A Wizard’s Secret

Merlin stayed in the first dimension that he had obtained in the boundless territory for three months.

In these three months, strange robots appeared throughout the dimension. They were mining robots, exploiting all types of special minerals including some elemental crystal stones.

The continuous loot is then accumulated in the empire-level warship, where Merlin instructed the Matrix to produce martial art robots at full steam. This was because the martial art robots were the foundation for him to control the dimensions.

After uninterrupted manufacturing, three martial art robots had been produced. Currently, Merlin had six martial art robots in addition to four statue guardians. In total, he had ten subordinates who were comparable to Great Legends.

However, bad news ensued.

“The core materials used to produce martial art robots are almost exhausted. We’re longer able to support the production of a complete martial arts robot. Master, please find more core materials for the martial arts robots.”

The Matrix transmitted this bad news to Merlin. Indeed, the Atlan civilization warship was extremely fearsome. It was able to produce martial art robots that were comparable to Great Legends ceaselessly.

Nonetheless, the materials needed to manufacture such powerful martial arts robots were extraordinary. Besides a huge amount of energy, Merlin also needed to prepare sufficient materials.

Unfortunately, the dimension occupied by Merlin did not have the core materials needed to manufacture martial arts robots.

However, this was not completely unforeseen. How could it be easy to obtain a material that was comparable to a Great Legend? Nevertheless, there was a silver lining. The warship could still produce mining robots, which could help search for the materials necessary to manufacture martial arts robots.

Besides this bit of unexpected news, Merlin spent his remaining time making use of the Dimension Origin to deepen his understanding of Fire Elements and Darkness Elements. His understanding was getting more profound. He could almost “touch” the essence of an ultimate Maxim.

However, he still could not break through this paper-thin barrier. Merlin knew that it was because his accumulation was still far from enough. After all, he was only a Great Wizard. Of course, it would not be easy to accomplish such a massive leap to consolidate an ultimate Maxim.

“Wizard Merlin, can we conquer the second dimension now?”

Wizard Franz, Ducas and the others had been asking a few times but were rejected by Merlin each time.

“Just the second dimension? That’s not enough. If we’re going to attack, we might as well join all the dimensions together. So, we must also conquer the third dimension. Do you know the specifics of these two dimensions?”

Merlin finally decided to attack. As long as they managed to join the dimensions into one, then the situation would be stabilized temporarily. Moreover, if Merlin had occupied three dimensions and gained further understanding from their Elemental Origins, he might be able to consolidate an ultimate Maxim and become an Honored Legend!

“Wizard Merlin, you want to conquer both dimensions at the same time? Nevertheless, we’ve collected information about these two dimensions over the past few days.”

Wizard Franz was well-prepared, so a smile appeared on his lips.

“The second dimension is occupied by a powerful existence from the Unihorn Tribe. The Unihorn Tribe is unique, and is attached to a powerful civilization. The strongest contenders in their tribe are only comparable to the Honored Legends, and there are only three of them in total. Therefore, the Unihorn Tribe lives a very low-key existence. After occupying the dimension, almost all traces of them had disappeared. They seldom appear in other places. According to our inquiries, their abilities should be around a two- or three-Maxim Legend.”

Merlin nodded. He had never heard about the Unihorn Tribe. There were too many foreign tribes in this vast Void Zone hence, it would be impossible for him to know all of them.

“What about the third dimension? Judging from your looks, it seems a little troublesome?”

Merlin gazed at Franz and the others. He could feel that upon mentioning the third dimension, all of them seem reluctant to speak up.

“Allow me to elucidate about the third dimension.”

The Wizard who spoke was Ducas. He glanced at Merlin and said, “The third dimension is nearest to the Gerva Dimension. Back then, the master of Gerva Dimension, Legend Gerva, attempted to occupy this dimension but he failed.”

“Failed?”

Merlin’s expression sobered. He knew that Gerva was a three-Maxim Legend. If even Wizard Gerva had failed, then the third dimension must be harboring someone equivalent to a four-Maxim Legend.

Anyone on par with a four-Maxim Legend would indeed be problematic. A four-Maxim Legend was not to be trifled with. Even in the boundless territory, a Wizard of such capabilities should possess a huge force, not merely occupy a single dimension.

Seemingly reading Merlin’s doubts, Ducas continued to speak, “Wizard Merlin, it’s not as bad as you may be thinking. The Wizard occupying the third dimension is a strong contender from the Giant Tribe. His name is Bonio, and his ability is comparable to a three-Maxim Legend. Perhaps, he’s slightly stronger than that, so Gerva didn’t manage to conquer the dimension. After so many years of silence, Bonio’s ownership is considered to be acquiesced.”

In the boundless territory, a three-Maxim Legend was considered a strong contender. After all, the Void Zone was very vast, and not everyone was in the boundless territory.

“Oh? If he’s only on par to a three-Legend Maxim, then it’s not such a big problem. I’ll go to the third dimension personally.”

Merlin thought about it and decided that he had to go to the third dimension himself. Otherwise, no one would be able to defeat Bonio.

“If Wizard Merlin is going to the third dimension, then we’ll go to the second dimension.”

Ducas said gallantly. They were excited to invade two dimensions at once.

Merlin shook his head. The Unihorn Tribe in the second dimension was still comparable to a two-Maxim Legend, and had the home-ground advantage. Therefore, Merlin was hesitant to leave the mission to just the four of them. Perhaps, the invasion might not be successful.

After some consideration, Merlin summoned the six martial arts robots and four statue guardians from his spatial ring.

Ten formidable auras were unleashed in an instant. Each of them was comparable to a Great Legend.

“Wizard Merlin, what is this?”

Franz and the others were extremely surprised as they witnessed the massive burst of aura. These were ten existences that were comparable to a Great Legend. Considering the boundless territory, this was a relatively big force.

“These are my minion puppets, each possessing the ability of a Great Legend. They’ll temporarily take orders from Wizard Ducas. You can bring them with you to the second dimension. Added with their numbers, you’ll have a total of fourteen Great Legends. It should be enough to conquer the second dimension.”

Merlin declared with confidence. After all, this was the base where he would build his huge force in the boundless territory.

“Haha, with these ten existences comparable to Great Legends, I promise we’ll bring back the second dimension.”

Ducas replied with equal confidence. There were a total of fourteen Great Legends, and he was a two-Maxim Great Legend. Regardless of what awaited them, they were more than prepared to confront the Unihorn Tribe in the second dimension.

“Good, let’s depart now!”

Merlin waved his hand and flew off first. He swiftly left the dimension and flew toward the third dimension. Meanwhile, Ducas and the others flew toward the second dimension.

…

“Swish.”

Merlin flew to the third dimension. Seeing the size of this dimension, he understood why Bonio, despite being a Giant comparable to a three-Maxim Legend, was dead-set on guarding this dimension.

There were countless dimensions in the Void Zone. Naturally, their sizes differed greatly as well as their characteristics. Every dimension contained distinctive features. Other than the Glorious Land and the Origin Dimension of other civilizations, there were also some special dimensions. However, it required an additional stroke of luck to occupy a dimension with special features.

Special dimensions were very rare. The most commonly seen feature was bigger dimensions. Naturally, the bigger dimensions were stronger than the smaller dimensions.

As a result, some of the powerful Legends would occupy especially big dimensions. This was because the Dimension Origin would be much stronger.

Some dimensions were more than ten times or a hundred times bigger than an average dimension. These kinds of dimensions were considered behemoth. Only existences such as Honored Legends and above were qualified to occupy them.

One example was the Lord God of Light from the Light God Organization. His dimension, the Light Dimension, was a behemoth dimension that was twenty times bigger than an average dimension. The number of living creatures constituted hundreds of billions. Simply by relying on the power of faith from this dimension, the gods in the Light God Organization could become extraordinarily powerful.

The third dimension before Merlin’s eyes right now was also very large, though not as big as ten times. It was perhaps three times bigger than an average dimension. Since Bonio managed to occupy this dimension, understandably, he would not want to leave.

“Bonio, come out!”

Merlin was not concerned about politeness. He went straight ahead, and his booming voice reverberated into the dimension.

“Boom.”

Suddenly, the dimension shook slightly. Next, a Giant appeared. This was a Giant King, an existence comparable to the Legendary Wizards among the Spell Casters.

Bonio was a relatively powerful lower rank Giant King. Nonetheless, it was very arduous to become a middle rank Giant King, so this dimension might be his only hope.

“Do you want to snatch this dimension?”

Upon seeing Merlin, Bonio seemed to be aware of his intention and asked with a snicker.

Merlin smiled. Giant Bonio was well-informed about the happenings in the other dimensions. Some time ago, Merlin had killed Wiem, and occupied his dimension, so he had not been exactly subtle. All the other nearby dimensions knew about the new developments.

“That’s right, Bonio. Your dimension is too near to Gerva Dimension. Back then, Gerva was being cautious, thus he did not snatch it. Now, so many years have passed, do you think you can still continue to occupy this dimension?”

Merlin looked behind Bonio. He could even see the dazzling radiance from Gerva Dimension as well as sense the familiar aura of a Maxim.

That was the Spell Caster civilization!

“Yes, this dimension is too near your Spell Caster civilization… Nevertheless, even after so many years, this dimension still belongs to me. That speaks of the Spell Casters’ incompetence! Come on, every Giant is a great warrior. We’re not afraid of battle!”

Giant Bonio began to snarl fiercely.
