Chapter 74: Orange-red Flame, Tier 5 Sea Demon!

Levi followed the recipe in the manual and completed the matching of the casting materials.
Then, he put on the special iron gloves he had made, grabbed a small handful of casting materials, and placed them in his palm.
Then, the hand seals changed, and Levi’s hand seals were completed.
He softly chanted the corresponding incantation and struck out with his palm.
Psst.
The casting materials were scattered all over the ground.
Levi did not even see a spark, let alone a stream of flames.
“Can’t I wear gloves? But what if I accidentally burn myself?” Levi did not know if the seal would affect the caster, so he hesitated momentarily.
“Then I’ll try wrapping my palm with black gas.”
Next, Levi’s palm was filled with black snake energy. Now that Levi was a mid-level knight, the thickness of the black energy was different from before. It was common for him to snatch a white blade with his bare hands.
Then, Levi made another hand seal and chanted the incantation again. The next moment, there was a hiss,
It was as if he had ignited the fuse of gunpowder. Levi could vaguely feel a
power from heaven and earth pouring into his head, arm, and then through his palm, causing the casting materials to burn and spurt out instantly!
A foot-long stream of flame shot out from Levi’s palm, emitting a red light like an electric welding machine.
Moreover, Levi could feel that even if he did not use the black gas to protect his palm, the high temperature of the flames would not hurt his palm.
Soon, the flame was extinguished. There was still a hint of warmth in the air.
“It’s a success!”
“From today onwards, I can be considered half a wizard?”
He quickly opened the proficiency panel.
Sure enough, as he saw, a new skill appeared on the proficiency panel.
[Seal of Flame: Level 1 (1/1000)]
“Hahahahaha!”
Levi laughed loudly. As expected, the proficiency panel showed that he could even cultivate seals that required the bloodline of a wizard!
“Next to work on is the seals’ proficiency level. The casting materials required for the Seal of Flames are not expensive. I’ll set a small goal: to cultivate the seal to level 3 by the end of the year.”
Levi used the Seal of Flame to spray a stream of flames that swept across the ground, charring it black.
The power of these flames was still extreme, but Levi’s current attack range was too small, and the duration was too short. Unless it was close combat, it was tough to hurt people.
Moreover, according to the manual, the Seal of Flame sped out five types of flames. The temperatures ranged from low to high.
There were orange-red flames, yellow-white flames, azure-blue flames, purple flames, and colorless flames, which were of the highest realm.
It was rumored that if one reached the realm of colorless flames, the power of the Seal of Flame was not inferior to that of an official wizard using the First-Ring Spell “Burning Palm.”
Levi practiced the Seal of Flames happily. He did not feel the pinch since the materials were easy to get.
Levi’s men had been robbing tombs for quite some time to obtain bone ash that was more than a hundred years old.
As for the casting materials for the other three seals, Levi had issued a commission in the Shining Tavern under different identities. Although he knew there was a high chance he would not get them, what if he got lucky?
Black Water Valley’s cavalry construction was also full swing on the territory.
The cavalry trained in a valley basin that Levi had carefully chosen to avoid being discovered by potential enemies. It was located in the hinterland of the Montenegro Mountain Range and was rarely visited by humans.
The forging industry in the territory was also flourishing.
To feed so many cavalrymen, the daily expenses were not small.
As the saying goes, soldiers are trained for a thousand days and employed momentarily. This was unavoidable.
As for diplomacy, two of Levi’s neighbors, Silver Fox Baron of Silver Moon Territory, seemed to be doing a lot of construction within their territory. Moreover, they were very close to the church and had already become their vassal force.
Abraham’s new church was also completed. With the support of a large amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, a magnificent church rose from the ground.
On the day of the official opening, Levi sent someone to send a congratulatory gift to Abraham. This made Abraham very happy and gave Levi a Holy Light Blessing.
Levi sneered in his heart. Although his current strength was not enough to resist the church, it was still easy for him to find an opportunity to kill Abraham and his Knight Glimmer without anyone noticing.
However, he had not done so yet. Not only had he not taken revenge but he also expressed goodwill to the church. Other than not agreeing to his request to sell the land, he had satisfied everything else.
For example, he even donated 100 gold coins to the church in his name!
When the church needed labor, he even let some serfs in his territory help build the Church for free.
This made Abraham feel that Levi was very sensible. He believed the Black Water Valley would belong to the church sooner or later.
He wanted to obtain the Black Water Valley so much because he had received a treasure map by chance. The treasure map showed that the treasure was in the Black Water Valley.
After reading the historical records, he found that the Black Water Valley was the former Mellon family’s fief, so the treasure map must be the Mellon family’s treasure map.
The Mellon family had a special meaning to the church. His intuition told him that the Black Water Valley might have hidden the treasures and secrets of the Mellon family.
However, if he did not become the lord of Black Water Valley, he would not be able to mobilize a large workforce and resources to search for them.
However, Abraham was very patient. From his point of view, Levi’s current goodwill toward the church meant that Levi was not doing well. There was a high chance he wanted to curry favor with him so that Black Water Valley could sell for a reasonable price.
Therefore, Abraham got the church branch in Icewind City to advance his plot to bestow Levi with a “Chapter of Divine Brilliance” that could exorcise evil spirits. This badge was said to be the second generation of the previous “Badge of Holy Light” and was even more potent against evil spirits!
In Abraham’s words, although this badge was made of iron, it was more precious than gold. This was the recognition of the church’s loyalty to the lord.
Naturally, Levi was profoundly grateful and immediately paid this year’s tax.
Holding a small bag of heavy gold, the smile on Abraham’s face widened.
Thinking of Abraham, the horrible man, calling him brother, Levi’s lips curled into a strange smile.
The church, this money tree, was about to start earning money, so he would let the old dog be smug for a while longer.
During the Year 1008 of the Holy Brilliance Calendar, the Month of Flowers, Levi opened his eyes in the shelter. On the surface of his heart, the black snake species raised its head arrogantly in the posture of a king. The Frost Wolf Seed, the Giant Bear Seed, the Siren Seed, and the Man-Faced Spider Seed were all prostrating beneath it.
Among them, the Siren Seed was much more significant than before. “The Siren Breathing Technique has reached the fifth level..”
