Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Passing the Buck—An Emergency Meeting for Lor
Lor’s Spiritual Perception locked onto the barren desert a thousand miles away.
Mark, gather, dive.
"Whoosh—"
A Meteor streaked across the sky, the Elemental Energy within it volatile and powerful.
"Boom——"
The Meteor fell and then suddenly exploded.
A massive crater appeared on the desert, with one deep fissure after another cracking open, and countless dust clouds rising into the air.
At first glance, it was shocking.
After casting the Meteor Technique, Lor immediately glanced at his Sea of Consciousness.
"Seventy percent.." Lor thought to himself, "Whether it’s direct release or reinforced with Gravity Technique to cast the 3.5 Ring Meteor Technique should be fine. As for combining the two to cast the 3.6 Ring Meteor Technique, perhaps I would need Spiritual Power to advance further."
Compared to the sea war, his Spiritual Power had more than doubled.
The destructive power of this Meteor made the two Great Wizards who could see the situation a thousand miles away hold their breath.
"How is this possible?" Bruno was utterly shocked at the situation happening a thousand miles away.
He had anticipated that Lor might be strong, even considered that he might cast 3.2 Ring Witchcraft.
But never did he expect that this person could actually cast 3.4 Ring Witchcraft, it was simply a...miracle!
"Another leap of 0.5 Rings." Agular was already somewhat numb.
This student had been shocking him ever since his apprenticeship.
The Lava Eruption Witchcraft fused during his apprenticeship, capable of exploding with 1 Ring power at 0.7 Ring, later heard to have improved again during the battle in the Divine Kingdom, exploding with 1.4 Ring power.
When he reached 1 Ring, he witnessed the appearance of the Meteor Technique in the Flame Sand Sea, again leaping 0.5 Rings, exploding with 2.4 Ring power.
And now, the same Meteor Technique, this student once again leapt 0.5 Rings, exploding with 3.4 Ring power.
If this Meteor Technique were cast on him, the consequences would be indescribable.
"Unknowingly, Lor has already surpassed me in some aspects." Agular thought in a daze.
As for Levan and Kateya, who came to watch the excitement, their Spiritual Power did not meet the standard, they could only see the dust raised, and the endlessly shaking ground.
They couldn’t sense the specific power of the Meteor Technique.
However, after secretly observing Bruno’s expression, they understood that the Meteor Technique cast by their mentor (Lord Lor) this time might have reached another level.
"Truly worthy of being a mentor."
"Lord Lor is truly an incomparable genius."
Both Levan and Kateya were filled with admiration.
"Lor Wizard."
After quite a while, Bruno finally calmed down from the shock and said with a tone of respect:
"Regarding your arrangements, I am in no position to interfere, only the Tower Master can decide, you can speak to the Tower Master face to face with your ideas."
The talent Lor now displayed was already beyond his control.
If he dared to take the initiative, and anything happened to this one, he would likely be killed by the Tower Master.
Therefore, his only choice was to contact the Tower Master to handle it personally.
"Alright." Lor nodded slightly.
His goal was to obtain contribution points to exchange for Divine Power Crystals and Magic Crystals.
If Cooper Wizard chose to directly give him resources, and if he could give him enough Divine Crystals at once to elevate his Spiritual Power to the Fourth Ring, he would definitely accept without hesitation.
A debt of gratitude could be repaid slowly in the future.
But if it was only enough resources to boost to the Third Ring, then it was meaningless, he would prefer to earn contribution points himself, avoiding the cost of owing a huge favor.
As for not giving resources and protecting him within the tower?
Every Fourth Ring Wizard is a prodigy rising from countless Wizard Apprentices, and wouldn’t have such unwise thoughts.
"Please wait a moment." Seeing Lor agree, Bruno immediately took out the Continent Communication Device to try to contact Cooper.
A minute...
Three minutes...
Ten minutes later, looking at the communication device that had not responded for a long time, Bruno was utterly helpless.
"The Tower Master is probably fighting on the front line right now, the energy disturbance there is likely very great, making it hard to contact."
Bruno sighed and looked at Lor, cautiously saying: "If you have other requests, you can make them, but as a Support Wizard, I truly cannot make the decisions."
He originally thought he got a good job that allowed him to earn favors everywhere.
But now, he only felt that it was a hot potato, one that he couldn’t shake off.
"I need a large amount of Divine Power Crystals and Magic Crystals."
Lor looked sincerely at Bruno and said truthfully: "I am still too weak now, facing those Fourth Order Demons is simply futile."
"Therefore, I am thinking of quickly relying on Divine Power Crystals to enhance my Spiritual Power to become a Third Ring or even a Fourth Ring Wizard, to assist the Tower Master and others."
"This..."
Bruno’s lips twitched twice, then, as if remembering something, his eyes lit up, "Lor Wizard, please wait a moment, I need to discuss with other representatives."
The value of Divine Crystals is very high, and Lor requires a lot. He definitely couldn’t make the decision alone.
But if he could convince the other representatives, the outcome might be different.
"Alright." Lor responded, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
Directly obtaining Divine Crystals to achieve the Fourth Ring would be the perfect outcome.
Bruno did not avoid Lor at all, he directly activated the communication device in his hand and initiated an emergency meeting with representatives.
In the next instant, nine light screens popped out from the communication device.
"Bruno, what happened?"
"Is it the Abyssal Demon?"
"So soon? I haven’t completed the task of relocating the mortals at the edge of the continent yet."
"Same here."
...
"Everyone, I didn’t activate the emergency communication for that reason. It’s actually about..." Bruno introduced Lor to everyone and recounted all the previous events.
"3.4 Ring Fusion Witchcraft?!"
"It’s truly unbelievable."
"Am I dreaming?"
...
On the other side of the nine light screens, everyone was bewildered by Bruno’s words.
However, no one doubted the truth of what Bruno said, at most suspecting they were dreaming.
Because this matter couldn’t be faked, it could be verified anytime.
"Ladies and gentlemen, that’s the situation at hand, what do you all suggest we do?" Bruno seized the moment when it was adequate and immediately passed on the hot potato, feeling significantly relieved.
This way, regardless of the decision, the burden would be shared by everyone.
If something unexpected happened, everyone would face the consequences together.
"This..."
"Hiss——"
"Bruno, you..."
...
Across the light screen, except for a Third Ring young wizard in a dark green Wizard Robe, everyone else seemed on the verge of cursing.
They were naturally clear about Bruno’s intentions.
This guy was downright wicked.
After a moment of indignation, they all turned their eyes to the young wizard in the green robe, waiting for his decision.
This was Ron Beaton, Speaker Warren’s representative, and the current actual authority on the Betula Continent.
"Lor Wizard." Ron looked at Lor and softly asked, "How many Fourth Ring Scrolls do you have on you? What exactly are they?"
"Three Guardian Tree Fourth Ring Scrolls." Lor remained expressionless and calm as he understated.
With his current status, even if exposed, it wouldn’t matter.
And if not discovered, it could become a trump card, leaving others guessing about the real purpose. That interpretation would depend on individuals.
