There were many people already lingering around the energy pools.

Some of them were uttering strange incantations and the rest were waiting for something while seated cross-legged. There were people making calculations with formulae and runes on something, too.

That being so, the arrival of Juventus and Angele did not draw any attention.

The entire room was lit by the green glow of the energy pools and so the faces of those wizards who were there were also dyed green. The place looked terrifying overall.

"Pick one. All the pools here should have enough energy to sustain the magic circle," Juventus explained, standing by the entrance.

Angele nodded a little and looked at the energy pools. The sizes of those pools varied.

Nonetheless, the size mattered not. He only needed to find the one that perfectly fitted the Legacy Magic Circle he obtained.

Too strong an energy pool whereas the magic power required not much, then the Legacy Magic Circle would be greatly affected, and the runes be weakened.

Besides, if the energy pool had insufficient output, it would not be able to transfer enough energy to the magic circle.

Angele had to check the magic circle's power level and search for the energy pool perfect for it.

He explored the energy pools in the hall and selected a rectangular one located on the right side.

"I'll take that one." He walked to the energy pool and took out the seed from his pouch. "How do I set this up? Are there any restrictions here?" He looked at Juventus.

"No. The only thing you must do is to place your mentality mark on the seed and throw it into the pool," Juventus said, crossing his arms, "And if you plant the seed in the energy pool you chose, the magic circle will completely be protected by the defensive power of the pools. It's nigh impossible for even a powerful wizard to mess with your magic circle without your permission, so don't worry—it will be fine even if others were to know the location of your magic circle."

"Is that so?" Angele somewhat nodded.

He held the seed and concentrated his gaze on its surface.

A crimson mark, which looked like a needle, took shape on where he was staring at with focus.

"All right." Angele crouched, sighing, and carefully dropped the seed into the energy pool.

It started germinating and developing rapidly as soon as it sank into the glowing green water.

Roots emerged from the seed's surface, twisting and expanding apace in the energy pool.

Seconds later, the energy pool was occupied entirely by the roots that soon formed a natural magic circle.

The magic circle formed from the roots slowly floated on the surface of the water. Green leaves and vibrant flower buds appeared in the circle immediately.

A human face took shape on the magic circle. It looked like as if it was trying to smile and its left eye was open and the right eye closed.

"That's…" Juventus had his breath taken away, "the Totem of the Metal Giant… I didn't expect your reward to be so good. The director must really have high expectations for you."

"Huh?" This was the first time Angele heard of the Totem of the Metal Giant. "What do you mean? Is this a rare Legacy Magic Circle?"

"Rare? No, no. It's extremely rare," Juventus looked at Angele. "This Legacy Magic Circle is not part of the rewards that had been decided upon, which means, the directors have prepared it especially just for you. It may not be the strongest Legacy Magic Circle of all time, but it should be the most suitable for you."
