Ambassador Veridis explained to him what had happened in the Eternal Palace, and said earnestly, "Savis's goal is nothing more than two things: to make you leave Sin'dorei or to make you a commander on the front line. If his goal is the former, I have no way to help. But if it's the latter, I've done everything I can to help you resolve it."
Gale thanked him, "Savis's difficulties are within my expectations. Whatever he wants to do, it must be related to the front line. As long as he acts, there will inevitably be traces left behind, and I will deal with it carefully."
"What I'm worried about isn't Savis, but Her Majesty the Queen." Veridis looked at Gale with concern, "Her Majesty the Queen's attitude today is a bit strange, completely different from when she recruited you. Have you offended Her Majesty the Queen somewhere?"
Gale frowned, "I have always admired Her Majesty the Queen and respected her in every way; I have never done anything wrong!"
Veridis thought back carefully. Gale had only met Queen Azshara a few times, then spent a year helping Queen Azshara forge the divine crown, and after that, he had never seen Queen Azshara again.
During this period, he was present every time Queen Azshara met Gale, and Gale never made any inappropriate moves.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it!"
After seeing off Ambassador Veridis, Gale also recalled his interactions with Azshara, but still had no clue. Offending Azshara unknowingly made Gale feel inexplicable.
Could it be that Azshara had already made contact with Sargeras? That's why she became so neurotic.
With this guess, Gale's heart sank. It seemed that Sin'dorei was indeed not a place to stay long, and he had to prepare early.
However, the first step was still to use the energy of the Well of Eternity to advance to Archmage.
Strength is everything!
Thinking of this, he returned to the laboratory again.
Gathering Mages takes a certain amount of time, as Mages all have many things on hand and must deal with them before going to the battlefield. This gave Gale a buffer of time, which he needed to use to create a treasure that could hold the water of the Well of Eternity, so that he could still use the energy of the Well of Eternity even after leaving Sin'dorei.
To facilitate the study of the Well of Eternity's energy, Azshara, when building the Mage Tower, placed a basin filled with Well of Eternity water in the main laboratory of each Mage Tower. And she used special ceramic cups to replenish the Well of Eternity water in the basin.
Gale set his sights on the ceramic cup, wanting to modify it so that it could draw water from the Well of Eternity anytime, anywhere.
This inspiration still came from the game: the Alliance has Athena's evil holy grail, and the King has a holy grail.
And Gale named the holy grail he created the eternal holy grail.
Gale didn't need the eternal holy grail to have various attributes like in the game; he only wanted one attribute, which was to connect to the Well of Eternity.
Therefore, the eternal holy grail must have space-type runes that can silently bring the Well of Eternity water into the holy grail. And Gale happened to obtain such runes from the tidal scepter.
That's right, they were titan runes.
When Gale was studying the tide stone, he tested the titan runes he had mastered. Each titan rune possessed powerful energy, and Gale could not fully master their usage.
But now time was pressing, and Gale had no choice but to take a risk. Fortunately, the consequences were not serious; it was just a special ceramic cup.
Although the special ceramic cups were provided by the Eternal Palace and manufactured by specific Royal Mages, their production was not complex. The materials, besides clay, were truesilver.
What was more special were the runes on the outer wall, which could permanently keep the energy of the Well of Eternity water from overflowing. This was not complicated for Gale, and moreover, Gale did not need to thoroughly study these runes; he only needed to imitate them.
Gale bought some clay and then made a batch of special ceramic cups himself. Then he began to try to enchant the titan runes onto the ceramic cups, but unfortunately, he broke more than a dozen ceramic cups without success.
After summarizing the reasons for failure, Gale felt that the titan runes were of a higher level and could not be linked with ordinary runes. So he changed the position of the runes, no longer enchanting them on the outer wall, but enchanting them inside the cup.
He tried again; although the first attempt failed, it was because it was inconvenient to engrave runes inside the ceramic cup.
Gale immediately thought of a solution, which was to engrave these runes on the clay embryo before firing the ceramic cup. After firing, he would directly fill them with enchanting materials and then enchant them.
As soon as he thought of it, Gale fired another batch of special ceramic cups.
Then he tried to fill the runes with truesilver. After enchanting, the runes lit up for a moment and quickly dimmed. Gale was puzzled and wanted to re-enchant, but no matter how he enchanted, the truesilver would only light up for a moment and then show no response.
Could it be that the Arcane Energy storage capacity of truesilver did not meet the requirements of the titan runes?
Gale immediately changed the filling material, replacing truesilver with eternal gold. eternal gold is a more rare magical material than truesilver and can be used as an upgraded version of truesilver.
This time, the situation was much better; the runes lit up for about a minute and then dimmed again.
It seemed the idea was correct, but the material was not chosen correctly.
Gale endured the pain and took out the eternal gold he had scammed from Savis. The result was similar to truesilver, and even slightly inferior.
It seems he still had to start with the Arcane Energy storage capacity!
Gale thought of the enchanted thorium ingot, a powerful enchanted metal that could create artifacts. Surely it could be used now?
The production of enchanted thorium ingot was not difficult, just time-consuming. After two days, Gale finally made an enchanted thorium ingot, filled it into the runes, and poured a large amount of Arcane Energy into it.
The runes indeed lit up, and Gale quickly made the guiding lines to make the titan runes operate.
Soon, a pool of light purple clear water appeared at the bottom of the cup.
Gale's face lit up with joy; he had succeeded!
The next second, Gale's expression changed drastically, and he immediately sucked the Well of Eternity water from inside the special ceramic cup.
However, it was still too late; an energy vortex formed inside the ceramic cup and suddenly expanded outwards.
"Crack!"
The special ceramic cup was blown to pieces, and fragments pierced Gale's body. Then a shockwave swept through the entire laboratory, throwing Gale hard against the wall.
"Cough!"
Gale spat out a large mouthful of blood, got up from the ground, and hurried towards a surviving special ceramic cup.
He had found the key.
Ignoring his injuries, Gale took out an orichalcum ingot, filled the runes with orichalcum, and then used enchanted thorium to create the guiding lines. Finally, he created a specially shaped ether spirit to seal the mouth of the cup.
He cast an Arcane shield on himself before enchanting.
The titan runes lit up, and the Well of Eternity water appeared again, slowly filling the special ceramic cup. Just as the Well of Eternity water was about to overflow the cup, the ether spirit stabilized it, not allowing a single drop of water to spill.
