Chapter 1216 Black Ore
From MC’s Perspective:
I stood up and followed the high-level wizard. After appearing outside, the wizard grabbed my shoulder and directly took me to the Treasury area.
We went further deep inside the Anderson Family Territory. After crossing several high tower buildings, we landed in front of one particular building.
This particular building has more than five floors, but its appearance looks ordinary. But I won’t underestimate it because I have already sensed several Magic Formations around this place.
“Follow me,” the high-level wizard said.
Hearing that, I nodded and started following him.
Stay tuned to My Virtual Library Empire
After reaching the door, he took out the token to open the formation.
Click!
Something clicked. The next second, the door opened.
The high-level wizard entered inside. I followed him into the building. After entering, I saw a long straight corridor.
Both sides of the walls had paintings all over them.
[Ding! Paintings with Mind Magic detected.]
A mechanical voice sounded in my mind.
Hearing that, my heart set off storms. I stopped looking at it and continued to follow the wizard.
Not long after, we came to a golden door. The high-level wizard informed someone.
Swoosh!
An old man in black cloth appeared in the next second.
“Elder,” the high-level wizard greeted before whispering something to him.
The old man is the Treasury Elder who had sent a message earlier. His eyes flickered, then his gaze settled on the young man.
“Young wizard, come with me,” the old man said.
I felt no malicious intent from him; otherwise, the system would have warned me. So I nodded my head and walked up to the old man.
The old man smiled, then he took out the token to open the golden door.
Creak!
When the golden door opened, he stepped inside. Seeing that, I walked in as well. Then the old man closed the door before activating the formation.
Swoosh!
I felt my vision go blank before appearing inside a huge hall filled with countless precious items. The bright, glistening lights almost blinded my eyes.
I was also feeling power from various treasure artifacts. Some of them were giving dangerous vibes.
“Young wizard, this is our treasure collection. This place is filled with recorded and unknown items. Our recorded list doesn’t have Gravity Magic items.”
“So you should check whether you can sense them from the unknown items,” the old man said.
Hearing that, I replied, “Okay.”
Then I told the system to look for Gravity Magic-related items in this place, silently in my heart. My eyes swept across the room.
There were piles of collections everywhere, from precious gems to artifacts. There were several different affinity mana stones, and rare herbs and fruits could be seen here.
There were also different storage boxes arranged one on top of another. I didn’t know what they contained. The old man quietly stood, his gaze never leaving the young man.
He was aware that the young man was the reason for their Family Head’s tense voice. But he couldn’t do anything right now.
On the other hand, I was waiting for the system’s response.
[Ding! Gravity ore detected]
[Ding! It’s found in the east corner.]
The system responded in my mind. The next second, I started walking toward the east corner.
The old man was surprised and followed me from behind.
I walked up to the piles of different broken items.
“It’s the collection of unknown items,” I heard the old man’s voice from behind.
Since it was an ore, I started to go through the items.
Not long after, I picked up a fist-sized black ore. I immediately felt powerful gravity mana hidden in its core. What’s more, I felt the Gravity Rule Power moving.
My heart rose with ecstasy. The item was better than I thought. The gravity mana I was feeling from it was stronger than anything I had encountered.
Then I asked the system to check whether anything was left.
The old man standing behind was surprised because he saw nothing but a useless rock. Why did this young man pick it up? Did it have gravity mana?
He wanted to ask several questions, but he stopped his impulsion. The black item had been in this room for who knows how many years.
The old man thought that the Family Head agreed to give this item; otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent the young man directly here.
On the other hand, I was waiting with anticipation.
Shortly afterwards,
[Ding! Zero Gravity Resource Found!]
The system voice sounded again. Seeing that there were no more items, my eyes flashed with disappointment. Then I calmed my heart.
At least I got the black ore. I turned toward the old man.
“I’m choosing this item,” I said.
“Okay, you can take it back to the office room. I will inform the head,” the old man said.
Hearing that, I placed the black ore inside the storage bracelet. Then he led me back toward the Teleportation formation. There was one at the end of the room.
Shortly afterwards,
We appeared back at the golden door area. The old man opened the door again. The high-level wizard was waiting outside for me.
“Take him back to the head,” the old man said.
The high-level wizard obeyed.
A few minutes later,
We returned to the guest building. After entering the room, I found the gazes of the two of them on me. I didn’t know what they had discussed while I was gone.
The high-level wizard stayed outside.
“Did you get anything?” Howard asked.
Hearing that, I took out the black ore in front of them.
“This unknown ore is useful to me,” I said.
“Good, you got your magic resource,” Howard said.
Tommy Anderson was surprised. On the surface, you wouldn’t find anything, but he could tell the ore contained powerful mana.
He turned toward Head Howard. He thought Head Howard must have felt it as well.
“Anderson Family Head, it’s time to complete another part of the condition,” Howard said.
“Someone is bringing the imprisoned wizards here,” Tommy said.
Hearing that, Howard nodded.
On the other hand, I put the ore back inside the storage bracelet.
