Chapter 168
Fang Bai fell silent.
“I finally understand why there would be a Temple next to a Mage Tower.
If I had a Temple like this, so capable, I’d want one too.”
Fang Bai was stunned.
“Gods, which genius deity came up with this form, this method?”
“With this function, the Contract God only needs to maintain sufficient credibility and will never lack believers.
No, no, that’s not right. It should be said that it will never lack users.
Contracts are needed everywhere, it’s a rigid demand.
There’s no need for missionary work at all. Just maintain credibility, and there will be an endless stream of people coming to establish contracts.
Mages?
Even Mages have to come. Such a convenient and effortless function is not to be missed.
Truly ingenious, no wonder it’s surrounded by so many shops.”
Fang Bai’s projection flickered continuously to avoid the skeletons within the Temple.
After circling around, Fang Bai entered through a window. Behind the office inside the window was an altar.
There might have been something on the altar originally, but now it was empty.
Returning to the window, Fang Bai saw a stack of contract documents, all blank.
The so-called contract documents were actually just standard white paper, where the contracting parties and the content of the contract could be freely written.
Flipping through the contract documents, Fang Bai saw some clauses at the back.
It roughly stated that the Contract God would not pursue losses caused by the other party’s breach of contract, but would only punish the act of breach. Corresponding losses should be filed and handled in court.
In addition, there were clauses stating that each breach of contract would leave a record in the Contract Temple, and that this record could be checked before signing a contract. Fang Bai was stunned after reading them.
“There’s even a credit inquiry function?”
Fang Bai felt that what he encountered today was simply too outrageous, directly shattering his entire perception of deities.
Fang Bai looked at these contract documents for a long time without saying a word, then looked at the desktop by the window.
There were some buttons on the desktop and a place labeled “Input Port.”
Fang Bai sensed it with his Mental Power and found that this input port was not for inputting elemental power, but Mental Power could enter unimpeded and touch an interface.
Looking at the words “Print” displayed on the button, a possibility emerged in Fang Bai’s mind. He placed a blank sheet of paper on an area of the desktop, focused his thoughts, input a sentence with his Mental Power, and then pressed the button.
There was no response.
Fang Bai looked up and immediately understood that the spell architecture within the Temple might have failed, so this could not be activated and used.
Fang Bai let out a long sigh and collected all the blank contract documents from the windows.
“I don’t know if this Contract God still exists.
I don’t know if this contract document is still useful.”
Fang Bai pondered slightly, and directly brought all the contract documents in front of his main body with his Mental Power, putting them into his backpack.
Fang Bai then continued to walk inside. The interior seemed to be the main hall, or perhaps a large office.
Rows of desks were arranged below, and a sign with the words “Contract” written on it hung on the wall directly ahead, as if a monitor was watching the office.
Fang Bai swept his Mental Power and found that each desk was integrated with various magic circles, each room was integrated with various magic circles, and the entire Temple was enveloped in a central magic circle, or perhaps multiple ones.
The Temple’s construction materials could block Mental Power perception, so Fang Bai could only sense the presence of a massive magic circle inside, but couldn’t distinguish how many there were.
However, Fang Bai could be sure of one thing: there was a central hub for the large magic circle within the Temple.
Fang Bai came to the front of the wall where the words “Contract” were written.
“All the elemental fluctuations converge here. Behind this are densely packed elemental pathways.
But there are no elemental fluctuations below these two words. So, are these magic circles only connected to this name?”
“Or is this not just a name, but a terminal used to connect to the deity?
A deity terminal as the core supporting the magic circle within this Temple.”
Fang Bai pondered slightly, then shook his head.
No matter what was inside, it didn’t matter to Fang Bai now.
Fang Bai could only see, but couldn’t obtain it. He preferred things he could get his hands on. He would have time to tinker with those he couldn’t get later.
After thinking for a moment, Fang Bai’s projection dispersed, and his Mental Power directly immersed itself into the furniture, desks, and office supplies within the Temple.
The Temple’s building materials were too good, Fang Bai’s Mental Power was blocked, but not within these desks, office supplies, and furniture.
Fang Bai didn’t believe that in a mage civilization that had developed mage technology to this point, there would be places where magic circles weren’t used!
Sure enough, after his Mental Power immersed itself in these things, what he sensed were densely packed magic circles, densely packed spell nodes, and intertwined elemental pathways. Fang Bai was overjoyed.
His Mental Power directly sensed the magic circles and spell models here, recording them all into the storage dot matrix.
Fang Bai’s projection then appeared inside a shop.
Following the magic circles within the shop, Fang Bai easily found a small box.
Opening the small box and looking at the liquid elemental power inside, Fang Bai smiled.
“The boxes in this shop should have been taken by Li Jian and the others.
This should be the energy core of the spell architecture, but this… is it liquid elemental power?”
Fang Bai was slightly puzzled.
He had never seen or sensed this kind of elemental power before, but it felt very familiar.
“Is this… fire elemental power? Earth elemental power? Water elemental power? Wind elemental power?”
Fang Bai seemed to see the characteristics of all elemental powers in this liquid elemental power.
It seemed to be a summary of all elemental powers, but it was also just one type of elemental power…
“Wait, I think I’ve seen this kind of elemental power before…”
Fang Bai thought for a moment and remembered.
“I’ve seen it before when researching spell architecture. This is the type of elemental power that operates within spell architecture.”
“So, this shouldn’t be a type of elemental power that exists in nature.
It’s a universal elemental power created by this civilization using technological means.”
Fang Bai’s thoughts moved, and he immediately mobilized this elemental power to construct a spell model and cast a spell.
Blood-red Shield!
Lightning Spell!
Fireball!
Light Spell!
One spell after another, no matter what element the spell was, this elemental power could be used.
“It really is universally applicable to all attributes.”
Fang Bai couldn’t help but look at the box again, at the liquid elemental power inside.
