Alicia and Locke entered the Mage Saint Hall together with Grand Wizard Sulla.
At this ti, because those demons had already retreated, the martial law over the Mage Saint Hall had been completely lifted, and the magical radiance on each of the great mage towers had also completely disappeared.
Locke looked toward these mage towers. These mage towers were still different from wizard towers.
Spell eyes floated at the top of these towers, transforming into colorful spiritual eye-shaped virtual spell models, as if a spell eye had grown from the top of each tower. So magical radiance still rotated around these spell eyes.
This was because mages cast spells entirely through external power, so the energy core of a mage tower was placed externally.
Those spell eyes were the energy cores of these mage towers. Inside the mage towers were a large number of magical circuits that amplified magical energy. Aside from the energy core being different, the other parts were basically a simplified version of a wizard tower.
At this mont, the spell eyes of those mage towers all turned toward Locke, or rather, toward the back of his hand.
So of the native mages had already discovered the blue mark on the back of Locke's hand, and their faces showed angry expressions.
"That's the Child of Prophecy, everyone prepare..."
The next mont, Grand Wizard Sulla snapped his fingers, and at the sa ti, so tree bark marks appeared on his face, with so tree patterns that only Tree Elders possessed.
Clearly, this avatar of his was not centered on the Scorpion Woman bloodline, but centered on the Tree Elder.
Locke had seen tree demons before. In the deepest part of Witch Sophia's magical creature breeding room, a tree demon was imprisoned.
And Tree Elders were even more powerful than tree demons. They were tree demons fortunate enough to live past the tree demon's age limit of 300 years and still survive, breaking through their bloodline limit under certain accidental coincidences and becoming First Circle creatures. That's why they were called Tree Elders.
At this mont, Grand Wizard Sulla's avatar activated the Tree Elder bloodline and cast a powerful human charm spell on the entire city.
This city was originally established by him, so he had left countless hidden tricks in this city. When he was teaching these native students, due to his nature, he didn't trust them at all and had left countless traps while they were learning.
Therefore, the entire city, with tens of thousands of mages of different levels, including the thirty Mage Saints equivalent to First Circle wizards, were all controlled by Grand Wizard Sulla's avatar in an instant.
All the natives had blank stares in their eyes. Then, they stiffly turned around and began doing their own things.
The entire city beca a city of puppets for Grand Wizard Sulla alone. Each native beca Grand Wizard Sulla's marionette under the effect of the powerful human charm spell, and unknowingly, they still believed they possessed free will.
A mage scholar from the Mage Saint Hall wrote this on the first floor of the city's central hall, "The Mage Saint Hall has won its 45th victory against those monsters of unknown origin. Today is a day of great victory, representing that the three-hundred-year civilization of the Mage Plane has turned a new page."
"Thank the Grand Mage Sulla, who has brought us civilization and magic."
Grand Wizard Sulla swept his gaze over these marionettes and explained to Locke and Alicia, "My patience with these natives is actually not very much. So of their mories are directly written into their brains by using the powerful human charm spell."
"The main bloodline core of this body is the Tree Elder, along with ten types of tree demon subspecies bloodlines, forming an avatar body equivalent to a wizard at the crystallization stage. However, this type of bloodline has limited achievents and reaches its limit at the crystallization stage, unless I can find an advanced ditation thod compatible with the tree demon bloodline."
"However, that's not easy. Many First Circle wizard talents have sold their lives to the academy for so many years for an advanced ditation thod. How could I get one just because I want it?"
Grand Wizard Sulla said, "Using the powerful human charm spell, I can directly control them and blur many unreasonable things."
"This way, no one will suspect my identity, and in the history of this plane, no one will ever question how I suddenly erged from so obscure corner."
Grand Wizard Sulla led the two of them into this plane's beggar's version of the White Dragon Tower, which was actually a proper large wizard tower. Inside the wizard tower was an elental fission well, constantly drawing energy from this plane to supply the wizard tower and the entire city with power.
The first thing Locke saw upon entering this wizard tower was the large number of thick black pipes at the bottom of the tower, as well as huge hot steam, and mages constantly repairing these pipes.
"This is... because the Mage Plane is only a low-magic world, it cannot support the energy requirents of this wizard tower, so you had to connect the wizard tower's pipes to this plane's core and forcibly extract energy from the plane's core?"
Locke guessed.
Grand Wizard Sulla smiled and said, "Yes, you're very clever, that's exactly right. So I need a large workforce to repair the nurous pipes inside this wizard tower, and this workforce preferably needs to use magic."
"This is also one of the reasons why I taught these people magic. So, you really should trust . I believe that sincerity is the most precious quality in this world. Therefore, I am full of sincerity toward everyone."
"Look..." Grand Wizard Sulla and Locke and the others stood on the floating stairs. As the floating stairs ascended, they could see that inside this wizard tower were many rooms. In those rooms with railings, so unique magical creatures from this plane were imprisoned, along with so unique treasures and even unique plants.
"These are all treasures I've collected from this plane. There are a total of 237 types of magical creatures unique to this plane, all collected and carefully studied by to determine whether there's anything useful to among them. And new types of magical creatures can always be discovered every few years."
"Besides this, I also excavated a special water resource called 'Boiling Silver Spring' underground. When the body is imrsed in this special water resource, all hidden injuries to the body and soul will completely recover. At the sa ti, the efficiency of ditation in it will suddenly increase several tis. Moreover, for us bloodline refiners, it's also a supre treasure that can accelerate the fusion of the mixed bloodlines in the body."
Grand Wizard Sulla said, "However, unfortunately, this special water resource has a shelf life and must be used within a week of being excavated, or it will lose its effect and instead beco poisonous water."
"So the resource is precious. Currently, I only have one portion left. Alicia, you go and use it."
The floating stairs stopped, and Grand Wizard Sulla pointed to a bath at the end of the corridor passage ahead, filled with silver liquid like rcury.
Alicia looked toward Locke. "But, Grandfather..."
Grand Wizard Sulla smiled at her indulgently. "Don't worry, I have my own arrangents."
"Locke, I also excavated a treasure that can be called a supre treasure for you potion masters, a spark of primordial fire."
Grand Wizard Sulla waved his hand, and a door in the corridor ahead opened, revealing a fla restrained by layers of magical power.
"Locke, now you should understand why I spent more than three hundred years building the Mage Saint Hall. It's because this city can collect so many of this plane's resources for . Similarly, as long as you can help and enable those mages to cast First Circle magic, this spark of primordial fire, precious enough that it's very likely the only one in this plane, will be yours."
