After the Myers Continent communicated with the neighboring planes, all kinds of wars would break out one after another. Salin already had some ideas about taking over the East Sea countries, but with the Sea of Storms in between, it was impossible for the fleet to always carry a huge amount of space equipment for supplies, which required a large number of mages.
In the end, Salin repeatedly searched for things like purple gold sea urchins, but he didn't find a total of 100,000. It was impossible to equip all the troops with such equipment, so the location of this temple could be considered unique.
What kind of method could be used to continuously transport resources to the surface of the sea from 20,000 meters deep?
"Master!"
Neris reminded Salin that they had arrived.
After passing through a small courtyard overgrown with weeds, there was a four-story palace in front of them. Salin still couldn't see any clues about the material of this palace when he got closer. He only knew that it was a waste to use it to build a palace. This thing was much better than thundercloud wood. A random piece of floorboard could also be made into a magic shield, which was a waste for a level-nine warrior.
Walking up the stairs, Salin saw a screen. This screen was also a piece of magic equipment, and Salin almost couldn't help but put it away.
What a huge waste. There was a painting on this screen, but the painting hid a magic array that could turn this screen into a barrier more powerful than level-ten earth magic.
Twenty-four women were depicted on the screen. They were dressed in simple clothes, and were of different shapes and sizes. The only thing they had in common was that they all wore a Bestowed Ring on their fingers.
Is this the Oracle of the Goddess?
Behind the huge screen, there was a place that looked like a living room. This was not the layout of a palace. The interior of the palace was more like an ordinary residence.
Salin didn't put away the screen, but asked Neris to transform into her human form, leaving only the sword of rule in her hand just in case. The two passed through the living room from the side door in the back. Behind was a courtyard with four floors. Salin judged and went straight to the tall building in the back.
This was indeed not a palace. Salin found the study. Behind the study was a garden, facing a big window. Under the window, there was a cluster of magic plants, which always kept the study fresh. The fragrance of the plants kept the study free of insects, and the books on the shelves clean without any dust.
The ordinary layout was like the thoughts of a little girl, without the majesty of a level-18 expert.
Salin walked to the desk and sat down. There was a letter on the table. The envelope was sealed with a magic lock. The paper of the envelope was very ordinary. It wasn't difficult for Salin to set up a magic lock on such a piece of paper. The difficult part was that this magic lock had lasted for tens of thousands of years.
Salin's finger brushed across the magic lock, and his mental strength instantly permeated it. He also released the Magic Amplification Device and mobilized the power of the Cosmos Ring.
Salin's mental strength surged, but it was still madly absorbed by the magic lock. Even the divine crystal that Salin had prepared beforehand was turned into ashes.
Salin slumped on the table. Neris was shocked and took a step forward, but Salin stopped her weakly and said, "Wait a minute, I'm just exhausted."
The benefits of using the family emblem to train his mental strength could be seen at this moment. If it were any other mage, their mental strength would be depleted, causing some damage to their body. Salin, on the other hand, not only recovered quickly, there wouldn't be any side effects. His battle strength could be maintained at its peak, and it wouldn't affect his training.
Seeing Neris's worried look, Salin said, "This is a small test. The more mental strength I can input, the more benefits I get. The contents inside are different according to the level of the person who opens the envelope. This is a mage's method. It seems that Myers hasn't forgotten her roots. "
Neris snorted and didn't refute. She didn't want to offend the Goddess for no reason. The more she entered the shrine, the more Neris felt that Myers wasn't simple. What was the point of her talking to her heart's content now? It was better to wait for her to resurrect and stab her to death. That would be more satisfying.
Salin recovered some mental strength. He immediately took out a divine crystal and quickly replenished half of his mental strength. Only then did he open the envelope. Inside the envelope was a piece of magic paper. Salin was cautious. He didn't use magic to memorize the magic patterns on the magic paper. Instead, he observed it with his eyes and used the stupidest method to forcibly memorize it.
This magic pattern could preserve the magic paper for such a long time without changing its attributes. Its value could be said to be very precious. The higher the mage's level, the higher the demand for magic equipment. However, high-level materials couldn't be obtained anytime and anywhere. This method of modifying ordinary materials was the common skill of the strong.
If the letter left behind by Myers was used to make scrolls, it wouldn't lose its effect for tens of thousands of years.
The words on the letter were written in Ancient Myers. It was very convenient for Salin to read. The first line at the top was written as follows: Dear Mr. Mage …
It seemed that the magic lock's function was really magical. The way the envelope was opened determined the content of the letter. Salin's mental strength had been strengthened and released to a very high level. The Goddess Myers had fallen, so the magic lock couldn't tell that Salin was only a level-ten Magister. Instead, it thought that he was a strong person who surpassed level-thirteen.
However, the profession's judgment could not be wrong. The way Salin used his mental strength was the way of a mage.
The following sentence was the proverb that Salin was most familiar with. If one wants something, one must pay the same price.
Mr. Mage, the fact that you can come here means that you have given a lot. As a former mage, I express my admiration for your perseverance. Your efforts will be fully rewarded here.
A map was drawn below this sentence. It was a map of this narrow Demiplane, including some of the underground buildings. There was a list of items under the map. What Salin saw was a huge warehouse. Everything here was targeted at mages. In comparison, the gift from a Grand Master was too stingy. The mage materials left behind by the Goddess Myers made Salin feel lost for a long time.
If he wasn't a mage, he wouldn't be able to get these things. His level wasn't high enough, so he couldn't get them. If he were an assassin, this would show a different map. Maybe it could even give him space coordinates. This half plane was prepared for mages.
The Goddess Myers didn't play tricks. Mages had used her methods for tens of thousands of years. Salin was very clear about it.
The warehouse below the palace was an independent space opened by the Goddess. There were no armors or weapons, only magic cores, crystals, scrolls, potions, gems, and all kinds of rare materials. For Myers, these things might only need to loot one plane. For Salin, it would be difficult to collect them even if he spent hundreds of years.
They were going to war with the Devil's Plane, and Salin urgently needed these materials.
"Master, are we still going to tear down this house?" Nelis asked.
"Nonsense, of course not. We'll guard this place and use it as a fortress." Salin waved his hand and asked Nelis to follow him to the Goddess' warehouse to move the goods. Now, Nelis' spatial equipment was much larger than Salin's. There was too much empty space in the Twelve Movements of Purgatory. It would be a problem to carry living people, but it was best to carry these materials.
There were 24 huge warehouses under the entire half plane. Salin estimated that the size of each warehouse was slightly larger than his dimensional stone.
The dimensional stone had another use, and Salin rarely used it. Now, he asked Nelis to move these materials frantically to prevent them from falling into the hands of others.
His Magic Furnace could use level-four red krill's magic cores, but the magic cores that he gave to Mages were of different levels for direct combat.
Salin searched the magic core warehouse and finally found two completely different things.
One was a magic core that could contain divine power, which should be in the bodies of magical beasts in the Divine Kingdom. The other was the lightning magic core that Salin had always been looking forward to.
There were more than 600 boxes, and each box was eight cubic meters. Salin put all the lightning magic cores into his star ring and felt much more at ease.
In the magic core warehouse, the number of lightning magic cores was the rarest. It seemed that even the Goddess would find it difficult to hunt too many magical beasts with lightning abilities. With these lightning magic cores, he could forcibly activate the Thunder Dragon Spear when necessary. Even if the Thunder Dragon Spear was damaged, it could be repaired.
More importantly, Salin could start researching Lightning Magic Arrays. Lightning Magic Arrays couldn't be activated with a Mana Furnace. They had to be embedded with a Lightning Magic Core.
The Goddess' gift was indeed generous. After Salin had the materials in these 24 huge warehouses, he could afford to develop his forces and have more troops in the short term.
There were more than 10,000 mages in Metatlin, and at least half of them had to be supported by Salin for a long time. Mages could create value, but most of these products had to be used on the battlefield. They could not be sold for money or traded for items that mages needed.
Salin had to use his own warehouse to help these mages.
Mages did not need money. They worked for Salin and only needed magic cores for training. Without magic cores, these mages' training speed would slow down. This was something that no one wanted to endure.
Even the mages who did not accept support were unwilling to leave Metatlin. This was because the magic cores that Salin traded with them were only one-fifth of the price in Alchemy City.
Everyone had had enough of Alchemy City's exploitation. So, even though Salin still earned a little, these mages stayed in Metatlin and did not plan to leave. All the mages signed a magic contract.
In Metatlin, as a mage, one never had to worry about not having a job. Salin had too many blueprints. More than 10,000 mages still did not seem to be enough. Especially at this time, when all mages' treatment had increased by more than 30%. The alchemy factory operated 24 hours and produced hundreds of armors every day.
"Master, we're rich!" Nelis's exclamation was too straightforward, but Salin could not think of any other words to express it.
He was rich. This wealth was left behind by the Goddess Myers as a gift to Salin.
