Garon nodded.
This was a necessary item to build a high-level Wizard Tower. Just this item alone cost twenty million. Although it was somewhat exaggerated, one could imagine how expensive the materials needed to build a high-level Wizard Tower were.
After he met Asilia, he received some compensation from the Silver Tower. It was a bunch of rare treasures that were worth hundreds of millions. They were all shiny types that the Dragon Tribe loved.
Then, with this wealth, he began to search around the city for the materials needed to build the Wizard Tower. He calculated the cost himself.
After a few days, he did a rough calculation. The total cost was much higher than what the Soaring Wing King had said.
At the same time, he also gained a thorough understanding of the environment of Snow City.
This city was filled with mercenaries and travelers between level two to level five. Most of them were Battle Mages, Mercenary Warriors, Berserkers, Barbarians and Dwarves, followed by humans. Most of the purebred humans were high-level. Then, there were those with humanoid bloodlines, such as half-elves, barbarians and humans. There were also many mixed-blood humans and Succubi. Just like the Wizard Apprentice who welcomed Garon at the beginning, she actually had a thin Succubi bloodline.
Generally, pure humans who dared to come here were at least Great Wizards. This was the Wizard City. Great Wizards were not very valuable here. They could be seen everywhere.
At a glance, one could also sense one or two vague auras that could make Garon feel dangerous.
"No wonder Snow City can be compared to the entire Empire as a city."
Garon finally figured out the price of the items. He went straight to the bookstore and bought a complete set of Arcane Basic Spell Encyclopedia. He spent more than a hundred thousand gold coins and asked Ken to buy all kinds of basic materials for spell research according to the encyclopedia.
He then brought Annie to the Wizard Tower in the inner city where the Soaring Wing King was.
After passing through the Dragon City, it was the Dwarf City. As they were not allowed to land, Garon directly used the teleportation circle at the entrance of the Dwarf City and chose to go directly to the address left by the Soaring Wing King.
The teleportation speed was very fast. Garon directly arrived at the Soaring Wing King's Wizard Tower — Black Crow Tower.
*****
"Please wait for a moment. The Tower Master is giving the honorable guest a fixed treatment every day."
The mage apprentice was a young, beautiful, and voluptuous girl. After giving Garon a cup of hot tea, she explained in a low voice.
Garon's body had shrunk to the size of a Dragon Whelp, so it was not a problem for him to sit in a chair that was one size larger. Annie, on the other hand, could only lie on the ground to rest. A pair of dragon eyes were vigilantly looking around at all times.
The Black Crow Tower was one of the tallest among the hundreds of Wizard Towers. This was also related to the status of the Soaring Wing King. He was a Councilor of the Snow City and also a Councilor of the Gray Shadow Council. He was one of the few people with the highest authority in the entire Snow City.
After all, a level-12 being could not just appear anywhere. With his strength, reaching this level was not a big deal.
Garon waited for a while. Soon enough, Soaring Wing King appeared on this floor with his walking stick.
He looked a little tired, as if he had consumed a lot of energy.
Garon stood up.
"Honorable Councilor Soaring Wing King, good day."
"Powerful White Dragon genius, I've heard of your reputation when I just arrived in the city. Hehe, are you here to treat someone?" As a famous Healer, he was one of the best in the entire Snow City.
Both of them pretended that they did not know each other.
"Of course not. I'm here because of this." Garon flicked his fingernail. Suddenly, a cloud of white mist flew out from his fingertip and automatically formed a clear pattern in mid-air. It showed his superb cold control skills.
The pattern that was displayed disappeared in a flash. This was a meaningless symbol that both of them had agreed on.
This meant that Garon was ready to fulfill the contract.
Soaring Wing King revealed a smile.
"Understood. When do you plan to go?" He was asking about going to the Abyss to participate in the Blood War in the Ten Thousand Abyss Plains.
"Anytime is fine. I'll be ready at any time," Garon replied with certainty. He needed to improve himself as soon as possible in fifty years. Hunting souls in the Blood War was the best choice and the fastest way. The premise was that he did not die.
"You should prepare yourself. The supplies you need must not be lacking. Otherwise, you'll know how precious they are when you don't have them when you need them, "Soaring Wing King reminded him kindly.
Garon nodded.
The reason why he came here was because he wanted to purchase some superior healing medicine from Soaring Wing King. The Abyss Blood War was a terrifying war that involved both low-level and high-level experts. Even if he was a high-level Level 9 existence, he could not underestimate the harsh environment there.
He did not want to stay in Snow City for a second longer. Garon had an intuition that the Dragon Wizard Asilia would not let him off so easily. He decided to enter the Blood War as soon as possible.
Both of them entered a room alone. Soaring Wing King scattered a large amount of isolation powder and erected a barrier to isolate Divine Power, forming an absolutely safe environment for conversation.
"Alright, I've prepared all the things you need. High-level Teleportation Scroll, Positioning Stone, High-level Recovery Ointment, and Temporary Protection Guard. Because you're immune to Level Nine Spells, many Enhancement Scrolls will not work on you." Soaring Wing King reminded him, "You must be careful. That's the eternal battlefield between Demon Barthez and Tanar 'ri. Try not to expose your full strength. Whether it's the Abyss or the Nine Layers of Hell, there are existences that are comparable to Demigods. Even the Evil Gods live in one of the layers. I don't want you to die there early and your body to be made into materials in the end. If that's the case, our contract will be ruined. I'll ask you one last time. Are you sure you want to go to the Blood War? "
He asked seriously.
"I'm sure," Garon nodded. He knew that the Blood War was dangerous, but it was also the place where he could grow the fastest. In the Main Material Plane, he needed too many Magic Nuclei to reach the level he wanted.
Recently, he felt that his body was undergoing some strange changes. Spikes began to grow on his back. It was obvious that he was about to enter a new state of evolution.
Moreover, he wanted to see for himself what the legendary Tanar 'ri and Barthez, the powerful and terrifying war between demons and devils was like.
Whether it was Potential Points or the Enneahedron, he needed to steal a large amount of souls. This was a big taboo in the Main Material Plane as it would be easily discovered by the Gods. However, it did not matter in the Abyss.
"It's not easy to find someone more suitable than you. I wish you good luck then," Soaring Wing King said with some regret. "However, I believe that Demon Kings like us are existences that have been through hundreds of battles. It's impossible for us to just fall in a world like this."
"Of course," Garon grinned.
"This is yours," Soaring Wing King handed over a little ring. Garon took it and scanned the contents inside. All the preparations, including the agreed upon Semi-God Artifact, were in there. Food, water, medicine and so on.
"Do you need armor and weapons?"
"What kind of armor is harder than my scales? Weapons? My claws are scarier than any weapon, "Garon said casually.
"That's true," Soaring Wing King nodded. "So what's the specific time? I need to prepare for it. "
"Let's do it today." Although he had only stayed in a small corner of Snow City for a few days and did not fully experience the atmosphere of the entire city, Garon did not want to stay here any longer. He felt weird being targeted by the Dragon Master.
"Tell my two Dragon Guards the truth. After I leave, I don't want to bring two burdens with me."
"You call a Level Eight being a burden. How innocent." Soaring Wing King shook his head. "Also, you have to be careful when using the Despair Skull of Annas. In the Abyss, almost all demons and devils are very sensitive to souls and beliefs. It's easy to be discovered. "
"I understand." Garon nodded. Other than the huge Potential Aura, the biggest function of this thing was to gather souls. It could be used to collect souls on the battlefield but it had to be hidden. After all, collecting souls was like snatching meat from the mouth of the Abyss.
"Do you have any specific information about the Abyss?"
"Only the Ten Thousand Abyss Plains. There are many steel fortresses built by devils there but the management is very strict. You can only join the war with the demons," Soaring Wing King explained.
"What about the Demon Lords who went there before?"
"There's no contact. The chaotic nature of the Abyss will cut off all continuous contact with the Main Material Plane. We can't maintain contact at all times."
Garon asked about the situation and information about the Abyss one by one. He compared it with the information he saw from Ann.
There were mainly two types of creatures at the bottom of the Abyss. One was the Demon Worms, which were the so-called Abyss Maggots. They were the most basic form of all demons and would gradually evolve with the survival of the fittest.
The second type was the Petitioners.
They were a type of distorted soul that was formed after the souls were corrupted by the Abyss. They were the lowest laborers and were enslaved. They were even used as materials to make entropy ships to fill various creations.
After that, there were all kinds of demons with strange forms. Among them, the Tanar 'ri Demons were the most powerful race and were also the main force in the war against the devils in the Blood War.
After having a rough understanding of the situation, Garon found some maps of the Abyss. The terrain of the Abyss would also change randomly. It was basically useless to keep it for a long time.
From the Soaring Wing King, he also received an additional piece of news. The largest Space-Time Dimensional Crack had split open somewhere in the South. A large number of Void Creatures had already started to surge out. The priests of the various Gods had already headed there. There were even Priests and Bishops that had appeared.
The Void Demon Masters and True Souls had already started preparing for a large-scale war. They were trying their best to take over a territory as their base.
Taking advantage of the fact that all the Gods' attention was on that side, the hidden Demon Lords could also move and grow as quickly as possible. After fifty years, they would be able to make a move together.
After everything was clear, Garon asked the two Dragon Guards to return immediately. He stayed behind to learn from Soaring Wing King about the various conditions to improve his Arcane Art. Of course, he had to pay for it. Finally, he returned to the hotel with the Despairing Skull and the signed contract.
Before heading to the Blood War, the only thing he needed to do was to absorb a large amount of potential aura from the Despairing Skull. If everything went well, he might be able to make a new leap before and after the Blood War.
