End of the Magic Era Chapter 1270

Chapter 1270

During the peak of the Magic Era, a powerful mage that gained the friendship of a Golden Crown Snake discovered that secret. Golden Crown Snakes devoured poison, or it would be more accurate to say that they devoured all harmful elements.

Golden Crown Snakes devoured things detrimental to planes, and thus displayed natural toxins.

Therefore, it was better for Golden Crown Snakes to be left alive. Bane obtained that information when he conquered the Undead Plane. At the time, Noscent’s mana was already dissipating and some people wanted to lure the Golden Crown Snakes into returning to Noscent. Unfortunately, it was already useless.

Lin Yun would first befriend the Golden Crown Snake, and once his Natural Demiplane matured to a certain degree, he would persuade the Rikk to settle in his Demiplane. When the time came, unless the Demiplane was destroyed by a disaster, there wouldn’t be a problem.

Returning from a rewarding trip, Lin Yun led everyone out of this collapsing small plane. Due to Rikk forcibly leaving, the small plane ended up being on the verge of collapse.

Lin Yun left the plane once he finished transplanting the Poisonous Dragon Grass.

He had originally planned on casually destroying the Viper Bandits while rescuing the young Bojinsen, but ended up discovering something unexpected and thus brought out a lot of subordinates.

It ended up being very rewarding. Obtaining the friendship of Golden Crown Snake Rikk was comparable to getting the friendship of the Golden Crown Snake Clan. After all, their race not only had a very long lifespan, they had extremely high intelligence and were very powerful. Rikk might be at level 46, but he could get rid of hundreds of Heaven Mages at the same level.

A living Golden Crown Snake could raze any territory of the Odin Kingdom to the ground in less than ten days with their huge body. If a Golden Crown Snake painstakingly released toxins, they could create a land of death spanning over a hundred kilometers in a few minutes.

After leaving the plane, Lin Yun felt the Planar Path collapse behind him. This meant that the plane had already collapsed just because Rikk had been a little forceful when exiting, it was quite frightening. Rikk would definitely cause an earthquake if his tail hit the floor.

He could cross through space without needing to use a Planar Path, and his huge and powerful body was a deterring force on its own.

After all, even if there was only a few Golden Crown Snakes in that immense Undead Plane, Undead Monarchs didn’t dare to provoke them. Their bodies could easily reach over several hundred meters in thickness and dozens of kilometers in length, numbers didn’t matter against them, a slight move was enough to crush a few millions Undeads.

The Viper Bandits’ camp was already in ruins by the time they returned. The mage army was commanding the puppet army to loot the place. The Viper Bandits ended up just like the Death Sickle Bandits.

The Death Sickle bandit group was run by direct members of the Rodney Family while the Viper bandit group only used the name of the Rodney Family and weren’t under their control. They paid protection fees so that the Rodney Family wouldn’t act against them, and naturally, if the Rodney Family had any dirty work to take care of, the Viper Bandits would be taking care of it.

There was a lot of loot, including a large amount of Platinum Rock which should have been stolen from the Bojinsen family.

These things were all moved into Lin Yun’s Demiplane. The added wealth was equivalent to the income of the Gilded Rose for half a month, this was terrifying. After all, the Gilded Rose already held the greatest share of the Andlusa Kingdom’s market. Moreover, the revenues from the stores in the Odin Kingdom could compare to some medium-sized families.

Lin Yun didn’t focus on these things and instead went to check on the young Bojinsen, only to hear Xiuban threatening him.

“… If not for the fact that your waist isn’t as thick as my arm and that there is barely any meat on your bones, I would have already roasted you.

“Kid, you are lucky that Sir Merlin is kindhearted. If it was up to this Lord Xiuban, I would have gotten rid of you after dealing with the Viper Bandits. You guys actually dared to stop supplying us, you are really a lot more daring than that Viper…”

When Lin Yun arrived, that fifteen years old Bojinsen was already pale from fear, sitting stiffly on a chair and shivering as he watched Xiuban emitting a terrifying aura.

He had only been locked after being captured by the Viper Bandits, and these uncultured bandits would at most threaten to kill or torture him. It definitely couldn’t compare to being roasted and eaten by a Beastman.

Seeing Lin Yun arrive, Xiuban’s sinister smile instantly disappeared and he walked to Lin Yun’s side with a calm expression.

“Sir Merlin, I already rescued and gave a lesson to that kid. These guys actually dared to stop supplying us, they are truly courting death…

“I was just scaring him, I definitely wouldn’t have eaten him, he is too dirty and as thin as a woman, his meat definitely wouldn’t taste good…”

It would have been better if Xiuban didn’t explain, the young Bojinsen let out a frightened shriek as he heard those words and became even more convinced that Xiuban wanted to cook him.

“Silence!” Xiuban shouted at the young Bojinsen.

The young Bojinsen immediately covered his mouth, but his face was already devoid of color and only endless fear remained in his eyes.

Lin Yun casually glanced at the hungry-looking young Bojinsen and made sure that he wasn’t injured.

“Let’s go, Young Bojinsen, I’ll bring you home.”

As he heard Lin Yun’s voice, the shaking legs of the young Bojinsen instantly became filled with power as he hopped behind Lin Yun, seemingly thinking that this was the safest location.

As he brought the young Bojinsen out of his room, the young kid saw the scene outside. Only corpses remained of those insufferably arrogants Viper Bandits, and not a single one was intact. Those puppets only knew how to effectively get rid of their enemies and didn’t care about anything else.

Seeing the piled bodies, the young Bojinsen’s legs almost gave up. His talents could be considered not bad as he was already a Mage at 15, however, any of these bandits could easily snap his neck.

But the bandits he had been afraid of encountered even more powerful existences which were now casually throwing their corpses aside.

An eight-meter-wide Planar Path opened in the center of the bandit camp and the puppets were disappearing into it with the loot.

The puppets’ blood-stained bodies were lined up into a long line that rapidly moved into the Planar Path.

The young Bojinsen was shocked as he looked at those powerful puppets, the burnt ruins, and the corpses of the bandits. The strongest force he had ever seen couldn’t compare with those several thousand level 35 and above puppets.

The pressure emitted by the puppets made it hard for him to breathe. The fifty mages came over once the puppets disappeared and the temperature rose. It was like a terrifying flaming giant was formed when the fifty mages stood together.

They walked up to Lin Yun and Kurumu stepped forward.

“Sir Merlin, the mission has been completed. Everything within 30 kilometers has been burnt to the ground. Aside from the thirteen bandits out on a mission, all the bandits have been confirmed dead. Of those thirteen bandits, one is an Expert Swordsman while the rest are Great Swordsmen, do we hunt them down?”

Lin Yun shook his head.

“There is no need, it should be fine to release a bounty after returning, 10,000 purple golds for each of them. I’m sure it won’t take long for their heads to be delivered to the Gilded Rose.”

Kurumu stayed silent and casually glanced at the young Bojinsen next to Lin Yun. The young Bojinsen’s face instantly turned red as he felt as if he had fallen in a sea of flames.

But it didn’t last long, his complexion eased up once Kurumu led the mage army through the Planar Path.

Fear could be seen in the young Bojinsen’s eyes as he watched the mage army disappear into the Planar Path.

‘Terrifying, these people are too scary. There are several thousand puppets comparable to Sword Saints, no, more than that… And none of those puppets seem to be below level 35…

‘And that fire mage… I felt like I was about to burn with just one glance, just like when father is angry at me. Are the fifty of them Heaven Mages?

‘There is also that Beastman, he is the strongest person I have ever seen. Even Viper wasn’t as fierce as him… But the most terrifying one is definitely their master.

‘I can’t feel the existence of that young man when closing my eyes, and my mana instinctively avoids him. He feels like the center of the world just by standing there, he is definitely a lot more powerful than father, no, he is even more powerful than the person I saw last time, my mana wasn’t afraid of that person back then…’

The young Bojinsen was deeply shaken, this was the most shocking event in his life.

Only Reina and Xiuban remained once the mages entered the Demiplane.

Lin Yun had sent Pabiete back to oversee the Gilded Rose. With Pabiete keeping watch, he wouldn’t have to worry about someone causing trouble. Pabiete had a logical thinking, he wouldn’t be swayed by emotions if someone caused trouble. If they dared to resist, he would just kill them.

After opening a Spatial Door, he led Xiuban, Reina, and the young Bojinsen back to the Bojinsen Family.

Seeing as the young Bojinsen came back in one piece, Patriarch Bojinsen sighed in relief.

“Sir Mafa, thank you very much for your help. Our Bojinsen Family will immediately supply the Platinum Rocks the Gilded Rose need. Our family will also make up for the previously missing Platinum Rocks.”

Lin Yun didn’t speak, he knew that what the Bojinsen Patriarch meant was that they would supply Platinum Rocks to the Gilded Rose, while also supplying the Rodney Family.

Xiuban, who was standing behind Lin Yun, rebuked him with a smirk, “Old man, even this great Lord Xiuban can see through your clumsy lie, are you still trying to cheat Sir Merlin?”

The young Bojinsen’s face turned pale as a sheet of paper when he saw Xiuban’s hungry expression and he promptly pulled his father to a side room.

“Father, are you insane? This incident is clearly linked to the Rodney Family, don’t tell me you still want to supply Platinum Rocks to the Rodney Family?

“Do you think they would remain satisfied if you keep supplying them with Platinum Rocks? Neither the Rodney Family nor the Gilded Rose will be pleased.

“By trying to express goodwill to both sides, you’ll end up offending them both. But there is no excuse for the Rodney Family’s evil trick, if we have to choose, we can only choose the Gilded Rose.

“You don’t know how terrifying the Gilded Rose is. The Viper Bandits’ camp was thoroughly destroyed in less than an hour, that poison fog and everything within thirty kilometers were turned to ashes.

“They have several thousand puppets stronger than the Sword Saints of our family and fifty Heaven Fire Mages. They are just too scary. Father, they are even scarier than the Rodney Family…”

Dread flickered in the eyes of the young Bojinsen, while Patriarch Bojinsen’s face became deathly white.

‘Using several thousand Sword Saints and a few dozen Heaven Mages to destroy a bandit camp… Just how powerful is the Gilded Rose?

‘It was also said that that notorious Necromancer was almost killed by a Heaven Puppet of the Gilded Rose…

‘The Gilded Rose has only exposed one Heaven Puppet and two Heaven Mages who became guards in order to atone for their sins… The Heaven Rank powerhouses of the Gilded Rose have yet to appear…’

Patriarch Bojinsen no longer struggled after hearing the words of his son, he gritted his teeth and walked back into the room.

“Sir Merlin, our Bojinsen Family is willing to give you a stable long term supply of Platinum Rocks, we will also blacklist the Rodney Family.”

With these words, the Bojinsen Family thoroughly gave in. This decision also forced them to rely on the Gilded Rose.

Lin Yun nodded.

“Good, you don’t need to worry about anything else, you just need to supply the materials.”

Patriarch Bojinsen sighed in relief when he heard those words. He then discovered that his back was drenched in cold sweat.

The Bojinsen Family had been holding the biggest supply of Platinum Rocks within the Odin Kingdom for so many years but they could only be considered a 3rd rate force. They had been able to keep developing so far because they kept supplying Platinum Rocks to other forces according to their strength while the forces kept themselves in check. They managed to make it to this day because they were the only one with a stable supply of Platinum Rocks.

After getting hold of the supplies once again, Lin Yun left with his group.

He wasn’t worried about the follow-up. The Rodney Family would have already acted if they were daring enough to to attack the Bojinsen Family, they wouldn’t have been waiting until now. They had just been threatening the Bojinsen Family to not sell to the Gilded Rose this time, but they didn’t affect the supplies of other forces.

Thus, none of these forces intervened, but the Rodney Family’s actions made quite a few of these forces unhappy.

After all, the Gilded Rose might be the one blacklisted today, but it could be the Gilded Lily the next day, and the Silvered Redbud the day after that.

The hideout of the Viper Bandits was burned to the ground, everything within a few dozen kilometers was turned to ashes and even the poison fog completely disappeared. As for the remaining dozen bandits, their heads became even more expensive than heads made of purple golds and it took less than three days for heads to be traded for their reward.

The Rodney Family couldn’t make a move, and no matter how many benefits they gave to other forces, no one dared to get involved.

The Viper Bandits and the Death Sickle Bandits’ corpses weren’t even cold yet, no, they couldn’t even be found, who wanted to throw away their lives?

The Bojinsen Family remained safe, no one dared to make a move against them. The Gilded Rose show of strength had been enough to alert many large forces, while the smaller forces definitely didn’t want to provoke the Gilded Rose.

Half a month passed and everything seemed to have stabilized. There had been no movement from the Rodney Family and the Gilded Rose released a new antidote as a flagship product. It was also the Gilded Rose best first-rate product.

It was an antidote known as Golden Crown Potion, using newly cultivated Golden Crown Grass as their main ingredient.

Although the compounding difficulty was only that of a True Spirit Potion, its effect was a lot better than any True Spirit Antidote on the market. It could even cleanse the poison of a poisoned Heaven Rank powerhouse, and they wouldn’t feel any weakness afterward.

After all, being poisoned during an exploration or hunt would result in the mission failing. Even if they could quickly remove the poison, the weakness felt afterwards would last for a long time. Many powerhouses didn’t die from being poisoned, but from the after-effects.

The business of the Gilded Rose sharply rose up with the emergence of the Golden Crown Potion. Although very few people could afford to buy the Golden Crown Potion, the influence it brought sharply increased the sales of the Gilded Rose by 40% and the Gilded Rose’s marketplace had to expand by 40% for several days.

While the Gilded Rose was developing in full swing, the Rodney Family’s meeting room was filled with murderous aura. Wilder was sitting in the seat of honor with a sinister expression and emitted an icy aura. Whenever his aura clashed, it would emit an unpleasant metallic sound.
