Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 541
Chapter 538 Obtaining the First Student
Half a month later, in Locke’s dormitory.
Locke’s magic pressure was 9030 at this time. He used the compression method, coupled with the unique environment of Golden Crown Mountain and the backflow of the natural force plane, so he was still able to maintain a strong upward momentum of increasing his magic power by 1 point every day in the first ring crystallization stage.
At this time, Locke was in the potion room in the dormitory, using magic flames to change eight times in a row. The liquid in the crucible suddenly exploded, and a chain reaction occurred in the liquid in the crucible. Dozens of natural magic structure components conflicted with each other and turned into energy and burst out.
Locke promptly cast a permanent defense field and used the life field to try to compress the explosion into the size of a basketball.
The next moment, the crystal wall barrier formed by the condensed life force field shattered into a gap and almost went completely out of control.
Locke immediately took out the Hydra from the Star Ring, which had stored the magic pressure in advance, and immediately used the power of Mist to forcibly suppress the terrible explosion.
This prevented the explosion from sweeping across the entire potion room, but the crucible wrapped in Mist’s power was completely twisted and completely melted by the power of the explosion.
Locke chanted a spell, summoning the Black Hole Witch Peach, and sucked the pile of dangerous potion waste into the black hole deep in the Golden Crown Mountain.
“The consequences of failing to brew a Lucky Potion mid-breed are truly horrific.” Locke ordered the wood elf maid in to clean up, his expression grim. “The Lucky Potion is incredibly difficult to brew, worthy of being the third level of the Quetzalcoatl Pavilion.”
“The Luck Potion essentially utilizes the natural magical structure within a bunch of magical plants, concentrating luck together, and then having this wizard drink it. For an hour after drinking the Luck Potion, this wizard will have the greatest luck generated by the preparation process. However, this also means that if I fail during the refining process, I will incur the greatest misfortune.”
“So, just a normal potion failure can cause a huge magical explosion.”
“The power of the magic explosion was so extraordinary that even the permanent defense field of an ordinary first-ring wizard couldn’t defend against it. This means that when an ordinary first-ring potion master mixes a lucky potion, there’s a chance that the potion will fail and he’ll die.”
Locke exhaled. “Not only that, but preparing a lucky potion for a long time is very dangerous for the potion master, regardless of success or failure.”
“Under normal circumstances, a wizard cannot prepare lucky potions continuously. Otherwise, he will bring misfortune upon himself.”
The third round of ladder tests was indeed not that easy to pass.
Now, because I have left the Six Towers, and Alicia and I have no contact information, we have lost the ability to contact each other directly.
I don’t have a brain that can do anything.
However, given my current strange relationship with Alicia, I will not contact Alicia unless it is necessary.
After all, in a sense, Alicia chose her family over hers, and she chose the Starry Sea over hers.
“There are a large number of books in Yunze Wetland. I can consult those materials to make up for my lack of skills in preparing lucky potions.”
Locke stretched out his hand and summoned the primordial fire. This flame, formed from the original power left over from the beginning of the world, lay quietly in his palm.
“Let’s first use the Primordial Fire to successfully create a lucky potion.”
The materials in the Dragon Blood Market are very complete, so I have already purchased a set of materials for a lucky potion at the Dragon Blood Market and spent 70,000 magic stones.
My current savings are 300,000 magic stones.
The raw materials for the Lucky Potion are extremely expensive. After all, this is the most difficult and powerful first-level potion to refine.
If it weren’t for the ladder test, it would be difficult for me to even get my hands on the relevant potion formulas.
Locke handled the materials related to the lucky potion smoothly, and at the same time added its two most important main ingredients, namely the crushed powder of Granville’s lucky butterfly and the tail of Eris rat. These two rare magical creatures were the culprits for the raw materials that cost him 70,000 magic stones to put together a set of lucky potions.
At the same time, Locke added a lucky clover as an auxiliary material to remove the toxicity of Eris’s rat tail.
The main purpose of adding auxiliary materials to the pharmaceutical formula is to neutralize the toxicity of the core materials and secondary materials.
At the same time, Locke skillfully manipulated the primordial fire, causing the magical flame to switch back and forth between the fire element and the water element, and at the same time switch between the ice element and the flame element.
Through the use of multiple flames of different polarities, the two core materials with opposite properties are neutralized as much as possible, and the natural magical structural components are fused out.
Before, every time Locke failed, he was stuck at this step and could never switch in time between the two sets of magic flames with opposite properties.
This step can also stump countless first-level alchemists.
This step requires extremely high accuracy of magic power. Even the slightest mistake will cause a magic explosion and the entire lucky potion will fail.
Three hours later, Locke’s face turned slightly pale. He drank a bottle of Holy Spring Nectar potion to recover, and at the same time picked up the Lucky Potion in his hand.
“Using the Primordial Fire, you can successfully refine it… With the experience of successfully refining the Lucky Potion, everything will be much easier.”
Locke carefully placed the lucky potion into his star ring, preparing to find a time to drink a bottle of lucky potion and feel the effect of this potion.
Then, Locke left the dormitory and went to the breeder’s public laboratory at Zhenzhi Academy.
He walked to a small workbench in his laboratory. The three magic mirrors had already completed half of the work of mapping the new natural magic structure components. If they were used twice, the three magic mirrors would be able to complete the mapping of the new natural magic structure components.
As for the symbiotic relationship between the other four types of pineapples and magical creatures, I have already figured it out and written a final report because of the direction pointed out by the synthetic Rubik’s Cube. In another half a month to a month, my first fund at the Zhenzhi Academy will be completed.
At the same time, within the past half month, I have also prepared preliminary experimental data on three types of pineapples – black tear stone pineapple, snow wave pineapple, and yellow amber pineapple, and their relationship with the reproductive capacity of three specific magical creatures.
Locke plans to continue writing the final report and at the same time write the project application for promotion to the second-class fund.
But when Locke returned to his workstation, he frowned slightly, because a first-class wizard apprentice in a gray robe was standing next to his workstation, looking very nervous and uneasy.
When he saw me coming, he immediately looked at me nervously.
Mason, who was processing documents at her lab workstation, whispered to him, “Your teacher is here.”
At that time, Locke looked at the first-class wizard apprentice. He was about 1.7 meters tall, with a rather young face, and about twenty years old.
In fact, he is only two years younger than me.
But his magic pressure has reached 700, very close to 800.
Locke looked at Witch Mason, “Is this the student the academy assigned to me? The magic pressure is so high, almost close to 800. I saw that the students the academy assigned to you all seem to have a magic pressure between 400-600.”
Freya, sitting at the workstation next to Mason, shrugged. “Locke, that’s because the academy’s leadership treats us differently. The standard for assigning students to our ordinary Fellows of the Academy of True Knowledge is 400-600 Magical Pressure, but for students assigned to your Advanced Academy of True Knowledge, it’s 600 and above.”
Witch Mason waved her hand and said with a smile, “Students who are able to enter the Academy of True Knowledge and be jointly trained must be relatively outstanding students.”
“Even if he’s not the wizard candidate seed of this generation of Golden Crown Mountain, he’s very close.”
“So, it’s all about the same.”
Freya muttered, “What a huge difference! If I had a student with 700 Magic Pressure, I’d get so much more work done! I’d be so happy. Sometimes I get really annoyed looking at the students under me.”
The Mason Witch coughed once or twice to show that she was aware of the occasion.
Locke called the student out of the work area in the laboratory.
The two walked to the ridge of a magic field.
Locke asked him, “What’s your name? Please introduce yourself. Are you a candidate wizard from Mount Golden Crown?”
Gregor Robinson swallowed, feeling a little nervous. In his eyes, Locke’s demonic pressure was as heavy as a mountain, towering as if there was no end in sight.
The terrifying demonic pressure enveloped Locke, tempered and perfect.
This makes Gregor very nervous.
At this moment, facing Locke’s question about whether he was a candidate for the wizard of Golden Crown Mountain, Gregor blushed and his mind raced, fearing that Locke would be dissatisfied with him.
“Teacher, my name is Gregor Robinson, and I’m a wizard apprentice studying botany.” Gregor whispered, “Teacher, I’m not a wizard candidate seed yet, but I can work hard to become a wizard candidate seed of Golden Crown Mountain.”
“The Golden Crown Mountain Wizard Candidate Seeds are only the top three in a school, and their magic power generally reaches 800. Teacher, I will work hard.”
Locke nodded slightly.
He had anticipated this. Jinmianshan would place a group of his more outstanding wizard apprentices into the Academy of True Knowledge for joint training, and also as the lowest-level labor force within the Academy of True Knowledge.
Therefore, the most outstanding group of wizard apprentices who are about to become official wizards will not be placed in the Academy of True Knowledge.
However, it would be of great benefit to me if I could obtain a student whose magic pressure has reached 700.
In this way, it would be much easier to help him become an official wizard.
Next, Locke exchanged a few words with Gregor and learned that his learning experience was actually quite simple.
First of all, he was a native of Yunze Wetlands, and then he was a son of the wood element. After entering Jinmaon Mountain at the age of 16, he began to study step by step.
The apprentice-level plant spells he learned were from the Yunze Wetland-specific magic series, “Unstoppable Force,” and the accompanying magic plant used was the apprentice-level magic plant: Iron Bamboo.
Locke glanced at Gregor, who looked very nervous. He was his first official student.
Students within the teaching system.
According to the contract, he needs to bring out two formal wizard-level students from the Academy of True Knowledge before he can obtain an exit certificate.
Locke thought about the first time Witch Sophia met him. Was he also so nervous at that time?
Locke smiled and asked Gregor for his iron bamboo. It was obvious that the iron bamboo had been carefully cared for by him and was growing well.
Locke said, “From today on, you will follow me and help me organize the information. Start by organizing my information and then help me with some work.”
In this way, someone will be able to do the miscellaneous tasks that bothered Locke, such as filing financial accounts and purchasing various miscellaneous items.
Moreover, within his own project, in addition to discovering those unknown natural magic structures, there are also some more advanced experiments. This apprentice cannot help him, but all other trivial experiments can be done by him.
It saves me a lot of trouble.
Gregor saluted Locke and said, “Yes, teacher.”
Locke said to him, “By the way, since this is our first meeting, I’ll give you a better apprentice-level magic plant.”
Locke gave him the Black Sword Bamboo that Albert had given him. Although this rare magic plant had been damaged in the previous battle, he had repaired it long ago. After all, he was a first-ring-level breeder.
“Thank you, teacher.” Gregor took the Black Lock Sword Bamboo from his hand. The next moment, the Black Lock Sword Bamboo burst out due to the magic pressure infused by Locke.
“This…” Gregor swallowed. “Teacher, this is too precious. It contains your magical power.”
“I……”
Locke shook his head slightly. “You are my first student, so it is only natural that I treat you well.”
Locke wiped his nose. Whenever he said this, the image of another witch always appeared in his mind.
He couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
Is the image Gregor currently holds in her eyes the same as the image he once held in Sophia’s eyes? Gregor
caressed the high-quality magical pressure transmitted to him by the Black Lock Sword Bamboo, and his own magical pressure suddenly stirred, combining with it, even bringing him some benefits.
Gregor said to Locke, “Thank you, teacher.”
“My original wizard mentor was very strict with me. He had many, many students, and I barely saw him all year round. Even when we did meet, I couldn’t talk to him. He even couldn’t remember my name. But you seem different from him.”
Gregor seemed to be opened up by Locke’s kindness. “I thought you would be a strict person.”
“No, no, what I mean is that you are still majestic in my eyes, but I didn’t expect you to be so kind to us.”
Locke smiled and said, “Your original mentor should be the wizard mentor of Jinman Mountain… He has many students, but you are my first student.”
“Let’s go. I’m going to the Ice Mirror Room today. Please help me organize the information at my workstation.”
Gregor quickly caught up with Locke. “Yes, teacher.”
