"But...Academy is actually willing to give out High-Tier Military Merit as a reward. Can Dean bear it?"
After the excitement, Benjamin also calmed down and discovered something fishy.
Just like Clark said, Academy is definitely not just entrusting himself this time. I am afraid that all senior wizards in the school who are good at Alchemy will be asked to create materials that can resist energy erosion.
He himself is just a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice, and his output and the effect of manufacturing materials are definitely far inferior to other high-level wizards.
The Military Merit obtained should also be distributed according to each person's contribution. Calculated in this way, the amount of Military Merit paid by the Academy this time is quite considerable.
These are all High-Tier Military Merit. Neither points nor Military Merit nor High-Tier Military Merit and Low-Tier Military Merit can be exchanged for each other. They can only be obtained by completing the tasks of Star Track Tribunal.
To take on the task of Star Track Tribunal, the minimum requirement is Level 7 Wizard.
In the whole Noren Academy, the only Level 7 Wizard is the Master Dean whom he has never met before.
"Guess why Dean hasn't shown up for so many years?" Clark showed a rare expression of gloating on his face, "Of course he went to the front line to work as a coward."
"Hiss..."
Benjamin couldn't help but laugh when he thought that the mysterious and unpredictable Master Dean actually wanted to be a cow and a horse.
However, considering that I would have to work under the other party's hands in the future, and fearing that the other party would put small shoes on me when he came back, I could only twist my expression into a grin and take a deep breath.
"Ahem... Well... He actually supported the entire Academy with his own efforts. Mr. Dean is really a role model for us..."
"You can laugh if you want, that old guy is not a serious guy anyway." Clark glanced at him with a half-smile.
It seemed that because of the resonance of being a cow and horse, the expression on his face was not so stiff.
Benjamin The corners of his mouth curled up, but he still suppressed his smile.
To divert attention, he raised another question:
"That Shadow Plane looks very difficult."
"The form of that plane is very special. The creatures in it are in a state of half element and half living thing. Moreover, the special nature of Shadow Element caused great losses to the wizards."
Clark had nothing to hide, and told the information about Shadow Plane quite fluently. After all, Benjamin's Level Two Training Agreement was enough to give him the authority to know these things.
"It's so difficult to fight... Then why doesn't Dean take action himself?" Benjamin couldn't help but be curious.
Judging from the reactions of the Academy and Clark, there should be no strong people at the same level as Dean in Shadow Plane, otherwise they wouldn't be so relaxed.
Moreover, the higher the level of a wizard, the greater the gap between him and the powerful people of the same level in other civilizations. The strength of High-Rank Wizard far exceeds that of ordinary creatures of the same level.
Even if Shadow Plane really has Level 7 creatures, even if the opponent's number exceeds two digits, and counting the blessings of the entire plane, it may not be enough for Dean to fight with one hand.
"Because there is a god equivalent to Level 6 Lifeform in that world."
"Huh?" Benjamin couldn't help but tilt his head to express doubts.
Clark glanced at him, ignored his doubts, and asked instead, "What do you think is the purpose of Wizard Civilization being keen to launch Plane War?"
What is the purpose of the wizard's war?
Benjamin blinked, thought carefully for a while, and then carefully answered, "For... resources and knowledge?"
There are many things that wizards pursue, but in summary they are two things: resources and knowledge.
"That's right, you won't be blinded like those idiots." Clark showed an approving smile.
"We do not start wars because we enjoy the pleasure of destruction... Although there are such idiots, the reason why most wizards participate in Plane War is just to continuously obtain more knowledge and resources so that they can go further."
"If a plane is willing to offer all the knowledge and resources of its own world as soon as it encounters an invasion, then the wizards will not have to destroy the original civilization of that plane, and are even willing to accept them as new servants... Many Servant Planes among Noren Workshop came from this way."
"Even if Native in the plane resists extremely, the wizards don't care, and are even happy to see it, because war can catalyze the birth of knowledge."
"Even because the catalytic effect of war is so good, some forces, after finding a new plane, will invest in a balanced level of wizards based on the overall strength of the plane to ensure that the war continues to be extremely intense and catalyze the birth of new knowledge."
Having said this, Clark lowered his head and glanced at an inconspicuous bracelet on his wrist. "Of course, extreme guys like this are usually in the camp of Crimson Court. Star Ring Federation's philosophy is more inclined to what I said before."
"Can the concepts of these two camps really tell the difference between good and evil?" Benjamin's eyes twitched and he couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Regardless of whether it is Star Ring Federation or Crimson Court, the concepts of these two camps are all Class A war criminals in Benjamin's opinion!
Neither of them is good.
What?
Am I also a member of Star Ring Federation now?
Ah, that's okay.
However, Benjamin now also understands the reason why Academy is willing to consume so many resources for Shadow Plane. In such a tricky plane, the resources and knowledge inside are definitely more exciting.
Noticing Clark's gaze towards him, Benjamin coughed dryly and restrained his thoughts:
"If you look at it this way, shouldn't it be more appropriate to let Dean take action? In this way, at least most of the resources can be saved."
"This is the most troublesome part." Clark shook his head, "Level 6 Lifeform is really not worth mentioning. If you have a head-on confrontation, even some of the better Level 5 Wizard can kill the opponent."
"The problem is that once a creature reaches level six, it can come into contact with Plane Origin. Even if Level 6 Lifeform cannot control Plane Origin as accurately as a wizard, it can still drag the entire plane to death with just a rough use."
Benjamin now understands that in the final analysis it is still a question of cost-effectiveness and benefits.
If they were really aggressive, the wizards' expedition would probably end in vain due to the extreme desperation of the other party.
"Then how should we deal with a situation like this?"
"Three methods, one, find a stronger wizard to deal with it. Generally Level 8 Wizard can forcibly suppress the opponent's behavior of destroying the plane, even if the opponent is also Level 8 Lifeform, there is no problem. As for the second method, that is to continuously send troops to slowly weaken the power of the opponent's plane until Plane Origin is weakened to a certain extent. Or..."
Clark paused and looked out the window meaningfully. "... There is a wizard who has been promoted to the sixth level in that plane."
