My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start - Chapter 170

Chapter 170: City In The Sky

Skyfall, also known as the Starfall, was the astrologer’s best earth-elemental spell.

[Congratulations, Master, for learning the earth-elemental platinum-tier spell, Starfall. It is used to summon meteorites from the sky. Each meteorite has the power of a peak gold tier. The number of meteorites summoned is determined by the amount of magic released.]

The system notification echoed in his ear. Watson could feel the effects of the Skyfall spell in his mind. The astrologer was a candid person. After he agreed to his request, he immediately transmitted the content of the spell to his mind.

“Not bad. There will be no shortage of ore materials for the Blackmoon Castle in the future with this spell.”

Watson rubbed his chin and revealed a satisfied smile. Previously, the stone materials he used to build the castle were either transported from the nearby Misty Forest or purchased from the various manors and Monte Town. The quality was between iron and bronze. Things had changed; he could cast a spell to summon a peak gold-tier meteorite.

It was much more convenient.

Of course, it would require a large amount of magic to cast a spell, but the benefits outweighed the disadvantages. The battle with the Mage Guild had made Watson understand that the castle’s defense was insufficient. If the walls were turned into the platinum tier, they would be safe no matter who attacked them in the future.

Watson turned to the astrologer and smiled cutely. “Master, since you’ve taught me the Starfall spell, why don’t you teach me the spell you used to summon the giant rock golem?”

The astrologer was speechless; it seemed like his disciple was not easily satisfied. “Watson, I just said that it’s not good to learn too many spells at once. It’s easy to bite off more than you can chew.”

“Master, please teach me. I promise that that is the last spell that I will ask to learn from you today.”

He would be able to master it only once he fused the spell. One spell was not enough to complete the fusion.

“Are you sure it’s the last one?”

“I’m sure.”

“You won’t lie to me?”

“Of course. Why would I lie to you, Master?”

‘It would be a lie if I believed you.’

After much hesitation, the astrologer agreed. He reached out and pressed on Watson’s forehead. A wave of profound knowledge flowed into Watson’s mind through his fingers. “Remember, that is the last one.”

[Congratulations, Master, for learning the earth-elemental platinum-tier spell, Giant Rock Golem Summon. It condenses earth elements to create a rock golem that has the strength of a platinum-tier elite. The rock golem has self-awareness and can cooperate with the master to complete some simple commands.]

[Two earth-elemental spells suitable for fusion detected. Do you wish to begin the fusion?]

“Fusion.”

When he heard the system’s voice in his mind, Watson decided without hesitation. The knowledge of the two spells in his mind immediately collided; it became even more profound.

[Congratulations, Master, for a successful fusion. You have obtained an earth-elemental peak platinum-tier spell, the Giant Lava Golem. The Lava Golem is a superior existence of the rock golem. Its body flows with eternal magma. It can be cast from the sky and reach any place within sight.]

“The spells have been merged. Now, I just need to start construction.” Watson rubbed his fists and was about to make his move when he suddenly thought of something. “The astrology I learned can be used for divination. Why don’t I try divination now and see if it’s suitable for me to build something today? If so, where should I build the castle?”

That was not the first time that Blackmoon Castle had been rebuilt. It had been built twice before, and each time, it was destroyed by others. Watson could not help but wonder if the feng shui of his home was not good.

He did as he thought. Green branches of the World Tree appeared on his hands. They snapped with a crisp Ka-cha sound and squirmed into a palm-sized wooden token. On it, the starlight in the sky moved, and a gorgeous pattern appeared. It turned into 24 cards that emitted a golden aura and circled around him in a beautiful trajectory.

“With the name of the stars to spy on fate, I want to divine if today is suitable for rebuilding Blackmoon Castle.”

Watson looked at the sky and matched the flight path of the tarot cards to the stars in the sky. Then, he pulled the two cards closest to him. The first was a star card, and the second was a card named Nothingness.

He did mention that there were 24 tarot cards in that world; it was very similar to the tarot cards in his previous life.

In his previous life, the tarot cards included the first card, the fool card, to the 22nd card, the world card. Since there were 24 cards in that world, the extra two cards were the 23rd card, the nothingness card, and the 24th card, the god card.

The nothingness card represented the return of everything to peace. After one obtained everything, one would eventually lose everything, while the god card represented the form that all living creatures would eventually become. Those two cards were unique, so the stars they corresponded to were also unique to that world. The galaxy that corresponded to the former was called the Death Omen star, while the latter corresponded to the Absolute Beginning star.

People said that those two stars were the oldest in the world. Of course, it was not the time to think about those things. A stream of information followed the starlight and entered Watson’s mind.

[Today is suitable for trading and building, not for killing or visiting.]

“Suitable for building, then it means that we can build a house! Let me divine where we should build the castle?”

Watson was satisfied. He drew two more cards—he got the sun card and the tower card. An additional piece of information entered his mind.

“It’s not north, south, east, west, but above. Don’t tell me I have to build a house in the sky?”

Watson looked up at the sky in confusion. That was a bit difficult, so he was ready to ask for his master’s opinion. “Master, I just did divination. Hey, Master, where are you going?” He found that the astrologer was tiptoeing backward. He was already a few hundred meters away from him.

“Didn’t I say that I’m going to visit the border count? You do your thing; I’ll be right back.” The astrologer showed an awkward expression on his face.

He had wanted to take advantage of Watson’s divination to sneak away, but he did not expect to be discovered.

“Master, I just did a divination and found that today is suitable for building houses, but not for visits. Why don’t you stay here, rebuild Blackmoon Castle with me, and then visit the border count in two days?”

Watson was worried. He was really concerned about the astrologer, but in the astrologer’s ears, his words were like the whisper of a demon, a precursor for him to ask for more spells.

“Watson has just learned astrology. How can it be accurate? I think he doesn’t want me to leave, mainly to get benefits from me. Not suitable for visits? It must be a lie; I will not be fooled.”

The astrologer stroked his beard. As he thought about it, the ground beneath his feet was suddenly gone. It seemed like a long crack had appeared after the intense battle, and he had fallen into the hole. He cried out in surprise.

“Ouch!”

Watson looked from afar and realized that his master had fallen into the ground. He frowned; it seemed like astrology was quite reliable. It looked like he had to build a castle in the sky.

He turned his head and looked at the devastated land. After the Blackmoon Knights’ cleanup, he could see the remains of more than ten manors around Blackmoon Castle. The meteorites had been removed; only a pile of debris was left.

[A destroyed iron-tier manor]

[Effect: it is already a garbage dump. Basically, it can not be inhabited. It needs to be rebuilt.]

Information about the manors appeared in his eyes. Watson raised his right hand toward them and activated the system fusion.

Boom!

With a muffled sound, the ruined manors disintegrated instantly. They turned into streams of light and collided with each other before they fused into the Blackmoon Castle behind him; even the earth was squeezed together.

Almost in an instant, the garbage dumps that originally covered dozens of kilometers had disappeared. The charred black stones collided and turned into hard stones. The broken wood connected and became complete beams; the stones and beams formed complete houses. Time seemed to have gone backward. More than ten manors that looked no different from the past appeared in everyone’s sight.

The sound of notifications continued to ring in Watson’s ears, such as [Congratulations, Master, for fusing the exquisite houses] and [Congratulations, Master, for fusing iron-tier houses into bronze-tier manors].

Thousands of people watched that scene in shock as they stood around Blackmoon Castle. The Blackmoon Knights, who had joined a long time ago, were fine. They had seen Watson fused Blackmoon Castle before, but those who had joined later were dumbfounded.

Dozens of gold-tier Blackmoon Knights worked hard for two days, but they could only move the meteorites. Watson only waved his hand, and the entire Blackmoon Town was restored. It was too terrifying.

However, that was not what was truly terrifying.

After Watson restored more than ten manors, he waved his hand again. At that time, he had combined the dozens of manors and hundreds of meteorites that the Blackmoon Knights had brought back with the Blackmoon Castle.

The crumbling Blackmoon Castle had turned into light and disappeared on the spot. In its place was a floating building that left a massive shadow on the ground. The colossal base was like an ancient temple, and it had blocked the sunlight.
