Salin smiled proudly. His technique could not be replicated by anyone else. There were many mages who could cut with water, but he was the only one who could use Divine Fusion. The water in the gourd only consumed mental strength to control, so there was no need to use magic strings. It might be slow in battle, but it was the most powerful when used to cut anything.
Although a level-four spell couldn't be said to be invincible, there was hardly anything in this world that couldn't be cut through. As long as Salin repeatedly cut it, even Adamantine and Mithril would be ground by the water.
"If we have anything to talk about, we can talk here. No one will hear us." There were few daily necessities in Salin's huge warehouse, but he had prepared a table and a chair for Rex to sit down.
"Are you training soldiers for war?" Rex sat down and asked Salin a question.
"Yes, the East Sea Expeditionary Force killed over a hundred of my swordsmen and sealed the sea, turning this place into an isolated city. I plan to attack Lianyun City and use the advantage of warships to create trouble for them.
"Salin, you're wrong."
"Huh? Why? "
"If you were standing at the top, you wouldn't care about this. The most important thing for you now is to protect the safety of this city. The East Sea Expeditionary Force will soon be defeated by Holy Rock City. Once the War Puppets are deployed, those people will be a joke. Do you think you can defeat Qin Yin with 300 warships? If that was the case, Cloud Flow would have conquered the continent long ago, instead of struggling at death's door. The nobles watch the show every day and rely on the 4th Dynasty to satisfy the emptiness in their hearts.
Qin Yin's trouble is internal, and neither you nor I can solve it. What we need to do now is to improve our strength and wait for the opportunity to come. "
"Improve strength?" Salin smiled bitterly. "I've had many fortuitous encounters, but I've been stuck at level-5 recently. I feel that it will be difficult for me to break through within the next ten years. I can already feel the shadow of a Magic Shooter, but I can't even reach level-6. There are no shortcuts to magic training. "
"I'm talking about fighting strength. Magic Shooter? Let me ask you, you and I, just the two of us, are confident in killing a level-7 Magic Shooter? "
Salin thought for a moment. "Yes, as long as the environment is favorable to us."
"That's right. Having so many soldiers on hand is also a kind of strength."
"Speaking of power, I have to tell you something." Salin immediately told Rex about the raw stone. Rex was also shocked by the news.
She said slowly, "If that's the case, I have to carry out my plan."
"Your plan?"
"Yes, the Glücos Royal Family has many secrets that have been passed down through generations. They are recorded in the family's history, and some of them are about the previous dynasties that unified the mainland. I won't explain it to you if it's too complicated, but I've come to a conclusion after many years. From the First Dynasty to the Fourth Dynasty, the rulers didn't rely on high-end power to protect the huge country, but on magic technology. "
"Magic technology?"
"Of course, War Puppets were passed down from that time. There were also Sky Castles, magic cannons, magic chariots, warships, and puppets that could carry people. With these things, even the weaker humans could possess great power. At that time, people referred to magic as technology. "
"Many people think that alchemy flourished after the decline of magic, but that is not the case. The alchemy of the past was far superior to the current one. "
"Of course." Salin nodded in agreement. Back then, humans could cross dimensions and collect countless things that were difficult to find in the Myers Continent. It was said that real War Puppets were controlled by giants. They were a few hundred meters tall and could destroy any city with a kick.
Although the current War Puppets were powerful, they required the cooperation of many mages to operate them. Mages' bodies were weaker than giants, so it was impossible to make the War Puppets exert their original power. They even had to be modified to adapt to human control.
"Do you remember the Heart of the Sky that I gave to your teacher?"
"Yes."
"And the blueprints of Sky Castles. I got them from Myers' Temple. You also received the 25 magic array diagrams, the one you gave to Joey. Those were also obtained from the temple of Goddess Myers. I'm thinking that ancient technology might be preserved in these temples. If we can gather all of them, we will have mastered the secrets of the four dynasties. "
Salin frowned. "You want to look for the remaining temples? According to my analysis, we each found one, but there are at least 22 temples hidden somewhere on the continent. If we continue to look for them one by one, it will affect our magic training. "
"You also said that it will take at least two years for the mages of Seriger Island to arrive. We can't build a magic tower now. During this time, we still have a chance to go to another place."
"Only one place? Are you saying that we are going to the Purgatory Desert? "Salin's face turned ugly.
"Of course it's the Purgatory Desert. It is said that it is the place where the Goddess fell. It is also the center of the Myers Continent. I think the core temple will be built there. "
Salin was speechless for a while. He said that the Goddess had 24 temples, but in fact, he deliberately avoided the core temple. The 25th temple. The location of this temple was definitely not a secret. Most mages could calculate it, but no one dared to take the risk. The periphery of the Purgatory Desert was already extremely dangerous.
Looking for treasures in the huge desert was no different from seeking death.
The temperature in the Purgatory Desert during the day was more than 70 degrees Celsius, and at night, it would drop to -80 degrees Celsius. In such harsh weather, even mages would quickly exhaust their magic strings until they were exhausted, and they would not be able to release any magic to protect themselves.
"Rex, there is a saying in the Skochinyan: If you want to obtain wealth, you must take risks. But you are already a king, do you still need to do this? "Salin did not directly agree to Rex's words, but tried to persuade him instead. Rex's God Sieve Ring could already use its defensive power. It might be able to protect her and Salin when they entered the depths of the desert, but finding the specific location of the temple required luck.
"I know what you are worried about." Rex smiled, looking very relaxed. She took out a map and spread it on the table. "This is a map I got when I went back this time. It is the ruins of a temple. Let's go to this temple first and find the specific location.
Salin immediately understood. The distribution of the temples of the Goddess had a pattern, and the accuracy could be up to about one foot. If they knew the specific location of the three temples, they could use the magic formula to repeatedly calculate and find the temple in the middle.
Both Salin and Rex already had the coordinates of a temple. As long as they went to check the third temple and put the coordinates on the magic map, they would be able to calculate the main temple.
This way, they would not have to take a detour to reach the Purgatory Desert. He and Rex could go straight to the temple.
Although it was very troublesome to calculate like this, Rex brought over 100 mages this time, so they could split the work.
"I will use 100 mages to calculate for about three months, and we will be able to calculate the location of the main temple. Are you going?" Rex looked at Salin with a very special gaze. Salin was impulsive.
"Yes, but what about the safety of this city?"
"I brought an entire swordsman battalion. Your city wall is not bad. Even if there are 100,000 people attacking, it can hold out for more than half a year. Who would spend half a year to attack a city that can't be seen to be of any use at the moment? "
Salin immediately thought it through. He was always worried that his city would be attacked before it was completed. However, he neglected one thing. Any country or force that wanted to attack this city had to have a purpose.
Attacking a city for no good reason, spending half a year and mobilizing a hundred thousand soldiers, with no benefits to be reaped. Who would do such a thing? Except for the knights of the Holy Church.
However, if the army of the Holy Church wanted to attack here, they would have to travel by sea and did not have battleships. By the time they could get here, the mages of Seriger Island would be here. When the 36 Magic Towers were activated, even Alchemy City would not be able to do anything to his city.
"One more thing. We are not Magic Shooters, so we will probably need powerful magic equipment to enter the Purgatory Desert. You have the God Luo Ring, but I have nothing. "
"Didn't you …" Rex glanced at Salin's finger and realized that his Bestowed Ring was gone.
Salin smiled awkwardly and said, "I gave it to Shika. She became a Battle Priestess and could open the space in the ring with her spiritual power. She can't use other spatial equipment.
Rex said calmly, "The ring is yours. It's none of my business who you want to give it to. However, if we want to enter the shrine, we will probably need it. "
"Then how did you get in?"
Salin recalled that he had indeed entered the Goddess' temple because of the Bestowed Ring, but Rex should have one too.
"I used up a trace of divine power stored in the God Luo Ring. Once I use it, I don't have it anymore." Rex didn't hide anything. Her God Luo Ring was an important treasure of the Glycos Family. It was only passed down to the most important person in each generation. Also, this ring had another purpose. It represented the user's status in the Glycos Family.
Emperor Chanak gave the God Luo Ring to Rex, which was why Sephiroth was so angry. He had instigated the prince of the Cloud Flow Empire to propose marriage because of this. If Rex married someone from another royal family, she would have to hand over the God Luo Ring. If she wanted to keep the God Luo Ring, she would have to stay single for the rest of her life. Otherwise, she would have to marry into the family and have a child with the surname of Glycos.
"This is troublesome." Salin had already given the Bestowed Ring to Shika, and he would never take it back. However, this ring was the key to enter the shrine. The problem was that Salin didn't want to bring Shika into the Purgatory Desert. It was too dangerous there.
