Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 831

Chapter 828 Catherine the Witch’s New Mission

Locke continued to delve deeper into this world. Thirteen shadows appeared in his mind, these thirteen shadows resembling thirteen giants.

They had divided the authority of that world.

The God of Fire, the God of Water, the God of Wind, the God of Light…

Locke frowned. He could sense that the power of the planes had been separately exploited by these beings. The world power corresponding to each concept within the crater was being appropriated by those giants, resulting in each of them possessing the strength of a second-ring level being.

Locke was speechless.

Not because they possessed second-ring level strength; that was irrelevant.

Anything strange could happen in the endless void, especially when it was just second-ring level magical pressure.

In the end, the total amount of magical pressure wasn’t valuable; after all, whose magical pressure could exceed that of the world itself?

What was valuable was the level of civilization and the power system.

The key issue was that this world had been made extremely strange by these giants.

That giant race seemed to have dug a huge pit in the world itself.

At this moment, the world’s principles in that three-hole world seemed to Locke like a cheese riddled with holes.

First, how could such a world possibly survive?

Second, how did a group of native giants seize the power of the plane? And so thoroughly?

So extravagantly? So insanely?

The entire world seemed to be used to satisfy their own private desires.

Locke even had a near-mad thought:

‘Could it be that that world could have originally become a medium-sized world, but because of these parasites, it could only remain a medium-sized world? It’s not impossible.’ ‘

Given the strength of this world, it’s clearly only one step away from becoming a medium-sized world. In fact, many worlds can evolve on their own, perfecting that final step.’ “

The giants claim to be gods and demand the service of mortals,”

Locke mused, lost in thought. “There seems to be a huge secret hidden here. Each of those giants has completely seized a dimension of power from that world.” “

But it’s not just thirteen dimensions that have been stolen.”

Locke conjured up an ideal model of the world’s dimensional laws in his mind. If the dimensional laws of a plane should be a smooth sphere, then the model of that world’s dimensional laws was pitted and riddled with holes.

Some force seemed like a maggot, constantly plundering the world’s power, digging countless holes into its surface.

Locke planned to go there himself to observe the reason why that world could still function.

‘Could it be that those giants are truly false gods?’

‘The false gods of each plane are all different. After all, many beings try to claim to be gods.’ Locke

pondered, “The data I’ve gathered suggests that in planes smaller than medium size, the most common ‘false gods’ are totems worshipped by the locals, or animals, etc.” “

Then there are the primordial spirits of the locals.” “

Or some powerful, naturally occurring organisms; true false gods are rare.”

“What’s the situation in that world?”

At this moment, Locke was observing the plane information gathered from the Void Cube when, suddenly, a white crack appeared on the Void Cube.

The entire Void Cube shattered completely.

“Hmm?”

Locke realized that the power remaining within the Void Cube had suddenly become active, rapidly burning the light plane principles of the three planes contained within, converting them into energy, and then directly splitting the Void Cube in two.

Then, the arrow of light suddenly shot towards his pupils.

A dazzling arrow of light appeared from the Gate of Hell, ‘Infinite Mountain,’ appearing like a sun.

Many nearby wizards couldn’t help but turn their heads to look.

The power of the Light Dimension from the Three Hole Planes descended here; this was an arrow shot by the God of Light, one of the thirteen gods on the crater of the Three Hole World.

It embodied the great plane principles of the Three Hole World.

Like the radiance of the Three Hole Planes, it directly struck Locke.

‘Bang!’

The arrow struck Locke’s left pupil, causing ripples to spread across the permanent defensive force field shell on his cornea. A

second-ring level natural force field protected Locke.

‘Crack!’

The arrow of light suddenly shattered, transforming into streams of photons that passed across Locke’s face.

What seemed like the radiance of the entire world shattered into mere streams of light before his cornea.

After all, the Void Cube only had ten thousand, while his magic pressure was sixteen thousand.

Meanwhile, wizards also possess a permanent defensive force field shell, which is the true protective barrier of a wizard’s body. Under the same magical pressure, a wizard’s defense is much stronger due to this permanent defensive force field shell.

Locke frowned. This was the arrow from the God of Light among the thirteen giants.

The arrow shot forth like a torrent of light from the entire world crashing down.

“The strength is passable.”

Locke took a step forward, only to see that the arrow of light, which had already turned into streams of light, regrouped under the influence of the remaining light plane principle of the three worlds, transforming into a tidal wave of light arrow, which once again charged towards his left eye.

However, this arrow composed of a tidal wave of light particles struck his left eye again, still failing to break through his defenses.

‘Bang!’

Locke swung his right hand, directly shattering the light plane principle of the three worlds with a hand chop.

Locke frowned.

“Pathetic.”

But what puzzled him even more.

Judging from the opponent’s attack pattern, they are basically using the plane’s laws of that world to attack themselves, essentially using some plane’s laws to crush the enemy with each attack.

For enemies who are not high enough in level or rank, this is simply a superb skill for crushing weaklings.

But for a second-circle archmage, this is utterly laughable.

To him, this was nothing more than an unmodified energy surge, devoid of any magical manipulation or skill; it was simply throwing something raw at someone.

Even using only a tenth of its energy, he could utilize a magical model to unleash spell damage several times stronger.

The question then arose: how did such a being manage to seize the power of that plane?

That world was strange.

Locke was glad he had first used the Void Cube to probe that plane, even though this level of attack was like a primitive man wielding a wooden spear at a mecha.

But it also meant that that world itself might harbor some unknown risks.

Furthermore, he couldn’t confirm the combat strength of the giant who claimed to be the God of Light of the Three Caverns World within the crater pantheon. He

also couldn’t confirm the God King’s combat strength.

In addition, judging from the degree to which the plane’s laws had been corrupted in that world, it shouldn’t be possible for a pantheon to consist only of thirteen giants on the crater.

But there were indeed only thirteen giants on the crater.

Either the information collected by the Void Cube is faulty, but that’s unlikely, because he directly used the Void Cube to intercept the deepest plane’s power and obtained the information directly from it, making it difficult to modify artificially.

In short, that world clearly holds some secrets.

If he encountered this world in the Wizarding World, or if there were a plane gate at this moment, he naturally wouldn’t be afraid.

But the problem is, he entered that world through void travel, so the resources he can bring are limited.

Moreover, that world is unfamiliar; who knows what might be there?

Locke pondered, “Those giant false gods don’t seem to be primordial spirits or simply powerful creatures. They can indeed manipulate certain aspects of the plane’s principles, and the act of manipulating those principles is called ‘exercising divine power.'”

“However, for me, it’s just a simple, primitive use of plane principles to directly bombard others.”

To put it bluntly, for a wizard, this is equivalent to not using spell models to attack others, but directly bombarding the enemy with one’s own magic power.

Isn’t that absurd?

This is why Locke felt they were too primitive.

Locke pondered, “And strictly speaking, they are not power possessors, but power thieves. The power belongs to the specific plane’s laws, the power of that world itself, not them.”

“If these creatures left that plane, they should become mortals.”

“This is truly fascinating. This phenomenon is indeed worth studying.”

On Infinite Mountain, although some wizards showed surprise at Locke’s encounter with resistance from the natives, most wizards withdrew their gazes.

As the saying goes,

the Endless Void is extremely vast, and anything can happen.

Sometimes, unusual situations arise in certain planes.

At this moment, Jon Quess, the wizard who had met Locke before, approached.

“Hello, Wizard Locke. I never expected that the Void Cube you sent out would retain the power of those natives, and that they would even set traps and rebel against you.”

“However, this is just the stubbornness of ants,”

Wizard Jon Quess smiled. “Sometimes, you just encounter things like this. I think that’s precisely the allure of Void exploration. We enter a world that seems to consist only of primitive tribes, but who knows what magical powers might suddenly appear within those tribes?”

“That’s also the danger of Void exploration.”

“Even a second-ring wizard, if they encounter something like this in the isolated void, could easily be defeated. The fact that they have this ability to resist means that the world itself is quite complex.”

“The greatest danger isn’t the natives who can resist, but the world itself.”

“Many second-ring wizards underestimate those worlds, which is why they’ve failed miserably,”

Wizard Jon Quess said. “However, this also shows from another perspective that the target plane you have is of high economic value. Otherwise, this anomaly wouldn’t have occurred.”

“Well, do you need any help? I can help you develop that plane. My application for special funding this year was rejected, and I also think that topic isn’t viable. I’m looking for a new one,”

said Jon Quess. “If you need help, you can ask me.”

Locke nodded, knowing this was different from asking Hussein for help.

After all, Hussein was returning a favor.

If he were to bring Jon Quess along, it would mean developing the plane with him and giving up some of his profits.

This wouldn’t benefit him.

Although the plane had some anomalies, it was still largely under his control. He only needed to bring in Hussein, the old pirate, and Mason the Witch, among others, to form a sizable expedition team.

There was no need to involve other wizards and unnecessarily share profits.

Locke politely declined Jon Quess’s offer, saying, “Unfortunately, I’ve already gathered enough wizards to form an expedition team.”

Jon Quess was quite disappointed.

“That’s quite unfortunate. I was really looking forward to working with Locke Augustine.”

“Well then, Locke, good luck. Let’s work together for next year’s top grant.”

Locke nodded.

“Alright, we’ll work together.”

Jon Quess turned and left.

At the same time, Locke took a mirror from his astral ring and saw a peach blossom mark appear on his forehead.

Simultaneously, the original rings of his two wedding rings disappeared automatically, clearly having traveled to that world with his other half.

“Teacher’s Heart Spell has taken effect.”

“The trigger condition for Teacher’s Heart Spell is that I come into contact with another world. Before, in the Silent Dimension, because it wasn’t truly contact with a world, the Heart Spell wasn’t triggered.”

“The Heart Spell allows my other half to be born in that world.”

“I can sense that the giants in that world are increasingly fearful due to the overwhelming number of mortals, and they are preparing to launch a cataclysmic event to exterminate most of the population. I wonder what will happen if my other half is reborn in that world at this moment.”

And by using that other half, a wedding ring test can be conducted.

However, the main function of the Heart Spell is to quickly allow one’s other half to be born in a fixed, known plane; the wedding ring test is merely a secondary function.

At this moment, Locke discovered that the witch Catherine’s clone was actually calling him.

Catherine’s voice emanated from the Ganoderma lucidum plant.

“Locke, I’ve noticed your heart-shaped spell has been triggered.”

“You need to speed up the wedding ring test.”

Locke quickly replied, “Yes, teacher.”

Locke coughed, surprised that the witch Catherine would urge him to finish the test as soon as possible.

Catherine said, “By the way, I have a long-term task for you. Help me monitor a wizard named Douglas.”

Locke raised an eyebrow.

“The dark wizard you captured?”

Catherine said, “Yes. He should have an ancient soul inside him. I’ve been so busy lately. Help me find out the identity of that soul.”

“The Twin Demon Realms seem to have reached some cooperation with these ancient souls,”

Locke said. “Okay, teacher.”

“I’ve sent you the information on the second-ring level universal breeding method: the Spirit Breath Breeding Method,”

the witch Catherine said. “Besides that, there’s my unique breeding method, the Light Element Reverse Infusion Mutation Breeding Method. I don’t know if you can learn it. The reason this breeding method is unique to me is because it requires a special soul talent. However, you can look at it and play around with it first.”

“Alright, Locke, I’m now giving you a new serious task. You need to get your second-ring breeder certificate as soon as possible. Remember, complete the task quickly, otherwise, it will become very troublesome if the tasks pile up.”

“This will increase the difficulty.”

One more chapter tomorrow morning. The author is going to sleep now.
