Locke instructed the three First Circle wizards that they could ask him for any materials they needed, and each person should go back and independently prepare a proposal for their chosen research topic for him to choose from.
At the sa ti, Locke returned to his residence located 10 kiloters from the White Dragon Tower. Inside the White Dragon Tower, the passage of ti wasn't very obvious. Only the timing hourglasses visible everywhere in the corridors showed the change of ti.
The magical lights inside White Dragon Tower No. 2 were always permanently lit, as if there were no distinction between day and night.
Inside the study of his suite, Locke ordered the three wood elf maids in the suite to clean, then closed the study door and activated the magical lock.
Next, he sat on a stool and took out an erald green ring from his astral ring. This ring had stems and leaves intertwined with each other, connecting head to tail to form a circle.
Locke sensed the magical pressure emanating from the Lucky Four-Leaf Clover Ring, and his expression changed slightly. "Teacher Sophia's magical pressure has beco increasingly powerful and of higher quality. This doesn't seem to be the magical pressure that an ordinary crystallization stage wizard could possess anymore. Isn't this magical pressure almost exceeding ten thousand?"
A magical pressure of ten thousand was a threshold.
The magical pressure of crystallization stage wizards was above 9,000 but below 10,000.
After magical pressure reached over nine thousand, every single point of increase beca extrely difficult, requiring vast amounts of resources.
"This ans that Teacher Sophia's magical pressure is so close to ten thousand, and may have even already reached it, so she's already very close to becoming a Second Circle wizard."
Locke thought to himself, "It's only been a little over two years since we parted, and she's already almost beco a Second Circle wizard after going to the Star Domain Sea."
"That's really fast."
After pondering for a mont, Locke decided that after becoming a formal wizard, he would contact Witch Sophia for the first ti.
The Lucky Clover Ring had three storage slots for First Circle magic, and Sophia had already pre-stored three First Circle Ecological Niche Communication Spell in it.
It could be used to make contact three tis.
Once one of the stored First Circle magic spell slots was used up, a new spell slot would beco available, allowing a new First Circle magic to be stored in it.
Locke sat in the study and placed the Lucky Four-Leaf Clover Ring on the index finger of his right hand. Imdiately, the Lucky Four-Leaf Clover emitted a pale green magical radiance, and at the sa ti, the leaf portions of the four-leaf clover on the ring began to sway in the wind, as if dancing.
A torrent of life energy appeared in the room.
This was Locke's first attempt to contact the Star Domain Sea over a long distance from another wizard land. Locke didn't know whether this so-called Ecological Niche Communication Spell could achieve this.
So he could only try.
Imdiately after, Locke seed to see countless animals and plants within this torrent of life energy, from lower order to higher order, from higher order back to lower order. The evolution of countless lives gathered together, forming a long river of history. This was the history of natural ecological evolution and progression, and also the torrent of ecological niches.
Locke experienced the evolution of life and realized that this Ecological Niche Communication Spell seed to connect two targets that had been locked onto each other's ecological niches in advance, then used the principle of ecological resonance to produce a connection effect.
However, this magic required ecological niche resonance settings to be established with the other party in advance, and each contact would consu one ecological niche resonance. It couldn't be replenished over long distances, which was why Witch Sophia had said that before she entered the Star Domain Sea, she could only be contacted three tis using this ring.
With the aid of the long river of ecological niche torrents, Locke successfully captured that unique ecological niche in that distant place, seemingly among countless star rivers, that resonated with him alone.
"I've captured it." Locke closed his eyes. "Teacher's magical pressure is indeed around ten thousand. My perception wasn't wrong. She's at the critical breakthrough point and could break through to beco a Second Circle wizard at any ti."
"Wait, this magnitude of magical tide..." Through the Ecological Niche Communication Spell, Locke coupled the resonance of his individual ecological niche with Sophia's ecological niche, so it was equivalent to him being present in the Star Domain Sea as an ecological niche at this mont.
A look of shock appeared on Locke's face. "Such terrifying magical tides. Clearly, both the Land of Six Towers and the Star Domain Sea are dium magic regions, but the concentration gradient of their magical tides simply cannot be compared."
"Is this what a region that's about to ascend from dium magic to a high magic region is like? I've heard that the Star Domain Sea already possesses so characteristics of high magic regions."
Locke noticed that his mana in the Star Domain Sea actually began to continuously beco active, becoming very restless. As a result, although it was very troubleso to control, it also ant that the sa spell could exert several tis more power in the Star Domain Sea.
There was no other reason because that place was a region close to high magic.
That place was the most civilized region nearby. That place symbolized civilization itself.
Where all rivers flow into the sea, outstanding talents from major wizard lands in surrounding regions were all heading toward the Star Domain Sea, all to pursue a dream of seeking truth.
Locke felt that in the Star Domain Sea, he seed to be closer to the Natural Plane.
The Star Domain Sea was like a giant, and standing on its shoulders, one could get closer to those distant Force Planes in the void. Naturally, the advantage when ditating would be even greater.
It could be said that in the Star Domain Sea, even just breathing a mouthful of air was comparable to the effect of entering a First Circle wizard secret realm in an ordinary wizard land.
"No wonder there's an air tax in the Star Domain Sea..." Locke's expression beca strange. "Very good, everything about the Star Domain Sea is perfect, except for the so-called air tax and extrely expensive rent."
"Without a teaching position, if I went there, I'd probably beco a First Circle wizard beggar after just a few days. Only by having a teaching position in the Star Domain Sea and being assigned employee housing could I go there."
Locke sensed the surprise from within Witch Sophia's heart. "Teacher, it's , Locke Augustine."
"Can you hear speaking? I've already beco a formal wizard, and I'm also going to participate in the Cloud Marsh Cup competition. This ti I'm contacting you not only to catch up with you, Teacher, but also because I want to receive so guidance from you. The Cloud Marsh Cup requires cultivating tactical-level magical plants, the kind that 3 to 5 wizards jointly control."
...
Star Domain Sea, City of a Thousand Towers, inside the laboratory of a Fourth Circle wizard of Partinos, a Star Sea Scholar.
Sophia was in the middle of conducting an experint when she suddenly sensed the magical pressure from the Lucky Four-Leaf Clover worn on the middle finger of her right hand. A delighted expression appeared on her face. "This is Locke's magical pressure? He's finally beco a formal wizard and co to contact . It's been over two years since I've seen him. I do miss him a bit."
Witch Sophia raised her right hand in surprise. "Liquefaction stage magical pressure? Locke's progress is this fast?"
Witch Sophia said to a Second Circle wizard beside her, "Senior Brother Naxos, one of my students is trying to contact . May I..."
This young Second Circle wizard wearing white wizard robes smiled and said, "Of course you can."
"Sophia, you go ahead. I'll watch over things here for you. It's not easy for students from lower-level wizard lands to contact you, so don't miss this opportunity."
"Our research group is the Star Sea Scholar's major research group. The atmosphere is relaxed, and there's nothing that requires racing against every second. Results don't co from effort and hard work, but from one's own wisdom and insight." The Second Circle wizard senior brother smiled and said, "However, may I ask one more question? You just said your student is already at the liquefaction stage, so how old is he now?"
Witch Sophia said, "Um... about 21 years old, I think."
The Second Circle wizard senior brother showed a surprised expression. "21 years old? No wonder... He also wants to co to the Star Domain Sea, doesn't he? Although this achievent isn't considered outstanding in the Star Domain Sea, he's studying magic in a lower-level wizard land, so this speed can be considered quite astonishing."
"Alright, Sophia, go ahead. Don't worry, in our laboratory you don't need to be so diligent. The ntor has said that compared to our efforts, he hopes more to see our wisdom."
