Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 424

Chapter 422 War Spells and Shared Data

Next, Barbara Witch, Montgomery, and Tacitus all had different opinions on what topic to choose.

The three of them argued endlessly. Tacitus wanted to take the reliable and conservative route of the tree man, while Witch Barbara believed that they should take a route that others would not think of – such as developing a magic vine platform that can provide healing abilities.

Witch Barbara is both a botanical wizard and a blood essence master of the school of spells. Her botanical direction mainly specializes in magic vines, while her school of spells mainly specializes in the tree demon route.

Witch Barbara is very good at combining the two, using magic vines to strengthen her main research area, the blood power of the tree demon itself.

Therefore, she was able to boldly propose the idea of developing large-scale healing magic vines.

Witch Barbara stretched out her left hand, and a magical vine with leaves of various shapes, like the waxing and waning moon, slowly crawled out from her left hand.

“This is the Moon Vine. It absorbs moonlight and transforms it into natural magic components similar to the First Ring Life School magic: Powerful Restoration. It can also heal my wounds. There are many other magic vines with similar properties. If we develop them well, we can definitely develop a tactical-grade magic plant.”

Witch Barbara said, “The only way to win is to take the enemy by surprise!”

Tacitus frowned. “There’s an old saying that the weirder something is, the sooner it dies. I don’t see why this is so surprising.”

“There are many healing magic vines, but they are all single-soldier magic plants, and the accompanying plant magic is also single-soldier plant magic. They are not suitable for use as war spells.”

“Many war spells require coordinated execution, which is completely different from the logic of individual magic.” Tacitus said, “There is very little information on tactical magic plants related to magic vines. Choosing this would be very risky and would more likely result in our elimination in the first round.”

The first round of the competition will have twenty participants and one will be selected. The participants are all the best first-level breeders and senior breeders from various wizarding lands, so it is not uncommon to be eliminated in the first round.

This is also where Locke feels some of the pressure.

Their team has no competition experience and no senior teaching position.

The difficulty can be imagined.

Witch Barbara retorted, “If we choose the Tree People, we’ll be doomed. The information on the Tree People is indeed complete, but that’s only relative to other wizarding lands. The information on the Six Towers Land is decades out of date. It’s no secret that the Six Towers Land can’t keep up with the outside world.”

What both of them said made sense, but Locke knocked on the table, signaling them to stop being so confrontational.

After Tacido and Barbara apologized to him again and said that they would remain rational and friendly.

Locke took out the information about tactical-grade plants in the southeast corner that his teacher Harun Vera had shared with him from his star ring.

I had someone transcribe and copy this information before, which cost me five hundred magic stones.

Locke distributed the information to everyone. “Don’t worry about the information for now. I have sources outside of the Six Towers.”

Wizard Tacitus picked up the information and his eyes lit up. “Mr. Locke, you are truly capable. With this information on tree people, we can keep up with the level of the major wizarding lands.”

“This information is incredibly advanced. My goodness, have the major wizarding lands studied treants so thoroughly in the past fifty years? Look, there are two hundred families of treants classified alone, divided into gymnosperm treants and angiosperm treants. There are at least ninety families of first-level treants that we can study.”

Locke said briefly: “Yes, it’s from the southeast corner.”

“There is a forbidden forest in the southeast corner, so botany and breeding are well developed.”

“If you want any specific information, you can ask me for it and I will find a way to get it for you.”

“I have my own sect in the southeastern region, and I can get a lot of information. My sect’s network of connections will help us.” Locke added, “After knowing that I would participate in the Yunze Cup, my sect chose to fully support me.”

The three official wizards cast envious glances at Locke.

Because in the land of the Six Towers, they simply don’t have such an opportunity to be accepted by the master, enter the relationship network of a school clique, and enjoy all the benefits of that relationship network.

The way out for most of them is to become ghostwriters, be exploited for their entire lives, and never be able to make a name for themselves. They have no other choice but to give up and lie down.

Or there are indeed a few wizards who are particularly lucky and will be valued by the witches in the family and marry into their family.

However, this second path is generally only available to wizards from outside wizard lands.

Because a strict bloodline hierarchy system has been implemented in the land of the Six Towers since a long time ago, it is basically impossible to choose a civilian wizard to marry into the family within the land of the Six Towers. Doing so will break the deep-rooted family hierarchy concept within the Six Towers.

That is where the main ideology of the Land of Six Pagodas lies.

Witch Barbara looked at the information with envy. “It’s great to have fellow disciples. Unlike the common wizards in our Six Towers, who always fight alone and are bullied.”

“Unless… you join the mutual aid groups in the Spiral Basin…”

Tacitus looked at her doubtfully. He did not understand the hidden secrets in this, and the three people present who knew about it did not want to explain it actively because it was sensitive content, so they all remained silent.

Witch Barbara and Montgomery Paul looked at each other, and both of them could see from each other’s eyes that they were almost on the path of becoming dark wizards.

Witch Barbara said, “Well, Boss Locke, I’d like to apply to you for information on magic vines. I need information on both single and tactical magic plants. Is that okay? I can pay with magic stones… but I don’t have much savings, so…”

Locke shook his head slightly. “No, this information was shared with me free of charge by my master. We’re a research team now, and we’re all in the same boat, so this information can be shared without charging any extra money. Barbara, I’ll get it for you, but it’ll take a while.”

Barbara was stunned for a moment, then expressed her envy again. “That’s great! It turns out that in other wizarding lands, looking up information doesn’t cost money. Unlike us, even if we’re in the same research group, we still have to pay to look up information.”

“Only family wizards have high-level access rights to the library. They block the information and force us to work for them. We use our labor to exchange for some pitiful information from them.”

Barbara looked puzzled. “I once went without sleep for six months working on a project for that bastard Eric Plutarch, and that earned me one day of Level 3 access to the White Dragon Library.”

Witch Barbara pointed at her own eyes and said, “During that time, I had dark circles under my eyes every day. Half of my face was almost covered with dark circles.”

“But it’s really great now. I didn’t expect that joining your research group would have the added benefit of being able to freely access the information I need.”

Witch Barbara said, “Well… I don’t even need to look it up. I just need to ask you for the relevant information.”

The three first-ring wizards were also very interested in this.
