of books needs no further explanation.

"Fire Element Dense Fire Shield Sorcery" describes how to use the volumeless nature of fire elements to create a powerful fire elemental defensive shield through rapid and dense aggregation. It belongs to the deeper level of elemental energy science.

After reviewing some of it, Green estimated his research findings and understanding of the knowledge, and was confident that he could thoroughly understand and flexibly apply the knowledge of this fire shield sorcery within one to two years.

"The Annihilation Characteristics of Explosive Flame Magic" describes explosive flame magic as a complex and multifaceted form of magic, which could be considered a super-class magic for a wizard apprentice.

Aside from formal wizards, only wizard apprentices like Grimm, who possess a talent similar to the "Body of Fire," are worth trying to study.

Green had originally taken out the book with the intention of learning the sorcery of Exploding Flames, but now he was deeply attracted by the extended research in the book.

This explosive fire magic is a powerful form of magic developed by utilizing the incompatibility and antagonism between the fire and water elements.

The ancient wizards' purpose seemed to be simply to take advantage of the incompatibility of water and fire, and to create this powerful spell without delving into anything deeper.

However, the author of this book is different.

The author began to analyze in depth why the incompatibility and antagonism of the water and fire elements could produce a spell with greater power than the spells boosted by the wind and fire elements. Ultimately, he discovered a destructive characteristic in the spells.

However, the author's research seems to have been limited to this.

Because of its annihilating nature, it cannot be used with any known substances or magic, nor can it be collected by any means. Therefore, it is naturally impossible to use it.

However, the knowledge discovered in this book is still very promising and can be considered a pioneering advancement in a certain field. Therefore, it was collected by Peranos in his library.

Green's eyes flickered.

Perhaps it's time to learn some knowledge about the water and lightning elements in a compatible way.

The knowledge of the water element was the key to this explosive fire magic. Green wasn't even sure if he could master it during his wizarding apprenticeship; he just considered it his greatest goal.

As for the knowledge of the lightning element, one aspect is to study the boosting characteristics of the water and lightning elements, and the other is to prepare for the rare runes on those two broken branches in the future.

In his excitement, Green had completely forgotten the concept of time due to his fervor for learning witchcraft.

Boom, boom, boom!

The sound of three taps on the table.

Green looked up at Peranos, his eyes gleaming with dark circles, and asked in surprise, "Mentor, what's wrong?"

Peranos, who had been full of enthusiasm, was taken aback when he saw Green looking as haggard and tired as before, and at the same time, he felt a slight touch in his heart.

It is said that knowledge is the most important thing in the wizarding world, but to acquire knowledge requires infinite wisdom and immense hardship. On the road to becoming a higher-level wizard, wisdom and hardship must go hand in hand!

Peranos's initial enthusiasm gradually faded, and he patted Green's head like an elder, saying in a low voice, "You haven't rested for five days?"

Green was startled by Peranos's intimate gesture, but seeing the sincere look in his mentor's eyes beneath his fierce exterior, Green relaxed slightly and asked somewhat awkwardly, "It's been five days already?"

It seems that it's due to improved stamina; otherwise, Green's limit would have been three days.

"You bastard! Humph, don't take advantage of your high stamina to recklessly ruin your body. Wizards don't just live to pursue higher goals; they also need to enjoy everything that normal humans should have."

With that, Peranos tossed a purple key at Green and said coldly, "I am now ordering you, as your mentor, to go and rest immediately!"

Although the words were stern, the concern they conveyed was self-evident.

Green took the purple key, about the length of a finger, which shimmered brightly. He exclaimed in surprise, "What is this? Such strong spatial fluctuations! I seem to sense a great will."

"This key is called the Key of Friendship of the Black Tower. It is a token of reward personally given to you by the Tower Master. The shard of glass you brought does indeed contain a world coordinate, although it is very blurry and far away. However, with the Tower Master's abilities, it is only a matter of time before he deduces the true coordinate."

Peranos's eyes held a hint of longing.

Looking at the purple key, Green couldn't help but think of Raffi's golden key.

"Then... what use is this Key of Friendship from Blacksota to me?"

Green asked tentatively.

Peranos's face darkened, as if about to drip water, and he said grimly, "Isn't the friendship of the Blacksota Wizarding Academy enough?"

"what?"

Seeing that the old man was angry, Green quickly said, "Enough...enough, haha, being able to gain the friendship of the academy is the greatest fortune of my life."

Perhaps because of Peranos's caring gesture, Green also started joking around, and the relationship between the two underwent a qualitative change.

"Hmph, this key can summon one of the Tower Master's powerful soul servants three times. This is a powerful servant of a sixth-level Saint Mark Archmage. Alright, go and rest."

Peranos drove Green away.
