In front of the shiny door, Ms Grace swept the sweat on her forehead. Finally, after fighting for an hour, they defeated the monster king and opened the door to the next layer.
"Alright, guys. Mission complete. Thank you so much. Time to go home" Ms Grace gave instructions to her member.
Once the door was formed, no one could close it, not even a level 90 cloud holder. So, no man was needed to protect the door.
The members of Daylight Order were retreating, helping their comrade and healing those who were injured.
Then, all of them left together.
...
Daylight Order building.
In the Ms Grace's room, Alvin saw teacher Elias take out a paper from his bag.
"Ms Grace, here is the information you want. I tested some of the cloud plants. Some of them got poison, some of them don't"
Alvin saw Ms Grace take the note. The paper was full of writing about the new cloud plant.
Looking at the paper, Ms Grace nodded.
"Very informative. I am quite surprised you can tell the components of a plant by tasting them. Some even got poison."
"Just a knowledge about plants" Elias smiled.
"Thank you so much Mr Elias. As promised, I will pay you and Mr Christopher 10000 dollars in total. On top of that, with this information, the Daylight Order will reward you with 10 reward coins."
"Thank you" Mr Elias said with a short nod.
"Ms Grace, I also got a cloud plant. And information about a cloud monster." Alvin said as he took out a glass container. Inside was the pink colour flower that he found underground.
Then, Alvin told Ms Grace about the snake cloud monster. Of course, Alvin didn't tell her about the storage ring.That would only put himself in danger.
Although he was the one who got the cloud item, only teacher Elias and Charles knew it. All the others though thta the Infernal Order got the cloud item. Alvin was happy to let it be like that.
"Nice one Alvin, with this you have completed one B class mission and one A class mission."
Of course, Charles also had some finding in the spire, he found some cloud plants and cloud monsters.
After claiming the reward from Daylight Order, Alvin got 6 reward coins in total, 3 from the A class mission, 2 from the B class mission and 1 for catching the thief, Ben. So, he got 4 coins in total.
With the reward coin they had, Alvin used 3 coins for Icicle Fern and 3 coins for Skywhisper reed.
Charles exchanged a rank 4 thunder stone for his cloud cultivation.
Alvin smiled as he looked at the material on his hand. He had a lot of gain in this spire journey. Now, he had gathered all the necessary material to upgrade his Phoenix Rebirth. He even got cloud items, the Storage Ring.
With that, they walked back to the academy.
...
In the room, a purple light was shimmering and glowing around Charles. He was holding the thunder stone that he earned and doing his cloud cultivation on his bed. The thunder stone would speed up his cloud cultivation.
As of Alvin, he was seated at his desk, looking at the storage ring and the notes that came along with it.
"Storage ring. Function : A space to store items. Requirement: Unlock the space with gems.
Rank 1 gem - Unlock 0.3X0.3X0.3 meter cube
Rank 2 gem - Unlock 0.5X0.5X0.5 meter cube
Rank 3 gem - Unlock 0.7X0.7X0.7 meter cube
Rank 4 gem - Unlock 1.0X1.0X1.0 meter cube
...."
"Unlock space with gems? How?" Alvin frowned and mumbled to himself.
Alvin took out a rank 1 gem and looked at the storage ring.
The storage ring was in silver colour. Although it was a precious cloud item, its appearance was like an ordinary ring, which was a good thing for Alvin. He could disguise it as an ordinary ring.
"Unlock" Alvin touched the ring with the rank 1 gem. Yet, nothing happened.
"Unlock" Still, nothing happened. Alvin looked at the storage, frowning.
"hmm, is it because of the cloud energy?" Alvin thought to himself.
Then, he applied his cloud energy to the storage ring, at the same time holding the gem.
A dim light flashed on the ring and the gem broke into pieces.
"So...I unlocked the storage ring? How do I access it?"Alvin's eyes widened and thought.
This was the first time Alvin played with a cloud item. Although he had been studying for months about the cloud world, there wasn't much information about the cloud item.
The first reason was no one who owned the cloud item would tell people their cloud items' function.
The second reason was every cloud item would have a different way to use it. Every cloud item came with a requirement to use it.Some needed gems, some required the owner to be a soul form, some required the owner to sing a song when using the cloud item. So, Alvin could only test it by himself.
After all, this was a new cloud item.
Alvin focused his cloud energy on the ring, trying to access the space inside. Fortunately, he succeeded.
Now, he was able to sense the 0.3X0.3X0.3 meter cube space in the ring. He held a pencil near the storage ring. With a little bit of cloud energy, Alvin managed to put it into the ring.
Then, he could take it out with a bit of cloud energy. After doing some experiments with the storage ring, Alvin smiled. He was happy with its function. With this storage ring, he could bring lots of things with him without bearing the heavy weight.
Then, instead of putting food or bag, he started to put all his magic circles, gems, and magic material into the storage ring. He believed it was the best way to use it. He could take out his magic circle easily, no matter how heavily or how large it was.
