“The intelligence agency’s analyzing spirit welcomes you. My master”
A mechanical voice came from inside the tower. Since the Cliff Magic Tower had a new owner, everything went into default mode. The master was simply referred to as “my master.”
“An analyzing spirit!” This could only mean one thing. Wizard Cliff connected all the information that the Wizard Intelligence Agency had to his own tower spirit. He was spying on many, many people’s deepest, darkest secrets.
There was something else that Abel didn’t know about. Wizard Cliff had another magic tower at another location. While the one he was at was for protecting the intelligence agency, the one over there was where Wizard Cliff ran his main operations.
It all had to do with how powerful Wizard Cliff was. Once Wizard Dunn went to shut himself down for training, there was no one to challenge Wizard Cliff’s decisions. In fact, during the time that he became the dominant force that ruled over the St. Ellis Wizard Union, he had pretty much rid himself of all opposition within the organization. Abel didn’t care about all of that, though. He just wanted a nice tower spirit for himself. From what he could tell, the tower spirit that Wizard Cliff had must be extremely intelligent. Now that he had ownership over it, he might as well just act like it.
“Requesting permission. The tower wants to connect to your psyche.”
“Permission granted,” Abel said without hesitation. It was his first time doing this, but he knew that the tower spirit wouldn’t try to hurt its master.
When Abel’s power of Will was connected to the tower’s operation circle, he started to sense everything inside the tower. Countless data flashed before his eyes. He could see every damage that the tower had taken.
There was one thing he noticed. Since the base of the tower had left the ground, the energy circle on its base couldn’t absorb mana from the ground. Every mana that was used to keep the mana circle running was from the perfect gemstones on the operation circle.
“Close down the barrier circle! Shut down all the defense!” Abel said to the tower defense.
Right now, four perfect gemstones were used to power up the six main operation circles in the magic tower. There were slots for six of them, but Wizard Cliff was too stingy to fill in all the spaces. Abel might not have had a good look at Wizard Cliff’s portal bag yet, but he knew that that was more than ten perfect gemstones inside.
With his “telekinesis” spell, Abel replaced the six slots with his perfect gemstones. Once he did so, he thought that there was no time for him to look around too much. The tower was his now, so he could always go back in the future and have a better look inside it. The important thing for him now was to move the magic tower to somewhere that was safe.
But where? The Horadric Cube was too small. So was the personal storage box. There was a lot of room inside the kong kong spiritual beast bag, but that wasn’t enough, either. It was no different for his portal bag and portal bracelet.
Well, there was the portal beast ring, something that he got from the heir of Jocherg City. There was basically a mini world that was inside of it. Even White Cloud could do a full-body stretch while inside. There was a problem, though. If it wasn’t a summoned creature, he couldn’t put anything inside the portal beast ring.
Before that, Abel decided to teleport outside the magic tower. He wanted to see how his summoned creatures were doing.
“Johnson! Come over here!” Abel screamed at Johnson, who was digging through the ground with its massive hands. Once it heard his call, it stopped what it’s doing and came over.
“Go there,” Abel pointed to the tilted magic tower, “Try to pick that up.”
And off Johnson went. It was ten meters tall, but compared to the 50-meter tall magic tower, it was like an ant that was trying to lift a stone. Its arms hugged around the magic tower. As it did this, its arms extended and wrapped around the magic tower. While the tower was hollow on the inside, it was still a bit too heavy for it to lift off the ground.
“Use your ability!” Abel instructed.With its head tilted to the side, the multi-surfaced metal spheres on Johnson’s body separated and surrounded the magic tower. Then, a white light started flashing out of its head.
Abel heard a voice coming from the magic tower, “The tower has detected an intruder. Should the defense barrier be opened?”
“No!” Abel commanded, and the tower spirit became silent.
Johnson was trying to turn the magic tower into a part of its body. By doing this, it was now a 50-meter tall monster. Because of how heavy the tower was, it had to form wheels with the multi-surfaced metal spheres on its feet.
After Johnson did what Abel told it to do, he now had to see if he could fit it inside his portal beast ring. He tried to open up the ring with his power of the Will. Then, a 50-meter tall black hole appeared in the air. Johnson started rolling towards it. It was very slow when it was doing this.
Since Abel was expending his power of Will under his buff, he already started to feel the fatigue at two times the normal rate. He was starting to feel very exhausted. “Hurry up, Johnson!” Abel screamed as sweats started falling down his cheek. Johnson tried to go faster, but that didn’t help too much. If it wasn’t for the metal spheres, it’d be impossible for it to move around with a magic tower on its body.
When Abel’s power of Will was about to be completely drained, he took out a soul potion from his snake’s self-recover belt. About more than half of his power of the Will was recovered.
Right now, about half of Johnson’s body was inside the black hole. Once Abel was done, he could bring the magic tower with him anywhere he went. All the materials inside the magic tower were his to use, including the tower spirit and the mourning stone.
