Chapter 369: The Floating-Space Tower in the Sky
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
With the construction of the Floating-Space Tower in full swing, the Alchemy Warlocks and Elemental Wizards of the Wizard Alliance were summoned over to the Wizard City. The groups of Elemental Wizards were building the huge tower on the foundation of the original Six-Grade Elemental Tower.
Every corner of the tower was enveloped with and guided by a majestic Mythical Power, and dense and close-knitted Mind Power Spiritual Strands covered every brick and floor of the tower.
Under the leadership of Cook Bay, all of the Alchemy Workshops in the Wizard City were building complex parts of the Floating-Space Ring. The complex Floating-Space Ring was composed of tens of thousands of large and small parts. There would be major issues if any single one of them was faulty; the entire Floating-Space Tower could drop from the sky. None of the wizards could assume such a responsibility.
Catherine, the Forest Fairy, had cultivated the Ancient Tree of Fairies which accompanied her. The entirety of the Wizard City had drawn up a channeling array to supply the growth of the Ancient Tree of Fairies. As seedlings of the Ancient Tree of Fairies were planted on the first floor of the Wizard Tower, one could immediately see that the power of Mythical Wizards was distributed by the seedlings of the Ancient Tree of Fairies cultivated by Catherine.
The brilliant rays of light diffused up along the channeling array. Wherever the brilliant rays shone, the tower, which was originally made with a special semi-metallic material, was gradually transformed into a wooden material. The ground and the exterior began to reveal an obvious wood grain. The whole tower was transformed from a dark-colored tower to a tower full of vitality. However, the interior structure hadn’t changed at all.
A group of Elemental Wizards sang incantations to activate the channeling array, while Catherine transformed into a Forest Fairy that was several meters tall. She set off a tsunami of Elemental Waves, the lights and colors of vitality glistening as she passed by, and all the plants in the Wizard City were affected.
She carried the radiating power of the Forest Fairy and as she surrounded the tower with the persona of Mythical Life, the whole tower kept on transforming from rough and boorish to delicate and exquisite. Beautiful wood grain spread all the way up from the tower’s base. There were even numerous branches and green leaves that started growing at the top. The Magical Vines proliferated rapidly over the surface, and the sparse numbers of windows were multiplied so that the interior became increasingly bright and spacious.
This beautiful Wizard Tower akin to a big tree appeared before everyone’s eyes. It was brimming with vitality, plants, and green aura. All was in line with the color palette of the Forest Fairy. The witchcraft boundary it released was stronger than before and had expanded a large area outside the Wizard City and encompassed a large plain outside.
Everyone inside the Wizard City found that flowers and trees grew rapidly between the sidewalks and cracks in the street, and the air had become fresher. Petals falling from the Wizard Tower floated in the air. Each fallen petal would create a special or magical plant.
The huge tower was a special Alchemic Life. It was a unique Mythical Life which was a combination of the Elemental Tower, Alchemic Life, Ancient Tree of Fairies, and Mythical Life Power. The power it emitted could influence all the plants around it.
Cook Bay, who was in charge of the construction of the Floating-Space Tower, said, “The first step was successfully completed. The second step is building the Floating-Space Ring and the mana pool!”
Over the next decades, after a series of explorations, continuous failures, and scraps, Cook Bay finally succeeded in creating the first Floating-Space Ring when everyone else doubted him.
On the day of the birth of the Floating-Space Ring, the power it exuded made the Alchemy Workshop, the land, and the rocks in the south of the Wizard City float and rise into the sky. Everything was revolving around the silver Floating-Space Ring.
The wizards of the Wizard City looked up and saw everything in the sky. They saw that houses, stones, flowers, and furniture that had lost their gravity. They were stunned. But one of items, the huge silver Floating-Space Ring, attracted everyone’s attention.
“This isn’t a Floating-Space Ring, this is Heaven’s Ring!”
“It’s a ring from the sky!”
Oakland, the great alchemy warlock, watched that scene and was completely overwhelmed by the charming sight, muttering to himself. The Heaven’s Ring, which was rotating slowly and irregularly, was reflected in his blue pupils, clear and defined.
While Oakland greatly admired the designer of the Floating-Space Ring, the mysterious wizard Randil, he also thought highly of the somewhat funny-looking green-skinned goblin Cook Bay. Oakland finally recognized Cook Bay’s talent and achievements in alchemy. He also recognized Cook Bay as the main designer of the Floating-Space Tower.
And what Oakland said was recorded in history. In the future, Wizards used “Heaven’s Ring” as a nickname for the Floating-Space Ring. Most wizards thought that the name “Floating-Space Ring” was too plain. They used Heaven’s Ring more often; it was their way to glorify and ennoble the Floating-Space Tower which reached the mythical level of alchemy.
The Magic Crystal System had been operating in the Wizard Continents for decades. In the past, Magic Crystal Towers were only being built by wizard schools. Now, countless huge cities had the ability to build the Magic Crystal Towers.
With the construction costs and expenses of the Magic Crystal Tower gradually decreasing, a massive quantity of Magic Crystals was continuously produced in each and every Magic Crystal Tower, and the blank Magic Crystal was recycled for charging after every use.
The newly manufactured Magic Crystal could be used hundreds of times, which greatly reduced the cost of Magic Crystals. Magic Crystal devices were popularized in many small cities and villages in the Wizard Continents.
In addition to being traditionally used in steam trains, airships, steam buses, and locomotives, through the farmland, farmers began using the new Magic Crystal Seeder to sow seeds. There was also a new mill using the new Alchemy Flour-Milling Machine.
There were large and small commodity workshops with standard alchemy benches that ordinary workers could also operate. In the cities, there were many rich families using Alchemy Fans and roadside grocery stores using Alchemy Freezers to store meat and snacks.
In many people’s eyes, it was an extremely magical era. It was a fantasy world that they could never have imagined. People could travel conveniently using all kinds of Alchemy Transportation. Although not everyone could have a proper meal, as long as they worked hard, most could live a richer life than was ever conceivable in the past.
The perfection of the system of the Magic Crystal Tower had led to the development of the third generation of the Magic Crystal Tower’s system, the Magic Crystal Network. As long as the Magic Crystal Network was used, mana could be transmitted anywhere the Magic Crystal Network was available. Magic Crystals could be charged, and Magic Crystal alchemy devices could be used to establish a real Magic Crystal City.
In the year 758 on the wizards’ calendar, the Wizard City, which was the core of the Wizard Alliance, began to lay its true Magic Crystal Network. However, a large number of alchemy materials were needed to build a Wizard City entirely soaked in mana.
“Will this cost too many resources? Even by the preliminary estimates, we will need hundreds of billions of wizard dollars, and the help of tens of thousands of formal wizards and a large number of alchemy warlocks, as well as at least sixty Alchemy Workshops and Elemental Laboratories,” Oakland immediately objected to the idea Cook Bay suggested.
“We’re not going to spend a lot of resources just to build a Magic Crystal Network, but to explore the manufacturing methods of mana pools. At the same time, we need to build a Magic Crystal City which will be the model of an Alchemy City and the foundation of the future Floating-Space City,” Cook Bay excitedly explained.
According to Cook Bay’s design, this step was also preparation for the future Floating-Space City. He wanted to transform the Wizard City into one which was fully immersed in mana. He could also explore the manufacturing methods of mana pools and make the Wizard City more compact, all of which were for the preparation of the Floating-Space City in the future. Although their generation might not live to see it, it would be the foundation for future alchemy warlocks to work from.
All the land of the Wizard City was converted into an alchemy slab by tens of thousands of Formal Wizards, hundreds of Elemental Wizards, and the Mythical Wizard, Catherine. They then spent ten years creating a Magic Crystal Network on which mana could be freely transmitted and transported. Even a level one wizard, with the help of the Magic Crystal Network, could wield the power of an Elemental Wizard.
Then the mana pool was developed by Cook Bay, who spent half of his life in the development of the Floating-Space Tower. Three key creations of the Floating-Space Tower, namely the Seven-Grade Mythical Alchemy Floating-Space Tower, the Floating-Space Ring, and the mana pool, were all created by him, one after another.
When the three were combined, one could see that the huge Wizard Tower separated from the earth and floated up into the sky bit by bit. It became a real Floating-Space Tower rising up like a giant in the sky.
Cook Bay stood on top of the Floating-Space Tower. While many wizards shouted and jumped for joy, his face also revealed an excited smile.
“I’ve finally accomplished this! Mr. Randil, I didn’t fail in what you’ve entrusted to me. I really succeeded. I made the first Floating-Space Tower on the Wizard Continent!”
