"What's going on?"
"I don't have time to explain, let's go, let's not waste time. We won't have a chance once Fran goes crazy …"
After saying that, he didn't care whether Solomon agreed or not. He roused Haste to its limit and passed through the production line like a ghost. He used the production workshops as cover and quickly bypassed the laughing Fran. He didn't stop and directly headed towards the northern part of the alchemy workshop.
After a few minutes, Lin Yun appeared in a huge warehouse.
This should be a waste disposal warehouse. Damaged components were scattered all over the ground, and over a hundred abandoned puppets could be seen in the corner. Many magic materials that had failed to be processed had also been carelessly thrown on the ground. The two felt like they were walking into a garbage dump.
Dust, rust, and trash made the air of the warehouse incomparably turbid. Solomon had an unsightly expression as he pinched his nose, but the turbid air still made him cough fiercely.
"Fuck, you spent so much time looking for this damned place?"
"High Mage Solomon, don't jump to conclusions too early …" Lin Yun replied to Solomon while rummaging through the pile of trash.
At this time, Lin Yun looked very patient and focused as he rummaged through the pile of alchemy trash. He was actually in high spirits and didn't look impatient for a long time.
"Merlin, I really admire you …"
"You're too polite, too polite …" Lin Yun 'mouth twitched as he thought to himself,' If you went to that era thirty thousand years in the future, you would know how fortunate it is to be able to find something in this kind of trash … '
"Found it!" Just as Lin Yun was inwardly cursing, a few glimmers among the trash finally made Lin Yun smile. Lin Yun took a few steps forward and grabbed those glimmering things. He impatiently wiped the dust with his sleeves and revealed a few thumb-sized metal spheres.
These metal balls were about the size of a thumb. They were soft when pinched, but no matter what shape they were pinched into, they would immediately return to their original shape as soon as he let go of them. They were perfectly round, and even in this pitch-black garbage warehouse, they were still emitting a faint glimmer ….
"Merlin, are these the things you are looking for?" Solomon asked Lin Yun for one, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't figure out what these metal spheres were used for.
"Don't look down on these metal spheres …" Lin Yun wiped the dust off the metal spheres while casually answering Solomon, "They are the greatest inventions of Vaughn's life …"
"Ah?" Saruman was so shocked that he almost dropped the metal ball in his hand. "Isn't Vaughn's greatest invention the Hexagram Star?"
"The Hexagram Star Array is nothing …" Lin Yun disdainfully curled his lips. "You aren't an alchemist, so the Hexagram Star Array isn't worth a dime to you. But these metal spheres can directly increase your strength by a level …"
"What … What are these things?"
"These things are called Alchemic Mana Whirlpools." Lin Yun held one of the metal spheres in his hand. "This isn't an ordinary magic metal, this is Mithril Eclipse. It can only be produced in the Abyss below the 40th layer. In all of Noscent, it is the most outstanding magic metal with the capacity for mana. Vaughn spent a few dozen years to refine it into six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools …"
"Alchemic Mana Whirlpools?"
"To put it simply, an alchemy item is used to replace a Mana Whirlpool. For example, there are six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools here. If you can fuse with them, it would be the same as having six Mana Whirlpools out of thin air. Think about it, what kind of concept is that …"
"…" Solomon sucked in a breath of cold air.
What kind of concept was six Mana Whirlpools out of thin air?
Let alone six Mana Whirlpools out of thin air, even one Mana Whirlpool out of thin air would be heaven-defying!
He was originally an ordinary 9th Rank High Mage, but his mana suddenly doubled. If he fought with someone, he wouldn't even need to make a move, he would be able to scare his enemy half to death.
"Now you know how amazing it is …" With the six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools in hand, a rare smile appeared on Lin Yun 'face. To Lin Yun, these six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools were the most precious things in the entire stone tower. Compared to them, all the previous harvests weren't worth mentioning. Even the Crystal Scales were too far behind compared to the six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools.
When the Crystal Scales were combined, they truly had the power of a True Spirit Magic Tool. Moreover, it strengthened both magic and alchemy. With the Crystal Scales, Fran had the power of an Archmage and an Artisan.
But that kind of power didn't belong to Fran.
Lin Yun came from 30,000 years in the future, so he was very clear about the Crystal Scales.
Don't look at Fran's proud appearance …
It wouldn't be long before Fran wouldn't be able to cry anymore.
But these six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools were completely different. They were completely his own power. Multiplying his mana was the same as multiplying his power!
Thus, Lin Yun said that these six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools were the greatest invention of Vaughn's life.
These words weren't exaggerated at all.
Unfortunately, Vaughn himself didn't realize this. After the six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools were crafted, they couldn't be successfully fused. Thus, these six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools were shelved by Vaughn, and he even threw them into this huge garbage warehouse.
But in Vaughn's later years, the research of these six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools was once again put on Vaughn's agenda. After spending a few decades, he finally solved the problem of not being able to fuse them. Unfortunately, Vaughn was already old at that time and couldn't leave Crystal Island. In the end, he could only organize his research into notes and leave them in the tomb on Crystal Island.
A few years later, the Ivory Tower plundered Vaughn's treasury and found many notes, among which was related to the Alchemic Mana Whirlpools. But strangely, the Ivory Tower sent teams to the Four Seasons Canyon four times, only to return empty-handed. Thus, the Alchemic Mana Whirlpools became an unsolved secret.
In those days, when Lin Yun saw these records in the library, he truly hadn't thought that he would one day have the opportunity to enter the Four Seasons Canyon's stone tower and find six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools in that garbage warehouse.
"Our luck is really good …" Lin Yun sighed inwardly as he handed the 2nd Alchemic Mana Whirlpool to Solomon. "There are six Alchemic Mana Whirlpools here. According to our previous agreement, I'll take four and you'll take two. But I suggest that you fuse with one and leave the remaining one for Solon. This thing has a very high capacity requirement, one should be your limit."
"Yes, I know." Regarding this, Solomon was very self-aware. An Alchemic Mana Whirlpool would double his mana, and that kind of increase in mana wasn't something an ordinary person could bear.
"Let's go, let's find a place to fuse first. This stone tower is too dangerous, having more mana would be safer …" After saying that, Lin Yun put away one of the Alchemic Mana Whirlpools, leaving three in his hand.
Lin Yun estimated that three should be his limit.
As for the remaining one, he would leave it for William Merlin.
Lin Yun had thought about this. Currently, there were only three people under Lin Yun that he could trust the most: Faleau, William Merlin, and Xiuban. Faleau would focus on managing the Gilded Rose and wouldn't spend too much energy on magic. As for Xiuban, there was no need to mention him. As a Draconic Beastman, his casting ability came from his bloodline magic patterns. He hadn't even formed a Mana Whirlpool yet, so giving him an Alchemic Mana Whirlpool would be a waste. Only William Merlin was worthy of fusing with this Alchemic Mana Whirlpool.
William Merlin was now a 9th Rank Great Mage and could step into the High Mage realm at any time. If he fused with this Alchemic Mana Whirlpool, his strength would increase several times, and with the power of the Crimson Heart, he would be able to easily deal with a 5th Rank High Mage.
The two found a secluded corner in the trash warehouse, and just as they were about to start fusing with the Alchemic Mana Whirlpool, Lin Yun suddenly heard a light sound.
"Eh?" Lin Yun was startled and instantly cast an Illumination spell.
In an instant, more than half of the trash warehouse was illuminated.
Then, Lin Yun saw a Mana Ray flying towards him.
"Shit …" Lin Yun reacted very quickly. Just as the Illumination spell was cast, he cast an Ice Fire Shield. That Mana Ray was blocked by the Ice Fire Shield just in time.
At this time, Lin Yun clearly saw that the one attacking him was actually a broken puppet.
That broken puppet was lying in a corner of the warehouse. Its two arms had already been dismantled, and most of the arrays on its body were damaged. Only the Frost Ray array on its forehead was still intact.
But in the end, such an intact array actually attacked him!
This was simply a rebellion!
'You are already in such a state, yet you still refuse to obediently lie down!'
Lin Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He turned around and threw a few Wind Blades at it. Snapping sounds could be heard as a few Wind Blades exploded on the puppet's forehead. In a flash, the only intact array was destroyed by Lin Yun with a wave of his hand.
After doing that, Lin Yun still hadn't vented his anger. He casually threw a Flame Spear, wanting to destroy the puppet's mana source.
But after that Flame Spear was thrown, Lin Yun suddenly discovered that the puppet's mana source showed no signs of exploding after being destroyed. After all, even the weakest mana source would inevitably have mana flowing. Shouldn't there be some sparks after being destroyed by the Flame Spear?
How could it be like this?
It was as if the Flame Spear had stabbed into a corpse, there was no reaction at all …
