Divine Flame Crystal

Xingluo was quite shocked when he looked at this huge machine that was several meters high. Although what he made was a few inches taller than this one, the level of precision was incomparable.

There were a large number of densely packed magic array diagrams carved on it. Xingluo looked at them for a long time. The directions of many of the array diagrams were simply fantastic, which made people confused and could not help but admire them secretly.

Brooke glanced at Xingluo's shocked expression, and said with a smug look on his face, "This thing was taken out of the ruins by the Mercenary Guild with great effort. After a hundred years of hard work, it has developed to its current size..."

Brook couldn't stop talking once he started, and Xingluo was naturally happy for him to say more. After all, this was related to his next plans and even the development direction for the next few years.

Xingluo praised and flattered him from time to time, and Brook became more and more excited, saying everything he should and shouldn't say. Afterwards, Brook secretly regretted it a little, but fortunately his superiors told him to try his best to meet Xingluo's requirements, which was not too much.

Whenever Xingluo heard something confusing, he would ask. Under Xingluo's flattery, Brook would tell him everything he knew. Xingluo's understanding of the magic network in this world became more and more extensive. These things were not recorded in the library, as they were all the technology and research within the Mercenary Guild. Of course, when it came to core technology, Brook stopped in time and was not overwhelmed by Xingluo's praise, which made him secretly feel it was a pity.

After this study, he had a general understanding of this magic network. To put it bluntly, this machine was similar to a satellite, but the transmission of magic information was through the fluctuations of the earth veins. This device was a product of the great magic era. Unless he dismantled this thing and studied it, he would not be able to copy it, not even a simplified version.

After understanding the situation, he knew that he would not be able to make something similar in a short period of time. Xingluo was also well aware of Brooke and the Mercenary Guild's overtures. If something really happened to him in the future, it would be difficult for him to refuse it outright.

You will get as much as you give, no matter in which aspect. If you have given but have not received anything, it only means that you have not discovered some of the gains. As a level 6 alchemist, you know this. Moreover, alchemists always regard equivalent exchange as an eternal truth. At least every alchemy book will mention the law of equivalent exchange at the beginning.

After saying goodbye to Brook, Xingluo returned to his alchemy room and worried secretly. He touched the big machine he made and sighed. He really couldn't copy the so-called machine for transmitting earth vein signals. It seemed that he had to go to the ruins after all. It happened that these guys were all bored recently.

Xingluo hadn't slept much in the past few days and fell asleep on the bed next to him. His cultivation continued during his sleep, allowing his strength to grow silently.

I don’t know how long I slept until Xingluo felt refreshed. He took a shower, put on his robe, and finally left the alchemy tower where he had stayed for nearly a month.

Xi was wagging her tail out of boredom when she suddenly saw a fat figure appear in front of her. She was delighted and rushed over. She was relieved to find that Xingluo looked good. "How come you still remember to come out? How come you work so hard and forget to eat and sleep?"

"Haha, no one has paid attention to you these days. Do you miss me?"

"Go to hell! I'm afraid that if you die, our cat royal family will have to find someone else."

Xingluo touched his fat face awkwardly and muttered, "You can die if you say something nice."

Xingluo called the top leaders of the mercenary group together and spoke first: "I have learned a lot from this retreat. I found that some things cannot be learned just by staying in the room, and my strength is also improving slowly."

They naturally agreed with Xingluo's words. Besides, it was very boring to stay here all the time, so they suggested doing quests, hunting monsters, etc.

Seeing that everyone's enthusiasm was raised by him, Xingluo continued, "For us, it won't work without life and death experience, so we should go explore the ruins."

The lively scene froze in an instant. After a long while, Mo was the first to speak, "Which ruins are you going to?"

You Mo spoke, and Tiffany followed suit: "Yes, there are many ruins that are indeed suitable for us to experience."

Xingluo hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "I plan to go to Transylvania."

Everyone frowned slightly when they heard this. This was a place second only to one of the ten forbidden areas. No one spoke, but just looked at Xingluo silently.

Xingluo saw the hesitation in everyone's eyes, took out the magic map, pointed to a place marked with danger in the southwest outer area of ​​the Magic Beast Forest in Luoshen Continent, and said in a deep voice: "There is no safe place in the ruins. Fortune and wealth are sought in danger. If you want to get it, you can't do it without paying anything. There are indeed many space cracks in this place, so at most only great magicians can enter. Any energy above this level will only make it fall into an irretrievable situation and be torn apart by the space storm.

"Have you all forgotten that I am a great magician? And my talent is space magic, which is very dangerous for others, but safer for me than other relics."

Xingluo paused here, looked around, and found that everyone was slightly relieved. Even Mo Lu was the first to speak: "Even so, this place is full of dangers. Be sure to plan carefully before going."

Seeing that Mo, the most difficult person to deal with, agreed, and the others had no objections, they took this opportunity to discuss the plan to enter the ruins. Xingluo secretly breathed a sigh of relief and joined the discussion of the plan to go to Transylvania.

After a morning of discussion, they finally decided on the candidates for this trip. Xingluo would definitely go. Mo originally wanted to go, but Xingluo was afraid that he would be in danger, so she forced him to stay on the grounds that the mercenary group needed someone to manage it.

The knowledgeable Atlantis and the somewhat impulsive Elvin are going to go, and Ying and Tiffany are also going. All of them are now high-level professionals, and it must be safe with him around. He originally wanted the fewer people the better, but in the end, except Mo, all the top executives of Sky City will attend.

Xingluo was also helpless, but he knew that every life and death experience was a test of strength, and everyone was no longer children, so he shouldn't interfere too much.

After the meeting, Mo found Xingluo and said with some dissatisfaction: "They all went, why can't I go?"

Xing Luo looked at Mo, was silent for a long time, sighed, and said solemnly: "The group really needs someone to take charge. I think you have great leadership skills. I am not worthy of the title of group leader..."

Mo looked at Xingluo who had already walked away doubtfully, "Do I really have leadership talent?"

Nowadays, the mercenary group is developing faster and faster, and has purchased several large flying mounts. With so many people this time, they naturally chose a huge two-legged dragon as a means of transportation.

Today, the Flame Hammer has opened branches in many cities, and wealth is accumulating like a snowball. The reason why Xingluo is in a hurry to expand is because he has too much money and has nowhere to spend it. He did not expect that this Flame Hammer shop would be so profitable at first, so in addition to selling and purchasing equipment, he also opened many auction houses. With such huge financial support, it is not a big deal to buy luxury items such as flying mounts.
