Chapter 163 Trivia and Appointments

Chapter 163 Trivia and Appointments

Under the ant land barrier, the interior of the academy is like a small or medium-sized city.

Being in the same living area, the apprentice dormitory and wizard residence are not worth mentioning in comparison. The wizard residence is the largest area of ​​all areas, and it contains independent castles, palaces, spires, round towers, twin towers, garden villas, etc.

Ivan's new home is located in such an area, not far from Randall's round tower.

The Twin Towers consist of two circular towers connected by a corridor bridge in the middle. The first floor of the tower has an area of ​​nearly 600 square meters, and the upper floor is slightly narrower. The two towers look exactly the same.

If you feel that the area is not enough, you can expand in all directions. There is no second building within nearly one thousand meters. For example, Lydia's castle was expanded.

The previous owner was too lazy to build any additional buildings. The tower has everything you need, including a living room, bedroom, meditation room, laboratory, cultivation room, small workshop, small testing ground, protection room, etc.

The protection room is quite special. It can draw on part of the power of the academy's protective magic circle to protect wizards from accidentally destroying their own homes.

Ivan could understand this. If he didn't give the wizards some protective power, they would definitely set it up themselves, and then all kinds of chaotic forces would appear in the academy.

"The protective force pulled down can be adjusted, but no major changes can be made."

"Only general experiments can be carried out. High-energy experiments must be carried out in the high-energy laboratory in the experimental area."

"It can also spawn a team of shadow ant servants as your own exclusive servants."

After entering his new home, he took a walk around and stayed in the protection room, reading the protection manual first. As it concerns safety, things that need to be done must be done first, but many things need to be done slowly and cannot be done all at once.

"Shadow ant servants are indeed an option, otherwise I have to take care of many things myself."

"In theory, a wizard's best assistant is a familiar. Contracting a familiar requires a price. The familiar will share the wizard's power and permanently occupy a portion of the wizard's mental power, about 10 scales. It also needs to be granted mental power from time to time."

These were just thoughts. He had just become a wizard and did not have the resources to cultivate shadow ant servants, nor did he have the extra energy to raise a magical pet.

Even for the protection of his residence, he simply drew down basic energy. This way, he was using the academy's protective power and did not require him to expend any extra resources of his own, which would otherwise cost him a considerable amount of money every month.

His idea is to not move at all, but if he does move, he will try his best to adjust it. This is the current arrangement.

In this twin tower, generally speaking, only the living room is open to outsiders, while other areas are for internal use.

Then, Ivan came to the meditation room, took out a black insect shell and started reading.

The Blackbeard music was recorded in this palm-sized insect armor. He probed his spiritual power into it and came into contact with the entire meditation method. There were three levels in total. The first level was the basics, which Randall had taught him before.

The second layer, named 'Breath of Flowers', has the characteristic of being able to easily transform spiritual power into a flower-like toxin. This toxin is a toxin to other creatures, but to some insects, it is a comfortable breath that warms the body.

"It's really strange. They are simply training wizards to be tools for raising insects."

After reading this, Ivan immediately thought of what Vice President Lydia said.

Randall also said that the essence of meditation is to help wizards get closer to powerful creatures, and the ultimate goal is to gain the same power as powerful creatures.

Therefore, the sources of meditation are varied and it is normal to have some minor flaws, as long as you can ensure that you can get closer to powerful creatures in your own way.

"Meditation methods are mostly the same. Others won't pass on their improved methods to me. I'll just take it one step at a time." He sighed a few times and continued reading.

The Breath of Flowers section contains 30 meditation runes. Those who have practiced meditation runes know that they are mostly used to stabilize and restore the mental power that has been controlled, and the training speed is far slower than that of potions.

It also includes two supporting spells, one is the 'Flower and Tree Shield' that he has already mastered, and the other is the 'Insect Silence'. Randall derived the Insect Concealment Spell from the Insect Silence Spell, which allows him to hide his own breath like an insect.

He has already mastered the zero-level insect concealment technique, so it will not be difficult for him to further learn the first-level insect silence technique.

It is worth mentioning that the Blackbeard Crown created by Randall can assist in the use of these two first-level spells. It has to be said that it is a very powerful innovation.

The third level of Blackbeard's music, called 'Candle Fire', was changed to focus on fire element particles, which matched his innate attributes. The third level also had matching spells, but they would not be used for a long time.

"The difference between first-level wizards is so huge. The highest mental power can reach 80 scales, which is completely different from when they first became wizards."

The new crystal ball given by the academy contained some common sense about wizards. Only after receiving it did he know the difference in strength between first-level wizards.

It also records that during the period when one first becomes a formal wizard, due to the substantial increase in mental power, there is a burnout period which lasts from half a year to a year depending on individual circumstances, and it is inconvenient to enhance mental strength during this period.

"It's okay to take a break for a year or two."

Ivan didn't think anything of it, he just had a lot of things to sort out.

After becoming a wizard, he can bring non-apprentice relatives with him, provided that the relatives cannot move around the academy.

In fact, this is not a wise thing to do. Wizards emit a special power radiation every moment, which will seriously affect the health of ordinary people. If you live too close to a wizard, even taking purification potions will be ineffective.

Although wizards are still human, they have entered a higher level of life.

Over the next few days, he studied several new spells while entertaining the few people who came to visit him.

The next day, Came came to the new residence. "Ivan, congratulations, can I still call you that?"

"Of course there is no problem. I said, we are friends."

"That's good, but I will definitely be careful outside, so as not to damage your dignity and make people think that I don't know etiquette."

Came is still the same Came. Perhaps he has met many wizards and is not as reserved as other apprentices.

"By the way, do you know any news about Wayne?" Ivan asked casually.

"As for him, I don't know either. He hasn't shown up since he failed to become a wizard. I guess he's hiding and doesn't dare to see anyone. After all, it's too embarrassing for a fifth-level talent. If I were him, I wouldn't be ashamed to come out and see other people."

Cam shook his head. He was more concerned about this aspect, but he didn't know Wayne's whereabouts.

"maybe."

"You have become a wizard, so I can't fall too far behind. Ivan, I will catch up with you as soon as possible. Then we can travel to the Moon Clamp Peninsula together and visit all the places on the Moon Clamp Peninsula."

Before leaving, Cam half-jokingly expressed her determination.

He naturally knew that as friends, once the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, the friendship would be difficult to maintain.

On the third day, Augustus also came, bringing gifts.

"Wizard Ivan, Augustus is here to meet you."

Only a few days had passed and the other party had become a wizard. Augustus felt half regretful and half relieved.

I regret not being able to help Ivan when he became a wizard, missing a good opportunity. Now that he has become a wizard, I have lost the qualification to have an equal dialogue.

Fortunately, he made amends himself after the old stubborn man in the family behaved rudely, and coupled with the good cooperative relationship they had before, Ivan must have taken their previous relationship into consideration.

"How do you know I became a wizard?" Ivan asked curiously. Augustus found the dormitory area and contacted him again. It seemed that he knew that he had become a wizard, so he asked him to come here.

"Hehe, I happened to see the strange phenomenon created by the particles that day, and guessed it might be you, and I was right." Augustus explained with a smile.

"August, if necessary, I will seek your cooperation." Ivan knew why Augustus came.

"Don't worry, I will never let you suffer any loss." Augustus quickly assured.

Augustus knew that Ivan had just become a wizard and should be very busy, so after a while he said goodbye and left the Twin Towers.

In order to win over this wizard, Augustus sent a considerable gift, which was 20 medium-sized magic stones.

Except for a few people who happened to know about it, Ivan's becoming an official wizard did not cause much waves, and the hut in the Mona Ant Land remained as peaceful as ever.

Several days passed in a flash.

Lake Nichols, a combination of water and swamp, is not within the Ant-Man Tideland of the Mona Ant Lodge, nor is it within the administrative territory of any wizard academy.

In the distance, a red figure flew closer. The wild bird in the thatch looked up and saw that it was a bloody ferocious bird. It was so scared that it quickly hid in the dense thatch of the lake.

After the blood-red dove reached the edge of the lake, it slowly stopped and a young man in an apprentice's gray robe jumped off its back.

"This Toines is really cunning. He only mentioned Nichols Lake but didn't mention any specific location. The lake is so big. We can only wait for him to show up."

Ivan took out a glass test tube, took the bloody dove back in, and turned it into potion.

Puppet summoned creatures can not only be used for attack, but also for carrying people and sending messages. Their forms are not limited to bloody doves, but can also be swifts, galloping horses, wargs, giants, etc.

It was July 4th, and Ivan couldn't wait to come to the appointment with Toins. When he arrived, Toins showed no trace or news.

After waiting for most of the day, the sky gradually darkened, and there was still no one around.

"I won't not come."

Ivan's face also turned darker with the sky.

After a while, night fell completely and the hazy moonlight sprinkled on the earth.

Suddenly, he felt a warm touch on his arm. It was the mark of the demon's curse that was heating up. The power of the curse was transmitted to the mark. The expression on Ivan's face suddenly became solemn. He knew that the person he was waiting for had come.

The other party appeared from the center of the lake in front.

He looked at the slowly increasing curse power in the mark and wondered whether he should just slap the guy opposite him when they met later. The guy was really annoying.
