224: Chapter 224 Completion of Faith Extraction Technique 224: Chapter 224 Completion of Faith Extraction Technique “They’ve agreed over there, but the price they’re asking is pretty high.” “The price isn’t an issue, as long as I can get what I need. There’ll be plenty more cooperation in the future,” Zhao Guang said to Ocoro. This deal was all about getting spells custom-made for himself. Perhaps he couldn’t buy some special spells and knowledge, but having some spells tailor-made for him was no problem. And from these spells, Zhao Guang felt he could definitely learn something. As long as he was capable enough, there was a possibility that he could extract more magical knowledge in the future. When it came to theft prevention, mages couldn’t hold a candle to those on Earth. After all, those people were experts at both studying piracy and avoiding patents. “Alright, I’ve given you the goods, now I’m going to be busy for a while,” he said. “Do your best to succeed in one try. You can’t rush a breakthrough. If you fail, each subsequent attempt will be less perfect and more difficult than the last,” Ocoro said, aware of what Zhao Guang was about to do. After all, the stronger Zhao Guang was, the better for them, since they were partners. Zhao Guang took his leave, leaving behind the dairy cows and departing with a group of five-striped pigs. In this period, besides his own research, Zhao Guang had also made several trips to transport dairy cows and even more trips with five-striped pigs. By now, Yars had built up a sizable dairy operation and was planning to promote their milk, and possibly show off the cows in the process. It seemed like a good idea if they could secure some orders. On the other hand, with this latest trip, the number of five-striped pigs Zhao Guang had sent out had reached into the thousands. Even though they were always either half-grown or piglets, the quantity was significant. Zhao Guang believed that the higher-ups must have been informed about the five-striped pigs by now; they just hadn’t started to pay attention yet. If they truly understood what this meant, there would have been some kind of reaction. It’s important to remember that many of them were quite advanced in years. “Jiajia, I’ve brought another batch for you; have someone come take it away quickly,” he said. Liu Jiayin responded helplessly, “I know, but after this batch, please temporarily stop sending them; we’re not fully equipped to handle a larger scale yet.” Even building pig pens wasn’t something they could do overnight. Besides, theirs was an enclosed operation, not some simple fence. “That’s hardly enough. Our scale will cover the whole province, and eventually our products will be distributed nationwide. Do you think this little is enough?” Zhao Guang objected. “It’s plenty. Don’t forget, our flagship product is the hybrid five-striped pig, not these,” Liu Jiayin insisted. Zhao Guang nodded in agreement. It was true that the hybrid five-striped pigs were meant for the mid to high-end market, a premium product not meant for everyone. Besides, scarcity added value, and they couldn’t breed too many. Given the reproductive rate of the five-striped pigs, if they didn’t control it, they’d build pig farms slower than the pigs could reproduce. No, more accurately, they’d plant bamboo slower than the pigs could reproduce. Lately, the bamboo had begun to grow. According to Liu Jiayin, even the hybrid five-striped pigs could use bamboo as their staple food, which was much cheaper than feed. Especially after taking over the mountains around the castle, the bamboo would just cost some labor. The research institute had already started to experiment with all kinds of feed using bamboo as the main ingredient. He believed that once the scale of bamboo expanded in the future, the cost of feeding pandas might even decrease, and it might be possible to see pandas eating specially prepared feed. Imagining such a scene filled Zhao Guang with a sense of pride. Perhaps in the future he could even attach a “National Treasure Exclusive Supply” sign to it. After hanging up the phone, since the matters here were resolved, it was time to continue with his work. After much persistent effort over time, he was finally about to complete his magic model. Just the day before yesterday, Zhao Guang’s magic power had fully recovered to its pinnacle; however, it was completely different from before. He had tried it out and found that his Mage’s Hand was much more flexible than before. Unfortunately, there was no change in strength or size, which was a flaw of this trick. Normally, as a mage’s strength increased, the maximum power of their spells would also rise. But tricks were different. Once a trick was constructed, it basically wouldn’t change anymore. The stability of a trick’s magic model directly blocked any enhancement that magic power might otherwise provide. Nevertheless, it was still good to have some increase in flexibility. Today, he should be able to completely finish the model. Zhao Guang calmed his mind to compute, continuing until the evening when he finally stopped, pounding on his own shoulders. It wasn’t that he was extremely tired, but more like a habit, a way to express the hardship he put himself through. Unfortunately, no one could see it, so Zhao Guang stopped tapping after a while. “Finally finished. Next, I can make a breakthrough,” Zhao Guang said as he walked over and picked up a Buddha statue. Because he needed to construct lifebound magic, materials were required. Unlike ordinary spells that primarily relied on one’s own magic power, other materials had been collected by Zhao Guang through Ocoro long ago. After all, it was just the materials needed for breaking through the junior mage level, nothing too complicated. The most essential material, however, was the Buddha statue he held in his hand, an item not purchasable in the otherworld. The Faith Extraction Technique, a taboo spell, aimed primarily at extracting the power of faith. In the otherworld, the power of faith was considered the personal property of the divines, and anyone daring to touch it was committing a grave offense. Furthermore, items containing the power of faith were hard to come by in the otherworld, mostly in the hands of temple divine officers. Even then, such powers of faith often couldn’t persist for long before being taken by the divines themselves. But on Earth, it was a different story. Zhao Guang simply spent more money to buy a worshipped Buddha statue from a temple, to the great delight of the old abbot. “Finally, we have the funds to buy a better Buddha statue; let this one follow and protect you,” said the abbot. Those were the abbot’s exact words, which left Zhao Guang speechless. He hoped the power of faith contained within the Buddha statue wasn’t too impure. After detection, it indeed contained a significant amount of the power of faith. Taking a deep breath, “Take the gamble. If I don’t dare to bet on this bit of danger, what will I do later?” Zhao Guang didn’t intend to construct this spell in the otherworld initially, but considering the differences between the two worlds, he ultimately decided to take the risk. After all, he didn’t worship any divine, and there were no divine statues in his location. The crucial point was that he hadn’t heard of anything like Buddha in the otherworld. With that in mind, it was time to go. As for Xi Fei, an Enchantress is a type of demon, even if a half-breed demon, and had nothing to do with the divines, really.
