Wizard Bloodline.

Chapter 149 Exploration, Harvest, Space Energy Beads

Caroni followed the green-robed witch's gaze and saw the bald wizard from the Molten Crystal Lake and the black-robed wizard wearing a feather mask from the Black Nightmare Swamp standing side by side, facing the many water screens suspended above the Mirror Lake, talking in low voices.

Soon, the two of them each took out some things, and then drew runes in the air, as if they were signing a contract.

Caroni naturally knew what they were doing. This was almost a reserved entertainment activity for the two of them every time they met.

A small "betting game" is a competition of the wizards' performance in the exploration.

For powerful wizards like them who are standing at the top of level three and are about to step out of the fog, there must be something that can arouse their interest and kill the boring time in their long life.

"Aren't you going to join in?"

The green-robed witch bit into a brightly colored fruit and said to Caroni, "They don't mind having two more people join in. If you want, I can come too."

"never mind."

Caroni shook his head, picked up the bottle in his hand and took a sip, and said: "You know I have never been interested in this kind of game.

I'm not as confident as they are.

We, the French Circle, have not been rooted in the south for long, so our foundation is still a little lacking.”

"But just waiting like this is too boring."

The green-robed witch sighed softly, and seemed to want Caroni to participate in this gambling game.

Caroni knew the character of the person in front of her very well. She was restless but had a spirit of adventure. She was interested in anything exciting and challenging, but she lacked enough courage, so she hoped someone could accompany her.

"If you really want to."

Caroni thought about it and made a suggestion, "We can have a try, but the stakes can't be too high. You know, I..."

"Great Caroni."

The green-robed witch readily agreed before Caroni finished speaking.

"Honestly, I've been waiting for you to say this
Molten Crystal Lake and Black Nightmare Swamp are much stronger than both of us. The chances of winning the bet against them are too small. We are the opponents who are evenly matched..."

Caroni glanced speechlessly at the excited green-robed witch, and then the two agreed on the bet and signed the contract.

Everything was done, and the green-robed female wizard could not wait to lift up her skirt and move closer to the water curtain images on the Mirror Lake. She stared at the figures of the magic ring wizards on the screen, muttering to herself, as if she was quickly calculating her chances of winning in this gamble.

Looking at the other person's back, Caroni's eyes flashed slightly, and he calmly took out a communication stone and lit it gently.

"Well, did she agree?"

"Yes. I specifically added the Star Spirit Orchid seeds and reproductive flower juice you wanted to the bet. The wizards of the Thorn Palace have always regarded these two things as their lives. Without this method, they would never take them out."

“Well done Karoni. I’ve asked Orion to keep an eye out for what you wanted during his exploration.

If there is nothing in the Mirror Garden, I will give you additional compensation.
The point is, are you sure that the arrangements you made can successfully win this bet?"

“Valina of the second ring, and Clemens of the seventh ring.

They are all first-tier seeds.

They may not be very competitive against the geniuses from Molten Crystal Lake and Black Nightmare Swamp, but if they just want to defeat the people from the Palace of Thorns in the second area... it shouldn't be a problem."

Caroni put down the communication stone in his hand, fixed his eyes on two of the water curtain images in front of him, and then took out two brand new communication stones from the storage ring and began to inject information into the communication stones respectively.

Ronan looked around the room before him.

In the center is a black high-legged four-poster bed with translucent gray curtains. There is a silver candlestick on the bedside table next to it.

On both sides of the wall were heavy velvet curtains on one side and delicate tapestries on the other. The color of the tapestries had faded a little, and they had some patterns that Ronan could not understand.

Next to the four-poster bed, there was a white desk with a bare surface. There were a few feather pens scattered around, and there seemed to be a few open notebooks or books.

Apart from that, there were a few gray wardrobes, two empty shelves, and a silver dressing mirror embedded in the partition wall pillar. There was nothing else.

This is like a bedroom just for resting.

It was completely different from what Ronan had expected, that the scene would be full of bizarre things, ancient wonders, and murderous intentions.

There was a slight energy fluctuation coming from the space ring.

Ronan took out a communication stone, turned it on, and Clemens' voice came from inside.

"Ronan, are you okay?"

"It's good. It's very peaceful around here."

Ronan responded.

"Where's Derby? Can you hear me?"

"I'm fine here too."

A calm yet slightly unfamiliar voice responded.

It was another seventh-ring wizard besides the two of them, with a high ranking, just behind Clemens. Before the three of them came in, they exchanged communication marks with each other.

"Then explore on your own, and remember to contact me in time if there is any situation.

If we can reunite, that would be great.”

Clemens cut off the call.

Ronan didn't care. After entering the secret realm, the three of them didn't know where they were sent to. It would be difficult to meet each other. They could only rely on luck.

Just as he was about to put away the communication stone, Ronan found that Clemens had another message coming, and this time his tone was much more serious.

“Damien, be careful of people from other forces you meet in the secret realm.

Generally speaking, plundering fellow wizards in secret realms is a condoned act...it is even seen as a more advanced way of gaining, of course, the premise is that your strength is strong enough.

I just got the news that the internal struggle in this exploration operation may be more intense...
You should take care of yourself."

Ronan's eyes flickered a few times before he put away the communication stone and ignored everything else, turning his attention to the room in front of him.

He first walked to several shelves and wardrobes. There was a thin layer of dust on the empty shelves, and the wardrobe was also empty.

Ronan tapped lightly on the cabinet door with his fingers, then walked to the desk, picked up the scattered papers and notes on the desk and looked at them.

It was all blank, with no writing left.

It must have been erased by magic.

It can be seen that the owner of this room must have left quite calmly. He packed up everything and had no intention of leaving anything for later generations.

Ronan spread out his mental power, and with his keen perception, he carefully explored the entire room.

Finally, he found a palm-sized cloth bag in a small secret compartment at the foot of the bed, which contained some herbal powder and a flat metal box.

Under the passage of time, the herbal powder has long turned into dust.

The metal box contained an unknown black ointment, which still had a slightly pungent smell. Probably something that the owner of the room had forgotten, Ronan quietly put the two things away, and when the exploration was over, someone would come to appraise their value after he left.

After exploring the entire room, Ronan planned to leave, but after looking around, he did not find any door.

Just as I was wondering, I caught a glimpse of the silver dressing mirror on the wall and then I reacted.

"I almost forgot.. this is in the Mirror Garden."

Ronan walked to the dressing mirror and easily found a row of rune marks on the edge of the frame.

After writing them down one by one, he slowly injected his mental strength into them.

After five or six runes were activated in succession, there was no reaction. When the last rune was tried, ripples like water waves appeared on the surface of the dressing mirror in front of him.

Ronan took a light step forward and appeared in a long and narrow corridor.

The walls on both sides of the corridor were also bare, with traces of things hanging on them. Ronan kept his mental power dispersed, while pressing his fingers on the wall, gently stroking the wall as he walked.

After walking about ten steps, I finally found a straight, shallow dent on the wall.

After a little exploration, he finally succeeded in opening a "portal" on the dent that led to the inner room.

Keep your status at full capacity, stay alert and step forward. What appears before your eyes is another room that is not much different from the previous one.

A moment later, Ronan walked out of the room and continued exploring.

He continued with his previous operation and explored five or six rooms in a row, but found nothing.

Ronan couldn't describe how disappointed he felt, because no risk meant no gain.

Many things in this world are equal.

And just after he finished searching the seventh room, he planned to leave as usual by using the mirror passage that must exist in the room.

Unexpectedly, this time when he walked out of the room, what appeared before his eyes was no longer a narrow and monotonous white corridor. He appeared at the entrance of a small garden with a fountain.

A low fence encloses a beautiful little milky white house. Behind it is a gravel path with green plants on both sides, leading to the unknown. The entrance we came from is no longer visible.

Ronan was not surprised but happy instead. This was a bit different.

He stood outside the fence and looked around the garden. At first glance, this garden was quite similar to the mysterious garden he had entered many times before.

There are also rattan tables and chairs in the garden, two unknown fruit trees, and a swing hanging.

However, there was nothing on the tables and chairs, and everything in the garden looked much more real. It should be because no one had taken care of it for a long time. There were weeds everywhere, and the living space of the originally planted flowers had been completely taken away by the weeds.

Ronan stepped lightly into the garden, ready to deal with any attack from the transparent, distorted humanoid figure.

But until he walked around the entire garden, nothing happened and he didn't encounter any hidden space teleportation array.

"Not every Mirror Garden wizard has the same bad taste as the owner of the Secret Garden."

Ronan thought to himself, turning in the direction of the house.

He walked smoothly around the fountain and came to the door of the milky white house, and knocked on the door twice politely before entering.

Naturally, no one answered.

Pushing the door open, the scene inside was still very ordinary.

There were several plates filled with food placed next to the oven by the window in the living room, dining room and kitchen.

Ronan walked over. The food on the plate had already weathered into dregs, and there were some silverware next to it that had not yet been divided.
Ronan's eyes lit up slightly.

Turn around and look at the whole house from his perspective.

He quickly pictured a scene in his mind - the owner of the house was entertaining guests and had baked delicious food for the occasion.

But before they could enjoy their meal, something happened. The people sitting on the sofas and chairs got up in a hurry and went their separate ways.
The owner of this house did not seem to be as calm as the owners of the rooms he had met before when he left, and seemed a little hurried.

Being in a hurry means that something might be missed, and Ronan might gain something.
Ronan acted quickly, first carefully surveying every corner of the first floor.

This floor may be a pure living area, without any remnants of magic props or magic materials.

Of course, Ronan’s main target is also the second floor.

I walked upstairs step by step along the almost rotten wooden floor, making a creaking sound under my feet.

The air on the second floor was a bit turbid, with a faint pungent and foul smell.

Ronan quickened his pace, and when he stepped onto the second floor, what appeared before him was a messy laboratory, with crystal vessels and glass bottles and jars everywhere that had not been cleaned up in time, and transparent debris remaining on the ground.

On a broken stone slab directly opposite Ronan, some runes were slowly jumping.

He walked up quickly and saw that the runes, which were so dim that they were almost exhausted of energy, were constantly forming some twisted and scattered words on the only remaining corner of the broken stone slab.

"Failure... Taboo experiment terminated Ka... North"

Ronan tried hard to decipher the words on the stone slab and wrote down all the words that appeared, but he could not piece together any valuable information for a while.

At this moment, where he was standing, there were a lot of broken pieces of stone slabs scattered under his feet. This should be just an ordinary spell prop used for casual recording. It was not worth taking away, so it was destroyed artificially.

However, because it was not destroyed thoroughly enough, some of the contents that were once recorded on the stone slab reappeared under the stimulation of the disordered rune array.

Ronan simply put away all the remaining stone slabs and began to sweep away the things on the surrounding laboratory tables.

Unexpectedly, he actually found some valuable materials.

——A box of refined energy stones.

It can also be called an energy orb.

There are about twenty or so of them, big and small, with various attributes, colorful, like a box of beautiful glass balls.

In fact, it is to extract single-system energy and condense it into a crystal bead using special technical means.

To refine a high-purity energy stone, a large amount of high-level magic stones are needed, and success is not guaranteed.

This is an extremely luxurious alchemical method, and alchemical experiments that use such expensive materials are usually quite advanced.

It can be inferred from this that the owner of this small house should be of high strength. At least, in the alchemy experiments that a second-level wizard is qualified to try, materials such as energy orbs are not needed.

The most valuable items in this box of energy stones are three space energy beads.

Space energy orbs can be used to build artificial secret spaces, such as Benigo’s miniature secret space.

So far, the entire south does not have the technology to refine space energy and make it into space energy beads.

The three space energy beads in Ronan's hand are worth a lot of money.

"It's been so long since I left the Mirror Court, but the energy in these beads hasn't been lost much. They are still abundant and pure... The refiner's technique is quite advanced, and he is a master alchemist..."

Ronan sighed silently in his heart, and then put away his harvest.
