Daniel looked pained. Sicca patted him, and he felt like all his bones were going to fall apart. What surprised him the most was that the Winged Skeleton behind him seemed to be afraid of Sicca. It actually took half a step back.
Daniel was depressed. He'd thought that all the benefits on the island would belong to him. After all, he was the only one who learned necromancy among the five. Salin and Rex both looked very rich and wouldn't fight with him over such a small amount.
But Sicca, this Caucasian warrior, suddenly said that he wanted to study the ghost fog monsters. He didn't dare to say no. The monsters in the fog were very valuable, but he couldn't beat Sicca and didn't dare to offend Salin.
"Necromancy, I know a little. There are indeed scary creatures in the fog, but Daniel should be able to control them. I did a simple search just now. There are no people or magic beasts within five kilometers. To be exact, there isn't even grass growing. Daniel, you look very happy. Tell me, what benefits does this fog bring to you? "
Daniel scowled and said, "Great benefits. You definitely know."
"Can be absorbed by the necromancy flames, right?" Rex was very knowledgeable. Whatever Salin didn't know, she could always find relevant information to add. The two of them had different learning perspectives and different legacies. They could actually help each other.
"I need time," Daniel said uneasily. He'd once dreamed of finding an island abandoned by necromancers. Now that he'd found it, he couldn't force himself to stay. Without Salin and Rex, he would starve to death on this island.
He didn't have any spatial equipment or food on him. If Salin and Rex insisted on leaving, it was impossible for him to stay. Fishing in the sea? Many fish in the sea would see him as prey.
Salin smiled and gave Rex a look. With his back facing Daniel, he said, "Daniel, go and look for it first. Maybe there's a magic tower in the depths of this island. In that case, we won't have to worry, and we won't need to build any lab."
Daniel agreed dejectedly and left with the Winged Skeleton. This island was very big, but with the speed of a magician, it wasn't too difficult to search. With the Winged Skeleton, Daniel had a pair of flying eyes.
"Salin, what do you want to say when you sent Daniel away?"
"Rex, you have to find a way to tame Daniel. There are no Necromancers in Bitter Water County. If you have Daniel, it will be very significant to your plan. "
"I know, but this Daniel is not very reassuring. Isn't your friend Arnie studying necromancy? "Rex asked. She wanted to recruit necromancers to the Kushui Prefecture, because that was equivalent to announcing that she would confront the Curia head-on and would never retreat. This would attract more mages to Bitter Water County.
"Aini? I'm afraid that's even more unsettling, "Salin said bluntly. His relationship with Ainphent was purely because he had taken advantage of Ainphent when he was at his lowest. Ainphent was a proud and arrogant person. If it was any other time, he would never become friends with him. After that, he talked to Ainphent's parents and left a good impression. But he wasn't sure if he could convince Ainphent to work for Rex.
"He tried to harm me before. I won't put him in an important position no matter what," Rex said decisively.
"Give him to me. I will completely tame him and make him work for you."
"Hmm? Are you sure? "Rex couldn't believe it. Necromancers were the most difficult people to deal with. This Daniel looked honest, but his mind was hard to grasp.
"Just a little. Let him gain some benefits on this island first." Seeing that Rex was frowning, Salin continued, "Rex, you're a princess, no, a king now. Sooner or later, you'll rule over a large piece of land. You'll have a large number of mages under your command. You can't do everything yourself. What about me? I need more time to study magic, and I can't go to the battlefield to kill enemies. Look at Daniel. He's much more useful. Help him make some white bone puppets later. If they are in front of the swordsman battalion, even heavy crossbows can't do anything to them. "
"What if he tries to harm you again?" Rex asked directly.
"He won't have another chance," Salin answered with certainty.
"Hmm, then I'll leave it to you." Rex didn't argue. Since Salin was confident, he would let him experiment. Daniel was indeed a magic genius, but which one of his subordinates wasn't a genius? No matter how hard Daniel worked, he wouldn't have a chance to surpass himself in this lifetime. As long as he could settle the matters in the Hell of God's Punishment, he would become a level-nine Magic Shooter before the age of 50.
Daniel returned very quickly. He was a little excited as he said, "There's an abandoned magic tower more than 20 kilometers ahead. But it's strange. It has six floors."
"There's nothing strange about it. This place is isolated from the mainland, and it's very troublesome to transport materials. If the mages aren't threatened by enemies, there's no need to expand the magic tower."
As Rex spoke, he gestured for Daniel to lead the way.
There weren't many roads on the island, but there were no plants to obstruct them. For these five people, 20 kilometers was a matter of half an hour. The magic tower stood on a tall, empty platform. The platform seemed to be a hill that had been flattened. It was more than two meters higher than the ground.
Salin and Rex had seen Rafael's magic tower before, so they naturally didn't feel anything about it. Daniel, however, was very excited. He bowed respectfully to the magic tower and mumbled something.
Salin asked curiously, "Daniel, what are you saying?"
"I'm thanking the master who left the magic tower behind. Do you know that if I train in this tower, I don't need to replenish my Flames of Death with magic cores?"
"Oh? Then I can save a lot. "Salin smiled and went up to the platform with Shika and the others.
The magic tower left behind by the necromancers was taller than a normal magic tower. Each floor was seven meters tall. A six-story magic tower was already taller than most castles. The black magic tower was built with steel rock, and the joints were joined with a magic binding potion. In terms of style, this magic tower was from the Fourth Dynasty, so it wasn't old. There were no more magic arrays around the magic tower. The entire magic array was hidden under the platform.
With Salin's cold vision, he could completely see the existence of the undead power. The magic array under his feet could control the entire island and hide it without using magic cores. This method was somewhat similar to Rafael's, but it wasn't as extravagant as Rafael's.
Necromancers were generally very simple and didn't have any desire for extravagance. Walking into the magic tower, the first floor was a huge space without any decorations. Apart from a stone platform in the middle, there were only magic patterns left on the walls.
"This place is not bad. Salin, you and Daniel go up and take a look. If there's nothing else, I'll set up an alchemy laboratory here and build the ship as soon as possible."
"Okay, be careful," Salin said, motioning for Nelis to stay. He took Silva and Daniel to the second floor of the magic tower.
The second floor was also empty. It seemed that Daniel was right. Necromancers didn't like to leave anything behind. Moreover, necromancers could accurately predict where the end of their lives would be and arrange everything in advance. As they walked up the third, fourth, and fifth floors, Salin couldn't help but sigh at how stingy this necromancer was.
He was already dead. Couldn't he leave something for the future generations?
It was a little different from an ordinary magic tower. It wasn't until the sixth floor that Salin saw a window. The ground on this floor was covered with white stones. The stones were pieced together into a magic array. Daniel threw himself on the magic array and whimpered, looking miserable and pitiful.
"What's wrong?"
"It's a planar magic array! Salin, I'm rich. No, we're rich! "Daniel saw Salin's smile and hurriedly changed his words.
"Planar magic array, don't you know how to do it? Is this level different? "Salin didn't see any difference between this planar magic array and the one Daniel had drawn before.
"Material, material! Salin, do you see this stone? It's not natural. It's man-made. You need at least a whole piece of Black Hair Crystal to make so many White Bone Stones! "
"Uh, Black Hair Crystal? You mean this? " Salin casually took out a fragment of the Black Hair Crystal. He still had a complete piece. This was just a by-product when Nelis cut the gemstone.
"My god, Salin, you actually have a Black Hair Crystal!" Daniel's eyes widened. There weren't many gemstones that necromancers liked, but the Black Hair Crystal was definitely one of the best.
"It was a whole piece, but I gave it to a friend. This is the fragment I left behind." Salin didn't put away the Black Hair Crystal. He just looked at Daniel with a grin. Daniel looked at the Black Hair Crystal. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Salin, what do you want?"
Daniel's eyes were about to turn red. Necromancers had their strengths, but they also had their weaknesses. It was difficult for them to make magic books, and they didn't have a suitable magic staff. Even making scrolls was difficult. Because there were too few materials that could carry Necromancy, the Black Hair Crystal was one of the best materials.
This Black Hair Crystal wasn't big. Just as Salin said, it was just a fragment. But it was enough to embed smaller magic equipment. If he continued to cut it sparingly, this Black Hair Crystal could at least store more than three Necromancy spells.
"I don't want anything. Let's … sign a contract. A magic contract." Salin then put away the Black Hair Crystal. Daniel anxiously clapped his hands.
Salin wasn't in a hurry. He didn't see anyone selling Black Hair Crystals in Alchemy City. It wasn't that Alchemy City didn't have any, but that Alchemy City probably had its own necromancers. When they saw this kind of gemstone, they would first give it to their own necromancers. Daniel couldn't buy this kind of gemstone even if he had the money. Moreover, he was very poor.
"Salin … I'll listen to you!" Daniel clenched his teeth. Other than storing magic, the Black Hair Crystal was also very helpful for his training. Especially since he had a higher quality Necromancy Flame. Using normal crystals would have almost no effect.
"Daniel, don't say that. I'm not forcing you. If you don't like it, don't sign a magic contract. I can sell this Black Hair Crystal to you according to the market price. "
"I …" Daniel was speechless. He didn't have money. This Black Hair Crystal was too valuable to a necromancer. If he wanted to buy this Black Hair Crystal, he didn't know how long he would have to wait to gather the money. That would definitely be a long time.
"You have to think it through. That friend of mine also practices Necromancy. When I meet him, I might give him the rest," Salin said and was about to walk down the six-story Magic Tower. Daniel reached out and was about to walk down the six-story Magic Tower. Daniel reached out and saw Shika glaring at him. Daniel shivered and didn't dare to stop Salin. He just shouted.
