[It's winter, but Salin will go out to sea this time. Yes, the adventure has begun. More people will join in. Whether this route can be maintained depends on Salin. Let's vote for him.]
"What about your power?" Salin asked worriedly.
"I'll continue to be a priest. I don't want to shirk my responsibilities as a Gaugass priest, not because I'm afraid of losing my power. Salin, it was the villagers who raised me when I was young."
"I understand." Salin hugged his daughter, one hand still fetching materials for Neris.
Salin only rested for two days before starting to refine the Magic Tower again. The Magic Tower itself was not lacking in materials. What Salin needed to do was perfect the lightning mageweath and enter the center of the Magic Tower, above the mechanical core of the Sky Castle, to fill the Magic Tower with magic cores.
The flight of the Sky Castle was definitely not driven by magic cores. Salin only wanted to drive the Magic Tower, and the consumption was incomparable. A level-9 magic core was enough for the Magic Tower to fly for a long distance.
The magic core of a Unicorn White Whale could be cut into thousands of standard sizes. As for Salin's Magic Tower of the Tree of God, a standard-sized magic core obviously could not be embedded into the magic array. At least 36 standard-sized magic cores were needed. The magic array on the Magic Tower of the Tree of God also needed six magic cores at the same time, which was equivalent to 216 level-9 magic cores.
If he really let the Magic Tower fly around, Salin's magic cores would not be able to last long. That was why he said he wanted to go to the Unicorn White Whale's graveyard. Salin understood that in future battles, non-magic equipment would be withdrawn from the battlefield. Ordinary weapons would no longer be distributed to soldiers.
Soldiers were at least swordsmen or swordsmen. If they wanted to decide the outcome of a battle, they would rely on the power of their equipment.
Salin's Metatlin City had an alchemy factory and thousands of mages and apprentices, but it was still not enough to support a continental war. Now that there were mages from Seriger Island, he could completely build an even larger alchemy factory and produce even more magic equipment.
The driving space of the Tree of God Magic Tower was automatically developed by the mechanical core of the Sky Castle. It was larger than the nine spaces that Salin had developed himself. If Salin replicated the Sky Castle, this would be the core of the Sky Castle. Back then, the core space of the Sky Castle was also controlled by Mages.
Salin quickly found the part that controlled the mechanical core. The insertion of the Class 9 Magic Core allowed part of the mechanical core's functions to be activated. This mechanical core might have belonged to the Second Dynasty, but it definitely had a longer history. Salin saw words and magic symbols from before the First Dynasty.
For a mage like Salin who frequently used magic to memorize knowledge, as long as he had read enough information, he could understand a part of any language from any period.
Salin felt a little helpless when he saw the words. Apart from flight control, the other functions were all special abilities of the Sky Castle. Because Salin lacked the materials to build a Sky Castle, he had to build a Magic Tower. He couldn't use these complicated functions at all.
Salin even saw three-dimensional magic words describing one of the functions of the Sky Castle — the magic cannons' blanket attack.
Salin himself had a magic cannon. Although it was miniature, it was very powerful. Its attack range was probably more than five kilometers, and there was nothing the magic cannon couldn't shoot through.
He didn't know what blanket attack was, but the magic words themselves had extensible descriptions. Salin deduced that the so-called blanket attack was an omnidirectional, multi-layered attack in a limited area, just like the next meteor shower.
There was a level-nine spell called Meteor Strike. The blanket attack described in the three-dimensional magic words was equivalent to releasing several Meteor Strikes in a row.
That would probably require hundreds of magic cannons, right? Salin yearned for the power of the Sky Castle. If he had such a city, Alchemy City, Holy Rock City, they would all be razed to the ground.
The defense of the Sky Castle was also different from what Salin had imagined. His Tree of God Magic Tower used the power of lightning to carry out elemental destruction. Any magic attack would be weakened, or even directly eliminated.
The defense of the Sky Castle, on the other hand, was similar to magic armor. Countless armor leaves were installed on the huge city, and each armor leaf was an independent defense system that could be replaced. Since it was an independent defense system, it didn't affect each other much, and it wasn't a single layer.
Salin read all the words that appeared on the surface of the mechanical core, and only found two functions that he could use.
The first function — flight.
The second function — landing.
As expected, Salin didn't think that he could use all the abilities of the Sky Castle just because he had obtained a mechanical core. He valued this mechanical core because he needed these two functions the most.
Although the Elven Wings were also flight equipment that could carry people, the shape of the Elven Wings was like a big bird, and its huge size could only carry an adult. However, the shape of the Sky Castle itself was not suitable for flight at all. The principle of flight was something that Salin still couldn't understand.
Salin would definitely not let anyone enter the control room of the Tree of God Magic Tower. If he wanted to control this equipment, he would have to enter this room himself. Perhaps, the water puppet was also a good choice.
The construction of the Magic Tower took Salin three months. What he obtained was the prototype of a piece of equipment. If he wanted the Magic Tower of the Tree of God to have offensive capabilities, Salin would have to continuously refine it so that every floor of the Magic Tower could play its proper role.
Rex finally arrived. In November, Salin's two children were already one year old. Salin stayed for three more months. He felt that he would advance once he returned to the Myers Continent, so he followed Rex and left the Hell of God's Punishment.
This time, Salin didn't enter the Six Dimensional Space at all. Now that the overall strength of the Myers Continent had increased, Salin now had a large number of Magic Shooters, and his own strength was not the most important thing for the time being. The enlightenment in Rafael's Magic Tower made Salin's path of advancement no longer difficult.
As for the Six Dimensional Space, only six mages could enter at a time, and Salin had to leave it for those who needed it more.
Not everyone who entered would obtain the same achievements. The mages of Serrig Island had accumulated a lot of experience. After coming out of the Six Dimensional Space, they would almost reach the peak of level-9 mages, and begin to prepare for advancing to level-10.
This process would not be very fast in ancient times, so the recovery of the power of the entire Myers Continent couldn't change too many things. Metatlin City was still a powerful collective.
It was precisely because Salin understood this that he listened to Jason's guidance and used his own strength to advance. What he didn't expect was that after returning from the Demiplane, Jason had already advanced to a level-9 Magic Shooter.
Jason had already completely remodeled the Shrine, and all the functions that couldn't be built due to the lack of materials were completed one by one. Now, the Shrine had become a pure magic building that could accommodate thousands of mages for training.
Now, only mages above level-4 were qualified to enter the Shrine, and the size of the Shrine Legion had also expanded to a total of 24,000 people. These 24,000 people could be expanded to more than 240,000 after adding the demons.
Everything seemed to be going perfectly. The two level-9 Magic Shooters guarding West Town now understood that their own strength wasn't what Salin relied on the most, and became even more respectful towards Metatlin City.
However, Rex and Salin talked about one thing very formally. Byrne had been captured in the Tanggulas Empire, and was probably being hunted by the people of the Holy Church. Most of the subordinates who accompanied him had died, and the remaining people wouldn't exceed ten at most.
Byrne needed reinforcements, very powerful reinforcements.
The only time they contacted each other was when Byrne said a secret message. Rex told Salin that the reason why the Holy Church was chasing after Byrne so crazily wasn't because he killed a group of red-robed bishops, but because he and his assassins obtained a piece of equipment that was very important to the Holy Church from Glory City.
If the Holy Church obtained this equipment, they might be able to allow the clone of the God of Light to descend upon the Myers Continent, and change the situation of the continent in one fell swoop.
Eleanor advanced to level-7, and was sent into the Demiplane by Rex. She would only come out after three months. Without Eleanor's help, it would be difficult for Salin to lock onto a level-9 powerhouse with his strongest attack. Therefore, Rex didn't allow Salin to participate in this operation personally.
The last time Byrne appeared was in the Divine Grace Duchy. From the Divine Grace Duchy, he could enter the Jialou Loulan region, or the Scotia Empire. According to Rex's judgment, although Jialou Loulan was currently under Qin Yin's control, Byrne was the most likely to enter Scotia.
Currently, there were already more than 20 level-9 Magic Shooters in Metatlin City. However, level-9 Magic Shooters weren't suitable to enter deep into enemy countries, as it was too easy for them to become the target of the Holy Church's encirclement.
To rescue Byrne, they needed a team that was well-rounded in all professions, and they needed to lead a certain number of troops.
Rex wanted to go personally, as her God Gauze Ring could sense Byrne's existence from a distance of three hundred miles. If others wanted to find this assassin, they probably wouldn't have that much energy.
Salin couldn't refute, but he was determined to choose a suitable team for Rex.
Sicar couldn't go, as he had to take care of the two children. Winged Skeleton and Nelis couldn't go either, as Salin was about to advance to level-8 Magic Shooter. These two contracted creatures would definitely achieve a breakthrough in power. It had always been Salin who had been restricting them, and these two fellows had to be protected for their advancement.
Daniel was sent to Rex. Now that Daniel was also a level-7 Undead Magic Shooter, he could provide a lot of undead for Rex. Zola's training of Sharman was successful, and Sharman took more than a year to advance to a Black Iron Sacred Swordsman. Although it was only a grade, if she wanted to advance to a Silver Sacred Swordsman, all she needed was accumulation.
Zola himself barely entered the rank of Gold Sword Saint. Salin sent him to Rex, not only because Zola's strength had increased and he was more reliable, but also because Salin had heard that Zola and the female sorcerer under Duke Guya had an affair again.
