Chapter 1,198 Arriving at the City in the Sky Again
He said he wanted to go to the Ebalut Empire for an inspection, but when he passed the teleportation array of the Flame Conclave, Thane thought about it, and in order to save money, he went to the Sky City first.
The City in the Sky is a holy place for spellcasters in the wizarding world. The cost of traveling to the teleportation array here is greatly subsidized for magicians.
In addition, the Sky City is not far from the Yili Knights Alliance and the Ebalut Empire.
With Thane's current distance and flying speed, even if he flies directly from here to the Ebalut Empire, it won't take him too long. .??.
And coming to Sky City after being promoted to level 4 is a completely different experience than when I first came to Sky City.
Here in the Sky City, the role of magic coins has been reduced to a minimum.
Instead, a more hard currency is arcane points.
Thain's arcane points had reached rock bottom when he left the Sky City last time.
During this visit, Thain also wanted to upgrade his arcanist level.
…
Coming to the City in the Sky again, the majestic floating city in front of Thain still represents the most advanced elemental secrets in the wizarding world.
At this time, Thane observed this giant city hovering high in the sky from the perspective of a fourth-level creature. The pictures he saw were blue data flow maps from bottom to top.
The rules and secrets contained in the Sky City are something that even a fourth-level creature like Thain cannot figure out.
It was also when Thain was stunned that many magicians walked out of the surrounding magic teleportation array one after another.
At this time, Thane was still wearing his phaseless mask.
With this mask as a cover, Thain's fourth-level life aura was not exposed.
In fact, the Sky City has special areas specifically divided into special areas for magicians above level 4 and magicians below level 4.
Even below level four, there are academic areas that are divided into level one, level two, level three, and demigod level power.
After arriving at the Sky City, Thane did not go straight to the level 4 or above spellcasting area that he had never been to before. Instead, he went to see his old friends first.
The old man Piton whom Thane met in Sky City is not dead.
He indeed confirmed the correctness of the Arcanist's Law!
After absorbing and integrating some of the mechanics' mysteries of the City of Steel, Old Man Piton was successfully promoted to level three and enjoyed a lifespan of ten thousand years.
The theoretical lifespan of a first-level magician in the Wizarding World is one thousand years, a second-level magician is three thousand years, and a third-level magician is ten thousand years.
There is no fixed value for the lifespan of spellcasters above level four.
Some of the laws are quite special and the maintenance is particularly good. Even if they live for hundreds of thousands of years, it is not an exaggeration.
But some creatures of level four or above may live for tens of thousands of years before becoming old.
Ten thousand years is an era.
As Thane advances to level four, he must gradually get used to using epochs as the unit of time.
Generally speaking, as long as you live for a few epochs, you can be called "old guy" or "old monster".
Thain's mentor, Lu Lianman, is only 10,000 years old this year and is considered an extremely young master of the Holy Tower.
Old Man Piton, who mastered some of the mysteries of mechanics, changed nearly one-third of his body into a mechanical body.
This is the price that Old Man Piton must bear to advance to the third level.
Looking at Old Man Piton's robotic arm and his healthier complexion than before.
It seems that the old man is quite satisfied with his new look.
"I'm still wondering, you brat, why don't you come to the Sky City to see me?"
"I thought you had perished in some plane war!" In the heavy industry laboratory filled with the smell of machine oil, old man Piton said while puffing on a cigar.
Old man Piton, who has been promoted to the third level, can now be regarded as a workshop leader in this heavy industry laboratory with his third-level arcanist title and outstanding alchemy and mechanical mysteries.
The heavy industry laboratory where old man Piton works is a large laboratory established by a fifth-level alchemist master.
The main output direction of this heavy industry laboratory is to develop a new generation of large-scale warfare platforms and to customize space fortresses and other equipment for the top powerhouses in the wizarding world.
With Thain's current net worth, he can't even afford an ordinary model of a standard space fortress, and of course it's impossible to customize it privately.
This time he came to see Old Man Piton. In addition to reminiscing about old times and meeting old friends, he also wanted to ask Old Man Piton to once again build some top-notch model golems for Yuli.
Old Man Piton, who was only at the second level of strength at the beginning, was able to create a top-notch demon doll for Yuli that could rival a demigod with his outstanding alchemical wisdom.
Old Man Piton's skills should be stronger now, and with Thain having enough raw materials on hand, it shouldn't be difficult to make a few more constructed golems of the same level as the Flame.
In terms of investment costs, the cost of making Yuri's golem is much more cost-effective than Thain's direct purchase of a demigod-level slave.
"It hasn't been too long since the last time I made the golem for you. Is it already damaged?" Piton squinted at Thain and asked.
"Well, I have experienced several fierce battles."
"You must make a few more for me this time. The price is negotiable and I won't treat you badly." Thain nodded.
Piton smacked his cigar, exhaled a puff of blue smoke, and said, "I will definitely not be polite to you kid. You were so rich back then, and you are definitely no different now."
"Including the mask on your face... tsk tsk, it seems to be a pretty high-end prop?" Piton said with interest.
The research directions of Thain and Piton in the field of alchemy are generally very different.
Thain is good at making magic weapons and equipment suitable for individuals, while Old Man Piton is better at making large-scale equipment or magic cannons.
Faced with Old Man Piton's words, Thain chuckled and said, "My mask is a world-class secret treasure. Even I have been promoted to level four."
Old man Piton had an expression on his face that said he would listen to you.
He did not refute Thain, but simply said, "The parameter design for constructing the golem will be the same as last time. I can give you some more private goods this time."
"How many do you want, please pay me the deposit first." Old Man Piton said as he unscrewed the butt of the cigar.
When it comes to serious business, the old man will become very serious.
Thain did not live up to Old Man Piton's expectations and directly left him 300,000 magic coins.
Such a large sum of magic coins is enough for Old Man Piton to build four top-notch semi-god-level golems for Yuli.
With Yuri's current ability, she simply cannot control four demigod-level demon dolls, and both of them are a bit reluctant.
Thain's idea is to buy it first and keep it in reserve, so that when it is worn out, it can be replaced.
Old man Piton was very satisfied with Thain's grandeur.
It was said to be a deposit, but Thain paid almost the entire amount, which also showed his trust in old man Piton.
"You boy, you are still so rich!" Old Man Piton sighed.
"By the way, after a while, I would like to ask you to go out to the mountain. There is a magic device, and I need your help to analyze it," Thain said.
He was referring to the silver demon doll that his mentor Lu Lianman had promised to give him.
The true combat power of that demon doll is comparable to level four.
It’s just that the damage is unknown, and someone needs to be asked to analyze it. It’s best to change it into a model suitable for Yuli’s use.
Old man Piton didn't refuse. Due to Thain's temper and generous spending, a special business trip for this purpose was nothing.
After communicating with Old Man Piton for a while, Thain left the heavy industry laboratory and walked outside.
After several constructed golems are made, they will be sent directly to the Holy Tower of Origin of Blue, where Thainliu's address is.
After leaving the heavy industry laboratory, Thain looked at the direction and this time walked straight towards a specific area of the Sky City that was open to creatures above level four.
At this time, a woman in a white dress happened to pass by Thain.
The imperial meeting in Sky City just ended not long ago.
Thain didn't pay attention to the passers-by beside him, but the female magician in the white dress seemed to stop and look at Thain for a moment, who was wearing a formless mask.
