Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 632

Chapter 629 Ecological Corridors and Subspace Zones

Locke observed carefully and found that this demiplane located in a special area in the void [subspace zone] actually carried natural magical tides.

Victoria Witch smiled and said, “Because it is located in a special subspace zone, the internal matter will not flow into the void. Therefore, I only need to introduce the magic tides from the outside world into this demiplane to create an environment similar to the basic magic tides of the Yunze Wetlands.”

“So, was it worth spending these two million magic stones?”

Locke’s eyes lit up. “Worth it!”

If that’s the case, then the two million magic stones are well worth spending.

This is a magic field with a magical tidal environment of 10,000 acres, the same level as the Yunze Wetland.

Only such an area could support the magical plant forest that he had expected.

Locke decisively took out two hundred magic crystal cards and handed them to Witch Victoria, “Teacher Victoria, these are two hundred magic crystal cards. Let’s sign the contract.”

Witch Victoria looked at the two stacks of magic crystal cards on the table and was stunned for a moment. Two million magic stones were just a small amount of money for her, but it was still a lot of money for a first-ring wizard.

The Victorian witch hesitated for a moment, then asked, “Where do you live now? Is it Golden Horn Town?”

Locke looked at Witch Victoria in confusion and said, “No, Teacher Victoria, this is the dormitory assigned to me by the academy. What’s wrong, Teacher Victoria?”

Victoria took a sip of wizard tea, then smiled and said nothing. “Nothing, I just think you are young and promising.”

“There are very few First Ring Wizards who can produce two hundred Magic Crystal Cards at once. These two hundred Magic Crystal Cards can be used to develop two decent projects for a First Ring Wizard. Of course, this amount of money is still too little to actually start a project.”

“I can’t sign a contract. This is because my product is currently only in the laboratory, but I can trade it to you directly. Your teacher is my best friend, so you don’t have to worry about after-sales service.”

The Victorian witch pointed to Locke’s right eye, meaning to trade the contact lens directly to him.

Only then did Locke understand that the Victorian witch asked him where he lived just to confirm his strength and his background.

Since he lived in the dormitory assigned by the college, it meant that he was able to come up with such a large sum of money at once not because he had any background, but because he earned it himself.

This is why Victorian witches would say they were young and accomplished.

Golden Horn Town…

It seems to be a famous wizard town on the Golden Crown Mountain. Maybe many native wizards of the Golden Crown Mountain live there.

Victoria Witch said, “Well… since you paid so readily, I’ll give you another set of golems.”

Locke was about to speak when he saw the Victorian witch stretch out her finger and lightly touch the pupil of his right eye.

Suddenly, a ray of light fell into the pupil of his right eye.

When the light landed on the ground, it revealed a set of one hundred clay golems of varying sizes.

Locke looked at these clay golems, which had the logo of Quinjol University engraved on them.

Victoria Witch smiled and said, “This is a set of agricultural golems worth 500,000 magic stones. It can cultivate land for you and maintain the magic fields.”

Locke said, “Teacher Victoria, this is too expensive. I can’t accept it.”

Victoria Witch smiled and said, “It’s okay. This is just a greeting gift for our first meeting.”

“Since your teacher asked you to come meet me, it means that you and her are not just partners commissioned by the academy, but are actually her students. As her good friend, I naturally want to give her a nice gift.”

Seeing Locke’s concern, Witch Victoria couldn’t help but laugh. “Don’t worry. Your teacher has already paid for something of the same price. One of my last disciples received a similar gift from her.”

“I was just returning the favor.”

“This set of agricultural golems was created by the alchemists of Quinnjoel University. The clay golems of Yunze Wetlands are the most famous, and the most famous among them are the clay golems made by Quinnjoel University. These clay golems can perform various delicate operations and will not disappoint you.”

“The internal alchemy chip is loaded with a lot of data on using breeder equipment and agricultural equipment. It can handle most simple operations, although it can’t completely replace the help of students.”

“Well…some special things that require wizards to complete still need students to take the lead. Locke, do you have any students?”

Locke thought, “Well, there are two.”

Victoria nodded. “That’s too little. Since you want such a large demiplane, it means your cultivation area is extremely large. If that’s the case, then your small number of students is not enough.”

“Wait, you’re a researcher at the Institute of True Knowledge, right? No wonder then.”

“Once you get a teaching position, you’ll have a large number of students,” said the Victorian witch. “For now, you can use the agricultural golem I gave you.”

Locke thought about it and felt that as the number of magical plants that needed to be transplanted in his forest sanctuary increased, he really needed some students to help him.

What’s counterintuitive is that as my magic level increases, it seems that the number of students I need is also increasing.

No wonder many high-level wizards like to have groups of students.

There are many things that only wizards can do, and they must be done by wizard apprentices.

“Let my two students, the dozen or so students from Witch Mason’s group, and the five first-class wizard apprentices I acquired from the previous trade, and then hire some people from the intermediary agencies in the market. That should be enough for the work.”

Locke pondered.

He had always been reluctant to reveal the existence of the Forest Sanctuary, but now that he was growing stronger and the Forest Sanctuary was becoming more powerful, it didn’t matter if he let others know about it.

To put it bluntly…

At present, his forest sanctuary has grown to the point where its health bar is thicker than his own.

It is extremely difficult to directly destroy the forest sanctuary that contains ancient trees of life. It is almost equivalent to making an enemy of the entire ancient forest with a backbone.

After Locke thanked Witch Victoria, he turned around and left the shop. This way, he still had 600 magic crystal cards left.

In addition, half a month later, he would be able to transfer another thirty magic crystal cards from the Fairy Family Bank. At present, he was already very rich.

Locke first returned to the dormitory and learned about the one hundred clay golems in the demiplane. After confirming that there was no problem and gaining a preliminary understanding of their functions, Locke found Gregor and Williams.

At this time, Williams’s magic pressure was 790, very close to 800, while Gregor’s magic pressure was 750. In the past six months, Gregor had made good progress.

Locke told the two of them about his plan to move the forest sanctuary into the demiplane, and the two of them expressed their willingness to help Locke complete this huge project.

Williams said, “It’s just the teacher. There are only three of us. Isn’t that a little too few people?”

“I feel like it might take us a few years to finish moving.”

Locke said, “I have a complete set of agricultural golems worth 500,000 to help us move. However, during this process, maintenance work and some details will need to be done by someone.”

“Of course, there is a shortage of manpower.”

Locke thought, “I’ll call Mason Witch and the others, and their students. If there are still not enough people, I can go to the market to hire some.”

However, there are many first-class wizard apprentices hired in the market, and even if I don’t have to care about the secrets of the Forest Sanctuary as much as before, it is still not good to let those outsiders get access to it.

Perhaps, I can ask Team Leader Celtic. He has been running the business here for a long time and has many students. Maybe I can borrow some people from him.

Gregor hesitated, raised his hand, and hesitated to speak.

Locke said, “You say.”

Gregor said, “Teacher, I’ve recently come into contact with the tea connoisseur industry. I want to… give it a try, so I privately signed up for a tea connoisseur course. I don’t know if you agree, but I may not be able to help you with work recently…”

Locke was stunned for a moment. “This is the first time I’ve seen you take the initiative. But of course. Where did you sign up for the course?”

Gregor said, “Teacher, I signed up at the Preston White Dragon Tea Room in the Dragon’s Blood Market. I heard that the teacher is the first-level wizard Aphra Valentine.”

Locke frowned slightly. Isn’t that the property of Preston Witch’s family?
He took out the wishing Ganoderma lucidum and asked directly on the Water Hyacinth system. Preston Witch, who had previously added him as a friend, basically explained the situation.

Witch Preston instantly sent a reply. “Hmm? Aphra Valentine? That’s a witch from another school. And she’s just an ordinary first-level witch, so her abilities are very limited.”

“But she has great marketing skills and is very good at packaging herself, so I let her sell tea art classes. But honestly, her foundation is very average, and I think she’s a bit misleading. Your student wants to take classes with her? Oh, it’s better not to. Give me his name and I’ll arrange a teacher for him.”

Locke sent the name to Preston Witch.

Witch Preston sent herself an ‘OK’ emoji and then sent herself a message. “The third-place witch, Julian, refused to participate in the Plane Conquest Competition. That girl truly has no regard for the collective interests of Golden Crown Mountain. Therefore, the ones who will be joining you in the Plane Conquest Competition are Antoine and me.”

“I don’t understand why that guy Antoine agreed to go with us.”

“Brother Locke, let’s get along well in the competition in half a year. My parents said that participating in the Plane Conquest Competition will be beneficial for constructing great magic, so they asked me not to refuse.”

Locke sent her a thumbs-up emoji.

Then, Locke looked up at Gregor and said, “Gregor, I asked my friends about the teacher you originally signed up for, and they found him to be extremely unreliable.”

Gregor’s expression changed slightly. “What should I do then… Teacher, I’ve already paid the 1,000 magic stones.”

Locke said, “I’ve arranged another teacher for you. Just go and take the class. You don’t have to worry about anything else.”

Gregor looked at Locke with awe.

He didn’t expect that Locke could be so powerful in a shop in the Dragon Blood Market.

Just contact one person and he will be assigned a better teacher.

Gregor immediately saluted Locke. “Thank you, teacher.”

Locke nodded. “But during this time, you still have to help me with the work. At least help me finish moving the Forest Sanctuary.”

Gregor nodded immediately, “Yes, teacher.”

So, the next day, Locke called a group of people to start moving his forest sanctuary.

Witch Mason and others brought their students into Locke’s forest sanctuary for the first time. Looking at the terrifying ancient forest and the hundreds of one-ring magic plants in front of them, they couldn’t help but marvel.

First… Locke is incredibly rich.

At just a glance, they discovered that Locke’s investment in his forest sanctuary should be between three million and four million magic stones.

Second, there is some strange power flowing through all these forests.

Those are two kinds of Mist’s power, and an ancient power that the forest possesses after absorbing the night meteor.

Witch Mason looked up at the Ancient Tree of Life in the center of Locke Forest, slightly amazed. “Ancient Tree of Life! It turns out such a miraculous plant actually exists in this world.”

Wizard Barrett and Witch Freya also looked surprised.

They were followed by their students.

Locke responded, “Mason, I remember there was a wizard named Edgar David at Quinjol University. I competed with him before in the Yunze Cup, and he had quite a few Ancient Trees of Life.”

Witch Mason smiled and said, “But this is the first time we have seen the Ancient Tree of Life.”

“But thank you, Team Leader Locke. I didn’t expect you to trust the three of us so much.”

Locke said: “Well, we are a small team after all.”

Freya, the witch, turned her face sternly and scolded the five students behind her, “Be careful and don’t be careless. If you break anything and ruin my good work, I won’t forgive you.”

Witch Freya was quite strict with her students. “Did you hear me?”

The five first-class wizard apprentices suddenly tensed up and told her that they would do their work seriously and obey Teacher Augustine completely.

Wizard Barrett said, “Freya, you are too strict with your students. You even complained about Team Leader Celtic in front of us before, saying that you were too strict in the past.”

Witch Freya said distressedly, “You haven’t seen how I clean up the mess my students cause me. I’ve gradually come to realize that if you’re not strict with your students, then when they make mistakes and the situation becomes unmanageable, it becomes your responsibility as their mentor.”

Witch Freya looked at Locke and said, “Team leader, where should we start?”

Wizard Barrett scratched his head and said, “Locke, your forest is already naturally formed. I don’t think we can move each tree one by one. That would destroy the entire forest. How about we use the golems and these first-class wizard apprentices to dig out the entire forest and then move it into your new cosmic light contact lenses?”

Locke nodded. “That’s what I thought, too.”

“Because only wizards can set up magic circles, I need enough students and three friends to help me set up hardening magic circles for every piece of land at the bottom of the forest. Then I will divide these forests into more than 300 pieces and move them into my new plane bit by bit using golems and students. This is a time-consuming project, but I want to complete it as soon as possible.”

“It would be best if it could be done within a week.”

I am about to go explore the abyss ruins.

Wizard Barrett fell into deep thought. “Finish it within a week. With so few of us, we’d be lucky if we could finish it within a month.”

Mason looked at Freya and said, “Freya, why don’t you ask your friends to come and help?”

Witch Freya quickly waved her hands. “No, no. The team leader’s forest sanctuary is a secret. My friends are just fair-weather buddies. It’s fine to hang out with them, but if I really want them to do something this serious, then absolutely not.”

“If something goes wrong…” Freya glanced at Locke and said with her hands spread out, “I’ll feel so guilty.”

Witch Mason frowned, looked at Locke and said, “Locke, there is another way.”

Locke said, “Mason, what?”

Witch Mason said, “I’m good friends with the female leader of a green elf tribe in the Golden Crown Mountain region. Her tribe has dozens of female elves who are equivalent to first-class wizard apprentices. I can ask her for help. She’s a close friend of mine, so she’s absolutely reliable. With their help, we can definitely complete the relocation within a week.”

Locke nodded slightly.

It seems that the three members of my team really have their own ways.

But it is also normal, they are all wizards in the first ring crystallization stage of the Zhenzhi Academy. Naturally, they have their own social circles and can leverage a lot of resources.

If you ask them to come over and brainstorm, you can naturally find a solution to the problem quickly.

So Locke started working with the others first, and then asked Mason Witch to set off immediately to find the friend she mentioned to come and help.

Locke and others first used shovels to dig the soil around the roots of each tree, and tried to harden the soil with magic circles on the soil balls at the roots of the trees to facilitate relocation. Everyone started to get busy.

While Locke was busy with this matter, he did not forget to write a letter to the Sun Ring Wizard of the Rose Council to ask questions.

In a private office of a Sun Ring wizard in the Rose Council, Master Flower Language Master Lana Alvarez had a strange expression on her face. She looked at a student in front of her and suddenly stopped listening to his progress report. Instead, she suddenly asked the First Ring wizard from the True Knowledge Academy, “Fleming, here is a letter from a First Ring wizard from Golden Crown Mountain.”

“He keeps asking me for details about an article I wrote thirty years ago. Do you think I should write back?”

Fleming wiped the sweat from his forehead, because the wizard Lana in front of him was his co-mentor and his teacher.

Fleming didn’t know why Witch Lana suddenly asked this question when he was reporting on the research progress of the fourth-class fund project.

His mind was completely confused, and he was wondering whether Witch Lana was testing him by saying this.

“Teacher, isn’t this wizard from Golden Crown Mountain a bit too bold to actually write a letter to the Sun Ring Wizard asking questions? You are not his teacher.”

Witch Lana nodded, agreeing. “That’s why I ignored him before. Who knew he’d be so prolific and so fond of writing to me? Oh, and he also offended a lot of flower language masters during the September 1st True Love Festival.”

“You have offended our Rose Council.”

Wizard Fleming immediately thought he understood Witch Lana’s thoughts and immediately feigned anger in front of her, empathizing with her. “He should be thankful if we don’t deal with this lunatic. He even had the audacity to write to you, teacher… You can reply and scold him harshly.”

Witch Lana’s expression changed slightly, and then she glanced at Wizard Fleming and said, “Fleming, you are really too narrow-minded. You have talent but no moral integrity. That’s why I look down on you.”

“Since this wizard has read an article I wrote thirty years ago and has continued to write to me with questions, I naturally have to write back to him. How could I be as petty as you? What do you think of the Sun Ring Wizard?”

Wizard Fleming was so frightened that he saluted Witch Lana, and at the same time he felt like crying but had no tears.

“Why does my teacher always scold me for whatever I say?”

“Wasn’t it she who first asked me to scold the wizard? I was just following her words.”

“I can’t take it anymore! Professor Lana is so moody. After she reads my progress report, she’s going to scold me again. I can’t take it anymore. I want to drop out!”

Wizard Fleming thought distressedly, “This is even more terrible than my promotion to a formal wizard. I am so unlucky.”

“Witch Lana’s moods are as mercilessly changing as a hibiscus flower, capricious and unpredictable like a chaotic system. I’m a formal wizard after all, so please stop scolding me like that!”

“If I had known this earlier, I would have asked Lana Witch about all the wizards who had partnered with her over the years, including those who had quit. What a mistake. I was really too busy before.”

Witch Lana picked up her magic quill and began writing on the envelope, “Hello, Wizard Augustine. Your perseverance has impressed me. You have a spirit of inquiry.”

‘That article was written by me thirty years ago, and now I have something better.’

I’ve discovered that in nature, there are things called ecological corridors between different forests. I believe that for different forests to interact better and maintain a better exchange of power, they need to be artificially created. I recommend reading the following books. I’ll include these articles in my reply. These are my recent works, which you won’t find on Jinman Mountain.

‘Although I don’t know what you are going to do with this research, I hope you can make good use of my research.’

“I love that there are wizards like you in this world who are so obsessed with ecological corridors.”
