Chapter 35: Ouroboros Faction, Three Layered World
With the end of the conversation, the transaction with a huge quota began.
Since the Cleansing Potion and Frenzy Potion were common goods here, the price was calculated according to gold coins.
A total of 300,000 Ouroboros gold coins were obtained.
The remaining Meditation Potions were purchased with 10,000 Elemental Crystals.
The crystalline crystals that were filled with elemental attributes surprised Edward.
This was the first time he saw such a currency from a wizard.
One Elemental Crystal could be exchanged for 10,000 gold coins. The exchange rate was very high.
The transaction was completed. Before leaving, Carson revealed a piece of information to this rare alchemist.
There was a mysterious organization that had been established throughout the entire wizard Continent for a long time. Known as the Ancient Ones, they were recruiting talents at Ouroboros recently. With his proficiency in making potions, he might be able to join them.
This was an ancient organization that had been established for an unknown period of time. Compared to the other organizations in the market, the management of the Ancient Ones was very lax. The members were all powerful wizards from various places, and there was definitely no lack of alchemy recipes and ingredients.
The members inside could mutually benefit each other and undergo a series of equivalent exchanges.
However, those who could join were all outstanding individuals.
Carson told Edward that if he had the confidence and strength, he could participate. If he could join, the benefits that would follow would be indispensable.
Every organization lacked talented alchemists.
It was this news that allowed Edward to know the status of an alchemist.
Compared to the status recorded by traveling wizard thousands of years ago, they were now even more respectful.
It seemed that the alchemists were about to go extinct.
————————
Edward arrived at the teleportation circle of Ouroboros City and used ten Elemental Crystals as payment before entering.
As the white light filled Edward’s vision, space began to fluctuate, and dizziness returned to Edward’s mind.
This also caused him to enter a temporary blank state of mind.
When he came back to his senses, the discomfort gradually dissipated.
An urging voice sounded from the side: “The wizard over there, please come down from the teleportation formation quickly. Don’t cause a spatial dislocation for the next person.”
The speaker was a Rank 2 Wizard guard, and Edward was now at the intersection of the Ouroboros headquarters in Ouroboros City.
“System, scan the surroundings. I want to know the environment, terrain, and information of the whole of Ouroboros!”
[System prompt: Carrying out the request, please wait…]
This kind of thing had become a norm. He would scan almost every place he went.
Edward walked down from the silent teleportation formation and had time to observe his surroundings.
According to the information given by the system, Ouroboros had three levels.
He was currently on the second level.
This floor was no different from the one he had seen in the capital before. The surrounding green trees, marble floors, and elegant buildings were similar to the one he had seen before.
Everything here was completely different from the Ouroboros City outside which had the aura of death and dense misty fog.
There was another city above Edward’s head, but it was too far away and could not be seen clearly. There seemed to be steel vehicles floating in the air, emitting white smoke. It was the scene of an industrial revolution.
Even Edward, who had lived in the era of modern skyscrapers, was shocked. Everything was in order, and the hierarchy was very clear.
He walked to the side of the road and saw a gap that looked like a sewer. He could clearly see that there was another floor below him. People were coming and going below, and all kinds of shops were lined up. That was a trading area for wizards.
The second floor was similar to a residential area.
The third level was the daily meeting area of the members of Ouroboros!
Was this how the Wizard World was built?
The three-layered connection did not rely on any external force. It was supported by construction spells that were based on magic gravity.
What a beautiful construction style!
Edward could not help but sigh at the combination of medieval architecture and mystery, supernatural and industrial.
These wonderful elements constructed this giant city together.
The garden was green, and the plants added some embellishments to the city. It was very similar to a medieval noble’s garden. On the streets that had street lamps, wizards wearing various kinds of clothing walked together.
There were also some ordinary people who lived here but were unable to perform Spirit Enlightenment.
These should be the children or relatives of the Ouroboros members. They were born with anti-elemental bodies and could not cultivate.
“It’s magnificent, isn’t it? The beauty of the power of Ouroboros is the most spectacular part of the Eye of Storms. What do you think, honorable alchemist?”
A frivolous voice came from behind Edward. It was a young man in a white wizard robe. He was about twenty years old and had a smile on his face.
“Let me introduce myself. My name is Baal. I’m a Rank 2 Wizard who’s preparing to join Ouroboros.”
“Every wizard has their own mission here. Even the commoners are the same, maintaining the operation of this city!”
“Surviving here will depend on your own value. Those without value will be sent to Ouroboros City and become food for the undead.”
Baal stood behind Edward and asked softly, “Great Alchemist, are you going to join Ouroboros?”
Edward did not reply. He glanced at him indifferently and turned to walk towards the buildings.
However, Baal shamelessly followed.
“This must be your first time here. I can help you prepare everything you need!”
Edward stopped and said, “Just tell me what your motive is. Don’t beat around the bush!”
Baal was taken aback for a moment before he smiled, “Don’t you think a young Rank 2 Wizard like me would be able to cooperate perfectly with you?”
Edward’s lips curled into a smile, “I only like things of value, but I’m sorry, I don’t see any value in you!”
“Who gave you the confidence to talk to me as the trash you are?”
“You just have to remember one thing: I don’t need worthless slaves!”
Edward ignored the livid Baal and walked past him, thinking of a glorious building on the second level.
It was a place that one had to pass through when coming here for the first time.
