What Lin Yun needed to do now was to keep perfecting the Magic Array.
This was a task that required time. For the next half of a month, Lin Yun stayed in the alchemy laboratory, spending all his time on perfecting the Magic Array.
Spell after spell, metamagic after metamagic was gradually fused with the Magic Array's system. Following this fusion, the Magic Array was constantly changing.
These changes were very small at first, to the point that even Lin Yun himself couldn't detect them. But later on, Lin Yun could clearly feel that these spells and metamagic abilities had a significant increase in power after being fused with the Magic Array.
Moreover, as more and more spells and metamagic abilities were fused, Lin Yun could already try to combine and arrange them.
This was the most frightening part of the Magic Array.
The complete form of the Magic Array could be said to be the most complicated Magic Conducting Rune in this world, because the entire Magic Array itself was composed of a large number of spells and metamagic abilities. It was like a huge and complicated alchemy array. Great Mages with the Magic Array could freely combine these spells and metamagic abilities, and every correct combination would push their power to a whole new level.
Unfortunately, Lin Yun's current Magic Array was far from being in its complete form.
Not only was there only one Magic Conducting Rune, but that Magic Conducting Rune was also very fragile. He could only fuse some relatively low tier spells and metamagic abilities at the moment. Lin Yun would have to wait until he became a 5th Rank Great Mage before he dared to try fusing a powerful metamagic ability like Elemental Incarnation into the Magic Array.
The 5th Rank was a very important rank for every Great Mage.
Once a Great Mage reached the 5th Rank, it meant that half of the Magic Conducting Rune system had been completed. Regardless of what kind of Magic Conducting Rune they had, they should be able to display their initial power.
This was especially true for Great Mages with the Magic Array.
A 5th Rank Great Mage would have five Magic Arrays. Not only would they be able to fuse more spells and metamagic abilities, but they would also be able to thoroughly stabilize the Magic Array. From that moment on, a Great Mage with a Magic Array would have the power to contend against a High Mage.
However, for Lin Yun, level five was still quite far away …
Possessing this most complicated Magic Conducting Rune was both a blessing and a curse for Lin Yun. Fortunately, Lin Yun would be able to contend against a High Mage at the 5th Rank. Unfortunately, Lin Yun's path would be much more difficult than that of an ordinary Great Mage.
The first Magic Array took Lin Yun more than half a month to complete.
In that half a month, Lin Yun fused a total of five spells and four metamagic abilities, thoroughly perfecting his first Magic Array. Such a shocking amount of fusion would be considered shocking even during the peak of the magic civilization.
Lin Yun was pale and haggard when he left the alchemy laboratory. Even his steps were a bit shaky, as if he would fall if he wasn't careful.
But his bloodshot eyes were frighteningly bright, and there were even faint runes roaming within them.
If Solomon had been there, he would have been able to see with a glance that this young mage's strength had completely changed compared to half a month ago. They were both 1st Rank Great Mages, but the Lin Yun from half a month ago and the Lin Yun from half a month ago weren't on the same level.
This was the change brought about by the completion of the Magic Array.
After Lin Yun came out of the alchemy laboratory, he originally wanted to look for the old butler and ask him how the business was doing.
But just as he stepped out of the alchemy laboratory, he saw a thin silhouette waiting at the entrance for a long time.
"Ah, Boss Merlin, you finally came out …" Remy seemed to have been waiting for a long time. He looked drowsy, and when he saw Lin Yun coming out, he raised his hand to rub his eyes before daring to greet him.
"Waited for a long time?" Seeing Remy's appearance, Lin Yun couldn't help frowning.
Because Lin Yun knew that the old butler had repeatedly told him that no one was allowed to disturb him when he entered the alchemy laboratory. Even if something big happened, it would have to wait until he came out.
Remy had almost fallen asleep waiting at the entrance, so there was only one possibility … Something must have happened in the Gilded Rose.
"No … Not long."
"Let's go, we'll talk on the way." Lin Yun led Remy downstairs while asking without turning his head, "Did something happen in the shop?"
"Yes, yes, the goods we sent to Edge Rift were seized by the Viper Nest."
"Viper Nest?" Lin Yun frowned.
Not long ago, Lin Yun had used a bottle of Ghost Potion in exchange for the cooperation of the Silver Moon Mercenaries, one of which was the purchase of alchemy items. During this time, the Silver Moon Mercenaries had already purchased a lot of alchemy items from the Gilded Rose.
At first, these alchemy items only needed to be sent to the Lion Monarch Street, but after the Silver Moon Mercenaries went to Edge Rift, the transportation of alchemy items became a big problem for the Gilded Rose. After all, it was only an alchemy shop, it was far from being like the Flashing Gold chamber of commerce, which had its own armed caravan.
Ten shipments in a row consumed a lot of manpower and resources, and they even suffered two robberies. Fortunately, the Silver Moon Mercenaries were able to provide support in time, so there were no unnecessary losses.
But those two robberies were only from ordinary bandit groups, no more than a few dozen people. They were easily eliminated by the Silver Moon Mercenaries.
As for those famous forces of Thousand Sails City, none of them dared to get involved. After all, they were partners of the Silver Moon Mercenaries. Ordinary forces wouldn't even try to hide from them, so who would be reckless enough to get involved?
Not to mention the Viper Nest …
"How could it be the Viper Nest?" To be honest, Lin Yun really couldn't understand. 'Did the Viper Nest take the wrong medicine? How could they dare to seize the Silver Moon Mercenaries' alchemy items? Aren't they afraid of Sasu coming knocking on their door with his greatsword? '
"Oh right, Remy, when did this happen?"
"Yesterday afternoon, the five accompanying Apprentice Alchemists were also detained. Boss Pave just left to talk to the Viper Nest about releasing them."
"Alright, I understand."
