Chapter 511 - Link’s Enduring Wisdom(2/3) (2/2)
Finally, Gretel said, “From now on, you are all God’s messengers. Go back and spread God’s glory. Tell everyone that God’s light will soon descend.”
“Mighty messenger, praise thee.”
“I will not disappoint you.”
“May light remain for eternity!”
To show their reverence, they retreated on their knees and kowtowed towards the castle after each step. When they couldn’t see the castle anymore, they rose and ran away excitedly to spread the glory.
Seeing that, Gretel just sighed. Thoreau, you really scared them too much. Now, they’re willing to give up everything just for the bit of hope.
It was all thanks to Thoreau. Gretel didn’t know what secret spell that guy used to live thousands of years. He’d been terrorizing these mortals all this time and ended up creating such a cult-like religion. If this force was unleashed, it would be terrifying. If used correctly, they could even rewrite Firuman’s history. Gretel felt that she couldn’t ignore this force. She had to use them but had to discuss with Link about how to do it.
Thinking of this, she returned to the alchemy room. Link was still scribbling in his notes though. He didn’t even change his posture.
How long will it take this time?
This type of thought process was very valuable. Gretel obviously wouldn’t disturb Link; she could only wait.
For the next few days, Link didn’t eat, drink, sleep, or even talk. He just fought with his notes. Gretel didn’t rest either. She thought about how to upgrade the materials. The demon elder would bring pilgrims over every day. Gretel would meet them and cast a low-level dragon healing spell to everyone, telling them to spread the glory.
Half a month passed like this. Finally, Link walked out of the room holding his magic notes.
Gretel had been waiting. “How is it?” she asked impatiently.
Link was still energetic. He opened his notes and flipped to the conclusion. “There’s some good news and some bad news.”
“Tell me the good news first.”
“With my idea, we can indeed raise a material to Level-19. More accurately, it’s Level-19.9, the limit of this realm.”
“What’s the bad news?”
“I’m now sure that there’s no way to raise a material to Level-20 with Legendary power. The Origin is the limit of Legendary power…Perhaps it can reach Level-20 temporarily, but it won’t be stable. The material would be destroyed instantly.”
“Oh. And the rest of the good news?” Gretel asked.
“The second thing is that even though we can’t get Level-20 buffer material, we can use a special magic seal, and Level-19 material would be enough. The cost though is that the magic seal would be reduced to Level-23, not the Level-26 that we predicted.”
Gretel wasn’t disappointed. “Level-23 is enough.”
In the Legendary levels, trying to increase one’s level was practically impossible. The Origin was even more so. Level-20 was already like a dream. If Link could create a Level-23 attack, it would be incredible.
Gretel was instantly interested by the idea of the piece of Level-19.9 material that Link mentioned. Disregarding manners, she grabbed Link’s notes and started reading.
The notes were messy, dense, and obscure. It was difficult for Gretel to understand at the beginning. Furrowing her brows, she forced herself through.
A painful half an hour later, she suddenly understood Link’s thoughts. The reading process became smoother after that. It was like an open road after that. The exquisite wisdom rushed down like a waterfall. The conclusion after the road gave her a hearty feeling.
After reading, Gretel looked up sadly. “Link, how do I repay you for such enduring wisdom?”
This type of material production method was the limit of this realm. It was invaluable; it could become the foundation for any race and be passed down for generations.
