The White Pagoda has seven floors.
Levi finally met the tower master Hermann, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Rather than being a human being, the current tower master looks more like a spherical monster.
Although Levi was not qualified to say this about the Tower Master, after all, he was a "hybrid sea creature" who was despised by the ugly eight-legged sea creatures.
The tower master has now turned into a metal ball with a diameter of about three meters. The metal ball is made of mithril. A heavy metallic smell is spreading over it. Various rivets are inlaid on it, and spell runes flicker on the surface.
Levi didn't know how much time and effort the tower master would have to spend just to collect so much mithril.
It can be seen that the tower master has been waiting for this day for a long time. He has almost completely become an alchemical creature instead of a human...
Mai Lin looked at all this in silence. Although she had expected this day to come, she was speechless when she saw the tower master completely give up his human form and turn into a spherical shape.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in the middle of the metal ball, and the head of the tower master emerged from it. His neck was also an alchemical prosthesis made of mithril, which could be stretched and elongated freely, and it was divided into sections, like the body of a centipede.
A bald old man's head appeared at the end of the metal neck and came to Levi and Malin like a long snake.
"Mylin, Levi, long time no see. I'm relieved to see that you are all okay." The tower master smiled, showing his big yellow teeth.
"You've made your heart and skull into metal, so why don't you make your own yellow teeth into metal?" Mai Lin complained.
The tower master's neck circled around them, and then he smiled and said, "There is no more Yaojin, otherwise I would definitely replace my teeth with a set of Yaojin shark teeth, so that I can bite off Harlant's head directly."
After the tower master finished speaking, his mouth grew as exaggeratedly large as the mechanical alien's, revealing something like a gun barrel inside, and then closed again.
Levi felt amused that in such a small gray and white tower, there actually appeared two "monsters" in the literal sense, the tower owner and himself.
One is an alchemy monster and the other is a knight monster.
"You seem to be in a good mood. How does it feel to advance to the third ring?" asked Mailin.
"It's okay. The feeling is different from that of my teacher when he advanced to the third ring, because I didn't advance to the third ring through the conventional wizard way. I transformed myself into an alchemical creature. So to be precise, I am a three-ring alchemical creature controlled by a wizard's brain. When I master the soul transfer technology of the School of Death, I will upload my soul and consciousness to a [Soul Box] similar to that of a lich, and replace my brain with a second energy power core besides alchemy. By then, I may have the same long lifespan as a lich and advance to the fourth ring, but this requires a long preparation process." said the tower master.
Levi clicked his tongue inwardly. The tower master was going further and further down the path of an alchemist weirdo, abandoning all flesh and blood, pursuing the so-called soul and mechanical immortality. He could only be described as the wizarding world version of a "cyber madman" or "necron".
Levi admits that he can't do this.
"You don't feel any discomfort? You won't turn into an alchemical madman, right?" Meilin asked. She didn't expect that the Tower Master was still not satisfied and wanted to replace his brain with an "alchemical brain". By then, even if he succeeded, would he still be the Tower Master?
"I am very successful, and my current condition is better than I expected, thanks to Levi's Heart of Stone. It is definitely the top-level Heart of Stone. It gave me a powerful alchemical heart."
After the tower master finished speaking, the upper left corner of the spherical body opened, and a heart jumped out with a plop, beating continuously and making a "cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo" sound, just like those old alarm clocks.
This heart vaguely resembles a heart of stone, but various alchemical tubes and alchemical runes are flashing on it. The enormous energy contained in it flows through the complex and sophisticated alchemical body of the tower master.
Levi listened to the cuckoo call and laughed. He didn't expect that the tower master actually had a naughty side.
Mai Lin rolled her eyes at the tower master and said, "In that case, what are you going to do next? The sea beast tide is still going on."
"Like I said before, I won't show up. From what I know about Harant, he won't let go of any opportunity to take advantage of someone's misfortune. I have a feeling that Harant will take this opportunity to cause trouble, so I have to wait for him and give him a big surprise. Hehehe, maybe Harant is also waiting for the opportunity to give me a big surprise."
The tower master rolled around on the ground, laughing happily, which was very funny, making Levi feel like he was seeing the "funny emoticon package" from his previous life.
"I understand. We will guard it well. If a normal second ring comes, Yorman and I should be able to resist it." Mailin sighed and said goodbye to the old naughty boy of the tower master.
The tower master stopped Levi before he left.
"Thanks to you during this period." The tower master rolled over, put his head in front of Levi and said.
"It's my duty. It was the Gray Tower and the Tower Master who gave me the opportunity to become a wizard. Everyone has also taken good care of me. What I'm doing is part of my job." Levi said quickly.
"Do you want to learn alchemy?" the tower master suddenly asked.
Levi's expression remained unchanged, but he was suspicious in his heart. Could it be that the tower master also wanted to pass on his alchemy heritage to him?
"I... I can't do it. I don't have much talent." Levi said.
"What are you afraid of? I am also the son of chaos. Didn't I become a three-ring person anyway?" said the tower master.
"But you old man have turned yourself into a lump of iron..." Levi complained in his heart. He didn't want this to happen.
"I can see that your talent is not as simple as it seems. I also have a little understanding of the way of knights. To become a legend at your age, the character and perseverance are beyond the reach of ordinary people. From some cases, those legendary knights with wizard talent, no matter what their talent is, their final achievements will not be too low. Moreover, although you are the son of chaos, you have only been in the tower for less than ten years, and you have advanced from a low-level apprentice wizard to a high-level wizard apprentice. With such a speed, even those with three-system affinity cannot be as fast as you.
So wizard talent is nothing. I can see that you can definitely become a formal wizard. No matter what kind of opportunity or luck you have, I don't care about the process, I only care about the result. I believe you can become a formal wizard.
Of course, there is no free lunch in this world. Although I will not stick to the so-called [principle of equivalent exchange] as rigidly as some wizards, I still hope that if you achieve something in the future, you will not forget the Gray Tower and Granny Mai who provided you with a little help when you were confused and helpless when you first entered this world. "
The tower master said with a smile.
"Thank you for your kindness, Tower Master. Please let me think about it. I'm afraid that I'll take care of too many things and delay the normal practice of wizards and pharmacists." Levi said in embarrassment.
"Yes, I understand. Let's talk about it after you become a formal wizard." said the tower master.
"Okay." Levi nodded.
After obtaining permission from the tower master, he left the White Tower.
"Why does the Tower Master suddenly want to teach me alchemy? Could it be that he wants to transform me into an alchemical creature and then turn me into his puppet, or take over my body? Of course, it is also possible that the Tower Master really sees my potential and wants to invest in me before I grow up. In that case, I can only say... he has vision." Levi was lost in thought. The former was too much of a conspiracy theory, and the latter was more likely.
He did want to learn alchemy, but his time was limited. The most important thing was to break through the shackles of the legendary realm and advance to a formal wizard, so alchemy, which took time and money, had to be put on hold for the time being.
No matter what, with the tower master out of seclusion, the gray-white tower with a three-ring combat force is basically certain to survive the tide of sea beasts.
Levi breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves relaxed a little.
However, the sea beast tide has not completely passed, so it is impossible to completely relax.
Levi still practices breathing techniques every day, hoping to advance to the [Legendary Six-Dimensional State] as soon as possible. By that time, perhaps he will have the combat power to rival that of a second-ring wizard.
As time went by, the other people in the Gray Tower didn't know that the tower master had come out. They had become numb from the repeated attacks by sea beasts.
After the mangrove hut, another second-ring wizard organization [Mirage Tower] was razed to the ground by Ghost Claw Butcher and Yellow Flash.
For the first time, the sea tribe showed their terrifying strength in front of the wizards. The leader of the second-ring wizard organization, which only had one second-ring wizard, was outnumbered and killed.
This caused other wizard organizations in this sea area to panic. The strength shown by the sea tribe this time was too strong, coupled with the countless sea beasts, all wizard organizations were afraid that they would be the next to be attacked.
The sea clan seemed to be attacking in a targeted manner as well. Their generals were divided into groups of two and only targeted those weak wizard organizations that only had a second-ring wizard in charge.
Forces like Sighing Sea Breeze and Gray Tower, which have two second-ring commanders, have not been attacked by the sea clan generals so far.
The wizards could naturally see that the sea tribe was defeating them one by one, and would wait until all the armies gathered together before taking on the tough challenge.
But even if they knew the enemy's conspiracy, the wizards could not do anything. They could not abandon their wizard tower, and without the Blue Boat, they could not help or communicate with each other between organizations. It was more dangerous to flee in the vast ocean than to defend the wizard tower.
This is the tragedy of low-level wizard organizations. Many of them have been abandoned by the Pan-Dimensional Wizard Council and have become the unlucky ones in this Endless Sea Trial.
…
The year 1024 of the Holy Hui Calendar, the month of the North Wind.
Compared to the chaos in the blue land.
The world seems a little calmer.
In the Kingdom of Eternal Night, the Ice and Snow Saint gradually grew up under the careful care of the church. As the saint's mother, the Goddess Knight Elsa met her daughter very few times after her daughter was born, and the archbishop's attitude towards her seemed to be getting more and more indifferent.
Reason told Elsa that the saint was not her daughter, and she was just a vessel for "Him" to come to the earth. She should not be so self-indulgent. However, when she thought of the feelings of being a mother when she was pregnant, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
After this kind of pain and suffering lasted for a short time, Aisha disappeared...
Elsa, the queen of the Kingdom of Eternal Night, the daughter of God, and the goddess knight, mysteriously disappeared on a cold night.
At first, the church tried to conceal this matter until Elsa's loyal guard, Knight Kader, leaked the matter to the outside world, and the world learned this shocking news:
The Queen is missing!
Afterwards, Kader was beheaded for spreading rumors and misleading the public!
Some people speculated that he was killed by a snow demon, while some conspiracy theorists speculated that he was killed by the church.
There are also rumors that someone saw Elsa being taken away by an old man in a black robe using "magic".
In short, there are many different opinions, but one thing is certain: there is no queen in the Kingdom of Eternal Night today.
The Ice and Snow Church can only let the archbishop temporarily serve as regent and wait for the new king to take over.
Compared to the chaotic Kingdom of Eternal Night, the Emerald Kingdom is relatively peaceful.
The policy of recuperation has gradually helped the aftermath of the Black Mountain War to recover. The nobles have also gradually recovered their vitality, and so has the royal family. However, after the Knight of the White Horse, no more brilliant knights have been born in the royal family. Some people predict that this is the end of the Emerald Royal Family, which means that the kingdom's fortune is about to end. In the near future, the world will change, and the era of the rule of the [Emerald Dragon] is coming to an end.
Only the Holy Light Church is aloof from the world, watching the changes in the world with cold eyes, and waiting for the birth of its own saint.
In the city of flowers where it is spring all year round.
"The chess-playing monk" Anderson and "the chess-losing master" Andrew are playing chess again.
Because the Owl House in Azure Land temporarily stopped mailing services, Andrew could not mail the breathing methods he had recently collected to Levi, and Andrew had almost collected all the breathing methods that were easy to collect in the entire Emerald Kingdom. The rest were either with some nobles, or with the royal family or the church, so Andrew was now sending people to other distant countries to find more breathing methods, but because of the long distance, the efficiency was definitely not as good as before.
As for Anderson, he had successfully practiced the Blood Beast Breathing Method that Levi gave him to the Knight level some time ago. With his current level and his long lifespan, it was only a matter of time before he could practice the Blood Beast Breathing Method to the ninth level limit. As for whether he could break the limit like Levi, it was hard to say.
It was too boring to stay in the human world. All he could do all day was play chess with Andrew or chat with some old vampire friends. Anderson suddenly had the urge to go to the blue land to join Levi.
However, considering that Levi is not yet a formal wizard and may not be able to protect himself, he thought about it and decided not to cause trouble for Levi. It would be better to do his job as the deputy leader of the Twilight Knights and go to the human world to find out if there are any hidden legendary knights, so that the Twilight Knights can grow and develop as soon as possible.
A knightly order composed entirely of legendary knights, what a powerful force it must be in the world.
The 1025th year of the Holy Hui Calendar, the original month.
The sea monster tide has been going on for almost a year.
Another second-ring wizard organization was taken down by the sea tribe. So far, three weaker second-ring wizard organizations have been destroyed in the sea area where the Gray Tower is located, and as for those first-ring ones, there are even more. This is an absolute disaster, and there is still no sign of the sea beast tide ending.
However, the wizarding organizations that have been able to survive so many sea beast attacks are basically tough ones. After many setbacks, the powerful sea creatures seem to have temporarily stopped and started discussing the next plan.
And those dark wizard organizations hiding behind the scenes are still waiting for the best opportunity. Harant is already gearing up, ready to teach that damn Herman a severe lesson. Once the magic defense of the Gray Tower is broken and both the sea clan and the Gray Tower are defeated, Harant will lead these second-ring wizards to charge into the Gray Tower and give old dog Herman a big surprise.
In the Gray Tower, the apprentices were exhausted, and many of them were injured. In the previous attacks by sea beasts, some sea beasts found a weak point in the formation. With the help of the first ring of extraordinary creatures, these sea beasts rushed in and caused a lot of trouble. Although these sea beasts were eventually dealt with, the losses they brought were huge.
Later, this weak point was guarded by Marco and Tim themselves, and the situation improved.
During this period, Levi also hunted a lot of sea beasts. He now has a warehouse in his house for storage bags. These storage bags are filled with various sea beast materials that Levi needs. These materials will be used by Levi in refining potions or casting spells in the future. If it were normal, it would be difficult to find these sea beasts, but during this period, these sea beasts were delivered directly to his door. To some extent, Levi could be said to have turned a disaster into a blessing.
"It would be even better if a sea beast like the Gray Naga was sent up."
Levi was still thinking about his first-ring potion "Blessing of the Naga".
On this day, in the secret training room, after Li Weixi performed the Red Lotus Breathing Technique, he exhaled a long stream of red smoke, which blackened the walls.
"Red Lotus Breathing Technique, eleventh level."
Levi muttered to himself, in a very good mood.
Levi——
Crimson Lotus Breathing Technique: Level 11 (Extreme), Special Effects: Flame Body (Solid), Crimson Lotus Blood.
…
After the solid flaming body, Levi's body was directly covered with a layer of hard armor that looked like it was cast from magma. Red cracks spread all over it, and one could vaguely see the burning magma blood flowing through it. Levi's body burst out with even more powerful power.
This is the power of the eleventh-order red lotus that can compete with Emperor Mu!
This means that Levi has entered the stage of [Legendary Three-Dimensional State].
After legendary defense and legendary speed, Levi gained legendary power!
Legendary knights of three major paths!
Li Wei dare not say that there will be no one to surpass him, but he should be the first one to do so.
The Flame Body not only increases strength, but also resistance to burning faction spells.
Even if Levi didn't use the solid black scales to defend himself, the common burning faction's tricks couldn't cause a burning effect on him. Only the small fireball technique could make Levi, who was in the flame body state, feel the burning effect.
He felt that if he met Kane and Carter again now, killing them would be easier than before. Even if he faced the two-ring creature Nightmare Knight, Levi would be able to hold on longer.
After all, the two-ring creature has no spell-like abilities other than great strength and resistance.
In short, after the Red Lotus Breathing Method advanced to the eleventh level, Levi's strength expanded again.
After the legend of the Red Lotus Breathing Technique, the legendary organ was naturally born.
Compared to the [Black Snake's Faith] of the Black Snake Breathing Technique and the [Vampire's Touch] of the Blood Beast Breathing Technique, the position of the legendary organ this time is much more normal.
The organ of this legend is... the heart. One of the most important organs in the human body, the core of the blood circulation system.
Levi's heart is now completely different from before.
Before this, Levi was at least a man of flesh and blood.
But now, Levi's heart has turned into a magma heart similar to the Heart of Stone.
The surface of the heart exudes a burning breath, making Levi's chest always "warm".
If it wasn't for the Flying Fish Robe, an ordinary robe would have been ignited by the high temperature of Levi's heart in no time.
At this moment, that strong and powerful heart was beating. Every beat transported blood as sticky and hot as magma to Levi's limbs and bones, making Levi feel like he was burning.
"I have a fever." Levi grinned, feeling the burning sensation in his body.
As his heart beat, Levi's heart was like a huge furnace, boiling Levi's blood. A mysterious and powerful force filled Levi's body. This state was similar to the state when Levi ignited the special effect of [Red Lotus Blood]. Levi's strength and explosive power were enhanced, and there were no sequelae. This was a normalized power increase. Although the effect was far less than that of Red Lotus Blood, it was more durable and had no sequelae.
Levi's strength now should be more than twice what it was before the Red Lotus Breathing Technique had its limits. If the increase from burning Red Lotus blood is added, the power will reach an extremely terrifying level!
In addition, this magma heart has some special features. Levi's mind moved. More and more scorching breath gathered in Levi's heart furnace, turning Levi's heart into a small crater. The energy contained in it became larger and larger, and it seemed to need to be vented.
Levi left the gray tower, exited the barrier, and found a deserted place. He suddenly opened his mouth.
The burning force that kept expanding, burning and reacting in the heart and finally reached a critical point seemed to have an outlet.
boom!
A stream of red flame as thick as a bowl gushed out from Levi's open mouth. Wherever the flame passed, all the trees were burnt and broken, and even a huge rock blocking the way was blown apart by the red flame.
"...belch"
Levi burped and exhaled a breath of hot, foul air with a strong smell of sulfur and gunpowder.
He looked at everything along the way that was destroyed by the red flame breath and couldn't help falling into deep thought.
“I’m used to it.”
Finally, Levi sighed helplessly.
He actually used his mouth to perform a breath that was similar to that of dragon creatures.
This is the most significant effect after Levi's heart became a legendary organ. Levi now has the spell-like ability to breathe.
He named this legendary heart [Red Lotus Furnace], and this breath [Red Lotus Breath]!
The power of Red Lotus Breath is even stronger than Levi's Flame Seal, which basically makes the Flame Seal withdraw from the stage of history. Levi feels that this move should not be much worse than the Fireball Technique, but the Fireball Technique has a larger explosion range and a wider killing range, while the Red Lotus Breath has a longer spray distance and more concentrated power. In general, each has its own advantages and disadvantages and can complement each other.
However, the power of the Red Lotus Breath can be enhanced with the continuous advancement of the Extraordinary Heart. It can grow. If one day, Levi can become a real Red Lotus behemoth, the power of its breath will surely make even the legendary wizards fear it.
At Levi's current level, after breathing out the red lotus, it would take a long cooling time to gather strength for the second breath, so when and how to use this powerful killing move? All of these require precise calculation and analysis.
Levi's Black Snake Letter licked his lips and silently returned to the tower.
Now the Red Lotus Breathing Technique has reached its limit at the eleventh level.
With the number of power-type breathing methods that Levi has now, it is enough to break the limit of the Red Lotus Breathing Method and move towards the twelfth level. After thinking about it, Levi temporarily stopped breaking the limit of the Red Lotus Breathing Method. This was his first time to break the limit of the eleventh level, and he didn't know what would happen next. It's better to be cautious and break the limit of his own Black Snake first. After the Black Snake breaks the limit, see the situation and decide whether to break the limit of the Red Lotus.
Next, Levi only needs to practice the Phoenix Breathing Technique and the Black Whale Breathing Technique. He wants to try his best to practice all the breathing techniques he has before the peak of the sea beast tide arrives.
The year 1025 of the Holy Hui Calendar, the month of flowers.
Originally, this was the time for the members of the Twilight Knights to form a team, but because of the sudden "tide of sea beasts", Levi and Mudi were trapped in their own organizations and could not get out, so the matter was dropped.
Levi knew that with the strength of Sighing Sea Breeze, it should be no problem to survive this sea beast tide. Although the opponent did not have a third-ring wizard, there were two second-ring wizards in charge. As long as they were not particularly unlucky, there should be no problem. As a legendary knight, Mu Di could survive the pursuit of the Church of the World, so he should have no problem saving his life.
A year has passed since the sea monster outbreak. The entire Endless Sea seems to be covered with a layer of gray mist.
During this period of time, Levi led the wizard apprentices to repel a wave of invasion of sea beasts, and his Phoenix Breathing Technique also successfully reached the tenth level.
The gaseous "blood embers" were upgraded to liquid "blood embers", and Levi's physique became much stronger than before, and his self-healing ability was slightly improved. Whenever Levi used the blood embers special effect, red ashes would fall from his body with the wind, fall to the ground, and turn into sparks, which was very strange.
The year 1025 of the Holy Hui calendar, the month of flowing fire.
Due to the repeated and high-intensity invasions of sea beasts, the consumption of Taishi by the second-ring magic circle increased day by day, and the entire gray-white tower was almost reaching its limit.
Another month passed, and the second-ring magic circle finally stopped working. The tower master directly asked Teacher Meilin to close the formation, leaving only 10,000 Taishi for the final moment.
It's not just the Gray Tower that is like this; other wizarding organizations are also on the verge of exhaustion.
Even Whale Song Island, a three-ring wizard organization, is about to collapse.
Although no sea creatures went to attack Whale Song Island after the people above Morpheus secretly reached an agreement with the sea creatures, the location of Whale Song Island is relatively close to the inner sea area, and the power of water element is more concentrated. Therefore, the strength and number of sea beasts that are not controlled by the sea creatures there are more pessimistic than those in the marginal areas such as the Gray Tower.
In the Bicchi Castle in the deep sea, the Deep Sea Baron felt the current situation and smiled with satisfaction. It had been a long time since the sea people had felt so proud.
Van der Roh also sharpened his eight swords. In the year-long tide of sea beasts, the power of those wizard towers had been almost completely destroyed by the sea beasts, so it was time to end it all.
"Vander Luo, call the other three generals and go with me to the expedition...to the Whale Song Island." The Deep Sea Baron said with a weird smile.
"My Lord Baron, didn't you say that the Duke reached a cooperation with the people behind Whale Song Island?" Vanderro thought that according to the plan, they should attack other second-ring wizard organizations. He didn't expect that the Baron actually wanted to take action against the local tyrants in this area.
"Heh, what does the Duke's cooperation have to do with me? I have already been very considerate by not sending troops to attack Whale Song Island this year. I have had enough of the plans of these self-righteous bigwigs. Do you think our sea people can really reach a cooperation with wizards?
Van der Ro, humans love to kill the donkey after it has done its work. Betrayal, going back on one's word, cunning and greed are human nature. The second-ring organizations that have been able to resist until now are all tough, and they all have their own trump cards behind them. If we attack those second-ring wizard organizations one by one and consume all our manpower on them bit by bit, then, I am sure that Morpheus will take advantage of the conflict between the snipe and the clam and take the opportunity to get rid of us, so that his Whale Song Island can rest assured in this sea area.
After a year of sea beast invasion, the defense of Whale Song Island has reached its weakest point. I have to eliminate the person who is the most dangerous to me in this sea area, so that I can destroy other organizations without any worries. Morpheus and his people can betray wizards, betray humans, and even betray our sea people. I have never believed in any human words.
I just want to do what I want to do. As for the Duke's plan, that is the Duke's own business. As long as I don't do anything against the Empire and the God of the Sea, he can't do anything to me.
Prepare the army.
Target: Whale Song Island.
After destroying Whale Song Island, our next target will be the Gray Tower."
The Deep Sea Baron said.
He had made sufficient preparations for this day.
Van der Rohe thought about it and felt that what the Baron said made sense, so he went to gather the troops.
In another sea area, Harant, feeling that the time was ripe, took four other second-ring wizards and rode his own Hell Three-Headed Lizard towards the Gray Tower.
"It's time to settle our feud, Herman... This time, you can't escape!"
