Chapter 53: The Magic Element Pool Worth 80 Billion( First Order)
Roy did not go to Kamar-Taj before because his path as a magician was not yet established.
Without a clear source of magic, traveling to Kamar-Taj might lead to following the path of the Ancient One magician.
Even with the Truth Will Meditation method, one can protect the mind.
But the path of relying on a long time to hone oneself bit by bit and build a true spirit is too tiring.
And after having an endless source of magic power.
Roy can then without any scruples quickly absorb the endless knowledge collected by the Ancient One magician in Kamar-Taj and transform it into nourishment for his own magician journey.
In this way, Roy only needs to collect resources to steadily ascend to godhood.
Gathering resources is much easier than the 'ascetic' approach of the Ancient One magician.
Building a magician tower is enough to ensure your safety in the material plane.
Building a floating city would be enough to allow him to travel the entire galaxy.
Going further up, once you set foot in planes, dimensions, multiverses, etc., with the infusion of resources, you can directly experience the joy of level ascension and being promoted to godhood.
Thinking of this, Roy became full of motivation.
Then, in the magic laboratory, Roy began to quickly process the treasures that John Wick had looted from many New York vampire families.
Gold, gems, rare minerals, and even various magical materials, etc.
Although those vampire families are not very powerful, they live for a long time.
Even for ants, the resources they can collect over a longer timeframe cannot be underestimated.
Not to mention vampires, dark creatures that are inherently greedy and extravagant.
The only pity is that vampires have a natural aversion to substances like silver, so the stock is almost ridiculously small.
Fortunately, among these treasures, there are many antiques such as oil paintings, porcelain, and handicrafts.
If you sell these things, you can get a lot of silver in return.
In this way, Roy could barely gather the resources to build the magic element pool.
It took more than ten days.
Apart from occasionally eating, sleeping, and playing poker with the two girls, Roy spent almost all of his remaining time in the magic laboratory.
And the results of this almost crazy work are also very fruitful.
In the past, Roy and Veronica's magic powers were at a poor and insufficient level.
But from CPH4's bottom-level observation, Roy obtained a large passive ability spell in the string world.
The Crown of Wisdom constantly queries, decomposes, and deduces the formulas of various materials.
The Proof of Elements and the Proof of Nothingness provide infinite positive and negative magic power, accelerating the smelting of materials.
Under these existing conditions, Roy doubled the magic levels of commonly used magic metals such as refined gold, mithril, orichalcum, and tin.
At the same time, Roy also obtained additional lapis lazuli, sea silver, red blood copper, star pattern steel and many other substitutes.
Some of these materials are weaker than the original magic metals, but some are more outstanding than the original magic metals, and even have more advantages in some aspects.
For example, Vibranium.
This thing has good energy conductivity, and its stability and corrosion resistance are ridiculously strong.
The biggest disadvantage is that the quantity is too small.
Those vampires have only been able to collect about three to five kilograms from their hundreds of years of collection.
However, Vibranium is not used much in the process of creating the magic element pool.
The ones that really have a greater demand for Vibranium are relatively small endless magic sources such as the Elemental Furnace and the Iola Core. They are generally used in large-scale war magic props and the manufacture of advanced golem puppets.
Before the Chitauri invasion, Thanos's arrival and other major war plots.
Roy doesn't have much demand for these things.
What's more, Vibranium is right there in Africa.
When you need it again, you can take it whenever you need it.
As for Wakanda, those noble magical retro-tech black kingdoms, if you're smart, keep them.
If you don't know what's best for you, haha.
After writing down Vibranium and Wakanda in the notebook, Roy quickly devoted his full attention to the creation of the magic element pool.
The magic element pool was placed by Roy on the second underground floor of the Wonderland Manor.
This was originally the underground parking lot of Wonderland Manor.
However, after the entire fairyland manor was gradually transformed into a demon, all the sightseeing cars in the secret realm of the manor have been replaced by demonized versions.
Originally, all those luxury cars, sports cars and the like were parked in the parking lot outside the manor.
After this underground parking lot became vacant, it was reserved by Roy very early on.
At this time, the entire second underground floor was empty.
Obsidian covered the entire ground like a glass mirror, and fine and dazzling mixed metals of refined gold and mithril were laid out along the remaining magic patterns, forming an extremely dense magical energy channel.
In addition, the load-bearing columns were also transformed into magic pillars and readjusted to form the center of the formation.
There was only a blank hole left in the center of the entire second underground floor.
But now, the entire blank pit has been built up by Roy with lapis lazuli to form a circular pool.
In that pool.
The sea-sinking silver forms an anchor point, inlaid with magical natural gemstones, like the starry sky at the bottom of the pool.
The star-patterned steel is like a mesh of filaments, hidden in the narrow gaps of the dazzling magic circle, forming overlapping magic rings.
In addition, in order to maintain the stability of the entire element pool, Roy also used magical means to form a layer of Vibranium coating on the pool wall.
After the wealth plundered from the New York vampire family was almost completely spent.
The magic element pool that Roy had been waiting for for a long time finally took shape.
At this time, five months had passed since the visit of the White House, the New York City government, and the veteran US military.
Until the first heavy snow fell in New York this winter.
Roy, Veronica, Emma, John Wick, and Helen all gathered on the second underground floor of Wonderland Manor.
Looking at the dried-up pool that looked like the starry sky in a dark room.
Emma was curious for a long time before she finally spoke: "My dear, this is what you spent five months and over 80 billion US dollars to create~~ Claw?
Emma's words stunned Roy and Veronica.
Roy and Veronica were the main force in creating this magic element pool, but they had never noticed how much money was spent in the entire process.
If you think about it carefully, it makes sense...bullshit.
Roy's eyes widened, he covered his chest and asked, "How much did you say I spent?"
Emma's eyes flickered for a moment as she said, "80 billion! I've had people calculate the wealth of those vampire families. It's worth 80 billion US dollars, and that's not even the market price. It's just smuggled goods..."
