Wonderland Manor is located in the heart of New York City, yet it is quiet and hidden among the ancient trees and green forests.
This is a manor built in the 19th century with a history of nearly two hundred years. However, after several renovations by the Lorillard family, it does not look old, but is closely integrated with modern times.
Throughout the entire manor, there are a large number of ancient green trees that are over a hundred years old.
The entire manor is more like a horizontal super-large villa, with 18 bedrooms, 27 bathrooms, an indoor gym, an outdoor dream swimming pool, a basketball court, a basement, etc.
After obtaining the deed to the manor.
Roy had almost no hesitation and decided to turn the manor into his own nest.
There is no other reason. Besides being comfortable to live in, the surrounding environment is perfect for creating a magical botanical garden.
In modern society, there is a demon-free environment almost everywhere.
Except for some very few deep mountains and old forests, as well as the extraordinary black market, it is extremely difficult to find some magical materials such as magic plants, magic beasts, and magic cores.
For example, Veronica was once a famous potion master under the command of the Supreme Merlin.
But in the two years after breaking free from the seal, he almost had no food to eat.
But if we can build a magical botanical garden, relying on the various plant specimens conveniently available around the New York Botanical Garden, once we transplant and cultivate them, we can cultivate a batch of magical plants in a short period of time.
At that time, Veronica's knowledge of potions will come in handy.
As a result, Roy's knowledge of runes and magic related to potions can also be rapidly expanded.
At the same time, potion making plays a huge role in Roy's preparation for a rainy day, building his own power, cultivating his subordinates, training apprentices, and building magician civilization.
The sooner this thing is created, the easier it will be to create a snowball effect.
And there is an extremely practical spell like the Oblivion Spell.
Even if Roy stayed in Wonderland Manor at this critical moment, he didn't have to worry about being noticed.
What's more, there are a lot of jewelry, gold, etc. donated free of charge by kind-hearted people, which are also ready-made materials.
Spend a lot of cash.
In less than a week, the original basement of Wonderland Manor had been transformed into a simple and empty magic laboratory.
In the laboratory, with the help of modern scientific tools, large amounts of metals are melted to form alloys.
At the same time, Veronica used a large amount of blue magic power to create a blue potion and tempered it into the alloy.
This is the simplest way to create alienated magical metal.
Many famous magical metals such as refined gold, mithril, orichalcum, and tin iron all have formulas that can be copied.
Definitely, a crude copy like Roy can only achieve less than 30% of the magic effect.
The parallel imported products are a bit watered down, but they can still be used.
In the initial stage, it's acceptable.
Wait until a large number of counterfeit magic metals are produced.
It is based on fake tinplate, blended with mountain copper, and then the magic pattern is outlined with mithril, and then sprinkled with fine gold powder to fill the gap.
Finally, it was made into a magic column about 3.14 meters high and 15 centimeters in diameter.
These magic gathering pillars even need to be inlaid with a large number of natural gems and supplemented with runes in order to fully mobilize the surrounding inert magic power, elements, etc., and turn them into active magic power that the magician can absorb.
A total of 44 magic gathering pillars almost exhausted all of Roy's savings.
However, this is enough to completely cover the entire manor, forming a huge improved version of Merlin's magic ring.
When the last magic pillar was driven into the ground.
Roy mobilized his meager magic power and even drank a few bottles of blue potion before he ignited the magic circle cycle.
Following this, an invisible energy wave rapidly expanded.
Every time this magic wave travels a certain distance, it lights up a magic pillar buried deep underground.
When all the magic gathering pillars were activated, 44 brilliant orange light beams flashed in the void.
The magic circle was activated, and the inert elements began to become active.
Standing on the node of the magic circle.
Roy felt the gathering of magic power almost immediately.
This feeling is like a fish that has been dehydrated for a long time being moisturized by the cool and soft water vapor, and even a few water droplets fall on the body, which makes people feel a sense of pleasure from the bottom of their soul.
Sensing the gathering of barren magic.
After a brief hesitation, Roy quickly took out 44 low-level soul crystals.
After inlaying these soul crystals on the top of the magic gathering pillar.
Almost instantly, the magic gathering, expulsion, isolation and other properties of the entire Merlin magic circle began to increase exponentially. In just a short moment, the efficiency of the entire magic circle increased by 44 times.
The originally thin 'elemental water vapor' began to condense into gurgling streams, circulating continuously along the magic circle.
This level of magic gathering effect is already quite impressive.
As long as you wait for a few days, the magic environment of the entire manor can be directly upgraded from a no-magic environment to a low-magic environment, or even a medium-rich-magic environment.
Although the area is limited to the interior of the manor, it is currently used by Roy and Veronica.
Just when Roy was feeling happy and emotional.
Veronica, who was originally looking out from the balcony on the second floor of the manor, suddenly let out a cry of joy, and took out a magic carpet from somewhere, and flew directly into the air and came to Roy.
"Goddess of Magic!"
"My dear, what on earth have you done?"
"This magical environment is even richer than Britain 1,300 years ago."
"Look, that old oak tree over there is already becoming alienated!"
"This kind of magic-rich environment is only slightly weaker than Mr. Merlin's magician tower."
"Honey, we'll be able to get rid of the blue potion soon. My god, you have no idea how much I hate the taste of that these days."
"By the way, I still have some magical plant seeds left by Teacher Merlin..."
"Honey, I love you so much!"
Veronica was wearing a white dress and looked like a very vulgar fairy. She threw herself into Roy's arms, gave him a deep kiss, and then ran towards the oak forest.
Roy was quite satisfied with Veronica's understanding.
Obviously, Veronica also knew about the soul crystal, which was Roy's secret. She was just amazed and didn't delve into it.
The Soul Crystal can basically be considered a low-end version of the Philosopher's Stone.
The Philosopher's Stone is Roy's greatest foundation and secret.
Even after becoming an official magician, Roy did not fully master the Philosopher's Stone, let alone decipher all the knowledge and effects it carried.
Unless Roy fully masters the Philosopher's Stone.
At that time, Roy might limit himself and pass on some knowledge about soul crystals.
