“Let’s go in. It’s all thanks to Leviathan. Otherwise, we would have arrived two days later. We would have missed out on a lot then.” Marlene smiled.
“That’s right, I really envy Junior Brother. To have such a first-circle sea beast as a mount is something that many official wizards dream of.” Winnie sighed too, her eyes revealing envy.
Levi smiled and said nothing.
Without Leviathan’s hard work, Levi would not be where he was today. After he subdued the sea dragon crocodile, he would let it retire early. At most, he would grind its horns to promote its healthy growth.
At the entrance of the array, a second-circle wizard of the Star Tower stood there, guarding the place while studying the book in his hand.
“Report your identity and organization. I’ll record your spiritual imprint into the array so that you can enter and exit freely. In addition, each person has to pay an entry fee of 100 Aether Stones. After that, you can enter and exit freely with your membership card or registered pharmacist certificate until the end of the Haitian Wizard Festival.”
Marlene nodded and handed 300 Aether Stones to the second-circle wizard.
Levi did not say anything. Since the leader had taken the initiative to treat them, it would be as if he wasn’t giving the other party any face if he were to rush to pay the bill at this time. Either way, he and Ms. Marlene were on the same side. It was only a given that Ms. Marlene wouldn’t mind forking up this little bit of Aether Stones.
After entering, Winnie couldn’t help but sigh. “There are at least a thousand wizards participating in this event and each has to pay a hundred Aether
Stones. Just the entrance fee alone will amount to a hundred thousand Aether Stones… My goodness.”
One should know that the entrance fee was only the most basic. The organizer of the event, the Star Tower, would also collect a certain commission or booth fee for every transaction that took place at the Haitian Wizard Festival.
In these few days, the Star Tower would then make a lot of money. At the very least, they would earn hundreds of thousands or even millions of Aether Stones. For such a huge official organization, this was normal.
This was even because the Outer Circle Area only had a group of poor wizards who couldn’t spend much.
In the Inner Circle Area’s Haitian Wizard Festival, the Star Tower could earn hundreds of millions of Aether Stones every time it was held. This was a huge amount of wealth that most wizard organizations and wizards could not imagine.
As soon as they entered the venue, the noisy atmosphere permeated the air. The sounds of hawking, discussion, laughter, and the sound of spells clashing in the center of the arena rose and fell.
“Free time next. Just gather at the entrance after the festival ends. Don’t get into any conflicts with others. There might be third -circle experts in such a grand event. With the realm of third-circle experts, if they restrain their spiritual force fluctuations, you might even think that they’re mortals.
Therefore, you have to treat everyone here with caution,” Marlene reminded them. It was not her first time attending the Haitian Wizard Festival.
“Yes, Ms. Marlene,” Levi said.
“Alright, go, Levi. I’m not that worried about you given your character,” Marlene said with a smile.
Levi was kind, humble, approachable, and obedient. Marlene liked such people. It was Winnie who was careless and made her a little worried.
Levi went straight to the point. The main reason he came to the Haitian Wizard Festival was for potion formulas. He did not care about anything else.
Spell battles and encounters were of no concern to him. They were nothing before the most important thing like gaining experience points.
As long as he could get a potion formula that could greatly increase his meditation speed, it would be worth it. He would not join in the fun of the festival either, lest he suffer if anything happened.
Many wizards had already set up stalls at the Haitian Wizard Festival. A booth fee would be charged for setting up stalls here.
Levi walked around the stalls and shook his head helplessly. His thinking had been too wishful. How could these people have the formulas for meditation potions? They didn’t even have formulas for breathing techniques. After walking around, although there were some materials and Wizard Tools that were useful to Levi, they were too expensive and not worth buying. In the end, Levi arrived at an auction venue. This was his last hope.
“Haitian Auction, let’s go in and take a look.”
Under normal circumstances, important items would be sold at the auction.
After showing his membership card, Levi entered the auction venue. The auction was already in progress, though the items sold were things he was not interested in.
When the auction was nearing its end, Levi finally found something that he was interested in.
“Next up for auction are ten bottles of Electric Daisy Potion. This is a top-grade first-circle potion refined by the second-circle registered pharmacist of Grimm Tower, Grimm Walter. It has passed the official certification test and is guaranteed to be authentic. The effect of the potion is to increase the meditation speed of first-circle wizards by 40%, and second-circle wizards by 20%. It is ineffective for third-circle wizards and above, and the effect will last for two weeks. The starting price is 4,000 Aether Stones. However, if you have a breakthrough potion that can help wizards break through to the first circle, you can contact our staff directly. This pharmacist will give priority to the breakthrough potion.”
After the beautiful staff finished speaking, the wizards present began to bid fiercely. It was obvious that there were some rich wizards. After all, these ten bottles of potions were enough for the next half a year..
