Lord Wizard: Starting your studies with infinite magic crystals!

Hearing this, Delhi felt relieved and nodded.

"It's good that you've considered everything, young master. Please continue."

Wayne nodded and got down to business.

"First, Auntie, what I'm entrusting you with is the plan to start population accumulation. My sister has already selected three plots of land for me. I'll choose one later and tell my sister, and then you can start sending recruited people there to coordinate things."

"Once you get there, go find your sister, the Marquis of Rose. She will help with the arrangements and oversight. You will be responsible for having recruiters gather people from all over the country to settle in the Rose Territory."

Murora nodded.

"Don't worry, young master, I will get things started as soon as possible."

"But since we're focusing on population growth, shouldn't we temporarily suspend the purchase of ordinary supplies and instead concentrate on population growth?"

Wayne shook his head.

"We can proceed on two fronts without any pause; just increase the recruitment numbers."

After Murora nodded, Wayne looked at Derry.

"Uncle, your task is much simpler. It is to train the existing trainee dragon knights and recruit trainee dragon knights. When I am not around, you will be in charge of the selection and recruitment of dragon knights at the dragon knight recruitment meetings held every three years and the one that will be held in the next year. You are also familiar with the recruitment process. As for the matter of Grandpa Linus overseeing things, I will inform him when I go to buy the array plates tomorrow. When you are recruiting, just have Andrew or someone else inform the old man."

"it is good."

Wayne nodded and said again, "As for the dragon contracts, train the candidates after you recruit them, and arrange the contracts when I return."

"Furthermore, I estimate that since the last recruitment announcement, students at level four and above will likely temporarily return from their travels to participate. You can simply accept all the results according to the process."

"it is good."

Delhi agreed.

Wayne waved his hand again, and 50,000 top-grade magic crystals appeared on the table, clattering all over the floor.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Wayne looked at Murora and said, "Here are 50,000 top-grade magic crystals. I'll entrust them to you, Aunt, for management. They will be used to recruit manpower, purchase resources for dwarven blacksmiths, prepare dragon knights, and for your daily training, materials for dwarven blacksmiths, and resources for dragon knights."

The words fell.

Murora also came to her senses at this moment, and asked in a somewhat puzzled tone.

"But we don't need that many."

Wayne shook his head.

"This is not a one-year resource purchase, but a resource acquisition for the next three to five years."

"And don't be blinded by these top-quality magic crystals. You must understand that whether they are dwarves or prospective dragon knights, their level will not remain unchanged over time. The resources they need will only become more expensive, the number of people they recruit will only increase, and the resource requirements will only rise, not fall."

Murora nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"Young Master, I will take care of distributing the resources properly, so please rest assured."

Wayne nodded.

"I trust your mother to do things properly."

.........

The next day arrived.

Wayne arrived at the entrance of the ninth floor of the library after exchanging two Level 3 Array Diagrams.

As soon as I entered, I saw Linus wiping a crystal ball.

"Hey, is the old man playing ball?"

Linus looked up and saw it was Wayne. He replied in a slightly teasing tone, "Yeah, playing ball. When you get old, you can only play fake games, unlike you young people who have someone at home who plays for real."

Wayne rolled his eyes.

"Alright, you're so knowledgeable and talkative, I can't argue with you."

Linus burst out laughing.

"Tell me, what brings you here to see this old man?"

Wayne didn't beat around the bush and stated his needs directly.

"I need to order ten level-seven array plates from you, including functional, offensive, and defensive array plates."

Upon hearing this...

Linus glanced at Wayne suspiciously.

"Who are you going to kill?"

Wayne chuckled softly.

"What's wrong?"

"The old man isn't interested in such low profits; is he planning to become a hitman?"

"Go away, go away~"

"You're just joking with an old man."

Wayne smiled and then explained, "I'm planning to go out and test some things, so I've come to you to buy some life-saving supplies."

"To save my life?"

"You don't look like you're trying to save your life; you look like you're about to have your property confiscated."

After finishing his sentence, Linus steered the conversation back on track: "But we still need to be careful. Although things are orderly now, it's always better to have your life in your own hands."

"It's just that you're asking for a lot. This old man will have to make a trip to gather all the necessary items for you. Are you not in a hurry?"

Wayne calculated the time before asking, "Is half a month enough?"

"Time is tight, but it'll be enough."

"You can come and pick it up in half a month."

Wayne nodded, then tossed out two top-grade magic crystals. Linus caught the two crystals with a slight raise of his eyebrows.

"What's wrong?"

"To send a beggar away?"

Wayne couldn't help but laugh out loud: "If you're a beggar, then there aren't many rich people in the world."

"This is the payment you are receiving in advance. I will be gone for two or three years. During that time, I will have Uncle Deli in charge of recruiting dragon knights. You will have to go and keep an eye on things when the time comes."

Upon hearing this, Linus didn't rush home, but instead frowned and asked in return.

"You've been gone for so long?"

"You're not planning to cultivate anymore?"

"Or is it that you've been a hermit for too long and need to be released all at once?"

Wayne didn't rush to reply, but instead opened his arms and answered with a relaxed expression.

"You should take a look at my current level before you speak."

Upon hearing this, Linus curled his lip: "Nothing more than level two..."

But before he could finish speaking, he was surprised when he sensed Wayne's true level.

"Are you on drugs?"

"How did you become a Level 3 Archmage so quickly?"

Wayne shook his head.

"It's just that my cultivation is a little faster. Besides, as you know, once you reach the third level, there are hundreds of thousands of array diagrams and runes. The rest depends on time to hone your skills. That's why I wanted to go out and test my theory."

Upon hearing this, Linus shook his head: "This is not just a little bit faster. It seems that your mental strength is much stronger than others, otherwise you wouldn't be able to imprint runes so quickly."

He paused for a moment as he spoke.

"Okay, I agree to this. Come back in half a month to pick up the array plate."

Upon hearing this, Wayne nodded, and after chatting for a few more minutes, he took his leave.

.........

It was evening.

Wayne looked at the palm-sized, blue whale-shaped airship in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.

"Young Master, how is it?"

Wayne nodded.

"Great, with this airship, our journey will be much easier."

Then he asked another question.

"Besides the airship, have you purchased the dragon food and magical plants I asked you to gather, as well as many daily necessities and the cultivation resources you need?"

Aurora, sitting opposite her on the sofa, nodded.

"Don't worry, young master, everything has been purchased. It's more than enough for us to eat for ten years."

"As for cultivation resources, I have purchased level four gold knight level resources, which is enough for my own cultivation even if we return in three to five years."

After everything was purchased, Wayne nodded in satisfaction. At this moment, Aurora asked curiously.

"Young Master, when do we depart?"

"No, we should ask our master where we're going!"
