Because of his previous resume submissions, these small wizard organizations somehow obtained news and wrote to him every day, wanting to invite him to take up teaching positions but the problem was, he definitely wouldn't go to their places.

Locke glanced at the sender of the letter. "It's Archimedes Academy from the Black Wheat Underground Domain. Isn't that a wizard academy that mainly develops the Alchemy School? And it's inside underground mines."

Locke thought of the dwarf Tyne's disheveled appearance and couldn't help but shake his head. Forget it. He didn't want to go to that kind of place.

Locke opened the letter. The content was indeed the Dean of Archimedes Academy tempting him with all sorts of promises, such as promoting his teaching position once a year, guaranteeing him a senior wizard mentor teaching position within five years, and opening the Black Wheat Underground Domain's only formal wizard-level wizard secret realm to him to help him advance to liquefaction wizard within fifteen years.

Locke's face darkened because even without using any magical resources, he was confident he could advance to liquefaction First Circle wizard within eight years. Yet the Dean of Archimedes Academy actually thought he could do his best to help him advance within fifteen years.

What? Did he also know that his help meant the more he helped, the slower the advancement would be?

Locke said, "These wizard organizations from ordinary wizard lands can't be visited. They're just trying to freeload off me."

"If I were to go to those places, I might as well have Teacher Halen Vera write me a letter of introduction recommending me to the top academy in the Sunshade Peninsula, Fireweave Academy."

Locke snapped his fingers, causing the gray mist stone tablet to appear before him. The gray mist stone tablet was vibrating wildly, reminding him someone was looking for him.

Locke looked at the slate. In the past half year, he had added quite a few formal wizards from Halen Vera's network as friends and inquired about quite a bit of news from them, so it was normal for someone to come looking for him at this time.

"It's Wizard Anthony."

Wizard Anthony wrote on the gray mist stone tablet: [Junior Locke, I have news about the Druid's Ring you asked me about, but it's somewhat troublesome. She has special requirements. Can you establish contact with her gray mist stone tablet? I'll let her talk to you herself.]

Locke thought for a moment and chose to agree to the message request application she sent over.

Soon, through the gray mist stone tablet and the magical pressure transmitted from the other party, Locke sensed the other party was an ordinary formal wizard. The other party quickly sent over a video conversation application.

Locke said, "Video conversation? This requires subscribing to silver membership, right? Five thousand magic stones per month. I have the Augustus brand with income far exceeding formal wizards retiring in the southeastern quadrant, yet I don't dare spend magic stones to purchase silver membership. This ordinary formal wizard is truly wealthy."

Locke chose to agree.

Immediately, the image of a female wizard appeared above the gray mist stone tablet. The other party's age appeared to be only in her early twenties. Her face was a baby face, and she wore wizard robes that could be called luxurious, with gold and silver threads sewn on them.

At the core position on the chest of her wizard robes, she didn't wear a badge representing First Circle wizard status and affiliated faction, nor a badge representing her honors, but a badge representing her family.

At the same time, this person looked arrogant all over her face, not like a wizard exploring truth and walking alone, but rather like a proud noble young lady.

"I am from the Land of Six Towers, an upper-grade noble family, the Philade family's Peggy, Peggy Philade."

"Are you the potion studies genius Wizard Anthony mentioned, Locke Augustine?"

Locke looked somewhat speechlessly at the witch before him. This attitude was too similar to Lilith's Cottage's native seventy-two wizard families. It was simply an enhanced version of wizard families.

He hadn't expected that the person Senior Anthony found for him was actually a formal wizard from a wizard aristocratic family in the Land of Six Towers.

Locke frowned slightly. He didn't plan to indulge the other party and just nodded coldly.

This gave Peggy Philade a feeling of punching cotton with a fist, a sense of powerlessness. Peggy frowned slightly and soon realized her attitude had a problem.

Peggy slightly restrained the arrogance on her face. "Sorry, I rarely communicate with wizards from outside, so I treated you as a wizard from the Land of Six Towers. In our Land of Six Towers, all things are inferior, only family rank is high."

"I treated you as a wizard from an ordinary family. This is my mistake. Locke, your senior apprentice brother Wizard Anthony married into our Philade family and holds a high family position. He's my eldest brother-in-law."

"Since you're his junior apprentice brother, then we're family. You don't need to be formal with me."

Locke revealed a speechless expression.

No wonder Senior Anthony, although he liked to constantly boast at small-scale teacher-school gatherings, rarely mentioned what he actually did in the Land of Six Towers. It turned out he married into a wealthy family.

Locke said briefly, "I see. So, what business do you have looking for me?"

No wonder the other party, an ordinary formal wizard, actually had money to recharge five thousand magic stones per month to purchase silver membership.

Of course, the fact that she could use the Nibelung Astrology System externally should be because, like himself, she found a way to crack this system.

Peggy Philade said, "I heard from Brother-in-law Anthony's introduction that you're a potion studies genius specializing in Abyss potion studies."

"You only recently advanced to formal wizard, right? Hmm? You're actually already at the vaporization stage."

Peggy appeared very surprised.

Locke scanned the image Peggy transmitted. Her own room was even more luxurious than royal palaces. It appeared she had crowds of servants behind her. Most terrifying was that behind her were actually two ordinary formal wizards, old wizards serving as servants.

The strength of wizard aristocratic families in the Land of Six Towers was evident. That place was one of the rare places where wizard families surpassed wizard academies. Then the entire region's magical level, instead of advancing, regressed. Except for wizard tower technology, it had almost completely fallen behind the outside world.

Locke only glanced at this Peggy once and discovered that her permanent defensive field was full of magical structure flaws everywhere. He didn't even know how she managed to advance to formal wizard.

Very likely she was forcibly pushed up by resources, and probably even more outrageously than himself.

He only used resources to improve his cultivation speed, but observing Peggy's insubstantial mana, Locke even suspected that Peggy basically never worked hard herself and just relied on her family's resources to become a formal wizard.

No wonder wizards from the Land of Six Towers were getting weaker and weaker.

Such a First Circle wizard, as long as he was willing, he could massacre her in an instant.

Peggy raised her eyebrows and actually asked Locke a potion studies question. "Using Night Grass as the core material, what should be used as auxiliary materials?"

Locke was somewhat speechless. "Use seashell powder, licorice, and bellflower grass as auxiliary materials to reduce Night Grass's toxicity. Night Vision Potion also needs secondary materials to enhance medicinal effects, so Moon Well water and firefly cold light glands need to be added."

"But peripheral materials are also needed to fuse medicinal properties, so rootless grass juice and bee hive powder, among eleven other materials, are needed for configuration."

Locke was already out of patience halfway through. "As for heat control... first use fire attribute magical flame, high heat to extract medicinal properties for one minute, then switch to low heat for ten minutes, then switch to wind attribute flame high heat and press for twenty more minutes, then in the final ten minutes use water attribute flame and wood attribute flame continuously alternating between high heat and low heat to restrain medicinal properties..."

"Finally, finish with water attribute magical flame."

"Don't ask me such simple questions." Locke's gaze was cold.

Peggy was stunned for a moment, then looked at Locke with some admiration. "You're so amazing. Among potion masters in our Land of Six Towers, very few people can answer such difficult questions so quickly."

"Truly worthy of being the potion master recommended by my eldest brother-in-law."

Locke was somewhat speechless.

Night Vision Potion was the simplest potion. You're telling me that being able to answer this question makes me very impressive?

Are you kidding me?

Had the potion studies level of the Land of Six Towers declined to this degree?

Peggy said, "I want to invite you to come help me treat someone, and the condition includes magical resources including a Druid's Ring."

"As long as you agree, I can pay you the Druid's Ring first. And as compensation, as long as you cure that person, I can pay you 200,000 magic stones as subsequent reward."

"The prerequisite is that you can cure him!"

Locke looked at Peggy with surprise. 200,000 magic stones to treat one person?

What a grand gesture.

200,000 magic stones would require him to work for several months without eating or drinking.

This was still based on the situation where his brand, with Lady Irina's help, spread throughout the entire southeastern quadrant.

Wouldn't ordinary formal wizards hearing this number be severely tempted?

However, for him, the most important thing was undoubtedly still the Druid's Ring.

For the sake of money, Locke patiently asked, "What illness? What person?"
