Chapter 115: Chapter 102: Hunting The Eye of Death! (Please Subscribe)
Within the chaotic space, soon only five people remained.
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.
Including himself, three men and two women, Lynn swept a glance over them but didn’t initiate conversation due to a lack of intelligence.
The witch beside them couldn’t hold back any longer and straightforwardly asked, “North, I’ve already secured the high mage crystals you wanted, at a considerable effort; now you should be able to tell us what you need these for, right?”
High mage crystals?
Lynn instantly gazed at her in astonishment; after all, these items were alchemy guild secrets, rumored to have nearly the power of a fourth-tier magic spell with each shot as long as there was a sufficient magic power supply.
“I need these items, naturally, to venture into the Mist Sea to hunt ‘Death’s Eye’…” North, the wizard, said with a sinister smile.
Death’s Eye? The Great Maelstrom?
Lynn looked completely baffled, while the rest seemed to suddenly grasp something, as a wizard spoke out in a panic.
“Have you gone mad?”
The others also couldn’t help but interject, “North, if you want to rush to your death, don’t drag us into it. Even a great wizard wouldn’t dare to say they could confidently hunt such a creature…”
Of course, they were well aware of what North’s ‘Death’s Eye’ referred to—a profoundly powerful magical creature in the Mist Sea capable of controlling water flows, devouring souls, and the source of the Great Maelstrom.
According to the information gathered by the Council Magic Creature Research Institute, there were about fifty ‘Death’s Eye’ creatures in the Mist Sea, coupled with the legendary spell Lost Fog, comprising the most critical defense line against the church’s invasions.
Even a great wizard wouldn’t want to face such a creature at sea; even if they won, it would be purposeless since the enemy could always flee.
Amidst the conversations of the others, Lynn started to gain some understanding of this magical creature known as ‘Death’s Eye’.
So, the Great Maelstrom in the Mist Sea was triggered by a creature?
Lynn immediately thought of the time he crossed the Mist Sea by ship, that power that seemed capable of capturing the soul.
“Of course, it would be quite difficult under normal circumstances, but who said I’m going to fight it on the sea surface? We don’t need a ship to get there…” North’s lips curled into a smile, turning his gaze towards Lynn.
“You’re planning to rely on an airship for an over-the-horizon attack?” Lynn instantly understood what the other was implying.
This powerful magical creature may control water flows and affect souls, but presumably, it didn’t have the ability to fly.
That is to say, as long as they ascended to a height of a few hundred meters, ‘Death’s Eye’s abilities would be unable to have any effect on them, leaving them passively exposed to the punishment of the magic crystal cannon.
No wonder [Bloodrose Thorns]was willing to spend a fortune to steal his airship blueprints; this was indeed the simplest method to kill ‘Death’s Eye’!
“Over-the-horizon? A fitting name indeed!” North pulled at the corners of his mouth, laughing proudly.
“I still have a few questions,” Lynn began to inquire. “First, how do we find and confirm the direction of ‘Death’s Eye’ in the Mist Sea? Second, with such low visibility in the mist, how would we aim if we flew high? Third, what if the target tries to escape?”
At this, everyone present immediately looked towards North, these points were all critical. Without the ability to solve them, they would end up busy for nothing.
“There’s no need to worry about these problems, I naturally have my methods!” North teased without giving a direct answer. He had prepared for a whole year for this hunt, originally planning to mount the Magic Crystal Cannon onto an alchemical ship, ready to go all out against ‘Death’s Eye’.
However, a few days ago, the visitor from outside the Wizard Land had brought forth a newly invented skyship, which changed North’s mind.
Seeing North so confident, everyone began to feel intrigued.
“What will we gain by helping you?” asked a female witch.
“A ‘Death’s Eye’ carcass is worth at least thirty thousand Magic Gold Coins. I’ll only need enough blood, the rest will be distributed based on contribution!” North said without hesitation, then looked towards Lynn.
“Radak, you contributed part of the skyship’s blueprint and are the most skilled among us in Magic Potion studies. Once we obtain the spiritual essence of ‘Death’s Eye’, you’ll be in charge of the creation. Just hand over three bottles of ‘Magic Source’, and the rest will be your reward.”
“If I’m not mistaken, a Magic Potion crafted using the essence of ‘Death’s Eye’ might even turn someone into a psychic…”
Lynn paused at North’s words, the term psychic wasn’t unfamiliar to him.
Within the Wizard Land, it usually referred to those born with immense spiritual power.
Like Bai Ge, whom he had seen perform peculiar Spiritual Witchcraft even at the apprentice stage, capable of influencing Archbishop Anluoke.
Others generally needed to advance to official wizard status before learning Spiritual Magic. Even Lynn, who had undergone a soul fusion, was no exception. Back in the Sekas Empire, he had extracted the technique for the Soul Scream spell from Bai Ge. Although he could use it, the effect was pitifully weak.
North’s words certainly weren’t without reason. It was rumored that the notorious Evil Mage Merck had become a psychic by concocting a Magic Potion from a demon’s spiritual essence.
And the power of ‘Death’s Eye’ would undoubtedly be even greater than that of the demon.
“As for you, Barbara, I will give you four thousand Magic Gold Coins as compensation for purchasing a high-tier Magic Crystal Cannon,” North said.
A smile emerged on Barbara’s face; North’s offer was almost unimaginable in its generosity. A high-tier Magic Crystal Cannon was worth around two thousand Magic Gold Coins—its procurement was the only hassle. Yet, he was willing to pay double the price.
North then turned to the remaining two people, equally making high-stake promises. He could not afford any mistakes in this operation!
“The construction and modification of the skyship should be completed in a few days. You’ll all be free by then, right?” North’s gaze, dark and probing, swept across each of them, clearly implying that regardless of their schedule, they had to make the time!
“Let’s set it for the day after tomorrow then! I just happen to have a very important experiment around that time,” Lynn suggested proactively. However, the real reason was naturally different from what he said. He specifically chose this timeframe because the day after tomorrow coincidentally fell on the school holiday of Yeyeta Academy!
For this so-called hunt, Lynn had no intention of being absent. North and the others wanted to use a stolen blueprint to create a skyship, hunt a ‘Death’s Eye’ and walk away with most of the profits. It wouldn’t be that easy…
