Summoning hundreds of servants with tallic yellow sand as their core at once is still within his easy consumption range today.
"Proficiency, just one last step to go." He controlled this tallic-rock-earth army, conducting complex tactical drills.
Under the micro-control of strong spiritual power, the combination of tal and sand exhibited astonishing coordination and execution, their formations changed fluidly, and joint attacks were terrifyingly powerful.
Each successful command and the servant’s precise response steadily propelled the skill proficiency toward its peak.
A few hours later.
[Sand Servant level increased, free attribute points 1]
[Sand Servant: LV9 (Trait: Spirit of the Earth)]
[Spirit of the Earth: The sand servants you summon have a very low probability of transforming into real earth elent life.]
"This is..." Duke carefully studied the new trait of the sand servant, extracting a lot of information.
After reaching its maximum level, the sand servant has a very low probability of summoning real earth elent life.
Successfully summoned real earth elent life possesses a complete elental soul core and is an independent life entity with growth potential, learning ability, and complete self-awareness.
Its core is composed of highly concentrated earth elental energy and tallic yellow sand, with potential far surpassing ordinary servants.
Once summoned, real earth elent life can exist permanently as long as its soul core is not destroyed.
Previously, sand servants could also exist for long periods, but mainly by relying on the power of ancient stone tablets for maintenance, not in the true sense of life.
"Real earth elent life? Permanent existence? Extrely low probability?" Duke’s eyes lit up with a thoughtful glow.
This ans, the sand servant spell has transford from a purely temporary summoning technique to a rare ability with a chance of gaining permanent elental life servants.
While the probability is very low, with his current spiritual power and mastery over earth elents, he can completely conduct large-scale summoning to filter.
No sooner said than done. He dismissed the hundred servants in front of him, letting the tallic yellow sand and sand return.
Then, he took a deep breath, deciding to attempt a large-scale summoning to validate this new trait.
He fully activated the reserve of tallic yellow sand within the yellow sand crystal, simultaneously mobilizing a large amount of earth elents from the wilderness.
With one spellcast, hundreds of tallic-rock-earth servants gathered in the light.
Duke’s spiritual power scanned over them; they were all ordinary creations, not real elental life.
Dismiss.
Summon again: "Sand Servants, summon a hundred!"
Another hundred, none.
On the third, fourth ti... Duke tirelessly repeated the process of summoning and dismissing.
Each ti summoning hundreds, the consumption for him now is negligible.
Like conducting a grand gold-panning operation, searching for that trace of true gold among the countless sands.
When summoning the fifth batch, forming the five hundredth sand servant, Duke’s spiritual power keenly captured an unusual fluctuation.
In this latest array of a hundred servants, the summon process of a sand servant positioned centrally and slightly left seed particularly slow and substantial.
While other servants had already ford, it continued absorbing surrounding earth elental energy and tallic yellow sand, its body gently expanding, and the tallic patterns on its surface naturally extending and intertwining like veins, emitting a restrained and solid life pulse.
Finally, it took full form.
Its body was one size larger than an ordinary servant, nearly four ters tall, its whole body exhibiting a deep dark-gold color, as if sculpted from a single piece of ancient mineral, yet carrying the warm texture of earth.
In its eye sockets, two clusters of solid dark-gold soul fire slowly rotated, revealing a nascent yet stable glow of wisdom.
Standing there quietly, it seed to rge with the ground beneath, emitting a substantial sense of presence, starkly different from the lively but ultimately synthetic companions around it.
Duke vividly sensed the establishnt of a deeper, more stable soul link with this special servant.
It is a true, independent life.
"Succeeded!" Duke felt a surge of joy in his heart.
He approached the special life of the earth elent.
"Can you understand ?" Duke conveyed his thoughts through the soul link.
A thick, slow, and rock-rubbing textured thought cautiously responded: "Mas...ter... I can... understand, I am... the child of earth and tal... thank you for awakening ... I am willing... to serve you."
Consciousness is clear, logic is complete, with self-perception.
This is indeed a Level 1 earth elent life, moreover, since its core is of tallic yellow sand, its essence is extraordinary, its potential far exceeding that of ordinary Level 1 earth elents.
Duke issued a few simple commands to it, and it could accurately understand and execute, and even make so subtle adjustnts based on its judgnt.
It possesses strong defense and power, and its manipulation of earth elental energy is more refined, able to absorb power from the ground actively to repair itself or strengthen attacks.
"From now on, you will be called ’Rocksteady’." Duke nad it.
"Rocksteady... thank you, Master, for the na." An aura of calming joy was transmitted from its soul wave.
Duke dismissed the other ordinary sand servants, leaving only Rocksteady.
He could feel that maintaining Rocksteady’s existence hardly consud his spiritual power; the soul link occupied a barely noticeable position.
This occupation of spiritual power is very low, much lower than a typical slave contract.
Generally, a Level 1 slave creature occupies spiritual power about a hundred tis that of this sand servant, aning Duke could have a hundred tis more slave creatures than an average Level 2 mage.
Rocksteady can absorb earth energy autonomously to maintain and grow slowly, making it an almost perfect permanent servant.
This is a servant truly obedient to him, entirely his own creation of life.
Duke didn’t expect the maximum level trait of the sand servant to be so extraordinary, to actually create true life, containing principles perhaps beyond his current comprehension and mastery.
"Though the probability is low, it’s worthwhile. With future power improvent, summoning scale expansion, perhaps accumulating a true earth elent life army." Duke planned in his mind.
Thus, the testing and improvent of the sand servant concluded successfully.
Duke left Rocksteady in the Divine Court Wilderness, allowing it to get familiar with the environnt and absorb energy.
Creating an earth elent life army isn’t a rush, he also sees the activation probability of the Spirit of the Earth trait is indeed very low.
One earth elent life out of five hundred heads, maybe it’s just his luck.
There are other things to do now, can’t stay here and keep drawing the lottery.
After settling the strength solidification and testing, he headed over to Elizabeth, to register his promotion to Level 2 mage.
Once reaching the Level 2 mage status, within Black Sail, one becos a mid-tier role.
Advancing to Level 2 mage is a significant matter in the wizard world, especially within an organization like Black Sail.
It not only represents a leap in personal strength, but also signifies comprehensive enhancent in status, permission, and obligations.
According to custom, he needs to report to the organization, update his information, and receive the treatnt and partial privileges due to a Level 2 mage.
Without using the dark demon ferry boat, his form flickered gently, a faint yet stable ripple of wind elent erged around him, he beca like an arrow shot off the string, skimming the sea surface, speeding towards the sea area of Elizabeth in his mory at an unprecedented speed.
Monts later, the massive shadow of Elizabeth could be seen looming on the horizon.
It’s entirely constructed of deep gray magical alloy, its lines cold and fierce, resembling a floating steel mountain range.
Looking left and right, unable to see the bow or stern of Elizabeth, this colossal entity seems like a true continent, lying here, never having moved.
