A Sorcerer’s Journey
Chapter 1094 - 1096: The Microscopic Realm
Buzz...
The time-space distortion of the world transmission formation squeezed fiercely, and Green’s true body silently endured the pressure akin to stretching noodles, his expression unchanging.
A moment later, clarity returned before his eyes.
Returning to the radiation grand world, the vast world will and the boundless continental structure rules made Green instantly feel a sense of insignificance and littleness.
As a grand world, its immense inclusiveness allows not only a Fifth-Level Stigmata Wizard like Green but also True Spirit Wizards and Endless Dominators to freely traverse within and unleash their powers.
"Honored Stigmata Wizards, please register your identity here."
Compared to the Canyon World, the world transmission formation in the radiation grand world was undoubtedly monitored more closely, with conventional mechanical surveillance, the Black Terminator inspections by Curse Wizards, and the secret observations by Wizards adept at perception.
Furthermore, the location was within a massive sealing array capable of sealing and controlling any World Master beneath the Dominators. If anything happened, there was nowhere to escape!
At this moment, a mechanical puppet came to Green’s side, holding a crystal ball for record-keeping.
Click, click, click...
As one by one, the Shadow Star Falling cabin doors opened, numerous Third-Level Great Sorcerers following five Stigmata Wizards out for the mission of the activated world’s demise, walked out, stowed the Shadow Star Falling, and queued for archival recording.
For these low-grade Wizards, the 160-plus years of mission time had been quite lengthy.
Fortunately, the mission yielded abundant rewards; besides some battlefield wealth discovered in the void, there were also rich gains from the activated world, with several completing missions for a First-Level Honor Medal, freeing themselves from the fate of being cannon fodder. More importantly, none died during this expedition—an exceptionally successful raid.
After half an Hourglass’s time.
Having completed all archival checks, the world transmission formation seal opened externally, and the Wizards who completed the activated world’s destruction mission dispersed.
...
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Green, Sachi, and Lulianmian flew off in three different directions.
Night Shadow Sachi headed to the Sea King Ritual Base to investigate Green’s commission, while Raindrop Clone Lu Lianmian, with Xiao Ba and Leafy, took charge of collecting the experimental resources Green would soon need. Green reported alone to Moonlake of True Spirit Sorcerer to accept new direct commission tasks.
Above the immense fluctuations of the seal, a mechanical puppet emerged from the floor, serving as the will carrier for Moonlake of True Spirit Sorcerer.
"Well done on the task; try to preserve as many Third-Level Wizards as possible, as they will build the new generation of the Sorcerer System after the war. Many veterans of the Stigmata Wizards either perished or ascended to True Spirit, hence the generational gap in Wizards."
With that, the mechanical puppet produced a mission scroll that floated into Green’s hand.
"Familiarize yourself with the radiation world rules first; ten years later, complete this auxiliary task at the World Tree Base. The mission reward is 750 grams of Philosopher’s Stone. We need manpower for the war, and your abilities are quite rare. Also, if you choose not to contribute to the knowledge reserves of the Holy Tower Book, consider training a few disciples, because even if the war claims you, ensure the legacy remains intact."
After receiving the mission scroll and being personally advised by Moonlake of True Spirit Sorcerer, Green felt both secretly delighted and confirmed to have entered the vision of those True Spirit Wizards. He nodded, maintaining composure on his face.
"Rest assured, Master. I have already left my will legacy in Wizard World; even if I face misfortune in the civilization war, this disciple will lead my will and create an even more splendid future."
...
A year later.
"Stigmata Sorcerer of the Oblivion Tower, accurate news has confirmed it—Kretia... has fallen."
Night Shadow Sachi returned, delivering the grim news that caused Green, immersed in experimental research, to tremble. In the stifling atmosphere, it took a while before Green solemnly said, "Understood, you may rest now."
After Night Shadow Sachi’s departure, Xiao Ba slowly returned to reality from his daze in the laboratory.
"Damn, it actually... it actually fell, Kretia..."
Closing his eyes, Green reminisced the bits and pieces from meeting this charming named wizard apprentice during the newcomer trials, the Holy Tower qualification battle, followed by the Laphie prison disaster, cooperation in the Flame Soul World, and the establishment of Oblivion Tower Academy—the fleeting passage of time in between.
After a while, Green, carrying enough memories to bear his experiences, regained himself, showing no traces of unusual emotion as he continued research on the metal magnet chip on the experiment table.
In the thousands of years of life’s river, a Wizard experiences so much.
...
Five years later.
"Is this the ability of the Metal Fire Seed? If relatively advanced flesh creatures suffer some contamination, they might develop pearl-like structures within, and this thumb-sized metal magnet chip holds such power!"
Green first integrated this metal magnet chip into pure water without a base for experimental observation.
Over several months, there was almost no change, even shrinking slightly, seemingly self-decaying.
Then Green placed the metal magnet chip in various natural environments, where it mostly underwent self-decomposition. Over two years, the chip’s volume decreased by about one-third in Green’s hand.
Gradually, Green began to identify some patterns.
This metal fragment likely originated from the metal fire seed’s radiation impact, capable of producing unbelievable reactions with energy-flow metals, with its metal concentration threshold requirement being biological blood.
Blood contains abundant metallic element molecules and is accompanied by significant biological energy, meeting the minimum preservation threshold for metal fire seed radiation.
Of course, the metallic element molecules in blood are relatively sparse, hence even centuries of nurturing only result in a nail-sized metal magnet chip, insignificant and unlikely to impact the organism much.
Finally, Green placed the remaining metal magnet chip on a metal magic lamp, and what happened was astonishing!
On the surface, the metal magnet chip seemed to melt, merging into the metal magic lamp, which then began to soften, its form transforming, sprouting metal limbs and an energy-emitting apparatus. Standing merely ten centimeters high, within the conserved sealing energy shield, it transformed into a mini-robot, fiercely unleashing firepower at Green!
To Green, this was almost like a "buzzing" mosquito.
The entire transformation process lasted around a few sand clocks.
Yet, in the microscopic world, an altogether different scene unfolded, not akin to the mysterious Mysticism, but rather the real existence of various rules in the Endless World. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
The metal magnet chip disintegrated into innumerable micro-world robots, frantically gathering the magic lamp’s dense negative energy metals, replicating themselves. When the entire magic lamp’s metals were collected, these innumerable micro-world robots solidified, merging into one, forming this new life of the magic lamp robot, and lost its self-replicating ability.
"Hiss! Thankfully, modern Mechanical Wizards have adopted carbon fiber structures extensively, also, never allow this Metal Fire Seed to pollute the radiation reaching Wizard World’s Eternal Sky City! Or else..."
Gulp.
Green swallowed hard, moistening his dry throat, picturing the apocalyptic scene should the Eternal Sky City suffer pollution from the fire seed radiation.
