Chapter 825 The Exploration of Dimensions Begins, Encoding the Void Cube and the Eye of Truth!

Locke gave a few more instructions to Witch Mason and the others, and obtained the contact information left by Wizard Droma from them. He then added the other party as a friend on the Lingzhi Magic Plant.

Locke continued to boil some Yellow-Clothed Mushrooms in the crucible, expelling the Yellow-Clothed Mushroom Essence. He then repeated the previous operation and began the primordial evolution of the Green Foxtail Grass again.

This time, the Green Foxtail Grass collapsed during the primordial evolution produced by the sixth soaking and dilution of the Yellow-Clothed Mushroom Essence.

“There is a special energy that is destroying my primordial evolution,”

Locke thought. “This has turned what should have been a simple collection of experience data into a difficult challenge. Destroying that special energy is actually quite simple. I used the archaeological spell model historical reenactment to force out that undead energy. As long as I can kill that mutated dragon in the historical reenactment, I can eliminate this special energy.”

Locke looked at the withered and dead Green Foxtail Grass in front of him. “The best dilution ratio for the yellow-skinned mushroom extract should be 1:7, with the yellow-skinned mushroom extract and white jade aloe vera.”

“Kill that mutated dragon? That’s a Sun Ring level being.”

Locke fell into deep thought.

“No. That’s not right. It’s not a Sun Ring level being, but rather it manifested as a true Sun Ring level dragon in the historical reenactment spell model.”

“If the opponent were a Sun Ring level undead, I could easily deal with it in the historical reenactment spell model. As long as I set up anti-undead magic, I could easily suppress undead creatures. But the problem is that it’s a Sun Ring level dragon. I don’t have anything that can counter dragon power.” “

So, this becomes an insurmountable obstacle. The only way is to use the golden foxtail grass for atavistic evolution.”

Locke remained calm.

“Don’t rush. Stay calm. First, we need to confirm why the green foxtail grass later turned into golden foxtail grass. Yunze Wetland has done too little research on this.”

Locke thought for a moment, then asked the Celtic team leader on the Water Hyacinth System if he knew any breeders who specialized in foxtail grass.

The Celtic leader replied to his message.

“Then you’ll have to search carefully in the border region between the Dark and Bright. The border region is now deserted, with only a handful of wizards left, so just keep an eye on the Golden Dynasty Wizarding University.”

The Celtic leader’s words were a wake-up call.

After thanking him, Locke pondered, “I can investigate which wizards in the border region have research in this area, and then try to access their materials. If I can’t, I’ll write to him and ask him directly.”

“I just don’t know what the academic atmosphere is like in the wizarding area of the border region; I wonder if they’ll even answer me.”

Locke walked to another acre of magical field, which was covered with unfinished Great Bloodwave Pineapple Wizard Shoes, or rather, Great Bloodwave Pineapples without imaginary roots.

Locke used a growth-accelerating spell to catalyze the growth of these magical plants, and then used the Flower Bloom and Wither spell to obtain a bunch of magical plant seeds from them.

Because they didn’t need imaginary roots, these unfinished Great Bloodwave Pineapples were essentially a bunch of large-scale first-ring magical plants.

The act of sacrificing these mature magical plants to obtain magical plant seeds through the cycle of blooming and withering wouldn’t cost him much effort or resources.

Soon, one hundred seeds were in his hands.

As agreed, Locke met with the witch Scarlett in the witch’s kitchen at the Dragon Blood Gathering on Golden Crown Mountain, placing one hundred seeds of the Great Bloodwave Pineapple in a fist-sized cloth bag before handing it to her.

Locke reminded Scarlett, “There’s a problem. These magical plants are different from the previous ones. Once they grow into seedlings, they need to undergo another grafting cultivation method before continuing to grow them according to the normal process. Only then can they become fully-fledged second-ring magical plants.”

Scarlett frowned. “I have many high-elf breeders with special racial talents here; they should know how to do this. But…”

Locke handed her a bottle filled with the fragrance of the Super Jaeger Dream Flower.

“This is the crucial key to entering the Shared Imaginary Root System that I researched. It already contains my magical power and has been imbued with the power of the ephemeral dream.”

“Once the lid is opened, a floral fragrance will waft out. Then your breeders can enter the dream space of this Shared Imaginary Root System. They only need to graft my pineapple seedlings with a Time-Shadow Fern in that dream space.”

“Approach grafting is just a slightly more advanced grafting cultivation method; it’s not too difficult.”

“Also, here are some materials. I’ve already compiled a copy; you can show them.”

Scarlett the Witch, only half-understanding, took the materials and a bottle of Jaeger’s Dream Flower fragrance from Locke.

Shared Imaginary Root System…

Dream Approach Grafting…

Each one sounded like a genius idea.

Scarlett the Witch said, “Then wouldn’t all the pure magic plant wizard shoes in the future be able to be grafted onto your designed shared virtual imaginary root system using this method?”

“That would indeed significantly reduce our costs,”

Scarlett the Witch said. “I see that we’ve already pre-sold over 90 pairs of wizard shoes, and we’ll soon have sold a hundred. Wizard shoes of decent quality at such a low price are indeed rare these days. Many wizards, especially those who need to travel to the void, have a strong need for wizard shoes. Before, they could make do with various odds and ends, but now with our Augustus, they have a much better option.”

Locke nodded.

“The Great Bloodwave Wizard Shoes are just the basic model. I will use them as a starting point to design something better.”

“Alright, Scarlett the Witch, that’s all for today. I will transfer the 45 million to you. If you have any questions, you can come and talk to me. Remember, this is the first business our Augustus Wizard Shoes is doing in the second-circle wizard shoe market, and there can’t be any mistakes.”

Scarlett the Witch bowed to Locke and said, “Of course, Lord Locke. I will oversee every step. I have even applied to go to the High Elf Great World for this purpose.”

“This way, we can both feel at ease.”

“Making Augustus Wizard Shoes a success is in our mutual interest. By the way, do you have any specific ideas for your second second-circle wizard shoe?”

Locke originally didn’t have any ideas, but for some reason, he suddenly remembered the golden magic cast by the mutated dragon he had seen in the historical reenactment spell model: Sephiroth’s Grip.

That solar-level great magic that reversed everything left a deep impression on him.

Moreover, he seemed to have gained a lot of inspiration from it, which suddenly surged up at this moment.

Locke said, “Hmm, I have some inspiration. The second pair of wizard shoes might be related to golden magic.”

Scarlett the witch paused, seemingly surprised that Locke’s second pair of second-ring wizard shoes would be related to golden magic.

She took out a small notebook and jotted it down with her magic quill.

“Alright. Recently, some newspaper reporters have come to interview you, and I’ll reveal a little bit about your plans. Just a little bit, of course, to whet some people’s appetites.”

Scarlett the witch looked at Locke and said, “Lord Locke, you’re already a somewhat famous wizard shoe designer. And the strangest wizard shoe designer at that.”

Locke nodded slightly. “Alright, I have other appointments today, so I’ll stop here for now.”

Locke left the Witch’s Kitchen and headed directly to a dimensional conquest service shop in Dragonblood Market.

This shop was called [Otherworldly Paradise].

Locke went inside, and the shopkeeper, a second-ring wizard wearing a felt hat, glanced at Locke. “What service do you need? Do you need to rent a void flying vehicle, or purchase a flight path? Oh, right, would you like to participate in the lottery?”

“As long as you make a purchase at our shop, you can participate in the lottery.”

The second-ring wizard took out a paper box. “It’s full of slips of paper; you can randomly draw one.”

Locke asked, “What can I draw?”

The second-ring wizard said, “Many things. The most valuable prizes are void coordinates for small planes or comet planes.”

“There are also some special void services.”

Locke shook his head.

“I’m planning a void exploration, so I’m here to buy a [Void Cube].”

The second-ring wizard’s eyes lit up immediately.

“Void Cube? That’s a big business. You’re planning to explore a medium-sized world, right?”

“Ordinary void exploration wouldn’t require such expensive equipment.”

The Void Cube is a disposable item, costing five million magic stones per use.

This was mentioned in the void exploration materials his senior brother, who had concealed his identity, had given him earlier.

A wizard couldn’t simply obtain plane coordinates and immediately assemble an exploration team, board a void flying machine, and fly there.

That’s absurd.

Void travel is extremely dangerous; who knows if the coordinates are correct, who knows the current state of that plane, who knows the current level of civilization on that plane?

Therefore, it’s necessary to purchase a Void Cube.

The Void Cube is a series of magical artifacts designed by alchemists among wizards. Its main function is to input void coordinates, and the Void Cube will fly to the target void location.

The Void Cube itself collects basic information about that plane, then returns, and then brings the information back to the wizard who sent the cube, allowing the wizard to understand the basic information of that world.

For a second-circle wizard, bringing back even a small portion of the dimensional power of that world would be enough to learn a great deal.

When sending the Void Cube out, some wizards might carry certain items with them beforehand, storing their own spells within it and releasing them upon the Void Cube’s descent into that world.

However, more and more white wizards are abandoning this practice.

This is because it could potentially destroy the civilization of that region beforehand, depleting their own civilization credits and causing a series of unnecessary economic losses.

Of course, as far as Locke knows, many dark wizards don’t mind this at all. They will infuse the cube with necromancy, sending it to that world with the necromancy to create a necromantic catastrophe in advance and construct a descent array to aid the subsequent exploration team’s arrival.

The second-circle wizard’s eyes lit up.

“What type of Void Cube do you need? There are many versions of Void Cubes. The most basic one is the Classic, which costs five million magic stones.”

“But there’s also the Cassie Mill Void Cube. This type can carry more magic. It can carry eight times the magical power, and it costs twenty million magic stones.”

The second-circle wizard turned, took a magic box from the shop shelf, and opened it. Inside was a green cube the size of a fingernail.

“This is the Dowze Void Cube. This type costs thirty million. It can influence local life forms at the moment of impact, so that when we wizards explore that plane, a group of life forms more compatible with our wizarding world will appear.”

“It’s worth mentioning that these life forms are likely to have magical talent. You know what I mean.”

Locke nodded.

“Very good. I only need a basic Void Cube. And I remember your shop allows you to use it first and pay later.”

The second-circle wizard’s face immediately turned cold.

“Pay later? That’s possible. However, it must be settled within thirty days, and it’s a credit payment. So, I need to see your Civilization Credit Points. If your Civilization Credit Points are below 950, then it won’t work.”

“Also, this is a shop of the Red Dragon Throne.”

“If you default later, then you’ll know what it means to have nowhere to escape, neither in heaven nor on earth.”

Locke was taken aback. He knew that many of his teachers’ shops were inside the Dragonblood Market, but he hadn’t expected that the wizard behind this shop was also his teacher.

Locke coughed, chanted a spell, and summoned the [Eye of Truth].

The Eye of Truth displayed his Civilization Credit Points.

The second-circle wizard, seeing the 1000 Civilization Credit Points, looked much better.

It was rare for a second-circle wizard to have such a perfect 1000 points.

This meant that Locke was either a very trustworthy second-circle wizard or a wizard very adept at maintaining his Civilization Credit Points.

At least it proved that Locke wasn’t a wizard trying to get something for nothing.

The second-ring wizard shopkeeper noted down Locke’s Eye of Truth number, a unique number corresponding to the Eye of Truth summoned by each wizard.

A wizard can only possess one such number in their lifetime.

He said, “Alright then, sign an agreement, and you can take away a basic Void Cube. Remember to return it within thirty days. Otherwise, you will face severe penalties for breach of contract.”

He looked at Locke suspiciously and emphasized again, “This is the Red Dragon Throne shop. Don’t even think about finding a renegade; I’ve already memorized the corresponding Eye of Truth code for your Eye of Truth.”
