Compared to the Master of Billions of Flesh's near-infinitely large Flesh Dimension, Isaac's one-hundred-cubic-meter space couldn't even be called a fragment. However, because of the Legend ritual, this portion of the Void had seized the essence of the Flesh Dimension and could barely be considered a Dimension Seed.
With enough resources invested, it might even become a true Dimension in the future!
Of course, no one would actually aim for that. The resources required would be astronomical!
This Dimension Seed had two real functions. First, it could provide a short burst of Infinite Magic Power once a day. The duration of the Infinite Magic Power varied depending on the size of the Dimension.
Second, a seed is a seed, so naturally, it could grow. Once it grew to a certain point, it could be harvested for a Dimension Fruit. This was a resource for trading with a Demon God, capable of replacing many ritual offerings while also circumventing the risks of the ritual itself.
As Isaac's connection to the Dimension Seed grew stronger, a faint red light emanated from the depths of his soul. In a moment, a red Gemstone condensed on Isaac's chest. This was the Anchor Point between the Dimension Seed and the physical world.
Both harvesting the Dimension Fruit and using the Infinite Magic Power Skill required this Gemstone.
And besides these two general abilities of the Dimension Seed, as a seed separated from the Master of Billions of Flesh's Flesh Dimension, it could also produce ten kilograms of Tier One Demonized Flesh Essence daily, or waive the Magic Consumables for one Flesh Magic spell.
This effect would improve as the Dimension grew.
However, this was also just a pie in the sky. The resources needed for the Dimension to grow were immense. Just how many Demon Gods would he have to swindle...
Isaac couldn't help but shake his head at the very thought. If he put all that effort into improving himself, he might not end up any weaker than a genuine Demon God. 'Why go through such a huge detour?'
He slipped the glowing red Gemstone into his pocket. When he had time, he'd make a necklace like the one Doctor Strange used for the Time Gem—convenient and discreet.
Isaac soon left the basement. Although it was late, he didn't rest. Instead, he headed for the door. Right now, he couldn't sleep at all.
Arriving at the laboratory, Isaac pushed all the manuscripts on his desk to one side and placed the Magic Book, which had been transformed by the Master of Billions of Flesh, on the tabletop.
The once-ordinary brown notebook had been transformed by the Master of Billions of Flesh into a Magic Book that looked utterly evil.
On the book's cover, at its very center, was a closed eye. When you looked at the Magic Book, the eye would snap open, revealing a crimson, blood-red pupil within.
And above the blood-red eye was the title, written in Demon God Text.
Isaac glanced at it and quickly looked away. Demon God Text was a language imbued with power, just like Elf Language and Dragon Language, but it was far more sinister than either of them.
Unlike the other two languages, Demon God Text didn't need to be deciphered. No matter how complex the script, one glance was enough to understand its meaning. And simply speaking it aloud produced Mysterious effects, making it incredibly convenient.
So, what was the price?
Every time Demon God Text was used, the user would be marked by the corresponding Demon God, slowly suffering Erosion from the Demon God Power until they were reduced to nothing more than the Demon God's plaything.
Isaac was well aware of the danger. He wasn't confident he could nullify the side effects of Demon God Text, so he didn't even look at the title, instead directly opening the book: *A Preliminary Study of the Goblin Nest: Flesh Nest*.
Opening the Magic Book, his eyes fell upon strings of profound Magic Texts. Compared to the eerie Demon God Text, the Magic Speech created by Wizards might have lacked some of its seductive Magic Power, but the contents of the book engrossed Isaac completely.
After a long time, Isaac finally pulled himself away from the Magic Book. He slowly raised his head, a look of sudden realization on his face. 'So, it's that simple...'
RRRIP!
As Isaac came to his realization, a Demon Claw emerged from the nape of his neck. A faint flow of Magic Power circulated, and a blank Magic Book materialized. The contents of *A Preliminary Study of the Goblin Nest: Flesh Nest* were replicated onto it, page for page.
With this, Isaac's Talent Witchcraft had officially been upgraded!
From Flesh Conversion, it had become Flesh Nest!
Flesh Nest was a type of Position Magic, but unlike others such as the Beast Breeding Arena, it was mobile. After being deployed, the Flesh Nest could be transformed into a Flesh Gemstone to be carried around.
However, during this period, all of the Flesh Nest's functions would be suspended. It could only be used again after being unsealed.
And the process of unsealing it was equivalent to casting Flesh Nest all over again.
But even so, its practicality was greatly enhanced!
This was because, compared to Flesh Conversion, Flesh Nest had one huge advantage: it could pre-form flesh embryos, which could then fully materialize within one to two seconds when needed and join the battle.
In other words, it had the ability to zerg-rush.
Furthermore, the Flesh Nest's demand for Demonized Flesh Essence was slightly lower. As a variation of the Goblin Nest, while it lacked the ability to draw Magic Power from an unknown Existence like a Goblin Nest could, it was still capable of absorbing Magic Power from the air.
Besides, he still had the Infinite Magic Power from his Dimension Seed. If he planned its uses carefully, he could raise a large army in minutes!
At this point, Isaac's combat system had begun to take shape. He would use the three basic Arcane spells for shielding, mobility, harassment, and survival, while leaving the rest to the army from his Flesh Nest!
At the same time, there was another pleasant surprise. After the ritual and absorbing a vast amount of Knowledge, his period of Mana instability had completely ended.
In other words, he could now prepare for his first promotion ritual to become an Official Wizard. Upon completion, both his Magic Power and Spiritual Power would be enhanced to a certain degree. If he used a more specialized promotion ritual, he could even gain other bonuses.
The only problem was that he currently didn't have any promotion rituals, neither a generic one nor a specialized one.
Moreover, he had spent almost all his money. He would have to wait until the Dragon Lizard and the Demon Rat arrived to see what his situation was.
"Sigh... money..." With a long sigh, Isaac shook his head and returned to his desk to continue studying the Flesh Nest.
Talent Witchcraft only allowed him to cast Witchcraft quickly and easily; it didn't let him fully understand its principles. To develop it further, he still needed to conduct more research.
Knowledge was the root of all a Wizard's power!
...
In the early morning, a beam of sunlight fell, dispelling the darkness in the laboratory. Isaac slowly pulled his focus from his Magic research.
However, as Isaac raised his head, his pupils suddenly contracted!
There on his desk sat an unfamiliar Magic Book!
On the cover of the Magic Book were written three words: "Mad Witch Association"!
Isaac stared at the Magic Book on his desk, his brow furrowed. He hadn't slept at all last night. Even though his attention had been mostly focused on his Magic research, it was impossible that he wouldn't have noticed an entire Magic Book appearing.
After hesitating for a long moment, Isaac slowly reached for the "Mad Witch Association" book. Although the book's appearance was incredibly strange, it probably didn't bear him any ill will. Otherwise, the person behind it, who could place it on his desk without a sound, could have just as easily killed Isaac without a sound...
'I might become someone else's pawn, but as I am now, I don't have the right to choose. If this is truly a scheme, it's better to walk into it proactively than to be dragged in passively!'
