The Lord of Ashes

Thain's understanding of underground creatures is naturally those underground monsters, demi-humans and other types of underground creatures.

Through his senior sister Fei'er's explanation, Thane learned that not only Modolon Island was rich in underground resources.

It turns out that in the entire Western Islands, there are naturally more underground resources here than in other places.

Beneath the vast surface, there is an equally vast underground space.

And these spaces are still in the shape of stairs.

Under the top level background of the wizarding world, although the underground resources closer to the surface will soon be plundered by the black magicians in the black domain.

But deep underground, new resources are produced every moment.

It is probably this model that contributed to the fact that although the Black Territory is barren, it can still barely develop.

If it were an ordinary medium or small plane, resources would be over-exploited like this.

Not to mention that the total amount of resources is declining year by year, and the entire plane is even going to fall apart.

In other words, the wizarding world is large enough and has a deep enough foundation to withstand such a group of black magicians dominating the northern part of the Western Islands, but it has not generally affected the overall development of the wizarding plane.

Mayfair was very familiar with Modolon Island. She and Thain stood close to each other on a metal disk. Under her guidance, the two of them arrived at the northern part of Modolon Island in the evening.

The place where the elder brother Zorro lives is on a hill that seems to be ordinary on the surface.

A short black magic tower stands in the shade of the hills.

As the sun sets in the west, the overall feeling is very dull and desolate.

This magic tower was built by Moses on Modolon Island. It was also the place where senior brother Zorro lived and studied with Moses during his apprenticeship.

I heard from senior sister Fei'er that senior brother has a lot of affection for this magic tower.

On the outskirts of the hills not far from this magic tower, there is a small resource point of hematite concentrate.

Martin, the third-level black magician, gave most of the income from this resource point to Zorro.

It does seem extremely generous, but in fact, this hematite concentrate originally belonged to Moses.

And this iron ore resource point was not allocated to Zorro for free.

In the end, at least two-thirds of the iron essence and other accompanying resources produced at the resource points will be converted into magic props and flow back into the hands of Martin and others.

In a place like the Black Domain, if you want to live well, everyone needs to play a certain role.

Senior brother Zorro is definitely the best among the black magicians of the same level who have just broken through the first level.

As a price, he must provide certain magic props for Martin and other black magician groups.

Possibly to give her senior brother a surprise, Mayfair was actually able to use the crystal ball to send a message in advance to inform the other party of Thane's arrival on Modolon Island, but Mayfair did not do so.

When a group of two people appeared in front of the eldest brother's magic tower and knocked on the door of the magic tower with the magic doorbell, Thain still felt a little excited in his heart.

"Is it Fei'er?"

"Didn't I already give you free access to this magic tower? Why..."

A burst of spiritual power came from the magic tower, and then, the closed door of the magic tower suddenly opened.

Zorro, who was wearing a gray mage robe, had a lot of white hair, and looked like a middle-aged man, appeared in front of the two of them.

Zoro's voice stopped abruptly when he saw Thane and Mayfair outside the magic tower.

Although Mayfair looked the oldest among the three present, she was the one who enlivened the atmosphere.

Mayfair's laughter finally brought Zoro back to his senses.

This normally steady and mature magician had a flash of excitement and joy in his eyes.

When they were in the city of Menzobra, they were the only three disciples of Mosobra who were alive at that time.

Magicians are a group of relatively homely individuals, and black magicians have developed their withdrawn personalities to the extreme.

Zorro has met many magicians over the years, but he has made almost no "friends".

On Modolon Island, apart from having more contact with several black magicians such as Martin and Joanne, the only one Zorro usually takes care of is Mayfair.

In short, this is a magician with a very narrow social circle.

Including the connections that Moshedo had accumulated in the Western Islands, Zorro has not inherited much yet.

However, other black magicians often come to ask Zorro to make magic equipment.

For this kind of situation, Zorro usually charges according to the market price.

The third-level black magician Martin provides protection, Zorro provides the skills, and those who come to the door provide the raw materials.

This mode of survival allowed Zorro to get to know many black magicians, but it was only limited to the most basic trading cooperation, not to mention a lot of favors.

On the second floor of this black dwarf magic tower, the three brothers and sisters sat around the stone table and talked about their experiences over the years.

Although this magic tower looks unremarkable from the outside, it even looks a bit old and dilapidated.

But the scene inside is not bad.

There are all kinds of magic equipment that Thain has seen and many that he has never seen before, and they are piled up on every floor of the entire magic tower.

Moses is an alchemy madman, so most of the items on display on the upper four floors and the three underground floors of the Magic Tower are alchemy equipment.

Zorro's magic tower seems to be shorter than Mayfair's, but the space inside is obviously larger.

The height of four floors says it all, not to mention that there are three floors below ground.

"This magic tower should have used spatial technology. The achievements of the mentor in the field of alchemy during his lifetime are not yet within our reach." Thain said with emotion as he looked at the magic towers around him.

At this time, Zorro was still immersed in the past events that Thain had just told.

Especially the time when Thane escaped from the underground and collected his mentor's ashes, Zorro's expression was obviously a bit hurt.

After hearing Thain's sigh, Zoro stood up and left.

When he emerged from downstairs again, he brought back a large number of magic books and alchemy notes.

"Junior brother, your talent in the field of alchemy is not inferior to mine. Your instructor also praised you many times."

"These magic books and alchemy notes were all left by my mentor back then."

"Especially those magic notes, many of which were written by the instructor himself, should be of great benefit to your alchemy growth." Zoro looked at Thain and said.

Zorro himself should have read these magic books and alchemy notes.

Magicians pay attention to the inheritance of teachers, and the most important thing is the inheritance of knowledge.

Thane did not refuse the things Zorro took out. He solemnly took the magic notes and bowed deeply to Zorro.

Thain is not actually bowing to Zorro, he is bowing to his deceased mentor Moshedo and the inheritance of knowledge written by Moshedo.

Including after obtaining these magic notes, Thane also divided the inheritance he inherited from Moses into three parts and presented them to Zorro and Mayfair.
