"Forget it, having this golden nain tree is already a good harvest, there is no need to think too much."
Standing next to Athir, Radel shook his head: "Let's think about how to distribute it."
"There's nothing much to say about the leaves. There are twelve leaves in total, so four leaves per person will be enough."
On the side, Clardy also nodded, and then pointed to the trunk of the golden nain tree: "The key is how to divide the other parts?"
"Distribute them equally." Athir also said, "In addition to the leaves, the trunk, branches and rhizomes of this Jinnain tree are also very good materials. Everyone can take one."
Like the leaves, the branches and rhizomes of the Jinnain tree are also very good materials. Not only can they be used to refine some magic weapons, but they can also serve as materials for refining certain high-level potions. They also have very good value.
Of course, because this Jinnain tree was close to death, the activity of the branches was not preserved, and its value would be greatly reduced. For a few third-class apprentices like them, it was not as valuable as the remaining leaves.
"Let's dig out this golden tree first." Standing in place, Cladi said.
"Let me do it."
On the side, Athir nodded and walked forward under the gaze of the two.
Under the gazes of the two men, he skillfully dug out the surrounding soil and dug out the tree in a way that minimized damage to the roots.
"You are very skilled."
Seeing Athir's actions, Cladi and Radel on the side were a little surprised.
"I just happened to learn some of it." Athir said directly with a calm expression.
After the golden nain tree in front of him was completely dug out, the roots of the small tree in front of him were also revealed.
There are only seven or eight rhizomes distributed throughout the root, and the longest of them is only as long as an ordinary person's palm. The whole thing looks very fragile and listless, with only a little bit of activity left.
"With its vitality lost to this extent, unless there is a large amount of resources containing powerful vitality to nourish it, there is no hope of saving it."
Looking at the roots of the small tree in front of him, even Radel, who knew nothing about this, came to this conclusion.
"What should we do? Should we divide it?" Looking at the small tree with its roots exposed in front of him, Cladi frowned.
There was silence for a moment.
If this Jinnain tree remains as it is now, it might be able to maintain a little activity and there might be a slim hope of saving it.
But if you divide it directly and separate the branches from the rhizome, then there is no hope at all. After losing the branches and leaves, it is estimated that it will completely lose its vitality after a period of time, and at that time there will be no hope at all.
"Let's divide it up." After a while, a voice broke the silence.
Radel stood there, tapping the ground with his iron crutch, and said directly to the two of them, "We finally found this place, do you want to go back empty-handed?"
"Or do you think you can find the legendary fountain of life?"
"Let's divide it up." At this time, Athir also said, "The Fountain of Life is a resource that only existed in ancient times. It has long been extinct in the current wizarding world. Even if there are still some left, they must have been carefully collected by those official wizards. It is impossible for us to have it."
"It seems that this is the only way." Standing in place, Cladi sighed softly.
In fact, the three of them knew in their hearts that in addition to the reasons mentioned above, there were some other reasons that could not be told.
If the tree was distributed in this way, everyone would get a good harvest. But if they chose to keep the tree, the three of them would probably have to fight until only the last person was left.
If a kinnain tree is divided, it can be divided into three shares, and everyone can be satisfied. But if it is not divided, then there is only one kinnain tree, how to divide it among three people? The only way is to fight and kill the other two.
After the decision to split was made, the tense atmosphere on the spot suddenly eased and was no longer as heavy as before.
"Let me divide it."
Under the gaze of the other two, Athir stepped forward and said to Clardi and Radel: "I am more familiar with this aspect and can try not to damage these materials. Do you have any opinions?"
Standing aside, listening to Athir's words, Radel and Cladi shook their heads slowly, without any objection.
They are indeed not very good at handling these materials, and if they are not careful they may damage the materials and reduce their value.
Seeing that the two had no objections, Athir turned around and started dealing with the Jinnain tree.
His technique was very skillful. During his time as a student under Edith, he had done similar experiments many times before. He easily split the golden nain tree completely.
"In addition to the four leaves per person, there is also a main trunk, a rhizome, and three branches."
Standing in place, Athir divided the whole tree into several parts, then turned around and looked at the two people behind him and said.
"Let me choose first."
Listening to Athir's words, Cladi nodded, then reached out and took the half-meter-long trunk in his hand: "I want the main trunk, which is just right for making a new scepter."
"Then I'll choose the second one."
Standing there, Athir said, "I want the rhizome."
"Then I have to choose three branches." Radel shrugged and said so.
After the distribution was made, they quickly took their respective allocated portions.
"This relic looks quite large, and judging by the operation of the surrounding wizard formations, it was at least set up by a formal wizard. Maybe there are still some things left inside."
After the distribution was completed, Cladi turned his gaze to the ruins behind him and spoke to the other two.
"Let's go in and take a look, but better be careful." Radel nodded and said so.
"I have no objection." Athir's face was calm and he just nodded quietly.
After reaching a consensus again, they walked forward silently. However, this time they separated in tacit understanding and each walked in a different direction.
Walking silently along a path, Athir observed his surroundings quietly.
The surroundings here seem very messy, with some light red fragments scattered around on the surrounding paths.
On the way, Atier also picked up some fragments. After detailed testing through the chip, he found that they were just some ordinary materials and had no value.
At the end of the road, Athir came to a hall.
There were some wardrobes and other furnishings around, as well as a very old test bench with nothing on it. It had obviously been cleaned out by the owner a long time ago.
After checking around for a while, I found that most of the things around were moved out. There was not a single piece of clothing in the closets. Although there were some simple experimental instruments in the cabinets of the test bench, there was nothing of value. It seemed that they had been emptied long ago.
"It seems that the owner of this relic did not encounter an accident, but left this place in a planned manner."
Standing there and roughly checking the surrounding situation, Athir began to wonder: "But since they left directly, why did they leave the Jinnain tree outside?"
"Or was it that the owner of this relic was only planning to leave temporarily, but something unexpected happened for some reason, so he left the Golden Tree here?" Looking at the scene around him, he tried to guess.
After searching around for a while, Athir didn't find anything, so he had to turn back and walk slowly in the original direction.
At the place where the Golden Tree originally stood, Cladi and Radel were standing there, apparently waiting for Athir.
"How was it? Did you gain anything?"
Looking at the two people in the distance and walking to the front, Atier couldn't help but ask.
"No."
Listening to Athir's words, Cladi shook his head: "The entire ruins have been emptied, and there is nothing valuable inside. I only found some metal fragments, which may have some unknown properties."
"Me too." Radel shrugged at the side. "In a room, I did find a few preserved blue crystals, but they're not worth a few magic stones."
"It seems that this ruins must have been emptied when the owner left. Except for the golden tree, which is difficult to move, all other precious things were taken away with him."
Cladi showed a helpless expression on his face: "But fortunately, judging from the current situation, the owner of this ruins should be a relatively gentle type. Apart from the witch formation outside, there are no dangerous traps set up in the ruins."
Wizard ruins do not only represent opportunities. In some ruins, those once powerful wizards often set up various terrible traps and curses to entertain those who come later and set their sights on their laboratories.
The ruins in front of us are obviously relatively safe. The former wizards did not place various terrifying traps inside, but only set up wizard formations on the outside for defense and concealment.
"It can't be said that there is no gain."
Standing there, Athir shook his head: "Although the ruins have been emptied, the witch formation outside still exists. It looks like it can last for a while."
"This is a magic array set up by a formal wizard. If some wizards who are proficient in magic arrays come here, they should be able to gain something by referring to and learning from it."
"But unfortunately, among the three of us, no one is proficient in magic arrays." On the side, Cladi showed a helpless expression on his face and replied.
"Forget it. This time, having this golden nain tree is already a good harvest."
Radel also smiled and said, "After entering these ruins left by the ancient wizards, it is already good enough to leave intact."
"That's true." Clardy nodded in agreement.
