Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 640 The World of Torrad (3-in-1)

In the days that followed, Roy was surprised to find that the Elemental Codex was quickly sold, bringing in a whopping 150 million.

This is a considerable fortune; with a little more, it would be enough to buy an unfurnished demiplane dwelling.

However, before he could even hold onto the magic stone, he immediately spent it.

Roy purchased over 3000 million magic stones worth of raw materials, intending to use his talent to refine Radiant Gold and use it, along with his existing stock, to create a puppet skeleton.

Immediately afterwards, more than 5000 million yuan was allocated to purchase and stockpile various supplies in preparation for unforeseen circumstances.

The rest were replaced with a large quantity of various materials, packaged, and sent to Araji.

That was for Celine to build an underground city.

Furthermore, there are items that were not immediately available for purchase but are necessary for construction, which they also intend to entrust to Tazhong for continuous procurement and delivery.

Sufficient reserve funds are prepared in advance for the procurement of various indigenous products, including enriched uranium, liquid nitrogen, and liquid hydrogen, to avoid shortages.

These expenses will quickly deplete his current supply of magic stones, and he may even have to spend a considerable amount more.

"I'm going to be broke again in no time. How can I spend money so fast?"

After thinking it over carefully, Roy realized that he wasn't actually short of money.

Because most of what he holds are valuable hard currencies.

Many of the jewelry pieces I had accumulated in the past were refined and increased in value through aesthetics and a "treasure sacrifice" approach, which was incredibly profitable.

Elemental gems have a slightly lower profit margin, but they still outperform those on the market, and the value of high-grade products is also substantial.

Radium water and radium salt are consumables, and not all wizards can refine them. They can be exchanged for a lot of magic stones.

If all else fails, the demonized uranium essence seized from the mage tower, the previously crafted demon eye apostles, the high-element matrix, and other puppets can be sold.

As long as a suitable buyer is found, everything can be monetized.

But why did they suddenly become poor?

It's because the scale was too large, and there were too many projects to undertake at once.

The construction of the underground city, as well as the "Celine Network" that controls the entire human world, have been major expenses over the past decade.

These expenses will immediately become a problem if they exceed the ability to generate cash.

Fortunately, it wasn't a big problem.

Once this period passes, the income from Gem Mushrooms and Sunflowers alone can reach hundreds of millions of Magic Stones per year.

At that time, there will be a continuous supply of gemstone dust available.

There is also enriched uranium produced by the natives, various enchanted metals, semi-finished alchemical products, and so on.

They can also easily exchange for magic stones and other materials.

"Perhaps this is the difference between an ordinary wizard and a lord wizard!"

"Forget about it for now. The problem will resolve itself after some time."

Roy understood the reason and began preparing to travel elsewhere.

Specialties from other worlds are essential for the growth of many wizards.

Whether it's enhancing mental strength or forging the three-headed dragon Trekephalos, you need to find the right product.

In order to achieve the "Soul Stone" and "Slicing Technique", Roy plans to first raise his mental power to over 300 degrees.

This requires some special treasures.

However, as everyone knows, the real treasures are in the hands of the upper echelons, and it is difficult for ordinary wizards to find a suitable opportunity.

Items like "Omrando Potion" can only be obtained through military merit; even if you have money, you can't buy them.

Strictly speaking, that thing is only worth tens of millions of magic stones.

However, the Wizard Tower had already monopolized the relevant knowledge and materials, with the aim of forcing wizards to choose only limited exchange channels.

Otherwise, if everything can be bought with magic stones, what's the point of having the Witch Tower and the Alliance?
This was also the reason why Roy wasn't very enthusiastic about exchanging magic stones before.

Although a wizard is an individual, in reality, as a supernatural being, capable of fighting against an entire nation, his needs are not easily met as those of an ordinary individual.

Real wealth is material goods and hard currency; true wealth is strength.

Everything else is fake.

However, not everything is within the control of the alliance.

For example, the blessings of sacred lakes and sacred mountains, treasures that embody the essence of heaven and earth.

This makes it more likely that the unexpected gains from an adventurous journey will lead to something more.

Just then, the girl's skull floated to Roy's side and reminded him, "The Mudman Society's witch Una requests communication."

"Oh?"

Roy was slightly surprised, but he still agreed.

"Lord Roy!"

Soon, Una's figure appeared in the crystal ball in front of Roy.

The artifact reflected the scene she was in, which appeared to be a traditional stone castle, with candlesticks, tables, chairs, and other objects all exuding an antique charm.

"I hope I haven't bothered you..."

But I have an urgent task here, I wonder if you'd be interested.

"Please speak," Roy said calmly.

"That's right, the world under the jurisdiction of one of our members has been invaded by monsters."

That's a world that produces important resources like magic crystals. If you request support from the Alliance, they will demand rights to those resources...

We need a wizard with a strength of level two or above to come and help.

At that time, we will pay you with locally produced magic crystals, as well as Torrad's specialty, 'Fruit Sprite'!

"Fruit Elf?"

"The name of that world, 'Torlad,' means 'fruit' in the Vizel language. It actually comes from a special kind of plant in that world called the 'Torlad Tribe,' which possesses life and spirituality."

You can think of them as a unique life form with natural activating energy, much like how you intentionally apply "activation techniques" to certain fruits.

"Ok?"

Roy was slightly surprised, but then he remembered that when he was training in "Animation Technique", he had animated clothes, shoes, socks, towels, toothbrushes, tables and chairs.

I've never actually tried applying it to fruit before!

But there are still mushrooms.

I don't know if that counts as a close relative.

Roy pondered for a moment, then inquired again about the plane in which that world was located, and the various potential hidden dangers.

Una said, "That was the private territory controlled by the high-ranking wizard Nabia, but after a thousand years, all kinds of dangerous monsters and resistance forces have long been eliminated."

If we have to talk about any risks that are difficult to control, it is probably that there is a rift that was once invaded by the Abyss Legion, which may cause another demonic disaster!
As you know, a world that has been invaded by the Abyss may bear the imprint of the Abyss's will, which may erupt again under the right conditions!

The monster invasion mentioned earlier is actually a hidden danger left over from thousands of years ago.

However, rest assured, the contract does not concern this matter. His Excellency Nabia is simply temporarily unable to return due to being away from home.

If a demonic calamity breaks out, you can retreat on your own, or sign a new contract with higher rewards..."

"That's it..."

Roy pondered for a moment.

"let me consider it."

******
After ending the call, Roy looked at the girl's skull and asked, "Celine, what do you think?"

As far as Una is concerned, the task she mentioned is not too difficult.

Going there to experience the exotic customs of another world and complete the three-headed dragon puppet would be a good choice.

However, this is something that cannot be rushed; he needs to think it over carefully.

The girl's skull pondered for a moment, then reminded her, "We need to consult the records of the Torrad clan."

Roy said, "This isn't difficult. Let me look for it."

Because he was in the Tower of Wizards, he had no difficulty acquiring ordinary knowledge. He summoned the red-skirted ghost, explained his needs, and was quickly satisfied.

The result was an unexpected discovery: the Torrad elves were indeed a unique life form with naturally active energy.

Furthermore, their existence has a special benefit for wizards like myself who specialize in "activation magic," namely, it increases the activity level of activation energy!

"Does regularly eating this fruit spirit enhance the activation of witchcraft?"

When Roy read this part, his eyes lit up.

"It seems that Wizard Una has put in a lot of effort, knowing that I find it hard to refuse this kind of thing!"

"The Mudman Society and the Stonemason Society were originally dynamic organizations that occupied the middle and lower ecological niches due to the extensive management of the Seven Towers Alliance."

Their positioning should be as a trading platform for resources and knowledge, where people can act as brokers or participate themselves by accepting task assignments.

Doing a good job in intelligence work is the most basic requirement.

The Path of a Maiden's Skull.

"In any case, it's worth going to see it."

Celine, I plan to take it on, but before that, I need to investigate Wizard Nabia and gather information about him…”

"Yes, I'll contact Wuta right away to see if we can obtain the relevant information."

After some discussion, the girl's skull began to seek advice.

Soon, the message was relayed back.

It turned out that Wizard Nabia was a senior wizard who was over 2000 years old.

He had previously served under other wizards, and after becoming a high-ranking wizard, he stayed in his own territory, the world of Torrad, occasionally going to a place called "Abundance Garden" to participate in witchcraft experiments.

"Fengrang Garden, what kind of place is that?"

Roy keenly grasped something.

"I looked up the etymology of this word and found that it is actually another place in the Vizel plane, a miniature world similar to the Chalk Country!"

Even its actual name is 'Black Soil'!
Perhaps it could be called the 'Land of Black Soil'!

"The land of black soil?"

Roy was shocked.

"That's right, it was also an experimental zone, but unlike the Cretaceous Kingdom which was dedicated to creating human souls, it was more inclined towards the field of planting and breeding."

In some myths and legends, black soil symbolizes abundance and fertility, and creatures created from it may possess strong vitality and reproductive ability.

But at the same time, its own flesh and blood also possess powerful fertility, capable of enriching the soil...

The name Fengrang Garden comes from this!

That wasn't something the wizard Nabia created himself; in truth, he was merely hired because of some special skill, serving as an assistant to the great wizards as a 'researcher'..."

"Speaking of which, the Cretaceous Country also had quite a few such 'researchers,' but they were all blown up later!" "Yes."

The girl's skull then told Roy about several related materials she had just found.

"Actually, besides the Black Soil Country, there are several other experimental zones surrounding Vizel, but none of them are as large in scale or as well-equipped as the Cretaceous Country and the Black Soil Country."

Generally speaking, wizards who have mastered knowledge in relevant fields will be considered after they have grown to a certain stage, and then they will receive employment invitations from those parks.

Some, like in the world of Astor, are invited by wizards who play the roles of gods there to serve as their assistants.

I suspect your information was also considered, but due to your young age and lower rank (not yet Level 3 or above), you haven't been included in the initial selection process.

Upon hearing this, Roy couldn't help but smile.

Although he possessed alchemical talent, this was something only he knew; no one else knew it.

To put it more bluntly, anyone who hasn't reached level three or above is considered a mere child under 1000 years old by the great wizards.

They really weren't qualified to be hired.

"However, compared to this, the place that is more suitable for me, the Land of Chalk, has already been bombed."

It won't be able to be rebuilt for at least several thousand years!
Each of the other miniature worlds has its own pool of candidates for evaluation, and it's not necessarily the case that additional personnel will be recruited on short notice.

After chatting for a while about the world of the miniature garden, Roy gradually understood that the reason why the wizard Nabia could not get away for the time being was because an experiment he was conducting had reached a critical moment and he did not want to give up all his efforts.

Fortunately, he had the resources at his disposal and was backed by an organization like the Mudman Society.

Finding a suitable person to manage it then becomes a logical step.

After understanding the cause and effect, Roy was actually inclined to accept the mission and head there.

However, the specific tasks and compensation still need to be negotiated.

So Roy went to see Una again to discuss it.

As the organization's professional broker and the liaison for the second stage, Una indeed grasped the bottom line of the negotiations.

She made the decision herself, awarding Roy one level-two rare fruit, ten level-one rare fruits, and one hundred level-zero rare fruits as a reward.

In addition, there are unlimited purchase rights for Level 0 Fruit Spirits.

"'Precious Fruit' is a rare variety of fruit spirits that possesses special spirituality, which can be understood as a special spirituality that is close to divinity."

According to legend, the activating energy of this fruit spirit comes from this.

This substance is valued for its quality, not its quantity. Once consumed, it can alter one's mental strength to a certain extent, thus achieving its intended effect.

After careful consideration, Una revealed the information she knew.

"To be precise, it is the wizard who eats it, which can enhance the magical power of 'Animation' and the associated spellcasting performance."

Those who consume the creations made through "activation techniques" will also have a lasting effect of activating energy retention, which is equivalent to bestowing upon them a true sense of natural vitality.

In the materials we have, there are many examples of dolls that ate this fruit and developed consciousness and life force!
You can think of it as a simplified version of life-creation magic.

To be honest, the maids you've seen before, the ones who accompany me...

It was created by eating the first-grade rare fruit from this place!

"Huh? Is there such a thing?"

Roy was somewhat surprised.

******
After some discussion, Roy and Una finally agreed on an irregular mission assignment.

During this time, he will solve a series of problems caused by monsters.

This includes, but is not limited to, guarding the manor, eliminating herds of beasts, and patrolling for defense.

Once the matter was settled, Roy began preparations.

Una wasn't idle either; she used all the resources she had to handle the procedures for his teleportation and stay permits.

Time quickly came to early November.

Roy, along with Alice, Prandelle, Nisa, and Freya, arrived at the inner corridor of the fifth floor of the Wizard Tower.

Among them, a large black cat named Domi was perched on Freya's shoulder.

She held a golden iron chain in her hand, and at the other end of the chain was a beast-like evil spirit wearing a collar, Senior Melina.

"Lord Roy, the teleportation array to the Torrad world you requested is ready."

The ghostly butler, dressed in black robes, gave a brief introduction before leading him and several followers to a room with a plaque that read "Little Garden World - Torrad".

"I've never seen this kind of nameplate before..."

However, I remember the information saying that these kinds of worlds are usually transformed from barren planets, belonging to special zones created through special methods!

Recalling the legends of places like the Land of Cretaceous and the Land of Black Soil, Roy roughly understood something.

This could potentially involve beings at the level of great wizards, and experiments concerning "creating worlds"!

Compared to "creating life," this kind of sandbox-like transformation is actually relatively easy.

Anyone with the will can use extraordinary power to massively transform the material world on a planetary scale.

Just like what I did in Mtraken.

Anyway, it's not like it was "created" out of thin air; it's actually just "modified."

Just as Roy was thinking this, the teleportation array was ready.

The ghostly deacon in black robes turned and left, leaving only the group of people behind.

"Let's go, to the world of Torrad!"

Domi, the black cat perched on Freya's shoulder, exclaimed excitedly.

The next moment, a feeling of weightlessness came over them, as if they had fallen into the deep space of space.

Amidst the interplay of light, creating a sense of time travel, the group seemed to be traversing a wormhole, continuously moving forward in a strange, kaleidoscope-like tunnel.

I don't know how much time passed, but finally I saw a planet shrouded in lush green life.

This is the destination of this trip: Torrad World!
……

"Welcome, Lord Roy!"
It is a great honor to meet you…

Shortly afterward, the door to the teleportation room opened.

Before the covered bridge of the enormous castle, several short but handsome orcs, whose genders were indistinguishable, bowed in greeting.

"Ok?"

Roy looked at them.

"Are you Fury Beastmen?"

“Your Excellency has great insight. We are indeed orcs from the plane of Furei.”

Since following the wizards, I have traveled to various planes and worlds.

And I, Salian, and my people, are here to serve Lord Nabia.”

The orcish creatures who greeted Roy proudly announced this.

Roy smiled.

This is actually a slave race, much like how high goblins serve as financial advisors and stewards for many spellcasters.

Due to both biological characteristics and the effects of indoctrination, this race known as the Furei Beastmen has been domesticated to the point that they have lost their own history and culture, and are completely dependent on the wizarding civilization for survival.

Even when Nabia is away from home, they can manage the entire world without any problems; they are extremely loyal and reliable.

However, this orc race is quite intelligent, but lacks strength. The strongest among them is only a low-level knight, capable of performing simple household chores.

They are best suited to be servants and handymen, and also perform some of the duties of housekeeper, accountant, gardener, etc.

Not suitable for guard duty.

Now that our home is facing a large-scale monster invasion, we can't rely on anyone else.

With these thoughts in mind, Roy stepped out as the orc who called himself "Sarian" bowed respectfully and invited him to leave.

A group of beastmen with animal ears and tails were already waiting outside, all kneeling on one knee with a respectful attitude.

In the center of the covered bridge, next to the kneeling orcs, was a huge, magnificent carriage, pulled by a tall, reindeer-like beast.

On the dark brown carriage, the magnificent sun emblem shone brilliantly in the sunlight, bearing the arcane mark left by a high-ranking wizard.

The Nabia family...

Under Roy's gaze, a girl dressed in gorgeous clothes, as delicate as a porcelain doll, stood there with a smile on her face.

She was beautiful, with porcelain-like skin that shone with a mother-of-pearl-like luster. She wore a wide, princess-like dress with a long train.

Several petite bunny-eared maids held up the hem of the skirt, her cascading hair tied into spiral curls with intricate lace ribbons, draped in large golden waves.

Surrounded by other waiters, they were like stars surrounding the moon.

"Mr. Roy, it's a pleasure to meet you."

My name is Deirdiri, the thirteenth daughter of Lord Nabia, and currently, I act as the acting governor of the main castle of the Torad world.

She lifted the hem of her skirt and gave an elegant bow.

"Ok?"

Roy was slightly taken aback.

But he quickly reacted.

"Ms. Deirdre, it's a pleasure to meet you."

After exchanging pleasantries, Deirdre mainly introduced Roy to the general situation of this world.

The monsters in the world of Torrad are not native to the region, but come from other places.

Unlike the once-in-a-century dimensional tides of "Nehbel," it is a special phenomenon that rises and falls annually in the nearby world.

It just so happens to be autumn, a year when the Torrad elves reproduce and bear fruit.

This situation only started in the last ten years or so, as the father, Nabia, was so focused on his work at "Fengrang Garden" that he didn't pay much attention to it.

This greatly troubled Deirdre and others, who tried every possible method but failed to eradicate the threat.

Until recently, the situation worsened, and several interdimensional communications urged Nabia to find a solution, which finally distracted Nabia a little, and he entrusted the Mudman Society to help resolve the issue.

While introducing the important matter, Dildeli couldn't help but secretly cast a glance at him.

Upon seeing Roy's handsome, almost bewitching, perfect features and feeling the extraordinary charm that suited his face, Dildili couldn't help but change her expression slightly, her eyes filled with genuine surprise and admiration.

"Lord Roy... is truly handsome!"
Aunt Una said she was going to introduce a super handsome young wizard, and I thought she was joking!

As she boarded the carriage, Dildeli couldn't help but let out a quiet sigh.

At this moment, Roy and the others boarded another carriage, pulled by reindeer, and galloped off towards a fairytale-like town below the castle.

The area is sunny, and the fortresses and towers are distinctly colored, creating a vibrant and diverse landscape.

　Today we've combined 3 into 1, Kaven, let's quickly enter the new world.
