Making magic equipment was the same as making scrolls, and there was also a problem of success rate. The higher the level of magic equipment, the easier it was to fail. For example, Salin's remaking of the Witcher Spider had actually failed because the mageweath had damaged the Witcher Spider.
The mucus secreted by the Thunder Dragon was the main material of the Strengthening Potion. It was precisely because people could not catch the Thunder Dragon that the Strengthening Potion was so expensive.
The Strengthening Potion was a necessary material for making holy or semi-divine equipment. Mages were willing to pay any price to ensure the success of a piece of equipment above the holy level.
Equipment was different from scrolls. Scrolls were only one-time items. Even if the drawing failed, it was not a big loss to the mage. At least during the drawing process, the mage was also practicing the magic stored on the scroll. Whether it was successful or not, the mage could gain valuable experience.
Although Salin was excited, he was not crazy enough to cut off the mucus on the stone wall now. This could only be done after the Thunder Dragon was killed. The cave was so deep in the sea that ordinary swordsmen or mages would not be able to find it. Salin did not have to worry that others would have to go. This harbor was now his. Although the mages of Seriger Island were also very tempted, they all remembered Jason's instructions and let Salin decide everything.
Of course, Salin would not mistreat these Magicians. He still had great use for the Stabilizing Potion. To build this city, he needed to set up a large number of magic arrays and build 36 Mage Towers. In the process of building the Mage Towers, he needed to use similar potions. Salin was very clear that the magic towers in this city would most likely be guarded by the mages of Seriger Island.
Jason could not not control everything in the demiplane. The most important thing in the ruins of the demiplane was the Six Dimensional Space. The world created by Rafael had valuable research value, and the Six Dimensional Space could speed up the advancement of Magic Shooters.
Salin did not think there was anything wrong with this. Rex could not control everything in the demiplane at all. Without Jason's help, she could not even open the passage to the demiplane and build a teleportation array.
If she asked someone else for help, she might as well ask Jason to do it. After all, Jason would not take Rex's share for Salin's sake.
Salin waited patiently. The speed of the Thunder Dragon was not fast. In fact, it was slightly slower than many magical beasts on land. He only dared to enter the cave again when the Thunder Dragon was further away. Last time, it could be said that it was an accident. This time, his target was those Thunder Dragon eggs.
Time slowly passed. Seeing that Thunder Dragon had indeed left, Salin walked towards the Transmission Array, leaving Nelis behind. He didn't want Nelis to destroy the Thunder Dragon's egg first. There was a special method to collect the magic beast egg, and it couldn't be taken just by reaching out.
Salin was a Magician and would not make such a low-level mistake. Otherwise, he would not have left in such a hurry last time and would have gone to retrieve the magical beast egg first.
After entering the bottom of the sea through the teleportation array, Salin had already gotten used to the pressure. Using the Ice Patterned Armor was a good way to reduce the pressure.
As he swam towards the Thunder Dragon's lair, Salin was extremely nervous. He held the family crest in his hand. Once the Thunder Dragon appeared, he wouldn't be as defenseless as he was last time.
There was a distance of nearly a hundred meters from the entrance to the interior of the cave. Salin now knew that the silver substance was very precious, but he didn't have the time to collect it. He hurriedly passed through the tunnel and arrived in front of the Thunder Dragon Egg.
A layer of purple lines appeared on the red Thunder Dragon Egg in the seawater. Salin reached out and touched the black stones around the Thunder Dragon Egg, wondering if he should use the divine spell Life Bestow or just drop his blood to leave a mark on the Thunder Dragon Egg.
Magic beast eggs also needed to breathe, so they couldn't be stored in spatial equipment. Spatial equipment was equivalent to a special half-plane without air. Any creature placed in it wouldn't last long. Like a fish out of water, they would suffocate to death.
If a creature without magic abilities was placed in a spatial equipment, their blood would boil directly. This Thunder Dragon Egg would be difficult for others to handle, but Salin's Gift Ring had the divine spell Life Bestow on it, so it could contain life.
"Master, don't move." In Salin's mind, the Winged Skeleton's voice suddenly sounded. This scared Salin quite a bit because he was too nervous. After all, what he wanted to steal was the egg of a level-eight creature. This level-eight creature's lifespan was similar to that of a level-nine creature, and its attack power was the same. Salin's mood could be imagined as a thief in its lair.
The Winged Skeleton's voice was very cold. Salin knew that it was because Daniel's memory hadn't disappeared.
"Why don't I move?" Salin responded to the Winged Skeleton's words in his mind, and his hand stopped.
"You have to collect those black stones as well, or else the Thunder Dragon Egg will die," the Winged Skeleton replied.
"How do you know?" Salin didn't need to mention how strange it was. This Winged Skeleton was a creature that Daniel had summoned from the Undead Plane. Could it be that it still had memories of its previous life?
"Master … I, I once devoured the soul of a human mage, so I gained self-awareness. In the memories I obtained, there is something about this stone. This is a Thunder Stone, called Tourmaline in the Myers Continent. There is no magic core in the Thunder Dragon Egg. If you want it to continue absorbing electricity, you can't let it leave these stones. "
Tourmaline? Salin repeated the name of this gem in his mind.
Tourmaline was a relatively special gem, and many mages used it to create equipment to save the dying. Even if the heart of the injured stopped beating, Tourmaline had the ability to bring them back to life. In the Thunder Dragon's lair, he didn't detect the gems hidden inside these stones, so he ignored the most fundamental problem.
The eggs of the magic beasts were already alive, and since they were alive, they would have their own natural attributes.
Inside the black stones were Tourmalines, and this pile of stones was probably dozens of tons in weight. If Salin wanted to take all of them away, he would have to spend a lot of time to cut them.
No wonder the Thunder Dragon used this place as its lair. It turned out that there was a pile of huge natural Thunder Stones here.
Thunder Stones … Could it be that these stones contained the power of thunder and lightning? If so, in the future when he created specialized magic equipment, he would have to inlay these gems.
Salin patted the gourd at his waist, and a six-meter-long cyan stream of water drilled out. Under Salin's control, it began to cut those black stones. Knowing that these stones were Tourmalines, Salin was much more careful, and tried to cut from the outermost part of the black stones.
The black stones were arranged in a circular pattern on the ground, but the underground part was connected as a whole. Salin dug deeper and deeper, and only after digging for five or six meters did the black stones were finally cut.
With such a huge stone, Salin couldn't put it away even if he wanted to. He could only divide the stone into a one-meter-long section, with a total of four sections. The one with the Thunder Dragon's egg on the top was directly put into the Gift Ring, and the other three were put into the Demon Ring.
Salin was a Level Four Mage, and he didn't have the ability to open ordinary space equipment. These two rings didn't have any requirements for the mage's level, but the space inside was relatively small.
For example, Rex's God Luo Ring could hold countless things. Salin had never seen Rex worry about the lack of space, but he often encountered this situation. If Neris wasn't around, his two rings wouldn't be enough.
Neris waited anxiously on the Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship. Salin had been gone for too long, and it was just to collect the magic beast eggs. Was he in danger? But deep in her soul, there was no feeling that Salin was hurt. Salin asked her to guard the teleportation array, and she didn't dare to leave.
In fact, she was even more worried than Salin. These mages looked at the alchemy ship with the same fanaticism as she looked at the magic beast eggs. Thinking from a demon's point of view, Neris felt that these mages weren't very reliable.
Salin also wanted to go back to the alchemy ship as soon as possible, but it took time to cut these stones into the right size to put into the ring. The use of space equipment was limited. Whatever ability you had, you could collect things that were as big as you could.
Otherwise, if an ordinary person wore the God Luo Ring, wouldn't he be able to take away a mountain with a wave of his hand? That was something in myths and legends. Real space equipment consumed spiritual power when used, similar to releasing scrolls.
If you forcibly collected an item that was too big, it would cause the user's spiritual power to be completely exhausted, and the whole person would become an idiot. No magician would do such a stupid thing.
Salin was quite satisfied with the tourmaline he dug out. He also heard that in another plane, this thing was called a Thunder Stone. Salin calculated in his heart. If tourmaline was useful for his training, he could secretly buy it on the market while it was cheap. As for the raw stone of his cutting knife, he could directly use it as a material to build the magic tower.
In the future, his magic tower would definitely need a lot of tourmaline. As long as this thing could contain the power of thunder and lightning, Salin decided to spend a lot of money to buy it. He felt that becoming a level six mage wasn't far away, and it would be too late to buy it when he needed it. Also, buying a lot of the same material at once would immediately skyrocket the price of this material.
The price of tourmaline was moderate now because there were too many gems that could replace it. Once a certain gem's attribute was unique, even if this gem was everywhere, it would still be raised to an outrageous price.
"Bing, why are you talking to me suddenly?" Salin was processing the tourmaline while communicating with the Wing Skeleton in the Green Spirit.
"I have to talk eventually." The Wing Skeleton's voice was extremely cold and a little bitter. Salin wanted to comfort the Wing Skeleton, but he couldn't do it. After all, he had exchanged the Wing Skeleton from Daniel. If it wasn't for his contract, Daniel wouldn't have given up the Wing Skeleton.
Salin secretly sighed and said to the Wing Skeleton, "Do whatever you like. I don't want to interfere."
