I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 556 - 391 Qualifications of the Floating City Controller_2

"Your talent is enough to promote you to become a Legendary Mage, even among the many mages of the once Azela Floating City, you are among the top seeds,"

"These are within the scope of my considerations."

Although Azela's expression was calm, she still meticulously explained the reasons to Lis.

Ah, this...

Lis was somewhat at a loss, he had never felt this when borrowing Magic Books from the Great Library.

The crucial point was that Black Cat never mentioned anything about this matter.

However, thinking about Black Cat's lazy demeanor, it was very possible that it had not noticed this situation at all.

But with this, perhaps he had a chance to control this Floating City ahead of time?

"So, do I now have the qualifications to control this Azela Floating City?"

Lis looked at Azela in front of him and asked earnestly.

"Of course not."

The young girl shook her head, quashing Lis's unrealistic idea.

"Although your talent is outstanding, you are only a Gold-level Mage after all."

"To control the Azela Floating City, the minimum requirement is to break through to Legendary status, otherwise you won't even have the qualifications to control the core of the Floating City, and its intense power would directly burst you."

"...Alright."

Lis felt a headache, so it seemed he could completely give up the attempt to control the Floating City ahead of time.

After all, according to the young girl's statement, without Legendary strength, he couldn't control the power of the Floating City Core at all.

Lis did not want to risk dying, not in a hurry to save this bit of time.

"Then why have you appeared before me?"

"Just to tell me all this?"

Lis looked curiously at the young girl in front of him.

Surely she hadn't come all this way just to notify him that he was on the list of candidates for the next Controller of the Floating City?

"Yes, more importantly, to meet you."

"Although Miserla's Core is still operational, I won't last much longer," Azela said slowly.

"What do you mean?"

Lis looked at Azela in surprise, this felt like she was giving her last words.

He had asked Black Cat before, and for their Magic Intelligent Life, there basically isn't a concept of lifespan limitation, as long as the Magic Imprints that they exist on are still intact, they won't disappear.

"My core is damaged beyond repair."

"The Floating City is still running normally because I'm barely maintaining it."

"If I finally collapse and disappear, the entire Floating City will go out of control. By then, it's hard to tell what will become of the whole Floating City."

"Over the years, you are the first person to meet the requirements for a successor, so I came out to meet you, which is within my authority."

Lis furrowed his brows slightly; he had never noticed such a situation.

In his previous life, in the near future, Risa would control this Floating City.

If what the young girl Azela was saying was true, the entire Floating City's controller being a Legendary Mage, but its normal operation must rely on the help of Magic Intelligent Life.

Ordinary Magic Intelligent Life might not be able to maintain such a vast Floating City.

This means that only Gladies-level Magic Intelligent Life could fully unleash the power of the Floating City.

Therefore, in the future, because of the abnormalities of Magic Intelligent Life Azela herself, Risa was unable to fully use the power of the Floating City, which would lead to it remaining over Treasure Pearl Sea for an extended period.

Azela, noticing Lis's expression and thinking he was worried about not having enough time, explained:

"You don't need to worry too much, I can feel your vibrant life force, I assume you are still very young."

"Although I am destined to disappear, if I enter a dormant state, I can still maintain it for about a thousand years."

"This time is enough for you to break through to become a Legendary Mage, and when you control this Floating City, all permissions of the Floating City Controller will be opened to you."

"You have time to cultivate a new Gladies-level Magic Intelligent Life."

"And it's not at all a hassle, that Black Cat you follow can completely take my place."

Lis sensed Azela's goodwill, but did not explain his just now thought.

"I feel that you are quite confident about my breakthrough into Legendary tier, aren't you?"

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.

Lis spread his hands and said with a light laugh.

Azela nodded slightly, a faint smile finally appearing on her face.

"Of course, the information and intelligence I have stored let me deduce the probability of you becoming a Legendary Mage."

"How much is it?"

Lis asked curiously.

"80%, the remaining 20% accounts for the probability of your accidental death,"

Azela said calmly.

"Generally speaking, even geniuses with high talent have at least a fifty percent chance of dying due to various abnormal circumstances."

"But the Legendary Assassin by your side, his relationship with you clearly exceeds ordinary subordinate relationships."

"This led me to deduce that he is very likely to intervene to ensure your safety, thus the high probability of your breakthrough into Legendary tier."

As she spoke, a new, tall figure emerged next to Azela.

Lis glanced and realized that it was his own boss, Joyce.

"Well, it seems your intelligence gathering is quite comprehensive."

Lis shrugged and looked at Azela.

"So, what should I do if I want to take control of this Floating City?"

"You don't need to do anything, just continue to enhance your strength until you become a Legendary Mage,"

Azela said earnestly,

"According to [Azela Floating City Final Clauses] Article One, as long as you can bypass the defensive measures of the tower and come before me, you can become the new master of this Floating City."

"If the requirements are not met, it would be outright impossible to come into contact with my presence."

"Although Azela Floating City has been attacked, the protection in the core area is still quite intact, and Legendary elemental guards are operating normally."

"According to my judgment, as long as you achieve Legendary status, you and that Legendary Assassin could together break through the defense of the first two Legendary elemental guards of the tower."

"In this, I will not give you any direct help."

"However, I can now enhance your permissions in the Floating City, allowing you access to some facilities of Azela Floating City to expedite your breakthrough to Legendary tier."

"I see~"

Lis was a bit curious, wondering what else in this Floating City, besides that Great Library, could assist him.

"I will open a secret room located beneath the Azela Great Library where Miserla's Core circuit core is stored, and temporarily activate the hidden settings of the circuit core where you can meditate and practice."

"Every secret room storing Miserla's Core circuit core is one of the most important places in the Floating City, and the danger of the circuit core prevents normal mages from withstanding it, so it's generally not open to those below Legendary tier."

Lis nodded, the location of the Great Library was also marked on Lis's map, obviously there were also similar secret rooms there.

Such abundant magic power indeed provides significant enhancement to the meditation of normal mages, while momentarily eliminating the fatal temptations and dangers brought by Miserla's Core circuit core.

But... Lis was not a normal mage.

Meditating in this area is indeed crucial for ordinary mages, but for Lis, it meant doubling the experience gained from meditation.

For Lis, who could harvest players' experience, it was merely icing on the cake.

Comparatively, the Miserla's Core circuit core interested him more, as it could greatly enhance his understanding of Magic Runes and Magic Elements.

As long as his spiritual power remained full, and he established proper emergency measures and warnings, this risk was controllable.

After conveying his needs to Azela, her expression became strange, but ultimately she did not refuse Lis's request.

She would not activate the hidden settings of the circuit core, allowing Lis to freely experiment with and study it.

Perhaps she had never seen such a bold Gold-level Mage?

"I will open the Elemental Pool of the Four Elements Tower; you can enter the Element Tower to undergo [Elemental Refinement]."

"The [Rolando Magic Workshop] in the inner city will be open to you, and you can use this Magic Workshop."

"[Modest Blast Test Field], [Azera Arcane Garden] are also open to you; your permissions in these places have been raised to Gold level."

Azela said softly, seemingly indifferent as though these places that ordinary Gold-level Mages yearned for meant little to her.
