The Witcher: Elemental Lords

Karl, covered in dust, stood at the entrance of Erlang Academy, gazing up at the lizard gate with a sigh. Dorlay's talent, he thought, would be welcomed anywhere. He joined the academy immediately as a lecturer, truly remarkable.

He arrived at the foot of the Magic Potion Hall and submitted his visiting card. Amidst the surprised gazes of the crowd, he slowly walked into the hall.

A young apprentice led him, asking as they walked, "Wizard Karl, I heard you came from the Northern Kingdom with Vice-Dean Dorlay?"

Karl, unsure of the student's meaning, nodded. "Yes, we met in Chris County." He paused, turning his head. "Vice-Dean Dorlay? He's the vice-dean now?"

The apprentice smiled faintly. "In the entire Magic Potion Hall, Lecturer Dorlay has the strongest potion-making skills. If he weren't the vice-dean, we probably wouldn't be convinced. Vice-Dean Dorlay deserves the title. Chris County, I haven't heard of that place."

Karl sighed, unsure whether he was sighing for Dorlay or for himself.

"Chris County is a very distant place. If you walked from here, it would take at least three months."

They chatted as they walked, soon arriving at the door of a laboratory on the top floor.

The apprentice bowed slightly. "You can go in by yourself. I won't go in." He turned and left.

Karl returned the bow.

The laboratory door opened at that moment, and Karl paused slightly before calmly walking inside.

At the entrance of the reception room, Dorlay looked at Karl and slowly walked up, giving him a big hug.

"I thought you would come back to find me soon. I didn't expect almost a year and a half to pass."

Looking at his old friend, Dorlay felt a sense of time flying by.

Karl also felt a little emotional. He carefully examined Dorlay and found that he had not only grown taller but also more handsome, exuding an air of authority.

He had long heard that this guy had advanced to Tier 2, and it seemed he had been at that level for quite some time.

Karl smiled faintly. "Something happened in the Eternal Forest. The Blazing Flame Merchant Guild almost got trapped, delaying things too much. By the way, the Ivan and Candace families haven't come looking for you, have they?"

Dorlay shook his head. "I don't know. They're just small families. Erlang Academy probably warned them already."

Karl said, "You have good luck, hehe."

The two slowly walked into the living room, and the door slowly closed.

Once inside, Dorlay immediately activated the magic array, isolating the interior from the exterior. At the same time, he activated the magic array he had added inside, making the surroundings of the room silent.

Karl was definitely looking for him about the Meditation Technique. He just didn't know what price he would offer.

As soon as Karl entered the room, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Magister Dorlay, I've found something that can be exchanged for your Meditation Technique. This time, you can't refuse."

Dorlay smiled faintly. "I knew this would happen. I've already prepared it for you."

Karl's eyes brightened even more. He rummaged in his arms and took out a scroll, carefully unfolding it. Instantly, a rich aura of life emanated from it.

Dorlay was puzzled. What was this thing? How could it have such a rich life essence?

At that moment, the scroll was completely opened, revealing a small section of wood.

Dorlay looked at Karl, at a loss.

Karl sighed. "I spent a lot of thought on this thing. You haven't seen this before, have you? This is a branch of the Eternal Tree."

Dorlay's head buzzed, his eyes fixed on the branch, revealing an incredible expression.

In this world, there are ten sacred trees. The first is naturally the World Tree of the Natural Elf race, unique and unparalleled. It even nurtured the entire Elf race itself, great, majestic, almost like a god.

The second is the Phoenix Tree, the place where the Phoenix race resides, with natural wood and fire dual attributes, possessing the Phoenix Fire, the most powerful flame in the world. Its life attribute is slightly lower than the World Tree.

Although the Eternal Tree ranks ninth, it is a sub-body separated from the World Tree, and also possesses extremely powerful life energy.

If a wizard had a magic staff made entirely of the Eternal Tree, their strength would undergo earth-shattering changes.

Although Karl only had a small branch, it was priceless to Dorlay.

Such a thing was definitely enough to exchange for a Meditation Technique, but which Meditation Technique to exchange for?

He couldn't help but look at Baal next to him.

At this time, Baal also looked over, his eyes shining.

This thing was also absolutely good for him.

"Just give him the Fire Element Meditation Technique. He's fire-attributed," Baal directly transmitted his voice.

Since Boss Baal had spoken, how could Dorlay not comply?

He immediately said, "You are fire-attributed. I have two Meditation Techniques, one is the Fire Elf Meditation Technique, and the other is the Fire Element Meditation Technique. The first can be cultivated to Tier 5, and the second can be cultivated to Tier 6. Although the Fire Element Meditation Technique is a little lower in level, it has the advantage of being relatively easy to cultivate and easy to advance to a higher level. Although the Fire Elf Meditation Technique is very high in level, it is more difficult to cultivate."

Karl was overjoyed. He didn't expect Dorlay to have such gains here. Whether it was Tier 5 or Tier 6, these were things he couldn't imagine. He immediately said, "I want the Fire Elf Meditation Technique."

His own Meditation Technique only went to Tier 4. After Tier 4, there was no way to go, and it was too difficult to exchange for a Meditation Technique above Tier 5. That couldn't be measured with gold coins.

Even if he used a branch of the World Tree to exchange, others might not give it, and might even be snatched away. This thing was a hot potato in his hands. He didn't expect to have such a big harvest here with Dorlay.

Tier 6 Meditation Technique, this was a great thing.

He was immediately excited.

Dorlay didn't care. Anyway, he had explained the difficulties. Since Karl wanted Tier 6, then he would give him Tier 6.

He returned to the laboratory, took out a pen, and wrote down the Meditation Technique little by little.

Karl didn't watch Dorlay write the Meditation Technique. As far as he was concerned, it was all his anyway, so he might as well take a look at the laboratory.

It had to be said that having a powerful force behind you was different. The equipment and materials here were complete, high-end alchemy tables, extremely precise weight scales, and other materials. It could be said that Dorlay had come to the right place.

This guy was said to be Tier 2 already, and his cultivation speed was quite fast.

Karl himself was also at the peak of Tier 2, almost approaching Tier 3. After exchanging for the Meditation Technique this time, his speed would probably slow down, but he would definitely be able to advance to Tier 3 within a year.

This was his confidence. What he got was not just a branch of the Eternal Tree. It took him a great deal of effort to get it, and he still owed the Blazing Flame Merchant Guild a great favor, selling himself to the Blazing Flame Merchant Guild for life.
