Chapter 481: Return

Ace didn’t pay it much mind. The so-called Space Will didn’t possess actual wisdom; it was closer to an instinct. However, since he was the creator of this space, and the Space Will was still immature, he might as well transform it into the form he desired.

Just as in the “Fantasia” dream world, he sent a clone deep into the bottom layer of the space, creating a copy of the dream magic computer “Initial Light”—a somewhat clumsy magic computer—to serve as the best tool for the clone, replacing the Space Will.

Subsequently, Ace held up an Elemental Orb high, defining the order within the entire space. Under the effect of the orb, the surging, ubiquitous fluid slowly transformed into various substances. Ace’s mental imagery world expanded violently, manifesting instantly as a phantom image covering the interior of the space.

“I say, let there be an Earth Center, standing at the very center of the space.”

Various soil qualities condensed and gathered continuously. A hot core, various soils and stones on the outside—a huge sphere occupying nearly one-quarter of the alien dimension’s interior appeared. The core of this sphere was composed of Combustible Earth and was already burning with extremely high temperature.

The surface of the sphere was composed of Combustible Earth, Mercurial Earth, and Vitreous Earth, appearing pitted and uneven.

“I say, since the Earth Center is formed, let there be living water and air.”

In an instant, thin air appeared and gradually thickened. A large amount of dark clouds covered the Earth Center, and rain poured down in torrents.

The rain came fast and fierce, lasting for nearly a day. Looking at the surface of the Earth Center again, more than half of it was already covered by water.

Ace nodded with satisfaction. He snapped his fingers, and the sun and moon of the mental imagery world were gradually projected into the alien dimension, gathering a large amount of light and heat.

“This will have to do for now. If I want to construct them completely, I’m afraid I’ll need Noble Phantasm-level Sun Projection and Moon Projection. That would consume too much of me. I’ll construct usable ones first and upgrade them later when I have enough resources.”

As Ace’s voice fell, the sun and moon of the alien dimension stabilized, though they remained somewhat hazy. The diffuse dream mist clung to the inner side of the Spatial Crystal Wall, gradually revealing thousands of phantom stars.

The entire alien dimension was wrapped by three layers of crystal walls. The outermost layer was the sturdy Guardian Crystal Wall, possessing extremely strong defensive power. The middle was the Spatial Crystal Wall; precisely because of the Spatial Crystal Wall, the space inside could expand continuously, far exceeding the size observed from outside the alien dimension. The innermost layer was the Dream Crystal Wall, which could confuse intruders and construct a virtual starry sky simultaneously, making the alien dimension look infinite inside.

Inside the space, it was composed of three celestial bodies: the Spatial Earth Center, the Spatial Sun, and the Spatial Moon. The Earth Center was somewhat desolate but basically complete.

The surface area of the entire Earth Center was about the size of half the Salia Region, half land and half ocean.

Floating above the Earth Center, Ace said with gratification: “Finally, the main body of the shelter is built. Now, as long as I inscribe a Teleportation Array here, it will be considered a complete success. The remaining pioneering and construction will be left to the High Tower wizards.”

As for how to build this world in secret, Ace already had an idea.

One day later, Ace returned to Thoth City-State. He had left the city-state for nearly a year. In the “Fantasia” dream world, five years had passed.

Most of the wizards’ strength had reached the peak of their reality strength, and individual wizards even experienced a higher-level state in advance here.

City of True Knowledge, Magic Council Headquarters.

The thin Luther wore a well-fitting blue magic robe with gold trim, a white magic top hat on his head, and a 1-Ring Hexagram Badge pinned to his chest, shining brightly.

A long-bearded native old wizard held Luther’s hand and said with some emotion: “Luther, you are one of the most talented wizards I have ever seen. In just five years, you have grown from a junior wizard apprentice to an Official Wizard. Your future is limitless. From today on, you are an official member of the Magic Council!”

Luther also looked excited. He had just experienced the process of a Level 1 Life promotion under the promotion ritual of the Magic Council and truly constructed a 1-Ring Spell Model in the “Fantasia” world. Such an experience was simply incredible.

In the real world, Luther’s mental scale was only just three marks, but here, he had successfully advanced to an Official Wizard once.

“Maybe I can die once in the future and experience the feeling of promotion again.”

As soon as his voice fell, a light screen forcibly popped up in front of Luther, and one-tenth of his fantasy points were rapidly deducted.

“What did you say?” the old wizard asked with some confusion.

Luther smiled awkwardly and shook the old wizard’s hand tightly: “No, nothing. Thank you for your help over the past five years. I will trouble you more in the future.”

Just as the two were exchanging pleasantries, Bruce crawled into the Magic Council headquarters hall covered in blood. His appearance was extremely miserable: one arm was broken, his legs were bent, and from a distance, he looked like a wriggling worm.

Luther smelled the blood, looked back subconsciously, was shocked, and rushed over: “Mr. Bruce, what happened? Are you okay?”

Bruce raised his head, glanced at Luther, and hit the ground with a thud again, saying weakly:

“Luther, I was ambushed by damn vampires. That hateful woman actually led two Vampire Barons to ambush me in the Delat Kingdom. Luckily I brought a Teleportation Stone; otherwise, I couldn’t have returned to the City of True Knowledge alive.

“Help me contact Eva and Allen. I must take revenge!”

Hearing this, Luther was also burning with anger. A wizard was actually ambushed by vampires? This was simply a rebellion. In the dream world, wizards could be said to be the dominant force. The so-called vampires were just accidental products of the 3-Ring Wizard Caroso’s research. He didn’t expect them to be rampant to this extent.

“I’ll contact Allen and Eva immediately. Take me with you for revenge. I have become a 1-Ring Wizard here.”

Hearing Luther’s words, Bruce was also greatly surprised. Supported by Luther, he found a chair and sat down. The staff of the Magic Council had already begun to ask him for details. Because of the regulations of “Fantasia,” the six major forces of the City of True Knowledge would not interfere or help the actions of Dreamwalkers, so Bruce could not obtain direct help from the Magic Council.

“Luther, you are indeed a genius. Although your mana affinity is average, your combat talent and mathematical talent are too strong. As long as you progress steadily, you have a good chance of promotion in the real world too.”

Bruce ignored how miserable he was and turned to praise Luther.

Luther smiled somewhat embarrassedly. Using the Attribute Panel, he quickly contacted Allen and Eva. The four first sent Bruce to the Dream God Temple. Under Ace’s statue, they spent some fantasy points to completely repair Bruce’s body.

Allen opened a Space Door and said to everyone: “Let’s talk in detail in my Dream Space. It’s the safest there.”
