Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Now, Mas was not sure if Norton was dead or alive.
He had never come into contact with alchemy bombs before.
Looking at the mushroom cloud formed by the huge explosion in front of him, Mas was certain that the alchemy bomb that Warren had detonated was at least Level 6, and it was very likely to be at the Legendary stage.
Whether Norton could withstand it or not, Mas did not know.
Mas waved his right hand, and the water droplets gathered together, turning into a water dragon that rushed towards the mushroom cloud to extinguish the flames.
At this moment, a pitch-black figure flew out of the mushroom cloud.
When Mas saw him, a smile spread across his face.
“That boy Norton is really lucky!” Mas exclaimed.
He managed to survive even though he was at the center of the alchemy bomb.
However, Norton looked very pathetic. He was covered in burns from head to toe, and the feathers on his wings were about to be burned away.
Nevertheless, at least Norton was still alive.
Norton flew to Mas and looked at the mushroom cloud that was still burning with fear. His voice was trembling as he said, “It’s too terrifying. I thought I was doomed to die!”
Mas smiled. “Do you understand now?”
“The enemy will not be particular with you!”
“Warren was prepared. When he knew he was going to die, he wanted to die with you!”
“Remember, when facing enemies, when you have the ability to kill them, don’t be soft-hearted!”
“I hope that you will remember this lesson!”
Faced with Mas’ teaching, Norton nodded. “Master, I understand!”
Seeing that Norton had learned his lesson, Mas did not say anything else.
Looking at the palace that was affected by the alchemy bomb, Mas was a little speechless.
“Am I destined to be unable to plunder the enemy’s money?” Mas said helplessly.
In the Trun Empire, in order to become a God Benefactor, Louis VI sacrificed the Trun Kingdom and caused the palace to collapse.
When exterminating the Spider Church, the crazy woman Yselin had awakened the sleeping Lava Giants, causing the City of Exile to sink into the ground.
Now he was only here to help Norton keep the situation under control. Nevertheless, the lunatic Warren used an alchemy bomb to blow up the palace again.
Mas did not know if his fate was destined to be rich or not, but since he was here, he could not return empty-handed. He got Norton to lead the way and copy the original address of the Bevis family.
However, when Mas and Norton arrived at the Bevis family’s original residence, all Mas saw was an empty house. Even some of the precious flowers and trees in the flower beds had been transplanted.
Mas did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Nevertheless, Mas had gained something.
He managed to return with a God Shooter Crossbow and three Destruction Arrows.
“It’s time for Norton to return!” Mas called out as he and Norton returned to the Alchemy Tower.
Later, Mas and Norton returned to the Alchemy Tower.
Because Norton was severely injured, he went to recuperate. Fortunately, Norton was currently a cyborg, or it would be impossible for him to recover from such an injury.
The first thing Mas did was to analyze the God Shooter Crossbow and the three Destruction Arrows.
When Mas learned the materials for the refinement of the God Shooter Crossbow and the three Destruction Arrows, he pondered for a moment and did not refine them because the God Shooter Crossbow was not very useful to him.
However, Mas was also considering whether to collect large amounts of alchemy materials and refine them into several dozens or even more God Shooter Crossbows.
With a large number of God Shooter Crossbows, he could even defeat the Lava Giant he met in Spider Canyon.
Of course, even though he thought about it, it was not easy to do.
There were five types of alchemy materials needed for the God Shooter Crossbow, among which the four Level 6 alchemy materials were a Level 7 metal-type magic crystal that could be used as launching power.
Collecting these alchemy materials was not an easy task. Besides, there was no point in only having the God Shooter Crossbow as the arrows were necessary.
Although the crossbow could be refined with other materials, if it was really refined, there would definitely be hundreds of them.
After much consideration, Mas felt that this matter had to be put on hold for the time being. The priority now was to gather the alchemy materials needed to advance the Seven Luminaries Battle Armor and the Dimensional Stones needed to refine the Void Demon Spider.
Second, it was to gather the materials needed to refine the Four Divinity Jade. However, Mas could only leave this matter to fate.
However, Mas could not be anxious about gathering the alchemy materials.
What Mas could do now was to increase the defense of the Alchemy Tower.
Mas had originally planned to increase the height of the Alchemy Tower to a thousand meters.
However, after some thought, Mas felt that even if the height of the Alchemy Tower was increased to a thousand meters, there would only be more rune turrets. It would not mean much.
Therefore, Mas changed his mind. He planned to use magic arrays and alchemy techniques to make the Alchemy Tower float.
As such, the threat on the ground could be completely ignored.
There were many high-profile alchemists who had used magic circles to float the Alchemy Tower, but the effects were not good.
It was because the Alchemy Tower was too heavy.
The hundred-meter Alchemy Tower weighed thousands of tons and was extremely heavy.
It was definitely a huge problem to make such a heavy Alchemy Tower float in the air.
Mas had thought of many plans for this. In the end, he decided to use the Peacock Stone to reduce the overall weight of the Alchemy Tower, then let Sha You and Leah carve a large number of floating magic runes.
The floating magic runes were only Level 3. Engraving floating magic runes was not a problem for the two sisters.
If the floating magic runes were not enough to make the Alchemy Tower float, Mas had one last resort, which was to use the Black Gargoyle to pull the Alchemy Tower into the sky.
Of course, this was the last resort. If it was not necessary, Mas did not intend to let the Black Gargoyle pull the Alchemy Tower. After all, this would appear too ugly and completely incongruous.
Mas named the plan to make the Alchemy Tower float as the “Alchemy Tower Floating Plan”!
There were many things required for the Alchemy Tower Floating Plan.
Firstly, there was the peacock stone that could reduce the weight of the Alchemy Tower and agility stones that are better than peacock stones.
Be it the Peacock Stone or the Agility Stone, they required a lot of them.
Besides those, they needed the floating magical runes in order for the Alchemy Tower to float.
Even if the two sisters carved hundreds of floating magic runes, it would not be enough.
According to Mas’ estimation, the Alchemy Tower needed at least ten floating magic runes to carve at a height of one meter. A height of 100 meters only required 1,000 floating magic runes and the number of materials needed was shocking.
Mas learned the materials needed to carve floating magic runes from the two sisters and did a count.
The gold coins needed to buy the peacock stones, the agility stones, and the materials to carve floating magic runes amounted to 20 to 30 million gold coins.
Mas did not have so many gold coins.
However, Mas did not panic at all.
It was time to find this fatty Belek to repay him.
Belek had gained a lot of benefits from the royal family of the Gamma Empire thanks to Mas.. It was normal for Belek to return the favor now.
