Chapter 164: Promotion to Official Wizard
Walking to the familiar laboratory and closing the heavy door, Adil casually looked around, and then sat down on the bed beside him.
"According to my orders, martial law has begun in the manor, and a special witch array has been arranged outside the laboratory, so that anyone who wants to enter will be discovered by me immediately. ”
Sitting on the huge wooden bed, Adil was calm in his heart: "I have done all the defensive measures that should be done, and the rest can only rely on myself." ”
Thinking of this, he took a box on the wooden table in his hand, and then opened it directly.
Contained in the wooden box was a turquoise potion.
The turquoise elixir is very crisp, and the liquid inside seems to have life, and it constantly emits slight pulsations in it, which looks very extraordinary.
This is the sap of the ancient thorn tree, which can play a good auxiliary role in the process of promoting to a full-fledged wizard, and is extremely valuable for third-class apprentices.
The bottle in Adier's hand still came from a gift from a teacher in the academy.
"Chips, what's the progress of the Twist Barrier?"
Sitting on the head of the bed, Adil asked the chip in his head.
After obtaining the appearance of this first-level spell from Edith, Adil ordered the chip to analyze and simulate the spell in order to make the spell as effective as possible.
After all, for wizards, spells solidified in the spiritual sea are too important, and if possible, of course, they must be optimized as much as possible.
"Improvement completed..." In an instant, the sound of chip machinery sounded again.
"Compared with the original version, the stability of the improved version has increased by 17.1%, and the power has increased by 67%..."
The sound of chips kept ringing in Adiel's mind.
"Let's get started!"
Feeling the flood of information coming to his mind, Adil took a deep breath, and determination appeared in his eyes.
"I've made the preparations, and the rest depends on my luck..."
Drinking the sap of the ancient thorn tree in his hand in one gulp, this thought flashed through Adier's mind, and then he closed his eyes directly and entered a deep meditation state.
After drinking the sap of the ancient thorn tree, a feeling as if it was burning on a fire appeared in Adiel's body, and a feeling of weakness that his life force had been extracted from him all emerged at this time.
"The activity of the main body begins to decrease... The mental ceiling starts to grow...
In his mind, the voice of the chip machine sounded again, but at this time, Adil had no idea for the time being.
A dazed feeling appeared in his body, and then a dim spiritual sea appeared in Adiel's consciousness, illuminated by an inexplicable force.
A large amount of spiritual power is like a surging sea, constantly churning there, like a tsunami, which is constantly raging in the spiritual sea.
Under the effect of the sap of the ancient thorn tree, Adil only felt that his spiritual power at this time was unprecedentedly abundant, as if it was not exhausted, and the spells that were used very reluctantly in the past could be used without pressure at this time.
The feeling of being freed was fascinating, but it also alarmed Adiel.
While at the Uraldo Academy, Adil relied on Edith's connections to consult many valuable materials in the academy's library, including the various problems that he had to face when becoming a full-fledged wizard.
His current situation, on the surface, seems to be a crazy increase in spiritual power, but in fact, it is the life force of the burning body in exchange, once it reaches a certain critical point and has not completed the promotion, this promotion will be a complete failure, and it is difficult to say whether there will be any sequelae left at that time, but these burned life force is really lost.
Even if Adil lives long enough to survive even if he fails to be promoted, it will also affect future promotions, making it less likely to be promoted to a full-fledged wizard.
All kinds of thoughts flashed in his heart, sensing the spiritual sea that was illuminated at this time, Adil endured the pain of his life force being burned, and tried to build a spell template that distorted the barrier in the spiritual sea.
This is also the most difficult level for a third-class apprentice trying to advance to a full-fledged wizard.
Spell templates, even the most basic, are difficult enough to trap countless people, and it will take the average apprentice months to go from learning to skillfully building. This is especially true of the first-level spell template, which is hundreds or thousands of times more complex than the basic template.
If the template for building a basic spell is to meditate an ant out of thin air in your mind, then the template for a first-level spell is to meditate on a human in your mind. Every vessel, every hair, every detail of the structure of the body must not be wrong, otherwise it will cause this spell to fail, and the complexity can be imagined.
It would be a huge challenge for any apprentice to construct a first-level spell template directly in the spiritual sea without having ever built a first-level spell template, not to mention that it must also be guaranteed a success, and the psychological pressure is even greater.
This is especially true for people like Adil who use modified spell templates.
Improved spells are powerful, but they are bound to be more complex, and in a way, they will only make hardening spells harder.
However, compared to others, Adil also has a great advantage.
The wizard himself is a high-powered computer, and the stronger the mental power, the stronger the wizard's computing ability. And in this regard, Adiel's spiritual strength also far exceeded the level of ordinary third-class apprentices when they were promoted.
Coupled with the existence of the chip, although Adil had not built this spell in his mind, he also tried many times through the simulation function of the chip.
These conditions combined, even though the difficulty of the improved warping barrier was greatly increased, Adil still had confidence in himself.
In my mind, the dim spiritual sea gradually lit up.
In the midst of the surging spiritual power like a tide, a little light is gradually brightening.
The light was initially extremely faint, as if it could go out at any moment. Then it became brighter and brighter, and the volume was also getting bigger and bigger, gradually rising in the vast spiritual sea, like a round of sun, illuminating the entire spiritual sea.
If you can observe carefully in the spiritual sea, you can find that inside this mass of light, there is a pure crystal, on which there are complex runes, which together form a complete structure.
And this whole crystal, which is the solidified spell template, is standing quietly above the spiritual sea at this time, releasing a faint brilliance.
The light was bright and transparent, but it had no real heat, and only appeared in the spiritual sea, which could only be observed by Adiel.
"It worked!!"
When the crystals in the spiritual sea were successfully ascended and condensed, feeling the changes coming from the spiritual sea, Adil was overjoyed.
In the vast spiritual sea, with the successful solidification of the spell template, the entire spiritual sea seemed to have undergone some unknown changes, causing the originally boiling sea water to begin to calm down.
And the changes in the spiritual sea will also extend to the body, so that the body of the third-class apprentice will slowly transform and complete the change in the life level.
At this point, though, it's not over yet.
After the spell template is solidified, it is still very fragile at this time, and if an accident occurs at this time, the crystals produced by the spell template after curing may collapse at any time.
Therefore, at this stage, Adil must maintain the spell crystals in the spiritual sea as much as possible, and not only can not use spells before this, but also must concentrate as much as possible, otherwise it may lead to the failure of this process.
And the defensive measures that Adil did before were actually prepared for this time.
···················
Little by little, time passed.
When the spell crystals in the spiritual sea were roughly stabilized, Adil opened his eyes again.
If you look closely into his eyes, you can see a faint light in his eyes, and if someone looks directly, you will immediately feel a strong tingling sensation.
This is a phenomenon caused by the uncontrollable increase in mental power, and it is also a symptom that is often seen by newly promoted full-fledged wizards.
"Finally... It worked!"
Sitting at the head of the bed, quietly opening his eyes, feeling the sunlight penetrating through the window, and the feeling of weakness coming from his body, Adil was a little excited in his heart, and there was a little more joy in his eyes: "Official wizard!"
At this time, he felt that his state was very bad, because of the use of thorn sap to impact the official wizard, a large part of his vitality was burned, and at this moment, the whole person was in extremely poor condition, and he looked very weak.
But under this extreme sense of weakness, he could sense the strength in his body, which was several times stronger than before he was promoted.
"Name: Adil Fakus. Power: 13.5 (15.7). Dexterity: 13.9 (16.1). Constitution: 14.1 (16.5). Spirit: 16.8. ”
In front of him, the familiar attribute panel reappeared, giving Adil a full understanding of his body.
In addition to the one-time increase in mental power by 4 points, the rest of the physical attributes have also increased greatly, but they are still in a weak state for the time being.
And as time passes, during the period when he has just been promoted to a full-fledged wizard, Adiel's physical attributes will increase greatly, and it will not stop until the end of this transformation period.
Theoretically, this period of transformation is also the weakest time for a formal wizard, not only can he not use too many spells, but his physical fitness has not yet reached the level of a formal wizard, although he is far stronger than a third-class apprentice in terms of combat effectiveness, but he is not the opponent of other formal wizards.
Of course, for Adiel, this may not be applicable.
With his strong physical fitness, even if he has just been promoted at this time, he may be able to directly confront the official wizard.
