Amos's eyes were red, and his body trembled as flames surged around him, reflecting the inner turmoil he felt. The other party had discovered the greatest secret of the Fire Elemental Clan, and if it were anyone else, they would have already resorted to murder to silence him.
Unfortunately, Daniel was different; he was Lord Boris's apprentice and had come here on a mission. If anything went wrong, Lord Boris's wrath would surely be unleashed upon the Fire Elemental Clan. They could not bear that burden.
With no other choice, they ultimately agreed.
"Very well, you go prepare. Don't worry, I will report to my master that this place only looks like it has a Fire Mage Array; in reality, it does not. After all, it's just a guess. Given his trust in me, he won't send anyone else to check."
Elder Amos nodded in agreement with his reasoning. Lord Boris had not sent anyone to investigate for many years, which indicated that it was merely suspicion. As long as Daniel brought back the news, there would be no further inquiries.
He immediately instructed his subordinates to fetch treasures to prepare for financial loss as a means of disaster relief.
Seeing Daniel's keen interest in the Elemental Red Lotus, Amos couldn't help but furrow his brow. Worried that Daniel might come up with some bad idea, he quickly flew over to the Elemental Red Lotus and picked two Lotus Seeds from it, returning to hand them to him.
Daniel nodded in thanks and carefully examined the Lotus Seeds in his hand. Under meticulous observation with his chip, the Lotus Seeds were magnified to over ten meters high, revealing even the tiniest traces clearly. This was enough for Daniel to observe the condition of the Lotus Seeds in detail and gather the most precise information without being deceived by others.
As Daniel looked deeper into the Lotus Seeds, he found that they contained an extremely rich elemental aura. The immense energy within them, once unleashed, could reduce everything within a hundred meters to dust.
However, what astonished him was that such colossal energy within these Lotus Seeds appeared remarkably docile.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that a mysterious force was circulating within them, controlling the energy.
This was precisely why the Elemental Red Lotus could enhance Mental Power. This mysterious force was very similar to Mental Power; it was cultivated by the Elemental Red Lotus but was exceptionally pure and free of impurities, allowing it to be absorbed by people to enhance their Mental Power. Moreover, since the Lotus Seeds had no consciousness, there was no need to worry about any side effects.
After considering this for a moment, Daniel disregarded Amos standing nearby and placed one of the Lotus Seeds into his mouth before sitting cross-legged beside him to absorb its essence.
At least until the other party discovered his true identity, Daniel believed he was quite safe. To protect his safety, the Fire Elemental Clan would likely be extremely vigilant.
Just as he had imagined, Amos could only smile wryly and shake his head at Daniel's actions. He stood by personally guarding him to prevent any issues from arising. He feared that if anything happened to Daniel, it would implicate the Fire Elemental Clan.
At the very least, Lord Boris would undoubtedly unleash his fury on the Fire Elemental Clan. They could not withstand his wrath.
Lotus Seed just entered his mouth, and before he could even chew, it had already turned into liquid and flowed into his stomach. Immediately, a wave of heat surged within him, coursing through his body.
Daniel paid no attention to it; he had checked the method for consuming Lotus Seed, and it worked best in conjunction with the Meditation Method. So he quickly entered a meditative state with the help of the chip.
This time, the meditation felt distinctly different from before; Daniel seemed to find himself in a Crimson Sea. The red seawater pressed around him, nearly suffocating him.
Yet, in that sensation, it felt as if he had returned to the womb, warm all over. He almost sank deeply into it, not wanting to come out.
He didn't know how much time had passed when Daniel suddenly opened his eyes. What a comfortable feeling; he felt as if he had inhaled something intoxicating, floating in bliss.
After a moment's thought, Daniel checked the data that had just been detected. A blue light screen appeared before him, displaying lines of data.
"Detected changes in the subject's Mental Power, rapidly increasing."
"Subject absorbed unknown substance, Mental Power increased by 01."
"Subject absorbed unknown substance, Mental Power increased by 0."
"Deepened meditative state, effect optimized, Mental Power increased by 06."
...
"Meditation ended; subject's physical attributes have changed. Strength: 5 Agility: 6 Constitution: 4 Mental Power: 0."
As the data streamed down, Daniel compared it with his previous data and found that he had increased his Mental Power by a total of 8 points this time.
Moreover, he also gained 0 in strength and agility, while his weakest attribute, constitution, increased by 05. It was an unexpected surprise.
This progress was very evident; it was the result of a year's hard work. If it were someone else with weaker meditation effects, it would likely take five or six years.
This clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of the Elemental Red Lotus, which could almost be considered a miraculous drug for apprentices.
Moreover, the most enticing aspect of Elemental Red Lotus is that it has no side effects; it is closer to the Mental Power obtained through one's own meditation.
Unlike the Mental Power gained from using potions, which contains many impurities and must be dealt with to mitigate its effects on the body. Taking too much could even affect future advancement to Formal Wizard.
Glancing at another Lotus Seed in his hand, Daniel hesitated for a moment before ultimately deciding to put it away for now, waiting to use it later.
His Mental Power had just surged by eight points; if it were to increase by another eight points, that would amount to a total of sixteen points of Mental Power, which was already double his original amount. Such a sudden influx of Mental Power would place a significant burden on his body.
"Sir, everything has been brought here; when do you want it packed up?"
Fearing that Daniel might cause even greater destruction in the Lava Secret Realm, the Fire Elemental Clan worked quickly to prepare the offerings. They wanted to send this troublemaker away as soon as possible.
Daniel looked over and saw that there were more than a dozen stone boxes. The surfaces were uneven, full of protruding edges, and bore scorch marks from flames, giving them a rugged and wild appearance.
Daniel waved his hand dismissively. "Just leave them there; I doubt you have the guts to cheat. If any of these materials are short by even a fraction, I will make you pay tenfold."
His arrogant and domineering words nearly made the Fire Elemental Clan explode with anger. Yet they had to admit he was right; they dared not cut corners on this matter. Otherwise, they would be the ones at a loss.
"Just deliver them to the entrance of the secret realm; I will wait there."
Elder Amos did not understand what Daniel was up to but still agreed to take him to the entrance of the Lava Secret Realm.
"Thank you; I will take my leave now."
After finishing, Daniel used Wizard's Hand, and two massive hands appeared in mid-air, scooping up the offerings. Daniel strode out of the Lava Secret Realm with the supplies.
Watching Daniel's retreating figure, the Second Elder remarked curiously, "Wait a minute, isn't it customary for messengers to use spatial items to carry offerings? Why didn't he this time? Could it be full?"
Elder Amos suddenly slapped his forehead and rushed forward. "No, we’ve been tricked; he is not a messenger."
Elder Amos felt a pang of regret as he realized that so many items had been taken away by him in one careless moment. This was equivalent to an offering worth zero years! Especially since he had extorted them heavily due to the Fire Mage Array.
So many things had nearly drained their resources. They would have to offer tribute again next year, but where could he find so many offerings?
Fortunately, just after leaving the entrance of the secret realm, the three of them spotted Daniel rushing down the mountain. They shouted and chased after him, blocking his path.
Daniel wanted to escape, but unfortunately, he had too many offerings with him and couldn't run fast at all.
Moreover, Amos and the others were determined to retrieve the offerings, putting all their effort into it, moving at an incredible speed. Daniel simply couldn't compare.
"You despicable thief, hand over the offerings, or I swear I'll kill you today."
Daniel glanced at them and shook his head helplessly, not expecting them to react so quickly. He hadn't intimidated them.
Fortunately, he had anticipated this kind of situation and knew how to respond. He let out a long howl.
Suddenly, a furious roar echoed from the dense forest below the mountain. Accompanied by the roar, trees fell to either side as a massive creature charged toward them at high speed.
Amos's expression darkened; this creature clearly possessed strength comparable to theirs. If it were just Daniel, they could easily capture him and force him to return the offerings. But now that this enormous beast had appeared, it meant they had the ability to escape.
The situation was no longer under their control.
