On the vast wizard continent, railways extended in all directions. In the center of the railway network was the central area of the continent, where the city of wizards and wizard towers stood. The Magic Crystal System Reform Research Conference was held there, and wizards travelled to the city on aircraft and locomotives from everywhere on the continent and even from other continents.

All kinds of wizards in wizard robes walked down from the dock. The North Train Station was filled with crowds. Elemental wizards in white robes and official wizards could be seen everywhere. This conference had attracted most of the elite upper-class in the Wizard Alliance.

The ground level of the wizard tower was converted into a spacious conference hall. It was an important room where wizards discussed issues and communicated with each other when the Wizard Alliance held important meetings.

Wizards walked up the long stairs, crossed the great castle, and arrived at the tower. Members of the Gathering of Wizards had arrived quite a while ago. Even Lady Catherine would attend this meeting herself to discuss issues of the magic crystal system.

Seats were arranged in a semi-circle. More than 10,000 wizards who were at least experts in the field, elemental wizards, or headmasters of the wizard school attended. Average official wizards had not earned a seat here. Tower wizards who explored the astral world had never imagined this day would come.

When the crowd saw the magic crystal and the magic crystal system, they started a heated discussion. No one ever thought that the wizard civilization would be changed in this way.

Even though the magic crystal system was not perfected, it had unclogged the bottleneck of the wizard civilization and removed the obstacle to its development. All the wizards engaged in discussions about how they could enhance the magic crystal system, and how to utilize magic crystals in every facet of the wizard civilization.

“It’s a miracle. The name ‘magic crystal’ is spot on. It is indeed the crystallization of magic powers!”

“It is an invention that changed the era!”

“Enabling commoners to have the same capabilities of apprentice wizards and learn about witchcraft. In this way, all will become wizards, all will wield the power of witchcraft, and all will be a part of the Wizard Alliance and the wizard civilization.”

Cook Bay stood up and said, “It’s not just about letting commoners use alchemy equipment or supernatural powers. It is a kind of energy, a crystallization of wizard energy and power. It’s had a huge impact on the traditional wizard system. If we could increase the mana stored within it, we could build higher wizard towers, larger aircrafts. We could even float elemental towers in the sky. Moreover, when we have endless energy, building the legendary Floating Space City may not be a dream anymore!”

The crowd almost lost control when they heard this speech. They realized that magic crystals were not only powerful for commoners, but even more powerful for wizards. The small gems would change the entire world completely.

Once the conference ended, those assembled in the tower formed the Magic Crystal System Management Committee. As one of the first elite alchemy warlocks, Cook Bay joined as a member. The first batch of magic crystals was immediately produced in the alchemy workshops in the city and spread across the entire wizard continent.

Many magic crystal tools were invented and flowed out into the wizard continent. However, the wizard continent had a much lower proportion of saints than Maria’s World. The first-generation magic crystals lacked convenience in recharging and usage. Therefore, their usage was restricted to a few large cities. Reform and research of the second-generation magic crystals were still in progress.

With Lady Catherine’s suggestion about collecting the power of consciousness, Cook Bay built the first magic crystal tower after around 20 years. Alchemy Master Cook Bay’s name was more celebrated than ever, almost catching up with the first alchemy warlock, Brock Kim.

However, magic towers had to be built inside metropolises. The bigger the population, the more power of consciousness was absorbed from the people, and more mana could be collected by magic crystal towers.

“Now, we shall give Mr. Cook Bay a wizard tower merit emblem. Only those who make a huge contribution to the Wizard Alliance and the entire wizarding civilization can receive this emblem of honor!”

Cook Bay received the wizard tower merit emblem in the tower. Many wizards in the audience sent him their congratulations. Of course, some were jealous and bitter. Controversy over someone from a foreign race receiving such honor was inevitable.

Cook Bay was thrilled, as he was the first foreigner to ever receive the emblem. Also, this award implied the possibility of becoming a member of the Gathering of Wizards. He had the chance to become the first goblin member of the Gathering of Wizards!

“If I could join the Gathering of Wizards, I could play a part in making major decisions about the Wizard Alliance, and improve the status of goblins!” Cook said in his heart.

Cook Bay clenched his fists, pinned the wizard tower merit emblem to his robe, and walked down the long stairs. He headed home and found that a special letter was in his mailbox when he arrived.

“Dear Mr. Cook Bay,

I would like to invite you to help me with the design and construction of a floating space tower. See you in the City of Leaves in the Forest of Fairies on the 6th of August.

Randhir Eranbell”

Cook Bay broke into laughter and said, “Build a floating space tower? Is he dreaming?”

Cook Bay had first proposed the idea of floating space towers. However, even Cook Bay himself knew that building a true floating space tower was dreamlike in its impossibility. A true floating space tower would be a level-seven mythical alchemy entity, which could only be built and controlled by level-seven mythical wizards.

It would be able to move freely, attack land units from the air, and even rise up to the bitwall and star worlds, becoming the crucial vehicle for humans to explore the bitwall and the truth of the world. Its value was undeniable, but it was still theoretical and no one could build it at this stage.

Moreover, floating such a huge tower in the air and keeping it in the sky would require a massive amount of energy. And yet, someone had invited him to build a floating space tower. As the modern alchemy master, Cook was surprised and amused. He held the letter in his hand and shook his giant green head and pointy ears.

“Floating space tower! Floating space tower! Randhir Eranbell!” Cook repeated to himself.

The name seemed familiar to Cook Bay. He suddenly remembered that Randhir Eranbell was the Great Elemental Wizard who had given him the book “The Mysteries of Alchemy” when he was young. Since then, Cook Bay had kept this book with him at all times. The foundation of his alchemy skills were found in this book, and the floating space city on the cover had been in his dreams ever since.

“It’s Mr. Randhir! Maybe I should go!” Cook Bay said.

The goblin was thrilled. He was very grateful to the man who had changed his journey in alchemy so greatly.

The second-generation magic crystal system was finished. He did not take any credit and did not participate in its distribution. Instead, Cook Bay had packed and boarded the aircraft to the City of Leaves. It was on the Titan continent in the territory of fairies. Cook Bay had not been to the Titan continent for a long time.
