Chapter 60
“Argh, finally, I’m back” Rezen said as he hold his farmhouse’s door to support his body
He just wanted to buy some things from the city and he didn’t expect to encounter a terrorist attack!
Fortunately, he was with Rain that protected him and even Neil and his family all survived. They were not included in the number of casualties
“Fantasy world is no joke, whether it be on my own home or the city, no place is completely safe” he continued, his heart still holding fear for the events that happened tonight
Just remembering the terrifying streaks of lightning falling down from the sky and the large number of trees that managed to block them is enough for Rezen’s heart to shudder
High-level mages deserve their reputation!
“Master, it was my fault. My strength is inadequate” Zero apologizes, his spirit at an all-time low
“It’s not your fault but those treacherous members of that so-called Twighlight Beasts… just wait until I got enough strength, I’ll definitely flatten them!”
Rezen wouldn’t be able to sleep tight with such a great danger lurking. Unfortunately, for now, he can only imagine himself uprooting those bastards down to the roots. Only in his imagination could he do that
“Anyway, just help me dig some holes, five would suffice” Rezen said
He wanted to plant the Mushroom Home. And since he doesn’t know how big they are, he planned on planting five around his own house for now
In the meantime, 2 artificial humans could stay in one Mushroom Home, and Zero would continue staying with Rezen
Since Zero was the first ever subordinate that Rezen had, he is attached to him
Zero did as what he was told and Rezen planted the seed which doesn’t look like a seed at all
As soon as he planted it, the seeds were automatically unlocked and each seed cost five thousand mana stones
That’s pretty expensive since quality 3 spirit plants cost a few to several thousands of mana stones yet a seed already costs five thousand mana stones
That might be because the Mushroom Home is a special spirit plant. Not only could people live inside it but it also offers decent protection
When the planting was done, the two finally entered the farmhouse that felt cramped now because of the additional ten people
“Master” the ten artificial humans greeted and Rezen nodded his head at them
“Everyone, you can wait for the Mushroom Home to mature and move there, you can assign yourselves. 2 people for each room” Rezen said and all of them nodded their heads
Rezen gave the clothes and also the other basic necessities to them before he tiredly entered his bedroom, the only room in his farmhouse
He sat on the bed as he fought the exhaustion and the mysterious banana that he obtained earlier appeared on top of his palm
This is the first ever quality 3 mysterious banana that Rezen obtained and he gently peeled it
The sweet fragrant scent of the fruit wafted in the air, entering Rezen’s nostrils and he ate all of it in a few bites
A flood of information soon appeared directly on Rezen’s mind. This information helped him grasp the mysteries of the universe
“Hmm? Crow-type, there was actually such a thing?” Rezen mumbled in disbelief
The mystic gem that he can condense with this new comprehension of his is a crow-type mystic gem
In other words, Rezen can obtain powers related to crows and he can choose what path he wants to specialize on
In truth, these types of gems were pretty supplementary and acts as a support to another mystic gem
The Wolf King’s wolf-type gem is the same. With the combination of his soul-type gem and wolf-type gem, he walks the path of magic beasts enslaver
Even Florine is also like that. Her spirit-type gem let her nourish an elemental spirit, a nature-type specifically that boosts her power over nature spells
Now, Rezen can use another type of gem along with the crow-type gem that he would condense soon
Most of the time, if a mage planned on having more than just one type of mystic gem, they would choose the ones that they can use together, the most common being fire and wind
However, there are times that their comprehension talent made them a bit unlucky
Fire and wind are easy to combine but what if their comprehension talent lies in wind and sun? Lightning and earth? Water and metal?
It’s not like there is no possible combination but the difficulty would rise and the combination isn’t necessarily as strong as the common combination of fire and wind
“Wow… the cherry bombs made me think of plants vs zombies. The poison apple from Snow White. And now crows? Wouldn’t I become a certain anime character? But nah, to hell with the village, I will choose my family”
“As for the combination… I naturally want to choose an enslaver path… this consumes more money and resources. It seems like I have to work harder”
“Hmm, but this is bad. I already have too many mystic gems and spells that I will probably forget most of them”
“Hey, system, are you there? Can you give me like a status screen or something? It’s hard to keep track!”
Rezen was not expecting much but the system actually gave him what he wanted as a blue screen appeared in his vision
[Name: Rezen Virion
Rank: 2nd fusion rank mage
Number of subordinates: 11
Mystic gems: 9
-2nd fusion rank gems: Sun, Water, Earth, Fire, Lightning, Moon, Wind, Soul, Space
Note: please focus on a specific type of gem to access the list of learned spells]
“Hooray! I love you, system! Mwah! Even the Avatar would pale in comparison to me hehe”
Rezen gave his system a kiss to show his gratitude for the simplified status window
Thanks to the 90 mysterious peaches, practically all the mystic gems that Rezen owned are at the same rank as him
As long as he learned a spell at a certain rank, his comprehension would be enough to reach that rank
But of course, the mysterious banana is still better. The peaches only give him one spell and the banana would help even a person as talentless as him when it comes to comprehension the ability to learn and create his own spells
It’s just too bad that the mysterious peaches could give ‘repeat spells’. Even if Rezen already learned the spell, the peaches would still provide him with its information
“Time to condense my crow-type gem. Fortunately, I still have some slots for mystic gems. If not, I would have to plant thousands of rainbow clementines again” Rezen excitedly said to himself
Just imagining that he would control thousands of crows already excites him

The next day
“Damn… is this unhealthy or what? Since I have the recovery pills, I practically don’t need to sleep anymore” Rezen muttered with a sigh
He hasn’t slept yesterday and also the day before that since he was busy with farming and cultivation. And today, Rezen also has to make his plans into action
The first on the list would be his Artificial Humans. As soon as he got the first Life Seed, he already has some plans for them
He wants some of them to dual-cultivate just like he would do after he got enough time
Since Rezen already formed connections with the Headmaster and Vice Headmaster of that Academy, it should be easy to enroll his subordinates. That’s even included in their contract
Some of the artificial humans would also walk the path of mages!
Although they have inherited memories, those memories were not as effective as Rezen’s peaches and banana
They are literally just memories and although they can engrave tattoos at rank 3 easily, for rank 5th and 6th, it would be harder. Not to mention the legendary 7th rank
There really was a dividing line between ranks 3 and 4!
Memories are simply memories. They can recreate the things from their memories but it doesn’t mean that they have completely comprehended them
These artificial humans also have to go through their memories to comprehend the power of the elements if they want to improve further and reach the legendary 7th rank
Rezen planned that some of his subordinates would focus on the mage path. As for their tattoos… there are others that would focus on that path that can engrave the tattoos for them
As such, Rezen chose five of the ten Artificial Humans and the process was a bit of a headache
It’s like these artificial humans all lived for the sake of Rezen. That is a good thing of course but it also meant that they are too passive
If Rezen would ask them anything, they would just answer that it would be up to him
Even the choosing of the ones that would learn to become a mage has to be decided through rock, paper, scissors!
For them, if Rezen wants to make them a mage then they would be a mage. As simple as that!
