Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 1021

Chapter 1011 The First Successor of the Black Sun Tower! (Double votes requested!)

After Alfonso’s golden sword destroyed the skeletal form, the entire undead vanished completely. In that instant, the entire White Cardamom Farm also collapsed entirely.

Everyone ascended to a new dimension, returning to their original dimension.

The group stood above the fragrant and beautiful Sky Garden.

At this moment, the Sun Ring Wizard, Juliussis, pointed to the enormous Sky Tree floating in the sky and said, “Look, the Sky Tree is falling towards the Sky Garden!”

“Fortunately, we prepared a magic array in advance, otherwise our Golden Crown Mountain would have suffered too heavy a loss this time.”

Everyone immediately followed his finger and looked. They saw that the magnificent peach tree, as large as a canopy, had landed in a huge pit in the center of the Sky Garden. At the moment of landing, the earthen ball at the base of the Sky Tree combined with the pit in the Sky Garden. In just an instant, layer upon layer of magic arrays appeared near the huge pit.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: Read Taiwanese novels at Taiwan Novel Network, ҉҉t҉҉w҉҉k҉a҉҉n.҉҉c҉҉o҉m. Read as you like.]

The fire magic wizard, Maxuras, asked in surprise, “The Sky-Piercing Tree has landed in the Hanging Gardens, and the related magic arrays have already been prepared. Maxuras, I remember that the higher the level of the magical plant, the more complex the transplantation, requiring extensive preparation and precise drawing. A slight mistake could cause huge losses, right?”

The chubby wizard Maxuras noticed many wizards secretly watching him, and an awkward smile appeared on his face.

This was a difficult question to answer.

If he answered against his conscience, seriously violating common sense, then everyone was watching, and he would be ruining his reputation in his professional field. But if he answered directly, he would offend certain people he couldn’t afford to offend.

Locke suddenly spoke up, “None of that matters anymore. The most important thing is that undead have appeared in the Cardamom Farm.

I remember that in the Key Laboratory, many life magic experiments required isolating themselves from the influence of other magic. But the Key Laboratory possesses such powerful necromantic magic, so the data from many experiments—”

Many wizards felt a chill run down their spines.

Juliussis Sun Ring suddenly slapped his thigh and said, “Damn it, if that’s the case, no wonder I’ve been in the Cardamom Farm for thirty-one years and haven’t been able to get the data I wanted. It’s because of the undead. Someone must have introduced the power of the undead into the Key Laboratory.”

Trajan the Wizard approached.

“Mr. Juliussis, there are indeed wizards who have used the Cardamom Farm to apply for the Third Circle Fund and successfully become Third Circle Wizards. I think the undead may not have had a significant impact on your experimental results, but it’s not to say they had none.”

“But why would undead appear in the Cardamom Farm?”

The chubby breeder Maxius walked to Locke’s side and gave him a grateful look, because if it weren’t for Locke, he would have been really embarrassed to answer such a question suddenly asked by a friend in front of everyone.

Maxius whispered to Locke, “Mr. Augustine, I apologize for any offense I may have caused. It seems you were right to protect your student.”

“I hope you don’t misunderstand me,”

Locke said. “We were simply doing our jobs.”

Wizard Maxius smiled slightly. “It seems this time, we really have to leave the Cardamom Farm. For some reason, after leaving the Cardamom Farm, I feel my thinking in breeding has become clearer and more focused, perhaps even more acute.” “

I was truly a frog in a well before,”

Wizard Maxius said to Locke. “Before, I was in the key laboratory, thinking it was a wonderful place, and therefore looked down on the outside world and its wizards. But after my battle with you, and being forced to come to the outside world, now that I see that key laboratory crumbling, I thought I would be very sad, but I’m not as heartbroken as I thought.”

“There’s even a hint of elation,”

Wizard Maxius murmured. “It seems most wizards in the key laboratory share my feelings. That’s why the key laboratory was destroyed. Because this is what everyone wanted.”

Nearby, wizards were arguing about why undead had appeared in the Cardamom Farm and who the Lord of Laws was.

While they were debating, the Sky-Piercing Tree, aided by the magic array, took root completely, its previously withered roots beginning to fuse with the ground.

Juliussis Sun Ring exclaimed, “Look everyone! The Sky-Piercing Tree isn’t declining; it’s thriving!”

A third-ring wizard’s avatar whispered, “The Sky-Piercing Tree’s roots had been withering before. Even though we used special methods to temporarily alleviate the root problem, we couldn’t solve its decline. Now it seems those special holographic undead have been hiding in the roots of the Sky-Piercing Tree, causing its withering.”

“The Sky-Piercing Tree is a plant of truth. If it didn’t want to leave the White Cardamom Farm, how could it possibly leave the key laboratory due to the experimental accidents of a few juniors?”

Juliussis said. “So, the Sky-Piercing Tree not only won’t wither and die after leaving the White Cardamom Farm, but it can also thrive.”

“Then it seems we were worrying unnecessarily.”

At this moment, the Sky-Piercing Tree was officially transplanted. It began to grow larger and taller, as if it wanted to connect with the sky and the earth, to connect with the cosmos from the ground, from this sky garden.

Everyone then realized that the White Cardamom Farm had restricted the growth of the Sky-Piercing Tree.

The Sky-Piercing Tree continued to grow taller and larger, its surface shimmering with starlight, quickly exceeding the area of the sky garden and covering everyone. Then, Locke felt the starlight of the Sky-Piercing Tree brush against his face, and then the starlight that the Sky-Piercing Tree had transformed into continued to fly outward.

Infinitely large, infinitely far.

In that instant, these two words flashed through Locke’s mind.

At this moment, as the Sky-Piercing Tree continued to grow, it merged with the surrounding world. When the ever-rising starlight subsided, everyone saw a magnificent peach tree, vibrant with color and lush with leaves, growing at the core of the Hanging Gardens.

However, that was not the true form of the Sky-

Piercing Tree. Its true form had ascended to a higher dimension, while the Sky-Piercing Tree they saw before them was its true form in their current dimension.

Catherine the Witch’s avatar walked along the cobblestone path of the Hanging Gardens.

As she walked, she said, “The dimension of the Sky-Piercing Tree is always higher than the dimension of the region where it is planted. Therefore, the previous virtual laboratory was created by utilizing this characteristic of the Sky-Piercing Tree. Although you are in the virtual laboratory, it is similar to the real world. But this was just a helpless act of the Golden Dragon Wizard in the past. Back then, Golden Crown Mountain was an anomaly, a public enemy, and an evil force of the world in the pure-blood era.” “

Therefore, the Golden Dragon Wizard had to reduce our dimension and take us to escape the enemy’s pursuit. Our ancestors transformed themselves into information within a flower, or information within a magic book. Sometimes, the White Cardamom Farm would even become a painting, a dream, or an illusion. Reducing our dimension, in essence, is to lower us to the dimension of illusion.”

“Times have changed. The Cardamom Farm should have changed long ago, but some people believed that ancestral laws should not be changed, or perhaps the investment was too high, so they dared not change it, and thus it has been delayed until now. Now—”

Under the gaze of everyone, the witch Catherine said, “Who could have predicted that a failed experiment by the Senate would lead to the destruction of the laboratory? You all need not be too sad.”

“There are disadvantages to not changing, and advantages to changing.”

“The undead and the Cardamom Farm, in essence, exist in the same dimension.”

Many wizards were all confused, because they could not understand why the witch Catherine would say that the Cardamom Farm and the undead exist in the same dimension.

What is the relationship between them?

The witch Catherine said, “I will use my great magic to minimize the damage. The remaining resources of the Cardamom Farm will enter this Sky Garden. The process for the Sky Garden to reapply to become a key laboratory is already underway and is more than halfway complete. In just one month, the Sky Garden will become a new key laboratory.”

Many wizards present applauded.

They didn’t care about the state of the farm; all they cared about was whether their experiments could continue. The key breeding laboratory at Golden Crown Mountain was gone, causing headaches for many Sun Ring Wizards, Moon Ring Wizards, and even Third Ring Wizards. Hearing Catherine the Witch’s words, they immediately felt that the problem of not having a key laboratory was solved.

Juliussis, the Sun Ring Wizard, had a gleam in his eyes.

“Mr. Trajan,” he said, “my students and I have worked hard at the White Cardamom Farm for thirty-one years without achieving the results I want. Now, perhaps we can succeed in a different place. That’s good.”

Trajan wore a complicated expression.

“I think you—never mind—”

At this moment, a wizard asked the witch Catherine, “Your Majesty, do you know why there are undead at the Cardamom Farm?”

The witch Catherine replied, “The Academic Committee must investigate this matter immediately. We have already sent members of the Ethics and Morality Review Committee to investigate. If you saw my student, the wizard Locke Augustine, fighting with his colleagues, he was conducting the investigation. However, more investigation results are needed to determine the specifics. In addition, a higher-level Ethics and Morality Review Committee is now required to confirm the matter. The White Wizard Association of Cloud Marsh Wetlands should intervene in this matter.” “

At present, I can only say that the form of the Cardamom Farm attracted the undead. The undead are products of form; they are very superficial, extremely superficial, yet they believe they possess everything. One manifestation of this superficiality is that the data on paper looks good, but there is no substance. The better the data looks, the faster something will fail.”

The witch Catherine smiled and said, “The undead will never win; they do not understand the weight of life. They are such superficial things.”

“And for a long time, the Cardamom Farm has also exhibited similar characteristics. Wizards who seek the truth should be wary,”

said the witch Catherine. “This confrontation with the undead will definitely not be the last. The undead are not the most frightening thing; what’s more important is what lies behind them.”

“You want to pursue the truth, but many people often become merely pursuing the form of truth.”

“The test is always there.”

“A short-term victory will not bring long-term results,”

Catherine said to the many wizards. “Everyone, especially those wizards still in the Star Forging stage, you must be especially careful.”

“If you fail the test even once, you will never have anything to do with the truth in your life,

” Catherine said. “Many people mistakenly believe that the higher a wizard’s magic level, the safer they are, but this is a wrong view. It is precisely because you have reached this point that you have gone astray, going astray on a path that others have no right to go astray on.

Because many people have never even walked this path, how can they go astray?”

Many wizards applauded for the second time.

Catherine the Witch watched as the magic of the towering trees and the Hanging Gardens began to merge, completing half of the Hanging Gardens’ progress. Resources that had fallen from the key laboratory, and those that would become available in the future, would continuously flow into the Hanging Gardens project.

Catherine the Witch extended her right hand, and two marriage rings fell into her grasp from the air.

“Very good,”

Catherine the Witch said, turning and leaving.

Several wizards, wanting to consult her, kept asking questions, but Catherine the Witch seemed not to hear them and quickly departed.

Meanwhile, wizards from Golden Crown Mountain began arranging the next steps, guiding the mortals and wizards of White Cardamom Farm to leave the Hanging Gardens in an orderly fashion and settle in the wizard town at the foot of Golden Crown Mountain. Some were even left in a temporarily uninhabited wizard town on the Hanging Gardens and given the task of maintaining it.

White Cardamom Farm had millions of mortals and many businesses.

However, the Hanging Gardens were indeed vast, as its foundation was Sky City.

Locke then heard the voice of the witch Catherine.

“Locke, you did a great job this time. You’ve helped me a lot. I was right to entrust you with this key sub-project. After today, I’m one step closer to becoming a fourth-circle wizard. This hanging garden will become an important asset for me to complete the Ten-Person Project fund.” “

Although you were just following my orders, if it weren’t for your unwavering will and steadfastness in the face of numerous choices, even if my plan succeeded, it wouldn’t be so perfect. I will reward you.” “

Come to my office. However, you’ll have to suffer a loss in name this time, but I will compensate you in reality.

After all, you still made a mistake, although I can use the committee member position I gave you in advance to cover most of the legal issues.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t make you compensate for this loss. As long as you listen to me from now on, with my manipulation, you won’t only avoid losing money and becoming a debt slave, but you can also make a fortune.”

The illusion of the witch Catherine seemed to appear beside him, her eyes filled with admiration.

The illusion vanished the next moment, and Locke felt something being stuffed into his pocket. He reached for his pouch and found a pair of testing rings—the third pair of testing rings given to him by the witch Catherine.

A message from Catherine flashed through his mind: “The marriage rings have been greatly improved. This testing ring is different from the previous ones. According to my previous principles, I shouldn’t be able to test you anymore.

But you trust me, and I must repay you with equal trust. Give these two rings to two wizards who truly love each other, and these two rings will help them fulfill one of their wishes. As the one who bestows the rings, you will receive a feedback of increased magical pressure. In other words, this is a star ring resource, but it must never be seen by any third-ring wizard. If it is seen, I will have to pay a huge price.” “

But you can show it to the witch Rose, and you must make sure she sees it in a place where no one is around.”

Locke watched his teacher leave.

He was astonished; this small magical artifact ring had actually become a star ring resource. The key was that he had participated in the entire process of upgrading and manufacturing this ring, watching it transform from an ordinary magical artifact into an anchor point for destroying a key laboratory, and even into a star ring resource.

It was a unique feeling.

Locke felt a sense of pride.

Because, perhaps, in the end, he could even be credited with the marriage ring project developed by the witch Catherine.

However—

the purpose of the marriage ring development, as far as he knew, was to eliminate the hidden danger of his Red Dragon Throne teacher’s own dragon soul.

Locke pondered: “The dragon soul seems to become a hidden danger at the third ring stage. Besides that, it’s about fusing powers related to great magic. But the question is, given how much his teacher cared about this project, and the fact that it has become a star ring resource, is it really just a magical artifact for fusing two people’s great magic?”

Locke felt that his teacher was truly unfathomable.

In fact, even now, he still didn’t understand what use the research his teacher conducted in the six groups of the Institute of True Knowledge was to the witch Catherine.

At this moment, the third-ring wizards gradually left.

The Sun Ring Wizards and Moon Ring Wizards, seemingly eager to conduct their experiments and assess their losses, gradually left.

At this point, most of the remaining wizards were below the Star Ring level, undergoing identity verification before they could leave or enter the wizard town of the Hanging Gardens.

Locke, thanks to the ethical review committee position given to him by the witch Catherine beforehand, was surprisingly exempt from questioning despite being the direct perpetrator of the lab’s collapse.

Locke observed staff carefully examining each wizard’s connections to the Void Gods and recent contact with the undead.

He, along with the wizard Moromuta and the witch Planknia, who had just recovered from her shock, prepared to leave.

Locke said to the two, “If you two have nowhere to go for the time being, go to the laboratory of Teacher Catherine the Witch at the True Knowledge Institute, Group 2. I have some influence there.”

Witch Planknia whispered, “Okay, Teacher.”

“Teacher, thank you. If it weren’t for you protecting me this time—”

Locke said to her, “I told you before. Although you were a participant in this matter, it’s hard to say how much you’re actually involved. You don’t need to feel guilty, because this is a matter for us elders. In this matter, no matter how you act, you can’t change the outcome.” “

Therefore, you don’t need to reflect.”

“Because reflecting this time is meaningless.”

Witch Planknia looked at Locke gratefully.

“I understand. Teacher, thank you.”

Although this matter is over, in fact, the resonance between her student and the Sky-Piercing Tree will continue. In that case, she will likely be unable to leave Golden Crown Mountain for a long time and will not be allowed to go out.

As for how Golden Crown Mountain will deal with her,

that may depend on the significance of the discussion above and her teacher’s intentions.

As the grandson of one of the three Fists of the Senate, Moromuta the Wizard certainly had a place to go, but at this moment, he seemed to have no intention of going to the Senate.

In his view, the Fist King’s grandson wasn’t just one, but thousands, of whom dozens had become full-fledged wizards, even second-circle wizards.

He wasn’t the most important one.

This was evident from how he had been used as a pawn and a expendable fodder in this incident.

Therefore, Moromuta the Wizard was determined to follow Locke.

At this time, Antiochus, Marcus, and Maxius also exchanged ideas, deciding to join the Academic Committee in the real world, or even stay in the Hanging Gardens in the future.

The three talked amicably.

They even took the initiative to greet Locke, in an effort to ease the unpleasantness caused by their previous hostility towards him.

Having been defeated individually by Locke, the three were completely convinced of his superiority and held no resentment whatsoever.

Antiochus chuckled, “Things are finally resolved satisfactorily. And it seems that with this Hanging Gardens, everyone will have a place to go. Including the Arathis. Hmm? Lord Guberdin?”

At this moment, the wizard Guberdin remained kneeling on the ground, his face streaked with tears.

He raised his head, his gaze filled with intense hatred as he looked at Antiochus.

“The Hanging Gardens replacing the farm? How can they replace it? They don’t even deserve it! How can they replace it?”

A deep malice manifested as a heavy magical pressure, bearing down on everyone.

Locke, Antiochus, Machoras, and Maxius were all victims of this pressure.

The chubby breeder Maxius blushed crimson.

“Wizard Guberdin, what are you doing? There are no enemies here anymore,”

Machoras said. “Wizard Guberdin, the farm is destroyed, but the important thing is people, not—”

Locke sensed something amiss, because he felt the lingering power of the Lich God resonating wildly within his dragon bloodline, while Guberdin’s deep hatred for the undead seemed to be summoning some kind of power.

“Lord, Golden Crown Mountain is still your home,”

Locke said sincerely.

The wizard Guberdin abruptly looked up at Locke, his eyes gleaming crimson, filled with a deep-seated hatred and madness.

“Golden Crown Mountain is not our home; the farm is the home of us Alarite people. Back then, the Golden Dragon Wizard planted the Sky-Piercing Tree, hoping we, his descendants, would protect his legacy. But look at what you’ve done! The farm cannot be destroyed, and it must never be destroyed!”

The Alarite wizards and mortals behind Guberdin stared in astonishment at their chieftain.

They had already accepted the destruction of the White Cardamom Farm and were prepared to start anew on Golden Crown Mountain,

for it was Golden Crown Mountain that had sheltered their ancestors.

But Guberdin seemed incredibly stubborn; he felt betrayed. He stood up and swept his gaze over the wizards.

“Nobody cares—none of you care about the life or death of the farm. The farm is destroyed, and not a single one of them cares.”

Wizard Maxius tried to approach, but in the next instant, a torrent of deep malice surged towards him.

The wizard Guberdin glared at him with hatred.

“Don’t come any closer. You’re all murderers, all of you are murderers.”

“In my opinion, the first person responsible for destroying the farm is the undead, and the second person responsible is you wizards of Golden Crown Mountain. Our Alarite home is the farm, but you destroyed it. You are not worthy to be descendants of the Golden Dragon Wizards. In that case, what reason do I have to stay at Golden Crown Mountain?”

Locke was taken aback.

Could the other party be planning to betray Golden Crown Mountain?

However, he didn’t know what kind of contract the other party had signed with Golden Crown Mountain. If the contract was lenient, he could indeed leave.

But he was afraid that in his anger, the other party wouldn’t want to make any compensation. Of course, there was also a high probability that Golden Crown Mountain would think that he was just having a moment of weakness and was temporarily leaving the academy, so they might not care too much about this matter.

The wizard Guberdin roared at Locke and the others, “You four are all murderers!

I will not forgive you, but I will not be your enemy either. I will take my own revenge on the dead!

“

Suddenly, a clock-like magical model appeared before Guberdin, spinning in front of him. At the six o’clock position, the clock’s hour hand abruptly stopped, and a holographic flower appeared before him.

The wizards Antiochus and the others looked puzzled.

“What is this? Such powerful magical pressure!”

Guberdin reached out and grabbed the holographic flower.

“An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. From this day forward, I will be sworn enemies of the dead.”

The holographic flower shone with the magical brilliance of the Golden School.

A golden magic mirror appeared beside him.

Within that golden mirror appeared the shadow of a six-headed dragon, and the embers of time shrouded the top of the Hanging Gardens like ashes.

All the wizards except Locke could only shield their eyes with their hands, as the embers of those eras constantly tried to enter them.

The six-headed dragon in the golden mirror let out a cold laugh.

“Hatred, stubbornness, faith, and perseverance. You are the best candidate to receive our sacrificial magic.”

“Guberdin, Golden Crown Mountain and those wizards have disappointed you. But there is a power that transcends time, far beyond your understanding of magic.”

“We have hunted the undead for countless years.”

“We are experts.”

At this moment, the golden sword Locke had used to kill that undead flew over automatically and fell into the dragon’s hand.

The spell model on the golden sword in the six-headed dragon’s hand began to change automatically. “Hmm? What kind of power is this?”

In the golden mirror, the six-headed dragon used its claws to split the golden sword in two. One part was a new golden sword created using its power, based on the spell model of Locke’s Alfonso’s golden sword; the other part was a golden sword formed from Locke’s original power. The

six-headed dragon originally intended to directly use Locke’s power to form the golden sword for inheritance.

But he discovered that Locke’s Alfonso’s golden sword had become a self-contained entity, containing abyssal energy, so he directly split it in two.

“Not bad.”

The six-headed dragon looked at Locke, and the golden sword flew back into Locke’s hand. The six-headed dragon turned to look at Locke. “

Intruder in the Dragon War, uninvited guest, I wonder what changes you will bring to this era’s Dragon War.” “

Guberdin the Wizard, I will teach you a new spell—Belissau’s Sword of Victory!”

Locke looked at the reconstructed golden sword in the six-headed dragon’s hand. The other party made no attempt to conceal the spell model, directly revealing it.

Locke’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he quickly recorded the golden spell.

But this time, even he couldn’t quickly learn the spell by looking at the spell model.

It seemed to be an extremely profound Star Ring level golden spell, or perhaps even higher.

Was this the true golden spell inheritance that the six-headed dragon had told him about, the one that only the Twelve Flowers could learn?

Guberdin the Wizard extended his palm.

“If I accept this power, can I take revenge on the dead?”

the six-headed dragon laughed. “That was the very theme of this war of dragon transformation.”

“Belisarius’s sword of victory is invincible. You will be unbeatable in this great ceremony. With this sword in hand, no one can stand against you, and all forms will be at your command.”

“But that undead just now claimed that his master was the Lord of Forms, the Lord of Laws!” said the wizard Guberdin.

The six-headed dragon in the golden mirror showed disgust.

“Did he really say that? This is the reason for the corruption of this era. Without so many dark wizards, how could those undead be so powerful? In the Age of Stars, there were undead everywhere, hanged by mortals, and now they dare to make such claims. They are indeed slaves to forms, and laws are indeed forms. But for them to say they are the Lords of Laws is laughable.” “

The Lich God is definitely not the Lord of Laws.”

“He is just a pathetic and superficial undead.”

Wizard Guberdin reached out and grasped Belisarius’s Sword of Victory.

“Since that’s the case, I’m relieved. As long as I can kill the undead, I don’t care if I cooperate with anyone.”

At this moment, the Sword of Victory melted, and the gold flowed down his skin, into his body, and became a golden armor on his body.

The Alarit was clad in golden armor, growing immensely tall, and wearing a golden mask. A dark sun pattern adorned his forehead.

The wizard Guberdin said, “An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. From this day forward, I will become the sword of vengeance, slaying all the dead. You have no objections, do you, a member of the Tower of the Black Sun?”

The six-headed dragon within the golden mirror laughed, “That is precisely why I chose you. But do not forget that there are twelve others who will compete with you. They may interfere with your vengeance; you must defeat them.

” “Go.”

The six-headed dragon glanced in Locke’s direction and muttered, “How interesting.”

Then, the golden mirror shattered into countless golden specks and vanished.

Behind his golden mask, the wizard Guberdin spoke coldly,

“Those who stand in my way of vengeance, die.”

The next moment, he summoned his ultimate magic, the Heavenly Curtain.

The wizard Guberdin looked at his kin.

“Is there anyone willing to come with me?”

At this moment, the embers of time gradually died down, and the Alarit people all hesitated, not one daring to step forward.

The wizard Guberdin sneered, “Cowardly and weak.”

A flame appeared before him; Maklas, through the Primal Pull-Touch, locked onto him.

“Wizard Guberdin, don’t act rashly!”

“If you leave Golden Crown Mountain like this, you’ll be wanted. You’ll become a dark wizard.”

“There must be other ways to solve this problem; don’t be impulsive.”

A sword appeared in Guberdin’s hand, filled with terrifying golden magic.

“I feel excellent right now. If you want to attack me, you can try. I said I won’t consider you my enemies. But if anyone tries to stop me from taking my revenge, I will destroy them.”

Guberdin looked at Wizard Maklas, then, through his school of spellcasting’s immense magic, the Sky Curtain, he opened a portal behind him. Then, while locked eyes with Wizard Maklas, who focused on fire magic, he slowly walked into the portal behind him.

“You’re very clever,” said the wizard Guberdin.

He swung Belisarius’s Sword of Victory, instantly cleaving a space in two. He glanced at Locke one last time before disappearing completely into the portal. The space he had cut with the Sword of Victory—

unable to heal, healed extremely slowly.

Locke’s mind was replaying the spell model of Belisarius’s Sword of Victory, but he couldn’t complete it yet.

“Could it be that each of the Twelve Flower Heirs receives a different inheritance? Alfonso’s Golden Sword is just a basic spell model.” “

That’s why the six-headed dragon said I didn’t receive the true inheritance.” “

Then even Belisarius’s Sword of Victory probably isn’t the final magic, just something corresponding to Guberdin’s Star Ring level. “

When the embers of time disappeared, many wizards still didn’t know what had just happened.

Maxius and his companions watched their old friend, Lord Guberdin, leave Golden Crown Mountain, their reactions varying.

Maxius sighed.

“The situation is too chaotic right now. I never expected Wizard Guberdin to be so foolish. Even more unexpected was his contact with such strange powers.”

Wizard Maxius looked at Locke and said, “Wizard Locke, I’m sorry to have made you laugh this time. It seems we are truly riddled with holes.”

“If the academy investigates you and wants to take action against you, I will speak on your behalf.”

“After all, you were the hero this time.”

Wizard Maxius twirled a walnut in his left hand. “The wizards here have too much evil energy, possibly from prolonged exposure to the undead and living with them. I’ll be leaving now.”

Wizard Antiochus said to Locke, “Mr. Augustine, I’ll come back to discuss our understanding of bloodlines

with you next time. It seems you’re still more knowledgeable than me.” Wizard Maclas said to Locke, “Mr. Augustine, I’d like to challenge you to a duel in fire magic someday. Your new Star Ring Magic Plant—it’s quite special. It absorbed all my fire magic during the battle, causing me to lose. But I’m not sure if it was because you received secret help from the Sky Tree.”

Locke waved to them.

“Alright, we’ll have another chance to spar.”

Locke, along with his students and Wizard Moromota, boarded a cloud whale and quickly left the Sky Garden, heading towards the Dune Plane where Group 2 was located.

In the Dune plane, Sith Sunring Wizard looked at Locke with surprise as he led a first-ring wizard and a second-ring wizard into Group 2.

Sith Sunring Wizard was beaming, because having an extra second-ring wizard in Group 2 was a huge boost for him as the group leader.

Locke was really giving him face, even managing to recruit a second-ring wizard for his group.

Sith Sunring Wizard looked at Moromuta Wizard, coughed, and said, “Sure, that’s fine. But you need to abide by the rules of our Group 2. If you dare to break the rules, I will ask you to leave immediately.”

Although Sith Wizard was very happy to have a young second-ring wizard join him for free, he still had to maintain his composure.

Sith Wizard left the common office.

Locke then said to Mason and the other two, “Mason, you two show these two wizards around the environment of Group 2.

” “

Moromuta, the environment of the Dune Plane is not as good as that of Star City.”

The wizard Moromuta certainly knew this, as they had already encountered a lot of yellow sand when they came here.

But at this moment, he was blinded by love, and as long as he could be with Plankonia, he didn’t care about anything else.

The wizard Moromuta said, “It’s alright, this is fine, Lord Augustine.”

“Lord Augustine, I have another suggestion. You see, Plankonia is your student, so why can’t I become your student?”

Locke quickly said to the witch Mason, “Mason, Freya, Barrett, and Gregor, you all need to get along well. The three of you will be going to war this year, right? With the help of the wizard Moromuta, I think your departure will be very smooth.”

“Alright, I’m going now.”

Locke quickly left, preparing to go to the witch Catherine’s side. After all, he could never agree to the wizard Moromuta’s outrageous idea of becoming his disciple.

Even if he dared to agree, he doubted the Senate would allow it.

The wizard Moromuta looked at Locke strangely as he quickly left.

“Lord Augustine?”

On the road to the Temple of Truth at Mount Golden Crown, Locke encountered Antoine.

The wizard Antoine smiled wryly at Locke, “Locke, you’ll have to make amends this time. I have a discovery on an ancient planet that might interest you.

“
