Locke ignored this so-called investnt advice. After all, venture capital was too vague. He only had so much money. Better to let the high-Circle wizards do this kind of thing.
He left the public breeder laboratory and headed to Dragon Blood Gathering. First, he ca to Golden Peach Garden and negotiated relevant discounts with the rchant, purchasing 105 water beech trees at a price of 6,000 magic stones per tree.
The trader responsible for receiving Locke was also the trader who had sold him the Four Elents Ring last ti. At this mont, he was stunned for a mont, then smiled and said, "How is the Four Elents Ring from last ti working? I didn't expect you to co back so soon and place a large order of 630,000 magic stones."
At this mont, the trader even sowhat subconsciously ant to probe Locke's strength.
After all, half a month ago, Locke had made a transaction of 800,000 magic stones. Half a month later, he was here again to make a transaction of 630,000 magic stones.
Among First Circle wizards, there were very few such wealthy tycoons.
Locke nodded slightly. "It's fine. These are all things I need."
With these 105 thirty-year-old water beech trees, his Forest Sanctuary would have two hundred water beech trees.
The number of First Circle tree magical plants in his Forest Sanctuary could reach an exaggerated 221 trees.
His Forest Sanctuary could expand to over three hundred acres.
Previously at Silver Plum Garden, they had sold him water beech trees for 6,600 magic stones each. Here, each tree saved 600, which added up to quite a lot of magic stones saved for him. It was quite cost-effective.
This trader was quite willing to give him a discount.
This trader said, "That's true. My na is Bruce. As you can see, a vaporization stage wizard in botany."
Trader Bruce said, "Mr. Augustine can co to for transactions in the future. I can give generous custors like you the most favorable price here."
"I have to say, last ti when you paid 800,000 magic stones all at once, it did stun for a mont."
Locke showed a confused expression.
Trader Bruce smiled, "So wizards need so gifts, or simply delay paynt for a few days."
"Custors with capabilities like yours naturally deserve the best hospitality from our shop."
Trader Bruce thought for a mont and said, "You seem to particularly love tree-type magical plants. Inside our Golden Peach Garden, we have so luxury tree-type magical plants that we don't sell to ordinary custors. I wonder if you're interested?"
Locke asked, "Don't sell to ordinary custors?"
Trader Bruce looked left and right, then made a gesture inviting Locke to follow, then turned to indicate Locke should follow him.
The two quickly walked inside through a corridor. On one side of the corridor were golden wheat waves, and on the other were various peach-type magical plants.
Passing through Golden Peach Garden's unique peach-wheat corridor, Trader Bruce brought him to an exhibition hall that appeared more refined than the shop entrance outside.
There was also a trader here, currently serving a wizard wearing magical artifacts from head to toe.
This wizard also carried a true luxury item of Cloud Marsh Wetland on them, a magic wand worth one million magic stones.
Locke recognized it. The wand's na was precisely [Million Spell Power].
That was a famous luxury entry-level item among First Circle magical artifacts in Cloud Marsh Wetland, a single wand worth one million magic stones.
One should know that ordinary First Circle magic wands only cost around 50,000 magic stones.
But this thing was twenty tis that of an ordinary practical magic wand!
Although the materials used were indeed good, and the craftsmanship was the work of master-level alchemists, to say these things alone could make the price increase twentyfold was unrealistic.
The real reason was only that this magic wand was very, very expensive. Plus the shop alliance promoting consurism and high-end luxury behind it, causing this wand's premium to be very high.
It could be said that Locke, as a First Circle wizard with over six million magic stones in hand, had no intention of purchasing such true luxury items at all.
Of course, these luxury items couldn't be said to be useless. Many special occasions still required these things to maintain appearances.
Seeing this luxury wand, Locke guessed that the wizard before him should be a child of a high-Circle wizard.
In the circle of high-Circle wizards' children, they had to constantly compare face and support their parents' honor, so they needed so things to display their wealth and glory.
Locke also saw that this wizard was wearing the entry-level million-level luxury magic robe [Million Baby]!
Reportedly, it was the work of a master in the textile magic category from a famous alchemist at Bonifacius University, using special craftsmanship. Its greatest advantage wasn't powerful defense, but that it couldn't be imitated!
At a glance, one could tell that Million Baby was genuine.
Therefore, a very large market appeared in the Alchemy School's textile studies, naly, imitation luxury magic robes.
Seeing this wizard glittering with gold from head to toe, Locke was stunned for a mont. The million series magical artifacts on this person should not be limited to just these two items. It was just that there were more that he might not have the insight to recognize them all.
It seed the exhibition hall that Trader Bruce brought him to should be a place only custors who had spent a lot at Golden Peach Garden were qualified to co to.
Obviously, his two transactions within half a month made Trader Bruce believe that with his wealth, he could enter this area.
Inside the exhibition hall, that wizard wearing the million series from head to toe was stunned for a mont after seeing Locke. A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes. Obviously, he was confused about not having seen Locke before.
After all, in his small circle, everyone more or less knew each other. They shouldn't have never t even once.
This wizard nodded to Locke. "I'm Reed Thomasson. This friend, I don't think I've seen you before."
Trader Bruce suddenly used a botany magic to encrypt his voice and said to Locke, "Mr. Augustine, please don't reveal the specific details of bringing you here. This is Golden Peach Garden's VIP display area."
"According to normal procedures, one needs to complete three purchases over 800,000 within a month before we can bring custors here. The rchandise here will only be sold to those custors who truly qualify to obtain them."
"But for custors like you with taste and generosity, I believe you can be invited directly. But please don't ntion the details to other custors."
"Otherwise, I might have so trouble."
Trader Bruce looked at Locke sincerely.
Locke realized this was the First Circle botany magic [Voice of Grass and Wood], which could encrypt one's voice and required borrowing so auxiliary First Circle magical plants.
However, Trader Bruce was obviously a qualified trader. From his two transactions, he slled the scent of money on him and actually directly invited him into this exhibition hall.
Obviously, he had a keen perception for money.
Although aside from the Four Elents Ring, he carried almost no luxury items in the Cloud Marsh Wetland sense, like those million series products produced under the influence of consurism.
Locke looked at Reed Thomasson and said, "Thomasson?"
"What is the relationship between Wizard Thomasson and Mr. Reed... I once took Wizard Thomasson's course."
This young First Circle crystallization stage Wizard Reed showed a hearty smile and introduced with so pride, "That's my father."
"My grandfather is a sun ring stage wizard."
Locke nodded. No wonder this guy was so wealthy. Turned out he was a rich heir.
Sun ring wizards were still Second Circle stage, but within Second Circle stage there were four major realms. Sun ring stage wizards were already the last stage of Second Circle stage.
Even in the Cloud Marsh Lands, they enjoyed a certain social status, incomparable to those young formal wizards just starting out.
The other party's father and grandfather were both Second Circle wizards, and his grandfather was also a sun ring stage wizard, showing his distinguished status.
The other party should also be the most talented person in their family, naturally enjoying unlimited favor.
For sun ring wizards, one million magic stones was just a small matter.
That was a wizard only one step away from Third Circle wizard!
Third Circle wizards in Cloud Marsh Wetland were already quasi-high-level. Throne wizards were already high-level.
Reed Thomasson hesitated for a mont and said, "Then this gentleman must be Locke Augustine, right? This isn't hard to guess. You're an Origin Academy researcher and took my father's course."
"Moreover, you recently earned 6.5 million magic stones during True Love Festival. My father has ntioned you."
Trader Bruce looked at Locke in surprise, while inwardly feeling extrely fortunate that he had just made the right choice to invite Locke into this exhibition hall.
His gaze toward Locke beca even more enthusiastic, and his back unconsciously bent slightly.
Reed Thomasson extended his left hand to Locke. "Make friends, how about it? You and I are both... from that Academic Committee faction."
Locke originally wanted to refuse, but hearing this, he was stunned instead.
The other party was obviously hinting that they were both likely dragon blood wizards.
Then the Thomasson wizard family should all be mbers of that secret society.
Locke reached out and shook hands.
Reed Thomasson showed a smile, then said, "Very glad to et you, this newly famous person."
"Next ti I have a dragon blood wizard third-generation gathering, perhaps we can go together."
Locke was stunned for a mont and withdrew his hand. Was he being invited into the small circle gathering of Golden Crown Mountain's Academic Committee's third generation?
Obviously, part of the reason was that he had the Immortal Dragon Scale, but for a long ti before, no one had co to invite him.
So the Immortal Dragon Scale was just a necessary condition, but what truly allowed him to cross this threshold was the enormous wealth he gained during True Love Festival, and the talent it represented behind it.
These made the Academic Committee third-generation mber before him think it was worthwhile to invite him.
Locke and him added each other as water hyacinth system friends.
Then Reed Thomasson left this exhibition hall with his trader.
Trader Bruce beca even more respectful toward Locke. "I didn't expect even Wizard Reed Thomasson to have heard of you."
"He's the descendant of a sun ring wizard."
"Wizard Locke, you seem particularly fond of tree-type magical plants. Here we have many luxury magical plants with powerful strength." Trader Bruce keenly captured the difference between Locke's and Wizard Reed's needs.
Wizard Reed wanted items that could display his identity as a sun ring wizard's descendant, while Locke wanted practicality.
Therefore, Trader Bruce was afraid Locke would misunderstand and quickly explained, "In Golden Peach Garden's hidden exhibition hall, there are two types of luxury magical plants. One type is extrely rare and can display a wizard's identity as luxury items, which is the million series magical plants."
"The other is those that are rare and indeed difficult to cultivate, even their growing environnts have disappeared due to changes in the tis. Currently, there's only existing stock with no new additions... magical plants with powerful strength."
Trader Bruce pointed to a Fire Eye Viewing Peach before them, "This is a very rare peach tree magical plant with special pupil technique-like magic. Because its growing environnt requires the flas of an extinct magical creature, currently only existing stock remains. There probably won't be any new magical plants."
"Without the flas of that magical creature called [Rex Firebird], this magical plant's seeds cannot germinate, and the fruits it produces have no seeds. The specific chanism is unclear, because currently, not even seeds of Fire Eye Viewing Peach have been passed down. Existing Fire Eye Viewing Peaches are all mature specins from the past that have been transplanted to various places."
Locke nodded slightly. He had seen this magical plant in Witch Yekaterina's castle. Probably precisely because of its rarity, it was planted by Witch Yekaterina.
Trader Bruce said, "Fire Eye Viewing Peach can make the observer's eyes burn with muddy fire, with powerful might. If the custor hasn't made large purchases at Golden Peach Garden, our shop's traders won't trade this magical plant that can symbolize both identity and power to them."
"Fire Eye Viewing Peach has an evil force hidden within it that enemies will find difficult to handle."
Locke looked at several other peach-type magical plants nearby. After all, the spell model of Peach Bow Thorn Arrows might conflict with Fire Eye Viewing Peach.
The spell model of Peach Bow Thorn Arrows was magic with particularly high spiritual requirents that would connect with special spiritual existences, while Fire Eye Viewing Peach at the spiritual level carried an evil nature.
Locke looked at one of the peach trees, and his eyes imdiately brightened slightly. One peach tree's magical pressure was so strong it almost reached First Circle limit, aning it was naturally a First Circle limit magical pressure level magical plant.
Its trunk was gnarled like the vast earth, its branches and leaves erald green like clear jade, the branches were golden-red in color, emitting brilliant light like a palace.
Bruce followed Locke's gaze to that peach tree and imdiately said, "Mr. Augustine, you have excellent vision."
"That is Golden Palace Legacy Branch."
"Very rare. Although it can't be said to be actually extinct, its growing environnt is special. It needs to be in the core of a fire elental world, with a Second Circle creature phoenix as a symbiotic magical beast, to grow normally. Moreover, it needs a fire elental emperor's elental heavy core to bear one fruit with seeds."
Locke looked at Trader Bruce in surprise, because Golden Palace Legacy Branch as a First Circle magical plant not only didn't help the phoenix's environnt, but instead needed the Second Circle creature phoenix to provide it with a growing environnt...
Completely backwards.
Moreover, its growing environnt was so harsh that even Locke found it a bit shocking.
Worthy of being a luxury item among magical plants.
But correspondingly, it had powerful strength and possessed the spirituality of fire elental emperors and phoenixes.
Fire elental emperors were generally First Circle crystallization stage existences, even with magical pressure of 9999, reaching First Circle limit, while phoenixes were Second Circle level creatures.
Golden Palace Legacy Branch being stained with their spirituality was enough to show its own power.
Peach Bow Thorn Arrows was the key prerequisite for him to learn advanced ditation thods, so he couldn't be careless. Using so good magical plants was only natural.
Moreover, Locke had already sensed that if he used Golden Palace Legacy Branch as a supporting magical plant for learning Peach Bow Thorn Arrows, his learning speed would beco extrely fast.
The two types of advanced spirituality within Golden Palace Legacy Branch, especially the phoenix's spirituality, seed particularly compatible with Peach Bow Thorn Arrows magic. Moreover, just standing beside Golden Palace Legacy Branch, his mind actually beca incredibly stable.
Locke considered for a mont and asked, "How much does this magical plant cost?"
Trader Bruce glanced at him and said, "500,000 magic stones!"
"This is the price stipulated by the shop alliance. This cannot be discounted. Golden Palace Legacy Branch is, after all, a very rare magical plant. Because its growing environnt needs to et three requirents, and its numbers are scarce, so scarce it's as if this magical plant doesn't want its numbers to be too large."
"However..." Trader Bruce said matter-of-factly, "Golden Palace Legacy Branch's high price isn't just simply because it's rare, but also because it can assist in learning advanced ditation thods."
"For wizards, this is the most important thing!"
Locke smiled bitterly slightly. It seed his original idea of finding a bargain could be put away early.
Which formal wizard who could work as a trader here wasn't shrewd?
They knew the uses of magical plants crystal clear.
Locke thought. The price of Golden Palace Legacy Branch was 2.5 tis his Hydra magical plant. There was definitely so premium due to rarity.
But its ability to accelerate wizards' progress in advanced ditation thods, plus the hidden function of increasing his learning speed for the Peach Bow Thorn Arrows spell model, indeed matched this price.
