"Thanks to you this time, this is your well-deserved reward." After the autopsy, the Magician Lanqi handed Saine a goblet filled with a strange blue liquid and said with a smile.

This blue liquid is a special drink made by grinding and mixing plant roots collected by the Magician Lanqi in a Fire Hell World. It has a slight effect on enhancing Mental Strength.

For the Mental Strength strength of the Magician Lanqi, this drink would have no effect on him whatsoever; it was merely a pleasant-tasting beverage.

However, it still has a remarkable effect on Advanced Apprentice like Saine.

The slight increase in Mental Strength was not immediately apparent, but Saine clearly felt his energy returning.

After expressing his gratitude to the Magician Lanqi, the Formal Magician then took out the reward he had promised to Saine.

Five Magic Coin and five Academy Points were the payment that the Magician Lanqi made to Saine.

However, Saine pushed his hand forward, refusing the five Magic Coin from the Magician Lanqi.

As the Magician Lanqi showed a hint of curiosity and surprise, Saine explained, "I am extremely interested in the advanced knowledge of otherworldly creatures that you possess, Master, and I hope to gain relevant knowledge about otherworldly beings from you."

Acquiring knowledge comes at a price.

While the knowledge possessed by the Magician Lanqi may be somewhat obscure, it is certainly not at the level of something that could be taught for free.

After hearing Saine's explanation, the Magician Lanqi looked enlightened.

He then said with a smile, "You're quite clever, apprentice. I wouldn't casually pass on my two advanced knowledge of otherworldly creatures for less than ten Magic Coin."

"How about this, you don't need to pay me Magic Coin. I'll still give you these five Academy Points as usual, which is equivalent to giving you a 50% discount!" said the Magician Lanqi generously.

"Thank you, Master!" Saine said respectfully in a hurry.

Having spent over a month at the Azure Source Holy Tower Academy, Saine gained a general understanding of the academy's various aspects.

Aside from Public Classroom, advanced knowledge in related fields taught personally by Formal Magician starts at a minimum price of three Magic Coin.

However, for one-on-one tutoring, the price usually rises to five Magic Coin.

Alchemy, potion-making, Summoning Art, astrology, and other rare and obscure disciplines require...

The required Magic Coin will cost even more.

Without enough Magic Coin and Academy Points, it will indeed be very difficult to make any progress here.

No wonder the magic apprentices in the academy are always so busy and enthusiastic about carrying out academy missions.

Five points of Academy Points were casually transferred by the Magician Lanqi into Saine's emerald green medal.

This medal is both a symbol of the identity of an apprentice at the Azure Source Holy Tower and a High-Level Magic Item of considerable quality. →

Serving as a storage device for Academy Points is just one of its functions.

Having inherited a considerable amount of alchemy skills, Saine also discovered that the medals could be used for short-distance communication, recording scene information, and even coordinate positioning.

When Saine first received the Emerald Badge, he even considered taking it apart to examine it.

However, the overwhelming number of general education courses that were almost overwhelming him, as well as his planned research into certain magical knowledge, temporarily put Saine idea of dismantling the Emerald Badge on hold.

Perhaps when he has time in the future, he will spend some time and effort figuring out the secrets of this Apprentice Badge.

It's just unknown whether the Azure Source Holy Tower will notice when Saine dismantles this thing, or whether it will cause any other anomalies.

The residence of the Magician Lanqi is located on the 45th floor of the Azure Source Holy Tower.

While helping the other party dissect the specimen of that Alien Subdragon Creature, Saine had the opportunity to enter this landmark building representing the Azure Source Holy Tower.

Saine knew that Master Irene, Level-1 Magician, lived on the 76th floor of the Holy Tower, Johnny, Second-Level Magician, lived on the 278th floor of the Holy Tower.

However, Saine did not rashly disturb these two Formal Magician. Instead, he respectfully and humbly learned about otherworldly knowledge from the Magician Lanqi at his residence.

Saine studied under the Magician Lanqi for two weeks, totaling twelve lessons.

These twelve lessons certainly couldn't allow Saine to learn all the otherworldly knowledge that the Magician Lanqi possessed, but for someone who was only an apprentice, it was enough to give him a relatively mature understanding of otherworldly realms and Alien Plane.

According to the Magician Lanqi, the biggest difference between the Alien Plane and the Wizard World is that Homeland Being of the Wizard World will be passively subjected to the suppression effect of the Plane Will after they descend into the Alien Plane.

Some Knight and Mage will use this dimensional suppression effect as part of their training.

However, most Knight and Mage dislike this suppression effect.

fruit.

Because this would cause a significant reduction in one's own strength.

Especially during Plane War, the will of the hostile plane is full of malice towards the Wizard Civilization Legion. At that time, the plane suppression effect that the Wizard Civilization Legion suffers will be greater, and the difficulty of conquering the native creatures of the Alien Plane will be higher.

If one is not careful, and their own strength is suppressed, they may perish in another world.

On the contrary, the Plane Will those Alien Plane that have been occupied and conquered has been weakened to a certain extent due to the large number of their native strongmen being killed.

Therefore, even if there is still some dimensional suppression effect, it won't be very strong, making it suitable for powerful individuals in the Wizard World to travel and explore.

As for Saine's question about the nature of this dimensional suppression effect...

The Magician Lanqi did not give him a definite answer.

He simply said, "You can see it as an environmental difference, or you can see it as a special kind of force field ripple."

"The matter of the Plane Will has already touched upon a relatively advanced Truth Arcana."

"Perhaps the Dean and others, or the great Azure Source Holy Tower Master, beings at this level, know more."

"Besides what I've mentioned above, what I can tell you is that only Complete Rule Plane have Plane Will."

"Demiplane and Broken Plane do not have Plane Will. When you enter them, you will only feel the difference in environment and will not experience the suppression of the plane," said the Magician Lanqi.

The explanation from the Magician Lanqi made Saine, who had experienced the Yellow Sand World, nod as if he understood but not quite.

Then, Saine asked the Magician Lanqi another question, "Does our Wizard World also have Plane Will and dimensional suppression effects?"

In response to Saine's question, Lan Qi smiled and replied, "Of course, our Wizard World also has the Plane Will and the effect of plane suppression."

"Our Plane Will and dimensional suppression effects are even stronger!"

"Do you know why so many theoretically long-lived low-level alien creatures experience a significant reduction in lifespan after entering the Wizard World?" Lan Qi asked rhetorically.

Before Saine could answer, Lan Qi explained, "Because the environment of our Wizard World is too 'harsh' for them!"

A meaningful expression appeared on the face of the Magician Lanqi.
