Wizard: This mushroom is too fierce.

"?" Roland's eyes widened. Good heavens, there's such a good thing.

He scrolled down and clicked directly into that post.

"Emerald Coast," "Green Cottage," and "Eternal Imprint Super Shop Alliance" were originally three independent wizarding organizations in the Deep Cavern area, specializing in running small magic huts that the Deep Cavern Academy was unwilling to run.

In recent years, with the continuous development of the underground world beneath the academy, it has attracted many wild wizards and adventurers to explore, and thus has gradually grown in size.

Judging from the posts, they seem to be raising funds to build a complex of high-end magical cabins on the outskirts of the Deep Cavern.

"I've already invested 10,000 magic stones!"

"Junior students, this is a super project that you'll never have a second chance in your life."

"If you have any spare money, you must join in."

"This project is a sure thing!"

The first comment below the post was the most popular. Roland clicked on it and found that it was a comment posted by a senior student.

【Name: Art】

[Titles: First-Class Wizard Apprentice, Holder of the Constructor's Badge, Second Place Member of the Golden Sands Power Team...]

A series of titles are displayed on his homepage.

Below his post, a flood of positive comments appeared.

"If Senior Art said so, then it must be a super good project."

What team is "Golden Sands Power"?

"That's someone ranked ninth on the student union's leaderboard."

"Moreover, Senior Art himself is quite strong, and he passed the Deep Cave Builder Examination at a young age."

"It's rumored that he'll soon become a partner in the Hengyin Super Store Alliance; he must have inside information."

This post was so popular that Roland noticed the entire "Miscellaneous Talk" section was talking about it.

Especially among third-tier wizard groups who currently lack magic stones, some have posted messages advocating for loans to invest and enjoy the life of a suddenly wealthy wizard, with many others agreeing.

In addition, Roland also found several posts seeking help, recounting their experiences of having their magic stones stolen.

However, these posts were irrelevant to him, so he closed them and turned his attention to the [Trading Area] to look for what he needed.

The investment project sounded good, and many people agreed with it, but Roland has always been cautious. He never tries things he doesn't understand, especially when it comes to his own money.

Compared to the "Miscellaneous Discussions" section, there are far fewer posts here, and the academy seems to have organized them specifically, categorizing traded items according to their characteristics. This allows Roland to quickly find what he needs in a particular section.

[Item: Black Flame Crystal]

Price: 100 Magic Stones

"Too expensive!" Roland immediately bargained after seeing the trade post: "Would you sell it for ten magic stones?"

Although Black Flame Crystals are rare, they are readily available on Black Wizard Lands; it's just that official shops don't allow them to be sold.

If they let it be sold, they could easily drive the price down to one magic stone, since dark wizards aren't considered human.

After finishing writing the bargain post, Roland ignored it and browsed the trading area, but found that he did not see any Starlight Insect Powder or antique magical artifacts with historical charm.

So he started a thread in the [Trading Area], looking to buy Starlight Insect Powder and antique magical artifacts with a strong historical flavor.

Then Roland left the academy forum and began to develop advanced meditation techniques.

This unique "Destiny Meditation Method," belonging exclusively to the Hunter's School, was directly taught to Roland by his teacher, Ashus, through specific means.

Therefore, Roland skipped the stage of learning complex spell models and went directly to the rune construction stage.

Roland closed his eyes and activated the spell model in his mental space. The next moment, his mind surged, and a large amount of mental energy poured into the spell model, thus constructing a complex and intricate five-pointed star.

Within a few breaths, a large number of starlight began to appear in Roland's mental space. They evolved step by step in Roland's mental space, eventually outlining a vast and boundless star totem.

The totem masked the face, revealing only a pair of eyes, which Roland met.

The next moment, Roland seemed to see countless tiny runes intertwining, entwining, and piecing together, layer upon layer, deducing and combining.

They are disordered, yet they seem to contain some kind of rule; every combination is so reasonable.

Just as Roland's mind was completely immersed in it, a murmur suddenly reached his ears: "Yet another one who dares to peek into fate."

Cold sweat, horror, Roland's scalp tingled. His avatar in the mental space suddenly turned around, and a portrait left him speechless.

A giant of the stars stood in the boundless starry sky. He stretched out his palm, and invisible threads connected each star to a star. On those stars, powerful beings would occasionally appear out of nowhere. They roamed freely in the universe, yet they seemed to be completely unaware of this giant of the stars.

The stars shift and the seasons change

Roland heard a notification in his ear: "Fate Meditation Technique Experience +1"

[Basic Meditation Experience +1]

......

With his mind returning to his body, Roland was soaked through, his face filled with the relief of surviving a disaster.

"Is that a kind of pollution?" Roland's face turned pale, and he lay limp on the bed, pondering the question carefully.

The "Encyclopedia of Pollution" written by a sociologist mentioned that during meditation, wizards are often drawn to something in the astral plane.

This contamination could be from an astral behemoth, or it could be a celestial trajectory... and the contamination he suffered this time might be a magical contamination. Roland guessed that he might have seen what the predecessors who created this meditation method had seen.

Although this is uncommon, it is still a possibility.

[Meditation Method: Destiny Meditation (Beginner: 1/100)]

[Effect: For those who foresee destiny, a second choice appears on your path (you can make one additional choice with each rune evolution).]

Meditation is the process of constructing master runes and building your own world.

This world reflects the manifestation of a wizard's own knowledge and professional system.

Take Professor Ashius as an example. He originally came from the Summoning School, and the extraordinary cultivation he learned was also for cultivating extraordinary beings.

However, during his long period of study, he gradually developed his own ideas, and thus began to construct body-refining runes in his later runes.

The main runes are those related to bloodline and physical evolution, such as the "Bloodline Separation Rune" and the "Physical Frenzy Rune". The former is a necessary rune for Ashus to modify his bloodline, while the latter is a core rune that injects super energy, allowing Ashus to double his combat power after activation.

The Fate Meditation Method allows Roland an extra choice during this process. For example, following his current path, he wants to continue studying Phytochemistry and then condense a "Phytochemistry Modification Rune." This rune can help Roland make reasonable modifications to Phytochemistry plants. In addition, he also wants to continue studying botanical combat spells to condense a classic spell initial rune, "Oak Armor."

Having two rune paths running in parallel would inevitably overload Roland's mental space and make it dangerous. The Fate Meditation Method helps Roland generate more inspiration and more rune choices during the rune construction process, allowing him to simplify his runes while carrying more effects.
