Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 1049

Chapter 1034 was published on the front page of “Yunze,” and everyone’s reaction!

In a small hut at the Root Crown Royal Court branch in the Yunze Wetlands, Locke, following the instructions of the Sea Queen, continuously adjusted the magical flames and added medicinal herbs. Then, he used almost all of his spiritual knowledge to brew a potion.

Locke gave the potion to the Star Ring Wizard from the Ancient Vine Village, Wizard Land, Mengluo Ancient Vine. He frowned slightly and hummed softly. Originally, he had fallen into a deep coma after drinking the Spiral Shadow Potion, but now he actually reacted and showed body language. Soon, he sat up half asleep, then sat in place, lost in a daze.

He shook his head, surprised, and said, “My magic pressure—why has my magic pressure dropped back to just over 20,000? What happened?”

The old wizard Everett Moss of the Dream Vine quickly came over and excitedly helped up his most prized junior.

“It’s good that he’s awake, it’s good that he’s awake.”

“But Lady Helen, why is my grandson’s magic pressure completely gone—”

The Sea Queen glanced at him and then said, “This is not surprising, it wasn’t a serious matter to begin with. Wizards in the Void Forging stage have too weak a sense of belonging to their forms, they are simply not strong enough to protect their forms. He was poisoned by the Spiral Shadow Potion, it’s perfectly normal for him to lose some magic pressure.”

The old wizard Everett Moss muttered to himself.

“That’s true.”

He smiled bitterly.

“But this time, we’ve suffered a great loss.”

The Sea Queen reminded Everett Moss.

“This time, our debts are settled. From now on, neither of us owes the other anything.”

Everett Moss bowed to the Sea Queen. “Thank you, Your Highness. And thank you to the wizard Augustine who lent a helping hand. If you hadn’t personally concocted the potion, my grandson wouldn’t have woken up.”

“If you ever come to Ancient Vine Village and pass by the Dream Vine, you can come find me,”

Everett Moss said softly, supporting his grandson. “It’s alright. Magic pressure can be improved later. The important thing is that you’ve woken up. It’s good that you’ve woken up.”

After the two left the small cabin, Locke took on the work of an assistant, tidying up the things on the table. Essentially, he was now just helping the Sea Queen with her house calls and personally concocting potions.

The Sea Queen said to Locke, “Locke, when you first came to my advanced class, your potion-making skills were absolutely terrible. I didn’t even dare to criticize you back then; you were like a tiny flame, about to be extinguished by a gust of wind. But this time, your potion-making skills are already acceptable. Although, if I had to find fault, I could point out many mistakes.”

“You do have talent. You need to work hard.”

“By the way, your current ultimate magic’s illusory forging seems to have improved further. Not bad, this will help you increase your magic pressure faster.”

Locke blinked, quite speechless.

It wasn’t because of the Sea Queen’s words, but because of his past self. He had mistaken a better illusory forging for a fake forging. If it weren’t for that letter from sixty years ago, he probably wouldn’t have recovered in a few years.

Of course, his resources might be better than those of the person involved in that accident back then.

For example, right now, the Sea Queen directly pointed out his essence in one sentence: giving ultimate magic a target and letting spiritual energy flow in it is just a better illusory forging, not approaching a fake forging.

With just one sentence, she could save him from countless detours.

“Cognition is key.”

Cognitive ability determines the output of my research results, the speed at which I increase my magical pressure, and the speed at which I forge ultimate magic. If I treat having a goal as mere pseudo-forging, then I’ve completely gone down the wrong path, and the resulting thoughts will likely be completely misguided, leading to a situation like that of the wizard Probus.

Therefore, contacting high-ring wizards, and having their genuine help, is truly like walking on a high road to heaven, reducing a lot of trouble.

But Locke also thought that if a high-ring wizard’s words could improve his cognition, then it could also mislead his cognition. If a high-ring wizard deliberately misled a wizard in pseudo-forging, wouldn’t that completely lead that person into a trap?

The Sea Queen said to Locke, “Next time, if any wizards from the Tianjiang River come to me asking for potions, I’ll ask you to concoct potions for me too. Here, this is a fragment of a True Phoenix eggshell.”

Locke took the fragment, hesitated for a moment, but still said, “Lady Helen, I’m sorry, I must leave Yunze Wetlands for a while. Furthermore, I’ve withdrawn all my clones and am heading to a place that’s very important to me. Therefore, I’ll likely have to temporarily postpone my participation in the accelerated advancement class.”

The Sea Queen glanced at Locke.

“The choice is yours. It’s your decision to temporarily withdraw from the accelerated improvement class; I didn’t beg you to participate.

I just saw you have some talent, so I gave you some pointers.”

Locke bowed.

“I’m sorry, Sea Queen. What you taught me, especially regarding the Potion of Displacement, made me understand the boundless realm of Potions and its profound depth.”

“Recently, when I encountered an undead attack, I used a subspecies of the Potion of Displacement, the [Shapeshifting Potion], to ambush that dragon lich.”

The Sea Queen looked at Locke with surprise.

“A dragon lich? You mean you were attacked by undead when you left the Tianjiang coast? That’s impossible.”

Locke looked at the Sea Queen in confusion.

“Undead attacks are possible on anyone.”

The Sea Queen’s expression changed slightly. “You mean the undead attacked you, right there on the Tianjiang coast. I understand.”

“Lock Augustine, I’ve suddenly changed my mind.”

Locke looked at the witch strangely, wondering why this throne-level witch would suddenly change her mind.

The Sea Queen looked at Locke and tossed him a scroll.

“This scroll is called the Mountain Guest Jade Slip. It was given to me by the Mountain Guest in the past, a treasure that allows me to enter the Sea King’s world within him at any time. As long as you use it, you can enter the Mountain Guest’s inner world at any time. Anyway, my recent courses have all been about having you enter the Mountain Guest’s inner world to find ways to solve the problems within him. As long as you can enter his inner world, then my courses are optional. Of course, you can forget about the course rewards.”

“After you leave, it will probably be Anthony and my students’ world.”

“You can use this jade slip to enter the world within the Mountain Guest. Of course, the Doppelganger Potion and the Archangel Potion are arranged according to your potion-making progress. However, to solve the problems within the Mountain Guest and to conduct potion-making teaching, you don’t necessarily have to start with the Doppelganger Potion.

After you leave, I will teach according to the needs of the top student after you leave. This is very fair; geniuses must have privileges.”

The Sea Queen said, “And when you come back, whether you can catch up with the progress, or even regain your first place, is your own business.”

“Locke, you can keep it.”

“Return this to me when you come back.”

“My magic is on the Mountain Guest jade slip. As long as someone else uses it instead of you, the jade slip will automatically return to me,”

said the Sea Queen. “Good luck.” “

But Locke, I must remind you, half-heartedness will get you nowhere.”

The Sea Queen turned and left the cabin.

Locke watched the Sea Queen leave and breathed a sigh of relief. “Finally, I’m done. I thought I’d be forced to offend the Sea Queen, but I had no choice. It was my teacher’s order, and it concerns my future. The entire Tianjiang coast is under the watchful eye of the Starfield Sea.”

“But I didn’t expect that after I suddenly mentioned the undead, the Sea Queen would suddenly change her attitude? Why is that?”

“Never mind. No need to think about this unsolvable question.”

Locke decided not to think about it anymore. He looked at the jade slip. With this, he could enter the Mountain Guest’s inner world at any time, and if he could enter its inner world, he could improve his potion-making skills while heading to the Despair Valley Laboratory.

But at this moment, Locke remembered the Sea Queen’s warning.

Is it true that you can’t get anything done if you’re half-hearted?

Yes.

He studied Potions during his apprenticeship to support his Breeding studies, and later, at the first level, he probably had the same purpose. Now, second-level Potions and Breeding are incredibly vast and profound. Has his current half-hearted approach already reduced the efficiency of his efforts?

Just as this thought crossed Locke’s mind, he suddenly remembered the fairy dragon’s warning—that he possessed a potential in Potions that could be taken away from him.

He also thought of King Otto from the Age of Stars.

He had entrusted the legacy of Potions to him.

But what exactly was this potential?

How should he proceed on this path of Potions?

Locke sighed, “I’ll just take it one step at a time. Anyway, Potions has reached this point. Even if I only get a second-level Potions Master certificate, I can make a lot of money from it. I still have forty million in loans.”

“However, I really need to think about this matter carefully.”

Locke left the cabin, and then, as he was preparing to return to Golden Crown Mountain, he encountered the true form of Wizard Anthony.

Locke looked at Wizard Anthony, who was clearly full of confidence, his expression even more gentle. Anthony smiled at Locke and said, “Locke, hello. My progress in the competition along the Tianjiang River has been quite good lately. With fair competition and strict procedural regulations, I’m certain my application will win the first round.” “

We can also compete properly in the Potions class,”

Wizard Anthony added with a smile.

Locke nodded. “Wizard Anthony, congratulations. It’s just a pity that I have some matters to attend to and will be leaving Yunze Wetlands, so I won’t be attending the Potions class anymore.”   Wizard Anthony paused

, surprised. ”   You’re not going? You’re withdrawing from the accelerated advancement class? I thought your goal was to continue obtaining the Star Ring resources and the Throne inheritance from the advancement class.”   Locke said, “It’s not that I’m withdrawing. It’s just that I don’t have the energy, so I can’t manage both.”   Wizard Anthony pondered for a moment, “Not enough energy? How could you not have enough energy?”   ”We shouldn’t be saying things like that, Locke. As a genius in both breeding and potions, you can definitely balance the two. I’ve seen wizarding geniuses before who were talented in both fields, but as they became more proficient, they faced a dilemma. But later, they figured out how to complement each other, so pursuing both paths simultaneously wasn’t a disadvantage but an advantage.”   Wizard Anthony patted Locke on the shoulder and said, “Even a potions genius like me, with more experience than you, considers you my biggest rival in the Sea Queen’s Throne class. You actually want to quit? I won’t allow it. Locke, you must come back to the accelerated class.” Wizard Anthony   smiled and said, “I love competing with people, and I want to win fair and square, without any suspense. If you just desert like this, I’ll be very upset. Whether it’s along the Tianjiang River or at the Rootcrown Royal Court branch, I want to win.”   Locke nodded, his eyes lighting up. Wizard Anthony had indeed given him a good reminder.

What he should do now is not to worry about not having time to learn or research either one, but to think about how to make potion-making and breeding complementary, giving himself a greater advantage and

fully utilizing his strengths .

The wizard Anthony’s encouragement might have been just to find a competitor, but it certainly motivated him.

Locke said, “Mr. Anthony, of course I won’t give up on potion-making. But don’t regret your encouragement later.”

Wizard Anthony smiled, “Fair competition, what do I have to regret?”

He raised his left hand, adorned with a white angel ring, and said, “I’ve always believed that the stronger my enemy, the stronger I become. Or rather, not an enemy, but a competitor. We compete and improve together.”

He extended a hand to Locke.

“Then remember to come back. I’ll beat you fair and square in the Sea Queen’s accelerated advanced class.”

Locke shook his hand and said, “I will definitely come back.”

They smiled at each other, and then Locke quickly left.

Meanwhile, he pondered that he really needed to figure out his path in potions studies in the near future, and ideally, he would have a clear idea of his path by the time he returned to the accelerated improvement class to compete for first place.

He believed that at that time, he would undergo a complete transformation.

The green dragon vines on Locke’s body sensed his change of mood and became active, their branches and leaves constantly swaying within Locke’s sleeves.

Locke returned to his dormitory on a cloud whale, where an elven maid presented him with a letter and this month’s Yunze Journal.

Locke flipped through the Yunze Journal and found that his article, which he had submitted this month on how to cultivate Xuanwu Fangzhu and obtain Xuanwu Spirit Breath, had already reached page three of this issue’s Yunze Journal section. The first few pages were all research by Sun Ring Wizards; in fact, there were quite a few articles by Sun Ring Wizards published later in this issue than his own.

And all of this was thanks to the Jungle Star witch, Albin Thea, from the Hand of the Jungle.

At this moment, Locke flipped through this issue of Yunze, glancing at the other articles.

“There are still quite a few articles related to the plant crystallization technology.”

“I wonder how many wizards will flock to this technology, and Starfield Ocean is doing this simply to select the geniuses they want. Many of those wizards who invest in this area might have achieved higher ceilings if they had pursued other paths.”

The most severely affected by this are not the wizards with the lowest talent and achievements, but rather those mediocre wizards.

If they followed the proper path, they might have a chance to advance, but if they entered the plant crystallization technology field with others, it would be troublesome. They lack the talent, yet they aren’t completely destitute wizards.

Plant crystallization technology is a path where success is built on the bones of countless others; its existence is solely for selecting super geniuses.

Only super geniuses and many ordinary wizards benefit from it. Of course, even if someone is truly a super genius, it seems unnecessary to choose this path, as the number of super geniuses this technology can accommodate is limited.

Zeno has already taken this path; he is one of those who might ultimately benefit from it.

However, the extent of his gains is still uncertain, and problems may still arise.

Locke sighed, “It seems that every second-ring wizard I know is now in their own race, fiercely competing. I haven’t heard much from Zeno lately; he’s probably caught up in this war.”

Meanwhile, many wizards also obtained this issue of Yunze.

Some Moon Ring and Sun Ring wizards, as well as Star Ring wizards, whose articles had been published, opened this issue of Yunze to read.

To their surprise, they discovered that among the first few pages of Yunze, a Star Ring wizard’s name appeared, a list that was usually filled with Moon Ring and Sun Ring wizards. At

the Rose Council, Lana, the Sun Ring Witch, had just finished scolding a second-ring wizard student and was in a good mood. She took a sip of tea and then flipped through this issue of Yunze when suddenly her expression became strange.

“Hmm? It’s not surprising that Locke made it to Zone 1. He’s already published five papers, and now he has two more projects at the second-tier level.” “

But this time, his ranking is way too high, isn’t it?”

The witch Lana quickly finished reading Locke’s paper on the process of cultivating Bamboo Shoots. She keenly sensed that another wizard’s ideas had been mixed into the experimental process and results. It was another wizard’s approach, so powerful, so attractive.

The witch Lana closed her eyes, as if she felt a huge black hole, and her own form, thoughts, and even her own imprint were shifted because of it.

“It’s the thinking of a third-ring wizard, and not just any ordinary third-ring wizard.”

Witch Lana, looking at the article, took a sip of tea and smiled. “I don’t know how this kid managed to shamelessly swindle a half-finished experimental procedure and detailed data from a throne wizard. But this latter part must have been his own work; it’s quite impressive.”

“That’s ridiculous. With the help of a throne wizard, of course he can be at the top.”

Witch Lana thought of her “good-for-nothing” Star Ring student, and looking at Locke’s article, she was immediately filled with anger.

“Why can’t my student be so excellent? His article is published in the same journal as mine. It must be because he didn’t work hard enough.”

At Bonifacius Academy, Witch Georgina was reading this issue of Cloudze. After finishing an article about new textile magic in Cloudze, she prepared to close the journal. To train her sensitivity to textile magic and her keen perception of research directions, she always maintained the habit of reading the most cutting-edge research, even if she didn’t understand it.

Because it was just training her sensitivity.

Furthermore, the New Textile School had always aimed to publish more articles in top-tier journals; this was their school’s goal.

Although they’d been working on it for several years, they hadn’t made any progress. They wanted to break into the first-tier discipline, thereby elevating Bonifacius’s status to a level comparable to the top academies of Starfield Sea and Raize Lowlands. This ideal was beautiful, but the progress was appalling. Just

as Georgina was about to close the journal, she saw a familiar name at the top of the list.

“Ah? Generally, the editor-in-chief of Yunze journals puts more important articles first. Even with the school’s full support, trying to make me a young academic star, it’s impossible for my article to appear so early. Locke, you’ve already—

gone this far?”

Georgina clenched her fists.

“I can’t relax either. As a fellow participant from that year, I absolutely can’t let myself fall behind.”

“Although the momentum of the school’s advancement towards becoming a first-level discipline has been somewhat unfavorable, and many wizards are beginning to consider giving up, I cannot allow myself to become despondent.”

The dejection in Georgina’s eyes vanished after reading the article, replaced by a renewed passion for struggle.

“Locke Augustine, and Edgar David, I will definitely not lose to you!”

“In that case, I must successfully help the academy host that new textile science textile competition. If it succeeds, I can obtain further resources, right?” Just then,

there was a knock on Georgina’s door, and Diana walked in excitedly.

“Georgina, I’ve finally become a second-circle wizard! After so many years of struggle, I’ve finally become a second-circle wizard today—”

“Now, it seems I can keep up with you wizarding geniuses again. Ah? What’s this?”

Diana saw an article signed by Locke in the journal in Georgina’s hand, and she stood there, stunned.

“This is—Yunze! His article is already so high up in the rankings?”

A complex expression flashed across Diana’s face.

“I thought I had finally closed the gap between him and Edgar, but who would have thought that the top three in the Yunze Cup back then are now worlds apart? The gap will probably only widen further in the future.”

Diana sighed rather dejectedly.

Georgina said to Diana, “Diana, my friend, please don’t be so discouraged.”

“You’ve already done very well. It’s just that neither Locke nor Edgar are ordinary wizards.”

Diana smiled bitterly. “I don’t know if this counts as a consolation.”

“I understand. I will try my best. I think many wizards feel the same way about me. It’s just that the situation has changed now.”

At the same time, many wizards who were paying attention to Yunze noticed that Locke’s article was now among the top in Yunze, especially those wizards who subscribed to Yunze Wetland, the journal with the most subscriptions.

Inside the Golden Crown Mountain Laboratory, Wizard Zeno held up a Yunze journal, on which was an article by Locke.

He squinted wearily, looking up at the article, and said, “It seems I really need to work harder.”

Meanwhile, the wizard Brandy, who had already finished his training, was teaching at a medium-sized wizarding academy, [Archino Academy]. After seeing Locke’s name appear in the latest issue of the Yunze Journal, which he had saved up to buy, he suddenly smiled with relief.

A first-class wizarding apprentice beside him anxiously awaited Brandy’s critique of his work for the magical plant competition. He had expected a barrage of criticism and was prepared to accept it, but this time, after glancing at his work, Brandy actually smiled.

The student’s mind went blank.

Was this the same Brandy tutor who had come this year—strict in his style, sharp in his words, but able to easily help his students achieve results?

Brandy tutor was actually smiling!

The first-class wizarding apprentice swallowed hard.

Brandy, on the other hand, spoke with unusually gentleness.

“That’s all for now. We’ll discuss it again in the meeting tomorrow. Something rather joyous happened today. This article is by my former rival. I saved up for a whole quarter to buy this Yunze Journal, which is only for second-ring wizards. But today, I saw his name right at the very beginning. Hmph, as his rival, I feel honored. I didn’t lose unjustly back then.”

On the other side of Yunze Wetlands, Droma, a wizard who had already graduated this year but unexpectedly failed the entry exam for the Reptile Garden and had no choice but to join the Magic Nexus City, also saw Locke’s article in the first few pages of this issue of Yunze. She was quite amazed.

“Locke is getting more and more amazing. Brandy and I even tried to scheme against him back then.”

“Looking back now, we were really—”

Droma smiled and scratched her head.

“Forget it, it’s all in the past. Now we each have our own future. That’s good. We all have our own bright future.”

Meanwhile, in the Abyss, the wizard Smith was serving the demon Papalliel in terror, while Papalliel held a copy of the Cloudze Journal.

Sitting before him, the witch of Quinjol, her hands bound by Abyssal chains and unable to use any magical pressure, showed no fear. She couldn’t help but sneer, “Demonic Papalliel, you’ve fallen into the Abyss, and you still have to resort to smuggling to read our wizarding world’s journal?”

Papalliel elegantly sipped a cup of wizard’s tea.

“I love everything about the wizarding world. After all, the habits I developed there over the years haven’t changed even here. Little girl, I’m old and knowledgeable enough to be your ancestor. You should be more polite to me. Understand?” “

And I’ve been quite polite to you lately.”

“You should feel honored,”

the witch sneered. “That’s probably because you’re afraid of our Quinjol alliance. That’s why you don’t dare touch me. I’m still valuable to you. You’re afraid that if you touch me, you won’t be able to clean up the mess. Demon.”

Papalliel smiled elegantly.

“Actually, you can’t use the word ‘fear.’ At the third ring stage, every fight we have is beyond the comprehension of you second ring wizards. In the end, you still have a serious low-ring mentality, actually thinking this was just a simple kidnapping.”

“Little girl.”

“I won’t argue with you. You have much more backbone than my juniors. This good-for-nothing named Smith often can’t help but feel afraid in front of me, and every time he’s afraid, it turns into aura of fear, which I breathe in. He thinks he can hide his fear from me—hmm? This article.” “

Locke Augustine, an article by a Star Ring wizard, is actually ranked at the top of Yunze’s journal this month, appearing between the names of Sun Ring wizards and Moon Ring wizards. What a talent.”

At this moment, Quinnjoll’s witch belatedly realized.

“Talent? Are you saying you’re reading these journals to scout out wizards who can join your evil demon army in the future?”

Papalliel, the Demon God, chuckled elegantly. “You’re quite clever. Indeed. These journals can tell me who has potential. These wizards can then be recruited into the Abyss to become my high-ranking demon servants. If I relied solely on the native demons here, I’m afraid I’d starve to death sooner or later.”

“The demons here are useless. I look down on people like Smith; having him as my servant would be an insult to me. Little girl, I’m quite satisfied with you. You’re sharp-tongued and independent. Would you like to join my army?”

At that moment, Wizard Smith heard a familiar name. He froze, rooted to the spot. Because of the witch Medea’s deception, he was still a first-ring wizard, while his former rival—Lock Augustine of Mount Golden Crown—had become a Star-ring wizard and could even publish his articles on the first few pages of Yunze’s publications? Had

the gap between them become so vast?

For a moment, Wizard Smith felt utterly absurd. Back when he frequented Mount Golden Crown, he had never taken this man seriously, merely considering him a stepping stone, an opponent he was certain of defeating. Now, the stark reality was laid bare before him.

He was the one left far behind.

A surge of intense resentment welled up within Wizard Smith. Was he destined to rot here forever?

At that moment, the temporary palace of the Demon God Papalliel suddenly trembled.

The Demon God Papalliel rose from his seat, and in an instant, his appearance transformed from a refined and amiable old wizard in robes into a terrifying, monstrous creature with a mouth full of sharp teeth and a body resembling a suit of red dragon scale armor.

The demon god’s eyes emitted a light like hellfire.

“Quinjol’s men, you’ve all come this far? You’re going to wage war against me? You’re courting death!”

He roared, the powerful sound waves transforming into hellfire, spreading throughout the entire plane.

The entire plane felt the demon god’s rage.

“Countless times, countless years, countless forms, all are in my hands. Since Quinjol’s wizard legion intends to enter the Abyss to conquer, then I will let you experience what fear truly is.” The demon

god Papalil had already seized the position of the plane’s ruler from the fourth level, the City of Raging Elements. This plane’s ruler had been suppressed by Papalil’s power, imprisoned in the deepest part of the palace in the City of Elemental Madness, unable to emerge. The palace itself had been occupied by Papalil and transformed by his legion into his personal temporary palace.

This was a privilege granted to the seventy-two demon gods by the Abyss.

They could directly strip the rulers of Abyss planes above the 300th level of existence of their authority.

Of course, the lower the dimensional level, the more difficult it is for them to seize authority, but this is only the fourth level, so no one can resist him.

At this moment, in his rage, all the mad elements rushed towards Quinnjoll’s wizard.

A bloody war was about to erupt between the two sides.

In the Cloud Marsh Wetlands, on Golden Crown Mountain, in Locke’s dormitory, the Elliott Academy Principal along the Tianjiang River made a call to Locke. After connecting, he immediately thanked Locke.

“Mr. Augustine, I want to thank you.”

The Elliott Academy Principal, sitting in his wheelchair, was clearly in a good mood, a smile on his face.

“After you left, we fought seven large-scale wars with the White Ice Tower, each one bigger than the last. We won four and lost three,”

Principal Elliott laughed. “The main reason we won was the Great Azure Leaf Dragon Sparrow Platform you developed. The Great Azure Leaf Dragon Sparrow, combined with the Mighty Soybean, is incredibly effective.”

“This combination is extremely effective against the White Ice Tower’s wizards. After you left, we actually won more attacks than we lost against them. If the White Ice Tower hadn’t been able to summon undead using a large number of nameplate magic artifacts, they probably wouldn’t have been able to fight back by now.”

Locke, though somewhat expecting this, still breathed a sigh of relief.

“It’s alright. I’m also a guest instructor at our Tide Grand Wizard Tower. In that case, I have a responsibility to protect it. Besides, according to my latest information, the Tide Grand Wizard Tower is very important to the Tianjiang River region and even the entire Eastern Realm.”

Principal Elliott was clearly unaware of the change in their academy’s status,

as this was related to information about the Eastern Realm, the Star Sea, and even the Southern Realm. He was unaware that the Eastern Boundary was facing a devastating temperature drop caused by the breaching of the Tianhan River’s banks, leading to a series of ecological collapses.

The Dean of Elliott Academy chuckled, “I never imagined that Mr. Augustine’s Hercules Bean would be so effective. All the magic of the White Ice Tower wizards has been completely countered. The Hercules Bean seems to be their perfect nemesis.

However, so far, the battle has only been decided among first-ring wizards; among second-ring wizards, we haven’t yet reached a victor.”

A faint worry appeared on the Dean of Elliott Academy’s face as he sat in his wheelchair.

“Although the probability is low, I’m still worried that their second-ring wizard legion might attack,”

Locke said. “It shouldn’t be that bad.” “

Then it would be a fight to the death. It’s a gamble for the White Ice Tower as well. The wizards of the White Ice Tower value the survival of the White Ice Tower most, which is why they suddenly attacked your Tide Wizarding Tower. They won’t gamble everything and launch a second-ring wizarding war against you after losing the first-ring wizarding war.” “

Moreover, if they go too far, they’ll involve the White Wizarding Association, which will affect their own status within the association. So the White Ice Tower shouldn’t attack you in the short term. Dean, you can consider summoning back some of the wizards and apprentices who scattered earlier.”

Dean Elliott nodded and said, “Yes, some teachers and students have already fled into the mortal realm. The oldest have been gone for many years. The mortal world doesn’t have much magic, and they’re probably almost at their breaking point. So, now is indeed the time to call them back.”

“Wizard Locke, I am very grateful that you left behind the Mighty Soybean and the Great Green Leaf Dragon Sparrow for our Tide Grand Wizarding Tower before you left. In gratitude, I am sending you some Star Ring resources that our Tide Grand Wizarding Tower has accumulated through secure wizard logistics. Mr. Augustine, please remember to check your mail.”

Dean Elliott had a faint smile on his face.

“Oh, right. Besides that, these are all the records we collected during this war.” “

I remember Mr. Augustine would really like to hear about the actual combat performance of the Great Blue Leaf Dragonfly. We’ve already recorded them for you; they’re all excellent combat performances.”

Locke said, “Thank you, Headmaster.”

Headmaster Elliott said, “I should be thanking you. I heard you’re still remotely instructing our Wetland Magic Plant course here. Isn’t that putting too much pressure on you? They’re just our students; I don’t think they deserve Mr. Augustine’s serious instruction.”

Locke looked at Headmaster Elliott strangely and said, “Headmaster, they’re all wizard apprentices. Why differentiate between those who can be seriously taught and those who don’t? There should be no discrimination in teaching. I will teach according to the students’ individual aptitudes. I will do my best for any student; it’s my duty as a mentor. Please don’t bring that up again.”

Headmaster Elliott was taken aback. “Isn’t this just a trivial burden for you guest wizard instructors?

Yet you, Wizard Locke, have taken it so seriously.”

“That was my narrow-mindedness.”

“Then I eagerly await the day when you, Mr. Augustine, will return to our Tianjiang Riverbank and bring your teachings to the students of our academy.”

Locke said, “I will.”

Locke ended the call with the headmaster, then used the Ganoderma lucidum plant to contact the High Elf Queen in Arthas. With these battle records, perhaps the Great Azure Leaf Dragon Sparrow could   finally

persuade Quinnjol to open his door!
