Chapter 294: Trade

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This was a specially organized forest. Lush trees, lush lawns, and colorful flowers blooming in the middle of the lawns. Upon closer inspection, these flowers and trees all had facial features similar to humans.

When Heath and his boat approached, these flowers and trees all turned their heads to look at the two of them, their expressions full of vigilance.

“This is the personal territory of Wizard Orinoco. Do not approach without permission!”

“This is the personal territory of Wizard Orinoco. Do not approach without permission!”

They opened their mouths and issued a stern warning to Heath and Jackman. The branches of some trees had already extended towards them, as if they were ready to launch an attack at any moment.

“Aiya, I haven’t been here for a long time. I almost forgot, this has to stay on our chest.”

Jackman walked forward and took out two unique badges. One was given to Heath, and the other was placed on his chest. Heath took the badge and put it on his chest as well.

The solemn expressions on the flowers and trees that looked like they were about to have a storm disappeared, and they all changed into smiling faces.

“Welcome to the territory of Wizard Orinoco!”

“Welcome to the territory of Wizard Orinoco!”

Jackman said apologetically, “I’m sorry, my friend. I haven’t been here for a long time. I was a little careless. I don’t think I scared you, right?”

Heath shook his head.

Then he stared at the flowers and trees and asked curiously, “Is this a plant guard?”

Similar to golem puppets, plant guardians were also a kind of magical creation. They were just ordinary plants. Wizards could use magic to force them to have some intelligence so that they could perform simple operations such as guarding the door.

In places that were better than golem puppets, plant guardians could absorb nutrients in the soil and convert them into energy without having to consume Magic Stones like golem guardians.

Jackman nodded. “My teacher is very good at botany.”

While chatting casually, the two of them walked into the depths of the island. After passing through a narrow path, a small valley appeared in front of them. In the middle of the valley stood a small white tower.

It was not big, only a few meters tall. The outer wall was white and covered with thriving nettles. It looked very unique.

In front of the small white tower was a nursery planted with seven Night Flowers. At this time, a hunchbacked little old man was standing in front of the nursery watering with a watering can in his hand.

Heath rarely used the word ‘little old man’ to describe an elderly man, but the old man in front of him was very fitting for this description.

He looked really ‘small’, only about 120 or 130 centimeters. If one did not look at the wrinkles on his face that looked like old tree bark, it would really be easy to misunderstand him as an underage child.

Under the gaze of Heath, the old man seemed to have noticed something and suddenly raised his head to look in his direction.

There was actually still a distance of several hundred meters between them. However, at this moment, Heath clearly felt two sharp rays of light shooting towards him, just like two sharp arrows that were unsheathed.

Heath only felt a piercing pain in his eyes. Subconsciously, he quickly mobilized his magic power and activated his soul companion body. Only then did he feel better.

“Huh?”

The little old man suddenly gave a slight doubt, as if he was puzzled that Heath was blocking his vision.

It was a long description, but the contact between the two was actually in a flash. From an outsider’s point of view, it was the old man turning his head to look at Heath. Jackman, who was beside him, did not even notice the slightest abnormality.

Jackman saw the old man turn his head and quickly waved to him, shouting, “Teacher!”

Then he introduced to Heath, “This is my teacher, Wizard Orinoco. He is an advanced Wizard.”

Heath nodded, “I can see that.”

The two came to the old Wizard. Jackman bowed and said, “Teacher.”

Wizard Orinoco nodded slightly, and then his gaze fell on Heath, who was next to him, with a slight smile on his face. He asked curiously, “Jackman, is this the friend from the West Coast that you mentioned before?”

Jackman nodded and said, “Yes, Teacher. His name is Heath.”

After a pause, he added, “Heath is a very outstanding Wizard. He has extraordinary knowledge and profound strength.”

Orinoco nodded repeatedly. He said to Heath, “When I heard that Jackman was defeated by a Wizard of the same age, I thought it was just a malicious joke. But now it seems that I understand. You have already completed the first stage of soul mutation at such a young age. You have also cultivated soul defense energy. Not bad, not bad.”

He did not mean to overhear, but Jackman was shocked. Although he knew that Heath’s strength was not ordinary, he did not expect that he had already finished the first stage of soul mutation. No wonder he had lost so completely.

Heath was also shocked.

He could clearly see Heath’s strength just by looking at him. After all, Heath was already at the late stage of the beginner stage.

He quickly bowed and said, “It’s an honor to meet you.”

Orinoco said, “Let’s go. Let’s go back to the tower and talk.”

After saying that, he let go of the watering can and handed it to a vine beside him. Then, he waved his right hand forward.

As he moved, a large magic array suddenly appeared under their feet. The spatial runes on the magic array indicated the identity of the magic array.

A strange spatial distortion was felt. The pressure on his body tightened and then loosened. With a whoosh, Heath had already arrived at another place.

This was a reception room. From the view outside the cross-shaped window, they should be inside the tower. Obviously, this place was similar to what Heath had set up for his lighthouse. Spatial magic arrays were set up around the tower.

“Have a seat. What do you want to drink? Cocoa?”

“Thank you.”

Orinoco did not waste any time. After sitting down, he asked straightforwardly, “I heard Jackman say that you need Purple Coral. Is that so?”

Heath nodded. “Yes.”

Orinoco?pondered for a moment and said, “Since you have completed the first stage of soul mutation, and your strength has reached the late stage of a beginner Wizard, if I’m not wrong, you need the Purple Coral to concoct the Sublimation Water to prepare for the advancement to an intermediate-level Wizard. Is that right?”

Heath did not hide anything. “Yes.”

Not long after Heath finished speaking, Orinoco and Jackman locked eyes. Heath noticed that both of their faces were filled with joy.

Did something happen?

While Heath was surprised, Orinoco suddenly said, “Wizard Heath, maybe we can discuss a deal in detail….”
