In the empire-level warship, Merlin was most concerned whether the Matrix was still there .
The Matrix had disappeared because Merlin had died once and was resurrected . Back then, the Matrix had become the control core of the empire-level warship . Without the Matrix, it was difficult for Merlin to control the warship . As a result, he would not be able to use this warship which had the fighting power of an Honored Legend .
“Whoosh . ”
Merlin’s Mind Power stretched into the warship . The first thing he saw other than the sphinx statue was the other four guardian statues . Merlin had placed them in the warship previously .
“Master!”
The four guardian statues hurriedly cried out to Merlin respectfully .
Merlin nodded in response, then led these guardian statues into the control room of the warship . The instruments were undamaged and still in operation, meaning that the Matrix might still be controlling this warship .
“Matrix!”
Merlin yelled anxiously .
“Beep . The connection was interrupted for an unknown reason . Bind to your body?”
The control room resounded with the familiar voice of the Matrix . The Matrix was still here indeed, obeying Merlin’s order . Merlin let out a long sigh of relief .
“Is it possible to not bind?”
Merlin asked after some thought . He was still rather apprehensive of something like the Matrix with its origin unknown .
“Without binding, this might affect the connection with you, Master . ”
“If I don’t bind, can I still give you orders?”
“Of course . The Matrix has already collected Master’s gene . A previous scan has confirmed that you, Master, has the correct gene . ”
Merlin nodded pensively . Now he had a general understanding that perhaps back then, there was a small portion of the Matrix left in his body, used simply to maintain his connection with the Matrix .
The majority of the Matrix had been transferred to the empire-level warship . Otherwise, he would have no way of controlling this massive warship . Therefore, when the Lord God of Light killed Merlin, the Matrix had escaped disaster .
Even so, this state of separation was Merlin’s ideal situation . He could control the empire-level warship, and did not have to allow an unknown power like the Matrix to be bound to his body .
Therefore, Merlin did not hesitate to refuse . “There’s no need to bind!”
“Beep . Order received!”
The Matrix still had a robotic voice, sounding incomparably icy . Nonetheless, Merlin was already used to it . He thought to himself that what he needed was martial arts robots, as many as possible .
“With the remaining energy from the Light Tome, how much of the warship’s power can be replenished?”
Merlin knew that manufacturing martial arts robots required a tremendous amount of energy, so he first checked on the warship’s energy supply .
“The remaining energy of the Light Tome hasn’t been broken down, and cannot be confirmed . ”
Merlin fell into silent contemplation . He must manufacture the martial arts robots . Otherwise, with just four guardian statues, how many dimensions could he occupy?
“Begin manufacturing martial arts robots . At the same time, break down the Light Tome and replenish the ship’s power . ”
“Beep . Order received . Beginning the manufacturing of martial arts robots . ”
The control room of the warship started to flash with light, and various apparatuses began to move . Merlin could only see that the energy of the warship dropped steeply from a hundred percent to ten percent .
Nonetheless, soon enough, the energy bar began to rise swiftly . It must be the high-powered energy furnace that was breaking down the energy of the Light Tome so that it could replenish the warship .
“Creak . ”
After a moment, a strange sound rang from within the warship . Following that, a special martial arts robot slowly walked out from the manufacturing room . This martial arts robot was unarmed and defenseless but the icy sensation it exuded created a subtle sense of pressure .
After some thought, Merlin sent forth one of the guardian statues .

“Give it a go . ”
The guardian statue immediately understood Merlin’s meaning . Strength had always been the forte of these statues, similar to the Mobatans . Therefore, it immediately swung a fist at the martial arts robot .
“Swish . ”
The martial arts robot sidestepped the blow with incredible speed . If Merlin was not using his Mind Power, he would have been unable to perceive it . Following that, the robot appeared behind the guardian statue and brought down a fist .
“Bang . ”
The guardian statue responded quickly too, turning around to forcefully counter the martial arts robot’s blow . The entire warship seemed to be shaking .
“Not bad, equally matched . It’s on par with a Great Legend!”
Merlin nodded, satisfied with the martial arts robot’s performance . As long as it could match a Great Legend, then it could guard a dimension by itself .
Merlin glanced at the energy of the warship once more, finding that it still had a hundred percent energy . He did not expect the Light Tome to have such abundant power .
“Continue manufacturing martial arts robots . ”
Under Merlin’s command, the warship continued to manufacture martial arts robots . The energy dropped swiftly, then rose up quickly again .
At last, after manufacturing three martial arts robots, the warship’s energy, for once, did not rise back to a hundred percent but only eighty percent instead .
Evidently, the energy of the Light Tome had been exhausted . Although Merlin could still use elemental crystal stones to fill it up to a hundred percent, doing so just to manufacture martial arts robots would be too excessive . In addition, the elemental crystal stones had a greater function, and that was to ensure this empire-level warship still had fighting power on par with an Honored Legend .
Therefore, the energy bar must be constantly replenished to a hundred percent . Now that the energy of the Light Tome had been used up, Merlin could not continue manufacturing martial arts robots .
Merlin counted and found that he had manufactured three martial arts robots in total . In addition to the four guardian statues, he had seven beings on par with Great Legends .
This was already a relatively formidable force .
“What a shame about the tyrant raptor . If I could bring it out, it would also be on par with a Great Legend . ”
Merlin did not bring the tyrant raptor of the Mobata world into the Void Zone . After all, the tyrant raptor was born in the Mobata world . If it was brought to the Glorious Land, Merlin was afraid something might change .

Furthermore, Veron was unwilling to have too much contact with the Glorious Land, not even wishing to be in touch with the Spell Caster civilization . Therefore, after weighing these factors, Merlin did not bring the tyrant raptor with him .
“Seven forces on par with Great Legends . Adding myself, we’ll be able to control eight dimensions! That’s about it . I can leave now . ”
Merlin carefully coordinated his capability . He would only leave when he was confident .
Following the dimension map, Merlin immediately left Setoh Arcane City .
…
In the pitch-black, silent Void Zone, a shiny black warship of unparalleled size was flying forward at a terrifying speed .
This warship was Merlin’s empire-level warship from the Atlan civilization . Its speed was far superior to the casting tools of the Spell Caster civilization .
Purely in terms of equipment, there was no one among the countless foreign civilizations in the Void Zone who could compare to the Atlan civilization .
Merlin was in the warship, poring over the dimension map . He had already scanned this map for the Matrix so it could maneuver the warship completely, flying to the boundless territory on autopilot .
Merlin shut his eyes . Initially, he wanted to visit Titus to ask about matters regarding Mind Power . However, lately, Titus had been researching the mysteries of the Immortal Mind . Therefore, even when Merlin had entered the Illusory World, Titus did not show himself .
Although Merlin could force Titus to come out, it was not necessary . Since he could not develop his Hallucinating spells further, he could focus on the Maxim .
Of course, Merlin was merely understanding the Maxim for now, not condensing it . Currently, among all of Merlin’s spells, the only ones that had reached the stage of condensing a Maxim were the Fire-type and Darkness-type spells .
Out of these two, the Fire-type spell had reached the stage of consolidating a Maxim but this would merely be an average Maxim . Even if he had become a Legend, he would be an ordinary one .
As for the Darkness-type spell, it was nearly at the level of attaining the ultimate Maxim but there was a gap to reach there, and Merlin did not know how long it would take to truly understand it .
Looking at the endless darkness in the Void Zone, Merlin seemed to feel something . He allowed his consciousness to be immersed in understanding the Darkness Maxim, letting the warship speed along in the Void Zone .
The Void Zone was vast and borderless . This time, Merlin was going to the boundless territory, which was a great distance away from Setoh Arcane City . Within the territory of the Spell Caster civilization, it was still relatively safe .
In particular, Merlin was aboard an empire-level warship, which emanated a fearsome force . No one would dare to stir up trouble, thinking that it must be a casting tool of some formidable Legend .
However, if he had reached the boundless territory, Merlin would have to keep the warship . Not only would the warship consume a lot of energy but more than that, it was also very likely to be recognized by someone .

With Merlin’s current capability and position, no one would find fault with Merlin over this warship of the Atlan civilization . Still, there would be unnecessary trouble .
“Endless darkness… Endless sinking…”
In the warship, not even Merlin had realized that his body had begun to exude some fluctuations . These fluctuations expanded swiftly and even spread outward . The endless vacuum of the Void Zone was filled with these strange fluctuations .
“Whoosh . ”
The warship sped by a dimension at an extreme speed . Immediately, a Great Legend flew out from the dimension, staring bewilderedly at the shadow of the departing warship, mumbling to himself, “Which Legend is that? They seem to be condensing a Darkness-type ultimate Maxim?”
It was true . Presently, Merlin was in the process of understanding the Darkness-type ultimate Maxim . He was already slowly consolidating the ultimate Maxim . Once he had attained complete understanding, he would be able to instantly condense the Maxim with a single thought .
Condensing a Maxim required no luck nor elemental crystal stones . All that was needed was an understanding of the Element’s Essence .
Therefore, there was an essential disparity between Legends and Spell Casters below Legends . Only by becoming a Legendary Wizard and creating a Maxim could one break free of a dimension’s binding . Without needing Elements, one could roam the Void Zone as they liked, traveling past countless dimensions .
“Beep . You’ve reached the boundless territory . Please prepare yourself, Master . ”
The Matrix’s icy voice rang out . Merlin was roused from the depths of his enlightenment . The mystical fluctuations on his body also vanished quickly without a trace .
“I’ve reached already?”
Merlin thought about it . Earlier, when he was immersed in understanding the Darkness-type spell, he had a vague sense that he was still missing something . He knew that this was key to attaining the ultimate Maxim .
“Forget about it . There’ll be a chance in the future . ”
Merlin did not linger upon that sensation . He knew that consolidating an ultimate Maxim was not a matter of one or two days . He would need a long time of understanding and bit by bit accumulation for him to succeed . Occasional bouts of enlightenment were not enough to support his consolidation of a complete ultimate Maxim .
Through the warship, Merlin could see the region before him . Dimensions began to crowd together . This was the unique feature of the boundless territory . It had plenty of dimensions .
Of course, with a great number of dimensions, the battles and fights were also exceptionally turbulent .
Merlin exited the warship in one step . After keeping the empire-level warship into his Spatial Ring, he relied on a spell to fly on his own toward the nearest dimension .
