Volume 4: The Cataclysm Chapter 186 Phantom Defense
From the Alchemy Box's crying, Marvin finally understood some of the ins and outs of the story.
The Alchemy Box itself is an extremely magical alchemical item.
Because it has its own will!
From this point of view, its creator, the unknown alchemist who now lives in the White River Valley and eats free meals, can be said to be the master of alchemy.
The name of the magic box is Wilson because the turkey man's name is Will.
Will regards Wilson Box as his proudest work and even treats it as his own son.
Not sure if it was a coincidence or some other factor, but Marvin learned from Wilson that the powerful alchemist who had lost his memory for unknown reasons was also a strong man who survived the Third Age.
The Third Age, what a distant era, and yet what a dazzling era!
Although the glory of wizards illuminated the entire Fourth Age, even a thousand years later, every corner of Fenan's world was still filled with the halo left by the powerful men of the Third Age.
That era was truly full of shining stars, and Master Alchemist Will was one of them.
According to the Magic Box, in that era, Will was known as the King of Alchemy. He was regarded by everyone as a powerful man who could be deified artificially with his understanding of alchemy.
But after a strange disaster, everything disappeared in the dust of history.
The magic box Wilson was passed down, and after several changes, it unfortunately fell into the hands of the Snake Witch.
The only consolation was that although the Snake Witch was also a master-level alchemist, she knew nothing about the alchemy box.
She didn't even know that the Alchemy Box had a will of its own.
The reason why she arranged the cabin to look like a secret room was because she saw in a book introducing alchemical boxes that it was written that alchemical boxes hated sunlight and wind because sunlight and wind would make many alchemical rituals ineffective.
The alchemy box was something that every alchemist possessed in the era when alchemy was more developed.
Without a doubt, Magic Box Wilson is the pinnacle of them all.
Despite being tormented by the snake witch for so many years, it still did not give up hope of escaping.
Just now, it felt the death of the snake witch, so it felt that the best time for it to escape had come.
It couldn't open the door of the cabin by itself, so it took advantage of Marvin's inattention and desperately cast a blindness spell in an attempt to escape.
Unfortunately, Marvin's super agility was beyond its imagination, and in the end, the little guy fell into Marvin's hands.
However, after learning that Will himself was in the White River Valley, the Magic Box changed its mind.
It was eager to get back to Will.
After Marvin promised that he would not "abuse" it like the snake witch, the magic box Will temporarily agreed to follow Marvin.
Although the Alchemy Box is very powerful, after being tormented by the Snake Witch for so many years, its power has actually become very weak.
The previous raid on Marvin and the escape were the last of its strength.
So after the two sides reached an agreement, Marvin put it into the origami space and let it fall into a sleep temporarily.
Once he returns to the White River Valley, he will bring the magic box to the nameless alchemist.
If that guy is really the famous super alchemist from the Third Age, the White River Valley will make a fortune.
…
After the episode about the Alchemy Box, Marvin stopped struggling and went straight to the point.
The main reason he came to the Rotten Mushroom Swamp this time was because of the Snake Witch's spell.
Dark phantoms once invaded in ancient times. At that time, people invented a spell called phantom defense.
This spell has been lost in Fenan and can only be found in two places.
The first place is the final headquarters of the Southern Wizard Alliance - the floating city of Exomia hidden in the mountains of the First Mountain Range. Unfortunately, Exomia is now probably the most dangerous place .
After the catastrophe, it was a question of how many wizards could survive in Exomia. Although Exomia had extremely high authority, so that only the highest-level wizards in the entire Southern Wizard Alliance could access it, there were still a large number of ordinary wizards living there.
After the catastrophe, Exomia should have directly activated the early warning program and entered a self-closing state. Even the Dark Phoenix could not affect the wizards inside.
Of course, legendary wizards will not be affected by the chaotic magic, but when everyone around them turns into monsters, this is probably a huge blow to the legendary wizards of Esomia in the floating city.
God knows what Exomia - at least according to the information revealed in the previous life, the Exomia floating city should appear in the form of a copy. This means that the floating city should be full of monsters.
Although Marvin is confident, he has no intention of challenging the true strength of the Southern Wizarding Union.
The second place is naturally the snake witch’s cabin.
Although this place is equally dangerous, it is much simpler in comparison.
The Snake Witch usually places the scrolls she creates in the library next to the laboratory, along with some of her treasured books.
Marvin entered the library area and saw rows of old books on the bookshelves.
There are many of them, all of which are rare copies left over from the Tertiary Period.
Of course, Marvin also has a lot of books in his collection, all of which were found in the Dragon Library, but those books are mostly related to the dragon clan, not human books.
Marvin was equally rude about these books and started buying them directly!
Knowledge is power!
At least that's the case with magic books.
Marvin thought that after this incident was over and he returned to the White River Valley, it would be time to build a new library.
He has obtained a large number of books from the temple of the Five-Colored Dragon God, the Dragon Library, and the Snake Witch's hut. These books are extremely important resources for wizards, alchemists, or other spellcasters.
For the Baihe Valley, it is also a symbol of slowly building up its foundation.
…
After clearing out the entire book section, Marvin finally got the book called "The Origin and Defense of Dark Phantoms" as he wished.
The book was written in the ancient common language, and judging from the text, it should be the prototype of the common language.
By reading this book, powerful spellcasters can comprehend the dark ghost defense technique. Marvin tried it and found that he was not a spellcaster. He could not understand what was said in it at all...
He could only give up at that moment.
But there was an unexpected surprise. He found six parchment scrolls at the last page of the book.
These parchment scrolls are very old, dating back at least four eras, but they have survived undamaged until now, which is a miracle.
These scrolls contain magic that is not very powerful, but very targeted.
These are all genuine [Phantom Defense] scrolls!
