The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 355: Building a Wizard Tower

After leaving the library, Jimmy took Richard around the college and let Richard understand the general layout of the college.

In terms of space, the Garlon Wizard Academy is divided into four floors.

The bottom floor is the apprentice accommodation area and the apprentice arena. When wizard apprentices are resting, they can go to the arena to play a few games to relax.

Further up are the teaching area and experimental area, and there is nothing much to say about these two.

Then comes the all-important third layer.

This floor is the most important of the Garon School of Wizardry, as it is home to the library and the cafeteria.

Because almost all the wizards in the Garlon Wizard Academy have undergone physical evolution.

This also makes "eating", which has no sense of existence in ordinary wizarding academies, extremely important in the Garlon Wizarding Academy.

In the cafeteria of Garlon College, Richard even saw dishes cooked with level 3 creatures, and the price was even less than the cost price.

Jimmy explained: "The dean has a food world dedicated to breeding, so the price of these monsters is much cheaper than outside."

Richard swallowed his saliva. Using a world as a breeding farm, is this the ambition of a top wizard?
The last one is the fourth floor, which is the small wizard tower on the top of the mountain.

That was the daily residence of the great wizard Garlon and was of no use for teaching in the academy.

After touring the entire college and making sure there was no other place, Richard finally expressed his doubts.

"Master, doesn't our academy have a place for wizards to live on a daily basis?"

Jimmy nodded. "Yes, there is indeed no place for wizards to live in the academy. However, many wizards stay in the experimental area all year round, so this can be considered as half a wizard living area."

Richard nodded thoughtfully.

"That means, besides staying in the experimental area for a long time, I can only build a wizard tower in the wilderness?"

“Yes, but the academy provides subsidies for building wizard towers.

The dean has connections with many established wizarding guilds, and purchasing materials through the academy’s channels will be much cheaper than the market price.”

"That's a good thing." Richard smiled.

"Oh?" Jimmy looked at Richard with interest, "Other wizards chose to live in the laboratory after hearing the news.

Few choose to build a wizard tower.

But I see from your words that you have been planning to build a wizard tower here for a long time?"

Richard explained: "Hey, Master, you don't know, my partner is the grandson of my old dean.

With her status, is it reasonable for her to live in another wizarding academy all day long? "

"Wow! You are really good." Jimmy said in surprise, "If I remember correctly, the Great Wizard of the Black Tower only has one student, Susanna, and one apprentice.

You are hooking up with a rich woman... No, you are already quite rich.

But it's a pity that no matter how good a wizard's partner is, it can't compare to the truth!"

As he said this, Jimmy patted Richard's shoulder with a smile.

"Just tell me about the wizard tower. Just tell me what piece of land you like and what materials you need. I promise to get you the lowest price.

"You left Black Tower Wizarding Academy despite your connections. Our academy will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Richard bowed slightly: "Thank you very much, Master."

……

There are vast expanses of wasteland on the snowy plains of the Far North, and human tribes are scattered across this vast land like stars.

Richard bent down, pushed aside the fallen snow, and gently pinched the lichen.

Tundra is one of the few places in this far north where plants grow.

When summer comes, this pale land that now looks dead will turn into a paradise for thousands of creatures.

"Right here." Richard turned around and said.

Behind him, Jimmy and Tosio were talking about the climate and ecological distribution of the area.

"here?"

Tosio gave Jimmy an apologetic smile, then walked over to Richard and looked around.

"Tundra, permafrost, no problem building a wizard tower."

Richard turned around and asked, "What about building a human city, or even a human kingdom?"

"Ah?" Tosio was a little surprised. "This is not a good place to build a city. There is no place to grow crops here. We can only rely on primitive picking and hunting.

If we have to rely on the outside world to transport daily necessities, this place is not a route for airship trade, and the freight will become extremely expensive.

If you want to build a city, it must be home to at least hundreds of thousands or even millions of mortals.

These people's food, clothing, shelter and transportation all rely on external supplies. Even your family assets cannot withstand such consumption."

"What if we can grow it?" Richard smiled and took out a mushroom from his pocket.

He thought of this when he learned that the Garlon Wizard Academy was built in the Far North.

To this end, he had specially asked the World Mushroom to cultivate a kind of mushroom that can grow in cold climates and store a large amount of calories.

The mushroom in his hand is the result of the World Mushroom.

"This mushroom can survive in an environment of minus 40 degrees Celsius, and its requirements for living conditions are not high. It can be grown on a large scale even in tundra."

Tosio took the mushroom, turned it over in his hands for a few seconds, and then gave it back to Richard.

“With this thing, we can indeed consider building a city here.

But I have never built a city on the tundra, so there may be some problems in the middle, I hope you can understand. "

Richard waved his hand: “We can start with a small city of tens of thousands of people, and then expand little by little.

I’m not in a rush about this stuff.”

Tosio bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your understanding. Let's discuss the construction plan of the wizard tower. Do you plan to build it according to the regular wizard tower or according to the specifications of a small floating city? I have made many improvements to the design of the small floating city over the years, and have made many versions. You can take a look."

"Ok?"

Richard was slightly stunned, then he reacted.

He is Tosio's academic sponsor.

He has been so busy with his own research over the years that he almost forgot about funding Tosio.

"Money means speed. It's only been three hundred years, and you've optimized several versions." Richard joked.

Tosio sighed deeply upon hearing this, it is true that making money comes quickly.

With sufficient financial support, his progress in the past three hundred years is even greater than that in the past seven or eight hundred years.

Ten thousand demons are nothing to Richard.

The current Richard Jorode Chamber of Commerce has expanded several times its original size.

A large number of spell support vehicles are produced from the alchemy workshop every day.

But even so, their production speed could not keep up with the speed at which orders from the White Wizard Legion were received.

The reputation of the spell support vehicle even spread to other Towers of Truth, and black magic essence flowed into Richard's pocket like water.

This also made Richard no longer as sensitive to the number of demons as before.

Even though Richard's share has changed, from 300 magic spirits per car to 30 magic spirits per car now.

Including the income from spellcasting components, ten thousand magic essences is only a year's income for him.

But for an ordinary wizard, this is a huge sum of money that can only be saved up after fighting several plane wars.

Richard looked through the drawings. Each design was different and had a different focus.

Richard glanced through them briefly, stroked his chin, picked out one and handed it to Tosio.

"This is it, it's more balanced."

Tosio took the drawing and said, “This design is indeed more balanced, but it also places higher demands on the power furnace.

The late stage transformation of the wizard tower is a very troublesome matter, you must think it through carefully."

Richard waved his hand indifferently: "That's it. It's troublesome to renovate the wizard tower, I can build another one."

Tosio was stunned by Richard's generosity.

A small floating city is not something that can be built with a few hundred magic essences like an ordinary wizard tower. The cheapest one costs more than 20,000 magic essences to build.

But he thought carefully about Richard's income, and these magic spirits were really nothing to Richard.

"Okay, then I'll build it according to this blueprint."

Richard asked again: "How long does it take to build a wizard tower?"

Tosio smiled confidently, "Two years is enough."

Richard nodded slightly. Compared with the difficulty of the construction, this time was indeed not long.

"Okay, I'll leave this to you. I'll come to see my wizard tower in two years. Don't postpone it."

"Don't worry, Master. The Wizard Tower will only be delivered early, not late."

……

The construction of the wizard tower was fully authorized by Tosio.

During this period when there was no wizard tower, Richard could only choose a laboratory in the experimental area as a temporary residence like ordinary wizards.

In the laboratory, a dark door suddenly opened.

Richard's soul flew out of the door and fell into the body standing in front of the test bench.

He opened his eyes and a hint of excitement flashed across his face.

"The Far North is a really great place. There isn't even a nightmare lord at the location corresponding to the nightmare world."

Nightmare creatures need to rely on humans to survive, but there are no large human cities in the Far North all year round.

Although there are a large number of apprentices in the wizard academy, firstly, wizard apprentices rarely sleep, and most of them use meditation to eliminate mental fatigue. Secondly, their number is not enough to support the emergence of a nightmare lord.

A nightmare lord requires at least a mortal kingdom and tens of millions of mortals to support him.

No Nightmare Lords, that means no competition.

Over the past few hundred years, Richard has accumulated enough nightmare power to be promoted to Nightmare Knight.

As long as he wants, he is the only ruler of the Far North.

Putting aside the matters of the nightmare world, Richard turned his gaze to a blue-black flame sealed in a crystal ball on the test bench.

This is the new version of the Flame of Destruction created by Ulysses. It also has the special attack ability against flesh and blood creatures like the Blue Flame.

Richard broke the seal, placed the flame on a rune base, and used magic to support it to keep burning.

Then, he took out a crystal cover and covered it. On the crystal wall of the cover, there was an unusually protruding diamond-shaped crystal.

Then he took out a piece of flesh from his pocket, placed it in front of the diamond-shaped crystal, and then activated the crystal cover.

The next moment, runes appeared faintly on the crystal ball, and within a few seconds, the diamond-shaped crystals on the crystal wall emitted a faint blue light.

This is one of Richard's achievements over the past three hundred years, a radiation constraint rune array developed based on the Aurora spell.

The diamond-shaped crystal emitted a blue light, which was the special radiation emitted by the blue-black flame that had a special effect on flesh and blood.

When the blue light shone on the flesh, the cells in the flesh soon began to collapse. However, Richard ignored it and began to use the distortion rule to mutate the flesh.

He is trying to mutate a cell that is strong enough to resist this radiation, and then verify whether Ulises's speculation was correct.

Are cells that can resist this radiation stronger?
