The Mage Tower was located on the southwest side of the island.
It was a fortress made of stones.
The path to the Mage Tower was overgrown with weeds.
Irin was just passing by in a hurry. He noticed that there were no traces of people around the Mage Tower, so he didn't pay much attention.
Now it seemed that there was something fishy going on.
After saying goodbye to Pippi's family, Irin headed to the Mage Tower.
He left Skinny at the farm.
This time, Irin didn't ride a horse. He flew at a low altitude. Along the way, he chopped a lot of wood, stone, and wild vegetables.
If he passed by this place, he would see a shocking scene.
A ferocious-looking farmer, with his hands behind his back and his feet not touching the ground, floated forward. Hoes, sickles, pickaxes, and axes floated around the farmer. Wherever he went, not a single blade of grass grew, not a single tree was left, and not a single stone was left.
The Farmer King was so terrifying!
In summer, the wild was full of [Berries], [Grapes], and [Sweet Peas].
These ingredients could be sold for some gold coins, but more importantly, they were all fruits.
"It's time to get some vitamin C."
Irin harvested along the way, fully displaying his virtue of not wasting, not hesitating, and not leaving anything behind. He ate all the wild fruits, trees, ingredients, and livers along the way.
Finally.
In the afternoon, when the sun was setting in the west, Irin arrived at his destination.
The surface of the Mage Tower was covered with fine cracks and mottled moss was scattered all over.
The Mage Tower was about three stories high. Irin only took a quick glance at it and didn't enter.
It wasn't like Yi Lin had too much time on his hands. He couldn't just sneak in and search every building he saw. This wasn't one of those old looting RPG games!
Irin took out a freshly picked grape from his backpack and washed it with water. With the grape in his mouth, Irin walked up the stone steps and arrived in front of the Mage Tower's door.
"Hmm?"
Irin swallowed the grape with a gulp. He was puzzled.
The door was locked from the outside.
The simple iron lock locked the wooden door, not letting anyone in or out. The lock was already rusted. It seemed like no one had entered or left for a long time.
"There's no one inside?"
Irin knocked on the door.
No one answered.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony. Sorry to disturb you!"
Irin had knocked at the door — he was polite enough.
This time, he activated his ability with a clear conscience and crawled through the gap in the door.
Irin entered the pagoda and spread out his senses.
It was pitch-black inside, and visibility was extremely poor.
In Irin's perception, there were rows of neatly arranged bookshelves against the wall in a space of about 20 square meters. In the middle of the room, there was a big pot. There was an unpleasant smell coming from the big pot. It was unknown what had been cooked in it.
"There doesn't seem to be any familiar material."
Although the smell coming out of the pot was very unpleasant, Irin was a professional when it came to cooking. In just a few seconds, Irin could roughly identify the ingredients in the smell. It was not like the wild or agricultural materials that he had come into contact with.
Irin returned to her human form. She walked forward and gently touched the pot.
Irin dug out a lump of wet dregs from the pot.
It was still warm.
Irin suddenly frowned. In the darkness, he did not say anything.
"Illumination."
Irin crushed the card and took out his revolver. After quickly firing a few bullets, Irin snapped his fingers. A few charged bullets automatically arranged themselves in front of him and exploded. A bright ball of light, like an LED light, floated in the room and expelled the surrounding darkness.
There were no windows in the pagoda. It was clearly sunset outside, but there was not a single ray of light in the pagoda.
"It seems that the master of the pagoda is an experienced otaku."
The ball of light followed Irin's butt.
Everything suddenly became clear.
Irin went around the big pot and walked to the bookshelves.
The furnishings in the room were clear at a glance. It seemed that there was nothing strange about it.
Irin even checked the room. There was no classic structure like a "secret room" underground.
The only thing that caught Irin's attention was the pile of bookshelves.
On the bookshelves, there were books with all kinds of covers neatly arranged.
They were filled with words that Irin did not understand.
"It's actually the type that doesn't have a translation."
He randomly chose a thick black leather book. The book floated to Irin's hand from above.
Irin flipped through a few pages and found that there were some strange arrays drawn on them. There were also some that looked like formulas that he had learned in chemistry class. After flipping through a few more pages, he found some obscure patterns. The patterns were even more ridiculous than hieroglyphics. There were actually many crooked patterns that looked like "flasks" drawn on them.
Wait a minute.
Irin looked and suddenly felt that the "arrays" on the first few pages were a bit familiar.
In the past, Irin had communicated with Xing Fei about the strengthening of "alchemy."
At that time, Xing Fei was concerned about the secret of his ability and did not go into detail.
But he also said that the core of alchemy seemed to be the process of "understanding," "decomposing," and "reconstructing."
The principles of alchemy were "equivalent exchange" and "circle."
The contents of the book seemed to be somewhat similar to the alchemy that Xing Fei had talked about.
There was no one around.
Irin held a book and read it with the help of the light of the "illumination spell."
He did not know how long had passed.
Suddenly.
Boom. Boom. Boom.
On the wall of the room, the candlesticks that Irin had thought were just decorations suddenly lit up with green candles.
Irin was suddenly stunned.
But what was worse was that it was still to come.
After the green candles lit up, the bookshelf in front of Irin started to shake.
The bookshelf started to move!
"What's going on?"
Irin closed the alchemy dictionary expressionlessly and instantly became vigilant.
While the bookshelf was shaking, a light suddenly lit up under a dirty blanket next to the boiler, making the narrow room as bright as day.
After the light flashed, a circle of light with splashing flames appeared out of thin air.
Inside the circle of light, a middle-aged man with purple curly hair and a red cloak stepped out. He had a handsome face and a short stubble around his lips, and a strange moan came out of his mouth.
"Ah —"
"…"
After ten seconds of awkward silence.
The man with purple curly hair looked at the uninvited guest in the room with obvious disgust on his face. He shouted at Irin, "Who are you? Get out of my wizard tower! "
The moment the purple-haired man said this sentence.
A corresponding notification appeared in front of Irin's eyes:
[Supreme Wizard of Gugu Town, Rasmodeus Stephen Strange is angry at you for trespassing into his private residence!]
[Rasmodeus Stephen Strange's Favorability -50!]
[Be careful, he may attack you at any time!]
"Get out!"
The man with purple curly hair, Rasmodeus, pointed at Irin who was holding a book in the next second.
A circle of light appeared under Irin's feet.
"F * ck?"
Irin should have been able to react.
But when he was about to take out his guns, there was nothing under his feet and the scene in front of him started to spin. The next second, after a moment of free fall, Irin landed in a pitch-black wilderness.
In the pitch-black wilderness, Irin still maintained his posture of holding the God's Secretary and did not move at all.
He fell into deep thought.
"I … have actually been teleported???"
Irin did not know whether to laugh or cry.
If such an embarrassing thing were to spread back to the guild, Molly and the others might laugh at him for a few days and nights.
The only scientific achievement left in the Great Engineer Tower, the walking [Crystal Pattern Study] living teaching material, the only "Honorary Great Engineer" of the Great Engineer Academy in the world of Uranus after the others died, the dignified president of the Apocalypse Guild was actually teleported out by that curly hair guy?
"Give it back to me!"
Just when Irin did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Another circle of light appeared in front of him. Rasmodeus reached out his hand from the hole and snatched the book back from Irin's hands.
Two seconds later.
The circle of light disappeared, and Irin's hands were empty.
This strange development made Irin stunned.
Standing alone in the wilderness, Irin was silent for a few minutes.
"Heh, interesting."
Irin scratched the [Laughing Mask] on his head and laughed happily.
…
…
The next day.
Irin ran to the Wizard Tower early in the morning.
From the change in favorability, Irin knew the name of the "Wizard".
[Rasmodeus Stephen Strange].
This name was long and hard to pronounce, so Irin decided to affectionately call him "Curly Hair Rasmodeus".
"Brother Rasmodeus, good morning!"
Irin specially made a [Dish of the Sea] and brought it to the door.
[Dish of the Sea] was not a very complicated dish.
The main ingredients were [Sardines] and [Potato Biscuits].
[Sardines] had a unique fresh and sweet taste. Together with the crispiness of [Potato Biscuits] after being fried, Irin was confident that this dish would definitely capture the Wizard's heart.
The best ingredients often only needed the simplest cooking method.
No one knew how to gain favorability better than Irin.
But …
"Get out!"
Perhaps Brother Rasmodeus did this to prevent Irin from breaking into his house again.
He was waiting at home early in the morning.
When Irin just brought out the fragrant and crispy [Dish of the Sea], the word "get out" came from inside.
"That's … a gem?"
Yi Lin reluctantly took out a [Topaz] from her backpack.
It came from the fourteenth floor of the mine.
Irin's luck was not high, so it took a lot of effort to get it.
"Trash!"
Brother Rasmodeus squeezed out two words coldly.
"Egg?"
Irin took out a fresh egg from Jill 2.
"…"
This time, Irin was instantly teleported away.
The teleportation ability that Brother Rasmodeus used was not on the same channel as Irin's "Crystal Pattern Spell". Irin did not even know when Brother Rasmodeus made his move before he was teleported away. It was extremely strange.
The reason why Irin was so interested in Brother Rasmodeus was because he remembered that Ah Deng had shown this ability in front of Irin in the world under the clouds of Uranus.
His left and right hands moved in slow motion, and a circular teleportation door was created.
At that time, Irin had asked: Can he learn it?
Ah Deng's answer was: Unfortunately, there is no time.
In other words, Irin could learn it.
Now that he had discovered a similar ability from Brother Rasmodeus, how could Irin not be envious?
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that such a strange supernatural ability would appear in a farming trial.
"Looks like the method is not right."
Yi Lin wasn't discouraged by Curly Hair's stubbornness. He returned to the farm and used his psychokinesis to automate the production line. At the same time, he pondered over how to increase Curly Hair's favorability.
