Heath asked doubtfully, “Trade?”
Orinoco nodded and said, “That’s right. Jackman, you brought him here. Why don’t you explain it to me?”
“Yes, Teacher.”
Jackman explained to Heath, “Heath, do you remember the Deep Sea Feast that I mentioned to you before?”
Heath asked, “The feast that the Heart of the Sea gathered?”
Jackman nodded. “Yes, the Heart of the Sea matures once every 30 years, and then the Wizards of the Golden Islands will hold a Deep Sea Feast. That’s what I told you at that time.”
“Please allow me to apologize to you here, because there are some parts of the Deep Sea Feast that I haven’t fully explained.”
After a pause, he continued, “For example, although the Deep Sea Feast is mainly about the distribution of the Heart of the Sea, it also concerns the distribution of some benefits between the Wizard organizations of our Golden Islands.”
Heath raised his eyebrows.
Jackman explained, “Our Golden Islands believes that ‘outstanding people should get more resources’. This is the case for Apprentices, Wizards, and Wizard organizations.”
“And the Deep Sea Feast is related to the distribution of certain benefits. The higher the rank of the Wizard organizations in the Deep Sea Feast, the more benefits they will get.”
“It is precisely because of this that every time the Deep Sea Feast is held, every Wizard organization will do their best to send the most outstanding Wizards from their respective Wizard organizations to participate in this banquet. There are no exceptions.”
“But...”
At this point, he changed the topic. “There is a rule in the Deep Sea Feast. The strength of the Wizards who participate in the Deep Sea Feast cannot be higher than Rank 2. Only beginner Wizards are allowed to participate.”
Hearing this, Heath seemed to have some clues.
He said in puzzlement, “So...”
Orinoco continued, “Yes, we hope that you can be a Wizard of Deep Sea Kiss and participate in this banquet in our place.”
There was a huge gap between every level of Wizards. A Wizard like Heath, who had already reached the late stage of Rank 1, was already several times stronger than ordinary Wizards. Once he entered... He would definitely have a huge advantage.
Heath was puzzled. “But I’m not a Wizard of Deep Sea Kiss?”
Jackman smiled. “It doesn’t matter. The Golden Islands is an open area for Wizards. No Wizard organization would object to foreign guests. Even in such a grand event, recruiting foreign aid is allowed.”
What Heath was not clear about was that due to the special geographical location of the Golden Islands, the interests were intertwined. In particular, the conflict between the Golden Islands and the Seafolk had been erupting for a long time. They were simply unable to withstand the Seafolk’s rampage.
Because of this, the Wizards of the Golden Islands paid special attention to their relationship with the Wizard World. Other than the Dark Wizards, all outstanding Wizards, regardless of where they came from, could be treated with courtesy here.
The other party recruited and roped in Wizards. At the same time, they were also the force behind the Wizards they roped in, so that they could get help from outside forces when they encountered trouble in the future.
Heath said, “I see...”
He now understood why Jackman had been so enthusiastic toward him along the way. The feeling was that he was waiting here...
Then, Heath could not help but ponder.
He was still very interested in the Heart of the Sea that Jackman had described, especially the refinement of magic power. After advancing to an intermediate Wizard, this was an inevitable step for him. It would be good if he could prepare in advance.
However, he did not know much about this Deep Sea Feast Who knew if there would be any danger...
Seeing Heath’s hesitation, Jackman could not help but say, “My friend, there’s no need to give us an answer now. You can go back and seriously think about it. Regardless of whether you accept it or not, we will always be friends.”
Orinoco said, “If you finally make the decision to represent our Deep Sea Kiss, then I will prepare the Purple Coral you need for you.”
Orinoco’s strength was definitely one of the best in Deep Sea Kiss. However, because he was a foreign Wizard, he could not enter Deep Sea Kiss’ power core and could not obtain more resources and benefits.
If he could perform well in the Deep Sea Feast, then he would take off his hat and enter Deep Sea Kiss’ power core.
After a pause, Orinoco said earnestly, “This is a very good opportunity for both us and you. I hope Wizard Heath will seriously consider...”
...
After thinking for two days, Heath quickly made a decision —
To participate in the competition.
After returning from Orinoco’s place that day, Heath had investigated this Deep Sea Feast in detail. He had looked up relevant information in the library, looked for the Apprentices of the Deep Sea Kiss, and so on.
In short, after some investigation, Heath had finally understood the various matters of this Deep Sea Feast. It was roughly what Jackman had told him, which was to gather a group of Wizards in one place to pick the Heart of the Sea.
There was a certain degree of danger, but it was not fatal. Heath felt that with his strength that was infinitely close to that of an intermediate Wizard, he should be very confident in this matter.
He had enough confidence, and at the same time, he could obtain the Purple Coral. He could also prepare in advance for the future refinement of magic power. There was no reason for him not to participate in this matter of killing three birds with one stone.
“Haha, it’s great that you’ve agreed. My friend, you’ve really made the right decision.”
“When the time comes, we’ll fight together. I believe that we’ll definitely bring glory to Deep Sea Kiss. We might even be able to get into the top three in the competition!”
“If there’s anything you need help with, just let us know. Let us prepare well for this!”
Jackman, who had received Heath’s reply, appeared to be exceptionally happy. Not only did he praise Heath, he even generously asked Heath to name any conditions.
Seeing that, Heath did not stand on ceremony. It just so happened that he had recently been interested in the contents of Deep Sea Kiss’ Wizard-level library, so he simply made this request.
“Wizard Library? This... You are really not polite at all. That is the core knowledge that Deep Sea Kiss Wizards have spent a huge amount of money to accumulate. It is the most precious resource of Deep Sea Kiss.”
“Hmm... It is not completely impossible. Let me help you apply first. However, I cannot guarantee that it will succeed.”
“Even if you do apply, it’ll probably only take a few days. You have to think of the information you need to look up in advance. The books inside can’t be taken out.”
After Jackman’s hard work, he successfully applied for seven days for Heath.
This was a standard lending time. Most Wizard organizations had this kind of time in their closed databases for outsiders.
This rule allowed people to check their knowledge while avoiding the loss of precious knowledge.
After all, seven days was too short, especially in the field of magic. No matter how smart a Wizard was, he could only complete one knowledge point in seven days.
Even if one knowledge point was taken away by an outsider, it was not an unacceptable loss.
However, the Wizards did not know that there were Wizards in this world who were not bound by ordinary rules, and it was precisely this kind of cognitive bias that would always bring about astonishing results....
