Chapter 1055 - 433: The Ceremony in Progress (Part 3)
The six crystal boards were stacked together in different sequences, becoming smoothly interconnected.
Alka immediately sealed them and then threw them into the space.
The wound on his palm had unknowingly healed.
"Did it succeed?"
Alka nodded and said, "It succeeded, but we can’t delay any longer."
After speaking, he immediately disappeared from the spot, and those who saw it noticed a mirror-like surface beneath his feet, resembling flowing water.
Alka’s presence reappeared on the Sound of Dawn.
After his figure vanished, his voice slowly came through: "Wait for me on the island for a while. I’ll complete the final step on the ship."
Hearing this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground. Hosting such a ceremony was truly exhausting.
Even the surrounding magic power had been completely consumed, waiting for other nearby magic power to fill in.
After resting for a while, Simon exhaled deeply, and then a Magic Gathering Stone appeared in his hand.
It was something they had previously dismantled from the ship. He found a good spot and placed the Magic Gathering Stone above his head.
Simon sat down cross-legged and began advancing to the Fifth Stage.
This time, they were not just here to complete the ceremony but also to upgrade his power to the Fifth Stage in such a secluded place.
Such a grand ceremony couldn’t be conducted on Gemini Island as it would be too conspicuous, and leveling up to the Fifth Stage would be equally conspicuous.
However, advancing to the Fifth Stage didn’t require as much effort in finding such an isolated island.
They just needed to stay away from Gemini Island for a while and stop anywhere on the sea.
Jason and the others distanced themselves a bit and began to rest.
Time flew by.
Simon quickly reached the Fifth Stage, and on the island, he started simple training with Jason and the others. Such sparring could help him quickly grasp the changes in his body post-upgrade.
After all, the changes in strength and speed after leveling up were quite significant.
"Speaking of which, Alka’s treasure should be almost crafted. What about yours?" Jason asked Simon.
Hearing this, Simon, who had just finished training, panted and said, "It’s missing one crucial material. The island’s trade guild doesn’t have it, so I’ve ordered some, but they won’t be available until next month. The crafting process has been interrupted."
The treasures currently under production include one in Alka’s hand and one in Simon’s hand.
Julia’s treasure, as well as Jason’s treasure.
Some more time is needed.
Thus, they casually set up a makeshift camp on the island.
After resting for a day or two, they finally saw Alka coming over from the ship.
At that moment, Alka’s hair was disheveled, and he looked extremely exhausted. Clearly, he hadn’t rested at all these past few days. Not only did he not rest, but he also must have been highly focused on the crafting of the treasure.
Despite his exhaustion, Alka’s mood was evidently great, indicating the treasure was successfully crafted.
"Let’s go; we’ll head back first."
Hearing this, Jason couldn’t hold back any longer and eagerly asked, "What does your treasure look like? You have to let us see it."
"Why rush? We’ll all see it when we go back, plus the treasure needs to absorb some energy and stabilize," Alka said.
"It still needs to absorb energy? This is a Scepter Level treasure," Lucilia exclaimed from Ulu Liwus’s shoulder.
Alka nodded and began walking towards the ship, with the others following behind, listening to his explanation.
"Although it sounds a bit unbelievable, it is indeed the case. Mainly because it is a compound Elemental Class. So, there will be an allocation of elemental energy, and since it’s just been completed, it needs some time to allocate the energy properly. I hadn’t anticipated this. It’s still in the manufacturing room."
Upon hearing this, no one pressed further, and they followed him onto the ship. The moment they boarded, they could feel the chaotic magical touch on the ship.
Just as Alka said, the magic power of the treasure was being redistributed, also affecting the surrounding environment.
"The range of influence of this treasure is quite extensive."
Nevertheless, they quickly sailed away from the island, heading back to Gemini Island.
After a night’s voyage, by early the next day, they could see the island of Gemini Island from afar.
Alka had finally slept a full night, fully replenishing his energy.
Logically, staying awake for so long shouldn’t have consumed so much energy. Mainly, being engrossed for such an extended time was too tiring.
Soon, they entered the harbor.
The chaotic atmosphere on the ship had disappeared overnight, indicating that the redistribution of the treasure’s magic had achieved a perfect balance, and the treasure was finally perfectly crafted.
It was time for a demonstration.
Chadite and the others had been waiting for some time, and Alka’s ship had just docked when the people left on the island returned to the deck one after another.
The moment they got back on the deck, their first task was to find Alka and ask about his new treasure.
