Chapter 228: The Determination to Become Stronger

Four undead apprentices, two of whom were successfully converted.

Lange, who was the most determined, did not encounter good luck, his spiritual power space was shattered, and he was reduced to a conscious vegetative person. Although Voss survived, a permanent rift appeared in the spiritual power space, and he lost the possibility of progress in meditation.

In the end, the Mage Guild of Harland's Territory, according to Lange's wishes, let him die a peaceful death, and the body was also dissected in the hospital for the study of magical medicine.

Voss lost his potential and must have been mediocre for the rest of his life, but he soon married a wife and had children, and gradually came out of the shadows. Although it is impossible to become a magician in his life, Voss is a person with magical talent after all, and he can also use zero-ring magic, and his situation will always surpass that of ordinary people.

The two apprentices of the undead who succeeded in conversion were John and Barn.

After the two of them successfully converted to meditation, it gave a lot of confidence to the other undead apprentices, especially Butler, who walked with the wind during this time.

Butler's determination to become stronger was very great, and even though the success rate of the conversion was only half, he still made up his mind and took the initiative to find Richard and ask for the meditation method to be transferred.

"I see what you mean, but Butler, you're still young, and I think you have time to wait. There are still some problems with the transfer, first, the Book of Curses has not yet been deduced to the professional level, and second, in the process of transferring, there are many problems that we have not yet understood.

The most critical point is that you are a formal magician, and the erosion of the magic energy particles of the undead attribute is more serious, and the risk of transferring to the Book of Curses should be greater, I think you still have to wait for a year or two, and wait for us to have a deeper understanding of the magic energy, and then carry out the conversion of meditation methods, and the probability of success should be greatly increased. ”

"President Richard is right, probably so, but I don't want to see other undead apprentices in my realm surpass me."

Butler's personality is somewhat competitive, and Richard is pleased with this, which is often needed in the study of magic and science.

As long as he does not engage in shady means to suppress competitors, Richard encourages young people to be competitive.

For an organization, it's better to be competitive internally than to be dead.

"Butler, you have to understand that learning magic is a long-term process. The rapid improvement in the past few years is not necessarily a good thing. In my opinion, it is better to run fast than to run steadily. In the long-term competition, only those who can continue to make progress can be regarded as truly excellent. ”

Despite Butler's insistence, Richard did not agree.

There are more than thirty members of the Harland Magic Association, and only Sophia, Wendy, and Butler are the only ones with the highest magical talents.

Superior magical talents, even if they have no magical research talents, no innovation in the study of magic, no feedback from magic particles in meditation, step-by-step meditation, no accidents, generally by the age of fifty or sixty, can advance to the seven rings.

Normally, a high-level magical talent is basically guaranteed to grow into a high-level magician.

With such an excellent talent, it is natural to be valued by Richard.

Butler was sent away, and a second group of undead apprentices who wanted to transfer came to the door.

Although Lange died on the way to the cultivator, he still did not change the determination of the undead apprentices to become stronger.

These undead apprentices from the bottom background, as long as they are given the slightest chance, they will desperately seize it, even if there is great danger, and even lose their lives.

Richard asked himself, did he have such a determination?

The answer is yes, because he is not willing to be mediocre and has a heart that jumps upwards.

On the battlefield Richard is brave, a brave man, able to face everything, including death.

If your identity is transformed, you will still seize every opportunity to change your destiny.

This time there were six people who asked to switch meditation methods, two of whom were already advanced apprentices.

The day before the change of meditation method, Richard talked to them separately, informed them of the dangers of changing the meditation method, and asked them to think clearly before making a decision.

The six undead apprentices were still very determined, and there were no one who quit the next day.

Because of the experience of the last transfer, Richard adjusted the casting strength of the requiem, and Sophia also increased the amount of soul potion.

But in the process of transferring, there are still dead people.

A high-level undead apprentice's mental space shattered and he lost his life on the spot.

There was a crack in the spiritual power space of the two undead apprentices, and the magic level could not be improved for a lifetime, and they also suffered from sequelae such as headaches and neurasthenia.

Only three people have successfully converted to meditation, and the success rate has not improved.

Richard carefully studied each of those who converted to meditation, penetrating into their subconscious several times. Richard was constantly studying the physical data of the nine undead apprentices, the most important of which were the two dead.

In order to understand the cause of death, Richard personally participated in autopsies, using microscopes and visual magnification to study the brains of the deceased.

The cause of the deceased's death was quickly clarified, and the pineal gland of the deceased's brain was attacked by magic energy particles, and it was severely deformed.

Through the study of the deformed pineal gland, Richard discovered that the magician's mental power space was hidden in the pineal gland.

This discovery is very shocking.

In the inheritance of magicians in the Dawn Continent, there should not be this cognition, and Richard's discovery has opened a new door.

However, if we want to find out where the spiritual power space is located in the pineal gland and what is the relationship between the two, I am afraid that more dissection and more research will be needed to determine.

Richard is not a madman desperate for the study of magic, frantically arresting magicians for dissection.

Since the research could not be carried out for the time being, Richard decided to stop and rest for a few days to change his mind.

It's mid-December, and next year Margaret will leave the castle and enter Riverside Elementary School.

Richard decided to spend a few days with his daughter.

Born into a family of lords, Margaric was lonely since she was a child, she had no playmates, and she was surrounded by adults.

The mind of an adult, not on the same channel as a child.

Richard observed that Margaret had not been very happy for the last year or so.

The child doesn't seem to understand anything, but she has a very sensitive heart, and Margaret can sense who is really good to her.

"Margaret, you are not bored in the castle, or we shall go out and relax."

When Richard saw Margaret quietly playing with a wooden cart, he felt a little guilty that he had rarely fulfilled his father's responsibilities.

"May I go out, father?"

Margaret was rarely able to leave the castle for safety, and despite her young age, her position in Haraland's realm was very important. As long as she grows up and becomes a professional, she will be the first heir to Richard and Sophia.

"Yes, Margaret. After the goddess's birthday, you will go to school, and you will be able to meet a lot of children, and you can invite them to the castle. ”

Margaret's safety, Richard will arrange for professional protection, and Anne and Audrey will be responsible for the transportation every day.

Near Riverbank Elementary School, Richard will arrange for a garrison. Guarding next to the barracks, no one dared to attack the riverbank elementary school, which was no different from sending them to death.

Moreover, Sophia is pregnant this year, and Margaret is no longer the only heir.

Having lost the title of sole heir, Margaret's situation was a little safer.

Richard took Margaret in his arms, changed his clothes and walked out of the Lord's Palace, walking aimlessly down the streets, observing the street scene of Fort William.

Fort William was built for many years, but there were still not many people in the city.

Due to the decree prohibiting movement in the Haaland domain, most of the castle was occupied by the families of the garrison and a small number of freemen.

Relatively speaking, almost all the residents of Fort William are supporters of Haaland's subway pole, and the environment is very clean.

Along the smooth road, Richard carried Margaret and walked slowly.

In seven or eight years, Fort William is markedly different from when it was first built.

There were already seven or eight thousand freemen in Fort William, and counting the garrison and the students of the riverside elementary school, there were tens of thousands of inhabitants living in the castle.

There are also a number of villages near the castle, which also have a large number of freedmen. Counting these freemen, the market radiated by Fort William is already close to 20,000 people.

The children were playing in the square and meeting their peers, and Margaret kept writhing in Richard's arms, as if she wanted to participate in the children's play.

Richard put Margaret down, and Margaret looked very happy with the children on her short legs.

Richard looked at Margaret's smiling little face, and his heart suddenly felt very happy.

Margaret spent the afternoon playing in the square with the children, and even her clothes were a little dirty, and in the evening she reluctantly followed Richard back to the castle.

Sophia was a little unhappy when she saw Margaret soiling her clothes, and seeing her gloomy face, Margaret lowered her head and whispered, "Change your clothes, and it will be clean." ”

"You're a girl, your words and deeds must conform to etiquette, what are you like like when you're dirty?"

Sophia took out a small wooden stick from the side of the bed, stared at Margaret's small hand, and said sternly, "Stretch it out." ”

"It's painful for a child to be in a gloomy castle all day. Forget it today, the child is rarely happy. ”

Richard took Sophia's hand and said to Margaret, "Be smart, hurry up and change your clothes." ”

Richard knew in his heart that he was too doting on his children, and he was obedient to everything, and it was difficult to educate his children well.

In order for children to develop a sound personality, family education is very important. There must be one of the parents who is strict and the other who is gentle.

This is true in most families, with strict fathers and loving mothers being the most common combination.

It's just that it was placed in Richard's house, but it was a little upside down and became a strict mother and father.

Sophia has a big belly, and the married life cannot be carried out.

Seeing that Richard was uncomfortable, Sophia turned her head and said with some sadness: "Otherwise, I will find you a court lady." ”

The pregnant woman is very sensitive, and Richard has a deep affection for Sophia after many years of getting along. He didn't want to see Sophia sad, and said resolutely: "No need, I'll go outside and calm down." ”

Winter nights were very cold, and Richard blew cold winds on the balcony of the castle.

The cold north wind blows people's cheeks are red, but in this environment, people's brains are very active.

In order to suppress the secretion of hormones in the brain, Richard deliberately thought of some cruel things to keep himself calm and calm.

Suddenly Richard thought of the dead Lange, and the image of dissecting Lange's brain appeared in Richard's mind.

The bloody brain finally suppressed the impulsive hormones.

An inspiration came to Richard's mind, and he hurriedly grabbed it and wrote it down in the notebook he carried with him.

Richard went to his study, searched for books after books, and wrote down important things in his notebook.

He didn't sleep all night, but the next day he was very energetic, and the next morning Richard couldn't wait to tell Sophia about this idea, and the two studied it for most of the day, and felt that Richard's idea was feasible.

Richard's idea was to refine a special alchemy item, and then transfer all the magical energy in the magician's mental power space to the alchemy item.

Wait for all the magic energy in the body to disappear, and then switch to meditation, which should increase the success rate of the transfer and reduce the intensity of the conflict between the magic energy particles in the spiritual power space.

To refine this special alchemy item, the material can use magic crystals that can store mana.

The internal structure of the alchemy item should be similar to that of a magician's spiritual power space. And the space of the magician's spiritual power is hidden in the pineal gland of the brain.

Richard had already dissected the pineal glands of two magical apprentices, and the general structure had been written down through portraits.

Richard immediately carved a model of the pineal gland with magic crystals, and then engraved a magic circle that absorbed the magic energy particles of the death attribute on the model, creating an alchemy item that imitated the spiritual power space.

This alchemy brain has no utility, no self-awareness, and can only store a small number of death-attribute magic energy particles.

However, this feature can transfer the magic energy in the body of a low-level necromancer.

After using the Alchemy Brain, three more undead apprentices converted to the Book of Curses, and this time they all succeeded.

During this period of time, Richard's thinking was very active, and the progress of his research was very smooth, and in just one or two months, his understanding of the nature of magic energy was deepened, and he successfully deduced the Book of Curses to the fifth layer.

The Book of Curses was successfully deduced, and the Alchemy Brain was also produced.

Butler finally couldn't help it, and once again found Richard, insisting that he switch to meditation.

Butler is an excellent talent in the territory, and Richard and Sophia value him very much, and the two of them personally escorted him, and successfully transferred to the department a few days before the goddess's birthday.

A few days before the goddess's birthday, through the attribute panel, Richard knew that his breathing method was also about to usher in a promotion.

Practicing the breathing method, Richard is a very talented group of people.

Even if he doesn't use killing experience, the speed at which he cultivates the breathing method is equivalent to that of people with excellent talents like William and Roland, and according to Richard's observations, only Jennings is a few points faster than him in Haaland's territory.

After five years of hard work, Richard finally rose from the fourth order to the fifth order. The twenty-five-year-old fifth-order warrior was already the one with the fastest cultivation progress in the Grant Kingdom.
