820 Bringing Your Lover Along To Training Part 2 (1/2)

The remodeling of Metatrin City was still ongoing. As the walls required no reinforcements or repairs of any kind, Jason focused on the layout of the city grounds. When the construction of all thirty-six magic towers had finished, the airspace three-thousand yards above Metatrin City would be rendered a no-fly zone.

Such measures would make the city's defense on par with Holy Rock City's. That meant that there would no longer be any grade-9 sorcerers capable of bombing the city from above, as the range of magic attacks rarely exceed three-thousand yards. Some physical attack-based magic spells were able to exceed such a range, unlike elemental attacks. Such attacks would still be rendered completely ineffective when they reach their targets.

Metatrin City became an orderly place after undergoing remodeling from Jason and other sorcerers. The vicinity of the temple was defended entirely by the temple guards. The south of the city was made into a residential area for Caucasus people and the families of the temple guards.

Functions of other places remained unchanged, but the roads were rebuilt. Magical facilities of sorts were also installed into every household.

The hunting fleet returned, suffering losses in the form of several bone warships, but the dragon skeleton combat vessels were able to take prizes in the form of high level magic beasts, which completely made up for the losses.

Two bone warships were even able to take out a severely injured single-horned white whale.

The single-horned white whale was a grade-9 creature, but had the combat capacity of more than a dozen grade-9 creatures. It was so fearsome that krakens would have hesitated to fight it. The creature had been near the end of its life, and swam with all its might to the oceanic ice block--its final resting place. It was attacked by tens of vampsharks on its journey. Killing these vampsharks took a heavy toll on the whale's stamina, and thus the bone warships were able to take the prize.

The whale was the most powerful creature below grade-10, and the magic nucleus in its brain was incredibly huge, so much so that a spatial crate proved inadequate for storage. A magic nucleus of such a size was enough to be cut into one-thousand standard-sized pieces.

What did that mean? That meant that even if Saleen was to fight wars every day for the next several years, he would not need to fear running out of high level magic nuclei.

Spirits of the dead recorded the fight with the whale faithfully, and that made Saleen shudder. Grade-8 magic beasts were so much more powerful than expected. The whale would have been capable of feats way above grade-9 mages'. The creature still had enough left in it to destroy several warships and killed so many level grade-8 sharks, even being severely injured and nearing the end of its life. Worse still, the leader of said sharks was a grade-9 creature itself.

As he watched the battle with the dying creature and read information recorded on the magic compass, an unbelievable thought came across Saleen's mind.

There was a cemetery of single-horned white whales in the oceanic ice block, where every whale nearing their end of their lives would go to wait for their end. If they were able to locate the cemetery, that would mean that they would have found a treasure trove containing innumerable giant magic nuclei. Each and every one of the nuclei would be items grade-9 or above. Each and every single-horned white whale of old were, after all, definitely very high level creatures.

Saleen was also clear of the fact that, without the powers of grade-9, there would have been no coming back once one ventured deep within the oceanic ice block.

Levels of magic beasts in the waters were different from humans. Magic beasts of grade-8 or grade-9 would prove to be tough opponents to even for grade-9 sorcerers. The creatures had the advantage of terrain. If humans were to dive deep into the ocean, the drop in combat capacity would have been proportionate with the depth.

Other than that, mining operations at the mineral veins north of the Demon City had commenced. Mages of Sregl Island had also provided the formula to create magic crystals. That meant that Saleen had earned himself another stockpile of supplies for war. While these resources were not renewable ones, they were nonetheless safer options than hunting expeditions in faraway seas.

A supply of slaves and demons would prove adequate to keep the ores flowing from the mines to the alchemic factories in Metatrin City.

The situation with the war on the mainland changed every day, yet there were no signs of bloodshed to be found in Metatrin. Lex finally brought five grade-9 sorcerers from the Hell of God's Punishments when Nailisi returned.

Lex felt slightly jealous when she saw Sika's children, the feeling of jealousy grew even stronger knowing that Saleen wanted to take them to train.

Lex kept all that to herself, as she kept telling herself that there would be a day when she would have children with Saleen too. She told herself that Saleen would love her most by then.

It did not take as long as she expected to advance into the rank of a grade-9 sorcerer. The winter was over and the time was May. Greenery was seen everywhere in the Kingdom of Metatrin. Lex composed herself and teleported Saleen, Sika, and Nailisi into the interdimensional space.

The two children smiled all the way under the protection of the God's ring, ignorant of the pain they would have had to endure otherwise.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Only Jason was able to understand Saleen's actions. From the perspective of everyone else, what Saleen did was no less than surreal. While it was not a weird thing to bring one's maid along for repairs, it definitely was unbelievable to bring one's lover and children along into such an ordeal. If one such mage was without doubt, he might become the most powerful mage the world had ever seen.

They were able to enter the magic tower effortlessly when he arrived at the Hell of God's Punishments, as Saleen was equipped with the crystal ring. All three of them had been here before, and thus had no problem navigating their way to the tenth floor of the tower.

All floors of the tower had had their valuables picked clean. Saleen's identity and wealth were different being there that time. He handed a good number of grade-9 magic nuclei to Nailisi to have the tower in full operation, while he went about setting down everyday items.

It took Nailisi a great deal of effort to come see Saleen. She would have missed the chance to come there if she were to arrive days later. Lex was not, after all, a driver who had all the time in the world to transport people here and there. Transporting just one more person took quite a bit of her ring's powers.
