Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 394

Chapter 392 Tracking the Lost Soul

Locke left the elemental pool, and immediately the hidden passage at the bottom of the elemental pool opened. A large amount of magic energy pool water flowed away quickly and returned to the elemental fission well of the White Dragon Tower.

Locke changed into a new white wizard robe, tidied his clothes and hair a little, then took out a red crystal matrix from the astral ring and tested his current magic power.

Two numbers popped up on the red crystal matrix. “6000, 7000.”

“My mana has reached 6000, but the Abyssal Energy is still only equivalent to 1000 Magic Pressure. Very good, this shows that I have controlled the ratio between Abyssal Energy and my normal Magic Pressure very well.”

Locke pondered.

After a wizard reaches the first liquefied stage, the Mammon Powder potion will no longer be effective.

Therefore, Locke needs to find new potions to speed up the process of materializing his magic power.

Fortunately, he could now call upon the energy of the elemental pool inside the White Dragon Tower at any time. Even without the help of potions, his mana would increase at a fast rate through daily meditation.

“I am currently twenty-one years old. As long as I reach the liquefaction stage before I turn fifty, I can formally submit my resume to the Institute of True Knowledge. Now I have one more option.” Locke thought.

“Based on my current situation, it will take me about eight years to materialize my liquid mana into crystalline mana.”

This speed is already very fast, faster than the promotion speed of ordinary elemental children.

After all, a formal wizard has a long lifespan, and if it only takes ten years to advance, it means that not much time has been used.

Locke said, “If I use this elemental pool, I am confident that I can become a first-ring wizard at the crystallization stage within six years.”

“But if we can get better resources, we might be able to speed up this process.”

“Anyway, I should first apply to the top academies of true knowledge in the nearby wizarding lands. See if there will be any reply.” Locke pondered. It has been fifteen months since he became a formal wizard and came to the land of six towers.

A lot of things have happened in the past year or so.

Locke recalled his first teacher, Witch Sophia.

More than two years ago, she left the southeast corner and parted ways with me. I don’t know how she is doing now.

Locke noticed that the letter Alicia sent him in the Star Ring had some magical power, and he immediately took out the half letter from the ring.

It only read: Dear Locke, I have found a way to get royal jelly honeydew without attracting anyone’s attention, and let my grandfather take it. Please meet in my grandfather’s bedroom at 1:00 a.m. tonight.

Locke frowned, thought for a moment, and wrote on the half-broken letter paper – OK.

As a potion master hired to treat the great wizard Sura, it is indeed his job to investigate the whereabouts of the great wizard Sura’s soul that mysteriously disappeared when he was in a coma.

After all, the Centaur Wizard and the Potions Master Witch have been busy there for more than a month, and I have only been working on my own project for the past month, so I really have to contribute.

Locke first returned to his residence in the White Dragon Tower.

…

At one o’clock in the morning, Locke, relying on the special authority of the White Dragon Badge in his hand, quietly bypassed everyone and came to the first floor of the residence of the great wizard Sura, 30km above the White Dragon Tower.

As soon as Locke walked out of the suspended staircase, the white dragon emblem on his wizard robe flashed a bright light, and the maze was automatically released. The guard who was supposed to appear in front of the maze was also transferred away by Alicia.

Locke walked through the maze with an unchanged expression.

The tables and potion materials in the hall on the first floor had been moved away. Locke walked through the hall and up the stairs to the second floor.

Locke quickly arrived at the bedroom of the great wizard Sura on the second floor. At the same time, Alicia, who had changed into a simple white wizard robe, had already been waiting beside the bed of the great wizard Sura, looking at the great wizard Sura lying on the bed with a worried look.

After realizing that Locke had come up, Alicia immediately turned around and looked at Locke: “Locke, now that you’re here, we can start right away.”

“I used the excuse that I wanted to be alone with my grandfather to buy us half a night, but we have to hurry, otherwise they will all come back. And we don’t know if there is an undercover agent among the people around my grandfather, who the undercover agent is, and who sent him.”

Locke glanced at Alicia in surprise, looking at her simple wizard robe without a single gemstone, and said, “Alicia, you have grown up.”

Alicia pursed her lips and smiled, “Facing this world that eats people on your own always makes you grow faster. Without the protection of adults, I realized how hard it is to have those peaceful days.”

Alicia took out a bee from the astral ring. The bee’s wings were shining green, and there was some crystalline substance on the bee’s head.

Like a crystalline mask.

This is a typical feature of the crystal bee. The khaki mask on its face is actually a composite type of earth element particle condensation that can provide a certain degree of defense.

As Alicia released the crystal bee, it first circled in the surrounding air, as if looking for a place to hide.

But soon, the crystal bee seemed to have suddenly smelled something that was extremely attractive to it, and suddenly changed its flight trajectory and flew towards the sleeping great wizard Sura.

Soon, the crystal bee changed direction and headed towards the third floor.

Alicia and Locke immediately followed and used their authority to open the maze on the third-floor corridor to prevent the crystal bees from being unable to pass through the maze and reach the place where the soul of the great wizard Sura was.

As soon as he stepped onto the third floor, Locke was stunned, because the walls of the third floor hall were not filled with treasures like the first and second floors, but were bare.

Locke thought for a moment and understood that the great wizard Sura placed all the treasures on the first and second floors, because only the first and second floors were used to entertain outsiders, and the third floor and above were originally his own private space.

For hundreds of years, no wizard has ever been invited.

Therefore, it is probably for this reason that the great wizard Sura believes that there is no need to place those treasures above the third floor.

The crystal bee shuttled back and forth in the corridor, stopping and starting, and stopped for a moment in all the rooms on both sides of the corridor, as if confirming something.

Alicia whispered, “Could it be that my grandfather’s spirit is here?”

“But why did Grandfather’s soul leave his body and come here? Grandfather is not a wizard who studies ghosts, and it would be risky for him to leave his body.”

The crystal bee landed on the door of a room.

Alicia waved her hand and the door opened automatically.

The crystal bee immediately flew in impatiently. The room behind the door was empty and there was nothing inside. The crystal bee immediately flew to a high altitude position in the center of the room impatiently. As a result, the next moment, the crystal bee was cut in half by an invisible sharp blade and died instantly.

Alicia was stunned for a moment. “Defensive magic circle? How could there be a magic trap in such an empty room?”

Locke frowned and observed carefully. At the same time, he turned his left hand over with his palm facing up, and a shadow eye grass appeared in his palm. After Locke used the botanical magic [Eye of Grass] spell model, it turned into a residual shadow, passing through the shadow in the corner of the wall of the empty room in front, and then appeared in the shadow in the deepest corner of the wall. At the same time, the eye grass rolled upwards, like rolling its eyeballs.

Then, Locke closed his left eye, and his left eye’s vision connected with the eye grass, so he could see the world that the eye grass saw.

The Eye of Grass spell model has a certain ability to break invisibility spells.

“Hmm? There’s an invisibility circle in this room.” Locke said, “It seems to be a [Invisibility Circle] spell from the Protection School.”

“I can’t destroy it. If I do, and it becomes visible, it will immediately trigger a chain reaction of magic circles, activating all the magic traps in this room.”

Locke thought for a moment and put his hand on Alicia’s shoulder. The spell model of [Eye of Grass] can strengthen the connection between the eye grass and himself, and give the eye grass the ability to see through invisible things, and also give Locke the ability to share vision.

Suddenly, when Locke’s body touched Alicia, her left eye was connected with the Shadow Eye Grass, and she saw the hidden layers of magic arrays in the empty room.

Alicia was quite surprised. “Locke, this eye-grass you developed is truly amazing. Ordinary reconnaissance plants wouldn’t be able to so easily penetrate this First Ring Protection School spell.”

“It’s that magical plant that enhances the power of your Eye of Plants spell.”

“No, now is not the time to talk about this. Locke, I recognize these magic circles. One of them is an invisibility circle, but the main circle is a sealing circle, and it can be opened directly with the White Dragon Badge.”

Alicia raised the badge in her hand, and immediately the magic badge emitted a ray of light, shining into the air. Then, a white dragon pattern representing the mysterious family symbol of the Plutarch family appeared in mid-air, and then the magic circle was automatically lifted.

A space vortex appeared in the empty room.

Locke looked at the spatial vortex, still wondering, “What is that? A weapon? Equipment? An entrance?”

Alicia froze in her tracks, but she recognized it. “Right, Locke, you’ve never left the Material Plane through a dimensional portal and entered another plane, right?”

“Locke, that’s a dimensional door leading to other dimensions.”
