Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 552

Chapter 549: Obtaining Special Permissions to the Emerald Secret Realm

Locke asked, “The Blue Rice Blast Incident?”

Grace nodded and said, “In fact, the rapid development of various magical heavy industries has been without any regulations for a long time. As a result, many wizards have developed the habit of exhausting resources. That is, they do not consider future generations or others, but only prioritize their own interests. Among the major wizarding lands, the Spiral Basin in your eastern border and several wizarding lands in our southern border are particularly serious.”

“Because the Spiral Basin is connected to the Corrupted Deep Sea, a super-large elemental plane in the Endless Void, it is scarce in resources and has the worst innate development conditions of all wizarding lands.”

“But because of this, the wizards of Spiral Basin have developed a reckless and speculative style.”

Locke nodded slightly. For example, the White Wizard Association in the Spiral Basin was probably one of the few branches of the White Wizard Association that could collude with the Black Wizard Alliance and completely disobey the orders of the White Wizard Association headquarters.

Witch Grace pushed her thick glasses up and said, “Fifty years ago, the White Wizards Association of the Spiral Basin, in order to rapidly advance its development, introduced a large number of polluting magical heavy industrial store alliances.”

“At first, many of us didn’t know why those shop alliances would go to the Spiral Basin, which had nothing. Later, we learned that it was because the Spiral Basin offered them many advantages, advantages that those shop alliances specializing in alchemy, enchantment, and transmutation couldn’t obtain in other areas.”

“Because those store alliances brought a prosperous production chain and a large amount of resources to the Spiral Basin, the White Wizard Association of the Spiral Basin turned a blind eye to this.”

“The White Wizard Association of the Spiral Basin mistakenly believed this would benefit them. However, the subsequent outbreak of the Blue Rice Blight forced the White Wizard Association of the Spiral Basin to pay several times more resources than they had received from those store alliances to compensate for it.”

“Despite all that has been done and all the resources that have been spent, some of the damage has been done permanently.”

Witch Grace said, “Those shop alliances secretly released a mixture of particles called niobium into the Spiral Basin, without even informing the local White Wizard Association, exploiting a regulatory loophole. That niobium is used extensively in the engines of void battleships, as well as in the creation of golem energy pools and wizard tower energy pools. Alchemists may also use this element.”

“Besides that, there are a large number of high-level magical processing products that may also use this kind of thing.”

“It’s just that the store alliance, out of their own selfish desire to gain more economic benefits, concealed this matter from the White Wizards Association.”

“The nitrite element particles are difficult to eliminate, bio-aggregate, neurotoxic, and can disrupt the binding of air elements. They can leave vast tracts of land barren and wither all plants. They have a powerful magical toxicity.”

“The most terrifying thing is that it has bioaccumulation properties. Furthermore, the store alliance spent a lot of money to hide this matter, bribing the victims and the wizards who discovered it. As a result, the store alliance secretly emitted niobium particles in the Spiral Basin for fifty years.”

Witch Grace said angrily, “Without any warning, without any compensation, and with almost no victims knowing about this, the wizards, mortals, plants, and magical creatures of the Spiral Basin have to drink untreated wastewater from the magical heavy industry every day.”

“Afterwards, according to our investigation, all seventeen major rivers in the Spiral Basin were contaminated by heavy nirvanadium particles. Due to the special properties of heavy nirvana particles, even after two hundred years, they can still be detected in the river water. They have directly caused countless casualties, but the indirect casualties are impossible to count.”

“This ecological crisis has attracted the attention of the Jungle Hand. But we all noticed that the events in the Spiral Basin were caused by the Blue Rice Blast incident.”

Locke suddenly realized. “Is it because of the stimulation of the niobium element that some of the demonic plants have mutated?”

Witch Grace nodded and said, “Several crops in the Spiral Basin have mutated, but the most famous is the poisonous blue rice. Consuming this blue rice for more than three months will cause your skin to turn blue, multiple organs to fail, and your blood essence to undergo irreversible mutations.”

“Potion makers tried their best and made amends afterwards, but this was a mistake that lasted for fifty years. It’s not something that can be completely rectified by human power.”

Witch Grace said, “After the Blue Rice Blast incident, a large number of wizards from the White Wizard Association in the Spiral Basin were severely punished, but they will return to the White Wizard Association after a period of time.”

“We all know that transfers and demotions only temporarily relocate them; they’ll soon be back. This is why we at Jungle Hands have always emphasized environmental protection.”

Locke nodded slightly. “So, those two elements released by the two nightmares just now are both?”

Witch Grace said, “Nightmares died due to pollution, so they transformed into nightmares in the Emerald Dream and continue to spread pollution. They were polluted by human hearts, but now they are aiding and abetting the evil, spreading pollution in the Emerald Dream for human hearts.”

“Nylon heavy particles are very high-level energy particles with strong contaminating properties. Generally speaking, it’s difficult for individual wizards to resist them with a permanent defense field. Furthermore, Nylon heavy particles are extremely resistant to life energy. They have a bio-aggregation property and can easily contaminate life. This is a force that the Emerald Dream and natural forces cannot resolve.”

“Protium particles are a derivative of neptunium particles. They are a highly toxic and corrosive gas. However, they are not as dangerous as neptunium particles.”

“The heavy particles of the element have the ability to ignore permanent defensive force fields and can also destroy and damage the demonic plants they come into contact with. Even though I have never come into contact with heavy particles of the element, my body can no longer withstand it.”

Witch Grace said, “Because the heavy particles of the element Nirvanadium have biological aggregation properties, these composite element particles will automatically gather in living organisms. The toxicity of the heavy particles of the element Nirvanadium easily binds to life energy, in turn plundering our life energy.”

“It also has a strong neurotoxic effect. Even without coming into contact with it, just being close to it would have poisoned us. I just don’t know why your permanent defense field can block the heavy particles of the element.”

“The Ancient Life Tree [Isisdal] died because of the local heavy industrial wastewater. Because of its kind nature, the Ancient Life Tree had been working hard to protect the local natural environment, but in the end, it couldn’t even protect itself.”

Locke nodded. “I see. So, how do you, the Jungle Hands, usually deal with those nightmares?”

Grace hesitated for a moment, then pulled a wizard sword radiating green magic from her astral ring. “This is a wizard sword forged by the alchemist of the Jungle Hand. Because Nightmare is too sensitive to magical plants and life magic, and the Emerald Dream only invites wizards of the School of Life to enter.”

“Therefore, this one-ring magic weapon was specially designed—the Nightmare Enemy.”

“As long as I can kill it with this sword, I can kill it once and for all, ending its miserable fate.”

Witch Grace said, “But I can’t give it to you, because this kind of wizard sword is extremely precious, and I only carry one.”

Locke nodded slightly. “Okay, but I want to thank you for letting me understand what a nightmare is. And letting me know the details of that nightmare of life.”

“I suggest we go out separately later.”

Witch Grace was stunned for a moment and said, “Huh? Why don’t we do it together? Wouldn’t it be better if the two of us could deal with that nightmare together?”

Locke nodded. “But the battlefield is vast, and the Nightmare of Life might have gone somewhere else. So it’s best if we split up and search for it.”

“We need to find it as soon as possible. If it gains enough energy during this process and becomes a second-ring existence, it will be very troublesome.”

Witch Grace frowned. “You’re right. But I always feel something is amiss. Okay, then I’ll leave this hiding place first. We can act separately. My trump card isn’t suitable for use when I’m with my companions.”

“When the beast soul attacks, it doesn’t distinguish between friend and foe.”

“Goodbye, wizard from Yunze Wetlands.” Witch Grace had learned Locke’s name during their previous conversation. “Locke, it’s a pity that we are so far apart that it’s impossible to contact each other.”

“I’m so glad to have met you this time. I’m so happy to see the natural world being maintained by so many wonderful wizards.”

Witch Grace used the wind chime dandelion to quickly leave the breadfruit tree.

Shortly after she left, Locke used the Big Green Leaf Dragon Bird to fly out of the breadfruit tree, and then took a walk in the beautiful and heavenly scenery of the Emerald Dream.

About an hour later.

A terrifying evil force approached, flocks of birds flew nearby, and all the flowers, plants and trees withered.

The Nightmare of Life [Isisdal] came together with the Nightmare of War he summoned, and behind him followed a long army of magical creatures corrupted by the power of his nightmare.

Life Nightmare [Isisdal] looked at Locke, who had his back to him, and shouted, “I finally found you.”

“My War Nightmare has long locked onto your hostility. Even if you use magic to temporarily conceal it, as long as you remove the magic for a long time, I will be able to track you. Hahahaha… wizard, you didn’t expect this.”

“The nightmare of revenge has come. I am the destroyer of nature, I am the destroyer of nature, I am nature…”

Locke turned around, and the three-eyed tiger-eyed cat’s natural magic eye appeared on his forehead. At the same time, primitive runes appeared in the magic eye, which was the power of the ferocious beast.

The next moment, the power of Mist was slashed out. After Locke used the beast panel to increase his magic pressure to 9999, and even gained some more powerful power in this emerald dream, the blessed power of Mist became an irresistible force.

With just one strike, the entire army of contaminated magical creatures behind the Nightmare of Life [Isisdal] were annihilated.

The Nightmare of Life [Isisdal] stared wide-eyed at the tree trunk. “This…”

Locke turned around, looked at the Life Nightmare [Isisdal] and said, “I know you’ve locked your war nightmare on me. I’ve always known that. That’s why I’m here, waiting for you alone. After all, I don’t want a strange wizard to see my original runes.”

“You…” Life Nightmare [Isisdal] was stunned. “Did you do this on purpose? You’re waiting for me here? What’s with that power in you? Why does it scare Nightmare?”

A three-eyed tiger-eyed cat loomed faintly behind Locke. It seemed to lower its body, looking down at the nightmare, its intimidating presence undeniable. “Grace’s magic pressure is 9,300. She’s not that old, probably in her early thirties.”

“Still a young witch.”

“Her mentor sent her to deal with you, which means he has some confidence in her. Therefore, the so-called beast soul in her body should be able to amplify her magic pressure and give her the power to resist the heavy particles of the element. But when I fought you just now, and combined with the information I learned about you from Witch Grace, I calculated and found that if I use the beast panel and add the power of Mist, I still have the power to crush you.”

The war nightmare behind the nightmare of life [Isisdal] sneaked around behind Locke, and the tree man with black smoke attacked Locke from behind, but was pierced through by the golden fern spear transformed from the shining sea sand and nailed into the distance.

Locke, who used the ferocious beast template, doubled his panel and his strength reached the limit of one ring. His magic pressure completely defeated the life nightmare [Isisdal] and the war nightmare, and the power of the ferocious beast seemed to have a natural suppression on the nightmare.

It turns out that there is power in nature to deal with nightmares. The power of the guardians of nature can effectively suppress the nightmare power of nightmares.

The power of Mist in Locke’s body condensed into an axe. At the same time, he swung the axe towards the Nightmare of Life [Isisdal]. The Nightmare of Life summoned out the Spear of Life, followed by a large amount of sewage, and shot towards Locke.

The next moment, Mist’s power came into contact with the Spear of Life, and then the Spear of Life suddenly split into two halves.

The Nightmare of Life [Isisdal] turned and tried to flee. “What kind of power is this? Why does my strength naturally weaken by three points in front of him?”

As soon as the tree man turned around, he saw Locke appearing in front of him, which scared him so much that he felt cold all over the treetops. At the same time, the next moment, Locke stretched out his right hand and recalled the shining sea golden sand that turned into a golden fern spear.

Then, the shining sea sand fell into his hands. At the same time, Locke held the golden spear, and the power of Mist gathered at the tip of the golden spear to strengthen and bless this plant magic.

This was a new use of Mist’s Power that Locke had discovered during the battle!
Using Mist’s Power to enhance plant magic, rather than simply using Mist’s Power, allowed him to increase his output to a higher level. Combined with the added power of the beast and the Emerald Dream, this attack likely reached the maximum output limit possible at the first ring stage.

The next moment, the body of the Life Nightmare [Isisdal] was pierced through.

“How is it possible… How can life magic kill me?” The Life Nightmare [Isisdal] took two steps back, in disbelief. Its nightmare power was actually collapsing. “Besides the Jungle Hand, there is another power that can kill me.”

Locke was not surprised to see this scene. During the battle, he discovered that Mist’s power could harm the nightmare of life [Isisdal], but it could not be completely fatal. At most, it could seriously injure it.

That’s why I chose to retreat and talk to Grace to get information about Nightmare.

But he had suspected before that the power of the beast might be useful to Nightmare, which was why the Emerald Dream was so excited about his arrival.

Just want to know more about it, better safe than sorry.

But now it turns out that the power of the ferocious beast is the nemesis of the power of nightmare.

Locke said: “If this is what the Emerald Dream wants me to do, then I have already done it.”

Locke realized that his body was in an illusory state, and it seemed that he had completed his mission, so the conscription was over.

At the same time, the Nightmare of Life [Isisdal] suddenly spoke: “No… it’s not killing… it’s actually purification.”

The nightmare power in Isidal’s body was suddenly shattered, and the originally twisted nightmare turned into a beautiful ancient tree of life, lush and green.

Isisdal looked at Locke in awe. At this time, under the guidance of the world will of the Emerald Dream, it already knew Locke’s identity. Isisdal’s personality also changed because of the death of the nightmare, and returned to its original personality.

“Thank you, Guardian of Nature, for purifying the resentment in me.”

“It saved my dignity.”

“Let me find my way back.”

Isisdal’s body also dissipated. “With this, I am free. In return, I will give you a portion of my life essence. Also, according to my contract with the Emerald Dream, I will give you one of the seeds of my reincarnation.”

Isisdal’s body completely dissipated, leaving behind a seed and a ball of pure life spirit.

Locke was stunned for a moment, then the world spun around him and he left the Emerald Secret Realm.
