I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

Roland didn't know how long his senior would be busy, so he checked the antiques Olylai had given him and curiously flew into the sky to search for the ruins in the garden.

There were still auroras in the sky, very magnificent. The forest on the ground, reflected by the auroras, was as beautiful as a fairyland.

At first glance, it seemed full of life, but upon closer inspection, one would find that the plants were gradually withering.

Moreover, there was no sound in the forest. It was eerily quiet.

More than an hour had passed since the god's 'judgment.' Eighty percent of the world's creatures had become extinct. The noisy birds and insects were among the first to die.

The remaining 20% would gradually die off in the coming months, including the vegetation here.

If this were a normal continent, this vibrant world would become a desolate desert in the future.

But this was the 'Abyss.' Plants and animals had extremely strong resistance to radiation. Therefore, new plants would grow, and the surviving creatures would continue to reproduce.

In the next era, even more powerful creatures would be born here.

After flying around for a while, Roland frowned.

This garden was like a vast forest with complex terrain, including swamps, lakes, plains, plateaus, and even abysses.

It didn't look like there were any ruins at all.

But judging from those antiques, there must be ancient ruins here.

After flying for a while, Roland shook his head. He thought to himself, "Searching like this is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Roland drew a circle on the space ring Olylai had given him, and then many antiques, materials, and sundries flew out, floating around him.

He left one antique behind and then put some of the items into the snake ring, asking Diana to use the 'quiz machine' to calculate their origins.

Roland played with the antique in his hand.

It was a beautiful holy basin made of gold, silver, enamel, gems, agate, and so on. It seemed to be specially used for some kind of baptismal ceremony.

It was carved with patterns of goddesses, warriors, swords, dragons, and so on. It seemed to depict a goddess baptizing a warrior to fight a dragon.

In ancient times, after the decline of the gods, dragons had a period of rise, and they even ruled a continent. There were many such stories in that era, and they are still circulating today.

Therefore, there were many such antiques in ancient times.

Olylai had a discerning eye. This antique was indeed very good. Roland could vaguely feel that it must have experienced many legendary stories.

With a little alchemy, it could become a top-tier magical item, or even a good holy object. Maybe it could even be used to summon a Seraph or borrow the power of the Seraph Goddess.

After playing with it for a while, Diana gave three coordinates.

One coordinate was similar to the 'Tukala coordinate' given by Olylai.

One coordinate came from near the Yan River in the sky—the nest of insects.

One coordinate came from the direction where Roland had dealt with the magic insects before—there should be ruins in that direction.

Roland was stunned and said, "It seems that these antiques come from three places."

Diana's voice came from the snake ring, she said: "No, they all come from one place—Tukala's nest.

Some of these antiques originally belonged to that ruin. Later, they were 'sent' to Tukala's nest by some people.

Some were collected by the magic insects into the nest, and then sent to Tukala's nest by the magic insects.

Some were picked back from the ruins by that little witch."

Roland suddenly understood.

He sneered: "Heh heh, now even the chain of evidence for you controlling the magic insects is complete. Let's see how you can quibble."

Knowing that the antique in his hand was also picked by Olylai from the ruins, Roland planned to let the antique take him there directly.

So that he wouldn't have to fly around while checking the coordinates.

He took out his magic catalog and looked through it, finding a suitable spell. Then, he recited the spell towards the antique.

After the spell was completed, the antique flew towards a direction with a whoosh. Roland hurriedly followed.

The antique seemed to be flying fast, but in reality, it wasn't even as fast as a horse, let alone a flying creature.

Roland became impatient after following for a while.

He thought about it and suddenly remembered Count Duncan's secret treasure—the small hammer and chisel.

Speaking of which, this set of secret treasures was also very good. But when Roland first got it, his magic power was not enough to support it.

Later, after he advanced, he encountered big monsters like Coleridge that couldn't be killed by normal means.

And the small hammer and chisel were not weapons specifically used for fighting, so Roland had never taken them out to use.

As a result, the small hammer and chisel became Leona's toys!

When renovating the Holy Church before, the old Black Abyss guys borrowed this thing to use. They praised the alchemical ability of this secret treasure.

Now that Roland remembered this treasure, he took it out.

After trying a few times, Roland summoned a complete illustrated book about dragons from the snake ring.

After flipping through it for a while, Roland pointed at the antique flying in front. Then the small hammer and chisel flew over and circled around it. Then, the antique turned into a half-meter-long, gold and silver-made, gem-studded little dragon.

It was actually a 'Hedia Archipelago Thunder Falcon'!

It was called a falcon, but it was actually a small dragon. Although very small, they stood at the top of the food chain in the Hedia Archipelago. Even first-tier creatures didn't dare to provoke these little guys.

Their bodies were very strong, and their speed was very fast.

Southerners believed that this thing was related to thunder. But they had nothing to do with the thunder element.

The reason why Southerners had such a wrong perception was because when they flew, they would make a rumbling sound like lightning.

And the wizards knew that it was actually a sonic boom.

After this little dragon was carved, it seemed to come alive, chirping twice around Roland, and then disappeared with a whoosh.

Roland was overjoyed and hurriedly followed.

But he actually found that he couldn't keep up!

After chasing for only two or three seconds, the little dragon disappeared!

After another two or three seconds, a small figure appeared in the limit of his vision, and then flew back with a whoosh.

Then, this little thing, as if playing, circled around Roland and led the way.

Roland was overjoyed. This little dragon was definitely much faster than a normal 'Crimson Thunder Falcon'!

Since this was an alchemical creation, Roland couldn't observe its realm, but to be able to accelerate to such a fast speed in an instant, its body strength was definitely very terrifying. That small body could probably withstand a tank without deforming!

If this little thing were to deal with a cyclops, it would directly crash into the giant's body, and the giant's body would be torn apart like tofu.

Roland thought to himself: "What is the origin of this antique that it created such an amazing little monster!

The dead girl must have taken it away for a reason, it must have some special origin. But it is clearly a baptismal basin made of ordinary materials."

This antique seemed particularly suitable for being alchemized into a dragon.

But if you look closely, Roland found that this little dragon was a bit strange compared to the Hedia Archipelago Thunder Falcon.

It had some strange barbs on its body, and the tongue in its mouth was not a normal tongue, but a tongue like an alien—there was a strange and disgusting proboscis inside the tongue.

Looking closely again, there were some small eyes hidden on the little dragon's forehead. The tail was also a bit like a tentacle.

After observing for a while, Roland couldn't help but feel a darkness in front of his eyes.

Could it be that it was another crazy thing?

Roland thought to himself: 'However, it doesn't have that crazy aura. The story behind this antique should be related to the Abyss.'

Roland felt that this guess was very reasonable.

How could there be any dragons in this garden? Everything here is from the Abyss.

I don't know what Abyss thing the antique is related to, but that Abyss thing is definitely not a dragon.

However, since Roland alchemized it according to the appearance of a dragon, it became an Abyss Dragon.

Suddenly, Roland felt a heaviness on his back. It was as if a little girl had suddenly stepped on his back. But she was blown away by the strong wind in an instant.

It seemed to be Leona, she wanted to play with this little dragon.

In the next second, Leona appeared near the little dragon again, and then was blown away by the wind again. This suddenly appearing figure frightened the little dragon, causing it to scream in a panic. It also sprayed a small flame in the direction where Leona had gone, seemingly expressing anger.

Roland was a little helpless.

The latest novel is at Six/Nine/Book/Bar/First/Release!

He looked at the somewhat panicked little dragon in mid-air and thought to himself: 'This little guy even has some intelligence... The story experienced by this antique is very unusual!'

At this time, it was very close to the coordinates of that ruin.

Soon, Roland followed the little dragon to the sky above a very tall and dense forest.

Roland followed the little dragon and slowly decelerated, entering the deep forest.

After Roland landed on a large rock, the little dragon landed on his shoulder.

Then, a figure suddenly appeared and grabbed the little dragon away.

Now that there was no one to lead the way, Roland was speechless.

However, the ruins were nearby.

He might even be in the ruins himself.

Roland once again found his magic catalog from the snake ring and began looking for a suitable spell.

Just a simple positioning spell, but Roland actually had to flip through the book. If the wizards in the South saw this, they would definitely say that this magic apprentice was not skilled enough.

But if the black abyss wizards were to see this, they would definitely give a thumbs up.

Wizards who aren't very proficient in normal spells are often the kind of black wizards who spend their entire lives researching how to kill more efficiently.

To put it bluntly, this group of wizards doesn't really understand white magic, and they don't even understand much black magic. However, they have practiced every single black magic spell to perfection.

It's already very commendable that guys like Roland can study other magic in their spare time and even compile a magic catalog.

Soon, Roland found a few suitable spells.

This is a spell recorded in the magic books given by the White Queen.

This spell can turn a distant city into a small sandbox model, and then whatever the caster does to the things in the sandbox, the city will change accordingly.

If the caster destroys the sand city, the city will also be destroyed.

Catherine's sandbox treasure borrowed some principles from this spell. However, Catherine surpassed her teachers in those years, so her sandbox is more powerful and has more functions than this spell.

Leaving aside treasures like the sandbox, just being able to use this spell is like being a god.

Because using the sandbox relies on the power of a secret treasure, while the White Queen relies solely on magic power, using a pile of sand as a spellcasting tool to do the work of a god.

Roland obviously can't use this spell now, and he hasn't carefully studied this spell in the short half a year.

However, this spell is a large model composed of multiple modules.

As long as a part of the model is used separately, a small sand ruin can be created, simulating the ruins covered by plants in the forest.

Based on this small sandbox, Roland can understand the situation of this ruin.

After reviewing the spell, Roland looked at the boulder under his feet.

There is no sand around here, but decomposing some sand from this boulder is enough.

Thinking of this, Roland took out his magic wand and pointed it at the stone under his feet, casting a decomposition spell. Then, many, many particles flew into Roland's eyes.

Roland reached out and grabbed those particles, and then he was stunned.

What he decomposed didn't seem to be sand, but many, many tiny chitin particles.

"Huh?"

Roland looked down at his feet in astonishment, and found that what was under his feet was not a boulder at all, but a strange giant creature.

This thing is a bit like a large crab with a lobster's abdomen, but its feet look like large tree roots parasitized by many strange plants.

This creature should have originally been colored, able to blend into the environment. However, the flesh and blood in its body have been almost completely decomposed, and the carapace has become very pale.

Therefore, Roland regarded its back as a large stone.

If its 'plant feet' hadn't changed their appearance, Roland wouldn't have recognized this as a creature.

Frowning, Roland unfolded his mental power and swept through the surrounding forest.

The plants here are very huge, and the entire forest is full of vitality. If you look closely, you will find that the trees here have actually begun to wither.

There are sounds in this forest, and they are very noisy. If there were abyss biologists here, they would know that the creatures in the forest are breeding and mating in the last moments of their lives.

Compared to other regions, this place blocks a lot of radiation due to the particularly tall and dense trees. This allows the creatures to live longer than in other places.

However, the radiation here is also very terrifying. If ordinary people who have not been exposed to magical radiation were to walk around here for a short while, they would feel dizzy and vomit uncontrollably.

After returning home, they would fall ill in bed and their whole bodies would fester and die within a week.

Opening his eyes, Roland looked at the nearby vegetation.

In the surrounding dense and withered bushes, which were more than one person tall, there were countless corpses and remains hidden.

Looking down carefully, the tall grass was also covered with countless 'sand grains', which looked as if a sandstorm had just occurred here—those were countless insect corpses that had been decomposed by the aurora into particles.

This world, more than an hour ago, should have experienced a heavy rain.

This rain was very heavy, but it was also very short.

After the heavy rain, most of the small creatures became extinct. Then came the large creatures, and finally the medium-sized creatures.

These surviving creatures are desperately breeding at the last moment of their lives, trying to leave behind the spark of their clan.

In this divine punishment, they can't do anything, and they don't even know anything.

They only saw a light appearing in the sky, and then the whole world was destroyed.
