What's wrong with me, a mage, loving to farm?

Chapter 114. The Flowering Tree at the Bottom of the Sea

seabed.

Air coral base.

At this time, the area of ​​the air coral base was expanding at an exaggerated speed, with bubbles visible expanding into the seawater almost every second.

Even Kroa couldn't help but sigh when he saw it.

"It's like a completely new map every time I come here."

"But such rapid progress... could it be an advancement in magic?"

He was a little curious, so he examined all the corals again more carefully.

Unfortunately, there was no sign of evolution or change in the spell imprint; it remained the original bubble spell.

This felt a little strange to him, but he didn't think much of it.

Perhaps a qualitative change has not yet been achieved.

He headed straight for the north side of the air coral base—where the slope became steeper as he went down, forming an almost 90-degree bend.

Finally, you'll reach a deep trench where the bubbles formed by the air corals stop and cease moving forward.

Because further ahead lies the trench and within it, one can vaguely see the continuous eruption of deep red lava, which occasionally glitters in the dark trench like the suddenly lit eyes of a demon.

The magic of the ocean is extremely volatile here.

The water magic and fire magic collided, eventually forming a violent and unstoppable turbulent current.

Not many fish come here; only a few fish that are very fond of fire magic, such as ribbonfish, swim here.

Anything that can live in such an environment, whether it's a magical plant or a magical beast, must be extraordinary.

"Is this the power of heaven and earth?" Kroya stood quietly inside the air coral bubble, watching the occasional red light in the distance.

Honestly, it's a bit scary.

"But are the air bubbles of this coral really that stable in this kind of environment?"

He touched the bubble with his finger in confusion and felt that it was quite tough. Even when facing the raging magic in the distance, it remained quietly and unmoved.

Inside, there was a very obvious flow of fire-attribute magic.

"..."

"Perhaps, you are the greatest masterpiece I have ever created."

Kroya had to admit that the air coral was beyond his imagination.

They seem to be sophisticated instruments that analyze magic, constantly adapting to their surroundings and changing according to the different magical properties of the environment.

Always keep the bubbles in their perfect state.

It is like a natural part of the changes on the seabed, rather than an outsider on the seabed.

"If you continue to develop this business, you might actually surprise me."

After observing for a while, Kroya left the bubble and swam directly towards the distant underwater volcano, shielded by its protective barrier.

As he drew closer, the surrounding fire magic became increasingly volatile, even beginning to impact his magic shield.

However, Kroya remained calm, mobilizing all her magic power, including the Mermaid Song, to draw upon the ocean for her aid.

Other mages would never be as relaxed as him.

And so, he gradually approached the flowing lava on the seabed and the edge of that incredibly deep seabed fissure.

Upon reaching this position, the surrounding fire magic was already incredibly violent.

Bright lava was bubbling not far in front of us.

Each bubble is filled with destructive fire magic.

Amidst such raging magic, the magic shield surrounding Kroya resembled a ball, as if it were about to be slapped away at any moment.

"We can't hold out for too long; we need to finish this quickly."

He took a deep breath and took out the crystal bottle containing the Ether Moss from the seashell artifact.

"Click~" He pulled the cork out.

The Ether Moss, submerged at the bottom of the crystal bottle, sensed the surrounding magic and immediately perked up, which had been incredibly thirsty.

An invisible wave emanated from it.

However, due to the existence of the astral crystal bottle, it can only transmit power through a narrow opening, which is at most one centimeter wide.

The transmission of power is extremely difficult.

Even so, the results were still outstanding:

The surrounding flame magic seemed to be drawn to something, converging towards this place at a visible speed, like tentacles growing out of magma.

Kroa kept staring at it.

Upon seeing this, he decisively threw out six magic crystals and carved a six-pointed star magic circle pattern on the flat rocks on the seabed.

This kind of magic circle is actually a very simple magic circle that allows the same magic to communicate with each other, but it can only be used for magic with almost the same magic structure.

Then the astral crystal bottle was placed in the center of the magic circle, causing the rock to sink and trap it.

"Let's begin."

He immediately activated the Magic Field Technique, and six intertwined crystalline branches grew from the magic array based on six magic crystals.

It began to grow at an extremely rapid pace, following Kroya's will, extending closer and closer to the air coral base above.

If it were just six level-one magic crystals, the roots of this magic field certainly wouldn't be able to extend very far, but now it's different.

The Etheric Moss, surrounded by the roots of the Demon Field, is continuously drawing in the surrounding fire magic in order to absorb magic power.

However, because it was confined inside the astral crystal bottle, the amount of magic it could absorb was negligible. All the excess magic was absorbed by the magic crystals of the Magic Field Method, helping the branches extend.

However, the Ether Moss was able to capture a small amount of magic power to sustain its activity, making it even more eager to absorb more magic power.

This cycle continues, and eventually, the magic power flows continuously along the branches created by the Magic Field Method towards the Air Coral Base.

"I really am a genius. This kind of semi-natural array is much more effective than any magic gathering array."

"That should finish now."

Kroya nodded in satisfaction.

Just in case, he observed the area carefully for a while.

Only after confirming that it was operating according to his own ideas did he continue to set up more magic arrays around it to prevent fish from crashing in.

He got up and left about ten minutes later.

He swam back to the air coral base and began to use his magic to envelop the branches created by the extended magic field, guiding them successfully into the bubble.

The air corals seemed quite unhappy about having this foreign object stuck in their precious bubbles. It took a lot of coaxing from Kroya for them to calm down.

At this point, Kroya's plan was more than halfway complete.

The only remaining task is how to extract the magic power from the branches of the Demon Field Law.

Honestly, there is a very simple way.

However, in order to make things a little more difficult for those who came to the seabed to "mine" magic, he decided to use a slightly troublesome method.

Moss of the Demon Field.

It was the elemental magical plant that was discovered on the magical tree underground.

According to Kroa's experiments, these mosses also possess the ability to absorb magic power, and after absorbing magic power, they will grow small flowers in the shape of six-pointed stars.

The petals of the little flower are pure magic.

Perhaps the Archmage Eurydice on this island used the same method, but it's unclear what he intended to do with these magical flowers.

Because these Demon Field Mosses... can only absorb the magical energy from the branches created by the Demon Field Technique. Otherwise, even if they are placed directly on a magic crystal, they will not eat or drink.

It's like a unique derivative creation of the Demon Field Law.

"Hmm, it's actually quite beautiful."

He watched as the moss he had sprinkled immediately clung to the branches, and then almost instantly sprouted into small, dark red, six-pointed star-shaped flowers.

These little flowers bloomed wherever moss was scattered.

It's just like a flowering tree in full bloom, blooming alone in the deep sea.

The reason they bloom so quickly is that the magic within their branches is exceptionally abundant.

As long as there is enough magic power, elemental magical plants can grow quite rapidly.

After they produced small flowers, Kroya tried to pick some—picking them required great care, as the roots between the flower stalks and the moss should not be damaged.

Because this magical plant has a certain characteristic similar to chives, it cannot be uprooted and can be harvested repeatedly.

This characteristic is the test that Kroa arranged for the flower pickers—the quality of the flowers reflects whether they were picked with care.

The rewards received will naturally be different.

At this point, his plan was complete.

They left satisfied.

……

As Kroa left the seabed.

On the beach of Hanjiao Island, next to the reservoir.

People have gathered here, and unlike when they were first dispatched, their faces now show more or less joy and anticipation.

Because... they completed their mission!

Now it's time to receive the rewards bestowed upon us by the Lord of Hanju Island, the great mage!

The happiest among them was undoubtedly Elena's brother—he worked very hard to find sea stone flowers, and would go into the sea to search for them whenever he had free time from training and duty.

So when Chloe gestured for Rob to come and make a wish, he was naturally chosen and stood at the very front of the crowd, behind Rob.

Others looked at him expectantly.

Some people couldn't help but exclaim, "You're really lucky, kid!"

"With the mage personally bestowing this reward, won't your old father be so happy that he'll go to the tavern a few more times?"

"Haha, I never expected to see our lord distributing rewards!"

Rob and the knights nearby had no intention of quieting them down, or rather, they were deliberately indulging them.

Make Cloa happy!

Samir, who was being teased by everyone, was not so happy, or rather, he was quite uneasy.

Because Robert had previously hinted to him that he should make a wish.

Being quite intelligent, he almost immediately realized what might happen in the future.

The heavy burden and responsibility of making a wish to Chloe fell on his shoulders, and he was really worried about whether he could do it well.

He clenched his fists, growing increasingly uneasy.

This unease continued until a figure flew down from the sky and landed lightly on the ground.

There is no room for retreat.

because,

Kroa has arrived.

Thank you everyone for your monthly tickets and recommendation votes.
