Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 373

Chapter 371: Conditions for Becoming a Second Ring Wizard

Alicia immediately thought of Locke, who was not a wizard from the Six Towers, so naturally he had no opinion on family origin or status.

Locke pressed his palm on the red crystal matrix used by official wizards, and suddenly a line of numbers 3450 appeared on the red crystal matrix.

This means that this tube of Mammon potion increased his mana by 50 points, which is equivalent to 50 days and nights of meditation.

“At this rate, it will take me at least 51 days, and at most two to three months, to liquefy my mental power.” A thought flashed in Locke’s eyes. He hadn’t expected to find the formula for Mammon’s Powder in the free library on the airship while on board.

That’s fine.

He was also able to work with Alicia to create a Mammon Powder potion with almost no side effects, successfully and safely using a potion that originally required huge side effects and that almost no wizards dared to take.

Locke said to Alicia, “The side effects of the Mammon Powder potion we worked on together are already very low, although your current physical strength is still not enough. But I think that as long as you undergo a blood transformation to enhance your physical fitness, your physical strength will be able to use the Mammon Powder potion.”

“If you also use the Mammon’s Powder Potion, your current mana is 1005, but if you continue to use the Mammon’s Powder Potion every day, it will be enough to turn your spiritual power into energy within four months.”

“Then, you can even use Mammon’s Powder Potion all the way and become a Liquefaction Wizard. I estimate that with your talent, if you use Mammon’s Powder Potion every day, you will become a Liquefaction Wizard within two years.”

Alicia frowned. “I also use Mammon’s Powder potion? But…”

Locke said, “Well. You’re a wizard specializing in bloodline transformation at the School of Conjuration. It shouldn’t be difficult for you to obtain some blood that can strengthen your body, right? Especially since you have the resources of the Plutarch family and the entire Six Towers. You’ll soon have enough physical strength to take the Mammon Powder potion.”

Alicia blushed slightly and whispered, “Of course, that’s possible. This is not a problem at all. If I just want to strengthen my physique, then I can use the blood of a unicorn to strengthen my body. A unicorn is a first-ring magical creature with a strong body.”

“But the question is, is it too risky to take the Mammon Powder Potion? This set of potions is just a temporary set of potions made by the two of us in the airship’s laboratory.”

Alicia said, “Should we let the potion complete three phases of experiments, find more wizards, and even let some first-ring wizards try it, and then we can use it.”

“This will be safer and there will be no side effects.”

Locke looked at Alicia in surprise. “If we do what you say, fifty years will almost be gone. Not to mention the resources consumed, we also have to reduce the potion to a level that can be used by ordinary first-ring wizards, or first-ring wizards of the School of Charms…”

“This is really too long to wait. If you want to become a second-ring wizard, or even a higher-ring wizard, you can’t be so cautious at every step, missing opportunities and losing your courage.”

Locke said, “I don’t know what it’s like in the land of the Six Towers. In our southeastern region, my teacher once told me that no official wizard is free of side effects.”

“What’s more, there are two more points. First, I’ve already taken it and it’s proven to be quite effective. Second, the experiments on this potion have been repeatedly verified by the two of us, and there are absolutely no problems.”

Locke said, “Anyway, you’ve memorized the steps for preparing the Mammon Powder potion that we both improved. It’s up to you to choose. Oh, and this is your share, because we both refined it together.”

He placed the remaining one person’s portion of Mammon Powder potion on the table.

Locke chose not to interfere too much.

Because this is just her personal choice. If Locke didn’t think that Alicia’s talent in potions was really good and that he would benefit a lot from making potions with her, Locke wouldn’t even say a few words of reminder.

Alicia shuddered and looked at Locke in surprise. “A second-ring wizard?”

“There is no second-ring wizard in our entire Six Towers Land. Locke, is your goal to become a second-ring wizard?”

“For a first-ring wizard, every step from ordinary to gaseous, to liquefied, and finally to crystallized requires tremendous effort. For a first-ring wizard, becoming a liquefied wizard in this lifetime is extremely difficult, but reaching the crystallized stage is already considered a small achievement.”

“As for the second ring, it requires a second race limit breakthrough.”

“In our entire Six Towers Land, not a single second-ring wizard has been born in the past one hundred years.”

Alicia frowned and said, “Even my grandfather, the Great Wizard Sura, didn’t become a second-ring wizard.”

“To become a second-ring wizard, one needs… a lot of things.”

“Talent, resources, opportunities, and knowledge of magic—all of these are indispensable.”

“It even requires some special resources—resources that can only be found in the core of a medium-sized world.”

Locke looked at Alicia in surprise.

From Alicia’s words, he finally understood why the wizards who were part of the Dark Wizard Alliance in the southeast corner were so excited when they heard that they were going to jointly develop a medium-sized world. These selfish dark wizards could actually unite and collectively declare war on Lilith’s Cottage.

So this was part of the reason?
To become a second-ring wizard, a necessary resource had to be obtained from a world core of medium or larger size.

But the core of the world is the most central location in the world. Even the creatures of this world rarely have the qualifications to enter.

This means that if a first-ring wizard wants to become a second-ring wizard, he must either conquer a medium-sized or larger world by himself, or join others in their actions against that world.

Or obtain this resource from other places.

But no matter what, this leads to the fact that the wizarding world’s attack on other dimensions is necessary.

Locke fell into deep thought. It seemed that some wizarding lands did not have second-ring wizards, probably because they had never conquered a plane of medium size or above.

So, where can I find a way to obtain this kind of resource? !

It seems that this kind of resource is very difficult to obtain through trading. Perhaps it is necessary to go to a more advanced wizarding land to easily obtain this special resource.

Alicia looked at Locke and sighed. “I was born in the Land of the Six Towers. I’ve always believed that one’s origins determine everything about a person. Wizards from noble families are naturally nobler than common wizards.”

“But on this airship, when that abominable dark wizard slaughtered my family members and humiliated me, I suddenly realized that in the face of power, family background and status are of no use at all.”

“I’m confused. Why could that dark wizard ignore my family and my identity and attack me?”

Alicia gritted her teeth and said, “To be honest, the reason I want to make potions with you and stay with you is not just because I want to repay you for saving my life. There is another very important reason, and that is the way you look at me.”

“The way you look at me doesn’t have the flattery, fawning, or awe that other wizards have. The way you look at me makes me feel that you treat me as an equal.”

“This feeling… is similar to the way that dark wizard looked at me. I’m not saying you are a dark wizard, it’s just a feeling. You are different from that dark wizard. He regards me as an enemy, but you regard me as a friend.”

Alicia whispered, “I want to stay by your side because I want to figure out what is confusing me.”

“Perhaps, the values of the Six Towers Land are indeed problematic. I am a famous wizard from the Six Towers Land, but because my grandfather, the Great Wizard Sura, failed to break through to the Second Ring, I dare not even think about the goal of becoming a Second Ring Wizard.”

“You are just a common wizard, you come from an ordinary background, but I see in your eyes the desire to pursue the second ring, or even something higher…”

Alicia’s eyes changed. “Perhaps, I should have realized that it was never my family that brought me glory.”

“Anyone can pursue the truth. Everyone is equal before the truth. What makes me outstanding is myself. If I truly want to inherit the Plutarch family… my current level of power is completely insufficient.”

Alicia hesitated for a moment, but made up her mind and picked up the Mammon Powder Potion. “My friend, Locke, you are right. This potion was improved by both of us. I should trust my own work, your work. I will take this potion and become a liquefied wizard as soon as possible.”

“Only by becoming a liquefied wizard will I be qualified to take revenge on those dark wizards.”

“Locke, thank you, my only friend so far.”

Alicia picked up the Mammon Powder potion, nodded to Locke, then turned and left the simple laboratory.
