Chapter 872: Chapter 484: Can a Magician’s Ladder be used for Farming? _3
Lord Durken responded irritably, “How are you any different from this Little Yellow Dragon? Are you questioning my strength as the King of Alchemy? Let alone having references, even without them, as long as I have enough materials, I can concoct something that flies, flies right up to the Starburst Array, I, Lord Durken, the King of Alchemy!”
Negris scoffed, “Yes, yes, the King of Alchemy who gets smashed by spatial turbulence.”
“Lord Nage, talking like this is why you have no friends,” Durken retorted angrily.
“Alright, alright, I get it. When the time comes, I’ll sweet-talk Gust and have him hand over the main pillar of the Sorcerer Ladder to me. Lord Durken, you’ll fix it up, how about that?” Anthony hurriedly interjected, trying to prevent the meeting from going off on a tangent.
Actually, their mutual teasing was just a sign of their familiarity with each other. It was precisely because they knew each other well that they could joke unabashedly and point out each other’s flaws.
Back when Negris and Durken were still at Resting Camp, how could they have interacted like this? Durken would have turned anyone who ridiculed him into a rabbit or a bald man, like a certain bald brewer.
“Don’t worry, I’ve got this,” Durken quickly assured, patting his chest, not wanting to tarnish his reputation as the King of Alchemy.
He stopped experimenting altogether and went straight to find Leite, ordering him to gather all the personnel from the Doralite Clan to prepare them for training.
The training materials would be the airships and flying vehicles they had previously seized. From these magical constructs, they would dissect the technological expertise of the Sorcerer Alliance, because if the Sorcerer Ladder was returned, he alone wouldn’t be able to swiftly control everything on it without sufficient manpower.
Of course, these were trifles. When it came to constructing a world transfer station, Durken had managed construction teams of tens of thousands. With ample project experience, his title as ‘King’ of Alchemy wasn’t just about his technical prowess.
Assured of Durken’s ability to take charge of the Sorcerer Ladder, Anthony immediately pretended like he couldn’t resist the temptation and contacted Cabrela to agree on a date and method for handing over the Sorcerer Ladder.
When the handover date came, a slightly smaller version of the Sorcerer Ladder was placed at the designated location by Anthony, a regular Sorcerer Ladder being over seven hundred meters long
, this smaller version only measured three hundred meters but was still an enormous structure.
Sixty alchemists from the Doralite Clan boarded the Sorcerer Ladder and, following the procedures taught by Durken, they checked every part of the ladder to ensure there were no uncontrollable elements like positioning, messaging, self-destruction, sealing, or autopilot…
From afar, aboard a hovering airship, the green-haired Cabrela watched the Doralite Clan coming and going below and shook his head with a smile, “Anthony, you clearly saw through my intentions, yet you deliberately stepped into the abyss. Human greed and hope often lead one into perilous depths.”
Behind Cabrela, his assistant, confused, asked, “Lord, with such a huge ladder, where will they hide it? If they can’t hide it, wouldn’t that just tell us where the Church of Light’s headquarters is?”
Cabrela pointed upward, “Hide it in the Void. When needed, they’ll lower it down. Normally, they’ll use a Teleportation Array for travel. They will definitely build a Teleportation Array inside the ladder; I’ve left the places ready for them.”
The assistant, still puzzled, said, “But wouldn’t having the ladder be very dangerous for them? They could attack the Starburst Array at any time.”
“That won’t happen; we’re not blind. How could we not notice such a huge ladder approaching?” Cabrela laughed.
“Still, it doesn’t seem necessary to use the ladder for the exchange,” the assistant was still clueless.
“Do you know how many people, materials, and money are needed to operate and maintain a ladder? Food, drink, and sanitation, how many facilities are needed for that? And there are special materials and tools needed as well, which can only be created by magicians. If they use these things, we can infer much about them through various channels,” Cabrela explained confidently.
“When they were hiding in the shadows, it was impossible to track them. The ladder serves as bait, bait to bring them out into the open,” Cabrela said with conviction.
The assistant still didn’t understand, “What if they have a large-capacity bag that can hold a lot of supplies, have their own sources for materials, can produce them themselves, or don’t need food and water?”
“Are you being serious? If they had all that, would the Church of Light need to hide?” Cabrela retorted irritably.
…
As Cabrela predicted, the Sorcerer Ladder slowly rose and ascended into the Void, disappearing into its dark depths.
As long as they maintained a sufficient distance, without clear positioning, it would be virtually impossible to find a Sorcerer Ladder in the vast Void.
Durken quickly assembled and activated the Teleportation Array, and Ange and his group emerged from the array.
They deployed the Divine Realm and pulled out all the necessary items for living, enough to last everyone a month or two.
“Lord, do we have Fine Gold?” Durken asked.
Angie reached out his hand, and a Fine Gold Anchor appeared in it.
“Lord, one branch of the World Tree, please.”
“Lord, can you carve out a channel here, but without using up the air? We don’t have much, and can only rely on your Freckle Removal Technique.”
“Ugh, splitting water into air and fuel? That’s too much Magic Power, isn’t it?”

“Lord, Elf Beans are so space-efficient. A bag of them can feed them for months, and they won’t even need to relieve themselves.”
“Lord…”
Negris and Anthony, nibbling on nuts nearby, laughed, “If Cabrela knew that our logistics could be handled by Lord himself, I wonder what his expression would be?”
“We’ll have to bring Lamo and those watchmen over later. We won’t even need living guards here on the ladder, which won’t consume much,” Negris added with a laugh.
Once everything was taken care of, Ange teleported back and soon returned, this time filling the Divine Realm with a tremendous amount of water.
The long-unseen Tom was pulled out, still unaware of what was happening, only to see Ange stuffing purified water into it.
