Three Calamities, Pandora Matriarch, Civilization War
On the vast blue sea.
As the ship cut through the waves, through conversation with the butler, A Fu, Levi learned that this wizard ship was called the "Moon Boat," a coming-of-age gift from Dinos 'Dinos father, Leon.
This is a small, civilian-oriented, low-level wizard ship developed by the Seven Waters Tower, specifically designed for use by low-level wizard organizations in the Outer Ring Region that lack funds. However, the price of one ship is still as high as 30,000 Great Stone...
Forgive Levi for being naive and unsophisticated.
"Damn it, those damn capitalists."
Levi was speechless.
Thirty Great Stone! I've been struggling in this Wizard World for over a decade, working myself to the bone, being hardworking and frugal, and all I've earned so far is about twenty Great Stone.
Moreover, Levi himself is a very wealthy First-Circle Wizard, and many newly promoted Second-Ring Wizard may not be as rich as Levi.
And Dinos, this rich second-generation, was actually just an adult gift.
Damn it, I never imagined the gap between rich and poor in the Wizard World was so huge.
"Both are Third Ring organizations, and both are located in the Outer Ring Region. However, the Gray-White Tower, which has just advanced to the Third Ring, is far inferior to the Josta Wizard Family, an established third -Third Ring. Even Whale Song Lonely Island is nothing compared to the Jostar Family."
Levi Heart Sense.
In general, due to the abundance of resources on the Loess Continent, the Seventh District is one of the most powerful regions in the Endless Overseas Ring Sea, ranking among the top five in terms of overall strength.
The Jostar Family, to which Dinos belongs, is one of the three great families of the Yellow Earth Continent. Its profound heritage is unmatched by any wizarding organization in the Ninth District.
Having just survived a major battle, Dinos and his butler were busy directing the survivors to clean up the mess and tidy the deck. Various magic tricks specifically designed for cleaning and tidying were on display, and technicians were checking the Moon Boat for any damage.
Dinos looked at the mess and sighed inwardly, "Uncle Fu, what are the losses this time?"
Butler Ford whispered, "Young Master, forty-two sailors were killed, including thirty mortals and twelve Wizard Apprentice. There are also fifty-seven wounded. Apart from the casualties, the property damage is not much. Thanks to Lord Levi Wei, who killed the Black Wizard leader in time, we have recovered a lot of losses."
Dinos's face was icy. "Damn Black Wizard, when I set sail, I swore to these sailors that I would lead them back safely and reunite them with their wives, children, and parents. Now I, Dinos, have broken my promise. Uncle Fu, when we get back, prepare compensation for the families of these victims. If they have no families, give these poor souls a proper burial. The Jostar Family will always pay its debts."
"Young Master, there's no need to blame yourself. There were too many unexpected events and uncontrollable factors on this journey. Who could have imagined that we would encounter such a rare ' Great Wind Disaster '?" Ford sighed.
Levi's heart stirred.
"Great Wind Disaster? No wonder they didn't take the safe routes but instead went through this dangerous, uninhabited sea."
The so-called "Great Wind Disaster" is one of the three major natural disasters of the Endless Sea, along with the "Sea Beast Tide" and the "Sea Mirage".
Needless to say, Sea Beast Tide are something that occur on a small scale every now and then, and every five hundred years there is a massive tide that sweeps across the Endless Sea. Levi just experienced one. In general, although Sea Beast Tide Sea Beast Tide a wide area and occur frequently, the mortality rate is not very high because the wizards have figured out their patterns and made preparations in advance.
The Great Wind Disaster is a super storm that suddenly appears in various parts of the Endless Sea. This storm appears without any warning, randomly and anywhere. Sometimes it may not appear even once in a hundred years in the entire Endless Sea, and sometimes it can appear continuously. In short, it has no pattern.
According to the Tower of Stars, the Great Wind Disaster can be divided into nine levels based on its degree of danger. Even the weakest level one Great Wind Disaster is far more dangerous than a storm on a mortal sea. If the Jostar Family hadn't been traveling on a wizard's ship, their mortal ship would have been destroyed by the storm long ago.
The danger of Great Wind Disaster increases dramatically starting from level three. Even Formal Wizard could have their magical defenses torn apart by the terrifying storm if they were accidentally caught in Great Wind Disaster, turning them into a bloody mist.
However, if it is the legendary highest level nine Great Wind Disaster, apart from High-Rank Wizard, other wizards who fall into it will basically have no chance of survival. This is because High-Rank Wizard have Origin Soul, which can be used to escape at any Origin Soul. But even so, if they stay in the area of the level nine Great Wind Disaster for a long time, the Origin Soul of the High-Rank Wizard will be blown out and directly scattered.
Therefore, even the most powerful wizards called it Calamity.
The causes of the Great Wind Disaster are widely debated, and there is currently no consensus in the Wizard World. Some say it was caused by the convergence and mutation of the [Land of Divine Wind] and the [Azure Realm] where the Storm School is located. Others say it was caused by the [Storm Emperor] of the Astral Realm. Still others say it came from other Dread Realm or multiple dimensions.
The final Calamity, the Sea Mirage, is the most mysterious and eerie of all, because the Wizard Civilization has very little research on it at present. Sea Mirage are the least frequent natural disasters, a phenomenon that even wizards cannot fully explain. Sea Mirage appearance is completely unpredictable and without any discernible pattern.
Sometimes, it appears suddenly on the sea as a "Sea Ghost Market," filled with all sorts of strange and unusual things.
Sometimes it is a magnificent Ancient Temple, filled with bizarre and indescribable Divine Statue gods that are impossible to look at directly.
Or perhaps it's a lost "Civilized City," where one can almost see an unknown civilization with a style completely different from the Wizard Civilization.
In short, Sea Mirage take on all sorts of bizarre and fantastical forms, making them difficult to understand.
In any case, very few wizards who accidentally enter the mirage come out alive. From the accounts of those who manage to escape, it is known that within the Sea Mirage, a wizard's mental power seems to be suppressed by an extremely powerful and mysterious mental force, causing their spellcasting to become incredibly sluggish and the power of their spells to be reduced by one level compared to normal. In other words, even if you are Second-Ring Wizard, you will only have the combat power of First Ring wizard if you enter the Sea Mirage.
Because Sea Mirage occur very rarely, they have appeared only a handful of times in the history of the Tower of Stars. Therefore, few Wizard School have specifically researched this phenomenon.
To date, the most in-depth research on Sea Mirage comes from a small, emerging Wizard School: the Dream School.
They believe that Sea Mirage may be a projection of some supreme Supreme Will beyond the understanding of wizards onto the Endless Sea, forming a strange space between illusion and reality, truth and fabrication.
This "Supreme Will" might be an unimaginably powerful civilization, even more powerful than the Wizard Civilization, or it might be a "supreme being" of a higher dimension, even more powerful than the Astral Realm gods. Perhaps this being merely took a nap at home and had a dream, and this "Sea Mirage" formed invisibly in the Endless Sea.
Of course, this argument has been severely criticized by many Traditional School of shamans, who believe that the Dream School has a tendency to betray the Land of the Faithless, and that such speculation is too idealistic and nihilistic.
Thinking of this, Levi couldn't help but sigh, "Even Legendary Wizard cannot see through many of the truths and essences of this world. The pursuit of truth is endless."
Although the Wizard Civilization was powerful, Levi knew an old saying, "Beyond the mountains, there are more mountains; beyond the buildings, there are more buildings."
Only by standing tall can one see far. Therefore, my Wizard's Path is long and arduous.
Just as Levi was worrying unnecessarily, Dinos had finished preparing his ships and had his servants prepare a banquet.
"Lord Levi, please follow me," Ford said.
Levi followed the old butler to the luxurious banquet hall located on the top of the ship.
A variety of delicacies were displayed on the long table.
At the other end of the long table, Dinos looked tired, but still smiled and said, "Thank you again for saving my life, Lord Levi. Our Jostar Family has a family oath: We must repay kindness and debts! This is our family motto and our business philosophy. Relying on our good reputation, the Jostar Family has been able to grow and thrive from our ancestor Rhine Jostar to where we are today."
"Wait...you just said who your ancestors were?" Levi suddenly interrupted.
"Rhine Jostar," Dinos said proudly.
"Have you heard of Lionheart Knight Rhine?" Levi asked.
"It is indeed our ancestor," Dinos suddenly said excitedly. "You have also heard of our ancestor?"
"Of course, Lionheart Knight Rhine, the famous Legendary Knight, how could I not have heard of him?" Levi said. Although he had heard of the Jostar Family from Manla, he never expected that Lionheart Knight Rhine was actually the ancestor of the Jostar Family. He thought that Lionheart Knight had fallen in the mortal world. Now it seems that this Legendary Knight has also entered the Azure Realm.
Lionheart Knight, Hundred Flower Knight, and two of the seven Legendary Knight of the Shining Tavern are in the Azure Realm, while Golden Knight Gerrick, judging from Mu Di's description, should have perished completely in the sea on Mortal World.
In addition, Blood Knight Brad is the old man Anderson, who is himself a Secondary Blood Clan.
So far, the whereabouts of the Black Knight Blake, the Thousand-Faced Knight Nameless, and the Snowflake Knight Freier are still unknown to Levi.
Of course, besides these seven Legendary Knight, there are other Legendary Knight, but these seven are the most widely known in the Seven Kingdoms. These seven may not be the strongest, but they all have famous Legendary Realm stories and extremely distinctive personal characteristics. Through the artistic embellishment and exaggeration of bards, they eventually became the Seven Legends Knight.
"My ancestor has been gone for hundreds of years. I thought he had been forgotten by the Mortal World. I didn't expect that everyone still remembers him." Dinos couldn't help but admire his ancestor even more.
Once the topic of Legendary Knight came up, Dinos would start talking nonstop, and Levi learned the true story of the Lionheart Knight from Dinos.
After the Legendary Realm of Lionheart Knight, he also entered the Wizard World through some means. However, Lionheart Knight did not have the talent of a wizard, but he was determined to make a name for himself in the Wizard World and ensure that his family would live on forever.
So, relying on his Legendary Knight, he married a Wizard Apprentice and they successfully had a son with a tri-elemental affinity for wizardry. The Lionheart Knight devoted himself entirely to earning a living in this Wizard World as Legendary Knight, outwitting and outfighting wizards who wielded magic, battling sea monsters in the Endless Sea, and selling materials to earn Great Stone, all to pave the way for his son's future. Ultimately, the Lionheart Knight's son successfully became Formal Wizard and joined a Second-Ring Wizard organization on the Yellow Earth Continent —undoubtedly a good start.
What followed was a thrilling history of a wizarding family's struggle, enough to fill a book on its own. Hundreds of years passed, and even the Legendary Knight Rhine had long since turned to dust. But the wizarding family he, a mere mortal, had built had taken root and flourished in the Wizard World, growing stronger and stronger until it became the "Golden Lion" family, one of the three great families of the Yellow Earth Continent. The entire family was in a very favorable situation.
"I knew it. Legendary Knight can make a name for himself anywhere. Mortal World who can cultivate the Knight's Breathing Technique to the Legendary Realm is no ordinary person." Levi Wei also had great respect for the Lionheart Knight.
After all, he and the Lionheart Knight had some connection. In his Storage Bag was the Lionheart Knight's weapon, the Lion King's Pride, which the Lionheart Knight used in his mortal days. He didn't know how the Lionheart Knight's weapon ended up with Duke Blue Feather.
At the dinner, Levi barely ate anything, while Dinos talked on and on about the Legendary Realm stories of his ancestors, all of which his father had told him.
Finally, after the banquet, Dinos realized he had been somewhat out of line and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I really wanted to become Legendary Knight."
"The Lionheart Knight was truly remarkable. Whenever I was in the Shining Tavern in the mortal realm, I would always order a Lion King Spirit." Recalling his years of struggle in the mortal world, Levi couldn't help but sigh at how quickly time had passed.
"I've never been to the mortal realm. I really want to go, but I also know that with my status as a wizard, it's not really appropriate for me to go there," Dinos said helplessly.
After a satisfying meal, Levi felt it was time to leave. He coughed and said, "Lord Dinos, I should disembark as well. I have urgent business to attend to."
"Alright, Uncle Fu, bring over the gift." Dinos understood and immediately said.
Ford the Ford smiled slightly, then took out a small Storage Bag.
"Lord Levi Wei, this is a small token of our Jostar Family's gratitude. We are deeply grateful for your help. It is a small gift but carries great sentiment. We will never forget your kindness. If you ever visit Yellow Earth Island in the future, please be sure to visit our Jostar Family Jostar Family."
Levi took the Storage Bag and found it contained a pile of Great Stone, a full three thousand! "I won't stand on ceremony." Levi didn't feign reluctance; his act of helping was precisely for this reason.
It wasn't that Levi was greedy; he was simply too poor.
Three thousand Great Stone, not bad. That's equivalent to three top-quality First Ring witch artifacts.
Dinos is a very generous young man.
However, he had saved her life. To this rich second-generation heir, her life was definitely worth more than three thousand Great Stone.
After all, this Moon Boat alone cost a full 30,000 Great Stone. If it weren't for Levi, the Jostar Family would have lost a wizard ship.
Levi's figure leaped into the sea, Leviathan caught him, and then the figures of the man and the whale quickly disappeared on the turbulent sea.
On deck, Dinos said, "This Levi seems to be a Legendary Knight."
Ford said, "Young Master, how about we invite this man into the family and make him a family retainer? You can have him guide you to become Legendary Knight."
Dinos shook his head. "He clearly has other ambitions. I believe that with my abilities, I can definitely become Legendary Knight."
The Moon Boat sails slowly, cutting through the waves.
Early the next morning.
After traveling all night, Leviathan and Levi rested on the sea, moving slowly forward. Leviathan patted its belly with its flippers, while Levi practiced Breathing Technique on its back.
As he swam, Levi suddenly sensed a strange and powerful aura lurking in the sea ahead through his Black Serpent's Tongue. His Spider Sense also kept issuing warnings. Judging from the intensity of the warnings, Levi felt that it was probably Second Ring being. In this uninhabited sea area, it was highly likely to be Second Ring sea beast.
"Leviathan, wait for me here. Don't wander off. I'll be right back."
Levi's expression shifted slightly before he spoke.
With his current strength, he doesn't have absolute confidence to confront Second Ring being. However, he can fly, and he plans to fly into the sky to see what type of Second Ring sea beast is ahead. If it's a hybrid Dragonkind, he can tame it when he has the strength in the future. Then, for a long time, he shouldn't need to worry about the Secret Medicine for Dragonkind -type Breathing Technique like Golden Snake and Red Lotus.
Leviathan nodded after listening and obediently stayed where he was, not daring to move.
Levi's Blood Wing appeared, and then he flapped his wings and soared into the sky. He reached a height of a thousand meters and then slowly flew forward.
Finally, Levi felt himself getting closer and closer to that behemoth. He tried his best to hide his aura, holding his breath and concentrating. The perception of Second Ring being must be very strong. Levi felt that even if he was in the sky, the other party might still be able to sense him.
However, he was fairly certain that the other party was Second Ring sea beast, and among Second Ring sea beasts, very few could fly, which was why Levi dared to come here to investigate.
Sure enough, when Levi looked down at the sea below, he saw a giant sea beast resembling a crocodile lazily sunbathing on a small island that jutted out of the sea. All around the island were various kinds of skeletons, including First Ring sea beasts, and even some fragments of First-Circle Wizard' bones and relics, as well as Storage Bag and the like. Levi saw all of these.
"Second Ring Sea Beast - Sea Hag Dragon Crocodile!"
"Hahaha, it really is a hybrid Dragonkind. We've made a fortune this time."
Levi was somewhat excited.
This Sea Hag Dragon Crocodile is the Second Ring hybrid Dragonkind that Levi has been dreaming of.
Adults can reach 30 meters in length. As a crocodile-like sea beast, it is even larger than the Dragon King Whale. Its body is covered with scales that are comparable to Second Ring defensive spells, making it extremely hard. It also possesses a variety of powerful Second Ring Spell-like Abilities abilities. In addition, the Sea Hag Dragon Crocodile has an extremely powerful bite force, which can even tear apart the Second Ring defensive Art Power of some wizards.
Therefore, in this sea area, such sea creatures are definitely overlords, apex predators in the food chain.
"What a pity, I'm probably no match for it now. I'll come back and take you home after I reach the twelfth level of my Golden Serpent Breathing Technique, or when I advance to the Second-Ring Wizard. Then you can take Leviathan's place and make that kid Leviathan retire sooner." Levi looked at the giant crocodile and left helplessly.
He was just assessing the situation; he certainly wasn't arrogant enough to attack Second Ring sea monster. To survive long in the Wizard World, one should never think about challenging opponents of a higher level—it's dangerous. You might succeed once, but one day you'll fail. A master of strategic maneuvering, Levi preferred a saturation-style approach: when he strikes, it's a complete and utter crushing victory. This was the only safe way.
Meanwhile, the Sea Hag Dragon Crocodile on the reef, with its mouth wide open, lazily watched Levi leave like a tiny insect, its eyes filled with indifference and superiority.
Many wizards tried to take it by surprise, but they all perished in its Abyss Maw. After all, it was no ordinary Second Ring sea monster; it was a hybrid Dragonkind.
Just recently, a Second-Ring Wizard from Eighth District came looking for trouble, only to be utterly defeated and forced to flee in disarray. Without a doubt, it is the true master of this sea!
Gustav thought to himself. Yes, this Sea Hag Dragon Crocodile had its own name, Gustav! It was a name deeply ingrained in its bloodline, as if it were born to be called Gustav.
It possesses wisdom and power far surpassing its kind, and is by no means comparable to an ordinary Second-Ring Wizard. Anyone who underestimates it, Gustav, will pay the price! On the other hand, Levi marked the coordinates of this place on the sea chart, and he also stored the aura of the Sea Hag Dragon Crocodile in the Black Serpent's Tongue. When Levi has the strength, he will come to capture it and tame it.
These Second Ring sea beasts are usually lord-level creatures of a certain sea area, so they have a strong sense of territory and generally won't wander off, otherwise they will be attacked by other Second Ring sea beasts. Therefore, Levi is not worried about not being able to find this guy.
Judging from the condition of that nest, this Sea Hag Dragon Crocodile has made this place its home and has lived here for over a hundred years.
Back with Leviathan, Levi instructed Leviathan to take a longer route, avoiding the waters inhabited by the Sea Hag Dragon Crocodile.
It was the end of the Month of the North Wind in the year 1032 of the Holy Radiance Calendar.
Levi finally arrived at the Eighth District.
According to Levi's understanding, the situation in Eighth District is not much different from that in Ninth District, with two Third-Ring Wizard organizations and more than a dozen Second-Ring Wizard organizations.
Among them, the Potion Makers' Association that Levi was going to was a Third-Ring Wizard organization called the Hot Wind Harbor Wizard Alliance.
The Hot Wind Harbor Wizard Alliance is the largest wizarding organization in Eighth District, boasting two Third-Ring Wizard. One is the alliance's Alliance Master, Flame Master Kraul, and the other is Green Forest Witch Laura. This Green Forest Witch is also the president of the Eighth District Potion Makers' Association, a senior Second-Ring Potion Maker. It is said that the two are married, but for some unknown reason, their relationship is not harmonious...
The wizarding factions within the Hot Wind Harbor organization are quite diverse. The Alliance Master, Flame Master, belongs to the Combustion Faction, while the deputy Alliance Master Green Forest Witch, belongs to the Life Faction.
Before Levi came, he naturally did his homework. According to the information he obtained, this Green Forest Witch was relatively easy to deal with. Moreover, his teacher, Mai Lin, had also asked someone to speak to the Green Forest Witch earlier. Presumably, the Witch wouldn't be difficult to deal with, so the apothecary certification should be fine.
Moreover, to avoid attracting attention, Levi didn't plan to refine those precious First Ring potions for certification. He just planned to refine a simple First Ring Red Potion, as long as it passed the test. He only needed to register as a pharmacist to sell the potion.
Hot Wind Harbor is located on Ocean Current Island, a large island. The Wizarding Organization's headquarters is situated in a Silent Harbor surrounded by mountains on three sides of the island.
When they were still some distance from Hot Wind Harbor, Levi disembarked from the Dragon King Whale and left it to wait for Dragon King Whale in a deep abyss. He then used the Flying Fish Robe's innate First Ring flight spell, Flying Fish Leaping the Sea, to begin a long-distance gliding voyage over the sea.
Then he boarded the Azure Boat, which was just about to arrive at the port. On the Azure Boat, besides Levi, there were many other people. Levi sensed them briefly and saw that there were three Formal Wizard, all wearing the robes of the Alliance. In addition, there were many Wizard Apprentice and some mortals.
These mortals were all promising wizards that the Hot Wind Alliance had found during this period. Most of them were children, curiously and timidly looking at the magnificent wizard city in front of them: Hot Wind City.
Seeing them, Levi couldn't help but recall how he first entered the Wizard World. Time had passed, and he was no longer the novice mortal he once was; he could now be considered a fledgling wizard.
"Excellent! We've found another promising candidate with affinity for both water and fire elements. Lord Kraul will surely be very happy." A Formal Wizard glanced at the unfamiliar wizard Levi who had just boarded the ship, then looked away and said with a smile.
"That's right. With dual elemental affinity, barring any unforeseen circumstances, becoming Second-Ring Wizard is no problem, and Third Ring isn't out of the question either," another Formal Wizard said.
When Levi heard them discussing the young wizard with affinity for both water and fire, he couldn't help but think of Gaglie from Whale Song Lonely Island. He wondered if that kid had died during the great calamity on Whale Song Lonely Island.
Since that incident, Whale Song Lonely Island has closed itself off from the world, keeping a very low profile and never causing trouble again or contacting the outside world. Therefore, Levi knows very little about the situation of Whale Song Lonely Island.
On this ship, the prospective dual-elemental affinity candidate was a silver-haired girl named Ciri. Like Levi, she also came from the Emerald Kingdom. In a way, they were fellow countrymen. Ciri looked to be only a teenager, with timid eyes, and appeared extremely unnatural among the several Formal Wizard.
Levi closed his eyes in deep thought, ignoring these matters that were none of his concern, and waited for the ship to dock.
"Judging from your appearance, you're probably not from Hot Wind Harbor, are you?"
A Formal Wizard suddenly appeared beside Levi and said with a smile.
Levi opened his eyes. The mental energy fluctuations of this Formal Wizard were similar to his own, which was the level of an ordinary First-Circle Wizard.
"That's right, I'm here to get certified as a pharmacist," Levi said, there was no point in hiding it.
"I see. No wonder you look unfamiliar. I didn't expect you to be a pharmacist who has come from afar."
Upon hearing that Levi was an apothecary, the First-Circle Wizard immediately greeted him warmly, "My name is Doge, First-Circle Wizard from Hot Wind Harbor, and also a First Ring Artifact Forging maker."
Levi glanced at Doge. This was the first time he had met Artifact Forging. He had heard that Hot Wind Harbor was like his own Black Fire Island because it was filled with fiery lands.
These fiery grounds are ideal for Potion Making and crafting weapons, so many pharmacists and Artifact Forging from the surrounding districts have gathered here. This is why Hot Wind Harbor was able to rise rapidly within two hundred years and form a powerful alliance of Third-Ring Wizard organizations.
Levi only realized after he came out that even in the Outer Ring Region, the Ninth District was a relatively backward area, lacking both high-end and low-end combat power.
With nothing else to do, Dog chatted with Levi on the ship, even implying that Levi should join Kraul's ranks, saying that organizations like the Grey Tower had no future. This left Levi feeling helpless, and he politely declined Dog's invitation. Dog wasn't angry, though; in fact, most wizards were quite good-natured, and in this world, being gentle made it easier to survive.
After a brief conversation, Levi and Doge became somewhat acquainted. Upon arriving in port, Doge enthusiastically told Levi the location of the Potion Makers' Association, and then left with his apprentices.
Levi stood rooted to the spot, gazing upon the seaside port city. Here, mortals and wizards mingled, much like the Yellow Earth Continent. On the port's high ground stood two towering Wizard Tower, one entirely charred black, carved with flame patterns, resembling a volcano about to erupt—that was the Wizard Tower of the Flame Master, Kraul, the Flame Tower.
Another distant, white tower, covered in all sorts of vines, lies hidden among towering mountains—this is Levi's destination: the Green Forest Tower.
"I hope everything goes well." With the previous setbacks in Teacher Mai Lin's pharmacist certification process, Levi was on guard and quickly headed towards the Green Forest Tower.
Green Forest Tower.
Levi arrived here weary from his journey, and he stopped in his tracks as he looked at the two guards outside the tower.
The two guards were tall. One guard had four hairy white arms and held Mithril greatsword in his hand; the other guard had a human upper body and a scaly body like a giant snake, coiled on the ground.
Levi almost thought he had stumbled into the snake demon's Cave Residence from the Calabash Brothers cartoon.
"Bloodline-modified wizard... This is too ugly, I'm not even as good-looking as him." Levi thought to himself.
Judging from the fluctuations of spiritual energy they exude, these two guards appear to be First-Circle Wizard of the School of Life. The fact that they are here as gatekeepers demonstrates the power of the Green Forest Witch.
Upon seeing Levi's arrival, the human-faced, snake-bodied bloodline-modified wizard coldly asked, "What brings you here, sir?"
Levi quickly replied, "I am Levi, Formal Wizard from the Gray-White Tower in Ninth District. I have come to participate in the registration of apothecary certification. Please inform the guild master."
After Levi finished speaking, he took out twenty Great Stone and gave ten stones to each of the two guards.
The two guards exchanged glances and silently accepted the Great Stone.
The sorcerer with a human face and a snake's body said, "Come with me."
Levi quickly expressed his gratitude and followed behind the snake-bodied man.
"The bloodline modification wizard is even more inhuman than me, he replaced my leg right away..." Levi thought to himself.
Not long after, Levi arrived inside the Green Forest Tower.
As soon as he entered, it felt like he had entered a botanical garden, with all kinds of colorful plants, flowers, birds, fish and insects.
The Wizard Apprentice were busy at work, and occasionally strange creatures could be seen in the small, transparent cubicles, some sleeping, some roaring, some pounding on the glass. There was even a humanoid creature with a dog's head, three meters tall, with long, flowing hair and wearing a short skirt, who saw Levi and called out with an extremely hoarse, eerie laugh, "Big brother..."
"Grass."
Levi was startled and speechless. He kept his eyes straight ahead and followed the snake-bodied wizard in an elevator made of vines to the top floor of the Green Forest Tower, where he could overlook the entire Hot Wind Harbor.
On the top floor, a tall, slender witch in green robes, who seemed to be at least two meters tall, with a graceful figure and an ethereal air, stood at the window gazing into the distance.
"Your Grace, this is Lord Levi from the Gray-White Tower. He wishes to register as a pharmacist." The snake-bodied man finished speaking and stepped back.
Levi looked slightly flustered and nervous before saying, "Thank you for your trouble, Witch."
Faced with a strange Third-Ring Wizard, Levi was naturally extremely nervous. The mere invisible spiritual fluctuations emanating from the other party made Levi feel as if he were in the midst of an endless tidal wave.
What Levi didn't expect was that this Green Forest Witch wasn't human, but a genuine Elven Race! Her pointed ears, tall figure, exquisite face, and green hair cascading down her back like willow leaves proved that she was a Green Elves Elven Race. Although Levi had never seen Green Elves before, Levi was extremely familiar with the potions named after their race.
Levi began refining this potion during his apprenticeship and continues to refine and use it now that he is a wizard.
That is the Green Elf's Tears, a potion that increases the maximum amount of Art Power.
One of the three basic potions for wizards, the other two being Blood Elf's Lament and Blue Elf's Leap.
Of course, Green Elf's Tears is a general term for this series of potions, including apprentice-level low-level potions and wizard-level First Ring potions. Levi simply refers to them as Green Potion.
As Long-Lived Species similar to the Blood Clan, Levi wasn't sure how long this young, beautiful, and tall witch in front of him had actually lived. It was possible that even the first Tower Master Salman, would have to call her "Grandma"...
"I already know about your situation from Mai Lin. Please wait in Hot Wind Harbor for three days. The other two First-Ring Potion Maker are participating in the certification have not yet arrived. Once everyone is here, the certification assessment can begin." The Green Forest Witch said calmly, her eyes deep, and Levi could see the traces of a long time in them.
"Yes, Lady Lola."
Levi nodded and left the Green Forest Tower, intending to find a place to stay for three days.
After leaving, Levi found a small hotel and settled in, finally feeling relieved.
This is a true powerhouse, and he puts considerable pressure on Levi.
The Green Forest Witch is likely much stronger than the Tower Master, a wizard who has just entered the Third Ring. Of course, it's also possible that the Tower Master's comical appearance diminishes his authority and imposing presence as Third Ring wizard.
Aside from the fact that elves have extremely difficult reproductive abilities and are very few in number, they far surpass humans in every other aspect.
Their lifespan, three times that of humans, allows even those with the innate talent of the Child of Chaos to advance to Formal Wizard over time through accumulated experience. What's most infuriating is that Elven Race often possess higher innate talents than humans, resulting in many having affinity for three or even two elements. The Blue Elves, in particular, consistently produce one "Child of Element" with affinity for water every century, and the other two races are similar.
According to the general knowledge of elf history in the wizarding general education course, elves are not native to the Wizard World. They are similar to the Blood Clan and are visitors who came from the intersection of the multiverse and the celestial sphere of this world long ago. Their homeland is called "Pandora Dimension".
It was a water world similar to the Endless Sea, inhabited by three major races: Blue Elves, Green Elves, and Blood Elves. These three races shared a common belief in a being called "Pandora Matriarch," a towering tree resembling the World Tree. According to the elves, it was the flowering and fruiting of the Pandora Tree that gave birth to the first elven sages, who then created the prosperous "Pandora Empire."
During the height of the Pandora Empire, it was once comparable to the early Wizard Civilization. Although they were few in number, each of them was an elite force with their own spellcasting system. They were arrogant and conceited, and attempted to invade the Wizard Civilization, which led to a large-scale war between wizards and elves. This war was known as the "Spirit-Wizard Conflict".
In the end, the wizards won the war. Even the Pandora Tree was cut in half by Sauron, the first Legendary Wizard of the Wizard Civilization. If Sauron had not been merciful and did not want to sever the lineage of the elven civilization, it might have been uprooted.
Later, after Sauron established the Pan-Dimensional Wizard Council, he returned the Pandora Tree to the Elven civilization and solidified a Legendary Realm spell of his own creation on the Pandora Tree: [Pandora's Eternal Covenant]! This spell directly severed the Elven civilization's path to becoming a Legendary Realm and, from the root, made the Elven civilization a subordinate civilization of the Wizard Civilization, forming an alliance and agreeing not to invade each other's territory.
Thus, this large-scale war of civilizations came to an end with the complete victory of the Wizard Civilization.
This was the first large-scale war victory achieved since the emergence of the Wizard Civilization.
Other dimensions also came to know about this terrifying group of wizards.
"Sauron, the wise Knight among the Seven Heavenly Knights, the Ancestor of Wizards!" Levi first heard of this person in the legend of the Seven Heavenly Knights in the Church.
Sauron, the ancestor of wizards demonized by the Church of Holy Light, also held many other titles, including the first legendary wizard, the founder of the Pan-Dimensional Wizard Council, and the eternal Grand Councilor.
Even a lowly ant like Levi knew many of Sauron's deeds like the back of his hand.
Unfortunately, Sauron later left the council and his whereabouts are unknown. He may have been wandering in other multiverses, or some say he may have entered the Astral Realm and become... a god.
