Inside the laboratory on the 22nd floor of the Black Tower.

Xiao Ba went to Varona to play, while Green stayed in his laboratory, working alone for several hourglasses of the Truth Face Phase III Project Eagle Eye Project according to the research progress, and then began his research on self-sealing witchcraft.

On the experimental table, there is a perfectly sealed blackish-gray biological hide with only one cut and one hole.

This was precisely Green's unexpected discovery in the Nest World of the Ear-hole Rabbit.

When a wizard sees this pelt, the first thing that comes to mind is probably to use the fur to create a wizard's robe or an auxiliary artifact for sonic magic, taking advantage of its ability to conceal sound waves.

But Green's wisdom allowed him to see the sealed skin beneath the soft fur.

Regarding knowledge of self-sealing magic, Peranos once mentioned the study of silkworm pupae, but this was far too abstract. At least in terms of silkworm pupae specimens in the wizarding world, it was difficult for Green's wisdom to provide any inspiration for his research on self-sealing.

Perhaps the research path that Senior Sister Youquan is taking is what Professor Peranos mentioned.

Green privately named the fur "Sound-Avoiding Fur".

Green's current task is to carefully remove and preserve the black and gray hairs from the skin of the Sound-Avoiding creature.

Each of these black hairs is about 15 centimeters long, very smooth, and there has never been a case of two hairs getting tangled together.

"what?"

Having plucked only a small piece of the Sound-Shielding fur, Green noticed something unusual.

Beneath the hair, the cortex has natural patterns and textures that seem to correspond to some mysterious rules, much like the elemental power rules that wizards use in their magical runes.

Beneath the mask of truth, two-colored eyes gleamed. Green carefully held the tweezers, slowly plucking the hairs from the Sound-Avoiding Skin one by one.

This specimen is an extremely rare and precious specimen.

After a few hourglasses.

"Senior Brother Green, Eight Rainbows and Nevis!"

Outside the laboratory, Vivian knocked on the door. Green, who was slowly plucking the fur of the Sound-Avoiding Beast one by one, gently put down the tweezers, left the biological specimen research laboratory, and went to the hall to open the door to the room.

"Third Senior Brother."

After performing the wizard's salute, Vivian looked at Green's shoulder with her large eyes, then at what was behind him. Not seeing Xiao Ba, she couldn't help but ask, "Senior brother, where's Ba Hongniweixi?"

"That guy went to hang out with your senior brother Varo."

Green took out several purple fruits from the nest world from the dimensional gap. Each fruit was the size of a head. Under the combined forces of repulsion and attraction, the fruits quickly squeezed out two large cups of juice, emitting a chill and fragrance.

Vivian's eyes lit up after taking a sip.

"Senior brother, what kind of fruit is this? It tastes very unique."

Discarding the fruit scraps, Green slowly savored the fruit with a straw, saying calmly, "It has no name. There are countless creatures and fruits in this alien world. A fruit like this, which is not very useful in the wizarding world, is whatever you want to call it, whatever you want to name it."

grunt.

After taking a big gulp of juice with relish, Vivian whispered, "Senior brother, how about I name it Vivian Fruit?"

With a smile, Green patted his junior sister's head: "Okay, what's wrong with that? From now on, it will be called Vivi Fruit."

After showing his curious junior sister around his lab, Green took out some of his trophies and collectibles and slowly recounted the history behind them.

The little girl listened with great interest, as if she herself were displaying great power in another world and becoming a demon hunter wizard admired by all.

"Brother Green, I want to be like you in the future, a demon hunter wizard, and go to other worlds to spread the great wizarding will."

Vivian spoke with eyes full of longing.

Green smiled and said, "By the way, my tutor said you're the inventor of the permafrost crystal ball. What's that all about? What's a permafrost crystal ball?"

"Compared to the Venus de Milo that you invented with your wisdom, my Eternal Crystal Ball is nothing. But I don't know why, many wizards really like my invention."

Sitting on the sofa, after initially sipping the juice in large gulps, Vivian began to imitate Green, slowly savoring it with a straw and adding some honey.

Venus, the goddess of love...

The memory is a bit distant. Green said, "Alright, when you have the chance to see Senior Sister Youquan in the future, she will definitely like you very much. Show me your invention!"

"Alright, but the sale rights to my Eternal Crystal Ball have already been sold to the Isa family. Let me take you to the Isa family's shop on the first floor of Black Tower."

Amrund's wife, Belle's family?

"Okay, sure."

Vivian walked ahead with her little magic wand in hand, while Green followed leisurely behind.

Most wizard apprentices' magic wands contain a sealed spell. While a professional wizard's magic wand can increase the power of the spell by a percentage at a certain attack level, it is completely useless for a wizard apprentice.

As she descended the stairs, Vivian recounted in a low voice the process of inventing the Everlasting Crystal Ball.

"In the first lesson on elemental magic, a friend of mine said that he was determined to become the strongest wizard apprentice. At that time, the instructor on the platform said, 'Then first invent a bottle of Venus, the goddess of love.' After that, all the wizard apprentices knew about you."

After a pause, Vivian continued, "Later, I combined my knowledge of Crystal Skin and the Light Element and accidentally invented the Eternal Crystal Ball, which was bought by the Isa family for a high price. At the same time, my mentor found out about me."

Green nodded, then suddenly asked, "And what about your friend?"

"She...she was killed during the new recruit trial because she didn't invent anything and wasted three years of her life."

Vivian's voice was somewhat low.

Clearly, she had also experienced the dark period of those dark wizard apprentices and was grateful for her own starfall, trying hard to hide her discomfort.

Is he dead...?

After thinking about it, Green felt it was normal.

This foolish act of gambling with one's life is not the true wisdom of a wizard; his initial success was merely a foolish stroke of luck.

The first floor of the Black Tower.

Vivian led Green to a shop filled with crystal balls. A shrewd girl saw Vivian bringing a wizard and quickly went to greet them.

"master."

The girl was clearly acquainted with Vivian, and bowed to Green.

"Hmm, let me see the Permafrost Crystal Ball invented by Vivian. Tell me about it."

The girl smiled gracefully and took out a crystal ball from the shop, saying, "The image crystal ball we sell has the function of automatically recording images and playing them back eternally without any cost. Some wizards like to record images of their lovers, friends, and even relatives and pets from their youth and keep them forever."

Green stared in astonishment at the crystal ball in the girl's hand, inside which was a mischievous little vulture grinning mischievously, so lifelike.

Wizards' crystal balls have image recording capabilities, but that's just the wizard using their mental power to replay their memories.

For a wizard, casting a spell on their crystal ball to recall images is completely unnecessary; it's much easier to simply access their own memories.

But now...

This permafrost crystal ball has actually managed to record and play back its own data!

"Senior, do you also like the permafrost crystal ball I invented?"

After a long silence, Green nodded: "A very good invention, very good."

After saying that, Green looked at the girl selling timeless crystal balls in the shop and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "I want to order a few timeless crystal balls. These are their images."

Green materialized the images of Chris, Binghamson, Robin, and Raffi using his crystal ball. The only difference was that Raffi's image data only included his head.

After one hourglass period.

In the Grimm Laboratory on the 22nd floor of the Black Tower, a huge crystal sealing vessel emanated a great deal of cold air. Grimm carefully opened the lid of the sealing vessel and placed the crystal ball inside.

Looking at Raffi, who had fully recovered, and at her peaceful expression reflected in the crystal ball, as if she were silently watching him, Grimm smiled and shed tears beneath the Mask of Truth.

Closing his eyes, Green concealed his emotions and retrieved the crystal-sealed vessel from the new dimensional gap.
