Wizards: Starting with Synthetic Gems

Chapter 609 Top Ten Sales! The Overlord Demon Plant Takes Center Stage!

The Preston witch's bloodline power could not be stabilized, and she was forced to transform from a white dragon into a human body. A magical robe-like garment, like a red cloak, automatically flew out from her astral ring and draped over her body.

At the same time, Preston looked at the black and gold fern spear not far away. She coughed and couldn't believe that she, as the white dragon princess of Golden Crown Mountain, would lose to a wizard from the outside world.

'I used a limited wish-granting spell and the White Dragon's body, yet I was still defeated!'

Preston the Witch was somewhat incredulous. She stood up, drank a bottle of potion, and her magical pressure returned to its peak in a very short time.

She looked at the black and gold fern spear and frowned deeply.

That eerie feeling emanated from the fern spear, and the combination of the domineering and abyssal transformations produced a result that even Locke had not anticipated.

Under the mechanism of convergent evolution, abyssal energy can be transformed into a domain that radiates in all directions. Furthermore, by utilizing the mechanism of abyssal energy assimilating nearby magical energy, an abyssal domain can be summoned, continuously decomposing the magic power of the wizards within it.

This explains why the Preston Witch failed in her protracted battle with Locke using dragon breath, and why her bloodline went out of control.

The Preston witch frowned, looked at Locke, and remained silent. 'Judging from the stats, my mana pressure is the same as his, but my total mana pressure is higher.'

'My spell conversion damage is higher than his. My Limited Wish spell can turn the impossible into the possible. He's inferior to me in every way, so why did he still win?'

At this moment, the wizard referee announced the result of the match. "Locke Augustine wins, one point added."

Locke beckoned, and the black gold fern spear automatically fell into his hand.

At this moment, countless wizards' eyes were fixed on the Abyss Devourer Fern Spear in his hand.

Locke didn't put the special magical plant away. Instead, he held it in his hand and continued to expand his Abyss Domain to deconstruct the surrounding magical energy, essentially advertising his product.

Many wizards have started ordering their own wizard shoes.

The Preston Witch said to Locke, "Young Locke, judging from the outcome of the battle, it's true that my previous suggestion was arrogant. The premise of a win-win situation is being able to see the other party's true needs."

"Actually, I should have conceded first in this competition."

Locke's expression softened as he looked at the Preston Witch. After all, she was his senior and a member of the Academic Committee; he didn't need to ruin their relationship. "Senior, I can learn a lot from this battle."

"Therefore, this battle has been very beneficial to me."

The Preston Witch glanced at Locke and said, "Young Locke, I have my parents' guidance, and they will comment on my performance during the competition. I can also consult with my teacher, Ekaterina, who is my benefactor; I grew up with her."

"Even so...why can I still not beat you?"

Locke was stunned. In fact, if it weren't for his Abyss Devourer Sea Gold Sand, even if he used the total magic pressure of the Forest Sanctuary, he would still be the one who lost.

The main reason is that Preston's white dragon body was simply too overpowered.

Locke pondered, "Perhaps it's because you have too much?"

The Preston Witch chuckled and said, "Brother Locke, I admit defeat this time."

"However, now that you've defeated me, you'll have to take on the responsibilities of our Academic Committee. Currently, you're the most likely candidate to win the Dimensional Conquest Tournament."

"You need to be careful, that kid from the Fisher family."

The Preston Witch walked up to Locke and whispered, "He's definitely not just got a lot of equipment. Let me ask you, if you used a bunch of high-level magical artifacts, do you have enough magical pressure to control them? What's the maximum number you can control?"

Locke paused for a moment, then noticed Antoine Fisher's unusual behavior.

"He has a big problem," the Preston witch whispered. "You should calculate his total magical pressure."

Locke did the math. Based on Antoine's race records, Locke came up with a surprising answer.

It was more than ten times my own magical pressure!
This is even far above the magical pressure of his own forest sanctuary.

The Preston Witch whispered, "You've noticed something amiss. How could a first-ring wizard have such a large amount of magical pressure? That guy looks like he's not quite right in the head. But he's definitely not an idiot."

“His personality is a bit strange, but he is not a weakling. You have to be careful. I spoke with Julian before, and when she fought Antoine Fisher, she found that no matter how powerful her magic was, Antoine Fisher was always one step stronger than her.”

"That's weird."

The Preston Witch patted Locke on the right shoulder. "Alright, don't worry too much. If I run into that kid first, I'll sound him out for you, Locke."

After Locke defeated her head-on, the White Dragon Princess immediately changed her strategy and decided that Locke was the Academic Committee's trump card. She then began to think about how to clear obstacles for Locke.

Locke said to the Preston Witch, "Thank you, senior..."

The Preston Witch waved her hand and said, "I'll treat you to drinks and a game of finger-guessing next time. But now I'm going home to my parents to review what happened."

The Preston Witch summoned a frost steed, mounted it, and left.

Locke, however, fell into deep thought.

It seems that securing a spot in the Silent Grail Plane Conquest Tournament won't be so easy this time.

This is, after all, a competition for the best resources to become a second-ring wizard.

Antoine's total magical pressure... is indeed very strange.

Locke looked toward ring number 2 and saw Antoine decisively knock his opponent off the ring with a magical artifact.

Antoine looked at Locke provocatively, but when he noticed Locke scrutinizing him, he paused for a moment, then turned and left, completely unlike his previous image as a spoiled brat.

“This guy’s arrogance is probably an act,” Locke said in a low voice. “I’ve heard the wizards of Yunze Wetland say before that some people can pretend to have a certain personality for decades in order to win a certain competition and make the enemy lower their guard.”

"If Antoine is that kind of person... then he's really pushing himself too hard."

Locke took out the Ganoderma lucidum plant. "Never mind, let's check my stats first."

Locke looked at the Arthas leaderboard and saw that his wizard shoes had already broken into the top ten in sales!

Because of his recent series of battles, including a dragon-fighting duel with the Preston Witch, the Black Gold Fern Spear that fell from the sky is unforgettable for many wizards.

As a result, sales have been soaring since the beginning.

It was clear that a wizard was calling his students to go to Arthas's store to buy their wizard shoes.

The competition still has two days left, and Wizard Shoes are a very useful piece of equipment, even in ordinary times.

More importantly, this is the first product they released, the No. 2 Overlord Element Overlord Transformation Plant.

Of course, there are also downsides.

I received a lot of text messages on my private account in Arthas. Several magic weavers came to me and sent me messages complaining through friend requests.

Things like competing with them for business and not giving them a way to survive.

There are also those who say they broke the unspoken rules, and they're going to sell products on days related to "magic plant" (a plant-based product).
