Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 494

Chapter 492 Harvest Field and Withering Field

The land of six towers, the White Dragon Tower, 10km away from the residence.

Locke and Harun Vera were having a voice conversation using the gray mist slate, and Harun Vera looked thoughtful.

“I’ve seen your Yunze Cup competition records. I was truly amazed by your development of that Hydra plant. I only later learned that you’d mastered the Forest Sanctuary magic of our Lilith Cottage. That was the painstaking work of the previous dean.”

“So that’s how it is. Dean Levis has basically completed the development of the Forest Sanctuary? He really has bad luck. It turns out that he was very close to completing the magic of the Forest Sanctuary. It’s a pity that there was no Hive Mind Potion in his time.”

Harlan Vera’s image within the gray misty slate looked extremely regretful. He spread his hands and said, “By the way, as you mentioned, I recommended defensive magic to you. If you can stack force fields, and you now have a life force field…”

“As you said, your most proficient defensive magic is Life Field. I suggest you learn two more botanical defensive magics—Harvest Field and Withering Field.”

Locke looked puzzled. “Teacher Harlan, why haven’t I heard of these two spells before?”

Harlan Vera said, “Oh, that’s what you’re talking about.”

“Harvest Field and Withering Field aren’t traditional permanent defensive magic, so botany wizards rarely learn them and don’t know much about them. After all, they aren’t commonly used defensive magic.”

Harlan Vera said, “But these three spells are the masterpieces of our Lilith Cottage’s first headmaster, Headmaster Mist. The Harvest Field is a red force field that can rapidly mature plants and magical plants, greatly increasing their number in a short period of time. It requires the use of thorn seeds. Although it is powerful, as a permanent defensive force field, it requires the use of matching seeds, so few wizards would choose this magic.”

“The Withering Field forms an icy ring around the body. It’s a force field that signals the withering of all things, the dormancy of winter. Anyone who approaches will be affected by the winter withering. However, this also has its drawbacks. Even the wizard himself will be partially affected by the Withering Force.”

Locke understood that these two botanical defensive magics had great flaws, so no wizard would choose to use them.

Harlan Vera said: “But these two force fields, combined with the life force field, can become the [natural force field].”

“This is a combination spell, a classic combination spell of Madam Mist. The three force fields of life force field, harvest force field, and withering force field are combined together to use the [Force of Mist], also known as the [Natural Force Field].”

Harlan Vera leaned back in his chair and said, “Of course, this is just an opinion.”

“Because no one other than Mrs. Mist can use the natural force field. The reason is that, in order to form a natural force field, one needs to use three permanent defense force fields at the same time and stack these three force fields.”

Locke’s expression changed slightly.

Harlan Vera nodded and said, “You’re very perceptive and have grasped the key point. A large part of the reason Lilith’s cabin originally researched the ability to switch permanent defense fields was to recreate the power of Mist.”

“Mrs. Mist is a character from a long, long time ago, so long ago that some wizards even suspect she is just a fictional character in a book created by Lilith’s cabin.”

Locke said, “So, Mr. Harlan, how did Lilith’s cabin confirm that Mrs. Mister was real? Wait, is Mister Forest Road protected by a natural force field?”

Harlan Vera nodded and said, “Yes. The entrance to the Forbidden Forest Wizarding Secret Realm at Lilith’s Cottage, the Mystery Forest Road, is protected by a natural force field. You have also been protected by this natural force field before. It is a kind of protective force that moistens everything silently, but it is only a range of protection, not for you alone. Moreover, for the sake of the trial, the power of Myster will not completely protect you and leave you completely unharmed.”

“But if you can be fully protected by Mist’s power, then I really can’t imagine who else can hurt you at the first ring stage.”

Harlan Vera said, “Even if the former dean’s research succeeds, it would be difficult for the original Forest Sanctuary to unleash the power of Mist. But if your Hydra is added, that might not be the case.”

“So, I think this is just a coincidence, but Locke, you are indeed the wizard in the history of Lilith’s Hut who is closest to being able to use the power of Mist.”

“Since you’ve come to ask me, I’ll share this secret with you. The spellbooks for the Harvest Field and the Withering Field are free of charge if you need them. After all, verifying the existence of Mist’s power and the truth of the legend is what we at Lilith’s Cottage would like to see.”

Locke nodded slightly. “Okay, teacher, then I’m willing to give it a try.”

Harlan Vera smiled. “The Harvest Field is suitable for use with the Golden Apple Tree. The Aiden Twig you purchased during your apprenticeship is a subspecies of the Golden Apple Tree.”

“Withering force field, suitable for using [Blue Ginkgo Tree].”

“Besides that, I can recommend two Botanical Magic combinations. One is the [Oak Magic Armor] you’ve already learned. If you combine it with the Botanical Magic [Oak Belt] and the Botanical Magic [Oak Crown], it will become the [Life Rejuvenation Armor]!”

“This is also a combination magic of Ms. Mist.”

Harun Vera said: “Oak Magic Armor, Oak Belt and Oak Crown are all suitable for using Winter and Summer Giant Oak or White Oak.”

Locke nodded slightly, and at the same time guessed that the first headmistress of Lilith’s Cottage, Mrs. Mist, might have mastered the magic of using multiple defensive force fields at the same time, so she had so many permanent defensive force fields that needed to be combined together to be used.

Apparently, some wizards believe that Lilith’s Hut is a real thing, while others believe that it is a myth.

They urgently need to find someone to prove whether this is a legend or a real existence.

And now, I am the person most likely to do it.

Locke nodded and said, “I see. What is the effect of Life Reload, Mr. Harlan?”

Harlan Vera said helplessly, “Life Regeneration is different from the natural force field. This one truly doesn’t exist. Legend has it that when Lilith’s cabin is facing extinction, the power of Life Regeneration will appear to protect it. But that requires a catastrophic disaster and an extinction-level blow.”

“So far, we haven’t seen anything like it.”

Locke said, “Well, thank you, Mr. Harlan, for your recommendation. How about you give me those magic spells? I currently have 870,000 in savings, which should be enough to buy these magic plants.”

I used to have a savings of 160,000. Later, because the Yunze Cup had passed a year ago, I had a lot of project funds to spend, so I basically had no living expenses. So apart from buying some cultivation materials at my own expense, I didn’t have too much extra expenses. As a result, I saved a total of 870,000 magic stones.

This amount of money should be enough to purchase a large number of first-ring magic plants, transplant the magic plants in one’s own forest sanctuary, and expand the total number of biological species in the forest.

At present, under his careful care, his forest sanctuary has accelerated its growth, roughly from the first stage to the second stage. Next, Locke will transplant a large number of magic plants to make his forest enter the third stage.

Let the forest fully reach adulthood and greatly expand its own forest sanctuary.

That is the point that the forest will reach after a hundred years.

But that would require huge resources.

Locke accepted the information Harlan Vera passed on through the gray mist slate and expressed his gratitude, “Thank you, teacher.”

Harlan Vera smiled and said, “I’m also curious. Is the power of Mist just a legend, or is it just something we made up? Or did such a dean really exist in history, or is it just that we exaggerated the records?”

“In short, you are the wizard who has come closest to success in our Lilith Hut in the past hundred years.”

“So, I should be the one thanking you!”
