Chapter 241
It was indeed a very small flame. When Adam first arrived in this plane, the flame from the self-destruction of an ordinary titan was much larger than this. "Is this all that's left?"
"Yes. Lithium-60's self-destruction was too thorough. However, it's a good thing that there's a flame left. Bring it back to the mainland and put it in an energy environment and high-quality ores. After a few decades, a new titan will be born."
Tie 72 wasn't sure if the fire seed would be able to complete its mission. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said something as vague as a few decades. However, this wasn't important. To him, this fire seed was the continuation of his friend's life. It was hope.
The strong magnetic field had a very convenient binding effect on energy. Iron 72 was afraid that his own energy would disperse the flame, but this was not a problem for Adam. After carefully preserving the flame, the two of them began to fly back to the Iron Castle.
They did not encounter any accidents on the way back. The Metal Eaters in the border area of the Iron Castle were almost completely wiped out this time. They could not organize an effective counterattack. The surrounding border area had already made preparations to contain the Metal Eaters before Iron 72 set off, so no reinforcements came.
A few days later, the two of them returned to the Iron Castle. When Adam stepped on the walls of the Iron Castle, a pool of silver liquid metal silently returned to his body. Adam was very glad that he did not use this life-saving trump card.
The flame was still with Adam. The Iron Castle did not have a suitable environment for it, so it needed to be sent to the mainland to be cultivated. Iron 72 directly handed this task to Adam. He told him to set off from the Iron Castle to the mainland city of York after he finished resting and reorganizing. There, he would place the flame in the flame room.
This mission was of great strategic importance. Not only did it maintain the balance and put aside the wild ambitions of the Metal Eaters for a second all-out war, but it also cleared the borders of the Iron Castle and expanded the territory of the Titans. Those territories that seemed worthless for the time being would be repaired by the wise Titans in the future. In a few decades, they would be restored to their original state.
Because the mission was completed perfectly, Adam received tens of thousands of war achievements. His authority in the Titan civilization was also raised by one level. He could see more confidential documents and advanced knowledge of alloys and energy.
"It's very safe inland." When Iron 72 invited Adam to join him for his metal health care, he said, "Other than the ordinary Titans working in the factories, there are also some universities built by wise men. However, not many Titans are willing to stay there. Almost all of them like to fight."
All sorts of ear-piercing noises could be heard from the other end of Iron 72. It was too hard. Polishing, polishing, and remodeling required the maximum power of the machine. However, Adam was different. He could maintain himself at any time. The machine only needed to be oiled and added energy blocks.
"University?" Adam repeated curiously. The knowledge receiver in the library was so convenient. Was there a need for universal higher education?
"Yes, the university is equivalent to a research center for the wise men. Other than conducting research, it is also responsible for nurturing the next generation of wise men. You know, a wise man is different from a warrior. We are born to fight, but we are not born to think. If you are willing, many universities will accept you, but I don't think you need it. You already have the qualifications to establish a university. " Iron 72 recalled the magical abilities Adam had displayed during the mission. They were not very strong, but it had nothing to do with knowledge. It was just that Adam did not have enough energy to support them.
"After sending the lithium-60 tinder to the tinder room, I hope you don't come to the frontline. The value of your life is much higher than killing a few Metal Eaters at the frontline." Iron 72 flipped over and continued, "The Gold Devouring Race lost a quasi Royal Clan member. They definitely won't let this matter rest. Conflicts like the one that occurred when you were born are bound to happen again and again. The frontlines aren't safe.
"Of course, this is only my suggestion."
Adam actually had the same idea. This time, he was prepared to return to level 8 with peace of mind. Without the support of the Magic Net, the strength of a level 8 Titan body was almost the same as his original body. At that time, he would have the ability to explore more information and even go deep into the territory of the Metal Eaters.
Moreover, he could take advantage of this time to do some research to improve his social status in the Titan civilization. Adam was only the tip of the iceberg when it came to the use of electromagnetism on metals.
"I will seriously consider it."

Adam stayed in the Iron Castle for a few days. He still remembered how Burning Wind 777 helped him in his first mission. After his ability improved, he wanted to help them further purify their bodies. However, they did not return from their mission. Adam could only regretfully give up waiting and set off for York alone.
The interior and the border were similar. The only thing that surprised Adam was the floating fortresses that flew in the air.
Their purpose was to prevent powerful individuals of the Metal Eaters or other races with strange abilities from bypassing the border cities and entering the interior to cause destruction. In each fortress, there was only one Titan above the commander level who was responsible for activating the weapons. Usually, the operation route was fully automatic and controlled by a program written by the wise men in the inner city.
Adam did not hide his tinder along the way. This was the best proof of his identity.
Seven days later, Adam arrived at his destination, York City.
There were no walls in York City. The whole city was surrounded by a layer of energy shield. The architectural style inside was as usual, with the word "big."
After touching the energy shield, Adam's identity was automatically recorded. He waited for a few minutes, and a Titan flew at high speed from afar and said to him directly, "Newborn Mithril 44 from the Iron Castle, follow me, I'll take you to the tinder room."
Compared to the Iron Castle, York City was more orderly. Titans had to follow the rules and were not allowed to fly over the speed limit. The Titan leading the way seemed to have special authority. They did not attract any trouble along the way.
The two soon arrived at the tinder room. It looked like a library, but it was transparent. The main body of the building was underground. From the outside, one could only see that the cave was very deep.
The Titan leading the way patted Adam's shoulder and left. Another tall Titan walked out of the tinder room and took over the task of leading the way. He led Adam thousands of miles underground to the place where the dying tinder was stored. Every container here contained pure metal and countless high-quality energy blocks.
The energy they emitted gathered together, almost to the point of liquefying. Countless faintly glowing Fire Seeds were slowly being nurtured within. At a glance, it was impossible to count the exact number of Fire Seeds. It was easy to imagine just how high the death rate of the Titan Giants was.
The Titan led Adam to an empty container. Adam unlocked the magnetic field and put the tinder in. He watched as it merged with the metal and was surrounded by energy. Suddenly, the Titan's voice rang in his ears. "I am Qi 86. Iron 72 told me about you …"
