That afternoon, in his dormitory, Locke t an unremarkable-looking young first-class wizard apprentice. Locke sensed the other's soul aura, at most forty years old, and his magic power was 600.
A first-class wizard apprentice of this age would still be considered young and accomplished in the southeastern quadrant, at least at Lilith's Cottage, at least at the level of his forr friends Andrew and Axi.
But in Cloud Marsh Wetland, he seed quite ordinary and commonplace, only able to follow Old George at Dragon Blood Market's interdiary agency.
Locke handed him the materials, "I want you to use this key experintal data to write four articles. I plan to submit them to Zone 2. Can you do it?"
This first-class wizard apprentice swallowed. In Old George's eyes, Locke's request naturally wouldn't be much.
Because the key experintal data and experintal procedures were already complete, and had even passed the Origin Academy's Tier 3 project funding because of it.
So, writing it would be quite simple.
They just needed to be emotionless writing robot machines, but for him, a first-class wizard apprentice from a small wizard organization, suddenly hearing about Zone 2 journals still created a lot of pressure.
"I can try my best. Teacher Augustine."
"Your experintal data is perfect, but I'm afraid my ability isn't enough to write the articles you need."
Locke nodded. This wizard apprentice was nad Luca Schneider, from a small wizard organization called [Scribe Society] near Golden Crown Mountain.
Cloud Marsh Wetland had an extrely vast area.
The number of wizard organizations and mortal nations was extrely high. The leader of Scribe Society was Old George.
That wizard organization's only wizard ntor was Old George, a teaching position recognized by the White Wizard Association.
Other formal wizards might be lecturer mages, or even nothing at all, only having internal position benefits within Scribe Society, positions not recognized by White Wizard Association headquarters.
Many small wizard organizations in Cloud Marsh Wetland had similar situations. For these small wizard organizations, teaching positions recognized by the White Wizard Association were extrely rare and difficult to obtain.
Perhaps only the leader had a wizard ntor position and could enjoy the related resources that ca with it, so this position was a treasure that could be passed down, the most valuable thing they possessed.
Scribe Society was a typical wizard academy that specialized in serving other wizard organizations, the entire wizard organization existing around Dragon Blood Market's interdiary agency. If they had problems at Dragon Blood Market's interdiary agency, the entire wizard academy might lose its work channels, leading to the collapse of the entire wizard organization.
Locke only discovered after returning why Old George had such strong resentnt toward Wizard Griffin.
After all, it was an Origin Academy project, and Witch Yekaterina was a major mber of the Origin Academy's Academic Committee. If she discovered academic misconduct, their interdiary agency, an already sensitive shop, might be shut down.
Then their Scribe Society would be completely finished.
For small wizard organizations, the slightest reaction from Golden Crown Mountain and Landbridge would possibly terminate the life of their ridiculous little wizard organization.
So, Old George was naturally very annoyed with Wizard Griffin then.
Even though Wizard Griffin's magic level was a whole major level higher than his.
Locke said to Schneider, "You can write in the study in my dormitory."
"You can choose any guest room and live there. Oh, there's a servant in my room who is the vampire Howard."
"If you have any needs, you can ask Howard."
Although it was just a faculty dormitory, this dormitory occupied an extrely large area, the interior equivalent to an entire large villa. There were eleven empty guest rooms alone, so it could completely handle entertaining guests without any problem.
The vampire Howard perford an elegant courtesy to Schneider.
Howard was originally a black wizard apprentice from Blood Curse Court that Locke had captured to help Witch Sophia. Later, when Locke left the southeastern quadrant, he also put him in the Druid's Ring and took him along.
He had followed Locke through the Land of Six Towers and now accompanied him to Cloud Marsh Wetland.
Although his foundation might be even worse than Schneider's, Locke had used him for a long ti, and Howard himself had no intention of leaving, so Locke just kept carrying him around.
When there was nothing to do, he had him act as a diligent gardener for his Forest Sanctuary in the Druid's Ring, or had him manage his dormitory.
Howard was also happy to follow a powerful formal wizard. His natural talent wasn't good enough, and he would find it very difficult to beco a formal wizard in this lifeti, but being able to follow a First Circle crystallization wizard was already the greatest honor of his life.
A flash of joy crossed Schneider's eyes.
As a first-class wizard apprentice of Scribe Society, he could only live at the foot of Golden Crown Mountain for his entire life, looking up at Golden Crown Mountain's divine radiance, watching Golden Crown Mountain's greatness that connected heaven and earth. He never expected that this ti, working for a researcher at Golden Crown Mountain's Origin Academy, he could actually live on Golden Crown Mountain's mountainside because of it.
For him, how could this not be a benefit!
This was the great advantage of working at Scribe Society's interdiary agency. Although he could only receive a salary of 500 magic stones per month, because he worked near Golden Crown Mountain, he could obtain many additional benefits.
You had to know, Golden Crown Mountain was Cloud Marsh Wetland's AAAAA-grade wizard scenic area. Wizards from other wizard organizations wanting to visit Golden Crown Mountain once needed to pay a price of tens of thousands of magic stones per person per day.
Being able to go up Golden Crown Mountain and enjoy Golden Crown Mountain's magical tide was absolutely a huge benefit for Schneider.
For wizard apprentices from small wizard organizations like them, being able to live on Golden Crown Mountain's mountainside and breathe Golden Crown Mountain's air was already a fortuitous encounter.
"Schneider, go find a place to stay first. I hope you can start work as soon as possible. Howard, go arrange accommodations for Schneider and arrange for a forest sprite to serve him."
Schneider respectfully bowed to Locke. "I'll start work as soon as possible, Teacher Augustine."
Howard raised his head even more respectfully, glanced at Locke, then bowed to him.
He had personally watched Locke go from a first-class wizard apprentice all the way to becoming the current First Circle crystallization wizard. Knowing everything, he only had respect for Locke.
In his eyes, Locke was like a deity from fairy tales, the perfect incarnation of a wizard.
Only such a person could reach this point within five years, right?
Howard at this ti wore an elegant formal suit, had completely viewed himself as Locke's servant, and completely supported Locke, this powerful master.
After they left, Locke went to Arthas's industrial park once and asked for a pile of potion materials and ten narcissus flowers, preparing to use them to create special potions for mutating the Hydra.
When the ordinary First Circle wizard staff mber at Arthas plantation heard Locke's request, he blinked. He actually really wanted to ask Locke why the Hydra backcrossing experint required a pile of potion studies materials.
But he thought of sothing and still held back from speaking, instead turning to instruct wizard apprentices to prepare materials for Locke.
And when Locke saw he had scamd another batch of research materials, he directly maintained silence.
No helping it. Currently speaking, he was too poor and could only do this.
...
Locke ca to Cloud Marsh Wetland's Dragon Blood Market's Feathered Serpent Pavilion for the first ti.
The Feathered Serpent Pavilion here was also divided into three floors, antique and elegant. The air diffused with expensive incense that cald the mind. The second floor here wasn't set up with coffee tables but tea tables, along with tea sets, tea utensils and tea pets.
In Cloud Marsh Wetland, this tea hotown, tea absolutely sold the best.
Locke had previously seen on Arthas's total sales ranking that three of the top three at that ti were tea packages. The three breeders who released these specially formulated tea packages, a breeder branch called tea masters, all had Landbridge backgrounds. They were either lecturer mages within Landbridge, wizards who graduated from Landbridge, or wizards jointly cultivated by Landbridge and other wizard organizations.
In Arthas's personal account, one could fill in their personal experiences.
After all, good products were also selling stories.
So, many wizards liked to fill in a pile of personal experiences on the Arthas Shop Alliance's water hyacinth system interface.
At that mont, as soon as Locke walked into the Feathered Serpent Pavilion, he felt a mysterious power bless him.
Locke at this ti had removed the Angel's Tear bracelet, letting the dragon's nest luck enhancent technique within the Feathered Serpent Pavilion bless him.
In this Feathered Serpent Pavilion, his luck would increase, and the Feathered Serpent Pavilion's potion room rent was cheap but well-equipped, so if he wanted to formulate a potion that could create Three-Headed Snakes, the best place was here.
As soon as Locke walked in, he attracted the attention of the five half-dragon people in this larger Feathered Serpent Pavilion. These half-dragon people all paused their service to potion master custors and looked at Locke.
Soon, a green half-dragon person walked over and bowed slightly to Locke. "Power and antiquity, your bloodline harbors world-destroying auras. Respected dragon, the Feathered Serpent Pavilion welcos you to this shop. What do you need?"
Locke said coldly, "Show the potion formulas that the Feathered Serpent Pavilion can trade today."
The green half-dragon person smiled, "Of course."
Soon, he showed Locke the potion formulas tradable today. Locke had the highest viewing permissions, so he could see more tradable potion formulas for today than ordinary potion masters.
He scanned through once, morized the specific characteristics and brief descriptions of the potion formulas, confird there were no First Circle level potions that could attract him, then returned the materials to this green half-dragon shopkeeper.
"I need a potion room. Prepare it for ."
"Oh right, I should only need to pay half price, right? So, I only need to pay 500 magic stones."
The green half-dragon person greedily slled the true dragon aura Locke diffused in the air. He was extrely respectful toward Locke. "Of course."
"Esteed guest, please follow . I'll arrange the best potion room for you, guaranteeing no one can disturb you."
The three potion masters in the Feathered Serpent Pavilion all looked at this scene in astonishnt.
They had never seen the half-dragon people in the Feathered Serpent Pavilion treat a wizard with such respect.
Half-dragon people were naturally indifferent in temperant, without much emotion. Wasn't this their racial characteristic?
Why would they be so respectful to an ordinary First Circle crystallization wizard, even showing huge emotional fluctuations because of his every word and action?
Were these still half-dragon people?
The three First Circle crystallization wizards from Golden Crown Mountain looked at each other. They were all lecturer mages at Golden Crown Mountain, or wizards within Golden Crown Mountain who temporarily hadn't gotten teaching positions yet but had related benefits.
But among themselves, because they were all potion masters from potion studies academies, they had seen each other to so extent.
At this mont, they all saw confusion in each other's eyes.
They didn't know what background that wizard had that could make the mysterious half-dragon wizards of the Feathered Serpent Pavilion have such a respectful attitude.
The origins of this group of half-dragon people at the Feathered Serpent Pavilion were mysterious, their purposes unknown. It was only known that regardless of which realm, which wizard land, which wizard academy, as long as it was a place with slightly more wizards, there would be the presence of the Feathered Serpent Pavilion.
One potion master said in a low voice, "Seems to be from Golden Crown Mountain's Origin Academy."
Another potion master quickly put away their curiosity and shook their head slightly. "Forget it, doesn't have much to do with us."
"The Origin Academy has many super geniuses to begin with. Who would want to go to the Origin Academy if they didn't want to progress further? But coming to the Three Marsh Lands and still wanting to progress further, what they seek... is very great."
Half an hour later, on the second floor of the Feathered Serpent Pavilion, in the potion room, Locke used Primordial Fire, holding that article published by the Rose Council's Origin Academy researcher he saw in Green Grass Cloud Marsh. Following the preparation thod above, he manually used ice elent magical flas and low-temperature extraction thods to extract the pure substance of Type 3 narcissus suppressant.
"The core material is Type 3 narcissus suppressant. For secondary materials, I can try adding so blood snake flowers. Auxiliary materials can use red-lined snake venom to neutralize the toxicity of blood snake flowers and narcissus suppressant, then add peripheral materials."
Locke followed the principles of potion formula creation, barely completed a potion material preparation, then poured it out from the crucible.
Looking at the dark, viscous potion, Locke's intuition had a bad feeling.
From one pot of potion, he obtained three bottles of potion in total. Locke took out one bottle of potion and poured it into a flowerpot with Hydra seeds buried in it.
Then, Locke used the First Circle plant studies magic Rapid Growth on it, wanting to create rapid growth Hydra.
The result... nothing happened.
Locke's mouth twitched. Thinking it wasn't enough energy, he threw a moss pith into the flowerpot. When that moss pith disappeared into the flowerpot, still nothing happened.
Locke finally confird that the potion he had just formulated was basically poison for magical plants. It hadn't achieved the purpose of modifying the Hydra's plant essence, but instead directly killed the Hydra seeds.
"It should be that the potion formula I created has serious errors." Locke thought and judged, "It might be that the secondary materials shouldn't use materials with toxicity as strong as blood snake flowers, or that there aren't enough materials to remove toxicity in the auxiliary materials."
"The portions aren't enough."
"If it were an ordinary potion master, they could only try slowly. I can try new potion formulas according to normal potion master research thods while also conducting synthesis, using the Synthesis Cube to help search and give so hints."
One day later, Locke exhausted all the materials he had shalessly asked for from Arthas and indeed obtained nothing.
At the sa ti, he looked at the description of the potion synthesized by his synthesis formula: [Level 8 synthetic item, a not excellent plant extermination potion. The combination of Type 3 narcissus suppressant and blood snake flower produced abnormal toxicity that can exterminate magical plant seeds but cannot cause any damage to adult magical plants, while also causing the plant essence of magical plants to mutate.]
[The pathway producing special toxicity is...]
Locke's mouth twitched. So the core combination of blood snake flower and Type 3 narcissus suppressant was wrong from the start.
This kind of thing, even if used as a seed deactivation potion would be unqualified, because it would change the plant essence of adult magical plants, but couldn't change it directionally...
Locke thought for a mont and said, "Go to Arthas plantation and ask for another batch of resources, then change approaches. The Synthesis Cube can help quickly lock onto the correct route."
"It shouldn't take too long. At the sa ti, the Hydra backcrossing should be completed soon."
"Also, I need to go to the breeder public laboratory today." Locke said, "I also need to spend a certain amount of ti every day scanning my broliad magical plants in the three major magic mirrors."
"Although I already have so proficiency in this work, those most likely to drown are those who can swim. I can't underestimate this work because of that. Otherwise, it's easy for so accident to occur."
