Chapter 1371: More Partners

At this moment, Lin Yun had taken everybody to the center of the underground world.

Finding a safe place, Lin Yun immediately set up a super teleportation array that could cross planes. He didn’t care whether it would expose himself anymore.

If the Blood Elves’ king got them, they’d better pray that they could die a quick death. It was not hard to imagine how infuriated the Blood Elves’ king had to be and what would happen if all the Blood Elves went crazy…

He quickly set up a teleportation array that crossed planes, and everybody disappeared from the teleportation array. The moment they vanished, the teleportation array exploded into pieces. A silver space law rune appeared, and swept out as a daunting blast, eliminating all the remaining traces in this place.

A few minutes later, a Blood Elf, who looked quite miserable with one severed arm, appeared in midair. He looked at the remaining traces and roared.

“Pure-blood dragons, I’m going to kill you!”

A blood ripple spread out of the Blood Elf. Instantly, all life in the radius of a dozen kilometers exploded, and the plants all withered. The place was filled with the stench of blood and desolation.

Confirming that it was impossible to track the thieves down, the Blood Elf disappeared with bloodshot eyes and a twisted expression…

Lin Yun and the others reappeared in the center of the Odin Kingdom in Noscent, not far away from where he entered. Underneath his feet was an enormous teleportation array that covered 1,000 square meters. Only such an enormous teleportation array could support the travel.

The underground world was essentially part of Noscent. It shared the same origin as the surface world, but they were independent from each other. The Planar Path was not an option. Only super big teleportation arrays could support the travel.

The moment he came out, Lin Yun spouted a space rune, which shook the space, and destroyed the super massive teleportation array, making it impossible for anyone to track it down.

After it was done, everybody was greatly relieved. Lin Yun glanced at Marianna, who didn’t know what trouble she had caused at all. All that she could think of was food, just like Xiuban…

He had almost been killed because of a kid. The Void Blood Pool had actually been created by the 73rd God. From the look of it, the Blood Elves had likely been created by the 73rd God too…

After landing in the underground world, she’d probably found a group of natural elves or other elves, and contaminated them with her power so that they were all corrupted as Blood Elves.

The Blood Elves were then deployed to guard the entrance of the relics. If everything went well, nobody would interrupt the 73rd God’s resurrection at all…

Lin Yun had a guess about what had probably happened, and it was likely the truth. The Blood Elves were part of the 73rd God’s plan too. However, this world was full of unexpected factors. The Blood Elves didn’t build their capital near the relics; there was only a mid-sized city of Blood Elves near the relics.

At the beginning, the 73rd God probably had thrown the Void Blood Pool to a random elf tribe that had escaped to the underground world so that all of them were corrupted into the Blood Elves. There was also a chance, though very slim, that the Blood Elves were an indigenous species that found the Void Blood Pool near the relics.

Then, the Blood Elves rose. The enormous power that the Void Blood Pool could provide protected and strengthened the Blood Elves. Whenever the Blood Elves needed the power of blood, the Void Blood Pool would provide it.

This Extraordinary Magic Tool couldn’t be used in head-on battles, either. It was just an enormous stock of magic power that couldn’t be understood. However, it was enough to defend the entrance of the relics.

The Blood Elves established a great defense network, including the capital that would never fall. That was likely the 73rd God’s first and most obvious line of defense in the underground world.

Though it was impossible to tell what had happened in history, it was obvious that something unexpected had happened. The Blood Elves hadn’t established their most heavily guarded city at the entrance of the relics, so the first line of defense didn’t work. After Lin Yun pulled a trick, the entrance of the relics became defenseless.

The fact that Marianna summoned the Void Blood Pool also suggested that the Blood Elves’ king hadn’t fully controlled the Void Blood Pool, and could only make use of it and track it down.

However, they were already in another space. However capable the Blood Elves’ king was, it was impossible for him to detect the location of an Extraordinary Magic Tool that didn’t belong to him. It would be fine even if Marianna played with the Void Blood Pool as a toy.

Remembering the wrath of the Blood Elves’ king, Lin Yun knew that the pure-blood dragons had clearly held him back for a long time. The Blood Elves’ king probably wouldn’t stop until he killed all the pure-blood dragons.

Lin Yun probably shouldn’t return to the underground world anytime soon. There was no telling if the Blood Elves’ king had captured their aura or blood with a weird technique. If the Blood Elves’ king had remembered the smell of Lin Yun’s blood, he would be detected the moment he appeared in the underground world.

He was completely safe after he returned to Noscent. Danason and Levis soon bid farewell to Lin Yun. Although Marianna caused them great losses, and neither of them dared to enter the underground world again soon, they had already gained a lot of loot. It would’ve taken them years to collect the rare resources that had been packed up in their rings in Noscent.

Some of the rare materials could only be collected by a few kilograms in the entire Noscent. But on the trip, everybody had gathered almost 40 kilograms.

Lin Yun had found more rare materials than Danason and Levis combined. There were also Marianna and an Extraordinary Magic Tool. He couldn’t have asked for more treasures…

“Sir Merlin, you’re welcome to visit the Chester Family. Of course, Marianna will be welcome too. The Chester Family has the most number of beasts in the entire world of Noscent…”

Before Danason left, he didn’t forget to leave a good impression on Marianna. He even offered the beasts that his family had spent so much time training to Marianna as barbecue.

After Danason left, Levis became even more straightforward.

“Sir Merlin, I look forward to cooperating with you again. The Storm Tower has access to many materials in the Boundless Sea that I’m sure you will be interested in…”

Levis left. Lin Yun narrowed his eyes, and looked at Levis’ back. He thought even more highly of Levis, who was clearly a smart guy that had recognized the importance of making friends with Lin Yun. It would be great if the two organizations cooperated with each other and benefited from each other.

As long as he made friends with Lin Yun and cooperated with the Gilded Rose, he would naturally have access to Marianna.

However, Lin Yun somehow felt that Levis considered him more important than Marianna.

It was obvious that Levis was much smarter and more decisive and observant than Danason. There was no need to doubt that.

It was impossible to enter the underground world anytime soon. Lin Yun knew that what he did might have caught other people’s attention, but it didn’t matter. The path to the underground world had been revealed. In this age, there were a couple of ways to enter it, but whoever entered the underground world at this moment would surely encounter a lot of trouble…

As a matter of fact, there was indeed mayhem in the underground world. The Blood Elves lost the Void Blood Pool, which prompted their infuriated king to initiate a total war against the pure-blood dragons and the half beastmen.

Every tribe that was adjacent to the Blood Elves’ territory, and could’ve possibly stolen the pool was a target of the maddened Blood Elves.

Having lost the Void Blood Pool, the city defenses that the Blood Elves had always been proud of were no longer powered. The battles were no longer impasses like before. This total war was extremely fierce. The loss of the Void Blood Pool had made them crazy.

The hatred and grievances that had been accumulated for countless years were completely ignited. As Lin Yun expected, this whole thing wouldn’t be over until some level-49 experts were killed.

But Noscent was not involved in any of that for now.

Lin Yun quietly left the center of the Odin Kingdom. Then, he received the Thorny Crown’s report that many people of the Odin Kingdom were gathering in the center. Clearly, they had spotted something, but Lin Yun didn’t really care.

He returned to Neverwinter City. Everything was normal, and nothing happened while he was away. Although the Gilded Rose’s development slowed down, it was stabler than before, and more organizations signed long-term contracts with it.

As time went by, the Blue Demon Potion’s and the Luminosity Potion’s effects were proven. For starters, with a much faster mana restoration, one could fight much longer, and thereby win battles that they couldn’t in the past.

Because they could fight longer, they could gain more battle experience. Also, with enough mana as their support, their way of fighting changed too. Every mage who had the Blue Demon Potion was stronger than before.

In an organization, it meant the increase of the average strength of the entire organization. Nobody could possibly refuse it.

Also, the Luminosity Potion reduced the time cost for mana accumulation, which meant that every organization which had the Luminosity Potion would become significantly stronger in the days to come.

Nobody wanted to be left behind at this critical moment. It was the most important reason why nobody attacked the Gilded Rose for the two treasures.

Not one or two organizations’ interests, but everybody’s were at stake. Whoever hurt everybody’s interests would be everybody’s enemy.

Three days after Lin Yun returned to the Gilded Rose, the Storm Tower’s delegation, including 10 Heaven Rank representatives headed by Levis, arrived.

The negotiation with the Gilded Rose was nothing special. The contract they signed was quite fair. Neither party thought that they suffered a loss. They cooperated in every aspect, ranging from the Hope Potion to the Luminosity Potion. The Storm Tower purchased everything that the Gilded Rose had and it needed.

Such extensive cooperation was quite rare. Even allies rarely signed contracts that involved such great interests. Two parties would never cooperate so comprehensively unless they trusted each other.

After all, for every mage organization, resources and interests were what mattered.

Even Lin Yun was surprised at the Storm Tower’s resolve. The Gilded Rose wouldn’t suffer any loss from the deal. It would only be offering alchemical products, whereas the Storm Tower was paying resources from the Boundless Sea.

The resources of the Boundless Sea had seldom appeared inland, mainly because the resources were monopolized by the mage organizations by the sea. Only the resources that they couldn’t use up, or those which they had a huge quantity of, would be sold inland. For most mages, there were never enough resources.

The Storm Tower had offered the resources of the Boundless Sea as a gesture of sincerity. Lin Yun would be downright stupid if he thought they were doing it just for Marianna.

After the people of the Storm Tower left, the Chester Family visited. They offered 10 powerful level-40 beasts that were only one step away from being extraordinary. They then offered beasts that were Marianna’s favorite food…

After that, they began to talk to the Gilded Rose about negotiation, but they purchased far fewer items than the Storm Tower did. It was just normal cooperation.

After the negotiations were over, Lin Yun devoted himself to other matters.

The construction of the Shelter Tower had begun. The Cave Gnomes, the Red-Skinned Spirit Suckers, and the Firerock Dwarves were all summoned to build parts of the foundation of the Shelter Tower in the Natural Demiplane.

Those parts would be created in the Demiplane before they were moved to Noscent. The Shelter Tower wouldn’t be really constructed until Lin Yun picked the best spot.

The research in the alchemy puppet base went on quite well. Very soon, the level of the manufactured alchemy puppets would be increased again. Also, the manufacturing of Heaven Rank alchemy puppets was about to succeed. It was just that the faulty rate was still high.

Upgrade Pabiete, develop the Natural Demiplane, grasp truth runes, understand laws, and increase the power of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras…

There were too many things to work on, and Lin Yun had to do them in person. The studies of the magic battleships and the operation of the Gilded Rose could be entrusted to someone else. Lin Yun almost wished that he could clone himself.

He felt more and more urgency. Agalon had never returned from the space battlefield. The Starry Sky College would be destroyed, and Agalon would perish in 10 years. There wasn’t a lot of time left. He needed to gather enough strength for resistance and to find the truth.

The Gilded Rose was already bound with the Starry Sky College. The three deans of the Starry Sky College were already aware of Agalon’s plan, and had been helping the Gilded Rose one way or another. Every informed person could find a lot of traces. Also, what happened to the Lodney Family couldn’t be kept a secret forever.

Back then, Agalon personally suppressed the ancestor of the Lodney Family. It was done quite secretly. However, while it could be kept from other people, it couldn’t be kept a secret from experts who were as strong as Agalon.

At the very least, the Gilded Rose, Lin Yun, and the Starry Sky College were already the same thing in the eyes of many top organizations. None of them came to the Gilded Rose for trouble, probably because their leaders all knew Agalon, and considered Lin Yun as his heir and the future president of the Starry Sky College.

If things happened exactly the same as Agalon saw in his vision, the Starry Sky College would be destroyed, and Agalon would be permanently gone in the boundless space. After that, the Gilded Rose’s life wouldn’t be great, especially when it had quite a few attractive products. It wouldn’t be able to develop in peace again, unless Lin Yun showed that he was just as strong as Agalon.

Lin Yun was not confident of improving himself to level 9 of the Heaven Rank in only 10 years, even though he had a Natural Demiplane.

Normal Heaven Rank experts needed hundreds of years to level up in the Heaven Rank. The first three levels of the Heaven Rank were easier, but every advancement after that would consume a longer time. After level 5 of the Heaven Rank, each advancement could easily take a millennium.

That was not counting the Heaven Rank mages who couldn’t make any progress.

To reach level 9 of the Heaven Rank in 10 years, the chances were quite slim for Lin Yun even though he had a Natural Demiplane.

Therefore, he was feeling more and more urgent…

To level up faster, he had to develop the Natural Demiplane faster. Only if the Natural Demiplane developed faster, and had more evolved laws would he be able to grasp them inside the Natural Demiplane.

As for the laws that hadn’t evolved in the Natural Demiplane, he would have to take his time, and grasp them in the outside world…
