Chapter 2: The Wand of the Crescent

In the Ferroman Continent, how can we effectively improve combat effectiveness in a short period of time?

There are nothing more than three options.

Equipment, flasks, magic buffs.

The apprentice apartment is inhabited by magic apprentices, and the magic cultivation is very low, so there is definitely no need to think about the magic gain.

As for the potion, Link didn't have much of an idea, because there was no alchemy room in the apprentice's apartment, and the alchemy room of the Academy of Magic was more than fifty meters away from the apprentice's apartment, and the darkness outside the apartment was already full of assassins, and this 50 meters was an insurmountable chasm.

Only one last item remains, and that is equipment.

What is the most important piece of equipment for a mage? Magic Energy Focuser!

In layman's terms, it's a wand.

A magician can cast spells without a wand, but the body of a magician is usually very fragile, and it is impossible for the magic energy in the body to be focused with high intensity, and the power is very weak.

This requires the help of external objects, that is, the role of the wand.

For example, if a magic apprentice releases a level 0 fireball without using a wand, the power of this fireball is equivalent to a cannonball, but if he takes the most ordinary wand, he can escalate this cannonball to a large cannonball, or even a detonator.

There is no change in the magic energy used throughout the process, and the secret is that the magic energy is compressed by the wand.

If magic is a bullet, then a wand is a gun that fires bullets. The quality of the gun directly determines the power of the bullet.

Wands are very expensive, the cheapest one costs 100 gold coins, Link is from a small aristocratic background, and he is still the youngest son in the family, and his magic talent is weak, of course, he can't have such a luxury as a wand.

He didn't, but the others in the apartment did.

There are more than 50 magic apprentices living in this apprentice apartment, many of them are local tyrants, and there are at least twenty wands, the best of which is in the hands of a magic apprentice named Grant on the second floor.

Link knew that the wand was called the Crescent Moon, the proud work of the wand master Henilla in his early years, worth more than 1,000 gold coins, and was a coming-of-age gift from Grant's earl father to his beloved little son.

It is said that Grant cherishes the crescent moon so much that he sleeps in his arms.

This crescent wand is Link's target.

When you think of it, you act!

Link took the clothes next to the bed and prepared to put them on, but the movement quickly stopped, this is an apprentice robe issued by the Academy of Magic, the style and material are very unique, so that people can know at a glance that he is an apprentice of the Academy of Magic, of course this is fine on weekdays, but tonight, the more eye-catching his appearance, the faster he will die.

Throwing down the apprentice's robe, Link opened the bedside table and found a gray cloth robe to wear, which was his own clothes, without any features on it, and after putting it on, with his popular appearance, he was absolutely unfamiliar when he walked down the street.

Dressed and booted, Link was out the door.

Magicians favored round towers, and the apprentice's apartments were in the shape of a round tower, with five floors, each with 10 rooms, arranged in a circle.

Link walked out of the room to a rotunda about ten meters in diameter, and there was a magical light floating above the hall, the light was very dim, it was already 9:45, and it was time to rest for magicians who were generally used to going to bed early.

Walking up the stone spiral staircase to the second floor and finding Grant's room, Link knocked lightly on the door.

There was no response, and Grant was supposed to be asleep.

After a second of hesitation, Link gave up knocking on the door, doing so might wake up the apprentice in a nearby room, which was not a good thing for what he was about to do.

Gently reaching out and tapping on the door lock, Link unleashed the mage's hand.

Mage's Hand

Mana Cost: 0.2

No rank tricks

Purpose: No touching moving objects (mage universal outfit * forcing means)

The Mage's Hand is the only magic that Young Link can use, and it is extremely simple, requiring only 0.2 magic points.

The door lock of the apprentice's apartment was made of ordinary lock cylinders, which could easily be opened by the hand of a mage, and after five seconds, the door opened with a soft 'click'.

Link gently pushed open the door, and the wooden door made a soft 'squeak' sound, which was very exciting for first-time thieves, but Link was not, he could become the first law god in the virtual reality, and his heart was as solid as a rock.

Pushing open the door without changing his face, he walked in, and closed the door gently, and the whole process was naturally like entering his own room.

The room was very dim, and the layout was similar to Link's room, but the furniture was much more luxurious and refined than Link's, and the college did not provide furniture, which was paid for by Grant himself.

Grant was lying on the bed, he slept very deeply, and the rumor was true, this guy cherished his wand so much that he held it in his arms even when he was sleeping, and held it tightly with his hands.

If you are a real thief, stealing a wand can be tricky in this case, but Link is not, he knows that the impending massacre of the city will wipe out everything that happened in the city, and no one will hold anyone accountable for what happened in the city.

Now, he can do whatever he wants.

Walking to Grant's bedside, he reached out and slapped Grant's handsome face fiercely, with a crisp sound, and the slap was heavy.

This is for the old boy Link, this Grant usually bullied the previous Link, and in a prank, he even caused Link to break his arm.

Grant's father was a duke, so the boy chose to keep his temper, but Link wouldn't.

The slap woke Grant up, and he was startled, and sat up from the bed suddenly, covering his face and looking left and right, shouting, "What's the matter?" What's going on? ”

His eyes weren't fully clear, and he couldn't figure out what was going on for a while.

With this movement, he naturally relaxed the wand in his hand.

Link snatched the well-made wand into his hand, then raised his hand and slashed Grant on the neck with a knife before he could react.

Grant rolled his eyes and fell back onto the bed, fainting.

From beginning to end, he didn't figure out what was going on.

Wand in hand!

Link looked at the wand in his hand, it was forty centimeters long, and from head to tail it was clasped with ring-like magic guide gold, and the fine magic runes were carved from the end of the wand to the head of the wand, and finally the shape of a crescent moon was outlined on the head of the wand.

As he observed, a virtual frame appeared next to the wand, with glowing fonts flashing through the frame.

Crescent Moon Wand

Quality: Excellent

Effect: Gain +20% attack magic power.

(Note: The Earl of Gridan gave his second son Grant's coming-of-age gift)

Link smiled: "The Lord of Radiance's game system is quite good, but it looks much more intuitive when you do it like this." ”

Got the crescent wand, took out his pocket watch and looked at it, at 9:50, there were still forty minutes left, there was plenty of time, he walked to the door, opened the door, closed the door, and when he got to the door, the crescent wand was locked on the door, and the mage's hand activated.

With a 'click' sound, with the blessing of the wand, even the power of the mage's hand was greatly increased, and the lock cylinder of the door lock was completely destroyed in an instant, and the door could not be opened inside and outside the room, even if Grant came to his senses halfway, he would have to spend some effort to get out.

In just forty minutes, no one in this magic academy will have the time to meddle with other people's affairs.

The wand is here, and this is the first step.

Link continued to walk towards the first floor of the apprentice's apartment, where there were several display cases, one of which contained a magic bracelet called the 'Guardian Bracelet', which was a low-level magic item that the caster could use to activate a level 2 defensive magic 'Guardian Enchantment'.

This bracelet Link is bound to get.

In this era, because of the concentration of magic energy in the world, the number of strong people is far less than that of later generations, and the level 2 defensive magic is already quite powerful, and if it is used well, it can save his life.

Of course, as this world war continues, all kinds of powerful forces continue to break out, a large number of spatial rifts have appeared in the Feroman Continent, and the concentration of magic energy in the world will rise again and again, and there will be more and more strong people, and at that time, level 2 magic will be nothing.

The problem now is that there is still a full-fledged magician living on the first floor, and she is Mrs. Fairfax, a kind and kind old woman, a level 1 magician, and the dormitory keeper of the apprenticeship's apartment.

This old woman slept lightly, and she would wake up at the slightest disturbance, and with her, it would be much more difficult to steal the bracelet, but Link already had a plan in mind.

He walked towards the staircase, but after a few steps, Link's footsteps suddenly stopped at the door of a room, and an uncontrollable wave of reluctance welled up in his heart.

Link was stunned, and memories belonging to the teenager emerged.

The apprentice apartment is co-ed, and the magic apprentice who lives in this room is called Celine, the daughter of a commoner, who studied for free in the magic academy with her extremely outstanding magical talent, she has been enrolled for three months, has mastered three level 0 magic, and her future achievements are limitless.

In memory, Celine is a very beautiful girl, naturally beautiful, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the first beauty in the academy, but this is not the key, the key is that this Celine used to help Link a lot, just after his arm was broken by Grant, Celine took care of him for more than a month, on the grounds that she was also responsible for the accident.

Link's personality is low and introverted, and he has basically no friends in the academy, and just in this month, he developed an inseparable affection for Celine.

'Heh~ boy, is she your first love? Link smiled softly in his heart, he wasn't going to meddle with things, he was already lucky to be able to escape by himself, and bringing another person would definitely increase the danger greatly.

He turned away, taking one, two, three, and by the fourth step, Link stopped again.

He found that the reluctance in his heart had become extremely strong, to the point where he could not ignore it.

"Alright, alright, since it's your last wish, I'll help you fulfill it. After all, I still take your body. ”

It's strange to say, but when Link made a promise, this emotion suddenly dissipated, and his whole body became relieved, as if a shackle had been removed from his heart.

Link had a feeling that the original owner of this body had completely disappeared.

"It's really infatuated." Link shook his head slightly.

He'll take this Celine away, not now, of course, he'll have to steal it now, it's to take the Guardian Bracelet.
