Chapter 52 The Reason
In this stormy sea, the other wizards may well have been aware of the changes at the Beacon of Prosperity.
However, the Asuka School is vicious, treacherous, and ruthless. If someone discovers the changes at the Beacon of Prosperity before the Asuka School does, they will inevitably be accused by the Asuka School of being involved in the changes—the Asuka School has always been known for killing the innocent rather than letting the guilty go free.
Therefore, in order to avoid trouble, even if some wizards noticed the changes in the Prosperity Beacon, they would all keep their mouths shut and completely forget what they saw, heard, and perceived!
That's why the old man of the Beacon of Prosperity, who was the most "open" among all the wizards to show his presence, should have been the easiest to notice and the hardest to cover up when he died—yet all of this was covered up.
The reason is here.
To avoid trouble, all the wizards avoided the Beacon of Prosperity like the plague, and in its presence, they became deaf and blind.
"The Flying Bird School's style has always been to kill the innocent and not let the guilty go free." Loen's gaze fell on the Crimson Wizard again, staring at her.
"With this, Crimson Wizard, you still dare to live next to the Beacon of Prosperity?"
"Aren't you afraid that if something happens to the Beacon of Prosperity, it will affect you?"
"It's just that the White Shark Islands and the Prosperity Lighthouse are adjacent; my place isn't even on the White Shark Islands." The Crimson Wizard shook his head and then talked about his shark farm.
"Moreover, I also need to nurture Andy—I finally found a place that still has remnants of ancient monster radiation fields that can touch Andy's bloodline as a breeding ground to nurture sharks and Andy."
"Without this farm, I might still be just a first-class wizard apprentice even in twenty or thirty years!"
If we hadn't found that special breeding farm, that would have been fine.
But now that she had found that special breeding farm, she was determined not to give up!
Even if it means living next to a beacon of prosperity, even if it means being implicated by that beacon.
"Moreover, the Beacon of Prosperity is the eye of the Asuka School; who would dare cause trouble there?"
"In the wizarding world, accidents happen all the time," Loen advised again.
Others may not know the situation of the Beacon of Prosperity, but surely Loon himself knows?
The Asuka School may not yet have realized the changes in the Beacon of Prosperity.
The death of that old man who brought prosperity to the beacon ultimately broke the chain of interests of someone within the Asuka School.
The person with a vested interest in the Asuka School will eventually come to the Beacon of Prosperity to investigate.
He'll find out about the old man's death sooner or later.
How will he react then?
How will the Asuka School react?
"This is not a place to stay for long." Lo Ang's heart stirred slightly—if they didn't leave, they would definitely be implicated in the changes at the Beacon of Prosperity!
"Crimson Wizard, have you ever thought about building your wizard tower in a different location?" Loen asked with a somber expression.
"Let's go somewhere else?" The Crimson Wizard was taken aback.
This was a question she had never considered.
The same spell can have different effects when used by different people.
Just like underwater breathing, its effect is simply to allow people to breathe underwater, but in reality, it has a hidden effect: it allows people to ignore the water pressure in the sea to a certain extent.
Loon also learned this spell, but after using the underwater breathing spell, the limit Loon could dive into the seawater on his shark was about 250 meters. Beyond this limit, breathing became difficult—that was the limit at which Loon could no longer withstand the water pressure.
However, after the Scarlet Wizard used her underwater breathing spell, she could still breathe freely at depths of four or five hundred meters, or even deeper.
This is because she has the blood of a siren, is naturally close to the ocean, and is naturally more adaptable to water pressure.
The Scarlet Wizard herself may not be aware of the water pressure—but she is well aware of her advantage in the sea.
This vast ocean is her home turf.
Not only does it allow her to move freely in the sea and avoid many dangers, but the ability to go deep into the seabed also allows her to find a great deal of wizarding resources and materials in the seawater.
Because of this, the Scarlet Wizard's wealth grew much faster than that of other wizards, and she could always find resources that other wizards couldn't find—before meeting Loon, all the knowledge she had acquired was in exchange for the wealth she obtained from the sea.
And her Warcraft companion, Andy.
If she hadn't been able to venture deep into the ocean, she wouldn't have been able to find Andy, thus laying the foundation for the Warcraft Wizard.
In this barren plane, the existence of magical beasts and raging wild beasts is far rarer than that of wizards!
And her hideout is located more than 100 meters underwater, making it extremely safe.
Aside from the inconvenience of travel, her base had almost no other drawbacks.
That's why the Scarlet Wizard never considered leaving—finding such a safe haven elsewhere wouldn't be easy.
"Crimson Wizard, I'll be frank," Loon shook his head.
"The further one progresses on the path of a wizard, the more resources are needed to support them."
"If you want to acquire resources, you either have to become a dark wizard like the wizard Lescent and plunder everywhere."
"Either, you can steadily plan your own business."
"When we were still first-class wizard apprentices, the resources we raised through a merchant guild were barely enough."
"But starting from the second-level apprenticeship, the resources a wizard needs will increase more and more."
"Practicing spells requires corresponding spell-casting materials."
"The corresponding experiments require the corresponding experimental materials and equipment."
"And most importantly, communication with other wizards."
"No matter what, a person's thinking is limited." At this point, both of them fell silent, but they both thought of the parchment scroll they had brought back from Wizard Lescent.
Although the scrolls contained little information about magic, the various bizarre and wonderful experimental ideas were an eye-opener for both of them.
The bloodline transplant experiment that the Scarlet Wizard is currently preparing is also based on the ideas on that parchment scroll.
That's why the Scarlet Wizards' stronghold had to be moved—they needed a more suitable place to communicate with other wizards.
Even if Loon has a storage bag and can solve the problem of moving experimental equipment, given their current location, what about communication with other wizards?
We can't exactly invite other wizards to this underwater base, can we?
Underwater breathing is not a spell that every wizard knows; otherwise, Wizard Lessont wouldn't have been devoured by a group of sharks.
Moreover, this secluded stronghold meant safety to them, but it also meant danger to other wizards—even if other wizards had learned the spell of underwater breathing, they might not dare to step into this stronghold.
Thinking about this, both Loen himself and the Crimson Wizard couldn't help but feel a strange sensation.
