The fireball struck one mutant, shattering him, and then split into two, striking two other mutants nearby and shattering them as well.
At this point, the two fireballs did not extinguish or disappear, but instead multiplied into four, continuing to bombard the four mutants beside them.
The four attacks instantly multiplied into eight, the eight then split into sixteen, and the sixteen into thirty-two.
Leo watched as the fireball released from Tao Mia's hand eventually disappeared, having split into 128 parts.
"Your initial attack power is 2400 points. The Homo Sapiens World has now suppressed it to 80% of its original strength, meaning your original attack power was 3000 points. The level one limit is 100 points of mental power. Calculated at 20 times the attack power, that's 2000 points. Elemental Body Tempering increases it by 20%, which is still 2400 points. This means your equipment can increase your attack power by 30%."
Leo looked at Tao Mia and noticed that her staff clearly carried an elemental aura.
A 30% increase in attack power is much more generous than what I had before I obtained the Godslaying Set.
"As for this Elemental Body Tempering sorcery, its attack power decreases by 200 points with each split, eventually reaching only 1000 points."
With just one viewing, the Thunderstorm Giant had already analyzed the magic cast by the Fire Giant perfectly, even calculating the enhancements from her equipment with flawless precision.
Seeing the Fire Giant panting heavily and clearly weakened by his magic, she had cast the spell defiantly, but her eyes shone with anticipation as she looked at the Thunderstorm Giant, clearly hoping for something.
"A very good Elemental Body Tempering sorcery, much better than mine back then." The Thunderstorm Giant didn't hold back his praise.
"Thank you for your encouragement, teacher. But I dare not compare myself to you. In the first First-Level Wizard Tournament, I was eliminated in the knockout stage."
Originating from a deeply regretful Charlotte, the Fire Giant clearly knew her teacher's past achievements. In her first participation in the First-Level Wizard Tournament, she broke into the top 2500. If she hadn't voluntarily withdrawn from the competition, her teacher would definitely have been number one.
She wouldn't dare compare herself to her!
The Thunderstorm Giant smiled but didn't reveal the hidden truth. According to the timeline, Tao Mia participated in the First-Level Wizard Tournament right after advancing to the Level 1. She hadn't even reached the limit of her basic attributes, and her Elemental Body Tempering magic system was still immature. She was just a newbie who had just advanced. If she could pass the elimination rounds, wouldn't that mean that the other wizards were too weak?
Alice has been around for almost four hundred years in the first level, and she's only just passed the elimination rounds.
As for himself, his path to becoming a wizard was entirely a shortcut. With the knowledge base of Earth, he had a huge advantage over anyone else.
That's completely different from Tao Mia's self-made success; the difficulty level is worlds apart.
However, Leo still asked his question, "How did you end up on the path of Elemental Body Tempering?"
"Didn't you say, teacher, that as long as I read all the books in the library, I can find my own path to becoming a wizard? I did just that, as you instructed, and read all the books in the library." Tao Mia gently reminded Leo; these were his words.
So you found it?
The Thunderstorm Giant glanced at the Body Refinement Wizard not far away, who were listening intently to the discussion between the two Elemental Body Refinement Wizard. Leo himself was Elemental Body Refinement Wizard, and with a casual gesture, he had taught another one after several years. Such astonishing teaching quality naturally made these Body Refinement Wizard want to learn from him.
Elemental Body Refinement Wizard! Look at Leo, look at Tao Mia, they both possess strength far exceeding that of ordinary wizards.
Who wouldn't want to become Elemental Body Refinement Wizard?
If you don't care about yourself, don't you think about your students and your future generations?
Eavesdropping isn't illegal, and neither of them blocked the other's audio; not blocking it means they were allowed to listen.
Leo was too lazy to argue with these wizards. If becoming Elemental Body Refinement Wizard was so easy, the Wizard World wouldn't be so small now.
Looking at Tao Mia, he did say that he had read all the books in the library, but that wasn't meant to encourage her, his young apprentice, to read and study more. It didn't actually help her find the path to Elemental Body Refinement Wizard!
"Yes, thanks to the teacher's instructions and regular guidance, even though I'm not very bright, I still managed to find it."
"I once asked my teacher a question about how to increase body temperature and strengthen the body through bodily fluids. In my subsequent studies, I found my path to becoming a wizard through this topic."
Leo looked at Tao Mia, who thought he was stupid, and his lips twitched. Many wizards around him had the same expression as Leo, but they turned their backs and were not seen by Tao Mia.
Raising body fluid temperature to enhance physical strength is a fairly common topic, but unexpectedly, Tao Mia discovered her own path through it.
If finding one's own path to Elemental Body Refinement Wizard is so easy, then who is smart?
Leo now completely understood why Roderick valued Tao Mia so much. It wasn't just because she was Elemental Body Refinement Wizard, but also because of her learning ability. With proper training, she had a much greater chance of becoming Stigmata Wizard than ordinary wizards!
Elemental Body Refinement Wizard have chosen the path of wizardry are inherently more likely to become Stigmata Wizard than other wizards. However, it is precisely because there are so few Elemental Body Refinement Wizard that it seems that there are so few Elemental Body Refinement Wizard have achieved the Stigmata Level.
In fact, their chances of successfully advancing to the Stigmata level are hundreds of times higher than those of ordinary wizards.
Even Leo was amazed by Tao Mia's learning ability; it would be a shame if the Undying Body Academy didn't put its heart into nurturing her.
If they don't nurture her properly, Tao Mia might be kidnapped by another academy one night.
If Tao Mia, like herself, can help other apprentices find their own path of Elemental Body Tempering, without seeking mass production, producing one every hundred years, Undying Body Academy will be the holy land of all wizards!
Leo suddenly realized that with Tao Mia's successful experience as a precedent, there should be quite a few novice body-refining apprentices who would then flock to the library.
I just wonder if, when they see those books that can blow your mind, they'll shout that Tao Mia isn't human.
The cleanup mission continues; the command center's order is to annihilate all life on the entire planet.
Although there were many wizards and slaves, it would have been impossible to complete this task without more than a decade of warfare.
Leo followed Tao Mia and the others, quickly cleaning up and stuffing anything good they encountered along the way into the Shadow Space.
For example, Leo kept mentioning the energy problem of Homo sapiens. He heard that wizards on the starship were already researching it, but he didn't know what the results were.
When Leo was bored, he also disassembled many of their cars and other vehicles. Inside, instead of an engine, there was just a simple part that looked like a small nozzle.
As for the energy source, Leo found a piece of soft metal inside the car. Although he couldn't find any record of this metal in his knowledge system, he determined through analysis of the vehicle's structure that this metal was the energy source.
Humans on Earth burn gasoline, while Homo sapiens here use metals.
Leo directly accessed the information exchange platform, which was a platform for summarizing information from the starship, and ordinary wizards had no right to enter it.
"Have the results of the analysis for this energy metal been obtained?" Leo asked directly.
"Master Leo, the results are in. I'll send you a copy right away."
Upon seeing Leo's inquiry, Vasily immediately sent Leo a document.
Leo opened the report and saw it was about this energy metal. Leo glanced at the large amount of data and only looked at the final conclusion.
"Potentially possessing high energy reactivity, this metal can slowly release stable energy upon simple stimulation. For the same volume, it has the same energy content as energy crystals, making it suitable as currency in the Wizard World and for use in key components of instruments and magic arrays. Currently, no veins of this metal have been found in the Homo Sapiens World."
Seeing that this metal's function was similar to that of energy crystals, Leo lost much interest. However, upon realizing that there were no mineral veins in the Homo Sapiens World, Leo smiled.
Because in the earliest intelligence he submitted, there was a point that the knowledge of the Homo Sapiens World was severely fragmented, and many technological achievements seemed to come from intelligence analysis from other worlds.
At the time, it was just Leo's guess, but now that he has seen the report about this active metal, the information Leo provided before was completely correct.
The Homo Sapiens World is connected to a truly technological world, and may also be controlled by that same great tree.
But now that we have so much otherworldly metal, we can easily calculate his coordinates.
Another world has been discovered, and whichever Stigmata Wizard embarks on the expedition will have to share a large portion of the war merits with Leo.
What truly means making money? It's people like Leo who truly make money.
Although he seemed trapped in the Homo Sapiens World for 32 years, those 32 years also allowed Leo to acquire a wealth of intelligence, which is money.
"Hehehe, are you ready to face the wizard's invasion?"
Leo grinned, revealing his large teeth. The merits he had gained this time might far exceed his expectations.
After all, the intelligence he provided was almost entirely correct, and it was all very important intelligence.
In an exceptionally good mood Leo followed Roderick and his team on a continuous series of extermination missions. By the seventh year of these missions, the number of mutants, living plants, and hybrid plant-human beings had clearly decreased to half.
With only half the enemy's numbers remaining and their fighting strength diminished, they were no match for the wizard army even in their prime, and they are even less of a match now.
At this point, the wizard army often sweeps through, crushing any enemy that stands in their way with overwhelming force.
Squads of wizards whizzed across the sky, issuing mission after mission from the command center, instructing the wizards to complete them as quickly as possible.
