Chapter 1022: The First Talent Brand Is Born! (5)

At the end of the meeting, Knight Hogg from the Realm of Crimson spoke up.
“Commander, I’ve found a lead on elemental metal. Three days ago, I attended an auction held by a nomadic wizard at the Flaming Mountain. There, someone was selling Black Flame Meteorite Iron, supposedly a fifth-level fire element metal originating from the Land of Darkness. However, that stuff was too expensive. Just a small piece of ore, about the size of a head, could only yield a small chunk of Black Flame Devil Iron, yet it sold for sixty thousand Aether Stones. I couldn’t afford it, but after the auction, I managed to locate the seller through the organizers. I mentioned I knew a big buyer, and if he still had some, I could facilitate a deal for you. Whenever you have time, you can come to the Realm of Crimson. Based on his tone, he may have more than one piece.”
Levi nodded and replied.
“Well done, Hogg. With your abilities, it was best not to get involved in bidding for valuable items. The wizarding world is too chaotic nowadays, with dark forces specifically targeting various gatherings to commit unjust robberies. Give me your coordinates, and I’ll find time to visit the Realm of Crimson. I’ll personally speak with that wizard.”
Black Flame Devil Iron, similar to Blood Demon Crystal, was a special ore formed by the fortuitous coincidence of some powerful creatures falling in the Land of Darkness. Its fire element properties were unique, different from Heavenly Fire Meteorite Iron. Levi felt that his Death Ember Breathing Technique complemented this Black Flame Devil Iron well.
However, as the Death Ember Breathing Technique was a physique type, Levi intended to forge a knight armor type divine weapon or, dare we say… divine armor!
This could be considered quite extravagant. For elemental metals like Black Flame Devil Iron, adding a small piece during wizard weapon refinement could create a fourth-circle wizard tool.
The amount of Black Flame Devil Iron required to forge a knight armor might cost millions of Aether Stones in raw materials.
Fortunately, Levi was wealthy enough then. As long as the seller had it, he had no fear of being unable to afford it. Crafting the divine weapon of the Death Ember Breathing Technique, after collecting the Four Divine Armor, would significantly enhance his strength.
After the meeting concluded, Levi left the Ancient Saint plane and flew towards the mortal realm. During this time, he obtained information about the wizarding world through messengers and the Rosa Witch.
…
Peacock Kingdom, Flower City, Shining Tavern.
Rosa Witch, dressed in her finest, radiant as fire.
Levi, holding a cup of Hundred Flowers Wine, savored its spicy sweetness as it flowed down his throat.
“I heard that the City Lord of Flower City is also named Levi…” Rosa Witch glanced at Levi, softly remarking.
A stir of realization crossed Levi’s mind; it seemed Rosa Witch had uncovered his true identity.
He was indeed the Lord Levi from a hundred years ago.
Though he had kept it concealed, with the information network of the Shining Tavern and Rosa Witch, it was perhaps inevitable.
Yet Levi no longer cared about this revelation of his identity.
Once, he was too weak, fearing reprisal from the Church of Holy Light, which led him to hide his name.
Now, with his strength, he wouldn’t bother the Church unless they provoked him, which would be them giving him face.
If the Church dared to provoke him, he would march straight to Heavenly Mountain And scatter the ashes of past saints!
After over a hundred years of concealment, it was time for Master Li to make a splash!
He had realized that the Church was nothing but a paper tiger, relying on the power of their God from behind.
Many wizards adhered to the initial agreement between Sauron and the gods, avoiding trouble.
But some unscrupulous wizards, like that mysterious figure, only a Fifth-Circle Wizard, dared to openly seize the statue of the Lord of Storm.
Would it be excessive for him to snatch a few Sealing Sacred Objects from Heavenly Mountain?
Moreover, the seal heritage of the Van Helsing family was still up there.
As a collector, Levi would eventually retrieve it.
Surely, the gods wouldn’t use divine power or angels to punish him over such trivial matters, would they?
If the gods had the leisure to do so, the “War of the North Wind,” which had been ongoing for years and was undermining the foundation of the Church’s faith, would have ended long ago!
In reality, the Church had only barely managed to halt the southward advance of the Blue Frost Undead, without completely overthrowing the Blue Frost Empire.
Although Levi didn’t know what the gods were doing in the astral world, he could still deduce from events on Earth and the Great Expedition that there was definitely unrest in the astral world!
Refocusing his thoughts, Levi smiled and said, “In this world, there may have been countless others named Levi.”
“Haha, indeed. The reason I called you here this time was twofold: firstly, Madam Triss had something to discuss with you, and secondly, we needed to discuss the location for the branch wizard tower of the Witch’s Family,” Rosa Witch said.
“Please, go ahead,” Levi replied.
“Madam Triss asked me to give something to you,” Rosa Witch said, and suddenly, a fiery red rose blossomed on her chest, with a small black pagoda at its center.
“The key to the Dark Ancient Tower?” Levi was puzzled. He already had two of these things, and now there was another one.
It seemed Madam Triss was still thinking about sending him to the Dark Ancient Tower. She really went to great lengths as a mother for Anya.
Levi felt a pang of jealousy towards Anya. Why didn’t he have a mother like Madam Triss to take care of him?
“Snap out of it and take it. This key was not disclosed to the Witch’s Family and was obtained through her own means. Keep it low-key,” Rosa Witch reminded him.
