Chapter 436: Advancing to Senior First-circle! (1)

The journey back was much smoother. Levi and Leviathan traveled stealthily in the Deep Sea and finally returned to Black Fire Island safely.
“There were so many twists and turns on this journey. It wasn’t easy for me to become a pharmacist.” Levi sighed.
He took out Doug’s storage bag and looked through it.
First, it had 3,000 Aether Stones. Doug was indeed a weapon craftsman. Although he wasn’t really strong, he was very rich. To think he could save up so much after deducting his weapon-making expenses.
Then there were the common spellbooks, Meditation Arts, and casting materials of the Burning Faction. Levi took a look at them and determined that they were useless to him. After all, he had these things already. They were
basically the most widely circulated public spells.
Lastly, there was a large pile of various materials for weapon-making. Other than the common materials used for alchemy, such as brass, mithril, and Luminant gold, there were many others that he did not recognize. Most of them were from sea beasts.
The Endless Sea lacked the common materials that could be found in other Realms of Life, so the weapon craftsmen here developed a weapon-making system based on sea beast materials, adapting to local conditions.
“When the time comes, I can try to repair the Flaming Carpet. This Wizard Tool is also a life-saving weapon.” Levi thought.
Finally, there was the Book of Starforge Runes. This was an extremely rare weapon-making inheritance. Just like the Book of Cypher, it was a priceless treasure. Moreover, it sounded very powerful.
Other than all that, there was only one first-circle Wizard Tool left in Doug’s belongings. It was called the Burning Gloves, red-colored leather gloves with two Burning Faction’s first-circle spells engraved on them. The spells were the Burning Palm and the Fireball Technique, which were the most classic spells. The Burning Palm was also the prototype of the Seal of Flames.
Apart from that, wearing the gloves would allow one to gather the power of fire elements, thus increasing the power and casting speed of Burning Faction spells. It was similar to Levi’s Ring of Fire Snake’s Bracelet.
On the Burning Palm, the creator of the Wizard Tool was marked: Tower of Flames, Doug,
It seemed that this was the Wizard Tool that Doug had made for himself.
Before the other party died, he had used the gloves to cast the Fireball Technique on Levi.
Levi put them away for now, planning to use them after the storm passed.
Although he had killed a first-circle wizard, the other party was an accomplice of the dark wizard Claur. Moreover, given the chaos of Hot Wind City at that time, the Pan-Plane Wizard Council would definitely attribute the cause of Doug’s death to the war. No one would find out about him.
Levi stopped thinking about this matter. He flipped open the weapon-making inheritance book. On the title page of the book, there was a name: Starforge Wizard, Oz.
“What a high-end name. He must be at least a high-level wizard.” Levi muttered to himself.
He continued to read. As he had already studied the Book of Cypher and many of the arrays were similar to the weapon- making path, Levi could read the book with no hiccups.
After he roughly browsed through the inheritance, a notification popped up on the proficiency panel.
Levi quickly looked over and realized that he had already reached the rudiments of the weapon-making path.
[Weapon-making: Level 1 (23/1000)]
“So fast? It should be because I have a level 3 array and alchemy foundation. Arrays, alchemy, and weapon-making have some similarities and commonalities. Specializing in one will allow one to learn the other two and gain twice the result with half the effort. It’s the same logic as how the more breathing techniques I learn, the faster I can cultivate the breathing techniques that follow. If that’s the case, I’ll focus on arrays in the future, followed by alchemy, and lastly, weapon-making. I’ll prioritize arrays and cultivate the other two while I’m at it.
After roughly reading the introduction of the Book of Starforge Runes, Levi was quite shocked.
This book was somewhat different from what he had imagined. Oz was not the high-level wizard he had imagined. The other party was just an ordinary intermediate wizard with the bloodline of a foreign race. This foreign race was the Starforgers.
Although Levi was not a weapon craftsman, as an official wizard and an array wizard, he had some understanding of the way of weapon-making.
The conventional way of weapon-making was nothing more than constructing a spell model in the mind before solidifying the spell on the refined carrier to form the most basic Wizard Tool.
The more complicated the Wizard Tool, the more complicated the spell that had to be solidified. With more types of spells, different spells could be combined and linked. However, no matter how complicated and advanced a Wizard Tool was, the basic principles were similar.
In contrast, the weapon-making inheritance Oz left behind was somewhat different. In addition to the conventional spell-solidifying method, he also introduced something called the Rune Language.
This seemed to be a very ancient way of weapon-making. It originated from the Starforger Civilization in the Multidimensional Plane, and the Rune Language was a path created by the genius Oz himself. Oz was a wizard who had once traveled to the Starforger Civilization.
He had once followed his father, who was also a Starforger, to the Starforger Civilization. This civilization had once been extremely glorious, especially in the aspect of creating powerful equipment. Unfortunately, it did not last long. This civilization ultimately fell into the hands of a stronger civilization, and its legacy was severed.
The greatest reliance of the Starforger Civilization was their Language of Stars. It was said that the forgers of the Starforger Civilization could communicate with the stars and condense the power of the stars into their creations..
