[Second update. Two more updates!]
Salin arranged for Rex to make the best use of his time to advance. Ever since he had become close to Rex, he dared to use the Elemental Eye to observe carefully. Only then did Salin realize that Rex could advance, but he had been suppressing his own power.
However, Salin himself did not have any plans to advance. If he wanted to advance a single Magic String, it would take him several times more time than others.
What made Salin most depressed was that his badge needed more energy to be satisfied. His 24 little lightning dragons had all advanced because they had devoured the magic core and carcass of a level-10 lightning dragon. Their bloodlines had evolved to level-9, but they had to constantly sleep, eat, and shed their skin.
In this half a year, Salin had obtained over a hundred complete pieces of lightning dragon skin, but his badge was still empty. Without the lightning dragon's help, he wouldn't be able to satisfy the badge's requirement for absorbing energy in two to three years.
Of course, Salin could also get other mages to replace him. The problem was that the badge's abilities had increased, and the negative effects were even stronger. If Salin wasn't used to replenishing the badge's energy, it would be extremely painful.
If ordinary low-level mages used this badge, they would immediately go insane or their magic string would collapse. Salin couldn't take such a risk.
Fortunately, this lightning dragon had grown to a length of 20 meters. The shed skin could be used to make very good equipment. At least, it was what every mage dreamed of — a magic robe that could dodge lightning.
Mages didn't dare to fly on rainy days because flying mages could easily attract lightning attacks. If they wore a magic robe made from lightning dragon skin, as long as their luck wasn't too bad, the mage's safety could still be guaranteed.
The basic principle of flying for mages was to use the power of the elements. Once struck by lightning, the elemental chaos could kill. No matter how weak the lightning was, it would be fatal.
Although Salin had the Eye of Lightning skill, he didn't dare say that he would be safe in the air. Thus, when he was making personal equipment for Rex, he also made his own Demonic God Set.
Water Flame Alchemy's specialty was that it wasn't like using the fire element to make equipment, which could easily change the attributes. Water Flame Alchemy could keep all the attributes of the Demonic God Set, but it only added a whole piece of lightning dragon skin.
As for Eleanor, Salin did not dare to provoke her. He only helped her craft a special magic robe. When Salin came to Great Liang City this time, he only brought one set of Elven Wings with him. This thing was extremely difficult to refine, and its speed was also very slow. There were no more than ten corpses in the entire Metatlin City.
Eileen really liked the short robe that Salin had made for her. In order to test out the Elven Wings, Salin had also specially made a crystal mask for Eileen. Eleanor was a Level-6 Magician, so of course she could fly. However, her flying speed was much slower than the Elven Wings.
Within the palace, another Magic Tower was being built beside Eleanor's house. Eleanor sat on her Fairy Wings and hovered in the sky. Behind her was Zhang Gong Qi Ye. Elven Eyes was her innate skill. When her strength neared that of a 7th Rank High Mage, she could already see several kilometers away. Zhang Gong Qi Ye's attack range was within her line of sight.
It felt a little like home. Eleanor smiled again. The sky was filled with dark clouds, and spring rain was coming. On the Elven Wings made of Thundercloud Wood, Eleanor did not feel the slightest fear. The feeling of looking down at the ground from the sky was very good. Eleanor's Elven Wings spread out its huge wings. The wind blew through the crystal mask, but it did not affect her green eyes in the slightest.
Eleanor saw a well-built man walk into Salin's room. It was Gusin.
Thinking of Gu Xin, Eleanor felt very amused. This follower of Salin was really too honest. Moreover, every time he saw her, he would always blush. This kind of person could survive in Scottinya completely by relying on his own strength and effort that surpassed others by a hundred times.
Gu Xin walked into Salin's room gloomily. He did not only see Eleanor blush. As long as it was a beautiful woman, he would feel uncomfortable from head to toe when he approached them. It was as if he was approaching a huge furnace.
However, there were many such women around Salin, such as Trish.
Of course, Gu Xin could not tell that Trish was a male demon. After entering Salin's room, he simply stood at a place very close to the door obediently, more than ten meters away from Salin.
Beside Salin, Trish was helping Salin categorize all kinds of documents. Rex had entered the Magic Tower to break through to the level of a level-seven Magic Shooter. There were many official affairs in Great Liang City that Salin had to deal with. This was already the result of mobilizing a large number of officials from Kushui Prefecture. Otherwise, Salin would not even have the time to make the magic robe.
Salin raised his head and looked at Gu Xin. "Gu Xin, come here."
Gu Xin moved his feet with difficulty. Trish also found it funny when she saw this. If Neris was here, this Gu Xin would have to go through a lot of torture.
"Master!" Gu Xin's voice was very loud. Coupled with his appearance, Salin was also very happy to see him. This was a fierce general, and he did not have any bad habits. Although his strength was much lower than Sue and Zola's, he was very talented in leading troops into battle. Salin could rest assured.
"Your sword aura, I have studied it." Salin's words surprised Gu Xin. It was true that Mages were stronger than Swordsmen, but between Mages and Swordsmen, there were two skills that could not overlap. Salin said that he had studied his sword aura. Could it be that Salin could cultivate sword aura?
"It's too violent. It's destructive enough, but weapons can't bear it. In the future, you don't have to use a longsword. Here, take this. "As Salin spoke, he took out a short sword that was two feet long. This was a short sword in the style of Skochenya. Its design was a little simple and unadorned. The tip of the sword was not sharp. Instead, the two sides of the sword formed a wave-shaped blade that extended upwards. At the tip of the sword, it formed a gentle curve.
The dark silver metal was full of magic patterns. There was a magic formation on the hilt, and the end of the sword was where the magic core was embedded.
The ancient-looking magic sword with water patterns was not fancy at all. It could only be used by a Sword Saint. There were no threads or cloth wrapped around the hilt.
"It's made of Orangutan Iron, Mithril, Iceland Stone, and Yellow Gold. Try it." Salin said to Gu Xin. Gu Xin was so happy that his vision blurred. He could barely stand.
Even though he had handled tens of thousands of gold coins, it belonged to the mercenary group. Most of it had to be distributed, and he kept too little for himself. He didn't even dare to think about such a weapon in the past.
In the past, when Gu Xin was resting, he often visited equipment stores, and they were all opened by Qin Yin's people. He could only look at the high-level equipment in the stores enviously, but he couldn't bear to buy it. The short sword that Salin gave him was more precious than any he had ever seen. At least in terms of materials and structure, no Magician would specially make a special one for a mercenary like him.
"Master!" Gu Xin, who was used to being poor, was very excited.
"Try it quickly." Salin pushed the water pattern short sword forward. Gu Xin held it in his hand. The sword aura seeped into the body of the sword. It felt like his arm had been extended. It was very suitable. He turned his hand back and slashed. The silver sword aura emitted a fierce sound and shot out from the blade. With a boom, Gu Xin slashed the door of Salin's shop into pieces.
Gu Xin's face turned even redder. This time, he had planned to let the sword aura stop in front of the door and then dissipate. He didn't expect the sword aura to have such a large range and distance!
Trish laughed out loud. Seeing Gu Xin's embarrassment, Salin took out the sword case of the water pattern short sword and said, "This is a magical equipment. It has cutting and crushing effects. You have to familiarize yourself with it before you use it on the battlefield. Don't hurt your own soldiers. This is a sword case. You can hang it on your waist. It's very convenient to use. "
"Thank you, Master." Gu Xin took two steps forward and carefully put the water pattern short sword into the sword case. He tied it to his belt. The short sword in the sword case suddenly became lighter. It didn't affect Gu Xin's movements at all.
"There's another weapon." Salin stood up as he spoke. He walked around the table and came to an empty space. Then, he took out a war flag from his demonic god ring. The war flag was more than four meters long and dark red in color. Salin held it in his hand, but he couldn't quite hold it. It stabbed into the ground with a sound.
The flagpole stabbed into the stone ground. There were no cracks around it.
"This is the weapon you should use on the battlefield." Salin loosened his hand as he spoke. Gu Xin grabbed the flagpole. The silver sword aura seeped into the war flag, and he pulled it up with one hand.
There were magic patterns on both sides of the blood-colored war flag. Gu Xin didn't know what material it was made of. However, he recognized the pattern on it. There was a giant green dragon embroidered on the war flag.
"I made this with the materials from the Tiago Giant Dragon. From now on, you will be the commander of my Dragon Slaying Army," Salin said calmly.
"Tiago Giant Dragon …" Gu Xin didn't have anything else to say. He waved the four-meter-long flagpole lightly. The silver sword aura could be retracted and released freely in the war flag. It was as if the magician who made this war flag was a practitioner of sword aura himself.
"Gu Xin, when Rex and I get married, the people of Cloud Flow will definitely attack from outside the city. All forces must be mobilized to fight this war, except for you."
"Master, why!" Gu Xin's eyebrows were raised. The armor on his body was stretched by his muscles and creaked.
"Gu Xin, there will be enemy spies in the city. There might even be hundreds or thousands of them. We can't not recruit soldiers, but we can't guarantee that there won't be enemies sneaking in. The army will be fighting at the border of the city. Rex and I will be in your hands, "Salin said with a smile.
"I … will definitely not let you down, Master!" Gu Xin spat out these words with difficulty. He finally understood what being a follower meant. He was the person closest to Salin, so he had to bear the heaviest responsibility.
"The Dragon Slaying Army has 25,000 people. You have less than 6,000 now. That's enough for now. Don't worry. The main force of the army is now distributing new equipment. The replacement equipment will be given to the recruit camp. Your 5,000 people will follow me from now on. On the day of the wedding, you will be in charge of protecting Rex and my palace, "Salin said slowly. Gu Xin only nodded vigorously.
