This crazy wizard is quite stable

Chapter 235 Isaac and the Three-Eyed Goblin's Ritual!

With the addition of Rona's dragon horde and the Silver Knight's puppet army, the precarious situation at the border of the expansion territory instantly stabilized. In fact, the expansion, which had stalled for several days, resumed its outward advance.

And so, a week passed quickly, and the territory they had expanded had grown another circle.

However, by this point, outward expansion had completely ceased, as Isaac's trading needs had been met, and there was no longer any need to waste energy on it.

So on this day, as Smith and his companions were fighting against the attacking high-level monsters, shadowy spatial fluctuations appeared in the sky above the center of the Expansion Territory. Isaac's figure slowly emerged from them, looking at the vast land beneath his feet with a slightly shocked expression on his face.

Although he had already obtained information about the Pioneer Territory from Smith, the Dimensional Apostles, and others, he was still somewhat shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.

It's important to know that it took Solomon nearly a hundred years and two or three generations of hard work to get to where he is today!

And now, Isaac has achieved this in less than a month.

Of course, Isaac also knew that his pioneering territory was completely different from a normal pioneering territory. A normal pioneering territory had proper management. After all, pioneering wars were time-consuming and quite intense, and it was impossible to just sit around and do nothing; one had to recoup some of the costs.

Therefore, no matter how much a pioneering territory is biased towards military affairs, it must have a certain economic foundation, at least in terms of infrastructure.

But Isaac is different. He never thought about managing this territory, only using it for sacrifices. So, not only were there no infrastructures, but even the paths that the monsters originally walked on were completely destroyed in the battle, leaving the territory in ruins!
Without a doubt, this was a failure as a pioneer.

However, as a sacrificial offering, its value was not diminished in the slightest.

Because most of the resources within the territory are still there and in an undeveloped state, and at the same time, under the effect of the Infinite Expansion Order, it has become part of the real world and possesses the concept of the real world. This is the most important part of the entire sacrificial ceremony.

As long as this point remains unaffected, no matter how dilapidated or desolate the interior may be, it will not affect the sacrifice.

Theoretically, Isaac could have mined all the resources in the territory first and then sacrificed them, but this process would have taken too long, and it was his first time exploring, so he had no experience.

So let's leave it at that this time. Next time, we'll loot more thoroughly. Maybe we can even develop a floating city?
A jumble of thoughts flashed through Isaac's mind, but he quickly dismissed them and focused on the task at hand.

Isaac, standing in the air, gently waved his hands, and wisps of magic flowed from his body, instantly spreading throughout the entire frontier territory. The delicate magical threads penetrated into every corner of the territory, guiding out and arranging the [concepts] needed for the sacrificial ritual.

After being promoted to High Wizard, rituals became a relatively convenient form of magic for Isaac, and he could set up many rituals directly without needing many complicated materials.

Because the concept itself is the best material!

In an instant, a huge, invisible ritual array enveloped the entire Expansion Territory, and all the other beings in the territory, except for the Dimensional Apostles, tensed up at that moment.

Because they could clearly sense the gaze of a powerful and incredible being watching them.

In that instant, whether it was the monsters controlled by the will of the wilderness or Smith and the others, they all left the Frontier Territory at top speed. Even the Dimensional Apostles, who could resurrect infinitely, all fled into the Dimensional World.

In an instant, the vast pioneer territory was left with only Isaac and the Three-Eyed Goblin.

The ritual was complete. Isaac looked down at the three-eyed goblin with curiosity, wondering why it wouldn't leave. After all, the one opposite him in the ritual was an evil god, whose status was no less than that of a dimensional demon god.

Let alone a dimensional apostle from a newly emerging dimension like him, even a dimensional apostle of a legitimate demon god would truly die in the face of such an existence.

However, when Isaac saw the Three-Eyed Goblin's eyes, he smiled slightly and did not directly order it to leave. Instead, he allowed it to stay and observe, and even specially separated some concepts to protect it from being swallowed up by the power of the evil god.

Because he saw an extremely intense gaze in the three-eyed goblin's eyes, it was...

An unparalleled yearning for knowledge, for the future, and for power!
Isaac had always admired the Three-Eyed Goblin for its research skills, and he had high expectations for this miracle of life. He wanted to know if the miracle of life would be repeated in it, which is why he gave it the treasure he had once used, the Silver Moon Vine.

Unfortunately, after obtaining the Noble Phantasm, the Three-Eyed Goblin's strength did indeed increase significantly. He was also the second most meritorious contributor to this expedition, second only to the Holy Lord. He even caused the Demon Eye between his eyebrows to evolve again, gaining the ability to steal souls.

The Soul-Stealing Demon Eye is a rather powerful demon eye.

But Isaac wasn't really satisfied with this, because these improvements were just standard improvements, things it could have already reached, and now it had just reached them ahead of schedule.

This is nothing.

At least for the Three-Eyed Goblin, it's nothing.

Because it is a goblin, and the upper limit of a goblin is limited. Even if it becomes a dimensional apostle and has infinite life and infinite possibilities, it is still a goblin. Under the constraints of this body and bloodline, its path will be much more difficult, and it may not even be able to realize the infinite possibilities of a dimensional apostle.

Especially when its Mystic Eyes are awakened, they are powerful, but after the regular Soul-Stealing Mystic Eyes are awakened, that potential becomes even harder to realize.

But now it’s different…

Seeing the gleam in the Three-Eyed Goblin's eyes, Isaac decided to give it another chance. Perhaps another miracle could happen to it?

Isaac didn't try to hide his actions, so the Three-Eyed Goblin naturally noticed Isaac's protective behavior, which moved it deeply, but also made the madness in its eyes grow stronger!
Your Majesty has it in mind!

For the Three-Eyed Goblin, nothing could be more inspiring!

Even if it means death, it would be worth it!
Of course, the Three-Eyed Goblin didn't want to die. It wanted to stay by His Majesty's side and serve him. If it died like this, wouldn't it be letting His Majesty down?
So, while the madness in its eyes intensified, so too did its longing. Under this frenzied emotion, the magic within it began to flow rapidly, and wisps of concepts silently merged into, or rather, attached to, Isaac's ritual.

Isaac was unaware of this, or rather, he didn't pay attention to it. After all, the Three-Eyed Goblin evoked too few concepts, not even enough to cause a fluctuation in the success rate of his ritual, so naturally it didn't attract his attention.

As time passed, the ritual began swiftly, and illusory grids of light enveloped the entire pioneering territory from the sky.

This scene, witnessed by those outside the territory, caused Smith and the others to look somewhat grave. Although they knew Isaac possessed a trump card capable of contending with Outer Gods, allowing him to gain an advantage in every ritual, knowing this was one thing, but knowing it was still being an Outer God, and it was impossible not to worry. Meanwhile, this scene, observed by the demons, caused the will of the wilderness to quietly fade from them.

After this period of fighting, the Will of the Wilderness has realized the strength of this group. The monsters nearby alone cannot defeat them, and the monsters further away are not so easy to control.

After all, although the will of the wilderness is superior to all the monsters of the wilderness, it is ultimately just the collective consciousness of many beings in the wilderness, and it can only act according to certain rules, without its own will.

This is why some people have succeeded in exploring the wilderness.

However, the most important reason for the retreat of the Wild Will was Isaac's actions.

Although the monsters controlled by the will of the wilderness are foolish, they are not stupid themselves. They can see that Isaac wants to sacrifice this land to the evil god, which means that Isaac is not in cahoots with the will of the real world.

Then there's no need for a fight.

In the worldview of Wilderness Will, things are that simple: as long as you don't help the real world, that's fine.

After all, we couldn't get this land back anyway.

As long as it's not given to the real world, it can be given to anyone!

At first, Smith and the others were on guard as they watched the monsters scatter, worried that there might be some kind of conspiracy. But after a while, when they saw that the monsters had really left, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Although these monsters pose no threat to them, Isaac is currently at a critical juncture, and if these monsters were to disturb him, the situation would become very serious.

However, Smith and his group were clearly overthinking it. The moment the ceremony officially began, no one except the gods could stop it!

Above the territory, Isaac waved his hands to the sides, a wizard's hat appearing in one hand and a staff in the other. After putting on the hat, he gently tapped the staff downwards in the air, and an invisible wave spread out, and the gaze of a powerful being descended upon him!

Isaac's demonic eye between his brows opened, curiously examining the being to see which unlucky fellow it was.

Lord Yelinus, the Lord of Imaginary Numbers, is an evil god who wields power over illusion and data. He is highly skilled at using the power of information pollution. He can distort the form of life on a spiritual level simply by infusing a large amount of polluted information!
It is an extremely terrifying evil god!

Furthermore, it also possesses a portion of the authority over imaginary magic, making it a coveted evil god, much to Isaac's envy.

However, this time his target is not the power of the imaginary number. His anchor point with the real world is not yet very stable, so it is not suitable for him to pick up the power of the Outer Gods again.

This time, he was simply aiming for Yelinus's data authority, hoping to use His power to reshape his own dimension.

"Interesting wizard. It's been many years since a wizard offered their territory as a sacrifice... Arrogant little thief! You're asking for death!"

Yelinos's leisurely yet terrifying words were cut short as he was forced to stop, letting out an angry shout, all because...

Isaac has already started collecting...

With his increased strength, Isaac is now more at ease when trading with the Outer Gods than before. For example, before, he would first exchange a few pleasantries with the Outer Gods before pretending to set a trading target to distract them.

Finally, it's time to start collecting.

But things are different now. Isaac has now been promoted to a high wizard and has a more thorough understanding of the world, especially regarding the trade with the Outer Gods.

Now, even without considering the success rate of his cheat system, he knows when to back down.

So as soon as the ceremony began, the picking started immediately, without any hesitation!

"You little thief! You *****! I *****! *****! *****!"

Listening to Yelinos's incredibly foul curses, Isaac nonchalantly picked at his ear, then continued to gather the unwanted power and continuously channel it into the dimensional world, transforming it to give it the ability to store data.

Of course, this is just the basic goal. Since we've already started making deals with the evil god, it's best to go straight to the stomach and also get the ability to output junk information, so we don't have to look for other Outer Gods later.

It's better to handle things from two different perspectives; this way, it'll save Yelinos some trouble.

While Isaac was busily transforming his dimensional world, on the other side, in a corner of a massive ritual array, the Three-Eyed Goblin was also undergoing a silent transformation!

Around the three-eyed goblin, a rudimentary magic circle was slowly taking shape. Although simple, the magic circle was complete in every way, silently drawing down a trace of immense power from the vast ritual that covered the entire frontier territory!

Of course, it can't be said that it was completely silent; the commotion was actually quite significant. However, Isaac was currently focused on his battle with Yelinos, so he didn't notice the Three-Eyed Goblin's actions.

And what about Yelinos?

He did notice, after all, the force that drew them there originated from Him.

However, He didn't care either, because the Three-Eyed Goblin was Isaac's dimensional apostle. His aura might seem completely different to others, but to a god, it was the same.

Therefore, Yelinus believed that this was just a little trick by Isaac to distract Him, and He would not be easily fooled!
And so, by a twist of fate, the ritual that the three-eyed goblin was supposed to fail at actually proceeded smoothly...

The miracle of life is about to be repeated in it...

Under the influence of Yelinos's power, the three-eyed goblin's body began to completely disintegrate!
First the feet, then the hands, then the torso, and finally even the head collapsed, leaving only a demonic eye floating in a ball of dark green magic!
However, although the Three-Eyed Goblin's body was gone, it did not mean that it had failed; on the contrary, it had succeeded!
It not only successfully shed the goblin's ugly body, but also completed the legendary wizard's ascension ceremony in one fell swoop!
Now, it is a standard, officially recognized wizard!
