"The Legendary Monster Ranking is easy. I'll give you a Monster Encyclopedia of the Monster Research Institute. However, there are places that sell Legendary Parasitic Soul Worms, but with our funds, even if we sell them, I don't think we can compete with others." The black mage was about to drink the coffee but slowly put it back on the table after hearing Dean's words.
Dean glanced at him: "How did you get the legendary Parasitic Soul Worm?"
The black mage smiled: "I bought it with the money I saved over the years. Since I became the master I invested all my funds into the experiment. I don't have much savings. It's not that I'm reluctant to give it to you."
"Even the Bourne family's is not enough?" Dean narrowed his eyes.
The black mage hesitated: "It's enough. But the Bourne family's assets are fixed assets. If we want to liquidate them as soon as possible, it will be too much of a loss. Moreover, the Bourne family is a big family. If we suddenly sell a lot of their assets it will certainly attract the attention of other families. If they investigate us then we will be exposed."
"Is this the reason why you didn't make a move on the Bourne family?" Dean thought for a moment and got up: "Let me see the illustrated book of monsters first."
The black mage quickly got up and followed.
After returning to the hotel, the black magician went to the nearby Magic Research Institute to buy an illustrated handbook of the monsters. The illustrated handbook looked like a magazine, but the paper was smooth. It was a high-quality coated paper. The surface of the handbook was equipped with a color picture taken by a camera. It wasn't like the sketches in Sylvia's giant wall.
The first thing that caught his eye was the list of monsters: Legendary, Rare, Uncommon, and Normal. Legendary had the least number of monsters, but it still had 47 types of Legendary monsters. The first Legendary monster was called Gilgamesh. It did not have the word 'Swordsman', which was unique to monsters that were given names. It was an ancient Legendary monster, and its introduction was also at the very beginning of the list. It was actually a 5-star Legendary monster!
"Gilgamesh, five-star legend. It is reported that there are only three Gilgamesh in the world. One of them was captured and exploded before dying, leaving no Parasitic Soul Worm. The whereabouts of the other two are still unknown …" Dean's eyelids twitched as he looked at the information above. This legendary monster "Gilgamesh" had never been captured. Didn't this mean that no one had its Parasitic Soul Worm?
Black Magician saw Dean turn to this page, smiled slightly, and said with emotion: "This legendary monster is not only the No.1 in our Giant Wall Illustrated Handbook of legendary monsters, I heard that even in the Empire, it is ranked in the top five of the five-star legendary monsters. It is very rare. Since ancient times, no one has ever obtained its Parasitic Soul Worm, including those big shots in the Empire. What a pity."
Dean didn't expect him to know something about the empire. He couldn't help but look at him. Then he thought that the giant wall was different from Silvia. It had a close relationship with the empire. It was assigned by the empire to look after the devil's pit. It was normal for the residents here to have more contact and understanding about the empire than the residents of Silvia.
His eyes fell on the blurred picture below. It was a picture taken by a camera. But maybe the focus was not right, so it was a bit blurry. Generally speaking, it was in a vast forest. A huge monster with a humanoid body was walking in the forest. Its arms were extremely long, almost reaching its knees. There were sharp blades on its arms, as well as vine tentacles. The monster's head was like a tree branch with its leaves cut off. It had irregular sharp horns. Its whole body had a silver-white streamlined body. It was very strange. The most eye-catching thing was that it had four huge wings on its back. They were like erect black blades.
Dean looked carefully and found that the forest under its feet was only up to its knees!
It must be known that most of the trees in this world had already grown crazily under the influence of nuclear radiation. Especially in the forest, the trees were generally twenty to thirty meters high!
If it was according to this ratio …
Wouldn't Gilgamesh be more than one hundred and fifty meters high?!
Dean's pupils shrank. He felt an inexplicable shiver. This wasn't a storybook but reality. A monster with a height of more than one hundred and fifty meters was living in the same world as him. They were only separated by a giant wall. Just thinking about it made him shudder! It wasn't a problem to stop the average monster with the height of the giant wall. But in front of a monster like Gilgamesh, wasn't it just a matter of jumping?!
Dean couldn't imagine that such a huge creature could grow on the earth. It wasn't expansion but rampage!
The sense of crisis was very strong. But soon Dean calmed down. There was an ancient Chinese saying that if the sky collapsed, there would be a tall one to support it. If such a monster appeared in front of the giant wall, the weak civilians and the tall ones would be the most unlucky ones. Freemen like them could leave at any time.
"Resistance, seven stars …"
"Speed increase, seven stars …"
"Physique increase, seven stars …"
Dean saw the following introduction, but it was marked as experimental speculation. The data was detected from Gilgamesh's severed limbs.
It was the first time for Dean to see a seven-star evaluation. The highest he had seen before was only five stars. He thought that five stars was the limit. It seemed that the power contained in Gilgamesh was beyond the concept of ordinary legendary monsters. The basic increase in all aspects was estimated to be comparable to the increase in speed of low-level legendary monsters.
The second legendary monster was called "Leo". It was also an ancient legendary monster. From the name, it could be seen that this was a monster that controlled lightning. Its body contained extremely terrifying electricity. It fed on lightning and thunderbirds. Some people said that it was the king of thunderbirds, but others said that it was the nemesis of thunderbirds, or even the bane of thunderbirds.
However, it was also because of its simple living habits that it was easy to be captured. As long as Thunder or Thunderbirds were used as bait, it would be easy to lure it. Although it was strong, humans had always been used to defeating the strong with the weak. This was the unchanging ability of humans in all things on Earth!
Leo was also a five-star legendary monster. The basic increase in all aspects was five stars. Leo's magic mark had the ability to control electric current and was immune to all electric shocks.
Dean saw that it was immune to all lightning. He knew that this statement was not rigorous enough. Even if the body cells transformed by Leo's magic mark could accommodate lightning, there was a limit. Even Leo itself couldn't bear all lightning. After all, lightning was the same as flames, there was no upper limit to its power!
Dean continued to turn down the list. Four-star legendary monsters. From Gilgamesh to the third legendary monster, the difference in ability and rarity was dozens of times. It was almost a fault-like decline.
The black magician noticed Dean's look and guessed his thoughts. He explained: "This' Gilgamesh 'is a famous legendary monster in the entire empire. If it hadn't appeared in our area, it wouldn't have been recorded in our Giant Wall Illustrated Book. This Leo is our local legendary monster. More than two hundred years ago, the third Giant Wall Lord hunted a young Leo and inherited its magic mark. Later he was transferred away. I heard that he went to the empire to become a high-ranking official. This made his descendants not only live a happy life, but also brought the advanced technology of the empire to our Giant Wall."
"I know, each Illustrated Book only records the legendary monsters that have appeared in the giant wall territory." Dean indifferently responded. He estimated that the real list of legendary monsters could only be seen in the empire. In the giant wall of Sylvia, there was only one five-star legendary monster, 'Dream Breeder'. Moreover, it had appeared before, but no Sylvian had ever obtained the magic mark of 'Dream Breeder'.
After finishing the legendary book, Dean continued to read the rare book.
There were 271 kinds of rare monsters. It was a rich variety.
"Dread?" Dean saw a familiar name. He didn't expect that there would be 'Dread' in the Giant Wall. It was one of the top ten rare monsters in Sylvia, but here, it was ranked 42nd.
The past slowly poured into his mind. Dean was silent for a moment, then slowly recovered. He tidied up his mood and continued to read.
Two hours later, the thick monster illustrated handbook was completely flipped by Dean.
"These are the parasitic soul worms of these seven monsters. Help me see where I can get them." Dean handed the eight names of the monsters to the black mage.
The black mage realized why Dean wrote down these names. He glanced at the book and saw that there were no legendary monsters. He was relieved. But thinking that these eight were rare monsters, he suddenly felt a headache. "These rare soul worms can be bought in black shops and underground markets. You can also buy them at a high price in the Magic Research Institute. But the price of these eight rare soul worms is not less than a legendary soul worm. Although legendary soul worms are hard to come by, but rare soul worms are usually priceless."
"Even if I have the money to buy them, I can't find these eight rare soul worms for sale in a short time. How can there be such a coincidence? Unless we go to the Magic Research Institute to buy them. They supply them all year round, but the price is half the price of a legendary soul worm."
"Then let's go to the Magic Research Institute to buy one first." Dean said.
The black mage slightly opened his mouth. He couldn't wait to slap himself.
"This … Which one do you want to buy first?" The black mage felt that his heart was bleeding.
Dean took a look and chose a rare monster called "Tortoise". This monster was good at defense and hiding. Both abilities were excellent. Generally, when a tortoise encountered a monster stronger than itself, it would turn its whole body into a rock. It could not only enhance its defense but also hide its aura. At the same time, it could also turn into a rock for ambush and sneak attack other monsters.
The black mage's eyelids twitched: "I know. I'll go and ask if there are any."
"I'll wait for you outside." Dean patted the black mage's shoulder.
The black mage smiled in his heart. It was clear that Dean was afraid that he would deliberately say no and deliberately eavesdrop.
The black mage disguised himself and entered the Magic Research Institute. It didn't take long for him to come out. He looked at Dean: "Our luck is good. There is one. I have paid the deposit and it is being dispatched from the headquarters. It will arrive tomorrow."
Dean nodded. He had already heard the exchange: "Let's go back."
The next day.
The turtle shell's soul worm was retrieved from the Magic Research Institute.
Dean took the black mage to the remote manor where the lightning filter was stored. He took a drop of the turtle's soul worm's blood and put it into the lightning filter. He was relieved when he saw that the final landscape of the blood was like an icicle. Although he hadn't used the lightning filter to see the cloned soul worm in the 'Temple' of the Cargel Giant Wall. But he expected that the soul worm had combined with the Aragami factor. The final landscape would be different.
The deified soul worm was a pit. Once it was used up, it would be hopeless to turn into an abyss.
"It seems that the Magic Research Institute has cultivated a lot of soul worms. It shouldn't be a simple coincidence." Dean was curious whether the Magic Research Institute had mastered the breeding method of soul worms. But it was useless for him. Even if he had a way, he expected that the materials and resources needed were not trivial.
It was a big deal. He had no fixed residence so he couldn't manage it.
For him, the most important thing was still power. With power came status and everything else. After all, since the ancient times, only power could lead to the highest level. It was just like in the olden era, for those who worked for a living, education was the best stepping stone. But for the society, money was the hardest skill. Even if you were a waste, you could be supported by the people with money.
For those countries, the strongest weapon was nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons had the capital to negotiate. Otherwise, no matter how good the country's culture and economy was, it was just a fat pig that could be slaughtered at any time.
"I can't kill you but it will make you stronger … If I don't die then the heart will be able to withstand my squandering … Seven kings of the empire, wait for me …" Dean's eyes flashed. The most efficient way to find Aisha was to become one of the seven kings and gather all the power of the giant wall to search the entire territory of the empire.
In any case, Aisha was in this territory.
Dean took a deep breath and cut a small slit on the body of the Tortoise Soul Worm. It looked a bit like a cockroach, but its body was grayish white. At this moment, cold, light black blood dripped from its body and fell into the wound on his palm.
"Absorb it and prove that my guess is right …" Dean silently closed his eyes and prayed in his heart.
