After Enderfa was congealed, his face on the left side exclaimed in amazement.
"Hahaha. I did it. I truly did it. I feel that I'm already a lot stronger. It shouldn't be a problem for me to kill that idiot Shawn..."
The face on the right side looked rather bitter.
"This is too ugly. I look too fancy. My body is even colorful. There's even a horn on my head, although it's slightly better looking than a unicorn's..."
Enderfa's three faces had completely changed. They were made of light, and there was a horn that looked like a colorful crystal on his forehead.
The faces on two sides were remarking and whining, and the one in the middle wore a weird expression.
"Damn it, Merlin, I think my wisdom has increased. Those two jerks seem to be growing independent..."
Instantly, the faces on the two sides became unhappy.
"What do you mean, independent? You were only suppressed by Lord Shawn because you were too dumb. Didn't you see that even Syudos became the Magic Tool Incarnation of an Extraordinary Magic Tool? Even Lord Shawn is extraordinary too at this moment. You're not satisfied?"
"Exactly. Although I look uglier than before, it's always better to be stronger..."
Lin Yun was dumbfounded to hear the three faces arguing with each other. Previously, Enderfa had three faces but one consciousness. The guy had three faces, not three heads.
However, it seemed that at this moment, all the three faces had independent yet connected consciousnesses. There was no telling if it was a good thing. If they argued again in the middle of a battle, then it would be a disaster...
Lin Yun didn't say anything. He also knew that Enderfa was the same. Technically speaking, Enderfa had gained more wisdom, and could unleash more power of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel.
Enderfa had already leaked his aura one time, so it wouldn't matter what might happen. The new-born Extraordinary Magic Tool had swallowed Noscent's mana and kept its mark. Nothing could possibly happen.
Lin Yun canceled the Heaven Rank alchemy array, which was on the verge of collapse. Instantly, the castle fell apart into pieces. The pieces and dust then vanished at the same time, leaving the ground empty. The entire castle had already disappeared.
The castle had already been destroyed in the previous blasts. What previously remained was only a shell that was safeguarded by the Heaven Rank alchemy array.
Walking out of the empty ground, Lin Yun found everybody waiting for him. The glamorous Ten Thousand Spell Wheel floated next to Lin Yun, and Enderfa floated on top of it.
Seeing Enderfa, Lord Shawn, who had been feeling jealousy, instantly burst into laughter.
"Hahaha. Enderfa, I didn't expect that this would happen to you. You look like a lustful chameleon. Oh, wait. You're much more beautiful than a chameleon. Look at your horn. You may be carrying the bloodline of the Crystal Unicorn..."
Hearing that, all of Enderfa's three faces became grim.
"Shawn, you idiot. You're just jealous of me. Come on, let me show you Master Enderfa's new power!"
"Shawn, drop your jealousy. I'm still more handsome than you!"
"Damn it, Shawn, are you up for some beating again?"
Enderfa's three faces cursed at the same time, and it immediately dumbfounded Lord Shawn. Also, Lord Shawn realized that the three faces were different from before, and it seemed like each face had a completely different character.
After being cursed by the three faces for two minutes without stopping, Lord Shawn finally roared and flew to the sky, swiping at Enderfa's left face with a bit of strange soul power on his claws.
Amidst a flash of light, Lord Shawn's claws hit the halo around Enderfa. Dazzling light burst out, as if two horrifying streams of power were colliding. The waves of extraordinary power spread out. 𝑓𝘳𝚎𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝗻oѵ𝘦𝘭 - 🅽🅽novel
The next second, Lord Shawn was flung back. He didn't attack again after he landed. He looked shocked and suspicious.
"Damn, no wonder you were confident of yelling at me. You're capable of defending against soul attacks now!"
Not just Lord Shawn, Lin Yun was slightly surprised too. Lord Shawn's attack seemed unremarkable, but it carried the power that could hurt the soul. At this moment, Lord Shawn could easily rip a level-1 Heaven Rank mage's soul, even if the mage was on guard.
However, the power didn't work on Enderfa at all. As a Magic Tool Incarnation, Enderfa was technically a soul creature. There shouldn't be a soul creature that was incapable of using soul power, and yet could resist soul attacks...
That was probably the benefit of the conception. It was very hard to predict what a natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tool Incarnation was capable of.
With this new capability, Enderfa would be better at defending himself, which was a good thing. After all, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was the most important magic tool.
Lin Yun shook his head.
"Alright, stop fooling around. The waves we just leaked must've caught a lot of attention. They could not possibly infer from the waves that an Extraordinary Magic Tool was born, but if they find something, it will be troublesome. Let's just get out of here."
After Lin Yun said that, nobody else said anything. Lord Shawn grimaced and glared at Enderfa, and Enderfa wore a cocky smile on all of his three faces...
Summoning the alchemy puppets, and leaving behind the puppets that had originally protected this large farm, Lin Yun gave the manager a few instructions, and left with his men.
In only half an hour, a powerful aura arrived at the manor. A lot of people were cleaning up the mess, but even the strongest of them was just a High Mage. After all, this was just a plantation, and nothing very precious was grown here. Even the High Mage wouldn't have been deployed here if the plantation hadn't been so huge.
When the Heaven Rank expert arrived, those who were too weak passed out under his pressure. Seeing that, the Heaven Rank expert who had just arrived quickly concealed his aura. He was here to ask questions. Whom could he ask if they all passed out?
"Do you know what happened here?"
When the expert, who was at least in level 6 of the Heaven Rank, floated in the air, the High Mage shivered with a pale face, and confessed the truth without thinking.
"My lord, I didn't know what happened. Just now, a large number of black clouds gathered in the sky with a horrifying aura. Then, lightning bolts struck down. One of them hit our castle, and burnt it into ashes...
"My lord, I truly don't know what happened. I don't know how to report to my supervisors yet. Many materials that had just been collected were destroyed in the castle..."
Naturally, the High Mage was speaking the truth, or what he thought to be the truth. Lord Shawn had modified his memories. He didn't remember that Lin Yun had been here at all.
There had never been an Extraordinary Magic Tool that contained the mana marks of three worlds. The moment the aura leaked out, Lin Yun knew that it would cause a lot of attention. However, he didn't expect it to be so eye-catching that the entire Odin Kingdom would know it in half an hour.
Although the outburst had only lasted a dozen seconds, the experts who had felt the aura would definitely come to investigate. The aura could've only indicated the important breakthrough of a formidable creature, the appearance of an astonishing item, or the rise of powerful relics.
If they found anything, whether they knew it was related to the Extraordinary Magic Tool or not, they wouldn't give up easily. Then, they would spell great trouble.
If they knew that an Extraordinary Magic Tool had been born here, the Heaven Rank experts would definitely fight over it. Even the high-level experts couldn't resist such a temptation.
After all, a new natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tool meant that anybody could use it. Those people didn't know that the Extraordinary Magic Tool fitted Lin Yun perfectly, and that it had been tailor-made for him.
If they knew that Lin Yun could make Extraordinary Magic Tools, he would be in even greater trouble. After all, even the Saint Alchemists were unable to create an Extraordinary Magic Tool easily. They needed a good opportunity and a lot of favorable conditions.
To avoid trouble, Lin Yun had to leave. He even let Lord Shawn modify the memories of the supervisor of this place.
The Heaven Rank mage, who was floating in the sky, frowned. He could easily tell that the High Mage was speaking the truth, so he didn't ask further. He simply looked at the residues and left.
In the day, a dozen Heaven Rank experts had passed by the manor and asked. More than five of them were above level 6 of the Heaven Rank!
For a moment, this part of the Odin Kingdom became lively. All the forces in the north of the Odin Kingdom sent scouts to this place. The important forces in the south also sent investigators after receiving the report.
Even the Gilded Rose had sent investigators too. If the other people all sent investigators and the Gilded Rose didn't, it would be a public announcement that it knew what happened. Besides, the Gilded Rose had properties in this place, and it had the right to investigate.
The destroyed castle was rebuilt in one day. All the previous traces were cleaned up. As a result, nobody could find anything unusual in this place.
The waves of extraordinary power made everything within a radius of 1, 000 kilometers fuzzy. It was impossible to see anything valuable by looking back into the river of time. Only twisted, abstract pictures could be seen.
For a dozen days, Heaven Rank experts could be seen flying in the sky. However, as time went by, none of them found anything valuable. Gradually, they lost their passion.
After all, it had been many days. Even if there was any treasure, it had probably been taken away. It was pointless to continue the investigation after this long time.
More and more scouts retreated. Some of the persistent ones were still investigating, but Lin Yun didn't really care about them.
Having acquired an Extraordinary Magic Tool that matched him perfectly, Lin Yun was in a good mood for several days, until the visitors of the Thorny Crown came to him...
"Sir Merlin, we already pledged our loyalty to you. How can we not honor our promise? Besides, we swore on our soul and magic power. We'll still be your subordinates even if you drive us away..."
Myers seemed humble yet confident.
Lin Yun, however, frowned in silence. He was feeling a headache.
Damn. Those people were truly annoying. They had found the Gilded Rose so soon. They were the biggest organization of bloodline transplanters in Noscent anyway, yet they were desperately pledging their loyalty to someone else. Was everybody else in the Thorny Crown as crazy as Myers?
The mages and warlocks who had transplanted their bloodlines hadn't been appreciated in this age. Only the Sword Saints who had transplanted bloodlines were better, but they were only used as cannon fodder in plane conquests. They led the charge every time.
When they lost control of their bloodlines, they would attack everybody alive except themselves like insane berserkers. They couldn't really do anything except working as cannon fodder.
The Thorny Crown had gathered almost all the mages and warlocks who had transplanted bloodlines. Did they all agree to work for Lin Yun? Were they crazy?
Did they not know the trouble they caused? They would only cause greater trouble in the future, and didn't have great potential. They would only be problems if they were recruited.
"Sir Myers, I simply didn't want you to expose anything about that plane. I didn't ask anyone of the Thorny Crown to pledge loyalty to me. The Gilded Rose is too small a group to take in the Thorny Crown, which is too big.
"Please do not speak of pledging loyalty again. If you ever come to the Gilded Rose for shopping, I can give you a discount on whatever you want to buy.
"I have an important alchemy experiment to do. Feel free to take a look at the store. I've informed them."
After saying that, Lin Yun left in a hurry. He truly didn't want to get involved with the Thorny Crown. Those people had never had a good reputation. Also, there were too many maniacs in the organization, and they would surely cause a disaster.
Besides, transplanting foreign bloodlines was extremely dangerous. Every person and every bloodline was a different individual. There was never a fixed procedure for transplantation. Everybody had to study bloodline transplantation to ensure that the match rate and success rate were maximized.
However, even a perfectly matched bloodline might still fail to be transplanted, and the failure would mean death or loss of all power. There had never been a better ending.
Because of the super high failure rate, the transplantation of foreign bloodlines would be considered as an unsuccessful method and a wrong choice in the future. Those who did it barely had any prospects.
Even in Noscent's heyday, the strongest mage who had transplanted a foreign bloodline only just reached level 9 of the Heaven Rank, and he was the only one!
Very few had ever surpassed level 5 of the Heaven Rank. The bloodline transplanters, if they kept strengthening themselves with the bloodlines of the same creatures, could surpass level 5 of the Heaven Rank more easily, but they wouldn't have enough potential even if they grew stronger.
If a level-3 Heaven Rank bloodline transplanter who had absorbed the bloodline of a Lava Dragon couldn't advance further, he would have to hunt a level-4 Heaven Rank Lava Dragon, and absorb its bloodline again for a chance of advancement.
But the irony was obvious. It was barely possible for a level-3 Heaven Rank bloodline transplanter to kill a level-4 Heaven Rank Lava Dragon. As they rose to higher levels, the odds of success would further plunge.
Also, such a method had limits too, and the limits depended on the bloodline transplanters' match rate. When they hit those limits, they could hardly improve anymore.
They didn't have much potential, and a lot of them were insane. They were major problems. Lin Yun didn't want them as subordinates at all. They would be a waste of his time and efforts.
Ever since his legion mages began to grasp laws, they had been leveling up very fast. When all 50 of them advanced into the Heaven Rank, they would be able to take care of all battles unless facing top experts.
A real legion of Heaven Rank mages would definitely be powerful and shock the entire Noscent. After that, all organizations would try to recruit as many legion mages as possible.
Lin Yun left in a hurry. He really didn't want to be stuck with Myers. However, the man remained respectful and humble, and kept a low profile.
After he came, he apologized for what happened earlier, and offered a bunch of precious materials as a compensation for Lin Yun's losses before he finally talked about pledging loyalty.. As a result, Lin Yun couldn't really shut the door on him.
