The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#374 - The master's bedroom
After sending off Master Sunny, Dolai made his request: he wanted to occupy the place for a few days.
Ekes had made a great deal. Originally, renting the place would have cost money, but that little bit of money was nothing compared to the value of this great furnace. So, they reached an agreement: only five days were allowed, and a fee would be charged after that.
Such a large business deal was naturally not within Ekes's ability alone; there were many people behind him. However, he was the only one who ultimately dealt with Dolai.
Dolai stayed underground and began to draw magic patterns, while Ekes returned to the upper levels and entered a bright office.
There were two people in the office, a man and a woman, sitting face to face at the desk, seemingly discussing something. The man was wearing ordinary light armor, and the woman was wearing a bright red wizard robe. The wizard robe emitted a terrifying aura, causing Ekes's smug expression to diminish considerably.
Ekes walked in, and the man sitting at the office desk looked up at him and said, "Is that troublemaker Dolai still here?"
Ekes nodded and said, "Reporting to the Guild Master, the furnace is too large. Dolai needs to imprint magic patterns to shrink the furnace before he can take it back. We'll have to trouble Master Crimson Lotus to watch over things here for a few days."
The woman in red was naturally Master Crimson Lotus.
She turned her head, revealing the appearance of a girl who was not even twenty years old. However, it would be wrong to judge her by this appearance; she was at least eighty years old.
Master Crimson Lotus frowned. "Isn't that little fellow an apothecary? How is he so skilled in alchemy as well? To be able to shrink such a large furnace, he must be at least a fifth-level alchemist?"
Ekes said cautiously, "I'm not sure, but if he says he can, he definitely can. Moreover, he came here this time as a doppelganger, which is why we asked Master Crimson Lotus to watch over things."
Master Crimson Lotus frowned. Dolai's doppelganger was no simple matter. It inherited the Xuan Corpse Worm used by the somewhat famous terrifying black wizard, Wushu, in the Northwest. This ancient insect was extremely fierce and brutal, and it had already been raised to the fifth level. A fifth-level Xuan Corpse Worm was not to be underestimated. If this guy really went berserk, everyone in the auction house, except for himself, would die.
"Alright, I'll keep an eye on things here for a few days. However, you all know the characteristics of the Xuan Corpse Worm. It's best not to provoke him without being sure. This Dolai likes to focus on apothecary and doesn't like to socialize. I don't think he's the kind of person who likes to cause trouble."
Crimson Lotus was an old wizard and naturally knew what wizards were thinking. If they could live in the sunlight, who would want to become a black wizard and stay in the darkness all day?
Ekes smiled wryly. "Who would go out of their way to provoke him? He even brought out his doppelganger. Now, apart from the Glory Wizard Alliance, no one dares to face that guy head-on."
Originally, the city lord's family, the Marcia family, and O'Neill, these large families, were preparing to forcefully win him over, but as soon as Dolai's doppelganger appeared, they immediately retreated and began to use various coercive methods to do this, because the name of the Xuan Corpse Worm was too great.
Throughout history, families have risen and fallen, but there have been quite a few families that were directly exterminated by a black wizard. They didn't want to follow in the footsteps of their predecessors.
The Guild Master said softly at this time, "There shouldn't be any problems. Send down the order to close off that area and leave the space for him. Also, keep an eye on those idiots from those families and don't let them cause trouble."
The last conflict was about the Sikong family, which almost scared people to death.
Ekes immediately obeyed.
After speaking, he immediately retreated. He didn't want to stay in this place for even a minute, especially when facing Master Crimson Lotus.
This sixth-level expert cultivated a special technique, and the place where she stood was like purgatory, filled with violent flames, fire poison, tyranny, and other auras. Facing those with a lower level of life, they felt very suppressed, and only experts like the Guild Master would not be affected.
He hurried to leave.
The room became quiet.
"Nanwo, what do you think that little fellow is cultivating now? Why is his mental control so strong?"
The president of the auction house, Nanwo, who belonged to the city lord's faction, said calmly, "No matter how powerful he is, he's still someone who's going to send money to our auction house. Isn't it better to have more people like that?"
Crimson Lotus looked at Nanwo and sighed in her heart. After all, he was not from the wizard lineage, a crude warrior who understood nothing.
She took a deep look at Nanwo and said, "I'm going down to learn more about our little friend."
Nanwo nodded, "As you wish."
Nanwo had the greatest administrative power in the auction house, but Crimson Lotus had the final decision-making power. As a sixth-level wizard, her ability to sense danger was much stronger than Nanwo's, not to mention that she controlled all the wizard formations in the entire auction house.
Crimson Lotus could use her own judgment to make stronger decisions than Nanwo regarding any dangerous factors.
At this time, in Crimson Lotus's perception, Dolai's entire person was blurry and she couldn't see his true appearance at all. His whole person in her mental world seemed to be a complete figure, yet also seemed to be a collection of millions and millions of tiny aggregates.
Although Dolai's level was one level lower than hers, she would suffer if she looked down on Dolai. This was an ancient poisonous insect, a fifth-level super weapon comparable to a sixth-level one.

Dolai's figure seemed weightless, and he lightly jumped onto the edge of the large cauldron, looking into its interior.
The space was empty and vast, with metal walls that had a metallic texture. Dolai could identify as many as five kinds of precious metals. If it was a complete and intact furnace with magic patterns imprinted on it, the price would be at least 30 million gold coins, but now, he had acquired it for only 12 million.
To be honest, Dolai felt a pang of pain at this price. His heart was bleeding when he made the bid. He could have saved some money to buy more medicinal materials, but now, it was gone.
The Super Vitality Potion had sold for some money, but just buying precious medicinal materials had used up all the money again, a full 10 million. The high-level medicinal materials of the sixth and seventh levels were simply not cheap. Any one of them cost hundreds of thousands or millions. He felt a twinge in his heart when he saw the list.
He shook his head, throwing these things to the back of his mind, and then closed his eyes, borrowing the magic power from his main body, along with the power of the Wizard Tower, and then all of it descended on the doppelganger.
Dolai's doppelganger's eyes then turned deep black, and then rays of colorful light emerged from his body, enveloping the entire furnace.
When the light fell on the furnace, it quickly formed white magic patterns, imprinting on the furnace wall.
If you looked closely, these magic patterns were all spatial magic patterns, and their levels were different, and their functions were different, but when the magic patterns were imprinted on the furnace, the formed magic patterns emitted rays of light, connecting with the surrounding magic patterns.
This speed was actually very, very slow. Dolai had to use his own power, and also use the power of the Wizard Tower, transmitting it from a distance. The transmission rate of power was very low, and he had to ensure that the mental power on his body was sufficient, and also maintain the stability of his mental power. It was actually very, very difficult.
