Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 416

Chapter 414 Diamond Succulent and the Magic of the Same Breed

Diamond Succulent, a level 8 synthetic item, was created by Locke over a month using the half-researched apprentice-level gem magic plants in Louis’s underground research institute, plus some specific fine-tuning by himself and others.

The finite element cultivation method is a cultivation method that requires a large amount of data to produce results.

In other words, this cultivation method can, in essence, accelerate progress and improve the quality of results by investing in data and resources.

The Six Towers Land happens to have a large number of such zombie projects with a large amount of residual data. By using these zombie projects, Locke can come from behind and get ahead, and produce results faster than others.

Locke picked up the diamond succulent on the table and saw that under the infusion of light element particles, the bubbles in the transparent leaves of the diamond petals began to condense magical light.

Under the effect of Locke’s universal botanical spell model, “Every Tree and Grass Sees Enemies,” the diamond succulent quickly completed the elemental infusion in a local area within itself, and the diamond succulent released a brilliant light.

Keep it in mind but don’t express it.

Locke only needs to use the simplest spell model, and the diamond in Locke’s hand will explode.

Under the horrified eyes of the middle-aged wizard Takla, Locke only paused for a moment, and a spell model appeared above the diamond succulent, completely activating the diamond succulent, and then a ball of light suddenly appeared.

The dazzling light even blinded the wizard Takla. Just when he subconsciously covered his eyes with his left hand and was about to activate the defensive force field, he found that Locke used the technique of compressing the permanent defensive force field, using the life force field barrier to form a cube, compressing the light explosion inside.

The emerald green crystal wall system cube was severely deformed in an instant, almost tearing apart Locke’s compressed life force field.

“The power of a diamond succulent is indeed quite strong, even if it is driven by apprentice-level botanical magic.” Locke released his permanent defensive force field, and a succulent with two petals floated in the air, almost unscathed.

Unlike the Crystal Palm Lotus, the Diamond Succulent is a reusable magic plant and not a consumable. After it infuses its own bubbles with self-elements and produces a light explosion, those light element particles will burst out, but as the Diamond Succulent has very good light permeability, the damage it suffers is limited.

To a certain extent, as long as the diamond succulent is not used multiple times in a short period of time, the little damage it suffers can be repaired by itself by planting it in the soil and waiting for one night.

It is a plant after all.

Locke was quite satisfied with the power of the diamond succulent. Although it could not instantly blow up his permanent defense field, he just needed to use a few more of them.

Using diamond succulents hardly consumes any of your mana. If you carry five or six of them with you, you can use them to constantly interfere with your opponent when fighting.

Wizard Takla breathed a sigh of relief. He had just thought that Locke was going to destroy the office. Although repairing such an office was not a big deal for a wizard, the two of them were still in the office after all.

He was really scared just now.

Wizard Takla said to Locke, “Director, your technique of compressing the permanent defense force field is truly masterful. Many First Ring wizards who have lived for hundreds of years cannot operate their permanent defense force fields as flexibly as you do.”

Locke nodded slightly. Because he had been taking the Eye Demon series of potions continuously and under the influence of the abyss energy, he had a very high perception and magic control ability, so he would have an advantage in the skills of permanent defensive force field.

In addition, he had Level 2 authority in the White Dragon Tower Library, allowing him to freely access a large amount of information. Therefore, it was only natural for him to master the compression technique of the permanent defense force field.

Locke thought about it for a while, and an idea came to his mind. He recited the spell, slightly modified the spell model of [Mayfly Fireworks], and then applied it to the diamond succulent. Suddenly, the diamond succulent floated up and hovered in the air.

“Using the Mayfly Fireworks, I can surround myself with Diamond Succulents, and during battle, I can deal continuous damage to the enemy.”

“If one isn’t enough, I can use a few more. The advantage of Diamond Succulents is that they consume very little mana and energy, so it’s possible to use more than six Diamond Succulents continuously in battle.”

Locke thought quickly.

In fact, he could develop a botanical magic specifically based on the diamond succulent to utilize its characteristics.

However, after seeing the level of the botanical wizards in the Six Towers, Locke no longer had much hope for this.

“Using the Mayfly Firework Cannon, combined with the information I previously consulted in the White Dragon Tower Library, I can piece together a one-ring version of the Mayfly Firework Cannon with a little patchwork. That should be possible.”

Locke pondered, “The White Dragon Tower has a good botanical magic [One Breath, One Branch], which can completely connect the Qi of two magical plants together, sharing magical energy. Originally, this was not very useful, and its application was limited.”

“But if I learn that magic, I can detonate other Diamond Succulents at the same moment as one, and connect the resulting light explosions together to form a continuous explosion. I can stack the energy of the light explosions together and even break through the permanent defense field of wizards of the same level in a short time. That becomes possible.”

“The characteristics of a permanent defense field are strong defense, low energy consumption, and long-term maintenance. Even if it is broken, it can be quickly restored. However, as long as it can be broken in a short period of time, it can damage the opponent’s main body under the permanent defense field.”

When Wizard Takla heard Locke say this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The diamond succulent was a magical plant created entirely under Locke’s leadership. Locke’s ability in breeding had already deeply impressed the wizard Takla.

Even Wizard Takla thought that he was lucky to be able to work in the research institute in the Land of Six Towers where Locke was the director.

He no longer had to deal with the interference and mischief of those foolish family wizards.

Wizard Takla said to Locke, “Director, your idea is very good. If possible, I would also like to help you complete the matching spell for the Diamond Succulent.”

Locke looked at the wizard Takla. The wizard Takla was already three hundred years old this year, but he was just an ordinary first-ring wizard. It was not because he lacked talent, but because he lacked resources in the land of six towers.

Wizard Takla had decent talent in breeding and botany, but he had missed too many opportunities. When he was young and adventurous, he did not choose to leave the Land of the Six Towers, but instead worked as a small assistant teacher in the White Dragon Magic Gem University controlled by the Plutarch family.

A waste of his talent.

And talent expires.

Locke, lacking a qualified wizard to discuss botany with, nodded. “Okay. I’ll have someone retrieve the information on the spell [One Breed, One Branch] from the library.”

“We can study it together. By the way, I’ll write the article about Diamond Succulent myself,” Locke said. “When I’m done, will you put your name on the second article?”

Wizard Takla had no objection. “Of course, Director. You can even put me in the third or fourth position.”

In essence, this magical plant was actually cultivated by Locke alone, but Locke used the preliminary research data and manpower of their research institute.

If it weren’t for Locke, this diamond magic plant would never have appeared.

Their Louis Underground Institute is still in an awkward situation: it has not been closed down, but its funds have been transferred away by Eric Plutarch.

Moreover, it was only after more than a month of cooperation with Locke that Wizard Takla discovered that his original idea was indeed problematic.

Even if Eric had not withdrawn the funds from their institute, it would probably take another fifty years for him to produce any results according to his original idea.

Now it seems that Eric withdrew the funds of his institute, and his institute was not wronged. At that time, there was indeed little hope and the direction was wrong.

Locke had another conversation with Wizard Takla, and after he left, he took a bottle of improved version of the Holy Spring Nectar potion and other potions and went to the Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion.

“The Holy Spring Nectar project is complete. I’m very satisfied with the results of this bottle of Holy Spring Nectar. It’s a perfect recovery potion.” Locke pondered on the way. “I don’t have high hopes for the Botanical Magic Improvement Project anymore. As long as there are results that I can use for myself, that’s all I need.”

“On the contrary, the Diamond Succulent project that I’m collaborating with Takla still has a lot of room for development. If my idea of combining the Same Breed with Mayfly Fireworks and multiple Diamond Succulents can be realized, then this Magic Plant product can also participate in some competitions.”

Locke thought about whether he could use Diamond Succulent to participate in the Yunze Cup.

“Of course I can, but the problem is that Diamond Succulents are still not enough. I also need better Magic Plants. Otherwise, I might be eliminated in the first round of the main competition.” Locke recalled the information he had read about the Yunze Cup. First of all, the schools on the Yunze Wetland side were the School of Life, the School of Oceanography, and the School of Shaping. These three schools were relatively strong.

The School of Life Studies is relatively strong in the sub-direction of botany, and it is also a smaller category within botany, the Yunhu series of magical plants.

In addition, there are wizards from the ocean school and weather masters whose traditions are well developed there and they are very powerful.

Therefore, his Diamond Succulent is not good enough, and its magical plant characteristics should not be particularly popular among the wizards in Yunze Wetland.

The purpose of the entry is to win. In order to win, you cannot simply consider the magical plant characteristics of the magic plant work, but also consider the local preference for magical plants and the enemy’s adaptability to light magic.

The Mechanians are mechanical synthetic beings. To be honest, if you use light magic that leans towards the school of evocation… the damage you can do to them is indeed limited.

“There are still a large number of zombie projects in the Six Towers. I can search not only within the Plutarch family, but also throughout the Six Towers.” Locke pondered. “With those half-finished, high-quality zombie projects, I can obtain a large amount of data in a short period of time, making up for the Six Towers’ backward breeding technology and its disadvantage compared to the contestants from other wizarding lands.”
