Chapter 226 Miscellaneous
Deep in the Golden Garden of the Elosia plane, outside Jemin's underground laboratory, the air was filled with a faint plant fragrance.
Benjamin was communicating face to face with a young wizard sent by the Nolen Academy. He had a rather immature appearance and exuded the aura of a third-level wizard apprentice.
"Lord Jemin, please confirm again. Are you planning to sell all of your territory on the main plane of Elosia, except for this area with a diameter of less than ten kilometers centered around the Golden Garden, to Norn Academy?"
This young third-level wizard apprentice already knew the content of his mission through the mission briefing before coming.
But when he actually heard the decision personally spoken by the second-level wizard in front of him, who looked younger than him, he couldn't help but feel deeply surprised.
He couldn't help but confirm with Jieming several times in a row.
After receiving Benjamin's affirmative answer, he began to go through the tedious land ownership transfer procedures on the screen with an incomprehensible feeling.
Benjamin just stood aside calmly and watched the "slow" appearance of this third-level wizard apprentice. He couldn't help but think quietly in his heart.
It seems that the advantages brought by the extreme activation of soul and body are greater than I imagined.
In his current senses, all the actions of the wizard apprentice seemed to be performed in a "slow motion" state.
The movement of his hand, the sliding of his fingertips that manipulated the light curtain, and even the frequency of his blinks seemed slow and dull.
It’s not that the other party is really moving slowly, but his current “speed” is really too fast.
This "fast" not only refers to the explosive speed during combat, but also refers to the improvement in dynamic vision, nerve reflex speed, thinking processing efficiency and other aspects under normal circumstances.
In Benjamin's previous self-tests, he found that the current feeling of one second in his body was only about one-fifth of the normal time in the outside world.
This means that for wizard apprentices and first-level wizards, one second in their body perception is stretched into a long five seconds for Benjamin!
Although according to the data, the biological lifespan of a second-level wizard is only three to four times longer than that of a first-level wizard.
However, if we look at the "perceived time" of a second-level wizard, the world they can experience and perceive can be regarded as a "subjective lifespan" that is fifteen to twenty times longer than that of a first-level wizard!
This is an essential gap in the level of life.
Benjamin waited patiently. After a few minutes that seemed like an hour to him, the wizard apprentice in front of him finally "slowly" completed all the procedures.
Then, the wizard apprentice slowly raised his head and said to Benjamin in a respectful tone, "Master Benjamin, the redivision of your territory has been completed. All points earned from the sale of the territory have also been deposited into your personal account."
"Thanks for your hard work."
After saying goodbye politely, Benjamin couldn't wait to turn into a stream of light and return to his underground laboratory.
He immediately opened the magic network terminal and looked at the account balance column. The points had returned to millions, but he couldn't help but sigh deeply.
That’s right, the reason why Benjamin wanted to sell his territory was because he had no money.
Although Benjamin made a fortune in the Flame Frost Plane by relying on his military achievements and various spoils, he also had the unknown and precious income of "Red Dust Qi".
But if we deduct the huge debt he needs to repay to his mentor Clark and the Tower of Annihilation, and then deduct his promotion to a second-level wizard and the subsequent expenses of purchasing various supplies.
When everything was settled, he really didn't have many points left to use at his leisure.
His next plan - to fundamentally and completely transform the "lava giant" race - requires a vast amount of advanced biochemical transformation knowledge involving the origin of life.
Although Benjamin had been exposed to some similar knowledge before, it was obvious that the two sides were not on the same level at all.
Moreover, ever since he discovered his own method of body building, which allowed him to continuously improve his learning ability and talent under extremely high learning pressure, Benjamin began to look down on those basic knowledge with lower difficulty.
What he longed for was difficult knowledge that could truly get to the core.
If you want to buy some core knowledge from the database of Nolen College, even if it is not of such a high level, or is "useless" because of its high difficulty and narrow application range, it will cost a lot of money.
In fact, after being promoted to a second-level wizard, Benjamin started to produce "fine gold" without stopping, trying to gain more points by selling this high-value "raw material".
However, as the quantity he sold increased, the problem that Benjamin had worried about at the beginning finally appeared - with the Noren Workshop as the center, the material market of several nearby wizarding forces began to gradually become saturated.
It’s not that his “fine gold” is completely unsellable.
However, the sales speed of refined gold inevitably began to decline sharply. From the initial shortage of supply, it became necessary to wait for a long time on the trading platform before finding a buyer.
Because he had a "Second Level Training Agreement", Benjamin could sell the refined gold he refined through the vast sales network of the entire Star Ring Federation.
But the effect is not very good.
After all, the reason why "fine gold" has caused a sales boom in the Noren Workshop and surrounding forces is because this thing has some of the characteristics of level six materials, but it is still priced at level five materials.
In the market within the three major forces headed by the Noren Workshop, it is also considered a high-quality product with "good quality and low price".
But if you put it in the vast and boundless Star Ring Federation, the properties of "fine gold" are really too mediocre.
It has neither a resounding reputation nor any irreplaceable characteristics.
Almost as soon as Benjamin's "fine gold" was put on the shelves, it was drowned out by countless rare materials like the grains of sand in the Ganges, and no one was interested in it.
As a last resort, Benjamin had no choice but to sell his territory.
Anyway, the base he set up in the future would be the Purgatory Sulfur Plane, where the resources were purer and more suitable for his experiments.
This territory on the main plane of Elosia is not very important to him.
If it weren't for the opportunity to closely study the unique "divine power belief network" of the main plane of Elosia, he would even sell the golden garden.
With this huge capital injection, Benjamin no longer hesitated.
He couldn't wait to buy a large amount of advanced biochemical transformation knowledge that he had long coveted from the online knowledge base of Nolen College.
Among them, a lot of knowledge carries negative labels such as "too difficult to learn", "strict application prerequisites", and "average transformation effect".
It is precisely because of these defects that their prices are within the range that Jieming can afford.
However, for Benjamin now, "learning is too difficult" is actually a good thing.
In the following days, Benjamin's life once again entered that simple yet fulfilling rhythm.
He used the core of the newly cultivated second-level lava giant as the new "mother", and continued to cultivate more first-level and second-level lava giants as research materials for his experiments.
On the other hand, he immersed all his attention in learning the newly acquired difficult biochemistry knowledge.
…
…
Deep in his consciousness, in front of the magnificent and ancient avenue book pavilion, Benjamin was suspended in mid-air, his fingertips lightly touching the books in front of him.
As usual, he had just finished reading a book today, which detailed the origin and characteristics of the natural god "Fire Spirit".
The knowledge about the evolution and innate characteristics of elemental life was like lightning, interweaving in the depths of his highly active soul.
Soon, Benjamin withdrew from the depths of consciousness.
"Sure enough, carrying out a 'beneficial' 'positive transformation' on a lava giant, a creature with a relatively complex life form, is far too difficult to achieve with just my current knowledge as a second-level wizard." Benjamin opened his eyes and pondered, "But if I can combine it with the exquisite knowledge of life evolution in the world of immortal cultivation, then it might be possible."
The Dao Book Pavilion allowed him to master the essence of various powerful elemental creatures, while the knowledge of the Noren Workshop provided a specific path to transform life.
The combination of the two opened up a new world for Benjamin.
After completing today's learning tasks, Benjamin quickly came to the core area of the laboratory based on the inspiration he got from the vast knowledge systems of the two worlds.
There, on an operating table made of rune chains and energy beams, a newly cultivated first-level lava giant had been disemboweled and was firmly bound there.
The crimson rock on its surface was temporarily blocked from moving under the continuous action of the fixed energy beam, revealing the core of pulsating hot magma inside.
Benjamin first conducted a careful examination of the lava giant in front of him, focusing on the lava giant's complex and efficient "digestive system" that was different from other elemental creatures.
The lava giant's digestive system is very special.
It can not only absorb the elemental energy in the lava, but can even directly digest the essence of flesh and blood of creatures with flesh and blood.
The lava giants can use this to speed up their own maturity, and even promote breakthroughs in bottleneck periods to increase their own promotion speed!
This is extremely rare among pure elemental creatures.
After in-depth and careful research, Jemin discovered that the lava giant's unique digestive system has excellent energy absorption and conversion efficiency and adaptability.
He thought that this might be a breakthrough to improve the entire lava giant race and enhance its potential and combat effectiveness!
At present, the progress of this research is very encouraging, even exceeding his expectations!
Based on the current efficiency, Benjamin estimates that it won’t be long before we can achieve some phased results!
