Chapter 114: Mission Hall

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After nearly half a year of cultivating intermediate level Mind Meditation Spell, Merlin’s Mind Power was no longer what it was before. It could now able to support the construction of a First-level Spell Model.

However, when he was simulating Dark Mist’s Spell Model in his Awareness, he was overwhelmed with a rather cumbersome feeling. This meant that almost half of his Mind Power was exhausted by Dark Mist’s Spell Model.

Even the total amount of Mind Power spent while constructing all four spells – Gale, Earth Guard, Frost, and Fireball – was less than what was required for constructing Dark Mist.

“Fortunately, my Mind Power has increased multiple folds recently and it was sufficient to support a First-level Spell Model. Otherwise, the construction would fail due to lack of Mind Power.”

Merlin murmured to himself with a solemn expression on his face. This was an unforeseen circumstance that happened completely out of his expectation. It never came across his mind that Dark Mist’s Spell Model would exhaust so much Mind Power.

Therefore, Merlin could not afford to be careless. He utilized almost all his Mind Power to simulate Dark Mist’s Spell Model.

The simulation process consumed a long duration of five to six hours. The night had already fallen when Merlin finally felt a tinge of vibration in his Awareness.

“Whoosh!”

Like the call of a fierce wind, numerous black dots clouded together and flew toward Merlin in his Awareness.

These black dots were Darkness Elements. They gradually entered the Awareness and were transformed into Magic Power by Dark Mist’s Spell Model. Soon enough, Merlin felt a strange feeling rising inside of him.

It was as if he had suddenly been accustomed to the darkness, and he enjoyed this new sensation greatly.

Naturally, the effect of Darkness-type spells was most compelling at night. Although Dark Mist could be cast during day or night, it was most effective at night as it was when the surrounding was condensed with Darkness Elements. This was the trait of Darkness Elements, also the unique characteristic of Darkness-type spells.

Merlin adjusted his Mind Power slightly. Even though Dark Mist’s Spell Model required an abundance of Mind Power, so much more than what Merlin expected, he could still mobilize a portion of his Mind Power right now, at least for casting spells.

“Gale!”

Merlin utilized his Mind Power to simulate Gale’s Spell Model. Instantly, numerous Wind Elements fluctuated in his body. He suddenly felt the air around him became lighter.

“Whoosh!”

Like a flash of lightning, Merlin’s silhouette appeared at the other end of the room. It was so fast that only a faint shadow flashed in front of his naked eye.

“Dark Mist!”

Merlin was controlling Dark Mist’s Spell Model, the spell that he held the most expectation.

“Whoosh!”

Thick dark mist appeared out of thin air soundlessly and shrouded the entire room at the blink of an eye, covering a relatively large area.

Merlin was satisfied at the result of his small tests. Up to this moment, he had acquired a total of five Elements, namely Fireball, Frost, Earth Guard, Gale, and Dark Mist. He was now a true Five-Elemental Wizard.

Moreover, Merlin had one more Thunderbolt Net which was yet to be exchanged. He would do it once he had accumulated enough contribution points. When he succeeded, Merlin would become a Six-Elemental Wizard!

Six-Elemental Wizards were extremely rare, even in the powerful spell casters’ organizations. Merlin doubted if there was any Six-Elemental Spell Caster in the Dark Magic Region.

Merlin needed time to stabilize these two newly-constructed Spell Models, at least allowing them to accumulate three spells worth of Magic Power. By doing so, he could activate the strengthened version of the spells, which would enhance his ability greatly.

...

Half a month later, Merlin finally stopped his cultivation process and exited the Wizard Tower.

During the half month period, the Spell Models of Gale and Dark Mist had accumulated at least ten spells worth of Magic Power. In other words, they were ready to form an initial combat power.

“It’s a shame that I don’t have Wind and Darkness elemental crystal stones. Otherwise, the accumulation speed of Magic Power for Gale and Dark Mist could be greatly accelerated.”

Merlin, who had spent more than half a year in the Dark Magic Region was no longer the newbie Wizard like Didimoss used to call him. Back when Didimoss asked him for elemental crystal stones, Merlin was at a complete loss about the request.

Hence, Merlin had specially searched for information in the Resource Tower and was now rewarded with knowledge about these precious elemental crystal stones.

There were several kinds of elemental crystal stones. Just as the names suggested, they were a kind of natural ore formed after the Elements were condensed to the extreme. These stones could be of great help to Spell Casters in accumulating and recovering Magic Power.

If Merlin had obtained Wind and Darkness elemental crystal stones, then he could allow the Spell Models of Gale and Dark Mist to absorb enough Magic Power in the shortest time.

However, elemental crystal stones were extremely precious. An elemental crystal stone about the size of a thumb cost at least one contribution point. Merlin currently only had a mere total of three contribution points, which was not enough for him to exchange numerous stones.

Besides, Merlin was already considering constructing a First-level Spell Model once his Mind Power had increased to a certain level.

Despite this, the First-level spells in the Resource Tower were extraordinarily costly, with the cheapest one priced at a minimum of twenty contribution points. Merlin’s meager three contribution points were like a drop in the bucket.

“I don’t have enough contribution points! Seems like it’s time to accomplish some missions!”

The main reason that led Merlin to step out of the Wizard Tower was insufficient contribution points. During the past half year, Merlin had buried himself in cultivation and never realized the importance of contribution points. Now that he needed elemental crystal stones and various kinds of spells, he truly understood the importance of contribution points in the Dark Magic Region.

If he wished to become a First-level Spell Caster in three years, Merlin would have to earn sufficient contribution points to support his desire for various kinds of Spell Models.

Soon, Merlin arrived at the Mission Hall. For the first time since his arrival in the Dark Magic Region, he finally stepped foot into the venue.

There were numerous Spell Casters in the great hall. Beginner-level Spell Casters as well as First, Second, or even powerful Third-level Spell Casters also shuffled in and out of the Mission Hall continuously.

This occurrence indirectly showed that even official members of the Dark Magic Region also yearned for more contribution points.

Merlin glanced around the hall. On each white wall, there was a huge, smooth mirror filled with countless mysterious runes. Occasionally, the runes would flash and reveal the tasks on the mirrors.

Some of these tasks were released by the Dark Magic Region while others were released by Spell Casters from the Dark Magic Region. After all, there would be a time when Spell Casters in the Dark Magic Region were desperate for precious ingredients or assistance to accomplish some small tasks. They could release their demands in the Mission Hall as long as they could afford to pay enough contribution points.

Merlin gathered his focus to inspect the densely-packed tasks in the Mission Hall. Suddenly, from the corner of his eyes, he noticed a familiar figure in the crowd.

Merlin hesitated briefly before finally walked over to the familiar figure.
