Inside Abel's soul contract space, there was a new bright spot. Ever since he became an elite wizard and learned the blue dragon's ice crystal breathing technique, his soul contract space had expanded a lot. He had enough space to form a contract with a top-level spiritual beast.
"Master!" A strange and terrified voice emerged from the other side of the soul chain.
"From today onwards, you are my partner. Let me give you a name first!" Abel said in a comforting voice.
He thought about it for a while, thinking about how to name the new Flaming Rock Giant. Since Johnson was named after an action star, then …
"From today onwards, you will be called Jason!" Abel said to the flaming rock giant, now known as Jason.
At the same time, he connected Johnson, Flying Flame, and Snow White through the soul chain and continued, "Jason is our partner from now on. You guys should get to know each other!"
"You are Johnson, and I am Jason!" Although Jason was a top-level spiritual beast, it rarely interacted with other intelligent creatures, so it was not very good at speaking. Still, having a name was a new experience for it.
"Jason, this is yours. Use it first. I'll give you a bigger one in the future!" Abel took out a portal bag and threw it to Jason.
It was a ten square meter portal bag. If a wizard heard this, they would've jumped up and yelled at him. Even in the Central Continent, portal bags weren't that valuable, but a ten square meter portal bag was still a very rare item.
Abel just casually gave a portal bag like this to one of his contracted creatures. This made all the wizards who had a 1 square meter portal bag feel very embarrassed.
Jason took the portal bag. Johnson taught it how to use it. It was just a way to use the power of the will, but without guidance, it would take a lot of time to experiment.
Jason, who had just obtained the portal bag, quickly learned how to use it. He put the red stones into the portal bag and took them out again. He was having a lot of fun playing with them, which reminded Jason of how he used to be in the past.
Abel picked up a red rock that he took from Jason's body. He was talking to each other, and Abel picked up a red rock that he took from Jason's body.
This piece of red rock contained a high amount of special iron ore, but no matter how high it was, it could not compare to real iron, let alone the multi-faceted iron ball that Abel had made for Johnson.
That was why Leon's "tornado" was able to knock off some of the red stones on Jason's body. It was too difficult for Jason's body to destroy the multi-faceted steel balls.
Ever since Johnson changed his equipment, only the powerful attack of a high-rank Knight could destroy some of the iron balls on his body.
Abel took out a set of blacksmith tools from Valaya's ring. There was a workbench, an anvil, and a 700-pound hammer he got from the Holy Continent Blacksmith Union. The Horadric Malus was still in the Dark World, so he couldn't take it out right now.
However, he just wanted to test out the red stone in his hand. He didn't need such a good hammer to make the final product.
Abel took out a perfect red stone and drew a pattern unique to the Dark World on it. This was how the Dark World alchemists used red stones, and it was perfect to replace the earth fire.
The red stone in his hand contained fire elements, so it would take a lot of time for normal flames to melt it.
Abel placed the red stone on the perfect red stone with his power of the Will. Another surge of power of the Will controlled the red stone to ignite a high-temperature flame. This was why his power of the Will was getting stronger and stronger, so he could use his power of the Will to replace his hands.
The red stone slowly turned red in the white flame ignited by the perfect red stone. Abel used his power of the Will to transfer the red stone to the anvil and began to forge with the 700 pound hammer.
Soon, the impurities in the red stone were removed, and a red piece of fine iron appeared on the anvil. It was only 1/5 the size of the original red stone.
Abel sensed for a bit and realized that if this iron was made into a weapon, it would be able to add a powerful fire element attack to every strike. However, it would only be effective against enemies below elite wizards. For elite wizards, the fire element would not be able to do anything.
He was not disappointed, though. His original plan was to use this red stone to make a weapon and become a Grandmaster Blacksmith in the Central Continent.
However, after obtaining Jason, he changed his mind. This kind of red refined iron was more condensed than the fire element of the red stone, and its degree of hardness was incomparable.
"Jason, stop playing. Come here first!" Abel said to Jason.
Jason put the portal bag into its body and took two steps to Abel's side.
"Jason, your body is too weak, so I need to find a chance to strengthen it!" Abel pointed at Jason's red stone body and said.
Abel's words made Jason very excited. It kept nodding its giant head. It had seen how tough Johnson's body was. Although it couldn't ignite fire, it was countless times stronger than its own body.
If it had a body like Johnson's, it wouldn't have to worry about being attacked by enemies even if it didn't have any fire element.
The main reason why Jason didn't leave the Red Rock Mountain was because it couldn't. If it got hurt, the only thing that could heal its body was in the Red Rock Mountain.
"Jason, take a look at this fine iron!" Abel threw the fine iron in his hand to Jason.
Jason took the fine iron and merged it with its body. After feeling it, it became very excited.
"Master, can you put this on for me?" Its request was transmitted to Abel's soul through the soul chain.
"Of course, but I need all the iron ore in the Red Rock Mountain!" Abel pointed at the Red Rock Mountain and said.
"Master, my portal bag is too small. It can't fit!" Jason said as it tried to enter the Red Rock Mountain. Soon, it appeared in front of Abel and threw out a bunch of items.
Among them, there were eight spatial bags and the rest were weapons and equipment.
"Master, these were all left behind by my enemies!" Jason pointed at the items on the ground and said.
Abel didn't need to think to know what happened to his enemies. Abel took out the 8 portal bags. The biggest one was 5 cubic meters.
His vision was different from before. Apart from a few magic gems and some books, the rest of the items in the portal bags were trash to him.
Jason had gotten these things for many years. The older ones were already damaged. No one taught it how to use the portal bags, so it just threw them in the mountain.
Abel knew what Jason was trying to say. It wanted him to use these portal bags to store the red rocks.
It seemed like Jason was more desperate for the red adamantine than he was. He put away the items on the ground with a smile. Although they were useless, they could be added to the kingdom's treasury when he returned to the Holy Continent.
"Jason, find all the iron ores. I have enough space to store them!" Abel said to Jason. He then turned to Johnson and said, "Johnson, come help me!"
Jason and Johnson were both stone giants, so they had instinctive control over all stone-made items. In addition, Johnson's soul was powerful, and Jason was a top-grade spirit beast. This allowed them to search for the red stone ores at an extremely fast speed.
The entire Crimson Rock Mountain seemed to have come alive. All of the crimson rocks were vibrating, and all of the crimson stone ores were moving towards the surface like water.
Priest Big Horn, Ruin the barbarian, and Leon the half-elf stared blankly at the changes in the Crimson Rock Mountain.
"Wizard Abel is in trouble. I need to go back and save him!" Barbarian Ruin patted his mad wolf and was about to turn back.
"Ruin, don't give Wizard Abel more trouble. He has the 'move in a flash.' He will run away if there is trouble!" Half-elf Leon tried to persuade, but his voice was not very confident.
He couldn't tell what was going on with Abel. He couldn't imagine what was going on with the Red Rock Mountain in front of him.
Priest Giant Horn's eyes flashed with darkness. If something happened to Abel, he would be in big trouble.
While the 3 of them were still worrying, Abel kept putting the red rocks into his Valaya's ring.
Abel was still not very powerful. His power of the Will could only reach 500 meters, so he could only put the things he touched into his Valaya's ring. If he was powerful enough, he could put the entire Red Rock Mountain into his Valaya's ring.
This was because Valaya's ring was too big. As a dwarf's godly item, the space inside was so big that it could easily fit a mountain.
Piles of red rocks kept appearing on the ground, and they were wrapped up by his power of the Will. They disappeared on the spot and were put into the Valaya's ring.
This work had been going on for a long time. Redstone ores appeared very quickly, and one could imagine how efficient it would be if Johnson and Jason were to mine them.
There was probably no one who had the ability to make the two Stone Giants mine like today. Even if there was someone who really subdued the Stone Giants, they wouldn't be willing to let them become miners. That would reduce the Stone Giants' loyalty.
However, today was different. Jason was working to make himself stronger, and Johnson was used to Abel's orders. It had used up a lot of Abel's resources, so it wanted to serve its master more.
After an hour, the red rocks in Abel's Valaya's ring had piled up into a small mountain. He felt like the Red Rock Mountain under his feet was a little shorter.
Just when Abel thought it was over, he saw piles of intermediate fire gems appear.
At least 100,000 intermediate fire gems were put into the Valaya's ring by Abel. In the end, there were 35 top-level fire gems.
When Johnson and Jason stopped what they were doing and returned to Abel's side, Abel finally understood what this Crimson Rock Mountain was.
It was a fire gem mine, and it was a big one that could produce top-level fire gems. A mine like this was a resource that any big organization in the Holy Continent would fight for. It was probably the same in the Central Continent as well.
However, this magical stone mine and the surrounding Red Stone Iron Ore mines would take at least a few hundred years to recover after being plundered by him. Perhaps, it would take even longer.
Even so, this Red Rock Mountain was still a mine that could produce top-level gems. Its value was immeasurable.
If Priest Giant Horn knew that Crimson Rock Mountain, which he had passed by several times, was so valuable, would he still go looking for the unknown ancient ruins?
"Jason, this is a good harvest!" Abel smiled and nodded to Jason.
These 35 top-level gems were different from the ones he had synthesized. Every single one of them was too pure, to the point that he couldn't even take them out.
On the other hand, these 35 top-level gems could be traded as a currency between wizards.
Abel then took out another set of titan armor and a lightning spear from Valaya's ring. The giant armor and spear fell to the ground as soon as they were taken out.
Abel pointed at the armor and the lightning spear, "These are for you, Jason. Put them on."
Jason looked at the holy set on the ground and then looked at Johnson's gear. It seemed like they were the same, so it couldn't help but pick up the gear on the ground and try it on.
It didn't have Johnson's experience, though. It took a lot of effort to put it on. After putting it on, Jason's aura was completely different.
Unlike Johnson's white glow, Jason's glow was white with a hint of red. Its fire element had merged with the lightning element in the holy set, making it even more powerful.
Red was the color of fire. It was the color of blood. It was the color of danger. Because of this, Jason looked even scarier with the red glow.
Abel patted his chest with his left hand, "Alright, let's go. Jason, go rest inside the portal beast ring. I'll summon you when I need you!"
Jason walked into the black hole, followed by Johnson, Flying Flame, and Snow White. The black hole disappeared.
