Where the Seated Lupin Wolf had attacked earlier, it sent a huge amount of sand flying in the air and Leylin spotted several grains of gold within it.
He reached his hand forward and grasp a handful of gold sand in his hands.
In the middle of the normal grains of sand, several golden grains were mixed in with it. Its weight was also heavier than the others by a large margin.
“Golden sand?”
Leylin looked at the gold which seemed to be alluring and was somewhat speechless.
“Golden Desert, this here is the real Golden Desert!”
“If it was the secular world, it will definitely cause chaos. A pity, however…”
With a look of contempt, Leylin flung the gold sand back onto the ground.
To magicians, only the magic crystals, the ingredients which could stimulate the spiritual force and the various advanced information was considered to be the real currency!
As for the gold belonging the secular world, apart from its uses as an ingredient, it was no different from regular metals.
Moreover, the Golden Desert was situated inside the Great Canyon Margaret, an area forbidden to regular humans. To traverse it also required the employment of the highly expensive Seated Lupin Wolves.
Thinking of the cost of excavation would already frighten the kings in many dukedoms!
Leylin only felt some pity regarding the golden sand, but he very soon regained his composure.
The A.I. Chip’s detection had been activated by him all along as his eyes surveyed the surroundings. In the Golden Desert, one must always be on alert.
The six giant, icy-blue wolves seemed to be six small boats in the Golden Desert as they continuously plodded on.
After the sky gradually darkened, the temperature in the desert also dropped.
At this moment, the Seated Lupin Wolf gave off warmth; their furs also turned back to black, as if storing the heat from day time.
“Today, I shall stand guard during the night!”
After Leylin had built his tent, an official Magus present among them all, said so.
There was a total of 6 in the group. Leylin, Lancey, the old leader, and the huge bloke and two others who remained silent most of the time. The one who spoke was one of these two.
These two Magi had grey robes on at all times, and seldom spoke. Their personality was also extremely antisocial. Up till now, Leylin managed to exchange two sentences with only one of the two.
“We will count on you!” Lancey did not look too good, her face appeared tired as she went into her tent.
During the day, she had used her spiritual force to scan the surroundings for any activity going on. Now, she urgently needed to rest and meditate to recover her spiritual force.
As Leylin had the A.I. Chip to help with his tasks, his mental state was still doing fine. Yet he still put on a false impression of being weary.
“Are you not going to rest awhile?” Leylin appeared in front of one of those official Magi and casually spoke to him.
“I need not rest. I have these. Come out, my little babies!”
The Magus on night duty gave a deep laughter as his pair of arms performed a strange gesture.
Bang Bang Bang A layer of Earth element particles continued to emanate from his body.
The surrounding sand rose up by a layer. After which, it was quickly broken, revealing a dozen yellow slates.
These muddy yellow slates each had a human face on it. Some were young, some were old. They even a pair of slim arms and legs. Just like a gingerbread man.
“Father! We await your commands!” A dozen stone slate people knelt on one knee in front of the Magus on night duty.
“Very well, you all shall guard the night for me. You are in charge of…” The night guard Magus nodded his head and unrestrainedly began giving out orders.
“Sentinel Slates?” Leylin was bewildered.
These creatures were very similar to the Sentinel Slates in the database of the A.I. Chip, yet it seemed like a creature of a higher level.
“It’s a rank 1 Sentinel Slate but they have undergone modifications from me!” The night duty Magus declared proudly.
After becoming an official Magus, magicians will often attempt to modify and improve some rank 1 spells and even the rank 0 spells of acolytes.
Once they were successful, it could absolutely turn into a unique trump card. Or it could be sold in exchange for a large amount of resources.
A pity that these things and finding replacement potions were the same. Unless one was extremely lucky to chance across it, or only after undergoing a vast amount of experiments, would it be possible to see results.
“It’s really quite a remarkable spell!” Several traces of admiration, which was just right, appeared on Leylin’s face, turning the gaze of the spell caster gentler towards him.
“Let’s go! The Sentinel Slates originally have to use of acting as a warning. After my modification, their detection abilities can span a dozen miles…” The Magus on night duty said.
Leylin looked at the Sentinel Slates, which, having received orders, hurriedly ran to the outer area of the camp encirclement, using the sand to conceal their own bodies.
Along with the sand that continuously trickled down, the energy waves of the slate got smaller, finally turning into an untraceable spell. Leylin could not help but approve in silence.
Any Magus would have their own trump card. Once they were disregarded, it would definitely be a painful experience.
Deep in the night, Leylin who was in a light sleep heard an ear-piercing scream.
“Hurry, get up. We have trouble!”
The earlier Magus, who was on guard duty, went into the individual tents and his face showing utter exasperation.
“What happened?” Lancey’s expression was the worst. There were several spots on her body where the robes were not yet arranged, as it revealed her alluring flesh. A pity nobody at the scene bothered to have another look.
Chapter 140 – The Golden Giant
The Golden Giant
“A Golden Giant is in the process of moving towards us!”The Magus on night duty exclaimed hurriedly. “The Sentinel Slate used to alert the others have been completely eaten by it, too!”
“F*ck!”
After hearing these words ’Golden Giant’, Leylin quickly heard the startled oaths of nearby Magi.
The Golden Giant was a type of elemental species. Its power was close to that of a fully converted elemental Magus. On top of that, it has its own unique racial talents. Only a rank 2 Magus had the capabilities to thoroughly kill or banish it.
“Wasn’t it said that the Golden Giants from the Golden Desert are extinct? Furthermore, it appeared conveniently in our way. “
The old leader clenched his jaws in a state of madness. His eyes emitted a green radiance.
“Can we avoid it for the time being?”
Lancey suggested. “The Golden Desert is so huge, he might not be able to find us!”
“I am afraid not!” Leylin was the first to interject. “The Golden Giants have a natural instinct to chase species with high energy levels. The energy propagating from our bodies acts like a lamp in the darkness for the giant’s eyes. The more we move, the more likely the Golden Giant will assault us!”
“If that is the case what should we do?” A look of despair appeared on Lancey’s face. “Unless we have a rank 2 Magus within our party, we will all fail to escape the assault of the Golden Giant….”
There is a large gulf of difference in power level between the official Magi of different rankings
Leylin and his party of six were only slightly stronger than a rank 1 Magus. They would even have difficulties going head on with a semi converted elemental Magus. They had no chance of surviving an encounter with a fully converted elemental Golden Giant.
Semi elemental conversions refer to Magi whose elemental essence conversion has reached a level of 50% and above. At this stage, their increase in magical power due to the elemental essence conversion starts to become very obvious. When faced with budding Warlocks, they held a great advantage.
While Leylin was still an acolyte, he had an encounter with a semi converted storm elemental sprite while on the dirigible. If not for the fact that there was a large gathering of Magi from the different academies, the only outcome would have been death.
In the current predicament, Leylin had to face something far more powerful and dangerous than the semi converted storm elemental sprite.
“Perhaps, we should scatter and escape in different directions…”
The large bloke hesitated for a while before suggesting.
Upon hearing the suggestion, the Magi present entered a state of silence and eyes started flickering nonstop.
“Are you people mad?”
The old geezer interrupted the large bloke in a fit of anger. “If we fled in different directions, can you guarantee that you individuals are lucky enough to escape the assault of the Golden Giant? Furthermore, what will you do after you reach the Kary Vultures’ territory?”
The two sharp questions abruptly brought about a deeper silence.
