Wizard: I Can Refine Everything-Chapter 280 - 1 Ring 3 Wizard Jolod

Chapter 280 -1 Ring 3 Wizard Jolod

The Wizard World remained the same as before, and more than sixty years isn’t considered particularly long for wizards.

After returning to the Wizard World, Richard immediately renewed the lease on his Wizard Tower.

The Tower of Truth had specific policies for wizards participating in expeditions to other planes. If a wizard had to leave the Tower of Truth for an extended period due to such expeditions, they could choose to have their lease on the residential floors refunded and the Wizard Tower mothballed.

If a wizard died in battle, the Wizard Tower would be reclaimed by the Tower of Truth, and the items within would be distributed according to the wizard’s will. If they did not die, the wizard only needed to renew the lease to continue using the Wizard Tower.

After renewing the lease, Richard returned to his Wizard Tower.

Looking at the two new graves in the backyard of the Wizard Tower, Richard sighed.

“Ah, non-human servants are great, it’s just that their lifespans are too short.”

Richard also experienced the helplessness of the longevity species. The war in the Red Sun World felt to him like it had only been a few years, but for short-lived species, it was a major part of their lives.

“I need to change servants in the future. Even without naming them, just looking at these graves feels quite saddening.”

Due to the death of the non-human servants, Richard’s Wizard Tower had been unattended for decades; weeds overran the front and back yards, and dust covered the rooms.

Richard had no choice but to clean up himself.

Just as he was clearing the weeds in the front yard, a surprised voice suddenly came from behind him.

“Richard, you’re back!”

Turning around, Richard saw Ali, clad in flames, looking at him excitedly.

She clearly knew about his role as a technical advisor in the Plane War, and before he had left, they had been intimately together for a long time.

Ali was even scared that Richard might not return and wanted to have a child, but Richard had firmly refused.

He was still young, only a little over three hundred years old; taking on such ties would just be asking for trouble.

“Yes, just got back,” Richard pointed to the cut grass on the ground, “I’m tidying up the house.”

“Why are you cleaning up by yourself… Oh right, your two little ones died. Stop for a moment, I’ll call mine over to clean up.”

Richard waved his hand, “It’s fine, I haven’t cleaned by myself since I became a wizard, doing it occasionally is quite novel.”

“Stop it,” Ali walked up to Richard. With a casual wave, she turned the grass on the ground to ashes, “You just got back, you probably don’t know.

Master Jolod has successfully advanced to the Three Rings, and the Academy is currently organizing a banquet for him.”

Richard was delighted upon hearing this, “The instructor advanced to the Three Rings? That’s fortuitous!”

It had been over a hundred years since Jolod’s advancement to the Three Rings, and by now, it was indeed time for him to emerge.

Richard set aside his work, “At the academy, right? I’m heading back now.”

With that, Richard transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky, but he soon returned.

“Aren’t you going back, Ali?” Richard asked, puzzled.

Ali rolled her eyes at him, teasing, “Idiot, I’m not not going back, I’ve already come back. These kinds of banquets can go on for months.”

Richard was slightly stunned, then quickly understood.

The Wizard World was vast, and wizards often immersed themselves in research without concerning themselves with worldly affairs. If the banquet were set for just one day, many wizards might not be able to attend.

“Let’s go back since I’m here. It’s been so long, I’m not even familiar with the way back.”

Saying this, Richard grasped Ali’s slender waist and once again transformed into a streak of light, flying off.

…

Today, the Black Tower Wizard Academy was as calm as ever.

However, in the past two months, the Academy had suddenly issued a decree to all apprentices, prohibiting any student from flying higher than three meters using their Flying Technique.

At first, the apprentices didn’t understand, but as they watched streaks of light cutting across the sky both day and night, they naturally realized the reason for this decree.

Flying too high could lead to trouble if they encountered a wizard.

Concerning the wizards coming to the Academy, the apprentices had various opinions, but soon, an official apprentice shared the truth with them.

The Black Tower Wizard Academy was about to gain another Deputy Dean.

Inside the Central Black Tower on the two hundred and seventy-second floor, Jolod was moving among the guests with a smile on his face.

He didn’t recognize many of these guests, but mingling was necessary.

Many guests were former students of the academy who had left for various reasons. However, as long as they had not joined another academy, the Academy always welcomed them back.

Apart from former students, a significant portion of the guests were members of wizard families.

These families had collaborations with the Academy, and family members also held teaching positions there. Now that the Academy was about to have another Deputy Dean, they naturally had to show their support.

Moreover, Jolod was an Alchemy Master, and getting acquainted now might make it easier to ask for favors later.

After greeting the guests, Jolod, feeling somewhat exhausted, made his way to the balcony.

Before long, his old friend, Alex, came to the balcony with a drink in hand.

“So tired already? My banquet went on for a full three months back in the day.”

Jolod looked at his old friend with a wry tone,

“Yes, our Deputy Dean Alex was so impressive, able to enjoy a three-month-long banquet.”

Alex retorted with a laugh, “Go away, I wanted to die of boredom back then. I hated banquets the most.

It’s the last day, hang in there!”

Jolod remembered those days and couldn’t help but smile slightly.

“Old friend, we’ve both changed, haven’t we?”

A trace of melancholy flashed across Alex’s eyes before he swiftly changed the subject.

“My friend has returned from the Plane Battlefield,” Ali said. “The Great Wizard Qing Shuang’s expedition to the planes is almost over.”

Jolod was taken aback, “The war is about to end? The timing is quite good.”

Seeing that Jolod had no reaction, Alex reminded him:

“Have you forgotten? Your apprentice went on that expedition with Great Wizard Qing Shuang.”

With Alex’s reminder, Jolod suddenly realized, “Right, right, right, Richard was involved in that war.

That means Richard will be returning soon.”

Alex sighed, “That would be the best outcome. But from what I heard, the war was quite devastating. Although they made a fortune, more than half of the wizards who went there died.

I knew an old guy who died there.”

“Who?” Jolod asked curiously.

“Theodore, an old guy who was about to die of old age.”

Hearing this, Jolod’s expression changed slightly.

He had heard of Theodore; the circle of Three Rings Wizards isn’t very large, and those who lived to be that old were even fewer.

An old wizard of such caliber dying on the battlefield… what about his student…

Suddenly, a commotion broke out in the hall. Jolod and Alex exchanged glances and immediately left the terrace.

Logically, no one should be causing trouble at this kind of event, but just in case they encountered a few hotheads, it would be easier to handle if they were present.

The combat power of a Three Rings Wizard, in a world where the Great Wizards weren’t allowed to intervene, was top-notch.

At the banquet, a black-robed wizard was being surrounded by several white-robed wizards.

Jolod did not see the face of the black-robed wizard, but he recognized the wizards surrounding him.

These were all high-ranking members of the White Wizard Army, by rank, they were counterparts of Alex. By strength, they were also Three Rings Wizards.

If these individuals were in conflict, it really wouldn’t be easy to handle.

Jolod’s heart tightened, not expecting such a scene as the banquet was coming to an end.

He exchanged glances with Alex and quickly walked up to the group of wizards, ready to make use of his authority.

But as soon as he saw the face of the black-robed wizard being surrounded, he froze in place.

The black-robed wizard, seeing Jolod, immediately squeezed out from the group of Three Rings Wizards and loudly said:

“Teacher, I’m back!”

Jolod smiled and patted the black-robed wizard on the shoulder:

“It’s good to have you back, good to have you back.”

The black-robed wizard was none other than Richard, who had hurried back from the Tower of Truth.

Following Richard, a few high-ranking officials of the White Wizard Army exchanged glances, and one of them congratulated Jolod:

“It seems the Master is about to receive double happiness.”

Jolod was surprised. The speaking Three Rings Wizard was the Legion Commander of the Sun Legion. But he did not remember having any interactions with this commander.

Could it be Richard?

Jolod turned his puzzled gaze to Richard, only to see Richard smiling slightly and saying:

“Mr. Chairman, Commander Bafford is planning to order a batch of Magic Support Vehicles from us, not less than a thousand.”

Ordering Magic Support Vehicles?

Jolod lowered his head, tapping his fingers against his forehead. Soul Darkness had a great impact on a wizard’s psyche, and Jolod’s memories were a bit blurry since his recent advancement.

After a moment, Jolod suddenly lifted his head, shocked.

“A thousand Magic Support Vehicles!”

“It’s not just a thousand,” someone interjected.

Jolod turned toward the speaker, another high-ranking official of the White Wizard Army.

“If your association’s production capacity is sufficient, our Ice Wind Army would also like to order a thousand units.”

Another thousand units.

Jolod’s head started to spin; if his memory served correctly, the external selling price of a Magic Support Vehicle was around eight hundred fifty Magic Essence.

The gross profit of the product was about four hundred Magic Essence.

For a thousand units, that meant a gross profit of four hundred thousand Magic Essence.

And judging by the posture of these legion high-levels, it seemed they all intended to place substantial orders.

Jolod felt as if his brain was boiling.

What was happening to this world? He had merely advanced to a Three Rings Wizard, but it felt as if the whole world had changed.

Had Magic Essence devalued?

Alex, standing beside Jolod, noticed his old friend’s brain crash and quickly signaled Richard with his eyes.

Seeing Alex’s look, although somewhat puzzled, Richard still led the legion officers elsewhere to discuss the details of the orders.

Alex led Jolod to the terrace, and it was a while before Jolod finally recovered.

He blurted out to Alex, “Has Magic Essence devalued?”

Hearing this, Alex couldn’t help but punch him.

“Devalued my ass, you old fellow, you’ve struck it rich! Do you realize it?

Looking at the situation, your student’s creations must have shone brilliantly on the battlefield!”
