Chapter 53 - 52 Seventh Ring Magic•Eye of the World ” (Seeking Chase Reading)
In a large bathhouse located in the core area of the Golden Lion Family estate.
Hot steam rises, Milton Cheney leans against the edge of the bath, his body submerged in water, his eyes slightly closed, looking relaxed.
This bathhouse is somewhat like the hot springs where Cheney used to soak in his previous life, with the water being changed every day.
Thus, Cheney comes here every few days to unwind.
At the next moment, his relaxed expression turns to a serious one, his eyes fixed straight ahead.
“Here it comes!”
No sooner had the thought surfaced in his mind, than two mechanical sounds echoed in Cheney’s mind.
[Wizard’s Life Simulator upgrade completed, Wizard’s Life Simulator 2.0 at your service.]
[The novice period has ended. Future simulations will require magic stones for energy recharge.]
“Magic stones for energy?”
The next moment, a set of memories flood into Cheney’s mind, helping him quickly comprehend the upgraded simulator.
In simple terms, the simulations during the novice period were entirely free, but they will now be charged.
Besides accruing one simulation count per month, magic stones will be needed to initiate the simulations.
Simulations require enerzv to run. Earlier, the novice subsidv allowed him to
use the Simulator for free a few times. However, now that Cheney has become a Wizard Apprentice, he no longer receives the subsidy.
“This isn’t good news.”
Cheney frowned in thought.
The upgradation he had been eagerly awaiting, instead of adding new features, only added a payment requirement.
Each simulation will now require 10 magic stones. Although it’s not a large number, very few people on the subcontinent possess magic stones. One could say they are priceless.
However, Cheney didn’t feel dissatisfied. It’s normal for an external plugin to charge, and ten magic stones is not a high price to pay.
Moreover, Cheney didn’t have to worry about magic stones for the time being.
After the family treasury was opened to him, he could use magic stones at will.
Although Cheney has not carefully observed how many magic stones the Golden Lion Family has, there must be at least hundreds of them, which are enough to cover the costs of his dozens of simulations.
“So soon?”
As Cheney pondered about the magic stones, he suddenly felt a surge of joy in his heart.
Just a few minutes after his simulator had been upgraded, his Spatial Key embedded in his Spiritual Sea suddenly changed.
The next moment, the Spatial Key, which was hovering in the center of his Spiritual Sea, appeared in Cheney’s hand.
His spiritual power passed through the Spatial Key, and an additional transparent space suddenly appeared before his eyes.
“It’s so big!”
The small dimensional space of the Spatial Key was large enough to rival the size of his room, almost covering hundreds of square meters. Time doesn’t flow in this subspace. In the middle of it, Cheney could see several wooden boxes.
Cheney first shut his subspace, then got out of the bathhouse.
After drying himself and getting dressed in neat clothes, he left the bathhouse.
This bathhouse, in the core area of the Golden Lion Family, was occupied only by Cheney, apart from the guards stationed outside.
Nodding to the saluting guards, Cheney left the place and returned to his small estate.
Back in his room in the estate, Cheney locked the door and reopened the small dimensional space of his Spatial Key.
The next moment, a wooden box appeared on the floor in front of him with a single thought from Cheney.
Cheney’s eyes sparked with excitement, witnessing this scene felt almost magical.
Instead of opening the wooden box with his hand directly, Cheney found a
stick to lift the lid.
“Goodness, I won’t have to worry about simulations now. Whatever I lack, I’ve got. Could I actually be the protagonist?”
Cheney looked somewhat astonished.
As the wooden box on the floor opened, everything inside was laid bare before Cheney’s eyes.
Inside the box was an array of perfectly orderly light purple gemstones.
Milton Cheney was naturally familiar with these gems, they were Magic Stones!
An entire box of Magic Stones!
Milton Cheney approached the wooden box and casually picked up a Magic Stone. The light purple Magic Stone emitted a faint halo, mysterious and beautiful.
Milton Cheney quickly counted the number of Magic Stones in the wooden box.
Five hundred. Exactly five hundred Magic Stones neatly arranged inside the box!
It should be noted that the Golden Lion Family had accumulated only a little over a hundred Magic Stones over hundreds of years, yet here before Milton Cheney was a box containing five hundred Magic Stones.
And within the Small Dimensional Space accessed by the Spatial Key, Milton Cheney saw not just one box.
There were two more boxes like this. If they were also filled with Magic Stones, then he would truly hit the jackpot.
The next moment, Milton Cheney once again activated the Spatial Key, and two more boxes appeared before him.
Milton Cheney skillfully lifted the lids with his wand, revealing the contents of the two boxes.
“Another whole box full of Magic Stones, and this, a book?”
Having mentally prepared himself, Milton Cheney wasn’t as surprised when he saw another box filled with Magic Stones.
However, the item in the other wooden box attracted his interest.
The large wooden box held just an ordinary-looking book.
Milton Cheney picked up the book, which seemed thin but was rather heavy. He could not ascertain the material of the book.
An eye somewhat resembling a human eye was etched on the cover of the book.
As Milton Cheney looked at this eye, his Spiritual Power seemed to be activated within his Spiritual Sea.
Flipping through the book, he saw texts and symbols he couldn’t understand.
Upon flipping it from cover to cover, Milton Cheney didn’t find anything special about the book.
The moment he closed the book, however!
The eye on the book cover seemed to hook onto a wisp of his Spiritual Power.
The next moment, the pages of the book flipped open automatically.
The text and symbols within the book started to distort, merge, and finally transformed into the outline of a pair of eyes.
Milton Cheney felt as if the eyes were alive. He could clearly sense as if the pair of eyes, formed by the merging of the text and symbols, were staring back at him.
The moment he felt that gaze, Milton Cheney felt an extra piece of memory emerge in his mind.
“Zero Ring Magic.Eye of the Mind!”
This book actually contained a Zero Ring Magic spell, and it wasn’t just any ordinary Zero Ring Magic spell.
The clear memory made Milton Cheney understand that this Eye of the Mind was the absolute core of Spiritual System Magic.
It’s worth mentioning that typical Zero Ring Magic spells have no potential, but some can be reconstructed into First Ring Magic after one becomes an Official Wizard.
But there’s another type of magic that seems to have no limit, and almost no one has ever fully mastered it.
The Eye of the Mind is one such magic!
While the current Milton Cheney hasn’t grasped this magic yet, the extra memory and method of inscription in his mind about this magic made him understand its immense value.
In the memory of the evolution chain of Eye of the Mind, Milton Cheney even saw an eye, so gigantic it seemed to be larger than a planet. That was the known end of this Zero Ring Magic spell.
“Seventh Ring Magic.Eye of the World!”
