On the other hand, he also wanted to relax. Although Isaac had anticipated the Mad Witch's situation, he rarely communicated with outsiders and lived in his own little circle, so he didn't have a deep enough understanding of the actual situation.
Not everyone is as tolerant as the people around him; discrimination is still quite serious.
However, although he no longer goes to the Endless Sea, it doesn't mean that Isaac will stop carrying out the sect's mission. On the one hand, the rewards on the contribution list are indeed tempting enough, as it's a floating city!
Even for Isaac, the only way to obtain building blueprints through normal means is to advance to the fourth-tier wizard level, increase his authority within the cult, and then accumulate contribution points over a period of time before he can exchange them for blueprints.
And this is not over yet!
As the most powerful weapon in the current wizarding world, it can be used indefinitely, comparable to a divine artifact in the hands of a god. The difficulty of the floating city is reflected in every aspect, and it is completely incomparable to the wizard tower.
Aside from the costs, blueprints, and personnel that can be addressed by simply throwing money at the problem, the most important thing is that the floating city must be built by the wizard himself!
Yes, unlike mage towers that can be outsourced, both floating cities built from scratch and those transformed from floating islands require the wizard himself to construct them.
Including design drawings!
Just getting your hands on that thing isn't enough; you have to learn how to use it first, then redesign a completely new blueprint, and personally participate in the process. It's an incredibly complicated process!
Therefore, not all high-ranking wizards have floating cities.
But there's nothing we can do about it. After all, the reason why the floating city is the biggest weapon in the wizarding world right now is because it provides wizards with an enormous boost!
For example, the title of demigod.
For knights, only by advancing to the sixth rank can they acquire this title, while for wizards, as long as they advance to the fifth rank, they can try to obtain it.
but!
A fifth-tier wizard, once he possesses a floating city, will inevitably obtain the title of demigod!
Even a newly promoted fifth-tier wizard!
Because floating cities can enhance wizards in all aspects, including their innate wizarding abilities!
The reason why the floating city needs to be designed and built by the wizard himself is precisely this; secrecy is only a minor issue.
The compatibility of different spell factions is only the design challenge; the construction of a floating city is even more difficult, as it involves not only a lot of complex elements but also incredibly sophisticated ones!
It is an absolute test of the wizard's own alchemy skills.
However, the advantages are also quite obvious. Because it was built by the wizard himself, and with a series of spells and rituals that added [mystery] and signed contracts, the connection between the floating city and the wizard is very close. In addition, each floating city has a super strong spatial teleportation ability. Basically, you can summon the floating city instantly from anywhere!
The mobility of the floating city lies precisely in this aspect, rather than simply in its ability to fly.
Floating cities are not such inconvenient things.
Getting back to the point, with the floating city being so powerful, Isaac naturally has to put in some effort, otherwise all his cheat codes would be wasted.
So we still have to keep pushing for the top spot, but we have to change the way we do it. The sect isn't just about frontline missions; after all, they are wizards, highly intelligent people!
Aside from individual combat strength, each high-level wizard also possesses super productivity, and some even have their own production lines!
With such a huge advantage, there's no reason not to make the most of it, otherwise how are we going to fight against those puppeteers of the Cult of Machine God?
Therefore, in addition to combat missions, the sect also has many production missions, and the contribution they give is no less than that of combat missions.
On the other hand, continuing the mission...
This is because the war between the Flesh and Blood Cult and the Mechanicus did not end with the departure of Isaac, this little bastard. On the contrary, the mission he completed before leaving greatly intensified the war!
Because Isaac's sacrifice completely erased the defenses of the Chaotic Sky Sea from the map, the Mechanicus needed to deploy more wizards to garrison there. With the increased troop strength here, the troop strength in other places would inevitably have to be reduced.
The Flesh and Blood Cult naturally wouldn't let this golden opportunity slip by, and immediately launched an even fiercer counterattack, achieving remarkable results in a short time!
However, the Cult of Mechanism is not to be trifled with either!
As a wizarding organization on par with the Cult of Flesh and Blood, its organizational structure is quite large. So large that although the Cult of Flesh and Blood achieved considerable success in a short period of time, it did not cripple the Cult of Mechanism.
Of course, although there was no serious injury, it was still embarrassing!
A tree lives by its bark, and a person lives by their reputation!
Having suffered such a great loss, the Cult of Machines was naturally not going to let it go, and immediately launched an even fiercer counterattack!
As it escalated its efforts, the Flesh and Blood Cult, which already held a significant advantage, also escalated its efforts in response, further intensifying the war!
Under such dire circumstances, the Flesh Cult would only mobilize more wizards to participate in the war, leaving no one idle, so the mandatory missions came one after another.
Fortunately, the sect took Isaac's concerns into account and assigned him mostly production tasks, such as potion making and monster crafting.
Most of the few combat missions he undertakes are not very difficult, and he can complete them smoothly simply by sending out his familiars.
And so, amidst the busy days, Isaac's moving plan proceeded smoothly.
Time passed slowly, and just as Isaac had completed all the preparations for moving and was only waiting to relocate the mage tower, a peculiar task was delivered to him...
"Break the spell?"
Mage Tower Study
Isaac looked curiously at the parchment in his hand. This mission from the cult was rather peculiar; it was to break the magic of the Cult of Machines...
How could something like this happen to him?
Of course, it's not that he can't do it. In fact, Isaac, who possesses the [Analysis] ability, is very good at this kind of thing, even better than some fourth-tier wizards!
But they are only fourth-tier wizards, and only a portion of them.
It's important to understand that from the very beginning of this war, the task of breaking the enemy's magic was always handled by a single fifth-tier wizard, and the same was true for the Cult of Machines. There was simply no chance for a nobody like Isaac to even get a chance to appear.
but now……
Looking at the parchment in his hand, Isaac summoned the cult's spellbook with great interest, stuck the parchment on it, and with a flash of blood-red magical light, a blood-red page appeared in front of Isaac, full of twisted demonic script!
In that instant, Isaac knew why he had been called here...
We're in the same industry!
Chapter 257 A Search That Was Never Found, Yet It Came Without Any Effort (3000)
Both being organizations of legendary wizards, the Flesh Cult has mad wizards, and so does the Mechanicus Cult.
Ultimately, while mad witches are dangerous, there's one undeniable truth—they are all geniuses!
And he's a genius among geniuses!
After all, without some skill, one cannot survive in the battle against the Outer Gods.
Most importantly, in the war between wizarding organizations, mad wizards are the most unique existence!
As a group of highly intelligent people, wizards' wars are not like knights' head-on clashes. Of course, there are head-on clashes, but not many. More often, it is a matter of countering each other's moves, with one side taking turns to take the stage, depending on which side has the better ability to crack and counter the cracks.
In this kind of warfare, the mad witch who possesses a great deal of Outer God power and knowledge becomes the most special one!
Because their "weapons" were covered in excrement!
Nobody wants to touch that thing, and if you don't touch it, there's no way to talk about a solution.
This is why this task ended up on Isaac's desk.
Even powerful fifth-tier wizards, who are as strong as demigods, are unwilling to touch upon the knowledge of Outer Gods. Although they are not afraid of Outer Gods, they find them disgusting!
Although Isaac didn't quite understand why the Outer God's power was so disgusting, apart from the danger of the Outer God's power, he felt that in other aspects it was no different from normal magic.
However, Isaac, a third-tier cricket, naturally couldn't fathom the thoughts of a fifth-tier expert, nor did he want to. In any case, this was a good thing for him, as the contribution value of this kind of mission was extremely high.
After all, only a mad witch can do it, and a mad witch...
To be honest, while there are quite a few in the Cult of Flesh and Blood, even one or two at the fourth or fifth rank, those big shots might not really be interested in this. After all, the reward might be very generous for an ordinary wizard, but for a mad wizard...
It's nothing special, might as well take a gamble with the Outer God.
Of course, Isaac overlooked another problem at this moment, which was...
Not all mad witches are like him, able to obtain the power of the Outer Gods so easily, even if it's just a normal transaction!
Therefore, when Isaac opened the spellbook, he was surprised to find that several mad witches had already shared their opinions in the specially created communication channel...
One of them was even a fourth-tier miracle wizard!
Looking at the image of the miracle wizard, Isaac scratched his head in surprise. He seemed to... still not understand the mad wizard well enough... He's already at the fourth rank, how come he's still doing so poorly?
To be fair, if Isaac were already at Tier 4, he would never do this kind of mission. He would just rush onto the battlefield and kill that guy, and everything would be fine!
After all, the mad wizard active on the battlefield at this time was only a third-level high-level wizard. He was feared by other wizards because of the power from the Outer God, but to the mad wizards, he was nothing special.
Do you have poop on you?
Sorry, buddy, I have more shit on me than you do!
Shaking his head, Isaac glanced at the insights posted by others and then focused his attention on the data from the cult.
As a high wizard, Isaac also had his own pride, and he would not let the opinions of others taint his own thoughts before he began his formal work.
When Isaac focused his attention on the data, a glint appeared in his eyes, and he quickly got into work mode, his previously nonchalant expression gradually becoming serious.
This guy's magic itself isn't anything special; it just creates a rather unique construct. Inside this construct is a furnace that can instantly incinerate all matter into a violent and twisted alien divine power.
Then it was launched using the properties of a magic cannon!
The most troublesome aspect lies in this alien divine power. This energy has a strong corrosive and corrupting ability, capable of dismantling many spells, making it very difficult to deal with in a decisive battle.
Most importantly, the other side had obviously also considered the dimensional world of the Cult of Flesh and Blood. Unlike Isaac's dimensional world, which had already been treated as a dumping ground, regardless of the God of Blood and Bone's own thoughts, the fact that the Cult of Flesh and Blood was its stronghold alone meant that this dimensional world could not be treated as a dumping ground.
Furthermore, no one knows if there's anything sinister hidden within this divine power. If you absorb too much, someone might usurp your place, and then you'll suffer a great loss.
but……
For Isaac, solving this problem is not difficult, and he doesn't need to risk absorbing these alien powers into his own dimensional world.
Based on the current data, Isaac found two ways to break the spell. The first is simple: find the source of this alien power and obtain a higher level of power from it.
A magical girl who lost her bear said this: "Mystery will yield to a higher mystery!"
For Isaac, the biggest challenge of this method was not the ritual itself, but how to find that Outer God. After all, there were so many Outer Gods, and he might not know who that one was.
However, there's no need to consider that, because this person's identity has already been discovered by the other wizards in the sect—the alien god Grimmius.
A rare mechanical-type star god.
However, compared to obtaining power from this one, Isaac, who had become increasingly picky about the power of the Outer Gods, preferred the second method—fighting fire with fire!
Isn't his alien divine power very corrosive and difficult to clean?
Then I'll create an energy source that's even more corrosive and harder to clean up!
