Chapter 615: The Power of ‘Wind’ and ‘Fire’ (1)

“Hey, old Alexandre, it’s lunchtime now!” Upon hearing the butler’s words, before the master could even speak, the fat Gail had already announced in dissatisfaction.

When the guest was shooting his big mouth, the owner of the manor looked down from the stairs and caught the eyes of Wizard Li God, who was in the living room. At once, his calm face suddenly became pale.

His body stiffened as he grew silent for a long time. Then, with a hoarse and dry voice, he finally said, “Alexandre, it’s noon now. Bring Bigail and the rest to the dining room for lunch. Mosha, help me entertain the guests. Mr. Zhang Lisheng, do you want to take a look at your fortune? Please come with me.”

“Saganso, it’s already noon now. You don’t have to…” Bigail took out his pocket watch and turned his head to talk out of place again. However, his words were lodged in his throat when he saw the grave expression on his friend’s face, an expression that he had never seen before.

The strange expression of the owner also made the atmosphere in the whole room subtly change out of the blue. A cute, young, tall girl stood up from the group of young people who were drinking tea while chatting idly and looked at Saganso with a worried expression before asking, “Father, what’s wrong? Has anything bad happened?”

“It’s nothing, my little angel,” Saganso looked back at the girl and forced a faint smile on his stiff face. “I’m only going to help this guest look at his fortune. Go have your lunch. I’ll join you in the dining hall later.”

Then, he cast a pleading look at Wizard Li God before pointing upstairs, “Mr. Zhang Lisheng, please, I’m accustomed to auguring in the study room on the second floor.”

“I am not a difficult person. In fact, I’m very respectful of other people’s habits if they are my friends. Take me to your study room, Mr. Saganso, and predict both of our fates in the future…” Zhang Lisheng calmed his boiling divine power and said profoundly. Following the owner, he slowly walked up to the second floor of the mansion.

After turning a corner in the long corridor, the two of them entered a spacious room; it was a study room that had both sides of the walls separated by a bookcase filled with thick and thin books while the ceiling was actually a whole clear crystal.

When Saganso gently closed the door, Zhang Lisheng looked up unconsciously at the sun that penetrated the billowing dust before saying, “Oh, Sagan—no, it should be Lord Tandari. Looks like other than loving your adopted daughter, you love stargazing too. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have spent a lot of money in this dirty city to polish a large piece of crystal and turn it into the ceiling of your study room. However, I wonder if you have foreseen that I would come to visit you today.”

“Your Great Majesty, Mosha is a girl who doesn’t know anything. If you are angry, please don’t implicate her,” Tandari honestly revealed his identity and pleaded respectfully, “As for foreseeing my own ate, even a god as powerful as you can never master his future completely, let alone a humble demigod like me.”

“Hey, there’s such a legend in my hometown that goes like this, ‘A fortune teller couldn’t foresee his own life,’” The young man nodded and sat on the sofa in the study room like- nobody was there and looked at Tandari before asking with a probe, “Didn’t the powerful existence standing behind you give you any warnings recently?”

“Your Majesty, there’s no ‘existence’ standing behind me,” Tandari replied in shock.

“Tandari, Tandari, oh Tandari…” Zhang Lisheng retrieved the smile on his face. “Deceiving a powerful god in the land shrouded by his faith will not do you any good. I’m here with both good and evil intent. Please don’t lie and ruin the goodwill in my heart.”

At once, a thick water vapor spread out in the room and enveloped the legendary alchemist tightly.

In the face of the water vapor containing divine power that had been consolidated into saw-like trickling flow of water that was slowly brushing across his skin, head, and neck, Tandari hastily swore with a stiff body, “Your Majesty, I swear on my parents’ grave. What I said is all true! There’s no lie at all!”

“No lie?” When Zhang Lisheng saw that his prey did not seem to be lying, he asked in a puzzled voice, “Then, how does a small demigod like you master two different divine powers of controlling the air and auguring fortune? You can actually create the terrifying ‘artillery infantry squad for Dignity King and live in seclusion to predict fortune for people?”

Before asking this question, the Wizard Li God had decided that if Tandari continued to deny it, then he would immediately subdue and torture him to get an answer out of him. However, to his surprise, the explanation the alchemist had given was beyond his expectations. “Your Majesty, I’ve indeed mastered two kinds of divine power, one of which is indeed the ‘wind’ that symbolizes the control of airflow. However, the other is not fortune telling, but the violent flame power…”

“Flame power…” upon hearing this answer, the image of an Atlantean holding the light stone being surrounded by raging flame flashed across the young man’s mind, causing him to blurt out right away, “You have the divine power to manipulate flame? Tell me your secret now! Immediately!”

“Your Majesty, I can say how I mastered the wind element, but I can barely master the fire element.” Tandari smiled wryly as he continued to chatter on, “My enlightened teacher, Mr. Condoni, is an advanced alchemist who specializes in wind element alchemy, so since I started to become his alchemist apprentice at the age of twelve, I have been exposed to the alchemy of the wind element. I can seal lively ‘wind’ into the boots of the soldiers and make them walk more briskly, I can merge strong ‘wind’ into the weapons and allow the knight to have a short period of spellcasting power…”

“Alright, Lord Tandari, it’s not time for you to reminisce the past now. Get to the point!” Zhang Lisheng said impatiently. Now that the matter involved the manipulation of flames, it had made him suddenly lose his calmness.

Tandari, who was urged, was stunned for a while. With his palm trembling slightly, he pinched the spot between his brows, and somehow, a sense of sad but resolute expression flashed across his face. With a somewhat low voice, he said, “Alright, Your Majesty, I’ll get to the point. I’ve never been a smart person, but I’m better at thinking than all my rigid peers who only know how to research formations and alchemy. Before becoming a formal alchemist, I discovered that the source of all airflows came from the change in temperature. That is to say, there is a close connection between wind and fire. Ever since then, I began to study fire alchemy formation other than the wind formation. In just a blink of an eye, decades have passed. When a person with no outstanding talent like me spent more than ten years of hard work doing unremitting research and became a grand alchemist step by step arduously, I accidentally found a pattern that could fuse the wind element and the fire element in a faulty experiment. I’ll never forget that day, I am… I’m sorry, Your Majesty, I forgot that you are not interested in my past. In short, by relying on the formation of the wind and the fire, I first made a breakthrough to the legendary rank and understood the essence of the wind element and the fire element. Then, I somehow had lit up the divine fire out of the blue, became a demigod and mastered the ability to manipulate the elements of the wind. However, I don’t know why, but it can only affect the elements of fire a little. Originally, transforming into a demigod is a piece of great news for anyone, but I’m not a great hero revered by millions of people. I’m just an alchemist who is famous for being stingy. Unless there’s a method that can allow me to rise above the ordinary without relying on the belief and reverence of the mortal world, I can’t prostrate myself in worship to break away from my mortal shackles and embark on the road of becoming a god. Such a ‘divine power’ would definitely lead to the coveting of all the powerful kings and legendary-ranked powerhouses from the Gaia World. A demigod is indeed mighty but can never be an enemy to the entire world. Nobody will believe that I have inexplicably ignited the divine fire…”

“Not relying on faith to embark on the road to becoming a god? Looks like your ancestors are not simple, Tandari…” Zhang Lisheng pondered for a while before showing a strange expression on his face as he asked unconsciously, “Then, to keep this secret, you’ve created the identity of Saganso more than 30 years ago?”

“Yes, to be on the safe side, I did not announce the news that I became a demigod. Not only that, but I even changed my looks and temperament in the Lange City and spared no effort in falsifying the identity of a geologist. I’ve spent at least three months of precious time in this dirty city every year just for the sake of this leeway. However, I didn’t expect you to see through it so easily.”

“It’s just a coincidence that I can see through your identity. To be honest, you shouldn’t have dismissed all your assistants after you’ve changed your habits. Not only that, but you also shouldn’t have raised your craftsmen in your workshop only once in every ten years and allowed your old employees to leave complaints in their diary about your lazy life. Then again, all of this is not important now. Continue your story then.”

“Alright, Your Majesty. Ever since I became a demigod, I continued to study the alchemy method. After a few years, I found that my abilities no longer improved, so I began to walk on the long path taken by those ancient demigods who successfully transformed into a god in history and gathered faith. At that time, Yassen’s Dignity King had just taken the throne and was about to expand his armaments. I took the opportunity to recommend himself as his court adviser and slowly built a strong alchemist troop for him to establish my own heroic image in the hearts of the people. With the arrival of victories continuously, my name has spread throughout the Yassen Kingdom, and I was revered more and more by the people. My ability has gradually increased with the increase of my fame, especially in the last three to five years, where there was suddenly a sign for me to break free from the demigod shackles, allowing me to create a strong army like the ‘artillery infantry squad ‘…”

“A sign of becoming a god in the three to five years?” Zhang Lisheng once again interrupted the increasingly excited and loud description of the demigod alchemist. “You mean, you’ve felt that your divine power grew dramatically?”

“Yes, it’s like, like a huge stone has been lifted out from the narrow wall of the well and allowed me to see a blue sky,” Tandari described it with great enthusiasm, then, a sudden twist of expression appeared on his face as he stared resentfully at Zhang Lisheng. Incoherently, he howled, “I first thought that I’d have become a true god in a few more decades, or even ten years later, or so b-but you! You have taken over the beliefs of all the people in the mainland, and you want to conquer the entire Gaia World with your theocracy! You crushed the path of becoming a god to all mortals and snatched away all the chances of recovery of the gods in slumber! Not only that, but you even plan to kill me and capture my ‘divine’ … you! Do you think you’re really the master of this world? No! No! NOOO…”
