Chapter 665: Chapter 416: Half a Third Rank Wizard (5k)
“Because of the farmlands…” Colin looked at the worry on Shelley’s face and sighed in his heart.
“Can that pollution be resolved?”
“It’s difficult,” Shelley shook his head. “Until now, we still haven’t found a single clue.”
“The nature of the farmland pollution is sowhat similar to Tainted babbling. If researched for too long… it could lead to self-transformation and loss of control.”
Colin was slightly startled… It has the sa properties as Tainted babbling?
He furrowed his brows unconsciously.
If the pollution in those farmlands was like Tainted babbling, where prolonged observation and contact could lead to a Wizard’s loss of control, then finding a solution would undoubtedly beco much more difficult.
Like Tainted babbling, although it has been a thousand years, Wizards are still helpless against it to this day. Part of the reason is obviously because Tainted babbling leads Wizards to degenerate and transform, which greatly complicates research…
“However, not long after you left, the Supre Council also sent a few Wizards to specifically investigate the farmland pollution, but it’s uncertain whether they can find so solutions.” Shelley continued.
“I hope there will be good news,” Colin said.
“Yes, let’s hope so. If we can’t resolve the farmland pollution soon, we’re going to be in big trouble,” Shelley sighed.
The two exchanged a few more words and then each walked into their laboratory.
Swoosh!
The Silver Chamber unfolded like flowing water.
Colin stood in the middle, yet he couldn’t calm his mind.
Tilai Plain is Neustadt City’s largest food supply area, and now it has suffered a devastating blow. It’s only because the city-states are intact and the granaries are still full that a temporary stability is maintained.
Colin didn’t know exactly how much grain was stored in the entire Neustadt region, but he feared they could last at most for a year or two.
After one or two years, if the farmland pollution remains unresolved, without new food supplies… a great famine is bound to erupt.
Famine… to Colin, it was a distant term.
But any normal person knows it’s a devastating disaster. Exchange children for food, starved bodies spread across the fields… these simple phrases describe unspeakable tragedies.
“Maybe Neustadt City could seek so grain support from other Wizard Cities?” Colin suddenly thought.
Under the threat of the Divine, the nine great Wizard Cities are on the sa front and should, in all reason, support one another.
However, even so, Neustadt cannot always depend on the aid of other Wizard Cities; in the end, the food issue must be resolved.
Moreover, whether the food production of the other Wizard Cities could sustain the large population of Neustadt was still unknown, and even if they could, where would the serfs who once lived off the farmlands go?
These are not simple problems…
As thoughts continued to flash through his mind, Colin slowly sat cross-legged on the floor.
If the Wizard World was a giant vessel, then in the past, he was at most a rotten plank on the deck, insignificant, rely drifting along with the ship.
But now, both in terms of strength and status, he was no longer insignificant; at the very least, he was a sailor, aware that the giant vessel was now sailing through treacherous seas, so he must think more.
The survival of this ship was closely linked with his own. He did not want to leave everything to the control of others.
Just like this, he sat in ditation, letting his brain wander for a while, then Colin took out the Tin Saint ditation and the Hodgia ditation crystals, starting to examine the Third Rank content.
At all tis, increasing one’s strength is never a mistake.
Hodgia Holy Ring ditation—this is the ditation thod he currently practices.
It’s primarily composed of what he was now examining, the Hodgia ditation and Tin Saint ditation.
Tin Saint ditation is mainly aid at increasing Magic Power; Wizards who practice this thod will have significantly more Magic Power than their peers of the sa Rank.
Hodgia ditation mainly focuses on enhancing the fine control of Magic Power.
Both Limit Breaking and fusing these techniques, the Hodgia Holy Ring ditation inherits the strengths of both and is of excellent quality, enough to place it among the top tier.
With a thought, Colin summoned the Golden Paper.
Behind the Rank column on the paper, the progress had unknowingly reached 98/100.
More than two years have passed since advancing to Second Rank Wizard, and now he was about to advance to Third Rank Wizard.
The speed was fast, but Colin was not satisfied.
Nois hadn’t told him the status of those Divine entities sealed in the Star Realm or how long they could be suppressed.
But judging from the current situation, things clearly didn’t look optimistic.
Placing the Knowledge Crystal on his forehead, Colin continued to read the Third Rank part of the ditation thod.
When he was on Blackstone Island, he was cautioned that it was best not to touch knowledge far beyond his current level prematurely, to avoid being contaminated and leaving behind unnecessary hidden dangers.
Colin’s curiosity was never strong, and he naturally took such advice to heart; hence it was now the first ti that he earnestly and carefully read the Third Rank stage of the ditation thod.
The essence of a Wizard’s practice is the continual growth and sublimation of the soul.
This principle applies to every stage of a Wizard’s practice.
It’s just that each stage, due to different specific circumstances, manifests differently.
For an Apprentice, the key point of practice lies in increasing the Spirit to break through the Spirit Fog.
There are no shortcuts to this step; it’s just constant ditation, constant learning, expanding one’s Spirit.
