Chapter 788 - Cold Sweat (1/2)
”Sir Barok, if you have any requests, don't hesitate, I'll write them down.”
Barok couldn't help proudly smiling as he knew that the cowards of the Merlin Family wouldn't dare to resist.
”It's very simple. Your Merlin Family shouldn't feel desirous of the Horn of Fertility's harvest, and furthermore, those three ore veins near the Horn of Fertility have to be given to our Black Tower as compensation.”
A trace of anger flashed in Thorne's eyes, but he knew that he couldn't afford to offend that arrogant guy right now, so he could only go along with his whims for the time being.
”Sir Barok, to tell you the truth, this matter is too important and I don't have the right to decide. Since Commander Mafa Merlin returned, only he is able to make this decision.”
Barok was a bit stunned, but he then waved his arm. ”That Mafa Merlin, eh? Have him come meet me.”
With an apologetic expression, Thorne answered, ”Sir Barok, I'm really sorry... Sir Mafa is in the middle of a very important alchemy experiment and already instructed us to not disturb him unless the Raging Flame Plane was on the verge of destruction. If nothing unexpected happens, Sir Mafa should come out tomorrow. How about you come back tomorrow?”
Barok frowned and said with dissatisfaction, ”Have him hurry up and come out! What alchemy experiment can be more important than me? I came here personally, yet he is still doing some random experiment?”
Thorne kept his expression neutral as he continued, ”Sir Barok, Sir Mafa is a formidable alchemist, and even I don't dare to approach his laboratory. I almost died the last time I did. Tomorrow… Sir Mafa should come out tomorrow. Sir Barok, how about you wait for a while or come back tomorrow?”
Barok looked to be in a bad mood, but before he could say anything, Thorne continued, ”Sir Barok, only Sir Mafa has the right to make decisions regarding the things you want. No one else in the Flame Demon Fort has that authority.”
Hearing this, Barok coldly snorted as his mana rose up like a tidal wave and forced Thorne to take quite a few steps back.
”Hmpf, I changed my mind! The number of veins has increased to six! When that Mafa Merlin comes out, let him know that not one less will do! If he is unwilling, I'll let you know why a prestigious 9th Rank Archmage can't be offended!”
With these words, he quickly rushed out of the reception room.
Outside, no one dared to provoke Barok, who swaggered his way out of the Flame Demon Fort.
Thorne wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and bitterly smiled. 'Fortunately, this Barok still knew not to break into the laboratory of an alchemist that wasn't a mortal enemy…'
He sent Barok away and wouldn't need to deal with this matter from now on. 'Since Sir Mafa is here, I only have to leave it to him…'
The next day, in Lin Yun's alchemy laboratory, the Draconic Staff calmly floated in midair, and there was a purple liquid continuously rotating around the staff.
The Purple Dragon Incarnation was floating at the tip of the staff, constantly cheering. The purple liquid transformed into a very thin stream that kept being swallowed by the young Purple Dragon.
As time passed, the amount of liquid rotating around the Draconic Staff kept decreasing, and the young Purple Dragon's body underwent huge changes.
That phantom-like body kept congealing and becoming more and more tangible, and the originally palm-sized Purple Dragon slowly grew to half a meter in length.
It no longer looked like a young, unweaned Dragon. It had grown quite a bit, particularly its wings.
A smile appeared on Lin Yun's face as all the purple liquid was absorbed by the Purple Dragon.
'Finally complete…'
Although the Draconic Staff didn't rank up, the improvement of the Purple Dragon Incarnation was most important!
The Incarnation was the most precious part of a True Spirit Magic Tool. Some True Spirit Magic Tools had special effects, and their power was completely embodied by their Incarnation.
Shawn was a great example. All the power of the Magic Tool lay in Shawn, and absorbing mana crystals was only to strengthen Shawn.
Although the Draconic Staff could increase casting speed and spell power, the difference between it and the support of the Purple Dragon was like the difference between heaven and earth.
But strengthening a True Spirit Magic Tool's Incarnation was very challenging. He'd had a hard time getting these precious materials in order to strengthen the Incarnation, so how could he dare to be careless?
Lin Yun was already an Artisan and had very cautiously created a solvent from the materials. Everything had been done with strict standards, as he was afraid of failure.
Because he wouldn't find a second set of materials if he failed.
The result was very successful. The Draconic Staff was priceless, and the power of the Purple Dragon increased by more than half, which would increase Lin Yun's fighting power by at least half when supporting him!
Lin Yun's base power was already terrifying to begin with, but a 50% increase was crazy. Enderfa would be terrified if he learnt about that.
