Please hurry up

After realizing that the magic elements can be absorbed and stored in the beads, Carlos became very excited. This means that as long as the beads are fully charged, he will be able to return to Palos Magic School.

What surprised him was why this bead could automatically recharge in this place. Does this mean that the magical elements here are extremely concentrated?

At this moment, Carlos remembered that the thin and weak young man named Horus seemed to have mentioned that this is the Misty Forest.

Wait!

The Misty Forest!!!

This is one of the three most dangerous areas in the Durant Kingdom. Even high-level magicians have concerns about their lives when entering here, let alone ordinary people. Although Carlos' Palos Magic School is relatively close to the Misty Forest, even their school's wizards only dare to explore the outskirts of the forest.

Looking at the intensity of the elements here, he must be in the depths of the Misty Forest! Carlos became even more fearful for a moment, afraid that a monster would suddenly appear and swallow him up.

He looked at the beads in his hand nervously and muttered, "Faster, faster, even faster!"

However, no matter how rich the magical elements are in Misty Forest, their concentration cannot compare to that of a magic crystal. At the current charging speed, Carlos estimates that it will probably take less than half an hour to fully charge.

He once again, like a startled mouse, hid behind the large rock and began studying the scroll that Horus had just given him. Earlier, he found it troublesome and planned to study it later after returning. But now, it was not possible. There was danger lurking here at any moment, and Carlos needed to find a way to protect himself!

He may not have magical talent and cannot absorb magic elements. However, he possesses extensive knowledge of magical theory and has been practicing meditation since childhood, which has given him a decent level of mental power. By slightly focusing his attention, he utilizes his mental power to perceive the magic array on the parchment scroll.

After some exploration, he discovered that this 'Roaring Inferno' magic array is similar to conventional engraving magic. Both utilize special materials and techniques to condense multiple magical elements onto a scroll.

And there is also a hidden pathway inside this scroll. Only by focusing one's mental energy and triggering this pathway can the magic on the scroll be unleashed. For Carlos, this is simply a lifesaver.

However, these magic scrolls are extremely expensive because it requires highly skilled scribes and costly rare materials to stabilize and maintain the magic array for a long period of time.

After waiting for a few minutes, Carlos, feeling bored, started observing his surroundings. Suddenly, he noticed that the plants and flowers growing around him seemed somewhat familiar. He approached them and carefully examined them before exclaiming in astonishment.

"Oh my goodness, isn't this a White Orchid!"

For magicians, this is a precious medicinal herb and the main ingredient in many magical potions.

Upon careful recollection, Carlos remembered that the white orchid is originally from the Misty Forest. Every year, numerous adventurers venture deep into the Misty Forest to gather medicinal herbs, including the white orchid.

Carlos went down and continuously collected white orchids. In just a short ten minutes, he collected over a hundred white orchid plants. Without a backpack, he had to take off his clothes and tie up the gathered white orchids.

Just as he was about to continue collecting, Carlos suddenly heard a faint rustling sound. Looking up, he saw a pair of enormous eyes staring at him from the gaps in the distant bushes.

After a moment of hesitation, Carlos decisively took out the magic scroll and opened it, aligning the engraved magic array on it towards the front.

A magical beast covered in purple patterns dashed down from the hillside. This creature resembles a lizard, measuring over four meters long and exuding a terrifying dark element.

Although terrified, Carlos still focused his mental energy and triggered the activation pattern on the scroll.

The magic scroll, like a cannon, spewed out a massive burst of raging flames, covering an area of over ten meters in front of Carlos. The intense heat instantly turned many trees into charcoal. The charging lizard monster was also engulfed by the ferocious flames.

However, to Carlos's astonishment, after the flames dispersed, the lizard monster seemed to have suffered little damage.

The Warcraft opens its mouth and lets out a roar.

Carlos, who was about to turn around and run away, suddenly froze in place, unable to move. This is a type of mental magic attack!

Carlos feels the threat of death getting closer and closer.

As he was filled with anxiety and fear, the cold voice echoed in his mind once again.

[Please set the coordinates.]

Carlos struggled to open his mouth and uttered two numbers.

"（0,0）"

[The coordinates have been entered: 0,0.]

[Begin transmission]

Just as the Warcraft was about to open its abyssal jaws to devour its prey, the human in front of it suddenly disappeared.

With a blink of an eye, Carlos's figure appeared in his own room at Red Leaf Academy.

"Phew, that was close!"

In that moment before leaving, Carlos could clearly feel the Warcraft getting closer and closer to him, life and death hanging in the balance.

The Misty Forest is too terrifying. Carlos recalled the Warcraft Bestiary he had seen before and could basically confirm that he was attacked by a sixth-level monster, the Shadow Lizard.

This kind of Warcraft, let alone the fourth-order 'Roaring Inferno', even sixth-order magic may not be able to kill it. In situations of the same level, Warcraft is much more terrifying than a mage.

Carlos looked down at the white orchid in his hand, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

This is a white orchid, and in the market, one plant is worth at least 10 Durant coins. With over a hundred plants, that would be over a thousand coins!

After selling this batch of goods, Carlos will be able to buy a magic crystal for Mia, which normally costs around 100 gold coins.

Unwrapping the bundled clothes, Carlos took out the white orchid inside and carefully brushed off the dirt on it.

Carlos is not a pharmacist, so he cannot fully utilize the value of these medicinal herbs in his hands and can only sell them. However, he definitely cannot sell them to the school as it may expose his secret ability to teleport at will.

So if he wants to sell in bulk, he can only go to the city. There is a city several kilometers away from the Palos Magic School, but it is actually close to the outskirts of the Dark Forest. Selling there would definitely result in lower prices.

And there, it is a chaotic place with frequent conflicts. Carlos, an ordinary person, may face danger when selling his precious herbs.

After careful consideration, Carlos believes that if he wants to sell at a high price, the city of Adley in the capital is the best choice.

Even though the city of Adley is thousands of kilometers away from here, Carlos possesses teleportation skills, so it only takes a blink of an eye to travel there.

Although Carlos doesn't know the coordinates of the capital city, he now knows the original coordinates and the coordinates of the Misty Forest, providing a clear reference system. As long as he finds an accurate map of Durant Kingdom, he will be able to deduce the coordinates of the capital city.

The current major issue is that he lacks the magical elements to charge the beads.

The first successful teleportation was achieved with the help of a magic crystal provided by Allison. The second successful teleportation occurred because the magical elements within the Misty Forest were significantly more concentrated, hundreds or even thousands of times greater than in a typical environment.

Now, Carlos is in Red Leaf Academy where the magical elements are scarce and only slightly more concentrated than in places where ordinary people live.

After deep contemplation, Carlos had a sudden inspiration and grinned, saying, "The magical element concentration at the Red Leaf Academy is not enough, but I can go to other academies to borrow some!"
