The Transcendent City State of St. Land was itself an extraordinarilypowerful magical creature.
St. Land inherently possessed the capability to reproduce.
Through humans’ integration of its Transcendent Characteristics, the Magic Sequence Tree of St. Land had finally crystallized.
Just like the Transcendent Sequence Tree.
The Magic Sequence Tree would also produce Crystals.
And these Crystals were “Magic Seeds”.
In both the Western Continent and the East Continent, places that could produce Magic Seeds were few and far between.
Moreover, St. Land not only produced powerful Magic Seeds, but also did so with remarkable stability.
The Magic Seeds of St. Land, just like the Transcendent equipment of St. Land’s Dwarf Craftsmen, were also sold far and wide overseas.
It is said that the price of Magic Seeds is not cheap out there in the world.
“Whoosh…”
The curtain of rain persisted.
The rain curtain of the “Grey Night period” still felt familiar.
The rain pelted against Tuck’s shield, cold and pouring into his clothes.
But now with the Heart of Flames, Tuck not only possessed an exceedingly strong Flame Immunity.
His resistance to the cold was also astonishing.
If Tuck wished, he himself could be a walking, furiously hot source of heat.
On the square being washed by the rain curtain.
From atop this more than 300-meter-high Steampunk Magic Tower pulsing with Origin Energy, Tuck slowly withdrew his gaze.
Like Tuck, there were a dozen or so Wizards and other Transcendent Spellcasters waiting in the rain.
These people, just like Tuck, had paid money to come and select Magic Seeds.
Before long, a Tower Apprentice clad in blue robes opened the barrier gate.
“Come in, everybody!” the apprentice in blue robes shouted to those waiting outside.
The waiting crowd filed in one by one.
“Just go straight ahead, submit your vouchers, and then you can go to the branch window of the Magic Tree to select a Magic Seed that satisfies you.”
“After that, at the exit position, pick up three bottles of cultivating solution if you want a higher survival rate for the Magic Tree.”
“Rich soil from the fertile layer domain, higher-grade cultivation fluids, these too are for sale here,” the apprentice said, not forgetting to pitch their products as people entered.
Tuck, entering along with the others, looked around with interest at the Tower’s construction here.
[Tower Frame][Life Rock][Origin Energy Nexus][Magic Attribute][Energy Barrier]
A multitude of rather extravagant Transcendent Characteristics were embedded within these towers.
Once these Transcendent Characteristics were balanced by the Steampunk Magic Towers.
Powerful Steam Towers would then be formed.
Inherently a storage of Origin Energy, with strong defense capabilities, the controllers could even use the Tower’s power to fend off powerful enemies.
Towers were essentially destined to become huge war bastions.
This was also why the Dark Sun Church did not dare to easily provoke St. Land.
This was also why many Transcendents aimed to establish their own Towers.
And the Magic Cottage was a miniaturized version of a “movable Tower”.
Although it lacked the appearance of a Tower.
Yet once a Magic Cottage was formed, its fundamental features were quite similar.
After passing through a retro granite corridor.
The Magic Sequence Tree was in sight.
Within the great granite grotto on the right.
Black basaltic vines, following the internal Nexus deep inside, spawned solid rock vines that clung to the massive hollow granite’s walls.
The life flow within these rocky vines was rich with Magic Attributes.
An unimaginable rocky life form.
This was the Lava Hearth Tree Stump; this was St. Land.
The other Spellcasters, like Tuck, also examined this strange scene where the Magic Tree climbed all over the cave with curious eyes.
Dozens of fist-sized Magic Seeds, varying in color and perfectly sealed, were hanging on the branches of the vines.
The number was roughly a hundred or so.
The Transcendents could employ their means to pluck the one they desired.
Tuck’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Precision Vision revealed the Nexus of the world, blossoming rapidly.
In this look, Tuck immediately noticed the differences between these varied Magic Seeds.
Some appeared dead on the outside, but their inner vitality was immensely abundant.
Others were consistent inside and out, looking decent, but their overall strength was mediocre, with possibly low cultivation survival rates.
Of course, there were also those that were devoid of life both inside and out, genuine stillbirths.
Some had vibrant life on the outside, but nearly nonexistent vitality within, belonging to the kind that happily seeds and thoroughly dies.
Tuck’s glance immediately fixed on a Magic Seed on the upper part of the rock wall, almost embedded within the wall, barely discernible as a Magic Seed.
Tuck’s Rune Hand pressed directly on it, applying a gentle force.
This Magic Seed was steadily retrieved by Tuck.
This Magic Seed, on the surface, looked ordinary, even somewhat irregular in shape.
But its inner vitality, not only abundant and rich, was even continuously drawing from the Life Pulse.
It was one of the excellent Magic Seeds that still had room for growth.
Just at that moment, a voice arose beside Tuck.
“The one you’re picking isn’t good; its survival rate is not high.”
“Hm?”
Tuck frowned slightly and turned to look.
He saw a young Arcane Wizard, around his early twenties, with delicate and handsome features, sizing him up.
“I can help you choose a Magic Seed with a very high survival rate.”
“But this is a paid service, it only costs 20 pieces of Magic Gold.”
“A paid service?” Tuck’s eyebrow arched.
The services in this Steampunk Magic Tower are really quite user-friendly, aren’t they!
“Hmm! Thank you, but no need, the one I have is quite good,” Tuck considered and then politely but firmly declined.
The young Arcane Wizard, not one to linger, immediately looked for his next client.
Soon, a relatively young female Wizard purchased the paid service.
And that fine-featured Arcane Wizard indeed chose a Magic Seed that even Tuck thought was not bad.
One after another, the Arcane Wizard offered his paid services to the Transcendents coming in.
What surprised Tuck was,
This Arcane Wizard actually had quite impressive abilities.
The Magic Seeds he selected were almost always robustly alive.
“Not bad at all.”
Tuck couldn’t help but take a few more glances.
However, what Tuck was really looking at was not the other’s ability to recognize the Magic Seeds.
It was!
This guy was actually conducting such “business” within the High Tower.
If it were anyone else daring to do this, they’d either be thrown out or carried out.
Yet the staff here, or rather, the Tower Apprentices, turned a blind eye to the young wizard’s actions.
Clearly.
The behavior of this young wizard was tacitly approved.
For someone like this who has connections within Steam Tower and is familiar with everything inside, and even has quite a network—”Network Vendor,”—this was exactly what Tuck desperately needed right now.
Soon, many spellcasters had chosen the Magic Seeds they needed and happily went to receive the nurturing solution.
Among them, a good half of the Transcendents purchased the paid service from that young Arcane Wizard.
“Can you tell me how you identify the survival rates of those Magic Seeds?”
As the Arcane Wizard seemed to be counting how much Magic Gold he had earned this time,
Tuck approached and asked.
Sensing Tuck’s approach, the young Arcane Wizard turned around and said in a soothing tone.
“If you’re willing to purchase the paid service, I can answer this question for free.”
Tuck straightforwardly pulled out 20 pieces of Magic Gold.
A few days ago, he had completed a transaction with Barkin.
After deducting the cost of materials, the amount of Magic Gold Tuck received was 54,000.
And this was only a portion of Tuck’s wealth.
In Tuck’s possession, the three Transcendent Storage Bracelets together amounted to nearly three hundred thousand Magic Gold, Tuck’s wealth was entirely comparable to the bounty on his own head in the black market.
Tuck remembered his bounty was previously 320,000 Magic Gold.
Recently, while in a tavern, Tuck overheard someone mention that the Puppet Master’s death in Black River Valley seemed linked to Blasphemer Tuck.
Then, the price on his head increased.
Now, Tuck’s head was worth 350,000 Magic Gold.
Such a high bounty even tempted Tuck himself.
Having received the money, the young Arcane Wizard began to explain.
“I have been maintaining the Magic Seeds’ vine ecology for years, and after much contact, through their shape, outline, scent, color, and other factors, I can discern the survival rates of these life seeds.”
“I see,” Tuck somewhat understood, his realization dawning.
This fellow was indeed an insider of the Steampunk Magic Tower, and by the looks of it, he wasn’t just any apprentice but a senior student with stature.
“The one you picked just now has a chance of being a good Magic Seed.”
“But for safety’s sake, that blue Magic Seed is better.”
“If you swap now, there’s still time.”
Tuck looked at the blue crystal-like Magic Seed not far away.
It certainly was a decent Magic Seed, but in comparison to the one Tuck held, it was clearly lacking a lot.
“Thank you, but I still feel the one I picked just now is more suitable for me.”
“Also…”
In thought, Tuck slowly spoke.
“I’d like to become a Self-reading student within the High Tower, do you have connections for that?”
The young Arcane Wizard scrutinized Tuck for a moment before replying, “For 100 Magic Gold, I can arrange all the procedures for you to become a Self-reading student inside this Steampunk Magic Tower.”
“Of course, the Self-reading fee of 240 Magic Gold per term, you need to pay yourself.”
“This term just started not long ago, so you won’t lose much on the Self-reading fee.”
The other’s words brought a smile to Tuck’s face.
This “Network Vendor” before him certainly had plenty of connections.
He was just the type of person Tuck liked.
