"The players will arrive in a year. Before that, I need to visit the other ten continents to collect materials rich in energy."
Lole closed the game forum and organized his future plans in his mind, "I can focus on collecting the Power of Origin for another eleven months, and then take a break."
"The current primary goal is to try and acquire sequence panel Origin Points. If the energy materials from other continents are useless, I'll have to see if the players can provide any."
"I can wait a bit longer before initiating the Space Faction, at least until I officially achieve the Fourth Ring."
Before becoming a Fourth Ring, his focus was primarily on harvesting from players and Space Origin, leaving no time for anything else.
The beta players would only be present for two years, so he needed to explore thoroughly during this period to determine if he could obtain Origin Points from them.
Having planned his next steps, Lole closed his eyes, allowing his Spiritual Power to delve into the Origin Container within his Sea of Consciousness, heading towards the Sea of Origin.
...
In the blink of an eye, eleven months passed.
"The time is about right." Lole returned from the Sea of Origin, opened his eyes, exited his residence, and used his Spiritual Power to touch a corner of the Origin Container in his Sea of Consciousness.
"Sssss-la—"
A spatial fissure abruptly opened, pulling Lole inside. In the next instant, he appeared seventeen thousand miles south of the Cooper Wizard Tower.
For this energy material collection, he decided to start from the Mor Continent north of the Betula Continent and finish with the Milton Continent.
...
In the central Golden Wizard Tower of the Mor Continent, Morven Burns looked at the over thirty thousand light screens before him, each lit with green, red, or gray light, and calmly said, "Sixty percent agree, the proposal passes. I hereby announce the adjournment of this council session."
As Morven's words concluded, one after another, the light screens extinguished.
"I wonder when Legislator Lole will arrive." After all the light screens had turned off, Morven sat down on a bench, gazing northward, muttering to himself.
Since noticing the task posted by Lole, he had prepared a variety of energy substances kept by his father in the Wizard Tower.
Additionally, he had accepted only one task to serve as a marker.
He later gathered all the energy materials that other wizards submitted to the central Wizard Tower into his Space Ring, waiting to present them when Legislator Lole arrived from across the Endless Sea to the Mor Continent.
If Lole favored certain materials and they were in stock, he didn't mind exhausting them to express his gratitude.
If it weren't for Lole's intervention across the Endless Sea, whether he could have held out for victory on the frontline was uncertain.
This favor, naturally, had to be remembered.
"Huh?!" Just as Morven was preoccupied with thoughts of properly thanking Lole, he suddenly noticed a Communication Ball in his Space Ring emitting a Spiritual Power fluctuation.
"What's the matter?" Morven focused his Spiritual Power into the Communication Ball that was emitting faint Spiritual Power to inquire.
"Mo... Morven, Your Highness, Legislator Lole has arrived at our Wizard Tower!!" The Communication Ball transmitted an excited and enthusiastic message.
"Alright, I'll come down right away." Morven's eyes shone brightly upon hearing this, and he immediately stood up, bypassing the stairs. He retrieved a Golden Token from his Space Ring and placed it against the golden wall of the tower behind him.
"Wham-Ka—"
With a dull sound, a portal suddenly appeared in the golden tower wall, opening quickly with a heavy sound.
Meanwhile, the news of Lole's arrival spread throughout the entire Golden Wizard Tower, causing the entire Tower to buzz with excitement.
One by one, wizards clad in Wizard Robes of various colors quickly descended the tower, wishing to catch a glimpse of Legislator Lole's true visage.
In the sky above.
"Huh?!" Just emerging from the spatial fissure, cloaked in Void Realm Witchcraft, Lole glanced down at the first floor of the Wizard Tower and felt a bit peculiar.
Below in the first floor of the Wizard Tower, wizards wearing robes of different colors were pouring out, looking up at the sky where he stood, their eyes full of fervor and awe.
"These folks, could they be coming out to welcome me?" Lole pondered.
The external display of his Void Realm Witchcraft had, with the restoration of the Continent Communication Device, long been communicated across the eleven continents by the Wizard Alliance Headquarters.
Every wizard with a laboratory was likely aware.
Therefore, if he appeared in lively places, being discovered by wizards and causing such a sensation was no surprise.
Just as Lole was considering, the wizards below made another move.
"Greetings, Legislator Lole." All the wizards who exited the Wizard Tower bowed towards the sky where he was.
"There's no need for formalities, everyone." Lole smiled and transmitted his words through perception.
Saying that, he was about to fly down when he saw a figure clad in a Golden Wizard Robe rapidly descend from above, flying toward him.
With a quick scan of his perception, Lole recognized the figure as Morven Burns, the child of Yiao Burns, the Gold Element Fifth Ring Legislator.
He recognized this person not through prior knowledge from the forum in his previous life.
Rather, he learned about him while resting from harvesting the Sea of Origin by perusing the profiles of highly esteemed and talented wizards of this era.
Seeing this person, he did not move further.
If nothing was amiss, this person should have the items he needed.
"Hoo—"
The middle-aged man in a golden robe flew swiftly to Lole's front and halted, bowing in respect, "Greetings, Legislator Lole. We are immensely grateful to Legislator Lole for previously slaying the fifth-tier demon and saving Mor Continent."
"There's no need for formalities on behalf of Speaker Morven." Lole waved his hand, asking, "I am here to collect the materials rewarded for the task posted earlier; where might those materials be?"
"They are all with me."
Morven replied quickly, simultaneously presenting a white Space Bracelet to Lole, "These materials are all the substances containing Elemental Energy from our Mor Continent."
"If Legislator Lole needs a large quantity of any, I will provide to the best of my ability."
"Thank you." Lole nodded with a smile, accepting the Space Bracelet, and with his Spiritual Power, took a glance inside.
Inside the Space Bracelet, alongside the 187 energy materials required for the task, there were an additional 574 other energy materials.
Some of these energy materials overlapped with those already in Lole's Space Ring, but 153 were unique.
Furthermore, the elemental energy fluctuations in these unique materials were much stronger, indicating they were of superior quality.
"Please, there's no need to be so formal." Morven said with a bitter smile, "These things don't come close to repaying the favor you did for me and the Mor Continent."
"Alright, let me first try if these materials are useful." Lole casually said, then unperturbedly began testing each material under the watchful eyes of many wizards.
Given Lole's current status, there was no need to conceal such an action.
Even if he drained all elements from the energy materials in public, the wizards would self-rationalize that he was enhancing Fusion Witchcraft or the like, as some Fusion Witchcraft indeed required various exotic energies as supplements.
It's what one might call having a Great Scholar present reason for me!
