My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start - Chapter 251

Chapter 251: Go Back And Think About It

[Starlight-tier Special Building: Mount Creation]

[Effects: World Creation (Mount Creation is separated from the rest of the world and has its own rules).]

[First rule—the transformation of reality and illusion (the things created in Mount Creation will exist in the real world). Second rule—time acceleration (Mount Creation has its own time flow; ten days there are equivalent to a day in the outside world). Third rule—terrain cutting (the terrain on Mount Creation can be changed at any time, and gravity will adjust accordingly). Fourth rule—Star Codex (demolish the first three rules and make any new ones that you want). A large amount of energy is consumed each time new rules are constructed, and only four rules can be active simultaneously.]

[Additional abilities: God’s Judgment (consumes Mount Creation’s resources and communicates with the stars to summon the ancient gods’ power to descend). The gods’ ability to descend is proportional to the amount of power consumed.]

Watson turned around to have a look at his surroundings after he explained it to Lophis. Specific information about Mount Creation had appeared in his eyes.

The literal translation of starlight was the stars that shine in history. Many gods had passed through that realm in the past. It was not an exaggeration to refer to a starlight-tier building as the kingdom of gods in that world.

Mount Creation had absorbed a large piece of land, so the former border had become a vast ocean. Then, Watson had fused the Endless Sea with the Land of the Dead. Unfortunately, the Sea of Death had only inherited the Land of the Dead’s abilities and developed a few new ones; it had evolved from diamond-tier to peak diamond-tier.

The Sea of Death is the highest-level diamond-tier building.

[Effects: Dimensional Space, Summon of the King of Death, Undead Ship, Death Knell, Fog of War (when you enter the sea shrouded in the fog of death, you will lose your way, and your equipment will fail no matter how advanced it is), Water of the Styx (the water contains the aura of the dead and has a mysterious power; a river that can’t carry anything other than the dead, and any living thing that enters the water will sink).]

[Additional abilities: Treasury of the Undead, Death Curse (anyone who enters the river of death without permission will be cursed with a black skull symbol on their body. They will be in excruciating pain and will die within a week).]

The Fog of War, Water of the Styx, and Death Curse—those abilities were added after the Sea of Death’s evolution. The Sea of Death was more dangerous than ever, and there was no way for one to protect against it. It was ideal as a fortifying barrier for Mount Creation.

Nobody would be able to cross Mount Creation and the Sea of Death in one go. However, Watson was unsatisfied. He used the goldbiter rats to empty the platinum-tier ore mountain he had previously fused in Misty Forest. He also moved the medicinal herbs he had fused in the forest to Mount Creation.

Watson had initially believed that Misty Forest’s assets were sufficient for the border’s usage, albeit unethically, for decades. However, after he fused them into Mount Creation, he realized that they were insufficient. They could only fill a small part of Mount Creation.

Things became much easier after that.

He assigned missions to the mayors. Lubin would forge weapons, Gerant would cultivate medicinal herbs, and Fairy Town would manage and produce magical beasts. Watson did not know how many weapons, medicinal herbs, and magical beasts he would need on Mount Creation, but he estimated it would be greater than a kingdom’s wealth.

Of course, none of that would be possible without the Wish for the World ring. Everyone on the border had the same ring, with the same Wish for the World engravement.

Blackmoon Town had made more than 100,000 rings, and they were all exchanged with Antonio’s lifespan. The astrologer was recuperating since his lifespan kept getting depleted. That was why Watson decided to use the items from Misty Forest as consumable materials.

More than 100,000 people would make a wish for a Nibelung ring at the same time, which Antonio would turn into Wish for the World rings for the entire world.

Every day, each person could make three wishes. Each wish would collect the materials required to make a Wish for the World ring for the entire world. In other words, more than 100,000 people would produce hundreds of thousands of Wish for the World rings for the whole world in a single day. When those rings were distributed the next day, then hundreds of thousands of people would make the same wish again at the same time. The number of rings would double until it got to more than a million rings.

Watson had made more than a million rings for the world in only two days and distributed them to everyone at the border. It was two days on Mount Creation, but it was only a few hours in the outside world.

Many manor owners from other parts of the border were among those to whom he distributed the rings. They had been unaware of Blackmoon Town’s existence. They lived very well in their original location, but they were dissatisfied with the sudden change in environment and their new status as a subsidiary of Blackmoon Town. However, they changed their minds when they received the rings.

Why should they hesitate? They refused to submit to others, but Blackmoon Town had given them too much.

After they had submitted to Watson, those manor owners would receive missions from Watson daily, such as planting silver or gold-tier wheat. They did not have to surrender the items they made or grew, not the fruits or the weapons; those would always belong to them. Watson was not concerned about those items. However, they would need to give those things away for free if Mount Creation were destroyed.

The new brand-new production model that did not require any tax payment gave the manor owners a taste of that sweetness. They had initially joined Blackmoon Town for the border count’s sake and fear of Watson’s strength. However, they had also fallen in love with the town. They would not leave even if they were chased out of there.

They were already accustomed to life on Mount Creation after nearly two months there. It had only been four or five days since they had returned to the outside world. They felt a sense of superiority when they thought about it. The resources on Mount Creation were already more significant than those from the outside world, and outsiders would not be able to imagine their conception of time.

As a result, some people began to worship Watson, the Blackmoon Town’s youngest Young Master, as the reincarnation of a god. Who else in the world could control time if not a god’s reincarnation? So, when Lophis went up the mountain and referred to a farmer there as a god, the man was not enraged. Instead, he burst out in laughter.

“What do I have to buy, Young Master Watson, so that you’d do business with me?”

Lophis had no idea how magical Mount Creation was, but he had an uneasy feeling that his words were inadequate. The rare treasures were probably only a pile of trash, and the things that Watson wanted to sell him would be too difficult for him to bear. However, he was not willing to give up that opportunity. He wanted to play it safe, so he asked that question.

“It is quite simple. You simply need to purchase some weapons. For example, the platinum-tier longsword that I made two days ago, or the gold-tier towel I used to wipe my sweat, or some of the medicinal herbs and magical beasts produced by Mount Creation,” Watson said nonchalantly as he waved his longsword.

Torch Town had made the weapon he held in his hand; the town was primarily in the forging trades because Blackmoon Town had amassed many gold and silver-tier weapons. Furthermore, everyone had a Wish for the World ring; Torch Town only needed to make a wish to strengthen the weapon.

Watson had just completed Torch Town’s transformation, and the town had gained a new ability because of that. All the items they produced, weapons or medicinal herbs, would instantly turn into silver-tier. They even retained that ability after Mount Creation absorbed the town.

Torch Town could produce an average of 100 silver-tier weapons and fuse them into relatively low-quality platinum-tier longswords—the same as the one in Watson’s hand. Even if it was not of the highest quality, it was still a platinum-tier weapon.

Blackmoon Town’s guards and the guards from the other three towns were equipped with platinum-tier weapons and armor, and they trained with gold-tier weapons. However, it seemed like they would be able to upgrade their training weapons to platinum-tier in only a few days.

“Young Master Watson, I am curious how much the platinum-tier longsword, as well as the medicinal herbs and magical beasts you mentioned, are worth?”

The longsword in Watson’s hand drew Lophis’ gaze; he swallowed his saliva. There were only a few platinum-tier weapons in the entire kingdom, so he wondered how much Watson wanted for them.

Watson gestured with his finger.

“Ten thousand gold coins?”

Lophis inquired hesitantly. When Watson shook his head, he asked again, “A hundred thousand gold coins?” Watson continued to shake his head; he looked desperate. “Is it a million gold coins per item, then?”

If it were a million gold coins per item, he could not afford it even if he sold Vermillion Town. It was a rare platinum-tier item, so he did not think the asking price was too high. He was a little disappointed that he would never get a chance to own a platinum-tier weapon.

“I don’t want 100,000 gold coins or one million. It is only 1,000 gold coins per item,” Watson said, which surprised Lophis.

A thousand gold coins? Was he serious?

That was pretty inexpensive for a valuable platinum-tier weapon. A typical peak gold-tier weapon would cost around that much. Lophis wanted to buy a dozen of them and resell them for a fortune.

Unfortunately, Watson’s next words shattered his fantasy. “There is another condition if you want to buy a platinum-tier item for only 1,000 gold coins. You must sign a contract with Blackmoon Town and become part of Mount Creation. The items you buy from here are only for your personal use. You can’t sell or give them to anyone outside of Mount Creation. If you were to violate these conditions, then be prepared to face the penalties for that. These conditions are a bit harsh; there is no hurry to give me a response. You can go back and think about it.”

“Since you have said so, Young Master Watson, I shall think about it.”

Lophis looked hesitant. Adele was not there, and it was difficult for him to make a decision. Furthermore, there was a rule that prohibited him from reselling the weapons, which was a bit too much. However, the benefits offered by Blackmoon Town were too good to pass up, so he found it difficult to refuse.

Watson waved his hand and smiled. “Please escort our visitor off the mountain.”

Gerant and Lubin stood on both sides of Lophis before they escorted them away. As they walked, they told Lophis about how Blackmoon Town was fantastic and that it was the right thing to do. Meanwhile, Watson continued to train with his platinum-tier longsword.

He was unconcerned about Lophis’ rejection because anyone confronted with Blackmoon Town had only one option. Instead, he was planning what he would eat for the banquet that night.
