Chapter 1101: Zowenʼs Brilliant Idea

Tang Shaoyangʼs business with the skeleton army was over as his remaining job was just to deliver the Skelly Family and the newly summoned skeleton into the Epic Rank Garden. He recalled all the skeletons and planned to move with the minimum number, Zowen, Rosalie, and him. That way, they should be faster to reach their location.

Zowen was still fascinated with Skelly7ʼs creation, holding the staff up and admiring it closely. Even though the staff was made of bone and the staffʼs design was close to that bone, it still infuriated the calm and collected Grand Magus. The orb was not round but a cube this time, releasing a black-gold lightning spark as it spun at the tip of the staff.

”Are you satisfied with the staff?” Tang Shaoyang asked, curious about what turned her like this.

”Do you still need to ask? You can see from her lewd face that she is extremely satisfied with the staff.” Rosalie commented from the side, shaking her head.

Zowen did not mind being called lewd because she was really satisfied with her new staff. The mockery could not defeat her happiness for receiving such a staff. It was much, much better than her previous staff.

”I am satisfied with the staff,” Zowen said, nodding heavily at the question. ”I think you should ask Skelly7 for a new weapon instead of asking someone else to make you a new one. Skelly7 can create a much better one and tailor it to the element you master. I would say Skelly7 is the best craftsman I have met in my life.”

”Is it an Epic Rank staff?” Tang Shaoyang asked, curious about what made the grand magus praise Skelly to such an extent. He wanted to see what kind of staff Skelly7 made for Zowen.

”Nope, Itʼs better. An Ancient Rank and it has an option to increase my lightning magic power by forty percent.” Zowen could not stop smiling ever since she received the staff, holding it carefully as if she had just got a new toy. ”But you need to prepare a lot, though. You have to decide whether you want to use fourteen Myth Ranks and one Primordial Rank for one piece of equipment or one spirit. You still need a spirit with magic in an emergency case.”

She was not wrong about the high-rank spirit with magic. There was something only magic could do. In case Zowen or Rosalie was not with him, he needed magic.

”What are you talking about? He may excel in close combat, but his magic power is absurdly strong too. His black fire is much stronger than my fire, and he has a dragon bloodline that amplifies magic. Dragon is a magic-born beast that quickly adapts to magic. I donʼt think he needs a spirit with magic.” Rosalie voiced her thoughts.

From her perspective, she did not think that Tang Shaoyang needed a high-rank spirit with magic. However, she did agree that Tang Shaoyang would need a new spirit soon if he wanted to resurrect all his current spirits. [Spirit Integration] was one of his strongest skills, and it was a skill that relied on how strong the spirit was.

”Thatʼs true. I assume heʼs bad with magic because of his lack of knowledge in magic.” Zowen replied, agreeing with Rosalieʼs thought. ”Guess you can do whatever you want. If you need a new spirit, then you can summon one. If you need a new weapon, then you can ask Skelly7 to make a new one. What you really need right now is to raise your level, after all.”

Zowen stored her new staff in her inventory and stretched her hands. ”Letʼs pack up and move to the new location. You should take care of the Myth Rank if thereʼs any, but you should give the Ancient Rank and below to me.”

”Before that, I need to drop off the Skelly Family and my skeleton army inside the Epic Rank Garden. Thatʼs the safest place to grow my skeleton army.” Tang Shaoyang briefed her on what he had in mind about his new army.

After that, Tang Shaoyang recalled all the skeletons, including the Skelly Family. It would be faster if he moved by himself than having the skeleton follow him around. It was good to have the skeletons to kill the beast and monster on the way to Epic Rank Garden, but he was in a hurry to visit the next destination. The resource was too valuable, and he did not want the factions from the starter city #5 to get it.

”Wake up, sleepy boy. We need a ride.” Tang Shaoyang nudged Wrathʼs head. Zowen and Rosalie could not follow his speed, so Wrath was the only option he had to arrive at the Epic Rank Garden faster.

*** ***

Tang Shaoyang dropped off Wrath two thousand meters away from the Epic Rank Garden. Not because the Golden Dragon was exhausted after flying for one hour, but because a lot of people watched the Epic Rank Garden.

Even though he had control over the Epic Rank Garden and no one could enter without his permission, there were still a lot of people watching it. He knew that these people were here not to guard the resource but to catch him or inform their factions if he ever visited the resource. He could deduct with how stealthily these people watched over the gate into the Epic Grade Resource.

Through Spirit Eyes, he discovered several groups far from the entrance. Those groups comprised three up to five people. There was no need for him to think about what they were doing. These groups meant not to fight but to keep a watch on him.

”They never learn.” Zowen shook her head after hearing the situation. She had a mischievous smile as her eyes gleamed playfully, and said. ”What if you play them? You enter the garden, and then you switch out with [Spirit Switch] after you drop your skeletons inside?”

Once they discovered Tang Shaoyang entered the garden, they would call the main force to capture Tang Shaoyang. What happened then? There was a possibility that these factions would clash with each other. If all the factions that eyed Tang Shaoyangʼs dragon came here with their main force. They would end up fighting against each other before capturing Tang Shaoyang since there was only one trophy for the winner. Those factions would fight among themselves until one last faction left, but then they would realize later that they fought for nothing because Tang Shaoyang was out of the garden through Spirit Switch.

Tang Shaoyang clicked his tongue and shook his head, but he had a wide smile as he understood what Zowen was trying to do. ”I donʼt know that you are this evil, heh?”
