I asked you to be a mage, not to raise a nine-tailed fox

Chapter 539 At that moment, Mina was like the god of arcane magic.
Arcane Spring and Magic Spring have allowed the Silver Empire to prosper for hundreds of thousands of years.

This also granted the high-ranking silver elves an almost endless lifespan.

Magic and arcane arts were developed to their fullest potential by the elves—in their hands, arcane arts could even simulate everything in this world.

Using arcane magic to mimic fire, the temperature is suddenly lowered to condense frost.

And this is just the beginning.

The study of magic and skills is still ongoing.

Finally, one day, these silver elves discovered a magic that allowed them to condense water droplets directly from the void using arcane magic as a catalyst and magical energy as a medium.

Thus, the world's first water-making technique was born.

Then came the art of food preparation and even the art of creation.

The world has lost its gods.

The realm of gods is gone.

But the Silver Elves want to create their own Elf God.

Create your own divine realm.

However, perhaps it was because his research angered the world's will.

It's also possible that they touched upon rules and forces that shouldn't be touched.

one day.

The magical spring suddenly began to churn, and the arcane spring shattered overnight.

A glorious civilization crumbled overnight.

It was through Olivia that Mina learned the complete history of the Silver Empire for the first time.

No, these are just snippets of information.

But the information gleaned from just those two hours of conversation was enough to send Mina's heart pounding.

Is this the real Silver Empire, the world's largest empire?

The once incredibly powerful Gu Ansu had only inherited a small portion of the Silver Empire's legacy.

Many of the technologies we use today have been passed down from that time.

Including emblems.

Including... the Void Tower...

"Many things are legends, and some are even secrets. Even some of the old guys in the Void Tower don't know them."

Olivia instructed Mina not to let anyone know about today's conversation.

Mina, of course, knew the intricacies of the situation.

If the Dragon Council and those high-ranking figures really find out about the relationship between the Silver Empire and the Void Tower, then Olivia's good days may be over.

Of course, it's also possible that some people above, such as that tenth-level star domain expert from the Elf Village, might already know about Olivia, the Silver Empire, and the Void Tower.

So, how old is Olivia exactly?

Mina suddenly thought of this problem: surely they couldn't have lived through that era all along.

Mina shook her head; that was unlikely.

The Silver Ruins have finally been opened.

The ruins that Mina had been searching for for so long were now revealed to him in this way.

Upon entering, Mina saw the ancient patterns.

Even after hundreds of millions of years, the stone wall still exudes magic.

All the decorations seemed to have no trace of time.

This "preservation" technology alone is far beyond the reach of modern civilization.

Mina suddenly remembered the polluted ocean in the East.

Legend has it that the ancient Ansu was destroyed because of that polluted ocean.

Is that polluted ocean related to the destruction of the Silver Empire?
or……

Mina shook her head; perhaps it was some kind of magical pollution.

It could also be the magic of chaos.

Finally, at the end of the corridor, Mina saw a huge stone gate.

Olivia reached out and placed her hand on the stone door.

Arcane light shone with a rhythm that Mina couldn't comprehend.

Compared to this unlocking method, Ernst's methods are rather weak.

With a soft click, arcane light shone on the stone door, and a crack slowly opened.

"Give me a hand."

"Ovilia said."

Mina and Catherine stepped forward and began to use their arcane and magical powers.

Mina possesses nine layers of magic, while Catherine has magic comparable to six layers.

With a thunderous roar, the gate to the ruins, which had remained closed for millions of years, was finally pushed open.

A dazzling light shone into the dark, enclosed corridor.

Beyond the gate lies a secluded paradise filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.

Billions of years have passed.

This place remains exactly the same as it always has been.

Arcane constructs meticulously manage this world.

But the moment Olivia stepped into this place...

All arcane constructs ceased functioning.

Tens of thousands of arcane constructs, whether hundreds of meters away or tens of thousands of miles away, all looked toward the gate of the ruins.

Look in the direction of Ovilia.

Then they all bowed down.

Just like millions of years ago.

All arcane constructs speak the same language.

The language was formed from arcane magic, and it resounded throughout the entire Silver Ruins in an instant.

Despite never having heard of this language before, Mina naturally understood the meaning of the words hidden within the arcane.

"Greetings, Your Majesty the Empress."

"Your Majesty?"

Mina looked at Olivia in surprise.

At this moment, Olivia's eyes shone with arcane light.

At this moment, she seemed to have returned to her former self, high above, in charge of this world.

But soon, the arcane light went out again.

With her blonde hair wavy, she scratched her head, and the once aloof queen reverted to her languid, girl-next-door persona.

"The Silver Queen is long dead. I am not an empress at all."

She strode into the silver ruins.

He introduced Mina as if she were back home.

"That is the backup magic spring. Don't be fooled by its current appearance; with just a little catalyst, it can be transformed from a stinking ditch into a real spring."

"And that pool of water, hey, you arcane construct, don't bathe in it! If the alchemists of the past saw you like this, they probably would have picked you up and refined you again."

Olivia chattered on and on, her eyes showing both the joy of returning to familiar surroundings and the unfamiliarity of seeing something new.

Many memories that never belonged to Olivia flowed naturally into her heart.

Those fragments of past memories, scene after scene of the glorious era of the elves, flashed through her mind and then faded away.

Finally, the group stopped in front of a dried-up lake.

"This is it."

I crouched down and gently stroked the stone path beside the small lake.

"This is it."

She turned around and looked at Mina.

"If you believe me, uproot the Holy Spring of Augnegula and throw it into this place."

Mina and Catherine exchanged a glance.

Catherine smiled and said, "We can give it a try."

Since she was the older sister that Mina brought back, and was recognized by Ziyi and Mina, and was also said to be Ziyi's half-student, Catherine naturally trusted Olivia unconditionally... Mina.

"But there is a condition."

She said.

Olivia looked at Catherine.

"I can't let my Mina suffer."

She smiled.

Olivia smiled too.

"of course."

Mina waved his hand and took out the Arcane Spring from the void ring on his other smaller account.

A grayish-colored power enveloped the sacred spring. With a flick of her hand, Mina tossed the sacred spring into the dried-up pool.

Suddenly, there was a jolt, as if the entire ruins were trembling.

But Olivia stabilized the entire Silver Ruins by simply casting a few arcane marks.

After a few breaths of contact with the small lake, the Arcane Spring seemed to return to its nest like fledglings.

The entire Holy Spring erupted in excited cheers.

Then the arcane power within transformed into a trickle of water, flowing into the dried-up lake.

"not enough."

Olivia frowned, crouching down to try and use arcane magic to channel the energy, but she failed.

It's too slow and takes too long.

The holy spring has been dry for far too long.

The damage from back then was too severe.

It's not something that can be repaired so easily.

If this pace continues, it will take thousands of years, let alone for them to regain their former glory.

Even lighting up the entire lake would be difficult.

"let me help you."

Mina also squatted down.

With the activation of the Eight-Stage Meditation Method, the Super Magic Perspective will reveal both the large and small holy springs, allowing for a clear view of every detail.

The power of gray hues, activate!
The fissures were so numerous, like a spider web, that they covered the entire holy spring.

The sacred springs of Orgnegula nourish the fissures, while the small lake greedily absorbs the arcane waters.

But it's too slow, too slow.

Even if the sacred spring of Augnegula were drained, it would only fill one gap.

The damage from that year was far more severe than Ovilia had imagined.

Perhaps she did not receive the complete inheritance.

A thousand years, ten thousand years—that might be an overestimation.

Apparently, an hour later, Olivia discovered a similar situation.

This made the man with the large, wavy hair look rather unpleasant.

She patted her chest and assured Mina that she would never let him suffer a loss.

But now it seems like we're going to lose a sacred spring!
How is this possible?

The power of gray color suddenly erupted.

Mina wanted to give it a try.

As expected, Arcane Gray has a great effect.

A clear crack was thus mended by his gray-colored power.

But the problem is that there are just too many cracks.

If it's just him coming... maybe a hundred years.

Even with a 100-fold acceleration, it would still take a hundred years to restore the entire Holy Spring.

How can this work?

Mina cannot possibly leave a century of history here.

Therefore, he prepared a second plan.

Heading towards the small sacred spring of Augnegula.

At that moment, he felt the "grievance" of the sacred spring and the "frustration" of its helplessness.

"It's alright, I'll help you."

The combined sacred springs of Mina and Ognegula alone might not be enough to revitalize this small lake.

But they also have outside help.

Mina closed her eyes.

The power of gray color was activated with a roar, and with the guidance and assistance of the Holy Spring of Augnegula, Mina once again saw the elemental sea of ​​the elemental core—the Arcane Sea.

That's it!

Mina reached out her hand, wanting to communicate with the arcane sea.

At that moment, the sacred spring of Augnegula trembled.

The last time Mina failed at the vault of Augnegula, it was because of the limits of the Holy Spring and the vault itself.

But this time... he also has a small lake.

The sacred spring of Augnegula has now taken root in the entire small lake.

The vibrations and feedback were all absorbed by the small lake.

boom!
The entire lake was trembling.

not enough!

not enough!

Mina gritted her teeth and frantically activated the Eight-Stage Meditation Method.

His method was too crude.

Others who wish to communicate with the Land of Elements or the Sea of ​​Origin must nurture it for at least a thousand or ten thousand years.

Mina, on the other hand, directly and forcefully broke through the barrier.

"It's not enough!"

boom!
Mina's magical sea surged to the heavens.

Since that's not enough, let's take a step forward.

He serves as a bridge, connecting the Sea of ​​Elements and the Holy Spring, linking the two together.

boom!
At this moment, Mina finally broke through that barrier. The Arcane Sea, with its surging arcane power, poured into Mina's sea of ​​magic.

If it were an ordinary person, such a single moment would have caused the sea of ​​magic to be assimilated and submerged by this endless arcane energy.

However, the Mina Magic Sea was like a world in itself, a vast ocean with surging magic power. The gray-colored power stirred up endless waves that swallowed up the arcane sea that had entered.

The small sphere of Mina's Hand was spinning wildly, while at the same time, the sky above the Magic Sea and the vast starry universe were also visible.

The Eight-Stage Meditation Method—the Augnegula Meditation Method—spins wildly, like a dragon sucking water, drawing up the vast ocean of arcane energy.

Inhaling into the endless starry universe.

Mina absorbed most of that purest arcane power.

Like an endless black hole, it sucks in as much as comes in.

With a cracking sound, the last barrier shattered.

Mina has fully established a connection with the Arcane Sea.

The arcane sea surged into Mina's magical sea.

At the same time, Mina also opened his connection to the sacred spring of Augnegula.

Using the magical sea of ​​Mina as a bridge, the arcane sea is poured into the sacred spring of Augnegula.

Amidst the roaring and shaking.

The Holy Spring of Augnegula, which had reached its limit, received nourishment from the most primal arcane energy, and its near-collapse trembling stopped.

A beam of arcane light shot into the sky, illuminating the entire sky above the Silver Ruins.

Countless arcane constructs knelt down, praising the greatness of the Silver Queen.

Olivia stared blankly at Mina, who seemed like an arcane god—the radiance of arcane magic shone upon him, and at that moment he was like arcane magic itself.

“Mina…”

She chewed on the name.

What arcane restrictions, what silver techniques?

Everything else became insignificant under the irrigation of that arcane sea.

Olivia withdrew her hand and watched as the arcane sea that Mina had summoned irrigated the dried-up lake.

The cracks that had been broken for countless years were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

One after another, arcane dragons roared and raised their heads in the arcane holy spring.

These ancient arcane dragons, which have survived to this day, have finally awakened. They look at Mina and Olivia with respect in their eyes.

One was the god of arcane arts, and the other was their former queen.

Has this day finally come?

Will the light of arcane magic finally shine upon this world once more?

Bang bang bang.

The illusory image of the arcane dragon shattered with a crash, transforming into clusters of arcane orbs. Olivia reached out, took one of the arcane orbs, and placed it in Catherine's palm.

"The egg of the Arcane Dragon can help you reach the summit of arcane magic."

Catherine looked at the Arcane Dragon Egg in her hand, feeling the life pulsating within it.

This is the legend, the Arcane Dragon, the pet of the Arcane God.

She gently stroked the dragon's egg, but her gaze was fixed on the figure in the sacred spring.

A boy who resembled a true arcane deity.
