After Herag entered the Land of Dawn, he didn't pay attention to the happenings over at the opening war in the Elf Plane, not expecting the difficulty to be so high.

Upon thinking carefully, he understood that apart from Malcolm, who was a Crystalization Wizard, the rest were basically Wizards in the Gaseous or Liquid Stage.

With age restrictions under sixty, this is considered young among Wizards, and most people haven't built sufficient strength.

At least in the realm of plane wars, even a Level 1 Wizard is considered quite weak.

In the Barren Land, advancing to an Official Wizard is already challenging, let alone becoming a Crystalization Wizard before sixty.

Those Wizards who participated in the selection either probably perished in the Elf Plane or their performance was insufficient to meet the passing requirements.

"Is Mr. Bannings not over at the Elf Plane?" Herag asked.

Bannings adjusted his monocle and said, "Last time, I only organized the selection in the Barren Land, but didn't actually participate in the opening war in the Elf Plane."

"I see," Herag nodded.

Bannings glanced at Herag and suddenly said, "I didn't expect you to advance to a Crystalization Wizard so quickly. Are you here to participate in the cradle operation?"

"That's right, I just came here to participate in the cradle operation," Herag said.

Bannings chuckled, "What a coincidence, I am also responsible for organizing this cradle operation. Since there's nothing else at the moment, let me take you to handle the procedures."

"Thank you, Lord Bannings," Herag said.

The first floor of the Wizard Alliance Hall was no different from other offices, particularly spacious, with various windows handling different affairs.

The registration procedure for the cradle operation was simple, only needing to present a Talisman Stone for a simple registration, then it was just a wait of a month before the official start.

While registering, Herag also looked through some related materials on the cradle operation.

These materials were more detailed, describing some situations of the X-617 world.

X-617 is the world number, converted from spatial coordinates through some calculations, having a unique nature.

This world was discovered by the exploration personnel of the Wizard Alliance Expedition Team and determined to be a world with life, habitable, and utilizable after exploration.

After rating the world and measuring various data, it was confirmed as a Low-tier World.

Regarding the ownership of this world, it was decided after a round table meeting and thus this cradle operation was initiated.

According to the time calculation of the Wizard Plane, the X-617 world has existed for 3.5 billion years, various life forms have appeared, but there is currently no highly intelligent civilized race.

Since there is no highly intelligent race, conquest poses no difficulty, merely needing to control the World Will.

So, the Wizard Alliance is in no hurry, directly using this cradle operation as a trial for potential young Wizards.

After completing the procedures with Herag, Bannings smiled and asked, "Have you considered joining our expedition team in the future?"

"Can I join? I'm currently just a Crystalization Wizard, and I also don't really understand what the expedition team specifically does," Herag pondered.

He knew little about the expedition team, having only had brief contact in the Barren Land, and had not really been in touch with Bannings and those from the expedition team.

"Of course you can. For a Wizard like you, advancing to a Level 2 Wizard is just a matter of time. Moreover, even a Crystalization Wizard is enough to become a member of the expedition team. Our expedition team is an organization under the Wizard Alliance, mainly aiming to discover and conquer other planes, and acquire resources," Bannings said.

Herag began to seriously consider this issue, knowing that he would need more and more resources in the future.

Currently, his most reliable way to obtain resources is to earn Contribution Points and exchange them for resources through Serlandir's channels.

But the problem is that the ordinary way to earn Contribution Points is too slow, likely not enough to support future resource needs.

Joining the expedition team is indeed a very good choice, albeit more dangerous, but the rewards are also very rich.

Once he advances to a Level 2 Wizard, participating in plane expeditions would be relatively safer.

Born cautious, Herag felt he needed enough understanding before making a decision.

Seeing him pondering, Bannings smiled, "No need to rush your decision, I'm just asking. When you've made up your mind, you can contact me anytime through the Talisman Stone."

"Thank you, Mr. Bannings," Herag expressed his gratitude.

...

After saying goodbye to Bannings, Herag left the alliance hall while Bannings still had some expedition team affairs to handle there.

The street outside the Wizard Alliance Hall was empty, with no carriages, as it seemed carriages were not allowed to linger idly there.

Herag then intended to walk to the adjacent street to see if he could find a carriage.

There was a narrow, dim alleyway connecting the two streets.

As Herag walked into the alley, he suddenly stopped halfway through.

A person appeared ahead, a boy with a face full of freckles.

Herag looked up and recognized the person: "Malcolm."

He didn't expect to encounter Malcolm here.

Malcolm flashed a simple smile, looking like a young boy, and said, "What a coincidence, meeting you again. I didn't expect you to already be a Crystalization Wizard, it seems there must be some secret about you. Last time, you were lucky to escape, otherwise, I would have had a very interesting test subject."

"This time, however, I won't let you escape."

Magic Power surged from Malcolm, clearly ready to make a move.

Herag showed no fear, his expression unchanged while looking at Malcolm, as now he was no longer helpless against Malcolm.

Last time when facing Malcolm, if not for Batty's timely arrival, Herag would have perished at Malcolm's hands.

But now, everything was different.

Although Malcolm knew that Herag had become a Crystalization Wizard, he still didn't regard him seriously.

As he was about to make a move, a voice came from behind Herag: "Malcolm, if you lay a hand on Herag, I have the right to revoke your cradle operation qualification."

Herag turned around and saw it was Bannings.

Bannings walked over calmly, patted Herag's shoulder with a smile, and then looked at Malcolm, "You are both participants in the cradle operation, you cannot attack one another, at least not now."

"Your luck sure is good." Malcolm dared not act rashly in front of Bannings, gave Herag a cold look, then withdrew the surge of Magic Power and turned away.
