"Deep within the Demonic Calamity Domain, there is an area that the Order Investigation Team has yet to explore. We call it the 'Resurrection Garden.'"
Melgon spoke from the perspective of the Order Investigation Team, saying, "It's a place that seems to be the birthplace of the evolving world. Although it's incredible and hard to explain in words, you can feel it as long as you are there.
"We don't think it's some kind of Jedi secret realm. It's more like a newborn world with incredible rules, where we can witness all kinds of things coming into being from nothing. But because exploring it requires spiritual manipulation, it's difficult to make progress."
Li Ang suddenly felt that what Melgon said was familiar. He ate the ice cream and thought for a while. When the spoon reached the bottom of the glass, he finally remembered where he had heard similar words.
"Miss Licia Dorn, the deputy leader of the Order Investigation Team, invited me to explore the Demonic Disaster Zone with her because I have the ability to manipulate spirits. So this is the place she was talking about?"
"That must be it." Melegon nodded.
Leon was a little surprised that the orange-haired girl was not joking. After thinking about it carefully, it was probably because high-level sorcerers were rare.
"Even though there are few sorcerers, with the guild's capabilities, we should be able to find some, right?"
"The Resurrection Garden is a very strange place. It lacks the concept of physical space. With one step, the surrounding environment and everything around you can completely change. Ordinary sorcerers can't do this. It requires a sorcerer who can handle a variety of situations, because even the escort can be separated by inexplicable forces."
Melegon touched the relic's lion face. "When I first found this, I was transported to a region of flames. Everything was constantly being destroyed and reborn in the flames. After destroying a series of fire monsters, I encountered a monster with the appearance of the Awakening Lion. After I killed it, I obtained this relic."
"The appearance of the Awakening Lion? You mean, it looks the same, but it's not the Transcendental Beast?"
"Yes, it's much weaker. I can take it down alone."
Leon pondered, "Perhaps that was just some kind of prototype. It will grow to the level of destroying Newbis later."
"That's a possibility, but the investigation team hasn't yielded any results yet. We can only speculate that the Six Destroyers are most likely related to the Resurrection Garden. Furthermore, other investigating knights have also seen monsters similar to the other five of the Six Destroyers."
The Six World-Destroying Dragons... These six monsters will appear in turn every two years, with a cycle of twelve years. Aqua had previously hinted that these six super monsters might become stronger, which reminded Leon that perhaps the Six Dragons knew something about the "Garden of Resurrection".
However, exploring that place was the Order Investigation Team's job. Li Ang roughly sorted out his thoughts and didn't take it too seriously.
"Well, no matter the secret behind it, it's a good thing anyway, so I'll take it. Thank you."
Faced with Melegon's sincerity, refusing would make him seem incompetent, so Leon accepted this sleeping lion.
After handing the two items to Leon, Melegon said goodbye and left. Before leaving, he left a promise: "If you have any trouble in the Floros airspace, you can ask the Flower Sword Group and me for help."
As Leon watched the Knight Commander, whose reputation in his heart was getting higher and higher, leave, he found that Levi was staring at the sleeping Lion Mask.
"Leon, this thing is so strange."
What does Dragon Ancestor think?
Li Ang immediately asked: "What did you find?"
"Its power is somewhat similar to Agni's, yet quite different."
The mind of the Sea Serpent Ancestor is still at the level of a child, but her memory has recovered a lot. At least, she knows clearly who the Dragon Ancestor and the Six Dragons are.
After adjusting his wording, Leon finally understood what he wanted to say: the power of the Sleeping Lion Mask could rival that of the Fire Dragon, but it seemed like something that did not belong to this world.
This puzzled Leon. These clues seemed to indicate that the Six World-Destroying Strikes came from outside of Newbis. So where did they come from? Beyond the third-dimensional starry sky? Were they the culprits behind the destruction of the Stargazer civilization?
Suddenly, he had many more questions about the world. Leon wrote them down and temporarily dismissed them from his mind. Before getting more information, thinking about them would be fruitless and a waste of energy.
Just as he was about to put the Sleeping Lion into the dimensional rift, he saw the girls walking out of the barber shop.
"What? What good stuff did Leon hide?"
Zoe saw him putting things away and ran over immediately.
Several other people also gathered around curiously. After Li Ang explained briefly, the girls gathered around the holy object and marveled at it.
Afterwards, they ordered desserts and just as they calmed down, they pulled Li Ang over to comment on their new hair.
Although Dorothy often complains, she is serious and reliable when it comes to giving advice to girls who are not familiar with fashion, and she will not do anything rash.
I didn't look closely when I ran over, but when I admired them one by one, I was suddenly amazed.
Zoe had the smallest adjustment, only having her chestnut hair dyed lightly to gold, but this was just right. Combined with her already delicate doll-like face, she no longer looked like an adventurer, and an inexplicable noble temperament emanated from her whole body.
When I first met Andasu, she had messy haircut to look like a boy. But after repeated trimmings, she is now clearly a beautiful girl, with a slightly tomboyish style. However, a closer look reveals her beauty.
Alulu originally had two pigtails, but this time she had them maintained and trimmed. Now they are soft and draped down to her waist, forming long straight pink hair.
Even though she had the strong features of a Bullhorn woman, she looked more like a sporty type. But by simply letting her hair down, she suddenly became an elegant girl with a big breast. Her pink hair and purple eyes were quite dreamy, and she unexpectedly possessed super strong powers.
Meimei, who was hiding in the back and acting shy, had her white hair curled at Dorothy's suggestion. The thin white hair that was originally attached to her little head and cheeks became layered, making her look much more mature and a little gorgeous.
As for Dorothy herself, she was very satisfied with her unusual rainbow-colored hair. After all, it was an effect that could not be achieved even by dyeing. She proudly said that the hairdresser had gone to great lengths to find out how to achieve this effect.
"If you were bragging about your hair, why did you cut it short?" asked Leon.
Dorothy simply cut her long hair short, and immediately switched from the dreamy feeling of a forest fairy to the style of an urban beauty.
"Changing the style will give you some freshness."
The woman in question spoke with a hint of meaning, but except for the ignorant Dragon Twins, the other girls showed more or less changes in expression, even Farina who smiled meaningfully.
Farina didn't make any changes to her image, except for maintaining her thick, curly, fiery red hair.
After finishing their dessert with them amidst the harsh gazes of the people at the next table and passersby, Li Ang looked at the time and it was time to go shopping.
It is convenient to have your own boat. You can just go back to the port when you need to rest. If it weren’t for the Yongxia, you might still be spending time looking for a place to stay.
"Let's go, as planned. You guys gather daily necessities, and I'll take An to look for suitable materials."
"Eh? Why do you take it for granted that you're alone? Are you going to do anything bad?" Dorothy complained.
The white wolf's tail swung violently.
Canary frowned: "Wait..."
"Let's go, stop making noise."
Li Ang took the lead and seeing him do so, the girls dispersed in groups of two or three.
Walking side by side with the beast-eared girl towards the adventure goods area, Leon smelled the girl's fragrance as soon as he turned the corner.
Once out of their sight, Andasu no longer felt any sense of distance.
Because of the passionate love, Li Ang let her get close to him, and together they searched for materials related to her practice. Inadvertently, they touched the most beautiful softness from time to time.
Li Ang also found it difficult to convince himself to be honest, and even if they maintained a serious appearance in an environment with many people watching, it could be seen from the eyes of others that in the eyes of outsiders, they were undoubtedly a pair of lovers.
In the alchemy equipment store, Leon held up a crucible-like vessel and asked, "Is this suitable?"
"Almost." The girl nodded. In her hands were some herbs and monster materials, which were all materials for making incense.
Through methods such as bleaching, calcining, quenching, and roasting, these materials of various forms can be transformed into spices with medicinal properties, which can be used to display the skills of perfumers.
Li Ang is not only concerned about the creation of a blood-control device used to purify blood, but also about the special professional training of the Yunxiang tribe.
While discussing how to prepare for the cultivation process and the direction of incense making, the girl always had a faint smile on her face and the sweet fragrance lingered.
372. Rune Bark
Since the system had incorporated some of the Perfumer's career paths, Leon could also see the main types of perfumes it could concoct. As befitting a legacy of an ancient lost people, its auxiliary effects covered everything from attack and dodge to recovery, not to mention the sorcerer's spiritual manipulation, which was truly profound.
The raw materials for spices are easy to buy because the core of the perfumer's power is the blood of the Yunxiang tribe, but the materials for the blood control device are rare. There are no suitable ones in the adventure area, so Leon and Andasu ran to the magic area.
However, he was planning to go to the magic district to do something, so it wasn't a long detour.
The first thing is that he also has materials to buy. They are not ordinary monster materials, but plant materials that have been specially processed as the main body. He wants to use them to make a kind of... It is not a magic wand, but it is indeed similar to it.
That thing is a spell stealing auxiliary prop recorded in the jade piece in the secret box of the Dark Night Ancient City, which can enhance the strength of spell stealing to the level of stealing secrets.
According to his own spiritual manipulation skills and craftsman knowledge, this thing is an amplifier specially equipped for spell stealing. The record in the jade piece says that its name is "Arunak's Scepter".
You won’t know how magical it is until you create it.
The second thing to do was to find the Treasure House in Flower City and visit Faronio to inquire about Ellaphia's recent situation. Although this elusive profiteer Douding and the blonde Douding were not on good terms, they were actually always thinking about each other.
The third thing was to find the contact point of the Yijie Association in the trade capital to see if the task he entrusted them with had been completed.
The two walked and looked around. Most of the goods in the magic area were various magic supplies, alchemical potions, purified spell materials, adventure props and combat equipment. What they needed were special goods.
Magical items include various automatic tools like enchanted brooms and enchanted kitchen utensils, but the latter lack originality and can only cook a few repetitive recipes, making them completely inferior to chefs. Most people only buy automatic tools for cleaning, with airship exterior cleaning being the best-seller.
However, the goods that can be seen in the Trade Capital are basically exported from Qianta City. The Yongxia does need such items, but since he will go there later, Li Ang has seen a truly excellent cleaning tool, which is a complete cleaning system designed by a designer with the identity of a magician, so he plans to consider it after going there.
Alchemical potions are things like weapon oils and strengthening potions. For example, they can be applied to weapons to cause flames to rise, thereby making fire-attribute slashes, or they can be consumed to temporarily increase strength. Basically, they are only useful for Sky Knights below the Excellence Realm who cannot use magic to create pure magic substances. Moreover, they are too expensive and less efficient than Sky Knights with auxiliary abilities.
Leon had used a lot of purified spellcasting materials before, and a lot of his income was used to buy such items, which was also the reason why some people felt that spells were too restrictive. But now that he was holding Ollihack, he no longer needed these things.
While introducing the wide range of goods to Andasu, he walked to a remote place in the magic area and found suitable supplies in a very tribal-style store.
Andasu looked around in surprise. Even with her knowledge of having lived on an island in the Glittering Wilderness for many years, she could see that the decoration inside the store was too primitive.
Fur and feathers of birds and beasts are hung everywhere. In the monster material shop, they should usually be stacked and waiting to be shipped in batches, but here they are processed into ornaments together with bones and sharp teeth.
However, upon closer inspection, you will find that these ornaments are also commodities, but the owner seems to have no intention of selling them. There are no trademarks or prices, and they are just hung there casually.
The person sitting quietly in the store who was suspected to be the owner was an old man who was also wearing fur. He only glanced at the two when they entered the door and remained silent, making Andasu unsure of the situation.
Li Ang originally intended to come in and try his luck, but he didn't expect to actually find it.
In his hand, he held a bundle of bark, which was covered with dust. Even the bark itself had fallen off due to weathering. There was an engraving of a miniature magic circle on it. Due to the years of dust accumulation, it looked very inconspicuous. Li Ang discovered it only through spiritual detection.
【Rune Ancient Bark】
[It comes from ancient trees that are very old and contain rich tree spirits. It has undergone special inheritance and processing to ensure the flow of spirits. It is an excellent material for creating spiritual equipment.]
[Level: 7]
Spirituality: Gathering all spirits and guiding their flow
[Use: Spellcasting Materials, Equipment Manufacturing [Spiritual]]
When he picked up the bark, the old man raised his head and stared at his hand.
Li Ang frowned slightly. He felt the spiritual fluctuations from the other person. He was observing him in some way.
Spells? Or a witch doctor or shaman with similar abilities?
At this moment, Leon also noticed the old man's attire. The leather and bird feathers on his body had been spiritually manipulated, and seemed to be responding to some kind of spirituality.
He immediately used the system panel to observe the old man.
[Name: Mujiu·Condor Totem]
[Race: Unknown]
[Occupation: Shaman, Level 6]
[Summoned Beasts: Bird Soul, Level 5. Beast Soul, Level 5. Storm Spirit, Level 6]
Energy Source: None
[Equipment: Shaman Beast Cloth, Level 4. Swamp Walk Boots, Level 4]
[Secret: Professional Secret - Beast Spirit Run]
[Skills: Shaman [Healing Water Wave, Elemental Shield, Communication with Spirits]]
[Combat Power Increase: 44%]
He was indeed a shaman, and some of his characteristics made Leon concerned.
Shaman is actually the name of a primitive religion, and it is also the abbreviation or nickname for the priests or wizards of this religion - this is the knowledge Leon knew before he crossed over to Newbis.
The various tribes of Newbis also had primitive periods, and must have had similar religions. And now that he knew Newbis had experienced the destruction of the world and the rebirth of civilization, it was normal to see shamans now.
It's just that shamans in most places have either begun to integrate into the modern world order dominated by guilds, or have not retained much ancient knowledge. Only shamans in one place and some areas influenced by it can communicate with the spirits.
Of course, that place was the Land of All Spirits where Leon had been before, and it was the place that led him to break through the shackles on the path of a sorcerer.
However, the people of the Land of Ten Thousand Spirits would never set foot out of there. The shaman in front of him must not be from there. He must be from a tribe that worships the Land of Ten Thousand Spirits as a holy place.
"Hello, I want this."
Li Ang placed the bark in front of the shop owner.
The old shaman's originally calm eyes became increasingly restless as he approached, and finally even a sense of fear arose.
He stared at Leon's left arm, opened his mouth as if to shout, but was seized by panic and became speechless for a moment.
Did this person sense the power of the devil?
Leon could see the weirdness of the blood-red devil, so it was not surprising that other people with the ability to observe spirits could see it too.
He quickly raised his normal right hand and drew a spell pattern.
This spell pattern is relatively complex, including swirling water patterns, diagonal tree patterns, dotted air patterns and dense earth patterns. These patterns together weave together the shaman's understanding of the universe - the trees in the ocean run through the sky and the earth, connecting the mortal world and the otherworldly world, and all living things are nurtured by the soil and air.
This rune itself cannot produce any powerful spells. The process of learning to draw it is the inheritance of the Land of All Spirits and the process of practicing spiritual mastery.
The old shaman's eyes gradually changed from horror to surprise, and then he looked at Li Ang in disbelief.
