Chapter 223: Planar path
"It is." Elder Zachary replied before signaling Nina to remove the protective covering from the teleporter.
There was a card slot nearby the sealed raised platform construct. Nina swiped the master card, and the first layer of the raised platform vanished into the sidewalls of the inner Treasury, revealing a round doorway with many veins like symbols.
"This is the gateway to another world?" Whittaker asked while looking at the round doorway with many complicated magical runes design but most of them were space-related. He could still not define the round doorway, as Noah didn't notify him about it.
"Yes, this is called a Planer teleporter. This is also a magic-mech built by using mana conductors, space stabilizing metals, and space-type magical rune designs. Each rune was inscribed on it by using the elemental heart blood of an 8-star and higher ranked space attributed magical beast, while I used a mana gathering formation so that the demand for mana could be met continuously. The specific effect of this construct is to absorb a vast amount of mana from mana sources and the surrounding to generate a planar path to another world. However, the price to activate is too high, using it three times will consume all the small mana crystal in the treasury. The gateway will lead to a very mysterious but… extremely dangerous world. I also got the awakening stones from that world but I also faced many dangerous encounters. Thus, I advise you to not step in the other world unless you are a high-rank battle master."
The Planar teleporter opens a planer path to another world. The so-called Planar Path was a passage between planes. The space stabilizing metal stabilizes this path. Whereas, a continuous supply of mana is needed to activate the space type magical rune designs and keep the planar path open.
Elder Zachary clarified everything about the planer teleporter and the danger of the otherworld to Whittaker in a clear and serene tone. It was already suggested in the books that the awakened continent wasn't the only world in the boundless universe. And these theories had countless physical evidence to back them up. For example, the demons and the Evil God Abaddon are the greatest evidence of other worlds. The existence of Gods, and the spirit world is another evidence. Thus, Whittaker didn't find it hard to believe in the existence of other worlds.
Whittaker was now almost certain that these three awakening stone had been brought back from the other world by Elder Zachary. In the awakened continent, the awakening stone was invaluable. Its value couldn't be estimated as it is a destiny changing item for every human. Even in this era that was so abundant in resources, the awakening stone could only be described as a priceless treasure
Every mage would yearn for such a valuable treasure. As it would allow them to access battle energy. The same can be said for normal people. If one appeared on the market, it would make countless people go crazy. They would pay any price for them. The same can be said for Whittaker.
"I would pay any price to change the destiny of my brother and mother. Elder, what would I need to do to get these awakening stone?"
"Hahahaha,"
Elder Zachary laughed before handing over the three awakening crystal to Whittaker.
This was such an invaluable item, yet Zachary casually handed them to Whittaker.
He almost couldn't believe it.
His wide-open eyes expressed his thoughts.
Are you for real?
I can really take these awakening stone without doing anything?
"You don't need to do anything as the treasury now officially belongs to you," Zachary said to confirm his thoughts.
This was the destiny changing item he got for himself and his wife but he was too late. By the time he returned to the awakened continent, the scarlet enchantress has breathed her last. All the people he knew had grown old and died. That also included his wife. Only a few old fogies remained but Zachary's will to live had died with the death of his wife. He was living to fulfill his responsibilities and they were all complete. Thus, the old man didn't use the destiny changing item on himself before, and Elder Zachary was glad that this destiny changing item will finally be useful to someone.
"Elder, I will never forget this gratitude. I thank you in the place of my brother and mother." Whittaker said while half-kneeling to express his gratitude before he stored the awakening stone in his rankless ring of genesis.
His heart was moved by Elder Zachary's heartwarming gesture.
This was such a rare treasure that a teacher wouldn't hesitate to kill his student for it. Even a father will kill his son for an awakening stone.
"Stand straight. A man must not bend his nack so easily and you know what... These awakening stone might be everywhere in the other plane." Zachary said with a smile while pointing at the Planer teleporter. "In only three weeks, I obtained three awakening stone in that world, although I encountered several creatures that were as powerful as A-ranked magical beasts and dozens of hordes of animals and creatures, comparable to high-rank magical beasts."
As Zachary said, the other world had plenty of awakening stone. But the fortune came hand in hand with danger. The danger level of the place where Zachary teleported to could be calculated from the fact that the lowest rank beast he encountered was C-rank.
"I'll reach high-rank as both a mage and a battle master before considering the trip to the other world," Whittaker said with passion lit a light in his hand.
The awakening stone will sell a lot. And he had a whole mine in his soon-to-be palace.
"There's nothing else to see here. This is all that the treasury has while the magical herbs are stored in the floral greenhouse located at the roof of the Palace. Let's return to rest." Zachary said.
"Yes, father. Come little brother, it's time to go out and close the treasury." Nina said before they walked out of the Treasury and returned to their rooms to sleep.
