A Wizard's Secret Chapter 260

The Dark Magic Space was huge; Wizard Heusius was still introducing the place to Merlin in detail .

Without realizing it, Wizard Heusius had brought Merlin to a place that was densely etched with runes . At this place, Merlin saw a figure who wore a black Wizard's robe . The figure was tall, but he was sitting cross-legged on the floor, meditating . His entire being did not give off any aura at all – just like a dead man .

Wizard Heusius halted and spoke softly to Merlin, "This is the Guardian Wizard of the Dark Magic Space . "

"Guardian Wizard?"

Merlin was full of questions, but Heusius' expression remained grim as he said, "That's right . Guardian Wizard . Other than Didimoss, there's probably no one in the Dark Magic Region who knows about his name and his origin . The Guardian Wizard has been here ever since I joined the Dark Magic Region . He never goes out and has always stayed in the Dark Magic Space, protecting this place . He may even be related to the Great Wizard Fidel…"

It was apparent that Heusius held a lot of respect toward the mysterious Guardian Wizard, while Merlin was slightly surprised . The Guardian Wizard did not look old, but little did Merlin expect him to have stayed in the Dark Magic Region for such a long time .

"Alright, Merlin . Take out your Pandora Demon Ability . If you want to bring anything out of the Dark Magic Space, you must gain the permission of the Guardian Wizard . Without it, no one can bring anything out of here . "

Merlin nodded . He took out Destructive Wind which he had gotten from Weiss, from his ring .

Wizard Heusius did not even look at it and directly passed it to the Guardian Wizard . He said to the Guardian Wizard respectfully, "Guardian Wizard, this is Merlin, an official member of the Dark Magic Region . He has obtained a Pandora Demon Ability by luck and wishes to exchange for another Pandora Demon Ability with the Dark Magic Region . Please have a look at it, Sir . "

The Guardian Wizard who had kept his eyes closed slowly opened his eyes . After receiving Destructive Wind, he took a brief look at it and said monotonously, "We don't have this Pandora Demon Ability in the Dark Magic Space . You can exchange for a Pandora Demon Ability of equal value here!"

After saying that, the Guardian Wizard waved his hands and countless runes appeared in his hands . Slowly, a door appeared in the Dark Magic Space .

Upon seeing the Guardian Wizard had drawn so many runes effortlessly, Merlin was overwhelmed with shock . Although the Dark Magic Region specialized in Runology, even the Seventh-level Spell Casters who specialized in the study of runes would not be able to set up a Runic Magic Circle as effortlessly as that .

Ignoring other aspects, the Guardian Wizard had to have a deep understanding of Runology .

"Enter . That's the place where the Pandora Demon Abilities are kept!"

Heusius revealed a smile and stared at the door as he said with mixed feelings .

Merlin nodded, then walked through the door .

As soon as he walked in, Merlin adapted quite well to his surroundings . There were some bright lights that lit the space up like daylight .

In it, there were many small white jade boxes floating in mid-air . The boxes were shining, making them look dreamy .

"The Pandora Demon Abilities in the thirteen jade boxes on your left are of equal value with Destructive Wind . You can choose from them! However, you can only open one box, so choose wisely . Once opened, you must memorize the cultivation method of the Pandora Demon Ability stored in the jade box in two hours . After two hours, you must leave this place!"

Just when Merlin was glancing at the boxes, a chilly voice came from behind him . The Guardian Wizard had entered through the door since who-knows-when .

Merlin was listening closely to his words . This was the rule in the Dark Magic Space . Even the Seventh-level Spell Caster must adhere to the rules here, so Merlin set his gaze to the thirteen jade boxes on his left .

"Swoosh!"

The Guardian Wizard flipped his palm around and a jade box appeared in his hands . Then, he placed Destructive Wind into the box and etched some mysterious runes in mid-air that were roughly stamped onto the box .

After sealing the box, the Guardian Wizard placed it aside . The thirteen jade boxes on their left had now become fourteen in total . This meant that the Dark Magic Region now possessed fourteen Pandora Demon Abilities which were of the same level as Destructive Wind .

This was a large number, but it still could not be compared to Ozmu yet .

Merlin came directly to these jade boxes and carefully scanned them . There were mysterious runes etched on the jade boxes . As soon as he extended his Mind Power toward it, he could read a brief introduction about the Pandora Demon Ability which contained in the jade box .

Merlin now possessed Glacial Finger, Fiery Collapse, and Darkness Heart . However, both Glacial Finger and Fiery Collapse were Offensive Pandora Demon Abilities . Even Darkness Heart could be used as an Offensive Pandora Demon Ability .

Thus, Merlin really wished to have a Defensive Pandora Demon Ability now .

Meanwhile, he should not choose the most powerful Pandora Demon Ability . He should go for the Pandora Demon Ability that could be incorporated into his spells just like Darkness Heart . He should not underestimate the mere two stages of cultivation . Once he had reached Fourth-level and Darkness Heart had been incorporated into his Darkness-type spells, the power of his spells would reach an unimaginable height .

Moreover, during the most glorious age of Spell Casters, the strong Pandora Demon Abilities were always the ones that could be incorporated into the spells . Only those capable of being incorporated into the spells were said to be the most powerful Pandora Demon Ability .

Merlin's Glacial Finger and Fiery Collapse could not be incorporated into his spells, so they were not considered very powerful in this sense .

Hence, Merlin first decided that he would pick an Earth-type Pandora Demon Ability . Three of the jade boxes contained this type . However, Merlin continued to filter them and took out an Offensive Earth-type Pandora Demon Ability .

Finally, he was left with two Pandora Demon Abilities which were suitable for Merlin . Both were Defensive Pandora Demon Abilities and had only two stages .

These two Pandora Demon Abilities were called "Impeccable Shield" and "Fuse Earth" .

"Impeccable Shield" as its name suggested, was a Pandora Demon Ability which could gather endless Earth Elements to form a gigantic shield with terrifying defensive ability . However, the first stage of "Impeccable Shield" was comparable to a Fourth-level Defensive spell, so it was considered somewhat powerful .

Merlin was already tempted to pick "Impeccable Shield" but he was moved when he saw the Pandora Demon Ability in the other box .

"Fuse Earth", the Pandora Demon Ability with a weird name, was the Pandora Demon Ability which was most suitable for Merlin .

He could begin the cultivation of Fuse Earth as soon as he had constructed his First-level spell, Guardian Monument . Moreover, he could easily incorporate the Pandora Demon Ability into his spells should he succeeded in cultivating it . It appeared to be similar to Darkness Heart, but there was a distinct difference between them .

Darkness Heart was known as the most favorable ability to have in conjunction with Darkness-type spells in ancient times . If one cultivated Darkness Heart, one could express a large strength no matter what sort of Darkness-type spells one possessed .

However, Fuse Earth was different where the Pandora Demon Ability was only specific to Earth-type Defensive spells . It could only be incorporated into Earth-type Defensive spells, thus enhancing the strength of the spells .

Furthermore, Fuse Earth had a unique point; it could be merged with the spells in its first stage unlike Darkness Heart which could only be merged with Fourth-level spells .

With Fuse Earth, Merlin would be able to greatly enhance his defensive ability . At that time, his overall strength could be improved, and he could completely overcome his lack of defensive ability without the use of bowknot-shaped Enhancing casting tool .

Fuse Earth was a match made in heaven for Merlin . Thus, after seeing this Pandora Demon Ability, Merlin chose Fuse Earth without a moment of hesitation .

"Guardian Wizard, I'll pick Fuse Earth!"

Merlin turned around and said to the Guardian Wizard .

The Guardian Wizard took a nonchalant gaze at the jade box and said in a calm tone, "Are you sure you want to choose Fuse Earth? Once you've made the decision, you can no longer change your mind . "

"Yes, I'm sure . Please reveal the jade box, Sir . "

Merlin replied with a determined look .

"Alright! Two hours later, you must place Fuse Earth back into the jade box . "

Thereafter, the Guardian Wizard stretched his palm wide and mysterious runes flew out from his palm and rapidly dived into the box . The runes on the jade box began to shake violently, then slowly disappeared from sight .

Although he only had two hours, it was more than enough for Merlin to read the cultivation method . Since he had the Matrix, he could easily memorize the cultivation method within a few minutes .

"The Matrix, begin recording!"

Merlin initiated the Matrix in his mind . After everything was set up, Merlin then slowly opened Fuse Earth and carefully skimmed through it .

"Fuse Earth had two stages . In the first stage, one must've constructed a First-level Earth-type Defensive spell . In the second stage, one must've constructed a Fourth-level Earth-type Defensive spell .

"Cultivating Fuse Earth successfully required that it be coupled with the use of Lava Soil!

"Should Fuse Earth be cultivated successfully, the strength of the Earth-type Defensive spell could be increased by three to six-folds!"

Other than the introduction of Fuse Earth, the remaining was the detailed cultivation method of Fuse Earth . After reading through it, he frowned slightly .

It was not difficult to reach the first prerequisite of the cultivation since Merlin had constructed a First-level Earth-type Defensive spell, Guardian Monument . However, he had to have an item called Lava Soil to successfully cultivate Fuse Earth .

This was quite difficult since Merlin had not heard of Lava Soil before . It had to be difficult to find .

The successful cultivation of Fuse Earth only resulted in a three to six-folds increase of the spell's strength . This was far less than the five to ten-folds increase effect of Darkness Heart .

However, Fuse Earth had an overall excellent effect . After all, Darkness Heart was considered a well-known Pandora Demon Ability . Many Pandora Demon Abilities that had three stages could not even be compared to Darkness Heart .

"Alright, it's time . Place Fuse Earth back into the jade box and you may leave now . "

The emotionless Guardian Wizard suddenly spoke in a firm tone .
