"How many people were there? Are you kidding me! Our Second Prince and Prince Isman were among those who died this time! You shouldn't have attacked all the members of the Etra royal family. Our Holy Rise Empire will not let this go!" The gray-robed wizard looked at Mensa with a serious expression and said in a deep voice.
Seeing the gray-robed wizard speak, the white-robed wizard beside him breathed a slight sigh of relief, then said with a face full of anger, "Our seventh princess of the Kingdom of Isen also died in this incident. We will not let this go until we give an explanation!"
"Heh~" Mensa had anticipated their reaction, since this was part of his plan. He chuckled and said with amusement, "You're not going to let this go? We're all wizards, so let's get straight to the point. What do you want?"
Upon hearing Mensa's words, the white-robed wizard glared, about to erupt in anger, but being a wizard after all, reason prevailed in the end. He did not act rashly, but instead glanced at the gray-robed wizard beside him out of the corner of his eye.
He was aware that his Kingdom of Isien alone was not enough to contend with the Terra Empire.
"Thirty percent of the mithril mines within the borders of Bayer, Northern Etra, and Ishen."
"No, I'll only give you five percent at most!"
“Twenty-five percent!” After a pause, the gray-robed wizard continued, “This time, we lost a second prince who was very close to the line of succession and a prince!”
"Ten percent!" Mensa paused for a moment and said, "Your eldest prince is very outstanding and is almost at the fourth rank, but the second prince is just a Grand Knight. Being at the top is useless. He is not the crown prince at all. As for that prince... you can just throw a brick in your capital and you'll hit a prince who only has a title."
"Twenty percent! Even with just a title, he's still a prince! Even without the right of succession, he's still a prince!"
……
The white-robed wizard, who was watching the transaction proceed as if no one else was around, had a grim expression, especially since the items being traded included his own resources!
But faced with the two great empires, he could only remain expressionless...
After all, the two people with Itra blood who died in the Holy Rise Empire were not important figures. From the beginning, their fate was already sealed: either they would leave behind descendants who would live an unremarkable life, or they would come to conquer Itra.
The second prince fared even worse, as his noble status forbade him to have offspring, lest the consequences of an incident like this one be too great.
But they are different!
Their investment is considerable!
The one who died was even his descendant!
What the hell!
……
On the other side, the Lord of Flesh and Blood, who was annihilating the Itra royal family, saw Isaac's figure in the mysterious void as expected. So He accelerated the annihilation while angrily trying to stop Isaac!
Unfortunately, such a massive offering also brought Isaac unprecedented energy in the mysterious void, and the billions of flesh and blood lords were simply unable to stop Isaac's steps to erode His dimension!
Isaac's goal was clear: he only wanted these unwanted dimensions!
The Lord of Billions of Flesh and Blood now has a very clear goal: He only wants to protect his own dimension!
So when He realized He couldn’t stop Isaac’s advance, He even offered Isaac other powers in an attempt to deplete Isaac’s energy in this way.
Unfortunately, Isaac's goal remained steadfast, and he didn't even glance at the powers offered to him!
And so, while the two great empires were secretly clashing outside of Etra, within the Kingdom of Etra, Isaac was also engaged in a breathtaking battle with billions of flesh and blood lords!
There was no way around it; I had to be nervous. After all, if I wasn't careful, all that energy I had painstakingly collected would turn into some useless, useless energy.
Fortunately, thanks to Isaac's skillful micro-management, everything went smoothly.
Meanwhile, the billions of flesh and blood lords who suffered defeat in the battle in the mysterious void are also intensifying their efforts to annihilate the bloodline of the Itra royal family!
In fact, by now, most of the other bloodlines have died, with only the fourth-tier Miracle Knight still putting up a stubborn fight. After all, he is a Miracle Knight, possessing the power called Miracle. Such an existence is quite difficult to kill if it is merely a projection.
Unfortunately, they are difficult to kill, not impossible.
Then, after a while, the old patriarch Etra, who had been controlled by the Terra Empire, was completely devoured by blood-red dimensional magic amidst a chorus of curses...
After fulfilling the requirements of the ritual, the Lord of Billions of Flesh and Blood immediately withdrew his consciousness from the mysterious void and began to absorb the energy of the offering with all his might!
At this moment, He was well aware that there were far too many offerings this time, and the power that was used to pry open the legendary gate was also ridiculously large!
In the mysterious void, He could not stop Isaac's steps. Now, He had only one option: to completely absorb the offering and end the ritual!
Unfortunately, He ultimately miscalculated...
Even after realizing that the Lord of Billions of Flesh and Blood had given up resisting, Isaac still decisively withdrew from the mysterious void when the success rate dropped to around 500%, and ended the ritual directly.
The billions of flesh and blood lords who returned to the flesh and blood dimension with a pile of sacrifices were completely dumbfounded...
What are you doing?
Are you trying to humiliate me?
Hey!
Chapter 192 Is he really a mad witch?
Inside the room at Roton Fortress, as the ritual ended, the malevolent red light gradually dimmed, and Isaac's connection with his own dimension was restored. With a flick of his right hand, a chaotic energy fruit appeared in Isaac's hand—the Fruit of Dimensions!
The Fruit of Dimensions is the fruit formed from the primordial power of a dimension when it grows to a certain extent. It has many uses, the simplest of which is to be eaten.
After consuming it, one can significantly increase their magic power, and there is also a certain probability of obtaining a dimensional seed!
What is a certain probability?
0.6 percent!
Therefore, very few people would consume it directly. For a normal wizard, it is the most advanced magical ingredient, which can be used to concoct many excellent potions. Although this would eliminate the possibility of obtaining the Dimensional Seed, since this possibility is negligible, it doesn't matter if it is removed.
For the Mad Witch, the Dimensional Seed can be used as a universal material to trade with the Outer Gods, and it will never fail.
Of course, this only applies to normal transactions; it has no effect on Isaac's "I Pick Up" strategy.
In addition, it is also a good choice to use it to make magical items, and the Dimensional Fruit is compatible with a wide variety of magical attributes, making it extremely suitable for whatever you are making.
However, for Isaac, there was only one option for this item—to sell it.
Although he can brew potions, he doesn't have the recipes, and his experience in this field is very limited. He may be quite skilled at brewing potions, but that's about it. For him, a top-tier potion ingredient like the Dimensional Fruit would be a huge waste.
The same applies to the crafting of magical equipment, which is even worse than potion making. At least Isaac had a decent potion-making technique to offer.
As for sales channels...
Isaac also had two options: one was the Flesh and Blood Cult, which possessed a dimension and could produce dimensional fruits, so it did not lack ways to utilize them, and it also had a large number of people within its ranks.
After all, the condensation of the Dimensional Fruit requires the consumption of Dimensional Origin. Under normal circumstances, the Dimensional Fruit is condensed by the naturally dissipated Dimensional Origin, which takes a long time. Trying to condense it in advance will cause great damage to the dimension.
Therefore, even within the sect, the Fruit of Dimensions is a relatively precious magical resource.
There is another channel that is even more popular than cults: the Mad Witch Society!
It was full of mad witches, and they were different from the normal mad witches like Isaac. They had normal transactions with the Outer Gods, and the Fruit of Dimensions was of great significance and value to them!
Furthermore, the annual Mad Witches' Gathering is about to begin, which will be a good opportunity to make a move.
However, there's no rush; we need to observe further. He had already learned from Mensa that one of the high wizards overseeing the war in Etra was from the Flesh and Blood Cult, and had spoken highly of him beforehand.
Although Isaac is a mad witch and appears to outsiders as an absolute lunatic, he is actually quite normal at present. He is always willing to avenge wrongs and repay kindness.
It's normal to prioritize a religious sect at a time like this, since he's not exactly short of money right now.
After examining the Dimensional Fruit for a while, Isaac put it into his dimensional world, placing it next to another Dimensional Fruit that was condensing.
Yes, he has two Dimensional Fruits. Although the other one is not yet ripe, it's okay. It will ripen after he visits the Lord of Billions of Flesh and Blood a few more times.
The benefits that this ceremony brought to Isaac went far beyond the Fruit of Dimensions; the Fruit of Dimensions was merely a byproduct of dimensional growth.
The first thing to be affected is the infinite magic power, which has now lasted for an hour. It's no exaggeration to say that this is incredibly powerful!
The only downside is that the casting time for privileged spells is too long when they are cast normally, so even with infinite mana, Isaac can only use the seven privileged spell slots in actual combat.
Of course, this is not a problem. If there is no way to adapt to infinite magic, then we will research a way to adapt to it. Wizards have always fought with their brains.
The increased duration of infinite magic also means that Isaac's connection with the dimension is closer. He can now open the passage to the dimensional world at any time, which means that the plan to build a floating city in the dimensional world can now be carried out!
Compared to that, carrying a huge amount of space with you is nothing.
Finally, there's Isaac's dimension, which is starting to resemble a dimension in some ways.
It's a bit awkward, but that's the truth. Isaac's previous dimensional world, although it was called a dimensional world, could only be considered a dimensional fragment, not a true dimension.
A true dimension must possess at least four concepts: infinity, uniqueness, parallelism, and profundity.
The concept of "infinite" refers to both space and magic. Of course, it doesn't mean Isaac has infinite magic, but rather that the magic within a dimension is infinite. "Unique" is easy to understand; it means that there is only one dimension, possessing unique characteristics. This is generally the most difficult to achieve because it requires complete mastery of at least one authority!
Authority is superior to power.
The concept of "parallelism" is relatively common. Isaac doesn't need to worry about this concept. He just needs to keep developing the dimensions. When the power of the dimensions is strong enough, it will spontaneously generate a repulsive force against the real world, thus becoming completely parallel to the real world and not interfering with it.
Only the Lord of Dimensions will be able to connect reality with dimensions at that time. Only then can dimensions be truly used for combat. Otherwise, they could easily be broken into by wizards skilled in spatial powers and wreak havoc.
Of the four concepts, the most unique is the concept of "profound". This concept... how to put it, is somewhat complex. Like "parallel", it also naturally arose with the increasing power of dimensions.
If parallelism is the defense mechanism of dimensions, then profundity is the attack mechanism of dimensions.
This concept endows the dimensional world with many unique and powerful forces. For example, the erosive effect of dimensional magic comes from the "profound." In addition, this concept has a certain degree of diversity.
【Profound】 can be used to enhance the erosive power of magic, or to create special life forms unique to a dimension.
Especially the latter!
It's important to understand that dimensions are different from the real world. They are not as diverse and colorful. Even if matter is generated within them, it will be very simple. For example, in the dimension of billions of flesh and blood lords, the only matter that can be generated is flesh and blood, and the rest is endless energy.
In such a world, it is extremely difficult for life to be born. Even energy life cannot be created from a single type of energy.
But the concept of "profound" is that it can forcefully give birth to life in such a harsh environment!
What Isaac's dimensional world gave birth to this time is a part of the four concepts of [profound] and [infinite], with [infinite] accounting for a larger proportion.
Isaac's current dimensional world has no boundaries. If he keeps flying in one direction, he will not return to the starting point, nor will he reach the end.
Of course, this is not a complete "infinity". Only the space is infinite, while the energy contained within is still finite. In order to maintain the energy concentration, Isaac has limited the energy to a certain range, and the usable space in the future will be roughly limited to this.
It's big, but it's not very useful.
For Isaac personally, the greatest help was undoubtedly the "Profound." While this concept did not give birth to new life for him, it endowed him with the ultimate destructive power of energy within the dimensional world!
That is to say...
Isaac flipped his hand, and a deep purple energy surged into his palm. Although the energy was small, Isaac could feel the terrifying destructive power contained within it!
If he had possessed this magic when he fought King Itra, he would have won much more easily!
Looking at the magic in his hand, Isaac narrowed his eyes. With this, his combat power should increase even further. The focus of his research on privileged magic should be on diversity, so as to enrich his own methods as much as possible.
Although three of the seven spell slots are pre-stored, there are still four that can be used flexibly. The more privileged spells you have, the more tactical options you have.
After all, he is currently limited by his level and can no longer delve deeper into the realm of privileged magic, so he can only expand its breadth.
