Chapter 249: 249、【Superior Refining Mana Pool·Triple Magic Array】_1
“Demonization Efficiency”, “Conversion Rate”, and “Output Efficiency” are the three most important indicators of the [Magic Pool].
“Demonization Efficiency” refers to the speed of converting monster materials into pure magic power — the faster the conversion, the higher the value.
“Conversion Rate”, on the other hand, refers to the energy utilization rate of monster materials.
For instance, a common quality Magic Pool could only convert 10% of the energy from a dragon’s heart into magic power. But a rare quality Magic Pool could achieve a conversion rate as high as 20%!
For the same dragon’s heart, a high-quality Magic Pool could convert double the energy into magic power!
“Output Efficiency” as the name suggests refers to the speed of extracting refined magic power to the outside world.
A short time ago in Pearl City, Su Yu spent nearly 30 million spiritual energy coins collecting materials and eventually created a rare quality Magic Pool.
Though he was quite satisfied, upon hearing about Snow Fall’s arrival in the Empire of Lai Yin, he sought a way to contact Thor.
With Thor’s top-level enchantment, the quality of the Magic Pool could be elevated once more!
Anduin had quite an understanding of the Mage Tower, so he continued reading.
At the end of the letter, Su Yu wrote: “Your Excellency Anduin, I have a Soul Fragment left behind after Xi Fan’s death. If you are willing, I can trade it in exchange for this enchantment opportunity.”
Upon seeing this, Anduin’s eyes widened in surprise.
He grasped the letter so tightly, almost tearing it apart.
“A Soul Fragment of Xi Fan! It’s Xi Fan’s Soul Fragment!” An overjoyed Anduin exclaimed.
80 years ago, he made a mistake which caused him to lose the trust of the Sanctuary, trapping him at the peak of the fifth tier, unable to make any progress.
Previously, he and Thor and Tula Yang were at the same tier, but now Thor is at the peak of the seventh tier, while he is still stuck at the peak of the fifth tier, without any hope of advancement.
If he could get Xi Fan’s Soul Fragment, he could seize this opportunity to abandon the Sanctuary and embrace the Shadow.
Advancing to the sixth tier would be no problem, and even reaching the seventh tier in his lifetime is not impossible!
In the face of such a great opportunity, he naturally wanted to seize it!
Anduin immediately spoke to Snow Fall with a pleasant smile, “Adventurer, please convey to Lord Nemesis that I agree to his trade terms! I assure you that Lord Thor will arrive in Orleans City this afternoon!”
“Really? Thank you so much, Sir Anduin!” Snow Fall exclaimed happily.
“No need for thanks, I should thank you,” Anduin politely replied.
Back at Su Yu’s territory, Aphi City.
The newly constructed Mage Tower was located at the northernmost point of the city, with the boundless Black Forest to its north and the city district of Aphi City to the south.
Su Yu rode Dima towards the Mage Tower.
While still en-route, he received a message from Snow Fall, “Hey hey, Anduin has agreed to your terms, and Thor will be there this afternoon.”
Su Yu responded, “Noted, thank you very much!”
Snow Fall: “Not at all . There’s one more thing I hesitated to ask you.”
Su Yu: “What is it? Feel free to say it, I am not a petty person.”
Snow Fall: “My brother told me you’re eating instant noodles for every meal now?”
Su Yu: “Yeah, as long as it fills my stomach, I’m good.”
Snow Fall: “My brother asked me to propose, would you like me to move in with you? Our school is currently suspended, I can cook for you every day.”
Seeing this message, Su Yu twitched at the corners of his mouth.
He had teased the Snow Leopard about marrying his sister as a joke. Could it be that Snow Leopard had taken it seriously?
Su Yu quickly replied, “That won’t be necessary. There’s just one bed here, it wouldn’t be convenient.”
Snow Fall: “No problem, I can sleep on the floor.”
Su Yu quickly changed the subject: “Haha, let’s talk about the hidden mission. To the north of Paramecia City, there’s a little town called [Truffle Town] which produces lots of truffles. You can talk to the town chief there ”
After sending a whole slew of hidden mission information to Snow Fall, Su Yu exhaled a sigh of relief and closed the private chat interface.
Meanwhile, Dima had brought him to the foot of the Mage Tower.
The Mage Tower was a 40-meter high, grey-towered building with six total floors.
However, aside from the Magic Pool on the third floor, all other areas were temporarily not set up.
The home of a high-ranking mage, the Mage Tower, was chalk full of dense magical formations – defense formations on the outer walls and amplification formations on the inner ones including additional runes for common daily life uses.
Under the empowerment of the Mage Tower, even a typical sixth-tier mage could stand up to seventh-tier mages from outside – greatly enhancing the Mage’s abilities.
The cost Su Yu incurred for the Mage Tower was less than 10 million spiritual energy coins, not even one third of the cost of the Magic Pool.
However, the protective capability of the Mage Tower now was not to be underestimated – even a sixth-tier Sanctuary expert would have a hard time breaking through the Tower in a short period.
Katie, the little girl, had been in charge of the construction of the Mage Tower and the Magic Pool.
Seeing Su Yu’s arrival, she was genuinely delighted, eagerly touring him around the Mage Tower and introducing him to its interior.
“Lord, this is the first-floor reception hall for hosting your guests. But it hasn’t been fully furnished yet This is the second-floor laboratory for your magical experiments This is the study ”
As they proceeded with the tour, they reached the third floor.
In the center of the third floor was a large magical formation with exceptional complexity etched into the ground. At the center of the magic formation was a pool two meters deep, made of precious metals such as mithril and peacock gold.
“My Lord, this is the ‘Magic Pool’. It took Master Mage Li Yueke from Pearl City, together with his students, half a month to complete,” Katie pointed out the pool in front of them.
“Good, very good.”
Su Yu placed his hand on the main control panel next to the Magic Pool, and its attributes immediately appeared before his eyes.
[Triple-Enchantment Supreme Magic Pool]
Quality: Rare
Total Magic Pool Capacity: 1 Million
Demonization Efficiency: 3324
Conversion Rate: 24.5%
Output Efficiency: 3145
Note: Place monster materials in and activate the Magic Pool. The Magic Pool will transform monster materials into the purest form of magic.
“Hmm, these attributes are not bad.” Su Yu nodded.
Master Mage Li Yueke, being the expert he was, had the Magic Pool reaching the upper limit of the rare quality level under his guidance.
Su Yu had visited some Magic Pools in his previous life.
Common quality Magic Pools had a Demonization and Output Efficiency of about 1000+, and a Conversion Rate of around 10%.
The rates were higher for rare quality ones with Demonization, Output Efficiency around 2500+, and Conversion Rate about 20%.
The attributes of this Magic Pool were much higher than the average rare quality ones. It seems his 30 million wasn’t spent in vain!
“My Lord, shall we start now?” Katie, the young girl, asked eagerly with a cute expression.
She had never seen a Magic Pool in operation and could hardly wait.
“No rush, Katie. We are waiting for one important guest,” Su Yu said, shaking his head with a smile.
Just then.
Crack!
A forked lightning bolt illuminated the sky outside the window, clearly visible even in daylight.
