Mage Adam

Chapter 234 Invitation from Iron 27

===================================

Adam felt like a new Titan. Now, when he used electromagnetic magic, he didn't need to go through complex conversions. With just a thought, he could instantly create various spells. This smoothness made him feel like he was using his real body.

He was now stronger than any Novice and just as strong as a regular Knight. However, he hadn't advanced into a Knight yet. He needed a lot of energy to make his Original Flames burn to the fullest. This would raise his power level and stabilize it at a higher level, and then he could advance.

But then, he ran into a problem: he was out of Honors. For the moment, though, this wasn't urgent.

Windflame 222 had mentioned that other Commanders might invite him on missions, but reputation takes time to spread. Adam's level was still too low, and he didn't expect all Titans to trust his abilities just yet.

If he was willing to share how to build an electromagnetic Vital Generator with the library, he could get a lot of Honors right away. But, of course, Adam wouldn't do something so foolish. Even though the Titans seemed like a good ally, it was still unclear what transcendent Titans and Intelligents really thought about the Mage World.

The boost that electromagnetic abilities could give to a Titan's strength was too significant. If he helped the Titans too much and then things ended up leading to war, Adam's actions would likely be despised by the entire Mage World.

Adam didn't want that to happen, so he put that aside. He threw himself into the joy of programming. Since he couldn't add much to his energy system right now, Adam focused on physical attacks.

He redefined and programmed the combat skills he had learned from the Mage World into his core, creating a database for Metal Eaters movements. Titans were strong and suited for close combat, but Adam didn't like hand-to-hand fighting, so Spark Code gave him a way to cheat.

He used his core as a sensor and wrote programs for quick responses and dynamic vision. Suddenly, he became a master of close combat. When he encountered an enemy, the program could automatically control his body to fight.

Adam kept adding small modifications and practical programs to his body, enjoying himself thoroughly. He treated himself like a robot, having a great time.

...

Five months flew by. With Windflame 222's help, Adam was skeptically invited by the Titans to join three simple patrol and extermination missions.

As expected, his electromagnetic abilities played a nearly perfect supportive role. The title of "Strongest Support Titan of the Novices" started to spread in Ironburg, and gradually, more Commanders began to trust him.

As he became more effective, he earned more Honors and spoils of war. He casually set aside the spoils and exchanged all his Honors for condensed energy blocks. Those blocks were the best ones he could get as a Novice.

After that, he was only 13% short of the energy needed to advance to Knight level.

Bang!

A huge noise erupted about a hundred meters in front of Adam. Then, the person who arrived took two steps towards him, each step resonating with a similarly massive sound.

Adam looked up to see a gigantic body, pure black without any other colors, staring at him through the fiery glow of its eyes.

"I am Iron 27, the General Commander of Ironburg. How long until you advance to Knight level?"

As much as Iron 27 tried to keep his voice down, the voice boomed, causing the surrounding metals to tremble with its sonorous waves. freewebnove(l).com

Adam stood up from the ground, his mithril body constantly adjusting to cancel out the uncomfortable vibrations. Iron 27 was so tall that Adam's six-meter body couldn't even reach his knees.

"I need 130 more condensed energy blocks. If the energy blocks are sufficient, I can advance right away and adjust myself within three days," Adam replied straightforwardly.

Iron 27 then asked, "How much will your abilities improve after advancing? Can you hide my body?"

Iron 27 was referring to a supportive function Adam could provide after fully utilizing his electromagnetic abilities. Adam could adjust the emitted information from all Titans within a battle formation to create an electromagnetic invisibility barrier, achieving both optical and electromagnetic wave invisibility.

However, to be honest, the effectiveness of this technology was mediocre at the moment. The Titans' gigantic bodies reflected too much information, and Adam could only manage perception deception rather than complete invisibility.

Moreover, this technique had requirements for the Titan's body size. It was already difficult to hide someone like Windflame 222, and it was even more impossible for Iron 27, who was over forty meters tall.

Adam honestly said, "Even if I become a Knight, it would be difficult to hide you. You are too big."

Iron 27 seemed a bit disappointed. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Adam continue, "If you could reduce your size a bit, I could manage to sneak you within fifteen kilometers of the Metal Eaters, at most."

The flames in Iron 27's eyes flared up fiercely. "I can shrink to 34 meters at most; any less and I would collapse."

'*34 meters, about the same size as Windflame 222*,' Adam thought for a moment and said, "I can do that."

Iron 27's huge palm patted down towards Adam's shoulder with a whistling hurricane, making Adam feel flattened once again.

Iron 27 added, "I will provide all the resources needed for your advancement. You can make any requests to Windflame 222, but I need you to advance immediately and assist me with a mission in seven days."

Adam agreed without hesitation.

Iron 27 was the General Commander of the border fortress and would definitely not be a minor character in Titan society. If he really needed Adam this much, that probably meant that the mission this time could be very important.

Adam thought that if he could demonstrate his value in the mission, it would greatly help his plan to connect with the Titan higher-ups. Therefore, he readily agreed.

After leaving his contact information, Iron 27 flew away.

Windflame 222, who had been hiding nearby, approached Adam with a stiff smile. He kindly pinched Adam's body trying to help him repair. Upon finding his effort ineffective, he just said, "Mithril is really too soft. We keep getting bigger, and you keep getting smaller. At this rate, you might become the shortest one among all Titans." freewebnove(l)

Adam felt he couldn't explain to him that strength had nothing to do with height. He simply ignored the comment and said, "I need two hundred condensed energy blocks."

Windflame 222 took note earnestly, and after waiting for a while without hearing any other requests from Adam, he asked curiously, "That's it? No more? You're not applying for a higher-grade alloy body and energy circuits?"

Adam shook his head. "No need, just the energy blocks are fine. I have one more question, are these resources a gift to me, or are they an advance?"

"They are a personal gift from Iron 27. The next mission is very dangerous; I think it's better for you to strengthen your body. Even if you don't want to change your body structure, you should apply for some external weaponry."
