Transcending the Magic Era: The Supreme Female Archmage

Upon hearing that the new magical artifact had been roughly developed, a hint of excitement flashed in Puyang Yucheng's eyes.

"That's wonderful! You might not know, but a massive beast tide has broken out in the Third War Zone. The timing of your magical artifact's appearance is perfect; it can be put to use immediately! How long until it's fully completed?"

Upon hearing the news of a massive beast tide approaching, Chu Qiuchi and the others' expressions changed drastically, their eyes filled with deep worry.

Chu Qiuchi spoke first, his voice tinged with urgency, "It should be completed in about five or six days. Dean, what's the situation in the Third War Zone? Do we need to go there immediately to provide support?"

Puyang Yucheng's expression was extremely solemn as he said in a deep voice, "The current situation is far from optimistic. This beast tide is the largest in recent years. What's even more troublesome is that, apart from the Third War Zone, none of the other war zones have been affected by the beast tide. In other words, only the Third War Zone is currently bearing the brunt of this terrifying beast tide."

After pausing briefly to catch his breath, Puyang Yucheng continued, "Just recently, I received a message from your commander. Because he had been unable to contact you, he had no choice but to inform me of this matter, asking me to check on the situation and, incidentally, to inform you to go directly to the Third War Zone for support."

At this point, Puyang Yucheng pondered for a moment, "However, I think that your research on this magical artifact is almost complete. If we can wait until it is fully completed and put into use, its effect will definitely be much more effective than if you rush to provide support. Therefore, we might as well wait a few days until the artifact is successfully developed before heading to the Third War Zone."

The group exchanged glances, their gazes resolute. Chu Qiuchi spoke first, “No problem, we will do our utmost and race against time to perfect this magical artifact. However, there is still a problem. This artifact will use an extremely special metal—Ink Condensed Tungsten Stone. To be honest, we have only seen this ore at auctions so far; we haven't found it for sale anywhere else. It is an indispensable key material for the large-scale refining of this artifact.”

Upon hearing this, Puyang Yucheng waved his hand and reassured him, "You need not worry about this. If the magical artifacts you develop can truly effectively defend against mental attacks, then the Empire will certainly do everything possible to ensure the supply of materials. As far as I know, this rare mineral can be found in the area where the Earth Spirit Clan resides. At that time, let His Majesty take care of this matter."

Upon hearing this, Chu Qiuchi smiled slightly and nodded gently, "Alright, it's good that you understand! Then let's focus on perfecting the magic artifact now."

Puyang Yucheng looked at the group with a gratified expression and said slowly, "Not bad, indeed heroes have emerged from among the young since ancient times! Seeing your positive, enterprising, and responsible attitude, this old man is very pleased. Then I won't bother you any longer. As for Commander Jimo, you don't need to worry, I will explain the matter to him myself."

After speaking, Puyang Yucheng turned and left without hesitation, leaving Chu Qiuchi and the others to continue focusing on their work. Especially after hearing the news of the beast tide, a heavy weight seemed to be pressing on their hearts.

They all knew very well that they had to be fully prepared this time in order to better cope with any crises that might arise on the battlefield.
