Chapter 619: Morus, Go Do Something! (1/2)

Gravis scratched his chin as he looked at Morus. He honestly had totally forgotten him. With Morus' new mindset, he wouldn't dare to speak up by himself without having a good reason to, which made him remain silent at a distance.

”Have you watched me for the past 95 years?” Gravis asked Morus.

”Yes, Master,” Morus said deferentially.

”Did you, at least, learn something?” Gravis asked.

Morus nodded. ”I have learned a lot about the Laws, Master. Your mastering of the Laws has given me insights into my own Laws. Your continual creation of heat, especially, taught me a lot more about fire and how to use it.”

Gravis sighed. ”Man, and I nearly had a bad conscience about boring you for so long. But, hey, it's good that you learned something during that time. Yet, I don't want to unnecessarily bore you,” Gravis said as he fell into thought.

After some seconds, a light gleam appeared inside Gravis' eyes.

”Morus,” Gravis said with authority.

”Master!” Morus said, realizing that Gravis had an order.

”Join the war from the side of the land beasts' camp and become a level three Emperor,” Gravis ordered.

”I will, Master,” Morus said as he immediately shot away into the distance. He didn't dare question his Master's orders.

Gravis rubbed his chin in satisfaction as he set another plan into motion. 'This will become interesting,' he thought.

Then, he turned back to the Grand Lake. 'I should continue with the Law of Heat,' Gravis thought.

And sure enough, Gravis went back to creating more heat.

15 years later. Gravis had been in seclusion for 120 years, his longest seclusion yet.

BOOOOM!

'Finally!' Gravis thought with excitement. It had taken him a full 45 years to understand the Law of Heat, but in the end, he succeeded. Another level two Law was added to the ever-growing pile.

'This will be of some help,' Gravis thought. 'With this Law, I can weaken someone else. The heat will make it difficult for my enemy to regenerate themselves, and they need to continually keep their defenses up. At least, that's how it would go against someone three levels above me. In order to use that Law effectively against someone four levels above me, I would need to keep them weakened with my other Composition Laws.'

'Sadly, keeping this Law running requires Energy, which is not a resource that I can use lightly in such a terrifying fight. So, I guess that this Law won't help me that much, actually. Yet…' Gravis thought as he trailed off, his gaze wandering to the sky.

Then, Gravis shook his head wildly. 'No! Not yet! One thing after the other. Let's first finish the other Mixed Elemental Laws. After that, I can take a look at the more exotic Laws,' Gravis thought as he smirked.

'Only the Mixed Laws involving lightning remain. This will be very fun!' Gravis thought.

BZZZZZ!

Gravis summoned some lightning in his hand and gathered some earth in the other. Then, he pushed them together, which was the same way he had learned about the Law of Liquid Metal.

CRRRR!

And the stone broke apart as it was destroyed by the lightning.

First, Gravis frowned, but then he realized the issue. 'Punishment Lightning is a level three Law while this is only the most normal kind of earth, which represents a level one Law. My Punishment Lightning is too powerful for a fusion.'

Gravis smirked. 'Well, I already understand the Composition Law of Lightning, so I can just use Destruction Lightning,' Gravis thought.

BZZZZ!
