Chapter 438: Chapter 437: Traction Lighthouse

“Star Realm Gate?” Ivan wondered in silence. Could it really be the Star Realm he was thinking of?

“Correct, it is the Star Realm you’re thinking of, also known as the Star Realm River,” Morris seemed to have seen through his doubt and provided a definite answer.

“However, we can’t get any closer ahead.” There was a protective layer, and they could only observe from a distance.

“I understand — I never even thought us sorcerers could explore the Star Realm.” Ivan had never considered getting close.

Compared to Danaila World, the Star Realm was boundless and vast. Correspondingly, the level of danger far exceeded that of Danaila World. The term “variegated” couldn’t be more fitting when used to describe the creatures of the Star Realm.

Their powers were bizarre and terrifying, not even recognized, and one’s slightest misstep could lead to death.

He would be foolish to get anywhere close to the Star Realm Gate.

“That statement is half right and half wrong. The construction of the Star Realm Gate is still immature; every opening depends on timing and requires a massive amount of space energy. Moreover, the gate can only maintain for a brief period and has many aspects that need improvements.” Morris shook his head slightly, then stared thoughtfully at Ivan.

“Don’t look at me. I couldn’t even recognize the Star Realm Gate, let alone imagine improving it. That’s something for the guild leaders to handle, not us. We’re not at that level,” Ivan knew what he meant and reflexively rejected the idea.

“Ivan, you’re being too modest.”

“It’s not about modesty; it’s about whether my capabilities are sufficient. The Star Realm is too far beyond us.”

“Okay, okay. But next time the Star Realm Gate opens, you must come. You might fish out some incredible treasures. Any gains from your exploration would be of substantial value.”

“Let’s talk about it next time.”

Facing Morris’s earnest persuasion to participate in exploring the Star Realm Gate, Ivan was entirely unmoved. He didn’t lack treasures, and it wasn’t worth the risk.

Upon seeing this, Morris didn’t press further but merely smiled to himself, seemingly privy to more information.

The trio then turned and left the area where the Star Realm Gate was situated.

Following that, Morris introduced other facilities, such as the Transmission Towers, Transmission Gates, Transmission Steeples. Anything related to teleportation invariably had flaws or weaknesses.

It was well known that the three main research directions of the School of Space were energy gathering, space structuring, and displacement.

Energy gathering included facilities like the Space-type particle pools and Great Space Energy Towers, signifying that this category of works had evolved maturely. Space structuring included Space Rings, Void Towers, secret realms, and sorcerer tower expansions, which could also be effectively utilized in practice.

However, ‘displacement’ had always been a tough challenge for the School of Space.

Ivan was familiar with some inventions from the East Capital Enchantment Guild, where Sorcerer Barney had developed the Flashing Token and Replacement Token. The former was highly unstable, akin to a death sentence.

The latter could set up tokens in advance to transfer a person, but only for a short distance of 300 meters.

What was more frustrating was that activating a token required some time and came with a terrifying energy consumption. A single use could deplete sixty to seventy percent of a Level 2 Sorcerer’s energy.

The larger the mass, the more energy consumed.

And for a Level 2 Sorcerer, 300 meters was merely the distance of a blink, trivial to a Level 3 Sorcerer.

This case clearly showed that sorcerers still had a long way to go in exploring spatial displacement.

“If you’re interested, you can directly apply to the Doradoli Chairman. He’d be glad to have you stay all day in the exploration area, tinkering with these things,” Seeing him examining the Transmission Towers and Transmission Steeples persistently, Morris suggested.

“Really?” Ivan was slightly surprised.

“Don’t you see your own achievements? Although inclined towards the School of Energy Shaping, when it involves the Witch’s Favor, you are truly unique among the younger generation.”

Morris said with emotion, then he thought of something and added, “By the way, be careful of attacks from the Alien Race. They have always disliked seeing genius talents from our human race. There were not a few who were disabled or killed in the past.”

“Disabled as well?”

“Do you know who the last one was? Tanaya Fitzgerald. She was so dazzling initially, but now, she’s hardly seen because she’s been frightened.”

“Fitzgerald, the family of the Void King?”

Seeing him slowly nod, Ivan didn’t know what to say.

The family of the Void King, which entails the existence of a Level 5 Sorcerer, arguably the most top-tier family in the sorcerer world; a scion of such a family was even incapacitated by an Alien Race.

Compared to them, he was merely a slightly larger shrimp. It seemed he really couldn’t afford to be the slightest bit careless or hopeful.

“In Sky Flow Valley, surely no Alien Race would dare to cause trouble. Let’s not talk about these disheartening matters; let me introduce you to another key tower. Behold, the ‘Traction Lighthouse.’”

Moments later, Morris broke the silence, leading him in front of an octagonal tower on the outer side.

The octagonal tower, which was seven stories high, gave Ivan the first impression that there were a lot of Crystal Balls.

At the tip of the steeple, there was a particularly large one, probably about six meters in diameter; under the eaves, angled upwards at every eighth corner, there were Crystal Balls about two meters in diameter.

Along the eaves, Crystal Balls were evenly spaced.

These Crystal Balls glowed in varying haloes but were placed so harmoniously that they were a feast for the eyes.

“A lighthouse, could it be for guiding direction?” Ivan guessed.

“It’s always refreshing to talk to a smart person. You’re right, the sole purpose of the Traction Lighthouse is to guide direction, helping those trapped in the Great Sky River find their way out, so they don’t get permanently lost,” Morris explained.

Entering the Great Sky River required waiting for a rare opportunity that came once every few decades. Even so, because the river was filled with chaotic space energy, it led to spatial and directional confusion, causing those who entered to easily lose their sense of direction, ultimately unable to find the right path to exit.

The Traction Lighthouse was meant to resolve this issue, serving as a beacon for sorcerers entering the Great Sky River.

“What a precious tower.” Ivan was full of admiration after listening.

“Indeed, ever since the Traction Lighthouse was constructed, fewer members of our School of Space have been lost in the Sky River, significantly improving our previously dire situation. Aside from our own people, others have sought to purchase ‘Light Orders’ from us to ensure their safety. Let me tell you–”

Morris was very familiar with the various facilities here, including the series of events surrounding them.

The Traction Lighthouse was no exception; he knew that many people exhausted all means to buy Light Orders, at great expense, and he casually mentioned it.

“Is the purpose of the Traction Lighthouse merely to prevent people from getting lost in the Great Sky River?” Ivan pondered for a moment before asking.

“I haven’t heard of any other uses; why, do you have any ideas?” Morris shook his head, then caught a hint of something else in Ivan’s inquiry, his eyes suddenly sparkling.

“Just asking, what ideas could I possibly have? You think I’m the Great Sage?” Ivan quickly changed the subject: “This is the Chaotic Space Pearl, including the method to create it, which I gift to you.”

He wasn’t a miser. As the saying goes, one good turn deserves another; he reciprocated the knowledge of the Pure White Tower with the ‘Chaotic Space Pearl.’

“Is this something you’ve recently researched?”

“You could say that.”

Morris’s attention was immediately captivated, and he unceremoniously took it to examine.
