Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Marcus's Emergence Part 1
Upon hearing Ethan's words, Alan swallowed nervously and then hesitated before asking with a serious tone, "Mr. Ethan, I want to ask, if I have a friend... oh, I really do have a friend who can't last much longer, could using it possibly..."
"Yes, it could extend it by that much," Ethan replied, stretching out three fingers.
Alan's eyes nearly popped out of his head, "Three hours???"
"What are you thinking? Three hours, and even a bull would have plowed the field to ruin!" Ethan's facial muscles twitched, "At least three minutes."
"That'll do, I guess."
Alan looked a bit disappointed, but soon smiled again, "Mr. Ethan, I guarantee it will sell well."
Ethan nodded slightly, "In the future, we will have many collaborations. But as you know, my family isn't suited for public appearances, so I hope to establish a company under your name. This will solve my Energy Stone storage issues and tax matters, and with your connections, it should be feasible."
"I'll give you an additional 3%."
As Ethan stretched out three fingers again, any momentary hesitation in Alan disappeared.
Ethan continued, "After this, the company's daily expenses will be deducted from the books. Oh, and here's a list I've given you, I hope you can help me find these items through the company."
Alan took a long strip of paper.
He frowned again, "Elixirs, martial arts techniques, talismans, war AI Bionic Robots... and they're all quite rare."
But Alan didn't dare ask too much, after all, these were items requested by the powerful Blackwood. He even suspected that Blackwood had secretly left Earth to find a new habitable planet and build a new world.
"Can you manage it?" Ethan asked.
Alan came back to his senses and pondered for a moment, "The items Mr. Ethan wants, I think we need to start from ancient civilizations. In that case, I have many friends who study ancient epochs."
"I even have friends in the deep sea, and even on extraterrestrial planets, digging up relics from past epochs. I'll see if I can get these level of items, but it might take a long time."
"Thank you," Ethan nodded slightly.
He knew that the rapid development of this world, with the resurgence of millennium-old abilities, was still due to the unearthed relics of ancient civilizations.
As Ethan was seeing Alan off.
Alan suddenly called out to Ethan, "Mr. Ethan, when I was in your villa area, I saw your teacher. He seemed to be asking the gatekeeper Mr. John to find you. He was asking you to participate in a school competition, I found out that the opponent seems to be a Transcendent Seed..."
"They've chased me to my doorstep?"
Ethan rolled his eyes, "Tell him to stop bothering me, will helping not suffice?"
Alan grinned, "Right, with the realm of Transcendent Seed, it shouldn't be a problem for Mr. Ethan to intervene."
"Who said I was going to take action? I don't even want to leave my house."
Ethan shrugged, "In that case, Alan, do me a favor. Before the competition starts, capture that Transcendent Seed, and release him after the competition is over."
"..."
Speechless, Alan left Psychic Gear Villa No. 1, suddenly feeling that he was still quite upright and honest.
...
[Blackwood's 50th Grand Festival Concludes!]
[Congratulations! Your descendants have gathered together, receiving your Divine Gift with gratitude.]
[You've earned +300 Spiritual Tribute!]
Looking at the nearly 30,000 Spiritual Tribute points on his account, Ethan estimated that if he continued to help develop Blackwood, he might see some returns in about twenty more years of game time.
Of course, that's if he doesn't spend a lot of Spiritual Tribute points in the meantime.
[Special Event]
[Lucas, with the Black Blood Hall, stealthily moves at midnight, preparing to intercept the 'Heavy Sand' minerals escorted by Silverwood Wilson, alongside Qingping Moore.]
Right after the grand festival, Blackwood was already in action.
Silverwood Wilson, Ethan had learned about him, was Moore's longtime enemy. Now, Moore, who had once helped save the Silver Iron Forest for Blackwood, had become an ally of Blackwood, with frequent collaborations.
Now, even the cautious Silverwood Moore family was seizing opportunities in these chaotic times.
"Even the cautious Silverwood Moore is fishing in troubled waters now?" Ethan felt the chaos of Tranquil County more than ever.
Fortunately, he had just sent some items to Blackwood, which could also lend some strength to them.
In the game.
Gratitude Village hadn't encountered any trouble yet, still consuming the resources previously obtained, and the cooperation between Lucas and Moore was going smoothly.
Ethan decided to check on his two descendants abroad.
Amelia had already reached the assembly point of the Sky Sect, gathering in Listening Wind Town where Nathan had once destroyed the Lightning Legion. Currently, there were over fifty people, not yet in action, but waiting for more to join the demon-removal team.
Amelia's character was also one of not causing trouble, acting low-key, and she was quite safe at the moment.
Ethan then clicked on Marcus's avatar.
Map transition.
[Sky Sect]
The scene appeared inside a cave, especially where a milky, dense pool filled with psychic energy made it clear that this was no ordinary place, filling the entire cave with thick fog.
And Marcus, who had left the Cliff of Reflection just seven years ago.
Now, he was meditating mid-air above the psychic pool!
Opening his past experiences, Ethan learned that Marcus had been living as an outer disciple in the Sky Sect for these seven years, unremarkably, but never stopped cultivating psychic powers.
He had been waiting, waiting to reach the peak of Foundational Energy.
Then he could inherit the psychic pool left by his master, break through to Emerging Ability, and make a stunning debut!
"Boom!"
Suddenly.
A burst of energy exploded beneath Marcus, causing the psychic fluid in the pool to scatter, and all the psychic energy in the cave entered Marcus's body.
He opened his eyes, flames bursting forth!
Especially from within him, the alchemical fire emerged from his body.
Raging flames burst around him, completely evaporating the psychic pool, leaving only fierce flames in the cave!
Emerging Ability, achieved!
"Twelve years."
Marcus whispered softly, "Twelve years since the master died. I came here as a youth, and now I'm nearly thirty."
"Coinciding with the great war between the two sects."
His voice gradually became colder, his gaze piercing, "Today, I emerge with the body of the Nine Psychic Fires, re-enter the inner door, and reclaim everything of my master. I want everyone in the Sky Sect to know, Blackwood has a son--"
"Marcus!"
