Chapter 113 They are destined to die for me
"The ability to obtain Star Shattering Stones depends on strength, and a little bit of luck."
"Losing money is your own fault for not being able to keep the Shattered Star Stone shop open. It's not because you're not good enough."
"If the Star Shard Shop were truly a scam, the official wizards would surely have dealt with it; how could they possibly let it remain open indefinitely?"
"If you're not good enough, don't blame Lu Buping. It just means you're unlucky and lack ability."
"Like me, I run a small shop selling Star Shards and have earned almost 10,000 Magic Stones. I'm still making money now."
The speaker was a wizard with very large nostrils.
When the wizard spoke, he tilted his head slightly, giving the impression that his nostrils were pointing upwards.
Maud said, "Wizard Merben, it's your skill that you can earn magic stones. However, there are far more people who lose money than who make money with Star Shards. Just because you can earn them doesn't mean everyone else can."
"You can't say that. Saying things like that is just blocking someone else's path to wealth," the big-nosed wizard said to Leo. "New guy, if you're interested in Star Shards, contact me. I'll help you find a reliable Star Shard shop to run. I guarantee you'll make a fortune."
Leo smiled and said, "I'm sorry, although I appreciate your kind offer, I have no interest in that."
"If you're not interested, then forget it."
The big-nosed wizard waved his hand and said, "After all, even if the money is right in front of you, many people will choose not to pick it up because they're worried it might be a scam. There are countless people who fail to seize opportunities."
"But I hope that when you regret it, you won't think of coming to me. After all, I'm very busy, and I can't always give you a chance."
The big-nosed wizard snorted twice and walked away.
The other six groups quickly followed suit.
At this moment, a rare hesitation appeared on Wizard Mord's face. She said, "Wizard Leo, although I did say earlier that it's easy to lose money with Star Shattering Stones, I can't deny that it might be my own incompetence. What Wizard Merben said earlier wasn't without merit. Just because I can't make money doesn't mean others can't."
What I'm saying is ultimately just my personal opinion.
Leo smiled and said, "Wizard Mord, my decision wasn't based on what you said; rather, I felt from the beginning that Star Shards were unreliable. His statement that he couldn't make money doesn't mean others can't, and that makes sense."
"But conversely, just because you made money doesn't mean others will necessarily make money. Isn't that a valid point?"
"Ah...that's true." Maud was taken aback at first, then couldn't help but smile.
"Wizard Leo, it's really nice to be friends with you. Your words always make me feel comfortable."
Leo smiled and said, "When I'm with friends, I prefer a good atmosphere when we're communicating."
The work in Pera's lab is divided into morning and afternoon sessions.
Leo was in charge of the morning's affairs, and the afternoons were his free time.
Leo opened the Book of Knowledge and continued studying advanced potion-making.
As for spells, Leo has enough variety for now; he only needs to steadily improve his spell mastery.
Leo now wants to focus his energy on breaking through to the Wizard realm.
Leo had previously thought that the nobles' century-long plan posed no threat to wizards, but the events he encountered on his trip to the Twin Continents served as a wake-up call.
A mutated creature, a wandering wizard.
This seemingly simple gathering in the central region may well encounter risks that even wizard apprentices would find difficult to withstand.
Therefore, Leo believes he needs to improve his strength as much as possible.
In the central area, there is the White Tower, a building that has existed since the Tower of Dawn was built.
Inside the tower, most of the official wizards of the Tower of Dawn are gathered.
The top floor of the tower is where the tower master resides.
A wizard went down to the floor below the top floor.
This floor is spacious, with only a closed stone door.
The wizard was tall and slender, but not burly; in fact, he appeared rather thin.
The wizard arrived at the stone gate and placed his fingertips on the middle of it.
Then the wizard said.
"Augusta, it's me, Ex."
"Come in."
The wizard disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already in the top-floor area.
There were no lights in the room, but a light butterfly, formed by light, was fluttering around.
These light butterflies serve as the source of light, illuminating the entire top floor area of the White Tower.
Apart from the light butterfly, the room is simply furnished.
The research table, several large-capacity storage bags, and all the magical tools needed by wizards were included.
A man stood by the window with his hands behind his back.
The man exuded an extremely terrifying magical pressure, and he made no attempt to conceal it.
This man is Augusta, the tower master of the Tower of Dawn.
Augusta turned around, revealing a pair of eyes shimmering with numerous runes before the wizard. He said, "Ex, have you come to me because you've confirmed the crown's characteristics?"
"Not yet," Wizard Ax shook his head and said, "I'm searching for someone in the Tower of Dawn who matches the characteristics of the 'Crown,' as you instructed."
"I've checked all the wizards who meet the requirements for the crown, including the royal family of the Kingdom of Sogra, princes and princesses from mortal kingdoms and demi-human kingdoms."
"However, we still cannot find anyone who meets the requirements for the crown."
Wizard Ax said, "Augusta, I think you seem too anxious about this prophecy. This prophecy is already quite unusual. At least, in this Sea of Sinking Light, no wizard can directly rewrite your prophecy spell and prevent you from becoming a second-circle wizard."
"That's hard to say," Augusta said. "The development of the Tower of Dawn that we've built over the years has far exceeded our expectations; it has become a towering tree. But this towering tree is now facing the scourge of termites that are causing it to collapse from within."
"If this prophecy can spread within the Tower of Dawn, then it has nothing to do with those wandering wizards. It is more likely that there is a traitor within our ranks."
The wizard X asked, "Do you think Esmond's disappearance is related to the mastermind behind this prophecy?"
"There must be some connection. I can see that the threads of divination are connecting to some unknown place. At this moment, I am caught in the middle of a battle between two divination spells."
"If my prophecy concerning the Prospers comes true, I will ascend to the second circle upon its fulfillment. If the prophecy of this crown comes true, my path to the second circle will be severed; this is my last chance to become a second-circle wizard."
"Augusta," Axe said, "I know you're anxious, but it's your own fault. You shouldn't have involved the Pros in the first place. Otherwise, Esmond wouldn't have cut off all contact with you and gone to the gathering to become a mentor. If he were still alive, we might have been able to uncover the mastermind behind the Crown Prophecy if we had joined forces."
Augusta looked helpless and said, "Ex, you don't understand divination spells as deeply as I do, so you probably don't. Even at a level close to the second rank, I can only make divinations based on the existing environment."
"And I'm sorry, the Protoss are the most suitable part of my prophecy; they are destined to die for me."
