I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Kane Floating City,

Strictly speaking, after Steven became a High-level Professional, he didn't engage in many battles.

Because from the time he was a Low-level Professional, he excelled in crafting Extraordinary Equipment and Tools, so he basically didn't need to take risks in battles to collect the resources needed for cultivation.

Therefore, Steven was not very concerned about power, status, wealth, or resources; his pursuit was always to create stronger Magic Equipment and Tools.

To some extent, this was also one of the fundamental motivations for him to continuously enhance his own strength, as crafting more powerful Magic Equipment and Tools required corresponding abilities.

However, Steven also encountered a bottleneck, which was that he needed a higher-level environment to support his subsequent forging research.

This was also why he set his sights on Kane Floating City.

So, when Lis expressed that he could let him live in the Floating City, he immediately agreed.

Hearing Steven's response, Lis nodded with satisfaction.

Subduing, or rather recruiting, Steven was not a decision made on a whim.

Unlike Risa, who was once the Floating City Master of Azela, Lis had the confidence and strength to control an entity of the same rank.

Moreover, Lis was well aware that in the legends, Steven was an oddity.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have rashly targeted this conspicuous figure.

Steven was quite reclusive but had no bad intentions.

During the Abyss Blood Battle, many of the High-level Extraordinary Tools and Machinery used by players on the Fanor Continent battlefield were made by Steven, and he had quite a bit of interaction with him.

All in all, Steven never had the airs of a legend; as long as his requirements were met, he was quite easygoing (obedient).

"I haven't even mentioned my conditions, and you've already agreed?"

Lis looked at the sprawled-out Steven and said with a smile.

"Whatever."

Now, Steven felt like a salted fish, saying unconcernedly:

"After all, I'm already your captive; I have no way to oppose whatever you want to do."

After all, he was the one who took the initiative to attack Lis, wanting to seize the Floating City.

Even if his friends found out, they wouldn't avenge him over this matter.

Furthermore, being typically reclusive, although he often crafted equipment for other entities of the same rank, he didn't have many good friends due to his reluctance to socialize.

"Alright then, you can rest for now."

Lis nodded and casually released the restraints and Magic Power seal on Steven.

"Your Magic Workshop will be prepared in advance; just complete my requirements on time."

In the current state of Kane Floating City, there's no need to worry about one or two legends causing trouble internally.

Even if Steven had other thoughts, it wouldn't cause too much damage.

Moreover, Steven, the [Magic Machinery Master], was quite capable. After all, there were still many idle areas in the Floating City, so letting him use them was feasible.

What's more, Lis was counting on Steven to work for him without pay, to make money for him!

This could also be considered one of the major yields of Kane Floating City.

After all, besides the Elemental Magic Crystal, the Elemental Magic Statue was also a very distinctive product of Kane Floating City.

In the future, these matters could be handed over to Steven, to fully exploit the value of this [Magic Machinery Master].

In fact, not to mention a single legendary entity, the scale of Kane Floating City could accommodate several more legends without an issue.

Lis could use this condition to recruit other Legendary Mages, but after some hesitation, he decided against it.

After all, he knew Steven well; other Legendary Mages were uncertain.

For a single Legendary Mage, Joyce and the Black Cat controlling the Floating City could easily suppress, but having a few more could be troublesome.

At least, until Lis's strength broke through to a higher stage, this matter wasn't urgent.

Currently, under the Black Cat's control, the Floating City was slowly undergoing restorative repairs, gradually adjusting its status.

After Lis set up cooperation channels with extraordinary forces like the Church of the Gods and the Elf Kingdom, the outputs of the Floating City were continuously converted into necessary extraordinary resources.

Now that the Floating City had entered a positive operational cycle, Lis didn't have to spend too much effort on it.

After instructing the Black Cat to keep an eye on Steven, Lis returned to the Magic Workshop to continue his previous research.

As a Legendary Arcanist, soaking in the Magic Workshop, immersed in the world of elements and arcane arts, was the greatest joy for Lis.

...

Months went by,

"Steven, I've come to fetch this batch of goods!"

The Black Cat's figure appeared in the Magic Workshop, looking at Steven, who was hunched over in front of the Elemental Furnace.

"I've finished long ago; you can take it yourself."

Steven didn't even lift his head as he spoke to the Black Cat.

During this period, Steven had healed his injuries, with even his right arm restored.

Although limb deficiency was troublesome, it wasn't significant for Lis.

He could now use Legendary Divine Skill, and recovering these injuries was quite easy.

After recovery, Steven couldn't wait to start his research again.

With such good conditions in the Floating City, how could he sit still?

Lis knew about Steven's situation, so he directly assigned these tasks to the Black Cat, making her responsible for providing Steven with extraordinary materials for research and crafting Magic Equipment and Tools.

According to the previous agreement, all the extraordinary Magic Equipment and Tools crafted by Steven belonged to the Floating City.

Steven had no objections to this; it was just a matter of spending more time.
