Chapter 9 Libraries

Being promoted to a full-fledged apprentice was a great relief to Merlin, at least to solve the looming problem. But she knew that if she offended that Feller, although the other party could not deal with her openly or in the academy, his family was intertwined and had rich connections, and she had to improve her strength as soon as possible.

Under normal conditions, a wizard apprentice will have more room for promotion under the direct guidance of a mentor...... Of course, tutors are not pro bono services, but there are people to guide them in learning, which is more systematic, and it is still quite attractive. But after Merlene was excited, she had to overturn this idea.

Feller's family is very powerful, and he has a lot of power in the Water Cloud Academy, and even the dean has to respect their family's opinion. Of course, with the identity of those big people, they don't bother to deal with Merlin, but if a family member has a dispute with Merlin...... Thinking on their knees, and knowing what the result would be, I am afraid that they would be more happy to be the testing stone of Merlene for the children of the family.

Merlin wouldn't wait there to be slaughtered, the academy had strict controls over informal apprentices, but it was much easier than formal apprentices, and she was ready to wait until she had a certain strength before leaving the academy and avoiding the Feller family.

But it was still too far away to think about it, and what she wanted to know most was what those will runes were, but all the apprentices were silent about their meditation process, and Merlin didn't dare to talk about it with others, so she had to find the answer herself.

With this decision, Merlin felt really relaxed, and she was ready to sleep well, no matter what...... I'll do it tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Mei Lin went to the school office of the college to change her identity and waist card...... A student who took nearly four years to be promoted to a first-level apprentice really doesn't deserve much attention, the academy has long since remembered that this apprentice who used to be a fifth-level qualification, and after a few words of encouragement, he sent her out. Interestingly, in the corridor, Merlin happened to meet the old guy who was in charge of distributing benefits, and after sensing the fluctuations in her body, the old guy's face was as ugly as eating the reincarnation of grains.

Merlin didn't have the heart to compete with an old guy who was destined to have no future...... Think about it carefully, the other party is also a hateful and pitiful person, he is destined to have no future, but he has an unlimited future, and it is boring to deal with such an old man.

As a first-class wizard's apprentice, Merlin can now borrow more advanced books, but most of them still have to be paid for, something she never had the luxury of.

There are three elements of the strength of an academy, one is a strong wizard, the second is a talented student, and the third is a rich cultural heritage.

The library of the Shuiyunjian Academy is built on the mountain, and it is magnificent, such an important place is not only in the center of the academy, but also has many prohibitions. Especially what happened on the Turbulent River some time ago, although the academy claims to have lifted the alert, the library is the top priority, it is still three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and there are all kinds of puppets patrolling.

Puppets are a branch of alchemy, and the Shuiyunjian Academy is not very good at refining puppets, this kind of patrol puppet that wins by quantity, the level is not very high, that is, the strength of the first and second level apprentices.

However, don't ignore the power that gives rise to the golems, on the one hand, they are fierce and powerful, and on the other hand, magic attacks are slow to damage them, and they are extremely loyal and will never betray. And each golem often has a special focus, which is definitely not an easy task if someone wants to operate covertly within their patrol range.

Roar!

A howl suddenly sounded in front of Merlin, only a gust of wind was heard, and from the shadow of a nearby building, a wolf-shaped puppet the size of a calf jumped out, staring at Merlin with gloomy eyes, and a chill rose from her heart.

Although the puppet was not a real living creature, its momentum was incomparable to that of ordinary wild wolves, and a terrifying, absolutely powerful aura swept across it, making people shudder.

A berserk wolf puppet, equivalent to the strength of a third-level apprentice!

The level of the puppet is the same as that of the wizard, and it is said that the powerful can even refine alchemy puppets with a certain amount of wisdom.

Of course, under normal circumstances, it is still the wizard of the same level who is more powerful. But against low-level wizards, or if you use the crowd to bully the widow, the result is not easy to say.

The berserk wolf puppet was more than two meters long, and it exuded an amazing momentum, but Mei Lin didn't care, it was just a puppet without wisdom, not to mention that although he was not valued in the academy, he was a student of the Shuiyun Academy after all.

Each student has an identity token, and these puppets will distinguish between their own and outsiders through a wonderful induction magic array...... Of course, it is also possible for the student's identity token to be seized by the enemy, but generally speaking, the death of the student, or the damage of the identity token, will cause the token to become invalid.

The berserk wolf puppet came to Merlin's front and let out a low roar, Merlin stood there calmly, the wolf puppet glanced at her a few times, and gradually, the hostility subsided, apparently recognizing her identity, and stepped aside, and rubbed her head.

Ascending the steps, Merlin came to the gate, shook her identity token at the wizard apprentice guarding the door, and walked in

There wasn't a lot of space inside the door, and an old wizard with white hair sat behind a desk, next to the staircase leading upstairs, and behind him was a tightly closed door.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the old wizard who was reading a book raised his head and looked weak: "This fluctuation ...... A newly promoted First Class Apprentice. Little girl, congratulations on taking another step forward on your quest for truth. According to the rules, you can choose a free paid subject. So, do you choose now? or later. ”

In the academy, there are not many free subjects, but there are many paid subjects, and the cheapest ones have to pay at least ten magic stones, so the use of this benefit must be very cautious.

However, Merlin had already thought about it when she came, so she immediately gave the answer: "My lord, I want to choose 'basic pharmacy'. ”

Even if it was basic pharmacy, she could earn magic stones by refining potions for her own cultivation. Especially after having that mysterious nebula, she became even more determined in her choice.

"Yes. ”

The old wizard looked at her inquiringly for a long time before nodding: "Although this is your choice, it is necessary for me to remind you. Young people, don't talk about the benefits of becoming a pharmacist, but if you want to become a real pharmacist, you often need a lot of resources, are you mentally prepared for this? “

"I'm ready. Merlin nodded firmly.
