Recent appearances of powerful creatures within the Magic Stone Mine and the sudden ergence of the Doomsday Sect made Lynn sense a hint of danger.
The forr wasn't sothing he could ddle with. Even if those legendary wizards joined forces and couldn't solve this trouble, his own efforts would likely be futile.
The latter concerned Ougust, the current overseer. However, Lynn wasn't about to entirely rely on others for his safety. Finding a way to enhance his own strength, to adeptly deal with potential threats, beca an urgent matter.
Continuing to advance in wizard ranks seed the best choice, but he had only recently ascended to the Second Circle. Despite the enormous power gained from the "Eye of Death" not yet entirely depleted and his magic still in rapid growth, the distance to the next promotion remained substantial.
So, Lynn had to approach this from another angle. Just like when confronting Herlram previously, with the computational support of nine Third Circle wizards, he could briefly contend even against a Fifth Circle Grand Wizard!
Though during that encounter, he had outwitted Herlram and caused a magical backlash, leaving Herlram's strength reduced to rely about thirty to forty percent of his original power. Still, it was enough to crush the strength of ordinary official wizards!
Precisely because of this, during these days in Grenreil, besides preparing speeches and experintal materials, Lynn spent most of his ti crafting new "Rings of Arcana."
To distinguish them, these newly made rings weren't as glamorous as Harof's and didn't transport the wearer "beyond space-ti." Instead, they connected to a planet within the magical realm. The brain was currently working fervently to quickly determine the location for the second assembly.
Ultimately, Lynn settled on twelve people for this journey! The reason for limiting the number was twofold: first, his brain's computational capacity was limited, and more computational power didn't necessarily an better results.
Secondly, the magical realm was in its nascent stage. If too many people were brought in at once, there was a risk of exposure.
As for the legendary wizard Harof, who had previously entered the magical realm, Lynn didn't dare allow the brain to attempt deciphering his ntal frequency. Given the huge gap in their strengths, it might be noticed. The true targets were those Third Circle wizards.
With a "Diversionary Force Field" for defense and "Spatial Vibrations" as an offensive asure, even when facing a Grand Wizard, he wouldn't be completely defenseless.
Two days later, at noon, within a temporarily leased magic shop in Grenreil City, the place was already packed.
"Is this the glass mirror?" a young witch marveled, holding up a palm-sized round mirror. Its flawless, smooth surface perfectly reflected her charming faceporcelain skin, crimson lips, even the strands of hair drifting across her forehead were crystal clear.
Almost instantly captivated, she couldn't put it down. Apart from its clear reflection, the glass mirror itself looked like a work of art.
However, its steep price made the young witch hesitate. The larger and more high-end the glass mirror, the higher the price. A full-length mirror was priced at a whopping twenty magic coins! Not a small sum even for wizards!
"Beautiful witch, these miraculous glass mirrors are exceedingly rare, and their crafting process is extrely complex. For instance, the largest full-length mirror has only one piece left. We don't know when the next batch will be made. If you miss today, who knows how long you'll have to wait..."
Darren, in charge of sales, incessantly explained the rarity of the glass mirrors, emphasizing their low production and the throngs of people eager to buy. If she waited even a minute longer, they might all be sold out.
Seeing this, the young witch couldn't afford further hesitation. She bit her lip and imdiately used all her savingsthirty magic coinsto purchase the largest full-length mirror and a small handheld one.
Gleefully, Darren opened a drawer and stacked the earned magic coins inside. In just half an hour, the whole drawer sparkled with the glint of coins.
Lord Lynn's hunger marketing strategy was simply brilliant! To cater to apprentices and commoners with limited purchasing power, apart from the best-selling glass mirrors, they also produced many equally exquisite glass utensilsteapots, cups, and even trays. Their prices ranged from seventy silver coins to five magic coins, but compared to their extrely low production costs, it was almost like highway robbery.
However, other wizards saw it differently. These exquisitely crafted glass products were symbolic of status and position. Soon, a wave of purchasing glassware swept through Grenreil City.
Quite a few savvy wizards intended to buy in bulk, planning to resell at a higher price in other cities within the wizarding domain.
Also sold out were two books: "Fundantals of Nurology" and "Advanced Nurical Studies." So wizards were curious about the thin and pristine white pages, while others were solely interested in nurology.
Tiek was among them. When he heard Lynn's lectures on nurology at Iyeta Harbor, he was deeply impressed by the subject's intricacy and rigorous logic. Naturally, he was highly interested in nurology.
Thus, upon learning that a master of nurical studies from the Society of Mystical Arts intended to invite twelve formally recognized wizards who excelled in arithtic to tackle a major nurical problem, Tiek beca instantly intrigued.
Confidently, he believed he could be one of the twelve. After all, compared to other wizards, he had attended nurology classes two months earlier, laying a solid foundation.
With these thoughts, Tiek didn't even bother looking at the so-called "Fundantals of Nurology" but directly flipped open the more advanced "Advanced Nurical Studies." However, upon seeing the first question, he froze.
"Find the sum of the formula 1^2 2^2 3^2 4^29999^2!"
After confirming he hadn't misread the exponent symbol, Tiek couldn't help but gasp. Adding squares from 1^2 to 9999^2 would take up dozens of pages just to write out the entire formula. It might take days or even half a month of sleepless calculations to arrive at the result!
And this was only the first question!
