Chapter 63: The City Where Tree Spirits Never Sleep

For more than two years, I was unknowingly eaten by a dog again.

Two years, more than 700 natural days, this time may only be a preparatory stage for a sorcerer, it may be a refinement of soul arts, and it may just be to improve the thousands of soul energy scales.

But for newcomers who are still in their apprenticeships, a lot can happen.

Helo held a borrowed book in his left hand and tapped his fingers on the broken skull with his right hand.

For more than two years, the soul art structure, which was originally just taking shape, has allowed him to improve a lot.

Perceptual Soul Technique, Escape Soul Technique, Defensive Soul Technique, Zero Zero always learns from public courses, [Library] and Mentors and is fully proficient.

'Ding-dong! ’

A notice came from the Mystical Codex.

Helo exited the chat box with the old man, returned to the main page, and clicked on Notifications.

For two years, he focused part of his energy on optimizing the [Tesla Grenade], loading part of the formula from the distortion characteristics on top of the original Soul formula.

Combined with arc paralysis, it can not only limit the movement of the target's body, but also confuse its consciousness with a small chance.

Of course, the supply price to the old man is also a little higher.

In two years, the quality of the products also made his Lockheed label famous in the apprenticeship area.

Although it was a little bitter, and he had to hand over nearly thirty grenades to the old man every week, the benefits were also obvious.

He didn't have to compete with other apprentices for those low-bounty assignments.

Don't worry about money!

Or rather, don't worry about a little money!

For the three-year assessment, Helo invested all his money in soul arts, and before he researched the automated assembly line, he simply didn't have the energy to study intermediate or even high-level engineering.

After all, he has to ensure a stable income during this period of time, and if he shifts his energy to this convenience, the production capacity of [Tesla grenade] will be greatly reduced, which will affect his follow-up plan.

What's more, his current R&D capabilities are too weak, and he has no help at all except himself.

Not even the system can help with this.

In the past two years, I have participated in the experiment of 'Soul Circuit Interference and Distortion Eye' with my mentor, mastered the basic methods and use of instruments for some experiments, and also had some eyebrows for the automated assembly line.

"When I come back from the assessment, I should be able to start setting up a small-scale assembly line."

While thinking about the follow-up development, Helo was given a notification from the Secret Archive of the browser.

This notice is a mandatory order issued by the Tower to all apprentice sorcerers.

The time for the three-year assessment has arrived.

This is important for sorcerers at every stage of their apprenticeship, as it relates to the free resources they can get for the next three years.

And from the mentor, Helo also learned.

The re-division of resources is not as simple as how many soul coins are issued each month, but also involves the reading time of the hidden floors of the [Library], the guidance of high-level magicians, the right to use the hidden buildings of the tower, and even the rewards of pseudo-Horcruxes, soul armed embryos, and so on.

In general, the allocation of resources will be completely different for apprentices with different levels of completion.

There is a world of difference between 100% achievement and 98% performance.

For Civilian Apprentices, this is the time to cross tiers and increase the chance of breaking through to a Rank Sorcererer.

【Assessment】

[Three-year apprentice, Helo, you must confirm your participation in the initial assessment to the tower within three calendar days, and the tower will randomly distribute the assessment tasks for you and randomly assign team members!] 】

【Confirmation of participation】

"Three years, it's really fast, let me see who's in the group with me."

Without hesitation, Helo clicked OK to participate.

A streamer flashed by, and while the tower received feedback from Helo's Secret Archive, he also quickly assigned the assessment task.

When Herlo clicked on the message, a completely different message box appeared in front of him.

The simulated parchment slowly unfolded, and the dark lines depicted on it made Hero feel a little evil.

"It's a cleaning mission."

There are many types of assessment tasks in the tower, just like the bounty tasks hanging on the walls of the hall, but after all, they are mainly assessments, and even if they are randomly assigned, they will still take into account the direction of the apprentices themselves.

For example, the sorcerers of [Crimson Tower] will mostly arrange to go to various forbidden places with high casualty rates and arrange healing assessments.

This made Helo very envious, at least he didn't have to worry about his life.

After all, he vividly remembers the scene of the four apprentices led by Mena all dying in the deep sea.

When you're away, a sorcerer with supernatural powers will unblock the tower's confines.

In the past few years, I have continued to learn and constantly improve my soul energy scale, and I have not had the slightest time to rest, for fear of becoming the garbage of the tower, being thrown into the trash can, and being picked up and used at will, until there is no use value.

This oppressive feeling, after walking out of the tower, needs to be doubled and indulged to be able to alleviate it.

This also leads to the multiplication of good and evil in the human nature of the magician who walks outside, with the good people being more kind and the evil people being more vicious.

Everyone took off the mask of hypocrisy and put on the mask of truth that concealed their face.

【Tree Spirit Never Sleeps】

In that muddy swampy land, there is a magnificent city that never sleeps, where the dryads revelry at night, they multiply, migrate, and provoke wars between the swamp races.

They share in the bounty of the Mother Swamp and want to establish a kingdom of the Dryads on her corpses.

Assessment Objectives:

1. Sweep 10 Adult Tree Spirits to get the full heart (0/10)

2. Pacify Mother Swamp and calm the chaos in the Swampland.

3. Plunder the foundations of the city that never sleeps.

Warning:

Dryads are giant humanoid plants that juvenile dryads are non-conscious and unable to move, but will unconsciously attack and devour all creatures that exude soul breath.

Adult Treants are over two hundred years old, and the outer part of their bodies has formed solid bark, and it is difficult for the power of apprenticeship soul magic to damage the inner core structure, and they are generally active at night, and their numbers are large and scattered throughout the swamps, so far there is no complete statistics.

Assigned party members:

Teaching Assistants: There are no teaching assistants assigned at this time

Apprentices: Bert, Traton, Barbling, Dana

……

After reading the assessment task, Helo's face was a little ugly, is Gao Ta crazy?

This is only the assessment task for the first apprentice.

He knew about the existence of the tree spirit, and the materials in the mentor's laboratory had a tree heart, and a tree heart alone was bigger than his entire person.

Although it was taken from an eight-hundred-year-old dryad, and the quest only stated the requirements for an adult dryad, Helo also felt a headache.

Not to mention hunting, even if it is placed there, it will take half a day to let him dissect the shell of the dryad.

And on this basis, it is necessary to go deep into the swamp and drive away the tree spirits that plundered the gift of the swamp mother.

Or even find the ethereal city that never sleeps, and steal the most precious foundation among the revelry tree spirits.

There are no teaching assistants! Just the five apprentices with their own ghosts?
