Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 673

Chapter 670: Entering the Soul Decline Period and Obtaining the Moon Witch Stone

There is indeed a treasure among them, but it is not an ancient object at all, but a recently fallen mineral, entangled with abyssal energy.

Locke took out a smooth round stone wrapped in abyssal energy from the astral ring.

When Wizard Smith saw this scene, his eyes widened and he reached out to take the Apocalypse Wizard Stone from Locke’s hand.

The next moment, the magical power between the two turned into a fierce wind, hovering between them.

All the disguises on Wizard Smith’s face almost completely faded away, and instead his eyes were filled with desire for the Apocalypse Wizard Stone. He simply stretched out his hand, and a spell model was completed almost instantly.

The magic lights in Private Room 1 suddenly flickered and malfunctioned, and the room fell into darkness. In the darkness, a huge meteorite, wrapped in lightning, hit Locke.

Complex spell models appeared in the hands of Wizard Smith.

Locke instantly realized that the moment the other party attacked, a breath of aging came from his soul, which meant that the other party’s soul was about to reach the limit of its lifespan.

Although the other party is still very young.

The magic in the opponent’s hands should be a very special and extremely powerful magic.

The next moment, these illusions disappeared, and an extremely complex spell model composed of fifteen concentric circles appeared in Wizard Smith’s hand. On the edges of these concentric circle spell models, there were one hundred and eight stars moving on these concentric circle spell models.

A voice seemed to reach Wizard Smith’s ear. “I know, Grandfather. This is Golden Crown Mountain. I know.”

“I was impulsive just now. I’m sorry.”

“grandfather.”

Locke immediately realized that the three-ring wizard in the Storm Tower had been secretly watching this place, but because he was his elder, he did not come out to negotiate with him.

Wizard Smith looked at Locke, still sitting on the sofa across from him, expressionless, and burst into laughter. “I don’t know if you were just frightened, or if you were confident, or if you didn’t take it seriously at all. You didn’t even cast any defensive spells.”

“There’s no intention of even using the permanent defense field.”

Locke looked up at him and said, “Nothing. I just don’t think Wizard Smith would act irrationally.”

Wizard Smith smiled and said, “Indeed.”

Locke looked at him and said, “However, there was a hint of decay in your soul breath just now. You are only about thirty-five years old.”

“It’s probably because of the decline of the soul.”

“Your magic pressure has long reached its limit and is constantly impacting your soul’s limit. Your soul is already overwhelmed. Unless you voluntarily give up some of your magical power, I’m afraid you won’t be able to hold on for much longer given your current physical condition.”

Wizard Smith hummed, dismissing the idea. “It’s just the decline of my soul. To keep the Holy Grail Tournament quiet, I can’t become a Second Ring Wizard early.”

“The Silent Holy Grail Competition is a competition for modeling the ultimate magic. Once we enter the Silent Plane, we can instantly build our own ultimate magic. The competition is simply about whose ultimate magic has the best loop structure, nothing more.”

“So, it won’t affect the competition at all. And after the competition, I can immediately become a second-ring wizard. Storm Tower has already prepared a plane for me. I think you guys at Golden Crown Mountain should have prepared one for you as well.”

Locke was speechless and didn’t say anything.

Wizard Smith said to himself, “To be honest, I thought my opponent at Golden Crown Mountain would be Witch Preston. Although she is spoiled and willful, she is a tough opponent.”

“If it’s her, then I can basically guess the blueprint for her ultimate magic. It should be a bloodline ultimate magic, probably related to the White Dragon Clan, and it should be the ultimate magic [Sleeping Dragon Glacier].”

“This is a great magic passed down in her family. It’s tricky, but there are solutions.”

“In fact, before the competition, my five research groups analyzed the champions of the magic combat competitions of various universities for me.” Wizard Smith said, “Your victory was completely unexpected.”

“Also…” Wizard Smith’s face flickered with gloom. “The other two champions also surpassed the results that my five research group students painstakingly calculated day and night.”

“After all this time, I’ve been doing nothing.”

Locke raised the ordinary stone in his hand.

Suddenly, Wizard Smith’s gaze moved upwards following Locke’s palm.

While talking to him, Locke contacted the Sith team leader and learned from him what the Apocalypse Wizard Stone was.

There are two types of witch stones, one is man-made and the other is naturally formed.

The Apocalypse Wizard Stone is formed naturally. It is a special [meteorite plane] that moves in the endless void. These [meteorite planes] move in the major gravitational fields of the endless void. When the plane is almost worn out and only the core part remains, it will be captured by a certain plane.

If the core part is worn out by 80% or 90%, the remaining part is the Apocalypse Wizard Stone.

Legend has it that this special meteorite has a powerful auxiliary effect on the magic of the prophecy school.

Moreover, for wizards of the alchemy school, it is also a rare material for making magic weapons.

Similarly, some second-ring potions also require this special wizard stone.

However, Locke is not a second-ring alchemist and cannot use this kind of stone for the time being.

Moreover, there was something wrong with the stone in his hand. It contained too much abyssal energy and seemed to have been tampered with by a certain demon duke. Therefore, it was not an ordinary apocalypse wizard stone.

As for the Storm Tower in front of us, the reason why we need this stone is also very simple. The Apocalypse Wizard Stone is also very useful for weather masters.

This rare wizard stone can be used to build many special weather systems.

Moreover, Locke just glimpsed that Wizard Smith’s great magic is likely a meteorite system.

It is indeed very special.

There seemed to be some traces of prophetic magic in the blueprint of that great magic, so he would indeed care about the Apocalypse Wizard Stone.

Such a piece of Apocalypse Wizard Stone can be used by many weather masters in the Storm Tower, and it is enough for them to use for a long time.

Wizard Smith said, “Tell me, what do you want to trade? I think you have figured out what this thing is.”

Locke glanced at him. “You can trade if you want.”

The Apocalypse Wizard Stone is of no use to him at the moment, and there is something wrong with this Wizard Stone. It contains such rich abyss energy that no one would believe that it has not been tampered with by the Demon Duke.

Locke even suspected that the Demon Grand Duke had put something in this Apocalypse Wizard Stone. Unless it was necessary, he had no reason to use it for anything.

The Apocalypse Wizard Stone is not a necessity for me.

Wizard Smith suddenly became interested. “Go ahead.”

The leader of the Thunder Demon Society wizards on the side looked at this scene unwillingly. It turned out that Wizard Smith did not take their Thunder Demon Society seriously.

They said they brought him to Golden Crown Mountain to ask for an explanation for their Thunder Demon Society, but now Wizard Smith has reached an agreement with the Golden Crown Mountain wizard in front of him and is actually making a deal in front of him.

Wizard Smith didn’t take him seriously at all.

A flash of hatred appeared in the wizard’s eyes, but that hatred was not directed at Locke, but at Wizard Smith.

Locke sat on the sofa and said to Wizard Smith, “I heard that Storm Tower has a wealth of knowledge about astronomy. I want your school’s moon plane, as well as all the secret knowledge about astronomy and meteorology.”

Wizard Smith frowned. “Secret knowledge? Be more specific.”

Locke said, “I want all the research data from the team led by Sun Ring Wizard Mana Hayes studying the Moon Plane.”

Wizard Smith looked thoughtful. “Well?”

Locke said, “Besides that, I want you to exchange it for the Moon Witch Stone from the Storm Tower.”

Wizard Smith looked up in astonishment, looked at Locke, and said, “Are you talking to the Lord of the Throne?”

Locke did agree to trade the Apocalypse Witch Stone with the Smith family only after consulting the witch Ekaterina, and it was the witch Ekaterina who suggested that he exchange it for the Moon Witch Stone.

After all, this thing involves the Silent Holy Grail Conquest Competition, and the Apocalypse Wizard Stone is obviously related to the Smith Wizard’s great magic construction, and it is very likely that it can improve the quality of his great magic.

Therefore, it is reasonable for me to inform my cooperating wizard and not act on my own.

It was also the witch Ekaterina who reminded herself that the Apocalypse Witch Stone had been specially tampered with by the Demon Grand Duke, so she should take action as soon as possible and not keep it on herself.

It’s unlucky to keep it.

Wizard Smith waited for a moment, seemingly also communicating with the three-ring wizard on his side. Soon, he got the result. “Okay. Switch it.”

“Let’s sign the contract. Then, I can trade with you using the Moon Witch Stone right away, but the information you requested will take some time to provide.”

Locke said, “We can sign the contract first. Once you are able to trade with me, we can proceed with the transaction.”

Wizard Smith frowned and remained silent for a moment. Then he said, “Manna Hayes is one of my elders. She agreed to give you some materials that her research group has already published, as well as some that have only been published in the library inside Storm Tower. Is that okay?”

Locke nodded and said, “Okay, let’s sign the contract.”

The two parties signed the contract and conducted the transaction at the same time.

After Locke and Wizard Smith added the Water Hyacinth System as their friends, they immediately received file information from the other party.

Locke checked it and confirmed that there was no problem, then looked at a fist-sized moon rock that he had traded from Wizard Smith.

Is this the moon rock?

According to legend, there is a naturally formed witch stone that can only be excavated from deep underground veins on the Moon Plane. It is the condensed spiritual essence of the Moon Plane and possesses all the characteristics of the Moon Plane.

With this wizard stone, my understanding of the moon will become deeper!
After obtaining the Apocalypse Wizard Stone, Wizard Smith smiled and then couldn’t stop laughing.

He seemed to have completely ignored the wizard leader of the Thunder Demon Society. This man was of no use to him at all.

His goal has been achieved.

Wizard Smith looked at Locke, his eyes filled with calculation and fear for his rival. “You’ve seen my Great Magic Blueprint. You should know how important this Wizard Stone is to me, right?”

Locke said, “Hmm. It seems you can use it to elevate the essence of your immense magic to a higher level.”

Wizard Smith asked curiously, “Aren’t you worried? You’re aiding the enemy.”

Locke gave him a questioning look. “This deal will benefit both of us. Why should I worry?”

“I also need the Moon Witch Stone. You are also aiding the enemy.”

“As long as I grow faster than you, I can gain an advantage in this transaction.”

“Being afraid of trading is simply a lack of confidence in yourself. But this lack of confidence will only cause you to miss opportunities.”

Wizard Smith raised his lip and said, “Growing faster than me?”

“Well, I will make you regret trading the Apocalypse Wizard Stone to me at the Silent Grail Tournament. Farewell, my young friend from Golden Crown Mountain.”

“I hope you can still maintain this confidence that comes out of nowhere.”

Wizard Smith smiled and said, “That’s right. Your soul seems to have entered a period of decline as well.”

He never looked at the leader of the Thunder Demon Society again, as if this person no longer existed.

The leading wizard of the Thunder Demon Society didn’t know whether it was better to leave or not.

Locke looked at him coldly, but he couldn’t think of any legal reason to make him disappear.

Moreover, it seemed that he was not the one causing trouble for himself, so Locke ignored him.

Locke took the Moon Witch Stone and left Private Room No. 1 of the Witch Kitchen. He looked at the Witch Stone in his hand and wanted to go directly back to his laboratory to start studying its properties.

If I use this Moon Witch Stone, I should be able to make the magic moon I create closer to the real moon.

Maybe this could help me complete my Forest Alliance Spell.

Wizard Smith was right. His soul had almost entered a period of decline. Even a bronze magic weapon could not increase the upper limit of his soul by much.

Currently, his demonic pressure is constantly leaking out, and he feels exhausted all the time.

After the demonic pressure reached the limit of one ring, the increasingly powerful feeling disappeared, and he no longer felt like a strong man, but instead felt like a weak patient.

The feeling of increasing fullness turned into a feeling of increasing lack.

This is the period of soul decline!
This is also a terrible level that has troubled countless creatures in the endless void.

Throughout history, countless geniuses have been stuck at this stage.

Locke noticed that a powerful witch was standing in front of him. She seemed to be a second-ring wizard, and the magic pressure was vast and unfathomable.

So Locke stopped at the door of the witch’s kitchen.

A strange blonde witch looked at Locke with dissatisfaction. “Locke, you didn’t recognize me?”

Locke looked at the wizarding academy badge on her chest.

Rose Council?

Could it be?
Locke looked at the flower language master next to the blonde witch, whom he had met once in the Tomb City. The other person was looking at him with hatred.

At this moment, after hearing the words of the Sun Ring Witch, his expression was suddenly stunned.

Locke looked at the Sun Ring Witch in front of him and said, “Witch Lana?”

Witch Lana laughed angrily. “You and I have been chatting via letters for months, claiming to have read all my articles. But you haven’t even seen a single one of my magic portraits?”
