I, a cultivator, have ended up in the wizarding world.
Chapter 172 The Work of the Logistics Department
Chapter 172 The Work of the Logistics Department (Part 3)
During the intense and brief breaks in his research, Jemin did not slack off for a moment.
That day, he uploaded the research report on the lava giant that he had just completed, then put on his robes and disappeared into the temporary laboratory in the center of the camp in a flash.
He didn't rest or talk to other wizards, but went directly to the battlefield where blood and flesh had been flying a few days earlier.
At this moment, the lingering fury of the landing operation had dissipated, leaving only silence in the air.
But to the wizard's keen senses, this vast land was not without its turbulence.
In the landing battle a few days ago, wizard cannon fodder, lava giants and yetis clashed in this area, with blood and flesh flying everywhere and energy raging. The number of creatures slaughtered is at least in the millions.
Various energy particles intertwined in chaos, transforming into a massive, chaotic energy vortex in the wizard's perception.
However, what Jemin needed was not those things, but the "concepts" left behind after this fierce battle!
In Jemin's view, this area was permeated with a lingering battlefield aura and deathly energy.
Jemin walked lightly across the scorched earth, the air thick with a nauseating stench of blood and the decay of death.
Beneath his feet lay dried bloodstains, broken weapons, twisted remains of bio-engineered beasts, charred rocks, and frozen corpses.
Every inch of this land seems to have endured countless tears and destructions.
After all, besides him, there were quite a few low-level wizards "cleaning up" on this battlefield.
Some wizards, wearing rune gloves, carefully extracted the remaining energy cores from the charred lava giant's body.
Some, however, commanded golems to sort and pile up the broken bodies on the battlefield, preparing for recycling.
There were even some wizards who studied soul magic, carefully collecting the remnants of souls that permeated the area using all sorts of strange containers.
Just as the soul and blood in the world of cultivation can be transformed into spiritual power, the soul and flesh in the world of wizards are good materials for many wizards.
Ignoring the busy figures around him, Jemin simply chanted a spell and gently untied the gourd for gathering evil spirits from his waist.
The gourd was dark and ancient. Under the faint light of the runes, the mouth of the gourd slowly opened, forming a vortex that was almost invisible to the naked eye.
The invisible malevolent energy and deathly aura that filled the air, carrying sorrow, anger, and a destructive will, flowed slowly toward the gourd's mouth as if drawn by an invisible force, and were completely absorbed into it.
On the surface of the gourd, those originally dim marks are now pulsating at an extremely subtle frequency, slowly but steadily absorbing this negative energy.
He did not deliberately avoid others during the collection process.
After all, Jemin's method of collecting "raw materials" is hardly conspicuous in the current battlefield filled with all sorts of wizarding tricks.
He even saw a wizard take out a huge black banner from not far away!
The flag fluttered in the wind, covered with countless twisted ghostly patterns, each pattern seemingly containing countless wronged souls struggling within it.
As the wizard chanted his incantation, the flags fluttered and a chilling wind swept through the air.
Within a radius of several hundred meters, all the scattered fragments of souls and the aura of death were swept into the banner, emitting silent wails, creating a bizarre and grand scene.
The intense visual effects almost made Jieming think that he had been transported to a cultivation world and had seen the legendary Ten Thousand Soul Banner!
"Really..." Jemin shook his head inwardly. He withdrew his gaze and focused intently on absorbing the baleful energy.
Just as Jemin was immersed in the sea of malevolent energy, he encountered several low-level wizards on the road.
They all seemed to be clearing away the spoils of war on the outskirts of the battlefield, preparing to find new hunting targets.
When they saw Jemin, a hint of respect involuntarily appeared in their eyes, followed by practiced flattery.
"Ah, isn't this Master Jemin? Are you also busy collecting?" A tired-looking first-level wizard stepped forward, his tone friendly. "You're so hardworking, doing such tedious work yourself!"
"It's just adding to my own knowledge." Jemin smiled slightly, his tone gentle and composed, responding like an ordinary scholar. "You've all worked hard, keep collecting."
"Not at all, not at all. Compared to you, our little bit of hardship is nothing!" Another level-two wizard immediately chimed in, his tone even more respectful. "If it weren't for those reports you published earlier, my team and I would probably still be struggling to figure out how to deal with those lava giants! I never imagined that using sonic attacks and blocking breathing would be so effective!"
"Yes, yes, I wonder if Lord Jemin has any new tactical analysis yet? We're all waiting to see..."
Jemin handled them skillfully, a perfectly timed smile on his face, as if he were already used to it.
In the past few days, he has encountered more and more such things, and their compliments and thanks all focus on one point—his previous analytical reports on the physiological characteristics of lava giants.
There was a twist that surprised Jemin.
In his report, he emphasized what he believed to be the most effective way to kill the Lava Giant in a short time: first, apply a low-temperature attack to stiffen its surface skin, and then destroy its weakened body through intensive physical attacks.
This method of killing using "low temperature combined with physical attacks" was not taken seriously by those low-level wizards.
However, the other two methods included in the report were regarded as gospel by low-level wizards and were widely sought after.
That was about using suffocation-type sorcery (or similar elemental suppression) to restrict the lava giant's movements, and later, the method of using high-frequency sound waves to specifically damage the lava giant's auditory tissue. Both methods were unexpectedly effective.
Regarding "asphyxiation-related witchcraft," Jemin explained in his report that although lava giants are elemental beings, they still have the need to breathe.
This is not breathing oxygen in the traditional sense, but rather maintaining the stability of the core furnace by using a "heat pump and element conversion" through surface cracks and a special internal circulation system.
Therefore, by isolating, suppressing elements, or directly blocking these "breathing" cracks, it is possible to forcibly disrupt the lava giant's heat balance and elemental flow, causing it to become rigid or unconscious.
Wizards don't need to go to great lengths to find weaknesses; they can simply use specific magic to "suffocate" this behemoth, temporarily rendering it unable to move.
Normally, it's not easy to suffocate elemental creatures, but Jemin didn't expect that these wizards would find the right magic almost that very day.
The reason lies with one of the nine level-nine wizards in the witchcraft civilization.
This person's name is unknown. Once a level nine wizard is reached, all relevant personal information is hidden, and even if one knows their life story, only their code name is known.
This one's code name is "Breathing".
This code name comes from the direction of law research that this wizard chose when he was at level three.
Normal wizards choose laws that are as lofty and sophisticated as possible, but this one chose to study the simple law of "breathing".
However, this person later mastered the art of "breathing," and by the time he reached the fourth level of wizardry, the "breathing" principle in his hands was already capable of cutting off the target's energy exchange with the outside world.
He generously shared the relevant sorcery models, including simplified versions that even low-level wizards could construct, so finding a solution to suffocate the lava giant was much easier than Jemin had imagined.
The principle behind "high-frequency sound waves" is even more ingenious.
In his report, Jemin speculated that the lava giant's auditory system was composed of special mineral crystals.
Although it can sense seismic waves, its internal structure may be extremely fragile to high-frequency sound waves of a specific frequency, which can cause resonance and disintegration of its internal crystal structure.
Based on this speculation, the combat-type wizards ahead quickly began to try adding specific high-frequency oscillations to high-intensity explosions or sustained wind-type spells.
The study found that these high-frequency sound waves could directly penetrate the lava giant's "rock skin," causing violent tremors within its body, disrupting the lava flow that maintains its internal balance, causing it immense pain, and even temporarily rendering it immobile.
These two methods are famous not only because they are unexpectedly effective, but more importantly because they allow wizards to easily capture lava giants without harming them!
This is precisely the core reason why these two research findings became so popular among lower-level wizards.
The outcome of the battle between the two powerful monster kings (Karamos and Agron) and Master Elwyn during the initial landing battle quickly became known to the wizards.
Faced with the powerful combat potential of the Frostfire Plane, the wizards naturally recognized the immense value of the plane's native inhabitants.
For low-level wizards, the greatest gain in the Frostfire Plane at this stage is not the visible resources, but the native inhabitants of the two races themselves!
For these low-level wizards, living lava giants or yetis were practically walking treasures.
Whether captured and used as slaves or experimental subjects for various witchcraft studies, or transformed into bio-beasts, golems, or even wizard servants, they possess immeasurable value.
A living lava giant can provide alchemists with the purest lava plasma samples, provide bio-wizards with unique physical structures for research, and can even be used directly to create more powerful bio-weapons.
Lower-level wizards can even sell them to large wizarding factions in exchange for amazing military merits and resources.
However, before this, the Lava Giant's immense power made it difficult for low-level wizards to capture it successfully.
Killing them directly is easy, but capturing them completely and preserving their abilities intact during the capture process is a different kind of challenge.
But Jemin happened to provide an effective method. His two unintentional research findings opened Pandora's box for low-level wizards, allowing them to capture lava giants safely and efficiently at extremely low cost.
So, in a short period of time, Jemin became famous in the camp and became a highly respected "biology master".
Of course, Jemin also knew that his fame this time was purely due to the simplicity of his research topic.
Although the physiological structure of lava giants is unique, it is still a relatively rudimentary area of research compared to the laws of the entire plane and more complex biological types.
He knew that the camp was now filled with many logistics wizards from Norren Workshop, and even from the Tower of Annihilation and the Chaos Cult, who were of higher rank and more experience.
Among these people are masters who have a deeper understanding of biology and the laws of planes.
Once they complete their deeper research, they will surely be able to analyze more effective and precise strategies and methods for the native inhabitants of this plane.
In time, his "small achievements" will soon be submerged by the tide of history.
However, these are not what he is concerned about right now.
But in any case, Jemin didn't dislike the feeling of being able to help more wizards and gain their approval.
