Chapter 877 Daily Life on the Journey
Two days later.
A flying ship belonging to the Zhentarim Association rose from a tall wooden platform. It slowly adjusted its trajectory before accelerating toward the west.
Meanwhile, as one of its passengers, Greem was mixed in with the crowd on the deck.
Those who could board the flying ships were either adepts or higher nobles. As such, though there weren’t very many people on the deck, they behaved in an orderly fashion.
Due to the many factions and organizations in the World of Adepts, there was no single standard for an adept’s dress code. Of course, there were no limitations on the colors of their clothes either.
Typically, most elementium adepts liked to wear soft and light cloth robes due to their weaker Physiques. On the other hand, body-refining adepts and bloodline adepts dressed with much more variety. From light leather armor with decent defense to full metal armors with shocking defense, there was almost nothing they wouldn’t wear.
It was difficult to analyze the actual power of an adept by what they were wearing!
As the elders of the adept’s tower had previously notified them, the adept managing the flying ship made sure to leave the largest and most luxurious room on the ship to Greem.
The space inside the flying ship wasn’t large. Apart from the warehouse at the bottom-most level, the rooms left for the passengers were exceedingly narrow and small. Even the official adepts typically stayed in those tight rooms. However, Greem had a completely different feeling when he was led to his quarters by the managing adept.
The room before him was not only broad and brightly-lit, but was also clearly split up into two sections.
The outer section was the living room and the study room, while the inner part was the bedroom and a separate workshop. There was even a small alchemy platform in the workshop.
This way, Greem would be able to process some simple alchemical items even during this journey.
At this point, ordinary First and Second Grade magical golems could not provide him with any help. However, Third Grade elementium cores were not so easily obtained. Greem could only try his best to forge some lower-grade magical golems to bolster the combat power of his clan adepts.
The clan’s resource sites were already starting to come online. Combined with the massive dragon resources of Lance, the Crimson Clan had a very stable resource-harvesting system. Under such circumstances, the convenient and practical elementium golems, as strategic resources, were no longer sold to the outside world. Instead, they were kept as exclusive benefits of the Crimson adepts.
On this boring journey, reading books, looking at the scenery, and taking some time to create special elementium golems; all this became a daily routine for Greem!
The effect of meditation on improving Spirit was insignificant for Greem as he was now. However, after hundreds of years of developing this habit, four hours of daily meditation was a fixed routine for him.
The improvement from such meditation might be minor, but if Greem persisted over the years, he might be able to obtain decent results.
It was impossible to become a powerhouse without such routine hard work!
Even during this seemingly leisurely trip, the Chip in Greem’s mind was still operating at high speed, analyzing one task after another in an orderly fashion.
Ever since becoming Third Grade, the increase to his Spirit had caused an unprecedented improvement to the Chip’s calculation and organization abilities. Greem also discovered that his mind could now manage large amounts of data at a fast and efficient rate, even without the help of the Chip.
He roughly estimated that his mind, as of now, could compare to the Chip when he was First Grade!
It indirectly explained how high-grade adepts were able to deal with those complex, multi-layered three-dimensional arrays. With their powerful Spirits, every high-grade adept’s brain had been developed tremendously. Their minds were no weaker than intelligent computers from Greem’s last life.
In fact, for the sake of increasing the capacity of their minds, some adepts would even use special magic to stimulate the wild growth of their brain, before cutting off a part of it and storing it in their own adept’s tower. This way, with the inherent connection between their brain and their split-off brain, these adepts would possess extraordinary memory and nearly infinite memory storage.
It was almost as if they had a more rudimentary ‘Chip’ regularly assisting. If Greem ran into such individuals, his advantage of having the Chip would be leveled, and there would be no advantage to speak of.
That was why the Chip was a tool and not the master. Greem had to fully unleash his own power and potential aside from relying on the Chip!
