Chapter 292: Fire Element Plane

Chapter 292 The Fire Element Plane

On December third, Li Wei received royalties sent by the Spark Literature Society from the Aster Guild.

The November royalties totaled one hundred and forty gold coins.

Calculated in copper, it counted as earning a million per month.

The construction of Maple City burned with fervor.

Gus brought fresh news; Ots had allied with Cold Moon City against Frozen Earth City.

Now Frozen Earth City had been besieged by the great army of the Beixuan Kingdom for half a month.

Yet they still resisted stubbornly.

Ots did not rush, simply maintaining the blockade around Frozen Earth City.

Frozen Earth City had been isolated completely.

Located deep within the heartland of the Beixuan Kingdom, enemies surrounded them on all sides.

Their former ally, the Machiel Kingdom, dared not engage in large-scale conflict due to fear that Beixuan was still under divine protection.

They could only watch helplessly as Frozen Earth City was besieged, unable to rescue them.

Even if they wished to save them, they were powerless.

The Beixuan Kingdom had become a unified whole.

Unless the Machiel Kingdom could punch through Beixuan, they would have to abandon this ally, Frozen Earth City.

Gus predicted Frozen Earth City would surrender before long.

Now Ots did not wish to make a big move, merely surrounding them without striking.

Everything prioritized the development of Maple City.

Maple City was now the capital of the Beixuan Kingdom, incredibly prosperous.

It was nearly catching up to the capital of the Machiel Kingdom.

In Gus's description, every aspect of Maple City was thriving.

Maple City could be reckoned as half of Li Wei's native land.

When night fell deep, he would miss it too.

On December ninth, Li Wei perfected the Invisible Armor spell to the third tier completion level.

Thirty-six layers of armor became seventy-two layers of armor.

It could withstand two or three fifth-tier Meteor spells directly.

In terms of stacking armor, temporarily no one was Li Wei's rival.

Li Wei surmised that evolving the Invisible Armor spell to the fourth tier might shatter the triple-digit armor stack limit.

At that time, his defense would be even more terrifying.

Although the Invisible Armor's defense was high, Li Wei understood stacking armor was not invincible.

Many spells could directly ignore the Invisible Armor.

Mental spells, Curse spells, and Soul spells were common abilities capable of ignoring shields.

Regarding this, Li Wei currently had no particularly good solution.

He could only think of ways to see if there would be a chance later to evolve mental, soul, and curse defense capabilities into the Invisible Armor.

December tenth.

Learning Li Wei was going to the Fire Element Plane, Valen personally escorted him to the Element Tower.

Fionridis saw Li Wei walking together with Valen, and he was somewhat surprised.

"Li Wei, is your mentor Master Valen?" Fionridis asked.

Li Wei nodded, "Yes."

He was somewhat surprised by Fionridis's address, not expecting even he to call Valen Master.

Valen looked at Fionridis and said, "Professor Fionridis."

The two exchanged greetings.

They appeared to know each other, their relationship significant.

After instructing some precautions and telling Li Wei what not to do in the Fire Element Plane, Valen watched him walk into the Element Tower.

The two stood outside.

Fionridis asked with surprise, "Didn't you say you wouldn't take apprentices? Why choose to accept Li Wei as a disciple?"

Valen said, "A request from an old friend."

"Old friend?" Fionridis looked at Valen with a trace of surprise.

Valen shook his head and turned to leave.

"If you do not know him, then do not inquire."

Fionridis fell silent.

To make Valen break his own word, this old friend's background must be considerable.

He turned his head toward the direction of the Element Tower.

"Is there anything special about Li Wei's identity?"

Fionridis returned to the Hall of Truth, pulled out Li Wei's dossier, and read through it meticulously again. He had seen all the contents before, yet previously discovered nothing peculiar.

Reading it again, he noticed a name.

Torresta.

This name was very strange, yet felt strangely familiar.

Fionridis confirmed he did not know anyone named Torresta.

But he thought he must have seen or heard this name somewhere.

Otherwise, he would not produce a feeling of being both strange and familiar.

Thus, he asked others to inquire about clues regarding Torresta.

Li Wei walked into the Element Tower hall and was led to the seventh floor of the tower.

From here, they traveled to the Fire Element Plane.

Including Li Wei, there were only five people traveling together.

Two students from the Purple Class, two senior instructors.

Originally the quota was already set, three Purple Class students and two senior instructors.

Li Wei joined suddenly, squeezing out one person's quota.

Leaving that person to wait until next year to go to the Fire Element Plane.

A student of the Purple Class glanced at the magic badge on Li Wei's chest, his expression turning surprised.

"A Red Class student? On what basis could he displace Esca?"

"I heard he obtained this opportunity because he made an exceptionally significant contribution in the Hall of Truth."

"What ability could a guy from the Red Class possibly have to make such a major contribution in the Hall of Truth?"

Although the two were curious how Li Wei accomplished it, they did not come to cause trouble for Li Wei.

No matter what, they were students of the Purple Class; it was not yet their turn to pick a fight with Li Wei.

So what if Esca had been displaced?

Anyway, it was Esca who was displaced; let him go find trouble with Li Wei himself.

They certainly would not meddle in other people's business.

An elder wearing a red-golden mage robe walked before the crowd and said, "The Fire Element Plane is extremely dangerous; do not use magic casually after arriving, flee first when encountering danger, fighting is the worst choice..."

"Alright, what needed saying, you already understood before, prepare to begin teleportation."

Li Wei felt a slight tightening in his heart.

The elder activated the inter-plane teleportation array within the hall.

Hummm!

Li Wei felt the magical elements around him fluctuating violently.

In the next second, a spatial rift appeared in the center of the hall.

Scorching breath surged out from within the spatial rift.

Opposite lay the Fire Element Plane.

Two senior Fifth-Rank instructors walked at the very front, followed by two Purple Class students, and finally Li Wei.

After Li Wei stepped into the spatial rift, the spatial rift closed.

Darkness before his eyes, Li Wei felt he had arrived at a brand new world.

He opened his eyes, and a volcano erupting appeared before him.

Everywhere flowed molten lava, and fire element spirits were visible everywhere.

From the depths of the volcano came even more a chilling aura.

That was the aura of a Fire Element Lord.

An ordinary Fire Element Lord is a Sixth-Rank monster.

A powerful Fire Element Lord is a Legendary Monster.

In the volcanic environment, Fire Element Lords are nearly invincible, possessing infinite power.

Not only were Fire Element Lords greatly strengthened, but throughout the entire Fire Element Plane, the power of all fire element spirits and fire-type magical beasts increased significantly.

This was also the reason the elder reminded everyone to avoid combat as much as possible.

A fire-type magical beast that might be Second-Rank in the Main World could unleash Third-Rank combat power here.

Of course, fire-type spells were also enhanced.

Li Wei sensed the highly active, high-concentration fire elements in the air of the Fire Element Plane.

Judging by this, the power of fire-type spells would at least double here.

But considering the monsters of the Fire Element Plane all possess extremely high fire resistance.

Even with fire-type spell power doubled, one would gain no advantage here.

Rumble rumble rumble!

Li Wei looked up; the volcano erupted, molten lava rolling down.

The four people ahead not only did not dodge, but instead advanced towards the molten lava.

There are treasures inside the molten lava!
