The Wizard: From Zero-Ring Wizard to Almighty Lord.

Chapter 153 Ten times life span

Chapter 153

Guarding the castle, in Lynn's laboratory.

At this moment, in the quiet laboratory, a huge flower bed stands quietly in the center.

The flower bed is filled with blue and white frozen soil. Above the frozen soil, stands a giant tree with lush green leaves and vibrant vitality, exuding a faint extraordinary breath.

This tree is none other than Lynn’s extraordinary plant, Ifgrid!
Its trunk is extremely thick, with a faint glow flowing on its surface. Its countless tangled roots penetrate deep into the frozen soil, madly absorbing the mysterious energy within like greedy tentacles.

Lynn stood in front of the tree, narrowed his eyes slightly, and slowly probed his mental power to establish a deep connection with Ifgrid.

"It can slow down Ivgrid. This kind of environment does have a special effect on plants..."

"But...it doesn't provide any additional nutrients..."

Lin En's mental fluctuations paused slightly, and he sensed some strange changes.

"Strange... When I was controlling Ivgrid, there was a 'delay'?"

Although his consciousness had already issued the order, Ifgrid's reaction seemed to be slowed down for a moment by some force, causing Lynn to sense a strange sense of sluggishness.

"If... this is just my delayed perception, then..."

Lin En took a deep breath, his mind moved, and he murmured:

"What would happen if I completely merged with Ifgrid?"

Will thinking slow down?

Will there be a "time dislocation" with the outside world?

With thoughts flashing in his mind, Lin En no longer hesitated, and slowly opened his mouth, whispering:

"With the total death!"

hum!
Level 1 witchcraft, live and die together, activated!
At this moment, Lynn's body shook slightly, and he slowly took a step forward, and his whole body merged into the trunk of Ifgrid without any hindrance!

Just like a drop of water returning to the sea, his figure quickly faded away, enveloped by flowing light, and completely disappeared in the laboratory.

silence.

In the entire laboratory, the light flickered and the air seemed to be frozen.

On the wooden laboratory table in the distance, various strange witchcraft instruments were neatly arranged.

But at this moment, the laboratory is empty, with only a quiet extraordinary tree rooted in the frozen soil, like an ancient life forgotten by time.

On the wall, an ancient clock was ticking, and the hands of the clock moved slowly.

tick...

tick...

Time passes quietly.

I do not know how long it has been……

A soft glow suddenly appeared on the surface of Ifgrid's trunk, as if a strange energy was surging within it.

hum!
A blurry light slowly emerged, and then Lin En stepped out from the tree trunk and returned to the laboratory.

His eyes were slightly dazed, as if he was still immersed in some wonderful state.

"I feel like...my thoughts have slowed down..."

Lynn raised his palm, feeling the changes in himself, and murmured softly.

In his perception, he stayed in Ivgrid's consciousness world for a full fifteen minutes.

But just as he looked up at the clock on the wall, his pupils suddenly shrank!
He looked at the hour and minute hands that kept spinning, and his expression changed slightly.

Fifteen minutes had passed inside him, but in the laboratory, a full one hundred and fifty minutes had passed!
Ten times the time difference!
Lin En's heartbeat quickened slightly, his mind racing at this moment, and he finally realized that he had discovered something extremely shocking.

"From the looks of it, plant life in the frozen soil...will be extended tenfold!"

His eyes flickered as he carefully recalled the feeling just now.

"But... this extension is only from the outside world's perspective."

Lin En's eyes narrowed slightly as he pondered the far-reaching impact of the time dislocation.

"A plant that only lives for a hundred years can survive for a thousand years in frozen soil."

“But this is just the passage of time as seen by the outside world.”

In fact, for the plant, its life experience remains the original one hundred years, without any increase at all.

It doesn't feel like it has lived even one more day, but the flow of time has been slowed down, making it seem like it has spent a thousand years to outsiders.

“This is the magic of frozen soil…”

Lynn has deeply experienced the wonderful properties of frozen soil, which may be of no use to the mechanical wizard.

But for him... this might be a resource that all natural wizards would envy!
Lin En's eyes lit up and a bold idea arose in his mind.

"What if I completely merge myself with Ifgrid and live in the frozen earth?"

He clenched his fists subconsciously, feeling a little excited.

As a first-level wizard, his lifespan would normally be no more than two hundred years.

"But if I'm in the frozen soil, my time will be extended tenfold..."

Two thousand years in the outside world, his life experience is still two hundred years!

In the wizarding world, longevity is one of the ultimate pursuits of wizards in their quest for transcendence!

Even though the frozen soil cannot truly increase his lifespan, it can increase his survival time tenfold, allowing him to exist in the outside world indefinitely!

more importantly.

"This is not an increase in lifespan, but a dislocation of time!"

"My thoughts and perceptions...are still at the state of a 200-year lifespan, but the outside world has already undergone tremendous changes!"

what does this mean?
This means that during this extended life span, he might be able to wait for a new breakthrough opportunity, a new life-extending secret technique, or even...

One day, I will wait for the extraordinary means to completely break the shackles of lifespan!

Lynn's eyes became brighter.

"But... to achieve such a miraculous effect, the energy of the frozen soil itself must be consumed in large quantities..."

He looked down to examine the changes in the frozen ground.

Sure enough, part of the originally blue and white frozen soil had turned dry and white, losing its cold luster.

This is obviously caused by energy consumption!
Lin En seemed to be thinking about something. He reached out and picked up a handful of dry white frozen soil, rubbing it gently between his fingertips, feeling the unique rhythm that once existed in it, but now it had completely dried up.

"Sure enough, the frozen soil is not infinite. Its ability of 'time dislocation' depends on some special energy."

But even so, its value is still immeasurable!
Lin En's eyes became sharp. "Perhaps frozen soil is of no importance to mechanical wizards."

"But for a natural wizard... this thing is definitely a rare treasure!"

If he brings the frozen soil to the gathering place of natural wizards, those high-level wizards who are about to die will surely go crazy for it!

Even if they cannot truly extend their lifespan, as long as they can survive a few thousand more years in the outside world, it is enough to make them excited!

What’s more, during this thousand years of waiting, their friends, disciples, families, and even the entire wizarding world.

Perhaps we can find a real way to prolong life and help them completely break free from the shackles of death!
"If we can sell this frozen soil in large quantities to the natural wizard world..."

Lynn gently stroked his chin, a smile on his face.

"Priceless?"

"Do not……"

"For those wizards, this thing... is 'second life'!"

At this moment, he completely understood why wizards had to conquer other worlds, open up new worlds, and explore unknown territories.

Every new world is an unknown treasure trove, and every undeveloped land may contain miracles that can change the wizard's destiny.

Just like Lin En at this moment, he discovered the meaning of permafrost.

This is a resource that transcends life and death, the gift of time, and a second life!
Lin En stood on a piece of dark blue frozen soil. He gently stroked the glowing frozen soil under his feet, his eyes deep and thoughtful.

"The consumption of frozen soil... should be closely related to the biological level."

He murmured slowly, his fingertips lightly running across a piece of dry white frozen soil that had absorbed energy, feeling the remaining energy fluctuations in it.

"Evgrid and I are both first-level wizards. The resources we consume must be more than ordinary flowers, plants and trees..."

Lynn took a deep breath, and his thoughts became clearer.

The energy required for an ordinary plant to survive in permafrost for a thousand years is just a tiny fraction.

Then, as a formal wizard-level life form, the energy consumption required must increase exponentially!
"So, what about secondary, tertiary, or even higher levels of life?"

His mind raced as he continued to deduce the properties of frozen soil.

"For species that are powerful enough to a certain level, ordinary frozen soil may not be able to meet their needs at all..."

"Perhaps what they need is more refined and higher-grade frozen soil resources..."

Lynn narrowed her eyes, an unprecedented desire burning in her heart.

His demand for frozen soil has now reached its extreme!
To a natural wizard, the value of this piece of frozen land is almost immeasurable, and he... is also a natural wizard, so naturally he is no exception!

He wished he could take control of all the frozen soil resources in his jurisdiction.

But this is obviously not realistic.

Because most of the resources of this garrison castle will be sent to the war fortress, and then the more powerful wizards there will decide how to deal with the resources.

But that doesn't mean he has no solution.

Because he is now on the battlefield, and on the battlefield, the greatest reward for a soldier is military merit.

With military merits, most resources can be obtained.

Not to mention frozen soil, a resource that is of no importance to mechanical wizards.

These are some rare and precious metal materials that can be exchanged for military merits!

"As long as I can accumulate enough military merits... I can monopolize the frozen soil resources of this world... After all, the value of this thing on the military merit table is extremely low! I can take all the frozen soil!"

Lynn's eyes flashed with a cold light.

There are only two ways to gain military merits.

The first one is to kill the enemies in the Goddess camp!
The second type is to make outstanding contributions to the wizard camp!
The simplest and most direct method is to kill the enemy.

The value of each enemy is also different. Enemies of different identities and strengths can provide very different military merits!

Take the Star Hunter spy he had killed earlier.

That guy's identity is extremely special. He is a first-ring mage of the Star Hunter Society. If Lin En reports this matter, he can get five points of military merit!

Five points of military merit are equivalent to killing five ordinary first-ring mages!
But he didn’t report it…

Because giving up the current five points of military merit is for the sake of more military merit!

As for how to attract the Star Hunter members in the Goddess camp, Lin En naturally has his own unique method.

That means joining the game yourself!

Lynn decided to set up a nest himself, and then hunt those Star Hunter Society spies as prey!
The spies of the Star Hunter Society have always been cautious. They lurk in the castles guarding them. Any spies who are able to get a relatively important position will not easily expose themselves!

For example, the Star Hunter spy that Lin En had killed before was very well hidden and had never even attacked the official wizards guarding the castle.

Even though the other party went to the frozen soil resource area many times, this spy was not exposed at all, but served those official wizards respectfully and humbly.

Even the "Witch Hunting Dagger", which was standard equipment for Star Hunter spies, was still brand new in the spy's hand, and still retained three complete assassination opportunities!

Because those spies are waiting to carry out more important tasks, and only then will they be exposed.

However, Lynn was an outlier, he let the spy expose himself and attacked him.

In the eyes of the Star Hunters, he is a fat fish, or even an irresistible delicious bait!

As for the reason, it can be traced back to his experience in [Landscape] during his third-level apprenticeship.

"That spy from the Star Hunters called me a blasphemer. Actually, it's true. After all, I took the God Blood Pill made from God's blood!"

Lin En murmured, recalling the divine blood pills he had taken before.

He still remembered that when the Divine Blood Pill was exchanged in [Landscape], this thing was not valuable because if you took too much, you would be specially marked.

This mark is not visible to the naked eye, but is a deep spiritual imprint.

All beings who believe in gods can sense this mark and regard those who wear it as "blasphemers"!
Anyone who is a member of the Gods Civilization will attack without hesitation if they come into contact with him!
This is the fundamental reason why the Star Hunter spies got out of control and were exposed!
He met Lin En, sensed the "Mark of the Blasphemer" that disgusted the gods, and attacked him on the spot!
Lin En believed that the attraction of this mark was far stronger than he had ever imagined!

In other words, he is the "natural enemy" in the eyes of the Star Hunters' spies!
As long as the Star Hunters' spies sense his presence, they will be exposed.

I couldn't help but want to kill him, I couldn't help but want to completely wipe out this "blasphemer"!
At that time, Lin En only needed to deal with those Star Hunter spies to gain a huge amount of military merits.

There was a deep gleam in Lynn's eyes.

Since you are going to make the bait, why not make the most deadly bait!
Let all those latent members of the Star Hunting Society surface and earn a huge amount of military merit at once!
Of course, Lin En is not so arrogant as to fight against the entire Star Hunter Society on his own.

The Star Hunter Society’s spies were at different levels. Although his current strength was not weak, if he encountered a second-ring or even third-ring strongman, he would probably not be able to deal with it alone.

So, he plans to apply for foreign aid!
Lin En didn't know many people, but not too few either. He first contacted the wizard who was guarding the castle that he was responsible for.

Then, he contacted his friends: Martha and Giroud, who were also from the Eastern Theater...
