The Witch Christine said to Locke, "As much as there is? The market price for one bottle of Hive Mind Potion was originally ten thousand magic stones per bottle. I have a total of five bottles, which is a total of fifty thousand magic stones."

"But Locke, right now the price of Hive Mind Potion has multiplied to an exaggerated degree. The current price is three times the original, which is a total of one hundred fifty thousand magic stones. And I estimate it will continue to multiply further."

Christine said, "Right now, no one will sell Hive Mind Potion. But if Junior Locke helps me with a small favor, I'll sell you this set of Hive Mind Potion at the original price."

"Moreover, I'll also sell you Cloud Sea Mist Pine at the original price, at thirty thousand magic stones per plant."

Locke looked at Christine with confusion, "What kind of favor?"

Christine said, "You're going to the Land of Six Towers anyway, so I originally wanted to entrust you with this matter. I just couldn't figure out how to get you to agree."

Christine smiled and said, "Who knew, my luck is good. I happen to have exactly what you need."

Christine said, "Do you know about Hand of the Jungle?"

At the gathering of fellow students, most of the First Circle wizards showed confused expressions, but each one pricked up their ears, ready to listen to this information.

Wizard Anthony suddenly understood, "Oh, so it's that organization. Christine, you joined them too?"

"I didn't expect that with your serious personality, you would actually join that kind of organization."

Christine smiled somewhat helplessly, "No, how could I possibly join that kind of organization. But the problem is, our Four Seasons Garden's academy director actually... actually was persuaded by Hand of the Jungle, established cooperation with Hand of the Jungle, and together with Hand of the Jungle opened a cooperative apprentice training site."

Wizard Anthony looked at Christine sympathetically, "Then there's no helping it. Who told us that among plant magic wizards, there's originally a large portion of people who have the potential to become Hand of the Jungle members."

"But I know, if your superior has someone from Hand of the Jungle, that's simply a nightmare."

Locke asked curiously, "What are you two talking about? I still don't know what kind of organization Hand of the Jungle actually is."

Witch Christine turned to Locke and nodded, saying, "Sorry, sorry, Junior. The Hand of the Jungle organization is a cross-wizard-land organization. There are important figures behind it. It's said that behind them are some Second Circle, or even Third Circle level important figures supporting them, so their influence is quite large."

"But because it's cross-wizard-land and the organization is massive, all their actions are not for profit, domination, or collecting magical resources."

Locke became confused, "Then what's it for? Is it a purely scholarly organization? That sounds quite interesting?"

Many First Circle wizards at the gathering of fellow students also looked at Christine with confused expressions.

Who knew, Christine's face showed helplessness.

Wizard Anthony's phantom was almost dying of laughter, "Mm... mm, it's roughly a purely scholarly organization. But this kind of organization can easily become obsessed, basically comparable to those from the Ghost Sacred Order."

"The Hand of the Jungle organization is a group of breeders, plant magic, animal magic, and other wizards who banded together to form... a scholarly organization that restores the ecology of various wizard lands and studies the natural ecology of various wizard lands. Although it sounds very proper, actually... in their hearts, maintaining local ecology is the first priority, everything else is unimportant, so it's very easy to cause resentment from many people."

"Moreover, they're quite extreme in their actions."

Locke understood. Isn't this just an extreme environmental protection organization!

So that's it. No wonder a cross-wizard-land organization has a name similar to a knight order. This is basically a wizard version of an extreme environmental protection knight order.

Wizard Anthony said, "I roughly know what Junior Christine is looking for Junior Locke for."

"Recently, the Adams Smith family, which focuses on researching griffin bloodlines, discovered that because the griffin forest ecology was destroyed, the griffins lost their natural breeding ability. The Adams Smith family invited many plant magic wizards and animal magic wizards native to the Land of Six Towers, wanting to solve this problem. Who knew that after two years, they still haven't solved this problem."

"Even their family's griffin population has already shrunk to less than ten remaining, about to completely go extinct. It seems the Adams Smith family was forced to choose to trust the Hand of the Jungle organization, which has the most motivation to restore the griffin ecology."

"It should be to have you escort a Hand of the Jungle scholar there, right? But this should be an ordinary task. How come, Junior, you still need to use favors like this?"

"Finding a First Circle wizard to escort that expert shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Christine showed a difficult expression, "Senior, you don't know the cause and effect, and even less do you know just how obsessed those wizards from Hand of the Jungle are. Every day I'm being tormented by them. Sometimes, I really can't stand them anymore."

Christine looked at Locke and explained, "Hand of the Jungle has already sent people to inspect and confirmed that the Olmega River upstream from the griffin habitat has suffered serious pollution, causing a certain magical fish that is specific food for griffins in the Olmega River to become contaminated, preventing griffins from eating that kind of fish."

"If griffins don't eat that kind of fish, they can't reproduce and lose their mating ability. Without griffins, the Adams Smith family can't conduct related bloodline research."

"Hand of the Jungle confirmed that the pollution of the Olmega River was caused by waste discharged from the bloodline modification engineering factory opened by another prominent family in the Land of Six Towers, the Ptolemy family. So, Hand of the Jungle and the Adams Smith family immediately demanded that the Ptolemy family close all industries upstream."

"The Ptolemy family naturally wouldn't be willing. So, I heard that they might hire black wizards to come attack Hand of the Jungle's ecological transformation expert, to prevent Hand of the Jungle from entering the Land of Six Towers."

Christine looked at Locke, "Junior, you don't know how difficult Hand of the Jungle's requirements are to satisfy."

"They require me to find them a First Circle wizard who can protect them, but with limiting conditions. They must simultaneously be a plant magic wizard, and also a breeder. Because Hand of the Jungle doesn't trust wizards of other magic types."

"After thinking it over, I really have no other candidates. Because generally those who are both breeders and plant magic wizards, as you know, won't have very high combat power."

"But without some combat power, they can't protect that Hand of the Jungle expert." Christine's expression wasn't very good. "Forget it, if you can agree, I'll still sell my Hive Mind Potion at half price."

"Because that expert has a terrible temper. I'm apologizing to you in advance on his behalf, Junior."

"Additionally, Hand of the Jungle will give you thirty thousand magic stones to hire you to protect this expert for a stretch of the journey, until you deliver him to the Hand of the Jungle's stronghold in the Land of Six Towers."

Christine said, "You don't need to worry about getting involved in any disputes, because although Hand of the Jungle people are troublesome, their influence is really quite large. They have influence in all major wizard lands. I don't know why, but their extreme ecological protection ideology still receives great support, and they even have many powerful wizards above them."

Christine said, "I estimate Hand of the Jungle's environmental protection business isn't that simple. Although I haven't figured out how they profit. But so many high-level wizards support Hand of the Jungle, it's very likely because Hand of the Jungle has a special way of making money."

"Junior Locke, will you accept?"

Locke thought for a moment. He looked at the gray stone tablet and discovered that several formal wizards he had contacted all told him there was currently no way to obtain Hive Mind Potion.

Then currently, within a very long period of time, even within ten years, the only possible way for him to obtain Hive Mind Potion might be right before his eyes.

Locke pondered for a moment and inquired, "What level of wizard did the Ptolemy family hire to come attack Hand of the Jungle's expert?"
