Chapter 172 - UnnameChapter 170 Tom, Your Hairstyle is Quite Unique!d

While Grindelwald's reputation began to turn around, Li Wade stopped paying attention to what was happening outside.

Because the seed had already been planted…

just as Grindelwald had confidently said he had planted a seed in the hearts of Li Wade and Tom.

Only this time, it was the other way around.

Li Wade had planted a seed in Grindelwald's heart, an invisible seed.

As for what kind of fruit this seed would bear in the future, it was still unclear.

Even the system couldn't accurately predict it.

Otherwise, why hadn't the system suddenly exploded with merit points after Grindelwald had completely changed his style of doing things?

Li Wade had his own understanding of this.

The future was uncertain; strictly speaking, there were countless possibilities.

In Li Wade's view, there would be many different timelines.

Each timeline had a different future.

When Grindelwald decided on his ambition, the prophetic vision he saw—the vision of himself successfully ruling the world… was that vision really fake?

Li Wade didn't think so.

Grindelwald's prophecy might not be entirely untrue, but... the future he saw might just be one of countless possibilities.

According to the original timeline, Grindelwald, while developing his career, would have been derailed by a certain anchoring event, leading to a timeline of failure.

Therefore, without a decisive anchoring event, the system cannot determine which timeline the future will lead to.

In other words, even if Grindelwald changed his methods, the possibility of a bad future still exists.

Therefore, the system won't award merit points until that anchoring event occurs.

This so-called anchoring event is easy to understand.

For example, when Li Wade used the Resurrection Stone to help Dumbledore resolve his inner conflict, resulting in a surge in his power and preventing him from being corrupted by Voldemort's dark magic,that was an anchoring event.

Because this event undoubtedly had significant benefits for the future, the system directly awarded Li Wade a large number of merit points afterward.

However, these merit points weren't actually that many.

Li Weide guessed that this was because if Dumbledore didn't die, although there would be a good future, it was uncertain just how good it would be.

The system might have its own calculation method, comprehensively evaluating countless futures and then giving Li Weide a certain reward.

However, Li Weide didn't delve into this aspect...because anything involving timelines was extremely complex, with far too many factors involved.

Even if Li Weide really wanted to understand, he didn't have the ability right now.

Anyway, he only needed to trigger the system's reward mechanism according to his own understanding to gain huge benefits.

Why bother to fully comprehend it?

Therefore, since Grindelwald in the outside world had already changed his ways according to his wishes,he only needed to wait and see how things developed.

There was no need to interfere, and besides, with Li Weide's current strength, he couldn't interfere for the time being.

Although his strength was already quite good, it wasn't enough against a wizard like Grindelwald.

Li Weide still needed to develop!

So, his most important task now was to research how to break through his limits and continuously become stronger.

Secondly, he needed to research some new things to assist him in battle…

Last time, he barely managed to hold off Grindelwald with his weak strength.

Although it was extremely dangerous, it also made him realize that some fancy trump cards could be very useful when needed.

Therefore, early the next morning after buying the mutated seed, Li Weide planted it in the greenhouse in his garden.

For safety's sake, Li Wade planned to cultivate the seedlings in a greenhouse before transplanting them to the Wizarding Tower.

There was also a large open space outside the Wizarding Tower.

Li Wade planned to build a greenhouse there as well.

Any potentially dangerous plants could be planted there.

After all, Dumbledore would still visit them at the safe house from time to time.

Planting in the safe house's garden wasn't actually safe.

Right now, planting mandrakes wasn't too dangerous, and Dumbledore could turn a blind eye.

But if he planted something like a whooper willow later… Dumbledore wouldn't be so lenient.

Li Wade didn't want his painstakingly cultivated new varieties to be confiscated because of some potential danger.

A week passed quickly.

It was soon the end of July.

During this time, although the system refreshed the quality of the goods, they weren't things Li Wade urgently needed, so he didn't waste his merit points.

During this time, Li Weide was busy tending to his "vegetable garden" every day...that's what Tom called Li Weide's place where he grew magical plants.

Only in his spare time would he read books, studying spells and transfiguration.

Of course, since the books he read were all produced by the system and disguised as novels,

Tom considered Li Weide's rare few hours of study time as neglecting his duties...   

What diligent and studious wizard spends all their time "growing vegetables" and reading "novels"?

However, Tom secretly rejoiced at seeing Lee Wade slacking off.

He mentally shouted, "Keep slacking off!

As long as you keep slacking off!

I'll catch up to you in the shortest time!

Then, I'll be on top!

You'll be on the bottom... I'm talking about status!"

Lee Wade, unaware of Tom's thoughts, was busy tending to the mutated fang geranium seed.

The mutated seed was growing much slower than Lee Wade had imagined.

Even with the help of nutrient solution, it only sprouted a tiny shoot after week...completely different from the rapidly growing biting cabbage with nutrient solution!

Because the seedling was still small, it didn't seem much different from a regular fang geranium for the time being.

However, the seedling was quite strong, and Lee Wade planned to transplant it back to the wizard tower in a couple of days.

In the past week, Li Wade had Toby build a similar greenhouse at the Wizard Tower, built to the same specifications.

House-elves are incredibly skilled at this…

As for this place, all that's needed is daily irrigation and some nutrient solution.

"Tom!

Run!

We need to water everything before 3 PM!"

Li Wade, carrying a set of herbalism tools, used a flight charm to fly down from upstairs in a cloud of black smoke.

Tom, carrying two large iron buckets of nutrient solution, followed Li Wade, bumping and clattering down the stairs…

Yes, this guy is becoming more and more human, and he seems quite strong, able to carry two buckets weighing over twenty pounds each at a brisk pace.

However, inevitably, some nutrient solution spilled while running with the buckets…

So, Tom, who had been sitting in the living room reading, got drenched in nutrient solution!

"You bastard! You…"

Tom hadn't even finished cursing.

Li Weide waved his wand, "Clean and fresh!"

"Ugh..." Tom was speechless.

Tom, why are you yelling at it? It's just a cute little kitten! What bad intentions could it possibly have?"

Tom hid behind Li Weide, baring his big, sharp teeth and nodding in agreement.

"Ptooey!"

Tom spat out the foam that tasted like cleaning detergent, "You... whether it's cute or not is another matter!

Why did you stuff my mouth full of foam with your cleaning charm!"

"Sorry, I haven't practiced much lately, my spells have gotten a bit rusty... Anyway, we need to get to work!"

Li Weide said, and then ran off with the cat.

Tom stared at Li Weide, his face ashen. Spells rusty?

I don't believe you for a second!

A wizard who doesn't study magic and spends his days tinkering with farming?

I'd like to see what kind of crap you're busy growing all day!

Tom grabbed his wand angrily and followed him.

Li Weide's greenhouse was in a corner of the garden.

Tom slowly walked up, intending to peek through the door.

Just as he approached, he heard Li Weide's anxious voice.

"No… Tom, what did you water it with?! Is this nutrient solution?

Ouch… Holy crap?

No way! You idiot!

You got the wrong thing…"

ust as Tom was wondering why Li Weide was in such a hurry, and had just opened the greenhouse door,a red blur whooshed past his face!

Tom felt a chill run down his spine…

Before he could even touch his head, he was shocked to discover that in front of Li Weide and his cat was a strange-looking plant!

And… the plant's leaves stood upright, its petals open and turned outwards, like a gaping maw full of sharp teeth!

Most absurdly, these "sharp teeth" were rapidly firing towards Li Weide!

  "Tap tap tap!"

Almost all the "teeth" were blocked by Livid's Ironclad Charm... except for a very few that slipped through...and Tom's attack was purely accidental... because Livid was standing with his back to the greenhouse door!

"Livid!

What the hell are you doing now?!"

Tom was completely numb.

Recalling that red shadow just now, there was no doubt that it was also a "teeth"!

If it had shifted just a little bit to the left, his face would have been hit! He would have been disfigured if not killed!

Tom immediately cast his Ironclad Charm on himself, and then retreated from the greenhouse with lingering fear!

As he left the greenhouse and closed the door, several "teeth" were still embedded in the greenhouse door!

"Petrify them all!" With Livid's incantation,the "tap tap tap" sound in the greenhouse immediately disappeared.

Livid and Tom walked out of the greenhouse, wiping their sweat and still feeling lingering fear.

"Wade!

What the hell are you doing?!"

"Sorry!

Tom, I... Pfft!" Wade burst out laughing when he saw Tom's hairstyle.

  "What are you laughing at?"

"Tom, your hairstyle is quite unique!" Wade chuckled.

  "Hairstyle?"

Tom looked suspiciously at a nearby water tank.

In the reflection on the water's surface, Tom's once flowing black hair was now half-shaved off!

"Huh? My... where's my hair?

Holy crap!

Where's my hair!

Wade!

I'll fight you to the death!"
