[Brothers, it's starting to pick up the pace!] 】

Spring goes to autumn, the years alternate, and four years have passed in a blink of an eye.

The mountain behind the Willin Academy of Magic in Finlay City.

A hole of spring water continued to gush out of the sweet spring, bubbling and bubbling around, surrounded by mist, and after a flurry, the flowing spring water converged at the circular waterhole not far below, next to the waterhole, Luo Lan, who was dressed in a blue warrior's suit, was staring intently at a stone.

This is a boulder up to three meters high, weighing nearly 10,000 catties, the whole body is smooth, blue-gray, it is a relatively rare stone in the back mountain - blue jade.

Luo Lan stroked the surface of the boulder with his hand, and looked at the boulder with a unique gaze, with a hint of attachment and melancholy.

Boom –

A teardrop slipped from the corner of Luo Lan's eye.

At this moment, Luo Lan moved.

Slowly pulling out the flat knife inserted in his waist, a cold light flashed on the shiny blade, and an afterimage instantly swung in Luo Lan's hand, slashing towards the green jade stone.

Under his knife, the hard blue jade stone is like tofu, thrown out piece by piece, and the whole movement is like flowing water, like a perfect artistic performance, which makes people feel pleasing to the eye, and there is no patience at all.

Not far away, there was a sound of footsteps, and people kept walking towards the waterhole.

Luo Lan didn't notice it at all, at this time, his whole body and mind were completely immersed in carving, and his spirit was drawn by the flat knife in his hand, and his gaze was caused by the light of the knife.

The person who came stood still not far behind Luo Lan, did not say anything to disturb, but quietly watched Luo Lan carving.

There are only three sounds left around, the sound of the spring flowing, the sound of the breeze blowing, the sound of the flat knife cutting, the three sounds are fused back and forth, and they are quietly played in this remote and uninhabited deep pool.

The boulder with a height of more than three meters is washed away little by little under the knife of the young man, as if it is not carving, but restoring the original appearance of the stone carving.

an hour

Two hours

……

After more than four hours of carving without interruption, a tall statue appeared perfectly in front of Luo Lan.

Luo Lan gently finished the last stroke, put away the flat knife, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his work with a nostalgic face, his eyes were filled with reverence and self-blame, and the corners of his eyes contained tears.

It was the image of a man, with bare arms, muscles pricked in his arms, a pair of serious eyes scanning ahead, and a smile on his lips.

Looking at the statue, Luo Lan seemed to be returning to Osan Mountain.

Under the towering poplar tree, Hillman, who had a resolute face, scanned each child's cultivation with a serious gaze, and when he saw the well-trained child, the corners of his mouth unconsciously hooked up a smug smile.

"Father!"

After watching quietly for a long time, Luo Lan reached out and stroked the face of the stone carving, his voice trembled slightly, and he muttered softly.

"Luo Lan, God of Light bless, your father will be fine soon." A voice came from behind Luo Lan, interrupting Luo Lan.

Luo Lan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and turned to look at the person.

It was a slightly obese middle-aged man, dressed in a black magic robe, with a gray beard, and a pair of eyes that were somewhat bloated, but revealing a terrifying essence.

"Dean Keller, why are you here?"

"I heard that you were carving here, so I came to see it, and I didn't bother you." Marquis Keller said with a smile on his face.

"Nothing to bother!" Luo Lan waved his hand again and again.

Speaking of which, the procedures for entering the Willin Academy of Magic were handled by Marquis Kaile with the help of him.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, Luo Lan, you are about to become a master of stone carving." Kaile looked at the statue with a gleam in his eyes.

The perfect and smooth lines of the stone carving, although not finely carved, are rough with a hint of masculine beauty, which complements the image of the figures, and is really a rare boutique; And what is even more rare is this carving technique, with only a flat knife to complete the process of stone carving, it is simply unique, and another new style of stone carving and carving.

"Lord Kaile smiled, where can I be called a master of stone carving!" Luo Lan waved his hand humbly.

His own level Luo Lan is very clear, there is still a gap from the master of stone carving, and the reason why Kaile can be so praised is completely because of the technique.

Inheriting the Drinkwater's flat knife flow carving technique, the stone carving he carved is very different from the traditional stone carving in style, for people with aesthetic fatigue, a new carving style will undoubtedly make people shine and add a lot of color to the stone carving.

"Luo Lan, do you want me to help you send the stone carving to the Pruss Guild Hall, with your unique carving style, you will definitely be liked by many people." Marquis Keller suggested.

"Thank you, Dean Kaile, I don't plan to send the stone sculptures to the Pruss Hall for exhibition for the time being."

This is not modest, it is really that Drinkwater's requirements are too high, and the works that Luo Lan usually practices cannot reach the height of today's stone carving, and the stone carving carved today means a lot to him, and he will not take it out for auction.

"Luo Lan, you really don't think about it anymore." Kaile asked again with some unwillingness.

"I really don't need it, carving is just my hobby, and I don't plan to spend too much energy on stone carving in the future." Luo Lan explained.

"Looks like a master stone carver is leaving us!"

The Marquis of Kaile had a regretful look on his face, but then he laughed.

"But the God of Light, you have given us another magic genius, Luo Lan, you are now a fifth-level magician and have reached the qualifications for graduation, do you think about the next step?"

Marquis Kaile put away the smile he had just put away, with a hint of solemnity on his face.

The stone carving is just a prelude, this is the real purpose of Kaile's visit.

Compared with the graduation requirements of the Ernst Academy of Magic and Wizardry, the Willin Academy of Magic is undoubtedly much more relaxed, as long as the students become a fifth-level magician in fifty years, they can successfully graduate, and after graduation, they can also give priority to join the Finlay Kingdom and get a good job.

Of course, if you don't plan to graduate, you can continue to study in the academy, as long as you become a level 6 magician within sixty years, you can apply to join the Finlay Kingdom and get a knighthood.

This is the most convenient way for ordinary commoners to become nobles, but for most students, this path to progress is not realistic.

All the students who are admitted to the Willin Academy of Magic are not among the top talents, and they cannot be compared with the students of the Ernst Academy of Magic and Wizardry, and it is difficult for most people to become a sixth-level magician in sixty years like the students of the Ernst Academy of Magic.

So instead of wasting time and waiting until sixty years to graduate and start over, it is better to join the kingdom of Finlay early and get a decent and easy job, and if you are lucky, you may be able to get a knighthood.

As a member of the Finlay royal family, Kaile naturally hopes that Luo Lan can join the Finlay Kingdom as soon as possible, not to mention his terrifying magical cultivation talent, the relationship between Luo Lan and Cardinal Lampson alone is worth the effort of the Finlay royal family.

"Dean Kaile, I plan to continue my studies, and I have no plans to join the kingdom for the time being." Luo Lan thought about it seriously for a moment and said sincerely.

Fifth-level magicians are still a little too low, at least they have to become a sixth-level magician, or even a seventh-level magician to be eligible for self-preservation, Luo Lan doesn't want to waste too much time on irrelevant things now.

"Luo Lan, don't be too busy refusing yet. This royal family's invitation is very sincere, as long as you are willing to join the Finlay Kingdom, His Majesty Clyde promises to make you a viscount immediately, except for the title of court magician, you don't need to undertake any work in the court, and it will not affect your cultivation. Marquis Keller explained.

"Dean Kaile, I'm going to go back and discuss this matter with Grandpa Lampson!" Luo Lan thought for a moment and said.

"This is a big deal, and it really needs to be seriously considered, regardless of the outcome of your consultation with Archbishop Lampson, Luo Lan asks you to remember that the doors of the royal family of Finlay are always open for you." Marquis Kaile smiled reluctantly and said.

He only knew that Luo Lan and Lampson were close, Luo Lan was sent by Lampson when he first came to Willin Academy of Magic, but he didn't expect the relationship between the two to be so close, and even how to choose the future path of such a major life event, Luo Lan would discuss with Lampson.

It seems that the relationship between Rolan and Archbishop Lampson needs to be reassessed. Kaile thought to himself, in addition, Merritt's idiot must also be cleaned up, if it weren't for his bastard son Battle who injured Luo Lan's father, Luo Lan would not be so cold to the royal family's solicitation.

"A viscount!"

After Kaile walked away, a chuckle flashed in Luo Lan's eyes.

Ordinary students who become fifth-level magicians and graduate will be awarded a lord at most, which is the so-called honorary noble, and only sixth-level magicians can be awarded a baron.

Obviously, because of Lampson, the royal family of Finlay has increased the bounty for themselves.

Many people struggle for goals that they can't achieve in their lifetimes, but they are within reach for him, but it's a pity -

Luo Lan didn't put a viscount in his eyes, what he needed was strength, only if he was strong enough, he could protect his relatives, and things like money and status would come one after another.

Luo Lan looked at his system screen, and Luo Lan frowned.

Luo Lan: Terran Constitution: 6 Soul: 6 Agility: 7 Fighting Spirit: 7 Mana: 6 Evolution: 9999/10000 Status: Health. System Status: Intermediate Function: Can detect and absorb matter containing evolutionary factors within 10 meters of the subject.

After practicing the flat knife flow carving taught by Drinkwater, his spiritual power has increased by leaps and bounds, and not long ago, his spiritual power successfully crossed the threshold of a sixth-level magician.

Exercising to reach the sixth-level warrior is the limit of ordinary people, unless a person with a special bloodline can make a breakthrough, for example, a dragon-blooded warrior can become a seventh-level warrior with his physical body alone, and an undead warrior can fight against an eighth-level warrior with his physical body alone.

It has been more than half a year since Luo Lan's physique reached the peak of a sixth-level warrior, and he is just one evolution point away from stepping into the seventh level of his physique, which is comparable to the level of a seventh-level demonic beast.

But this is like an invisible moat blocking his way forward, because his physique is stuck at the peak of the sixth-level warrior, and the corresponding fighting spirit is stuck at the peak of the seventh-level warrior, and he can't advance an inch.

The Qi Accumulation Form no longer had the slightest effect on Luo Lan, and even the substances containing the intermediate evolution factors that he had spent a lot of money on would not allow him to take this step.

"Grandpa Delin is a Sanctuary Magister, and he may know some methods about physical strengthening." Luo Lan thought so.

"Counting it, I haven't seen Lin Lei and Yale for many days."
