Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems-Chapter 224: Blood Raven Wasteland

On the western side of Blood Raven Wasteland, in the center of a city, a massive flower instantly transformed from a magic seed into a colossal entity, looming over the city's sky.
This red magic flower had giant mouths growing from every detail of its petals, devouring everything around it. Even its roots resembled wooden dragons, constantly expanding outward, changing the terrain and absorbing the local ley line energy.
The Whale Demon Flower's resource absorption was reckless and endless. At the same time, magically enhanced seeds were scattered across the land, beginning to absorb resources as well, only taking without giving, like gluttons.
Large amounts of magical resources stacked together inherently meant danger. It could easily create a super bomb capable of changing the geological landscape.
The black wizard apprentices in this city were fighting the magic flower's derivatives, magical plant servants, and trying to approach this advanced magical plant to stop its continued spread.
Meanwhile, the vampires of Blood Curse Court sounded the alarm system in the city's central district.
Powerful curse magic energy shot up from the ground toward the sky, releasing a curse that formed a vampire-faced curse scar in the heavens.
Numerous black wizard apprentices were converging from all directions, racing to remove this magical plant before the Ecological Destruction Curse was fully completed, to reduce the degree of drastic change it would cause to Blood Curse Court's heartland magical ecology.
The First Circle wizard student of Lady Morgana who planned this activity stood on a nearby hilltop, coldly watching this scene.
"Well, this should buy Sophia and the others considerable time."
"First Circle level wizards, as long as they infiltrate, definitely cannot escape detection by the Wall of the Faithless, otherwise Blood Curse Court might as well stop playing."
"But as long as attacks are created in other directions, we can make them misunderstand our strategy. Make them think this direction is our main attack direction."
"However, being able to use this long-planned spell to destroy a magical creature Curse Ritual Research Institute in this city is also quite good." This First Circle wizard thought, "That should be a first-level research project of Blood Curse Court."
Witch Sophia contacted him through the Nibelung Astrology System, saying in his ear, "Senior Massimo Vasquez, thank you."
"Without you, it would have been very difficult for us to enter Blood Curse Court's heartland, Blood Raven Wasteland, this time."
Wizard Massimo Vasquez smiled and said, "It's nothing, who told you that you're our junior sister."
"Although I can't understand why you're so anxious that you can't even wait and must leave Lilith's Cottage immediately. But we senior brothers will definitely help you."
"Sophia, remember to write to us when you go to Star Domain Sea."
Lady Morgana's cold voice appeared in their ears, "Massimo, retreat immediately."
"There are already 3 First Circle wizards approaching you. If you two chat a bit more, you won't be able to return."
"But don't worry too much. I have two other formal wizard students who have set up one-time advanced magical plants in two other directions. This operation isn't just to support Sophia, but also to take the opportunity to destroy three of their second-level or higher projects."
Massimo Vasquez became serious and immediately summoned a flying magical plant, using flight magic to quickly escape from this location.
Less than five minutes after he escaped, a blood curse magic descended from the sky. The bloody energy hit empty air, striking where he had left, corroding the soil.
Angry black wizards rushed over, "Damn it, he's already gone."
"He didn't necessarily escape. There are s of attacks in other areas too. These damn white wizards, how long did they plan this operation?"
"How did our Wall of the Faithless have no reaction at all, being led around by the nose everywhere? That's our Wall of the Faithless that cost us 500,000 magic stones. Those fraudsters from Bone Court, did they sell us performance-castrated versions of the defense system?"
"First think about how to deal with this Whale Demon Flower. Once this magic flower enters a fully mature state, even formal wizards risk death approaching it. We absolutely cannot let it continue absorbing this land's magical resources."
"But if we rashly destroy it, there will be a huge explosion. Not to mention the special laboratory here, this city, the magical tides here, everything will be finished."
"In the end, you should have listened to me. We should have invested more resources in necromantic ecology earlier and recruited a few First Circle black wizards who research deeply in this field. We wouldn't be so passive in ecological construction, always being beaten passively."
"Chalas, what you're saying sounds good, but the problem is, where do we get so much money to hire such talent? Where do we have research conditions to invite such talent? Besides those who research curse magic, who would consider Blood Curse Court?"
...
Half a day later, the mortal vessel had docked at shore. Locke and the others quickly brought their goods and hired mortal workers to land on Blood Raven Wasteland.
Locke heard Lady Morgana say in their ears, "I've already created the most favorable conditions for your infiltration."
"The rest is up to you."
"Sophia, according to the intelligence we obtained earlier, landing at this port, you're only 30 kilometers from the target."
"Even at normal mortal movement speed, you only need 3 days to arrive."
Witch Sophia responded through the Nibelung sub-circle in her mind, "I understand. Thank you, Teacher."
After landing, the group began disguising themselves as a normal merchant caravan, handling procedures at the port, finding contacts, and sneakily leaving the port, just like other mortal smugglers.
On muddy paths, in the carriage convoy, Locke sat inside a carriage, looked up at the sky, and immediately frowned with displeasure.
The air of Blood Raven Wasteland was dry and cold, with curse energy permeating it, naturally harmful to human bodily health.
Humans living here would, under normal circumstances, lose at least 10 years of natural lifespan.
Additionally, this plateau's sky had heavy cloud layers, layer upon layer, ensuring this place never saw sunlight.
Even during the day, the sky here was a cyan color.
Obviously, this plateau had undergone magical transformation by Blood Curse Court over thousands of years, long since experiencing environmental mutation.
Curse magic here seemed to naturally strengthen by several degrees.
White magic was naturally suppressed.
