Chapter 237: Continuous Simulation
🕑 Added 2024-09-24 07:26:39 +0000 UTCThe appearance of the two spirits was basically confirmed!
Unfortunately, in the simulation, I couldn't capture either of them.
"But the good news is that if that earth-element knight can capture the Vibration Spirit, it means I can too!" Rhett's eyes gleamed with excitement.
Moreover, this Vibration Spirit was the most unique spirit Rhett had ever encountered. It wasn't an elemental spirit, yet it could cause terrifying destructive power.
This power of "vibration" could even affect space itself, making it the most formidable spirit Rhett had ever heard of!
Rhett believed that the "Vibration" mystery within the earth element could be unlocked with the help of this spirit...
Thinking about this, Rhett's heart burned with anticipation. The Vibration Spirit seemed tailor-made for him—or rather, for any earth-element transcendent!
"Since I now know how that knight captured the spirit, I just need to replicate the process..." Rhett thought to himself.
But then he started to worry about a few things. Although he was a Tier 6 Magus, his body wasn't as strong as that of a Tier 3 knight, and their characteristics differed. If three bolts of lightning struck him, would he survive?
"Hmm, it's risky. If those three bolts of lightning could knock out and severely injure a Tier 3 knight, they might kill me on the spot," Rhett frowned.
Certainly, he could use magic to easily deflect the lightning, but his goal was to capture the spirit. If the lightning didn't strike his body, he feared it might hinder the capture process.
"I'll have to try using a few Firebath Potions. If I hold one in my mouth, maybe it can act as a substitute," Rhett decided. Firebath Potions were mid-grade healing potions, far more potent than solid potions.
As for the dark-element spirit, Rhett was at a loss.
Fortunately, the last simulation provided some clues that could help him plan better for the next one.
"Mount Jinlei, huh?"
He decided to stake out the location and see if he could find the person who captured the spirit and learn the method directly from them.
With his plan in mind, Rhett reopened the system.
【Do you want to initiate a text-based simulation? Each simulation of one year will consume 5 Fate Points.】
"Yes, simulate for one year!"
【Year 478 of the Gillon Calendar, March 2nd: Since Dah Eagle City and the royal city were not far apart, you headed to the royal city. That evening, Hogus, learning of your arrival through his informants, immediately sent someone to contact you.】
【May 29th: You were searching in the sea chart coordinates (39, 03) when you heard a deafening roar and saw a brilliant bolt of lightning split the sky, turning night into day. Cautiously, you observed the scene, looking for the spirit. As the air trembled violently, you felt a wave of dizziness. You rode Firebird into the sky, heading toward the center of the disturbance, carefully tracing the paths of multiple lightning strikes.】
【With sharp eyes and strong mental powers, you noticed a space with the most intense fluctuations, just as three bolts of lightning converged there. You quickly swallowed two bottles of Firebath Potion, leaped off Firebird's back, and used wind elements to slow your descent. The next moment, four bolts of lightning struck your head. You were stunned, and the violent energy destroyed your body. Fortunately, the Firebath Potions worked wonders, constantly restoring your vitality.】
【When you regained consciousness, you found the surroundings calm again, but there was no sign that a spirit had bonded with you. Realizing your efforts were in vain, you felt greatly disappointed!】
【June 2nd: Unwilling to give up, you continued searching for traces of the spirit in the Storm Sea and eventually arrived at Water Shadow Island to wait.】
【June 7th: After a short stay on the island, you heard a loud rumble, the sky darkened, and massive waves surged across the sea. A volcanic eruption sent pillars of fire into the sky, and the ground split open with terrifying cracks. You quickly mounted Firebird and left, observing the scene from above.】
【Half an hour later, the island was overwhelmed, with most people drifting in the sea, becoming food for sea beasts. Soon, over a hundred lives were lost. Shortly after, three thick bolts of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting a Tier 3 knight on the water's surface.】
【When the lightning struck, the spatial disturbance peaked. The knight and a Tier 3 Tremor Turtle he was fighting fell unconscious. Moments later, a faint, indescribable transparent shadow appeared in the air and entered the knight's body. As the shadow vanished, the lightning, earthquakes, and air disturbances receded like a tide, quickly fading. This time, as you looked at the dead Tremor Turtle, you began to understand something.】
【Without further delay, you left the Storm Sea and set off for the Kingdom of Greyland.】
【September 27th: After three months of travel, you arrived at the Shadowy Mountains in the Kingdom of Greyland. You immediately began searching for all the dark-element mages in the mountains.】
【September 29th: Three Tier 6 Earth Knights ambushed you in the mountains, but you defeated them all in a one-on-three battle.】
【October 13th: While searching the mountains, you encountered a Tier 7 Frenzied Rock Bear. After exhausting all your resources and enduring half a day's battle, you managed to drive it away.】
【November 4th: While meditating, you sensed a strange energy trying to invade your mind. You instinctively used your mental power to resist, and with the help of the Mysticism of Dissipation and Convergence, you drove it away.】
【Year 439 of the Gillon Calendar, January 10th: You arrived at Mount Jinlei early and began a covert stakeout.】
【January 11th: Two Tier 2 knights passed by, catching your attention. You remained hidden, not alerting them. Soon after, you sensed the approach of a Tier 3 dark-element mage. Shortly after, two faint waves of dark elemental energy spread through the air, and the two knights collapsed, their expressions twisted in struggle as they quickly lost their lives. The Tier 3 mage seemed to prepare to deal with the bodies but was startled by a nearby group of Tier 3 knights, causing them to flee in haste.】
【At that moment, you revealed yourself, swiftly capturing the Tier 3 mage and scaring off the approaching knights. The dark-element mage was visibly panicked at your appearance, and after being subdued, they pleaded for mercy. Through interrogation, they confessed the information and the process of capturing the spirit. You learned that on December 17th, after their partner was killed by a beast, they were overwhelmed with grief and fainted during the battle. When they awoke, the beast was gone, and they had inexplicably bonded with a spirit.】
【You learned the mage's name was Sina and extracted information about the spirit's abilities. This dark-element spirit could bless dark-element magical plants and beasts, and it also possessed a "Darkness Descends" ability, which could plunge the vision and minds of lower-level transcendents into complete darkness.】
【Year 439 of the Gillon Calendar, January 12th: You left the Kingdom of Greyland.】
【January 17th: Vicky and Makoff's child was born.】
【February 28th: Black Star arrived at your territory in secret, but upon learning you were not there, left a letter.】
