Mechanical God Emperor

Chapter 251 – Promoting to a Level-3 Warlock

Translator: Xaiomoge

The Red Earth Wasteland, The Miracle City, in a secret room of the city master’s mansion.

Yang Feng sat inside the secret room. There was a huge magic array carved underneath him and a large number of top grade magic stones, which slowly exuded tremendous life magic energy, scattered around him. The tremendous life magic energy entered his body.

In Yang Feng’s spirit sea, countless spirit force surge and tossed, and, inch by inch, gathered and formed the 3rd spell model Dragon Breath.

Once the 3rd spell model Dragon Breath was completed, very powerful life force suddenly appeared in his body and tremendous, indescribable strength surged in his body.

The soul seed that acted as the core also abruptly expanded frantically as it absorbed the life force.

A tremendous amount of life magic energy flowed into Yang Feng’s body. After being absorbed, the life magic energy strengthened his physical constitution.

A long time later, Yang Feng suddenly faced upwards and issued a tremendous dragon roar, then opened his eyes and his eyes glimmered. His body was filled with strength.

The corners of Yang Feng’s mouth rose slightly: “Level-3 Warlock, I finally promoted to a level-3 Warlock!”

Since he entered the Feisuo Plane, Yang Feng had never stopped practicing cultivation, and now, he finally promoted to a level-3 Warlock. Besides, he was a real level-3 Warlock, unlike some other level-3 Warlocks who only relied on elixirs. After advancing to a level-3 Warlock, Yang Feng’s strength increased by several times again.

Yang Feng left the secret room and went to the underground base near the Miracle City, where he entered the virtual reality battle cabin. He selected level-3 Warlock rank enemies and began his combat training.

A few days later.

“Master, Governor Bousso requests to see you!” Yang Feng had just finished his training in the virtual reality battle cabin, when Lina’s voice suddenly came from a communication magic box placed aside.

A secret treasure like the communication magic box refined using alchemy wasn’t as eye-catching as a mobile phone, and it could be used on the Feisuo Plane.

Wizards also had all kinds of mystical communication means, so the communication magic box was nothing special.

Yang Feng said lightly: “Take him to the reception hall to wait for me.”

Lena replied: “Yes, master!”

After taking a bath, Yang Feng left the underground base and went to the reception hall of the Miracle City.

When Bousso saw Yang Feng, he greeted him enthusiastically, saying: “Master Ian, good news! You’ve been enfeoffed as a hereditary peer earl of the Morrince Empire, with the Red Earth Wasteland as your fief!”

Bousso lamented: “The Orthux Family spent a great deal of energy for the sake of your title. Originally, with the help of our family, you should have gotten the title of duke. However, Duke Isere of the Hansen Family stepped in. In the end, under our family’s relentless arguments, we were only able to get you the title of earl. What a pity.”

Yang Feng creased his eyebrows slightly and asked in curiosity: “When did I offend Duke Isere of the Hansen Family?”

Yang Feng didn’t know many people in the Morrince Empire, so he didn’t know when he offended such a bigwig like Duke Isere.

Bousso said with a smile: “In the court, the one who pushed for the hunting fang corps to attack your Miracle City was Duke Isere! He took a fancy to your Miracle City.”

Killing intent flashed past Yang Feng’s eyes. He said with a light smile: “I see! Governor Bousso, I’m very grateful to your Orthux Family. As for Duke Isere, he’s bound to pay for his stupidity!”

With a flick of his wrist, he gave Bousso a warrior’s edge: “This is something I refined in passing, I hope that you like it.”

Bousso showed a satisfied smile. He took the warrior’s edge, examined it carefully for a moment, and sighed in praise: “What a good sword!! Master Ian, do you know for how much 1 warrior’s edge is being sold in the capital?”

Yang Feng answered: “I don’t!”

“For 2 million gold coins! Using your sword, the Storm Sacred Swordsman Demidio defeated the Gale Sacred Swordsman Favila! At the crucial moment of the fight between the 2 Sacred Swordsmen, the sword of the Gale Sacred Swordsman Favila was sliced apart by the warrior’s edge of the Storm Sacred Swordsman Demidio, which resulted in the former’s defeat.”

“In fact, it is common knowledge that Gale Sacred Swordsman Favila should be slightly stronger that the Storm Sacred Swordsman Demidio. After his defeat, the Gale Sacred Swordsman Favila wanted to purchase a warrior’s edge for a huge sum of money. Reportedly, if you offer him a warrior’s edge, you can be accepted as his personal disciple and be taught swordsmanship wholeheartedly.” Bousso looked fondly at the warrior’s edge in his hands and smiled.

For a Sacred Swordsman, a good sword was their second life. Many swords could not bear the qi of Sacred Swordsman rank powerhouses. Only when merged with precious magic metals like divine blood steel and mithril, could a magic sword bear the qi of Sacred Swordsman rank powerhouses.

Using an ordinary sword, a Sacred Swordsman could easily kill a Star Knight using such a precious sword as a warrior’s edge. However, when 2 Sacred Swordsmen fought to the death, if one used an ordinary sword and the other used an elite magic weapon like the warrior’s edge, the one to die would be the Sacred Swordsman using an ordinary sword.

Yang Feng smiled and said: “In this case, with this sword, you can become a personal disciple of the Gale Sacred Swordsman Favila, Governor Bousso.”

Bousso smiled and replied: “I know very well that I don’t have the talent for martial arts. Moreover, even after practicing until you reach the realm of Sacred Swordsman, you still have to listen to the orders of the court. The status of the empire’s Sacred Swordsmen is just the same as that of us governors. However, their authority is not necessarily comparable to ours. Besides, martial arts cannot be passed down for the next generation to inherit. But lands and titles of aristocrats can be inherited from generation to generation. Being a good aristocrat is much more cost-effective than being a martial artist. Martial artists are but hunting dogs to aristocrats.”

Yang Feng was slightly taken aback, and couldn’t help but to look at Bousso with different eyes. Previously, he felt contemptuous towards Bousso, who was a coward. But after having dealings with the other, he realized that Bousso wasn’t simply a good-for-nothing.

From the intelligence he received from Artais, Yang Feng got a lot of first-hand information about the Morrince Empire.

In the Morrince Empire, there were dozens of human Sacred Swordsmen. Many human Sacred Swordsmen either served the empire or became helpers of greater aristocrats. Very few Sacred Swordsmen really possessed a transcendental status.

The ultimate goal of Saint Swordsmen serving the empire was to become aristocrats, preferably peer hereditary greater aristocrats.

Bousso was already a greater aristocrat. Naturally, he wouldn’t abandon his current foundation to learn martial arts instead.

Bousso hesitated for a moment before saying: “Master Ian, now that you are an aristocrat, I brought you the appointment document. Nevertheless, you have to make preparations to go to the capital and have an audience with His Majesty in the near future. This is a necessary procedure. Any baron hereditary peer aristocrat and above must go to the capital within 2 months from the date they were enfeoffed to have an audience with His Majesty. Otherwise, your appointment will lose its legitimacy.”

Yang Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly: “To go to the capital!”

The Morrince Empire was one of the 2 human empires on the Feisuo Plane, so the capital of the Morrince Empire was infested with powerhouses and experts. There were over 30 Sacred Warriors. Besides, Legend Wizards and Legend Priests of the various temples gathered there.

Yang Feng had just been promoted to a level-3 Warlock. With his strength, it was easy to claim hegemony over the Red Earth Wasteland. However, once he went to the St. Tulan City, he would just be a top expert.

In a divine city like the St. Tulan City, even Starry Sky Warlock and Moonlight Warlock rank powerhouses would be jointly suppressed and destroyed by the gods once they acted up.

Bousso smiled, saying: “Master Ian, don’t worry. This is just so that His Majesty can see you, and not a ploy to lure you into the capital to kill you. It has already spread through the entire aristocratic stratum that you have been enfeoffed as an earl. Besides, your aristocratic appointment has been approved by the aristocratic senate. If His Majesty set up an ambush to kill you, that would have a chilling effect on the entire aristocratic stratum. With all due respect, but you aren’t qualified to make His Majesty do such a thing.”

Yang Feng thought carefully for a while before also revealing a smile and saying: “In that case, I’ll make preparations to go to the capital to have an audience with His Majesty.”

Only demigod and god rank powerhouses were worthy for the Morrince Empire to destroy its reputation by setting up an ambush to kill them. In front of the huge colossus that was the Morrince Empire, a Great Wizard (others had yet to find out that he already promoted to an ‘Archwizard‘) like Yang Feng was a nobody and was not worthy for the empire to do such a thing.

Bousso said with a smile: “I’ll return together with you! It just so happens that I also have to return to see His Majesty.”

Yang Feng agreed: “Alright!”

3 days later, a convoy escorted by 100 cavalrymen left the Miracle City and headed towards the Molinson Province.

15 days later, the convoy appeared in the Barroman City.

Not long after, a huge convoy escorted by 1,000 people slowly traveled towards the St. Tulan City.

Along the way, Yang Feng witnessed the might of the Orthux Family. Wherever Governor Bousso passed through, numerous officials would greet him warmly, and compete to offer him local specialty products and jewelry. Yang Feng, who was a newly appointed earl of the Morrince Empire, was also entertained enthusiastically. Numerous officials sent all kinds of beautiful women to Yang Feng and Governor Bousso.

Along the way, Yang Feng and Bousso welcomed all the jewelry and beautiful women without hesitation. Anyway, his Miracle City could accommodate those beautiful women without any worries.

Along the way, he sampled the delicacies from different places and had a taste of the local customs and practices of the Morrince Empire. Yang Feng moved leisurely towards the capital of the Morrince Empire, the St. Tulan City.
