<h4>Chapter 170: Second First-level Spell!</h4>

    Merlin had a total of six spells. Before he left the Dark Magic Region, Wizard Leo had given him all necessary First-level spells. Thus, he did notck in First-level spells so he would need to make a good choice as his second First-level spell.


    Merlin’s first First-level spell was Earth-type Defensive spell, Guardian Monument. This spell had indeed helped him tremendously. If he did not possess Guardian Monument when he fought against the Spell Casters recruited by Longardi, he could never be able to stand against Wizard Heghar’s Second-level spell attack with just Earth Guard.


    After having a Defensive spell, Merlin thought that his Offensive spells were less powerful. After all, neither Fireball nor Thunderbolt Net could break through the defense of some First-level Defensive spells.


    Even in the case of Wizard Heghar, Merlin had only seeded in killing him after casting the strengthened version of Dark Mist and dragging Wizard Heghar into an illusion. Merlin’s Fireball and Thunderbolt Net were nowhere powerful enough to kill Wizard Heghar alone.


    Merlin had thought about this matter for a long time. Albeit his offensive power was insufficient, if hepared Furious me with Dark Light Realm, thetter was undoubtedly more useful to Merlin.


    Once he cast Dark Light Realm, even the wizards with Mind Powerparable to Third-level Spell Casters could not break through it.


    Dark Light Realm had a strong hallucination effect. Regardless of how strong the Spell Caster was, he could almost be trampled at will if he had fallen into its illusion.


    Thus, Merlin made the decision for Dark Light Realm to be his second First-level spell!


    “The Matrix, analyze Dark Light Realm’s Spell Model!”


    “Beep. Mission established. Analysis begins!”


    The Matrix began to analyze the Spell Model while Merlin waited in silence as he meditated.


    After approximately half an hour, the Matrix finally reconstructed Dark Light Realm’s Spell Model. However, the time spent during the analysis was slightly longer than usual.


    “Beep. One hundred eleven thousand three hundred and sixty-eight Dark Light Realm’s Spell Models have been reconstructed!”


    About one hundred and ten thousand Spell Models had been reconstructed. This number was around the same as that of Guardian Monument which Merlin had constructed before. The next parameter would bepatibility.


    “The Matrix, analyze thepatibility between Dark Light Realm and Dark Mist!”


    The Matrix began to analyze thepatibility between the two spells rapidly. Compatibility was crucial in constructing an advanced spell with a beginner spell as the base.


    “Beep. Analysispleted!”


    The Matrix hadpleted its analysis. Merlin quickly looked at the result and found that thepatibility between Dark Light Realm and Dark Mist was rather high. One of the Spell Models even had ny-seven percent ofpatibility with Dark Mist! Suchpatibility had not been achieved by any Guardian Monument’s Spell Model.


    Then, Merlin began to choose the best Spell Model by considering overall performance in terms ofpatibility, stability, and power. He had gotten used to this process, so he did not take a lot of time to select the best one that suited him.


    “Dark Light Realm! Let’s begin to simte it with Mind Power...”


    After choosing the Spell Model, Merlin controlled his Mind Power and began simting Dark Light Realm’s Spell Model gradually.


    However, after taking a brief nce, Merlin noticed that the Dark Light Realm’s Spell Model was extremelyplicated. It was far moreplex than Guardian Monument’s Spell Model.


    In fact, the moreplicated the Spell Model, the more Mind Power would be needed to simte it. When Merlin was considering Dark Light Realm at the Resource Tower, he was advised to be “cautious”, proving theplexity of Dark Light Realm’s Spell Model. Now that he had seen it with his own eyes, it was trulyplex to an unimaginable extent.


    The Spell Model of some Second-level spells might even be lessplicated than Dark Light Realm.


    Merlin had simted a third of Dark Light Realm’s Spell Model with his Mind Power, then he stopped. He opened his eyes and shook his head helplessly. He muttered, “Tooplicated. I don’t have enough Mind Power. It seems that if I want to sessfully construct Dark Light Realm, I require the maximum Second-level Mind Power or even Third-level Mind Power!”


    The Dark Light Realm’s Spell Model was tooplex; it required an immense amount of Mind Power to simte it. Thus, even if Merlin had improved his Mind Power through cultivating advanced Mind Meditation Spell and taking potions, he still could not simte Dark Light Realm’s Spell Model in his Awareness.


    If he simted it forcefully, he would probably put himself in danger. Merlin would not do anything without absolute confidence.


    Although he was regretful that he could not construct Dark Light Realm, Merlin was rather calm. Hence, he proceeded to choose another spell.


    Frigid Ice was a good choice. After all, if he sessfully constructed Frigid Ice, Merlin would have satisfied one of the conditions to cultivate Pandora Demon Ability, cial Finger. He could begin cultivating it after he found hundred years’ ice bone marrow in the future.


    Although the strength of cial Finger was not known, Merlin thought that it would not be that bad. After all, Frigid Ice, which was a First-level spell, was one of the basic conditions to cultivate it. At the minimum, the strength of cial Finger would be greater than that of Frigid Ice.


    Even though he was attracted by the cultivation of cial Finger, he was clear that Frigid Ice was only a Binding spell. Even if it had ice poison, its offensive ability was obviously less powerful than Offensive spell, Furious me.


    Merlin’s current Mind Power could only support him to construct a First-level spell. Thus, he would need to decide between Frigid Ice and Furious me.


    “Never mind. Let’s construct Furious me first. In this way, I’ll possess both First-level Defensive spell and First-level Offensive spell. It will help me to bnce my ability!”


    Merlin considered his choice for a long time and finally decided to go with Furious me since Demon Ability, cial Finger, still required hundred years’ ice bone marrow. Merlin had not heard of this item before, so he might never find it in this life. This meant that he might never cultivate cial Finger.


    After some considerations, Merlin thought that it was more fitting to construct Furious me first.


    He had chosen Furious me’s Spell Model a long time ago. When Merlin was back in the Dark Magic Region, he had attempted to construct Furious me but he failed due to insufficient Mind Power.


    Since Merlin’s Mind Power had increased significantly, he still could not construct aplicated spell such as Dark Light Realm. On the other hand, he would not face any problem in constructing Furious me.


    Following that, Merlin closed his eyes and Furious me’s Spell Model popped in his mind in a three-dimensional image.


    Merlin controlled his Mind Power and began to simte Furious me’s Spell Model.


    One hour, two hours, three hours...


    Until he reached the six-hour mark, Merlin’s mind suddenly quivered. At once, a scorching aura appeared rapidly. Countless Fire Elements appeared next to Merlin.


    An element was originally without shape and color. However, if arge number of Elements gathered, they would manifest in a shape. For example, a me was, in fact, formed by countless Fire Elements, just like ice crystals which were formed by numerous Ice Elements.


    At this moment, fiery-colored Elements could be observed around Merlin. This showed the high saturation of Fire Elements around Merlin!


    “I did it!”


    Merlin opened his eyes and a hint of excitement jumped in his eyes. He had finally constructed his second First-level spell, Furious me!


    Furious me’s Spell Model in Merlin’s Awareness was absorbing endless Fire Elements from his surroundings, umting Magic Power rapidly.


    Along with the sessful construction of Furious me, Merlin now had two First-level Spell Models in his Awareness. The other four Spell Models were Zero-level spells.


    Two First-level Spell Models had brought immense pressure upon the other four Zero-level Spell Models. Everything in Merlin’s Awareness hadpletely lost their equilibrium. There would not be any problem in the short-term but no one knew what would happen in the long run.


    The worst it could be was theplete destruction of his Spell Models. Thus, Merlin still could not rx after only constructing two First-level spells. He would need to construct First-level Spell Models for his other Zero-level spells as soon as possible to maintain the bnce between the Spell Models in his Awareness.


    “Let’s test its power!”


    Merlin wanted to know how strong his First-level spell, Furious me was, so he pointed his finger to the front. Ice crystals immediately formed on the ground.


    “Frost!”


    Merlin cast Frost continuously a dozen times, alternating it with Large Frost. The ice crystals formed were extremely sturdy.


    By using Fireball, Merlin would still need some time topletely melt the ice crystals formed by Frost.


    “Furious me!”


    Instantly, Merlin cast Furious me which he had just constructed. At once, a scorching aura appeared and the temperature in the room appeared to elevate rapidly.


    The me of Furious me was not in the shape of fireballs; it was a line of fire shot into the air, winding around the ice crystals on the ground.


    Each line of fire of Furious me was highlypressed, so it appeared extremely unstable. Once it hit the target, it would explode.


    This was the reason why Furious me was named as “furious”.


    “Boom! Boom! Boom!”


    After the line of fire touched the ice crystals, the unstable, highlypressed me immediately exploded. Its power was much stronger than Merlin’s Large Fireball.


    Those ice crystals werepletely melted in the blink of an eye. The remaining water from the melted crystals had even evaporated into vapor by the high temperature. Only a charred ck hole was formed on the ground.


    “Tsk.”


    Merlin could not help but draw in his breath. The strength of Furious me had exceeded his expectation. Initially, he thought that Furious me was a rathermon First-level spell but he did not expect it to be this strong. Judging by the power of its me, not only did it melt the ice crystals but it also sted a huge hole through solid ground.


    In fact, Merlin did not understand why Furious me was amon spell but possessed immense strength. These two traits offered different characteristics and the difference was huge. Heter understood that many Spell Casters constructed Furious me due to its strong offensive abilities.


    The ordinary version of Furious me was already this powerful. What would the strengthened version of Furious me be?


    Merlin did not continue the testing as he was extremely satisfied by the performance of Furious me.


    If he encountered Wizard Heghar again, Merlin could st through his Defensive spell by relying on the offensive ability of Furious me and kill him without casting the strengthened version of Dark Mist!
