Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 428

Chapter 426: Unfinished Project from the Starry Sea

Witch Sophia said, “So, I have a lot of information to provide you. However, due to the niche communication spell, it can only transmit information between minds, so I can only tell you part of what I know.”

“But I can’t directly look up information about the Star Domain Sea for you. After all, the Four-Leaf Clover Ring can only be used three times.”

A magical light shot out from the center of Witch Sophia’s eyebrows again and entered Locke’s mind.

However, because the amount of information in this message was too large, Locke discovered that this message seemed to be sealed up in the form of some kind of spell model, turning into a ball of light and located in his sea of consciousness.

I cannot read it directly, otherwise the information ball will explode in an instant and directly hurt my soul.

After Witch Sophia went to the Star Sea, she seemed to have made great progress in the magic of the School of Psychic Science. Therefore, these methods made Locke secretly shocked.

He felt that if Witch Sophia was not trying to send him a message but was trying to attack him, then how would he defend against this method? It would be really difficult for him to do so.

“The teacher’s magic is getting more and more powerful. I actually have the illusion that the gap between us is widening.” Locke thought: “But sooner or later, I will catch up with Teacher Sophia on this endless road to truth and become her companion.”

Locke thanked Witch Sophia: “Thank you, teacher.”

Witch Sophia shook her head slightly. “You are my first student. How could I not help you if you are in trouble? Besides, I have something else to tell you.”

“First, if you want to participate in the Yunze Cup, you must consider one thing—the aesthetic taste of the wizards in the Yunze Wetland. The aesthetic tastes of wizards in different wizarding lands are different, and the more advanced the wizarding land, the more serious this tendency is.”

“The only exception is the Star Domain Sea, because the aesthetic of the Star Domain Sea is tolerance.”

“The Star Domain Sea welcomes all wizards, regardless of whether they are black or white, whether they are wizards from the School of Spiritualism or the School of Divinity, regardless of whether you are morally upright or full of evil, the Star Domain Sea welcomes you all.”

“The Star Domain Sea is a place where people can cultivate their own beauty, but it is also, in a sense, an extremely cruel place.”

“The aesthetics of Yunze Wetland… represent the ultimate expression of ‘water civilization.’ My personal view is that the wizards of Yunze Wetland strive to construct a livable ‘poetry’ within this small space through extremely restrained means.”

“They are pursuing the magic of overcoming strength with cleverness.”

“This aesthetic tendency has greatly influenced the wizards of the Yunze Wetlands in their pursuit of magic, as well as the form of their magic. Of course, this is only a collective aesthetic, and it’s not quite accurate when applied to individuals, as every wizard is unique.”

Witch Sophia said, “So, the Yunze Cup actually hides a subtle, weak criterion—whether it aligns with the aesthetic tastes of the wizards of the Yunze Wetlands.”

“So, if you choose a subject like the King Kong Treeman, you’ve already lost half the battle from the start. Wizards of the Yunze Wetlands, at the same level, would definitely not choose the King Kong Treeman to win.”

“Because they’ll think that kind of demonic plant is too rough, uncontrollable, and leaves no room for skill. Similarly, if you choose the Skeleton Elder Tree Man as your subject, you’re not just losing halfway, but you’re doomed from the start.”

“Because the Skeleton Elder Tree is so ugly and disgusting in appearance, and its habits challenge the inherent perception of magical aesthetics among the wizards of the Yunze Wetlands, they will definitely not declare this type of magical plant the winner.”

Witch Sophia said, “Compared to that, the Star Sea is much more tolerant in this regard. Therefore, the White Wizard Association has also criticized the Star Sea for being overly tolerant and unprincipled, with good and bad wizards mixed in, including many extremely evil wizards.”

Locke nodded slightly. This is the benefit of having a master.

Some invisible standards may not even be written in the rules of the game, but they do affect the outcome of the game.

For example, the overall aesthetic tendency of the Yunze Wetland.

“A wizard’s aesthetic taste will indeed affect the upper limit of their future achievements and their choices,” Locke pondered.

Witch Sophia said, “Besides, you told me before that your current permanent defense force field is the Forest Sanctuary, so I want to recommend this project to you even more.”

A piece of information flew out from the center of Witch Sophia’s eyebrows and fell into Locke’s mind. The amount of this information was relatively small, so Locke read it directly.

This is actually a project concept, and there are some basic data.

“What’s this?” Locke was stunned when he saw the project, one exquisite spell model after another. “Teacher, this appears to be data from someone else’s project. It’s well-structured, well-planned, and of very high quality. If we take it to our southeastern region, we’ll almost certainly get a ring fund.”

Witch Sophia nodded and said, “Well, this is a project that my senior and I submitted during our group meeting. Our group is very large, and everyone is a key component, so we don’t have much freedom in what we do. So, although this project is good, my senior and I must follow the general direction, so we ended up switching to a different project.”

Locke was amazed.

Speaking of which, the information that Witch Sophia gave me about this project was already of very high quality. Who knew that they would come up with an even better project later.

I can only say that they are worthy of being the research team of the Three Rings Throne Wizard, they are indeed amazing.

Any eliminated thing at the group meeting, if taken out, would go crazy in other wizards’ fund applications.

Sophia the Witch said: “Although this project is indeed not popular in our research group, I still think it is a good project. It is full of technical ingenuity and is in line with the aesthetic of the wizards of Yunze Wetland.”

“This is a tactical magic plant design, but our research team doesn’t like projects that are more practical and limited to weapons, so we’re not interested in it. That’s why it was left out.”

“The main idea behind this tactical magic plant is to be able to cooperate with the permanent defense field of a first-ring wizard. It can fuse the permanent defense fields of multiple wizards together through the magic plant, or even superimpose them together. By superimposing them, we can form multiple permanent defense fields.”

Locke’s eyes lit up slightly.

This is a project based on a permanent defensive force field, with research at its core. That is to say, this kind of thing will either produce no results, but if it does, they will generally be big results.

Teacher Sophia is right, this kind of thing is absolutely perfect for me.

I have multiple permanent defense force fields, and this project is full of ingenuity, which also suits the aesthetic of the wizards of Yunze Wetland. Don’t the wizards of Yunze Wetland like things in this direction?
Witch Sophia used magic to outline an illusory vine in her hand. The stem of this vine was like an exquisite metal chain, and between each section of the bionic chain, there were two tiny vine leaves.

“This is the Chain Magic Vine. It’s the inspiration for my senior brother and I. It’s a parasitic magical vine among the four major magical vines. Its aerial roots can parasitize us wizards, but what’s special is that it has the special ability to parasitize permanent defensive force fields.”

“So, my senior brother and I came up with the idea of using the finite element cultivation method. We wanted to use it and some other magic vines as a basis to cultivate a large magic vine weapon platform controlled by 3-5 wizards.”

Witch Sophia sighed. “It’s just that we later chose a different project. We’ve only completed a third of this project. We’ve just got a rough outline and basic materials.”

“Locke, if you’re interested, you can finish it and complete it. I can’t guarantee that my current approach is correct. Maybe I’m just wasting time.”

“Although this is a project within our laboratory, it doesn’t require any special equipment. I think you should be able to complete it in the Six Towers. However, it is extremely difficult. After all, it involves a magical plant with a permanent defensive force field, so research and development is very difficult.”

“You have to weigh the trade-offs yourself, Locke.”

“If you believe your current research team is not capable of developing this type of magical plant weapon platform, you can also choose other suitable magical plants from the information I sent you for corresponding development.”

Witch Sophia spoke a lot in one breath. “Okay, Locke, I hope I can help you. The time for the niche communication spell is almost up.”

“Good luck. I’ll wait for you in the Star Sea.”
