Chapter 1034: Flame Mark
Fire Transmission Stone?!
Angel hesitated for a moment before taking out several spheres that radiated a crimson luminescence from his bracelet.
As he took out these spheres, the temperature in the air slowly rose. The frigid air interwove with the fiery red light emanating from the spheres, creating a s.p.a.ce where the visuals seemed distorted.
Odecla.s.s glanced at them and then looked away.
These are shattered fragments of the Fire Transmission Stone. Creatures under the command of the Fire Transmission Demons all have something similar. Called fragments, but in reality, they are vastly different from the complete Fire Transmission Stone.
Even tens of thousands of fragments of the Fire Transmission Stone are no match for a single complete stone.
Odecla.s.s didn’t speak, but the disdain in his eyes was undisguised. Angel knew that the fragments of the Fire Transmission Stone were definitely inferior to the complete ones. He had taken them out only to inquire about one thing.
“Honorable Lord Odecla.s.s, I have heard that the Fire Transmission Stone is synthesized from such fragments.”
Odecla.s.s was silent for a moment, then nodded.
“I am an Alchemist, and I can attempt to fuse these fragments of the Fire Transmission Stone. However, I do not know the method of synthesis…”
These fragments of the Fire Transmission Stone had been obtained from a Fire Transmission Bone Witch outside the Ashenrock Giantstone. At that time, Madeline had told him the fragments weren’t very useful, but a complete Fire Transmission Stone was exceedingly rare.
However, the method for synthesizing the Fire Transmission Stone, legend had it, was known only to the Fire Transmission Demons.
A Fire Transmission Demon was at least at the True Knowledge Level. If you were powerful, killing it was simple, but to obtain the method of synthesizing the Fire Transmission Stone from it was near impossible.
The method for synthesizing the Fire Transmission Stone was the greatest secret guarded by the Fire Transmission Demon.
Angel certainly couldn’t face a Fire Transmission Demon, and even if someone else could help him kill one, obtaining the synthesis method was out of the question. Thus, he could only inquire about it from Odecla.s.s.
Since Odecla.s.s needed the Fire Transmission Stone, perhaps he had the method of synthesis?
Yet, Odecla.s.s’s reply was short and decisive: “No.”
Angel’s expression turned somewhat dim. Without the synthesis method, the task was almost impossible to complete.
The coveted synthesis method guarded by the Fire Transmission Demon, no Wizard had obtained for years… Perhaps some had, but at least Angel had not heard of it.
Angel didn’t believe he had the luck to obtain it. Moreover, with Toby by his side, he couldn’t even begin to hope for any good fortune.
Odecla.s.s’s task was almost impossible to complete, and the Yerfa Wizard was in another plane. Was Toby’s misfortune only to be fading with time?
Furthermore, even if time could erode it, they would need a place of safety, but where in the Abyss could one find such a place?
While Angel was disheartened, Odecla.s.s was actually entertaining another thought.
Angel had said a phrase before—I am an Alchemist.
It was this phrase that reminded Odecla.s.s of something “Feng” had once mentioned. Alchemists were a rare presence in the entire Wizards’ Realm. If indeed someone could synthesize a Fire Transmission Stone, it would likely only be an Alchemist.
If Angel had not spoken these words, Odecla.s.s might have already sent him away from Ice Valley, but after declaring his profession, Odecla.s.s, who initially had little faith that Angel could bring back a Fire Transmission Stone, now harbored a sliver of hope.
It was this flicker of hope that spurred him to reveal new information.
“Although I do not know the method to synthesize the Fire Transmission Stone, I do know where one might find it.”
…
Angel left Ice Valley.
As he faced the raging snowstorm and stepped out of Ice Valley, the lingering flames on his body formed a flame-shaped mark that attached itself to his left earlobe.
From a distance, it looked like a flame-shaped earring.
This Flame Mark, given by Odecla.s.s, served only two purposes: to avoid the chaotic curse of Ice Valley and to indicate that Angel was temporarily aligned with Odecla.s.s’s faction.
Previously, when Angel had left the Ice Crystal Palace, he had been eroded by the external curse. The Flame Mark then turned into a circle of firelight around him, blocking the chaotic curse of Ice Valley.
It can be said that until the Flame Mark vanished, Angel could move freely in and out of Ice Valley without interference from the curse.
As for the second function of the Flame Mark, it was also the key as to whether Angel could obtain the method of synthesizing the Fire Transmission Stone this time.
With the Flame Mark on him, it indicated not only his alignment with Odecla.s.s’s faction but also temporarily suppressed his human aura.
In the wild, if other Demons discovered him, at least they would not attack him because of his ident.i.ty.
Of course, some Demons cared little for such affiliations and were naturally bloodthirsty. Against such Demons, the Flame Mark would be of no use. However, at least the Demons a.s.sociated with Odecla.s.s’s faction would no longer harm him.
This time, Angel’s target was an underground Demon City called La.s.sudral.
According to Odecla.s.s, there was a Half-Blood Demon there who was once related to an old friend of his. This Half-Blood Demon, aside from having half the bloodline of the indigenous Abyss peoples, had the other half of its bloodline from a Fire Transmission Demon.
Odecla.s.s had a friend named “Feng” who had mentioned a past connection with this Half-Blood Demon and had said that it received a complete inheritance from a Fire Transmission Demon. With that in mind, it should also possess the method for synthesizing the Fire Transmission Stone.
Angel’s task was to go to La.s.sudral to find the Half-Blood Demon and figure out how to procure the synthesis method for the Fire Transmission Stone.
To infiltrate Demon City, the Flame Mark on his body was indispensable.
After leaving Ice Valley, it took Angel less than half an hour to leave the mountains.
He didn’t see Fafnir at the entrance to the mountains and thought she had left. However, as he was determining his next move, Fafnir suddenly descended from the sky.
Fafnir was still in human form, her sensual, dark complexion glossy and slick.
“You’re actually not dead?” were Fafnir’s first words upon seeing Angel.
Angel: “…” What could he say? It seemed that Fafnir had always harbored the att.i.tude that she might be killed by Odecla.s.s.
“Could it be his personality has changed?” Fafnir murmured to herself, her gaze continuing to a.s.sess Angel, skepticism in her eyes, until it finally settled on his left earlobe.
That Flame Mark made Fafnir’s expression lapse into a momentary daze.
Fafnir stared dumbly at the Flame Mark, as if through the flickering flame phantom on Angel’s earlobe, she could see the ma.s.sive and terrifying dragon body.
The fixated look in Fafnir’s eyes sent a chill down Angel’s spine.
Her gaze was almost identical to the way Odecla.s.s had looked at the painting of Binaqionse!
Could it be that his previous guess was right? Had a melodramatic romance unfolded between the three dragons, Fafnir, Odecla.s.s, and Binaqionse?
While his thoughts were swirling, Fafnir let out a soft sigh.
She had intended to ask about the Flame Mark but restrained herself, merely saying, “Did Odecla.s.s remove the calamity from your little bird?”
Angel: “…” What does she mean ‘my little bird’? It’s Toby! And after Toby transformed into a Gryphon, he has become quite large!
Despite internally grumbling, Angel’s demeanor remained highly respectful.
He took Toby out from his bracelet, and Toby was still in a deep slumber, albeit now encased within an ice ball.
This ice ball was the work of Odecla.s.s, and how he, a Flame Dragon, managed to craft it was beyond Angel.
According to Odecla.s.s, this ice ball could temporarily suppress Toby’s bad luck.
However, the time to suppress the misfortune was limited, roughly about two hundred hours.
Therefore, Angel didn’t have much time; he needed to procure the synthesis method for the Fire Transmission Stone within this brief period and return from La.s.sudral to Ice Valley.
Angel, holding the ice ball with Toby inside, briefly recounted his experiences after arriving in Ice Valley.
Truth be told, the experience was brief. Odecla.s.s’s words to him didn’t amount to more than ten sentences in total, with most of them revolving around the Half-Blood Demon from La.s.sudral.
So, he finished recounting rather quickly.
After listening, Fafnir’s expression was peculiar. Indeed, Odecla.s.s’s words seemed to match his personality, yet she couldn’t comprehend many of his choices.
Firstly, he actually didn’t kill this human?
Secondly, he gave this frail human a glimmer of hope by offering the Fire Transmission Stone in exchange for lifting the calamity.
She was well aware of the significance of the Fire Transmission Stone to Odecla.s.s. She had even heard Binaqionse say that Odecla.s.s claimed he would befriend whoever brought him a complete Fire Transmission Stone.
It could be said that the Fire Transmission Stone was of immense importance to Odecla.s.s.
And yet he had entrusted this task to this human? And furthermore, he had granted this human the Flame Mark and even helped suppress the bird’s calamity.
All of this seemed to indicate an att.i.tude: Odecla.s.s believed that Angel might actually be able to obtain the Fire Transmission Stone.
But on what grounds did Odecla.s.s hold such a belief? This was but a contemptible human, what merits did he have?
She asked repeatedly about the details, and Angel did not hide anything, disclosing everything.
Fafnir could tell Angel wasn’t lying, but it was precisely because everything was so logical that she felt even more perplexed.
Since she couldn’t figure it out, she decided to set it aside for the time being and instead asked about something else.
“After he received that piece of Frost Dragon Scale, did he ask anything about me?” asked Fafnir. Although her expression was calm, the slight contraction of her pupils indicated her inner turmoil wasn’t as serene as it seemed.
Angel shook his head: “Lord Odecla.s.s didn’t say anything.”
In fact, there was a reaction. When Angel mentioned Fafnir, Odecla.s.s’s eyes flashed with a clear sign of anger.
However, such things were better left unsaid.
