Extraordinary Voyage-Chapter 806 - 691: Creator’s Blood and White Swan Castle (2)

The two walked out of the Witchcraft Garden together, outside is the Long Island Manor nearing completion after two years of construction, along with its most important body—the entirely snow-white White Swan Castle!

Surrounded by dense forests and clear rivers, the scenic White Swan Castle is composed of the main building, annexes, towers, aerial corridors, defense fortresses, etc., totaling 360 rooms each with their distinct functions.

Modeled after the construction standards of a Wizard Tower, it also boasts complete water supply, lighting, and heating systems, various Rune Arrays... comparable even to the Orange Leaf Castle which has been transformed into a Wizard Tower by the Nymph.

Of course, the materials used during this period were startling, totaling at least 5000 tons of marble from Pigens Town, 400,000 bricks, 3600 cubic meters of sand and stone, 600 tons of cement, 50 tons of hard coal, and countless decorative materials and saplings.

Fortunately, most of the materials could be produced on the estate, only needing to pay for labor.

In fact, to build this Long Island Manor, Aiven even ordered the construction of a medium-sized cement factory in Georgia, with limestone, clay, iron ore, and coal being native to Georgia, adding yet another tool to the infrastructure fanatics' arsenal.

Currently.

According to the design plans, only a large tower in the southeast corner remains unfinished, but since Liweina will be coming soon, they had to pause construction, letting workers and hired artists focus fully on finishing the interior decoration of the main and auxiliary buildings.

Snap—!

Looking at the prepared raw materials, Aiven lightly snapped his fingers.

Rumble...

In the midst of a surge of red light, various materials quickly merged and piled up, forming a huge stone tower like a tree rising from the ground. Compared to when Aiven used the Bronze Talisman to build the Waterfall Hill Wizard Tower, it was much easier.

The majestic White Swan Castle is thus declared complete.

Ha!

He breathed on the ring in his hand as if it took no effort at all.

Aiven felt that with this treasure in hand, he could unleash a formidable Hundred-armed Giant even in the real world.

Seeing the envious gaze of Angie beside him, Aiven had no intention of letting the girl have a try.

Without the Upper-Rank Wizard assisting with the Origin's True Name, even Angie, who ranks second in power in her School, does not have the qualification to harness such powers.

If by any chance she fused herself with stone and earth, that would be a big problem.

"Come on, let's go inland for a stroll."

While Aiven and Angie were still testing the limits of the Creator's Blood's power, the rest of the household wasn't idle.

Knowing that Her Majesty the Queen will visit, Olivia, the lady of the Galliot family, temporarily put her affairs aside and busied herself in the main building of White Swan as it gradually acquired a noble aura.

She directed a group of artisans, artists, well-trained human servants, and Night Spirit maids, to hurry preparations. The final renovation of the castle, rooms for the Queen's stay, security operations, schedule checklist, menu, ingredients, silver cutlery, porcelain... must all be personally attended to.

As for the Long Island specialty wine that Aiven intended to pitch to Liweina, it was entrusted to Midorra, an Outsider Apprentice concurrently serving as the governor of the Governor's Mansion, White Swan Castle, and Waterfall Hill Wizard Tower.

In the well-equipped cellar beneath White Swan Castle, dozens of oak barrels undergoing aging were arranged. Each barrel with a capacity of about 225 liters could bottle 300 standard 740ml bottles of wine.

Among them, only two barrels are wines brewed last year and matured for a year; the rest are new batches from this year.

Though Anita isn't here, the other girls at home are still enthusiastic; after the territory's Cabernet Sauvignon matured in September, this year's wine brewing was completed.

Moreover, production increased several times.

Besides Olivia, Angie, and Jasmine, Midorra, a fungal life form, with a group of beautiful Night Spirit ladies joined in as well.

Though this Outsider Apprentice hasn't yet advanced to become an Official Wizard, her race's innate skills in fermentation far surpass even that of Senior Official Wizard-level Angie.

But these wines they crafted with their own hands weren't meant for sale; they're intended as Marquis's Mansion-exclusive offerings, enjoyed only by specific individuals.

There's also another main reason; to demonstrate support for the wine industry's development, Aiven had once taken Chief Governor Miss Olivia to visit the brewing processes in other wineries within the territory.

Since then, the two of them have essentially quit drinking wines from outside.

To save costs, those merchants wouldn't use youthful beautiful girls to stomp grapes, let alone those extraordinary women like the elder sister, Olivia, and Angie whose bodies have undergone several rounds of qualitative changes, clean as spring water.

So it's imaginable how unwatchable that could be.

In the evening.

Aiven and Angie returned to White Swan Castle, unconcerned with the trivial matters in the castle, and Aiven wasn't too mindful of Liweina's Queen status, although they had to host, close enough was good.

Now, his entire focus was on his next qualitative change.

Although "Submarine Thermal Vent" conceptually should be closest to the origin of life, its effects exceed all records in the fifth Scroll by past sages.

Yet Aiven also discovered the biggest issue: this mix of organic and inorganic material is still somewhat flawed compared with pure biological materials in activity.

If it's not used simply as a tool but completely integrated the Creator's Blood into personal body, fusing with every cell, nature of life, or even Spiritual aspects, then there's no turning back.

The bow once drawn cannot be recalled, at this stage, perfection is imperative!

So he couldn't help hesitating.

At least such random thermal vents nearby seabed seem far from reaching the quality limit of such material.

Simply inferring reveals that the more primitive the Spring of Life, the more abundant in Spirituality, the better its effect.

Judging from the active degree of Magic Elements in this world, it's clear from Broken Star Sea to New Continent, then to Black Sea, to Old Continent, Spirituality decreases sequentially.

Aiven waved open the Ocean Treasure: Ancient Scroll always kept by him, his eyes focused on the position labeled "Broken Star Islands". There, not too far from its central area, lies a circle of unnamed volcanic islands.

More than 2000 large and small volcanic craters are regularly arranged across crisscrossing seabed fault lines, surely harboring large-scale undersea chimney fields.

Sparkle flashed within his eyes:

"Near the peripheral area, not too dangerous, fully possible to combine the World's Favor with the quest of finding Submarine Thermal Vents. Could this place offer me surprises?

Right, seems Angie's girl friends mentioned that the extraordinary forces on Celebes Island plan another large-scale exploration soon. Perhaps... we might hitch a ride for it."
