Chapter 1293: Unrestrained Robbery (Part 2)

This was a grade-11 Dissolution Spell that was originally meant for mages to deal with a powerful True Might at close range. Saleen throwing it at the peak of the warehouse was purely wasteful.

However, without a grade-11 magic spell, this warehouse would really be difficult to open up. Saleen did not have the time to go and analyze this magic lock. Alchemy City’s magic locks would definitely be grade-11. If they were to calculate things by the book, Saleen alone would still have to spend a few hours on it. A few hours’ time would probably be sufficient for Alchemy City to summon even a grade-13 creature.

Alchemy City was not like the forces of some small nobility. There were more than 10,000 mages here. In Alchemy City, those below grade-4 were not considered mages, and only those who surpassed grade 4 would be honored with that title.

The actual number of mages in Alchemy City was estimated to be between 800,000 to 1,000,000.

With such a large number of mages, the talents amidst them would not be small in number either. Under these circumstances where the city was about to be destroyed, it was very normal for any strange and unusual skills to be demonstrated.

Saleen did not come for a fight to the death. He wanted to take advantage of the chaos within Alchemy City to snatch away the items that he needed.

What was the best item in Alchemy City? It was the ancient relic.

Saleen’s gains from searching the temples himself were undoubtedly plentiful, but the items left behind by the Four Great Dynasties would indeed be the greatest spoils. Apart from the Tanggulasi Kingdom, because of the Holy See’s control most people, no matter if they knew that there was an ancient relic, would not go and excavate it.

Selling such information to Alchemy City would be able to fetch a decent price. Alchemy City would then organize their forces to go and relocate the entire ancient monument.

Hence, within Alchemy City’s warehouse, only such an item would be able to attract Saleen.

His Floating City was still incomplete. If he were able to find other fragments of Sky City, even if everything else was given to the Grand Duke, it would not matter.

The grade-11 Dissolution Spell dissolved the peak of the magic warehouse up to a depth of about 8 meters. No matter how sturdy the magic material was, it had no way to resist Saleen’s corrosion because of how ancient it was.

If Alchemy City had elementite, perhaps this result would not have arisen either.

The powerful Dissolution Spell stopped its work. Saleen saw that the peak of the warehouse still had its mezzanine. Within the mezzanine, there was a layer of magic array drawn with wrought gold. This caused the grade-11 Dissolution spell to lose its function as well.

This type of magic array was connected to the earth’s power and was rich in the earth element. Even Sika would not be able to use the metal totem pole to smash it.

Above Saleen’s Thunder Dragon Blaster, a silver-colored ball of lightning immediately flew out and sunk into the magic array. The points of the magic array were invaded by Saleen’s ball of lightning and melted away in an instant.

This was not just the power of high temperatures, but also the suppression of rules.

The one who had drawn this magic array was a grade-10 mage trainer. They possessed territorial power and had used exceptionally high-grade magic materials, yet the magic array could not defend against Saleen’s ball of lightning. After Saleen had found the elemental points, he could easily destroy this magic array.

Another grade-11 Dissolution spell was used. This time, the magic warehouse’s peak was smoothly dissolved.

The thickness of the whole warehouse peak exceeded 20 meters. It had been entirely refined with magic materials. The mezzanine in the middle was able to nullify even a grade-13 magic attack and resist it three times at least.

All of these preparations had been completely disintegrated in front of the Lightning Rules.

Saleen leaped into a gigantic warehouse. The warehouse was divided into three floors. The items placed inside were mostly magic materials. There were no complete pieces of equipment. There were also crates and crates of magic nuclei, which were all labeled with their grades, sizes, purity, and the creatures they originated from, as well as their hunting time.

Saleen summoned the lightning puppets to help him collect everything within the three floors of this large warehouse. Then, he used the fastest method to move all of them to the bottom floor of the warehouse.

At the bottom floor, Saleen directly used the lightning icicles to pierce a hole that was 100 meters deep into the ground. Then he sent the second silver-colored ball of lightning into it.

After the ball of lightning had entered, it quickly disintegrated the mezzanine the lightning icicle had not been able to pierce. Below the mezzanine, there was still another one.

Yet Saleen did not know that these actions of his had already caused the Elemental Hand to feel frightened.

Although the warehouse did not have any defenses, even a grade-10 mage trainer would not be able to invade it. Such warehouses were numerous in Alchemy City and were all shared by the Elemental Hand. The nine great mages did not trust one another. An item of the highest grade such as this could not be concealed within one’s personal space; hence, it had been arranged within the warehouse whose defenses were strong enough to make one feel anxious.

Now the warehouse’s upper floor had been pierced open. This did not matter as the upper floor was originally a disguise. However, if the lower floor of the warehouse were pierced open any further, the precious item would be lost.

They were not afraid of losing this item. They were not able to achieve any results when analyzing this item either. It was just that the material was of much too high a grade and was itself valuable enough to be stored and saved up. What the Elemental Hand was frightened about was this consideration: what kind of person would be able to swiftly pierce through the mezzanine of the warehouse and directly enter its bottom part?

Saleen continued to throw down Dissolution Spell scrolls to corrode through the remaining defensive layer and then jumped down.

This warehouse was even larger than the one above. The area it occupied was about one li in size. If not for mages, an ordinary person would have trouble in constructing such a deep warehouse without any beams and poles underground.

Saleen ignited the flames of magic and looked at the items stored within the warehouse. He was somewhat disappointed.

It was an ancient alchemy platform, but all of its mechanisms were different from those of the present and its style was a bit strange. There was no need to mention its material composition; it was entirely made of metal materials that could not be excavated from the current Myers Continent. Alchemy City did not take apart this gigantic alchemy platform. They probably wanted to look for its blueprints and restore it.

If the gigantic alchemy platform could be restored, the pieces of equipment it would create daily would be calculated in terms of thousands or even tens of thousands.

At this time, Nailisi rushed down. Saleen turned and left, calling out, “Place it in the 12 Notes of Purgatory. We can’t use it, so we will not leave it for Alchemy City either!”

Saleen had only taken a hurried glance and had not discovered any secrets deeper underground. He left at once.

None of the nine strongest magical towers of Alchemy City had been destroyed. Once the enemies counterattacked, there would no longer be any hope of making a quick buck.

Saleen made some swift calculations and deduced the position of a similar warehouse. He recalled other places that had similarly been surrounded by magical towers, went up above the ground, and called Sika.

Sika had already destroyed four magical towers and was somewhat exhausted. Seeing that Saleen had come out, she immediately allowed the soul beast to fly down, grab Saleen, and leave. Saleen turned over and sat on the soul beast’s back. He pointed towards a place that lay in the south.

The two wings of the soul beast flapped, and in the blink of an eye, it had gone forward by hundreds of meters. For the first time, Saleen felt that the soul beast’s speed was this frightening. This was also normal. When Sika had been grade-9, the soul beast’s flight speed had already been faster than that of most mages.

No mages would be able to keep up with such speed. Saleen felt as if he was traveling through space. It was just that the distance was too short. At one time, they could only travel for about 500 meters. In less than half a minute’s time, Saleen had already arrived at his destination. He contacted the water puppet in the sky. The water puppet immediately organized the enchanters to release strong magic spells downwards.

They were all variations of the Fireball spell. After the Ice Bombs had atomized, they were once again ignited and finally exploded.

The earth shook, and deeper and deeper pits were blasted in it. They instantly arrived at the position of the warehouse. The magic spells continued to attack. It was only after attacking downwards for dozens of meters that they touched the mezzanine of the warehouse. The mezzanine of the warehouse that had been crafted by Alchemy City was indeed tough. The tens of thousands of enchanters on Floating City had attacked it, yet they were unable to rip it open.

Saleen ordered the attacks to cease. He jumped down and released a black-colored ball of lightning to destroy an elemental point once more. Saleen could only produce eight such balls of lightning per day. He originally wanted to use it to deal with powerful enemies, but now he had no choice but to use it to destroy the defenses of the warehouse. This was a matter about which he felt very unwilling.

After the mezzanine had been destroyed, Saleen took flight and once again allowed the enchanters to attack and thoroughly destroy the ceiling of the upper floor of the warehouse. Creating a grade-11 scroll was extremely difficult, even if the success rate was high.

A grade-10 mage trainer could only create one within a day and would then have to rest. Saleen did not want to make all of Metatrin’s grade-10 mage trainers do this task.

After entering this warehouse, Saleen laughed. In the warehouse, there were the items he most liked – elemental crystals.

These fire elemental crystals would normally only be attainable from the particles found deep inside lava. Saleen had once gained a significant amount of these and had distributed them all out to be used in refining weapons. Otherwise, he could not possibly possess such powerful pieces of equipment to give out to his troops.

His Bug Angel Armors also had fire elemental crystals added to them. At the place where he captured the Great Fire Snake, he had also gained some wealth.

The lightning puppets were once again summoned and frantically looted the place. Then, Saleen used the Dissolution Spell Scroll to corrode the floor below. It was a piece of cake for him. Again, he released a white-colored ball of lightning and pierced through the mezzanine on the lower floor of the warehouse.

There were a few rounds of repetition. Sika, who was looking on, also felt dazzled.

“Find Nailisi and ask her to return. I may not be able to take away the items downstairs myself!”

Sika nodded. At this time, she also knew that time was of essence. Saleen had personally come down to search. Such an opportunity would not come by again. Alchemy City had met with a disaster. After looking back on this incident, they would rebuild the city and create a fortress that was difficult to capture.

Saleen leaped down to the lower floor of the warehouse. This time, he was not disappointed, because he had seen all kinds of fragments that had spilled out in the warehouse. These had indeed originated from Sky City.

In a corner, Saleen discovered three of Sky City’s mechanical cores. The three mechanical cores were in a state of ruin, but that did not matter. He had the Genesis Stock Solution. At most, he would waste about 10 times more materials, but he would still be able to restore them.

Floating City’s flight had always been a problem. After gaining these three mechanical cores, they would more or less be able to solve Floating City’s motorization problem.

Saleen kept the three mechanical cores within his Starline Ring on the spot. In this warehouse, there weren’t any items that were too large in scale and there was no need for Nailisi’s help. He directly used his territorial power to sweep up all of the fragments and keep them within the ring.

In this single story, a countless amount of all kinds of Sky City’s fragments had been accumulated. Adding in the three mechanical cores, Saleen’s actions of attacking Alchemy City had finally paid off. If he had only gained some magic nuclei, Saleen would cry until no more tears were left for him.

Indeed, Alchemy City was extremely wealthy, yet it was incomparably petty! If the nine leaders of the Elemental Hand had not been so guarded against one another, how would such materials have been left to accumulate in this warehouse?
