Time flies.

It's late February.

Apartment living room.

Fog Feather was basking in the sun by the window as usual.

Xiao Yi was lying on the sofa and falling asleep, her slender limbs exposed outside the cup, and her sleeping posture was extremely indecent.

From time to time, his mouth thumped a few times, and he muttered dream words like 'one more drink' and 'I can still drink'.

Pei Ze was sitting on the side, intently checking his state.

【Spirit 160.00】

[Constitution 84.72]

Pei Ze let out a long sigh of relief.

It has been nearly two months since the creation of the omniscient meditation method, and the last will rune has been completed.

You know, the further you go, the more time it takes for the Will Rune to be resolved.

Especially for the will runes after the 24th, it will take at least more than 100 days to parse any of them.

The parsing time of rune No. 32 is as high as more than 500 days.

Without the Omniscient Eye, it would take Pei Ze at least ten years to construct all the Will Runes.

Fortunately, now that the will runes have been completed, and the spiritual attributes have reached 160 points, they finally meet the standard of condensing spiritual crystals.

"It's a pity that after the spiritual attribute is increased to 160 points, no matter how much you meditate, you can't continue to grow."

Pei Ze touched the corner of his forehead, and his eyes flashed.

"It seems that this is the limit of a wizard's apprentice, unless you condense your spiritual crystals and break through to become a wizard and sublimate the essence of life, your spiritual power will not be able to improve in this life."

Pei Ze closed his eyes and browsed the memories in his mind.

During this time, he ran to the library a lot, in addition to investigating the materials of rare metals, that is, to consult the knowledge of condensed spiritual crystals.

In fact, the method of condensing spiritual crystallization is similar to that of wizards, to put it bluntly, it is to continue to compress spiritual power until it crystallizes.

It's easy to say, but it's hard to do.

And once the condensation of the spirit crystallization fails, the spirit will be damaged, the mental power will be permanently reduced, and it will take a lot of time to re-meditate to recover.

At worst, they lost their lives.

Every year, many apprentice wizards die as a result.

For tens of thousands of years in the Astral Alliance, countless wizard apprentices have been stuck in front of this level, and they have not been able to be promoted to wizards for a lifetime.

Opening his eyes, Pei Ze exhaled and said silently: "Omniscience, according to the information I have consulted these days, I have sorted out the spiritual crystallization condensation method that is suitable for me." ”

[A task has been created and the data has been organized, which is expected to take 3 days]

Pei Ze did not hesitate to use the mental acceleration.

In an instant, a lot of knowledge came to mind.

After taking a moment to digest it, Pei Ze gave another order.

"Omniscient, predict the success rate of my current condensation of spiritual crystallization."

【13.51%】

"So low?"

Pei Ze frowned and shook his head.

Also, the greater the number of Will Runes, the more difficult it is to condense spiritual crystals.

And he has built 32 will runes that may be unprecedented in Dawn City, and even in the entire wizarding world, and the difficulty of condensing spiritual crystals is probably far higher than ordinary people imagine.

In addition, his own qualifications are not outstanding, and his strength has improved so rapidly so far, completely relying on the help of the omniscient eye.

The true success rate is already good.

According to the official statistics of Dawn City, without any external factors, the success rate of wizard apprentices in condensing spiritual crystals is only about 20%.

"What about the glass heart?" Pei Ze issued a new order.

In order to increase the success rate of condensing spiritual crystals, wizards have created a number of potions for support.

The use of auxiliary elixirs when condensing spiritual crystals can not only increase the success rate, but also play a protective role, even if it fails in the end, it will at most reduce some spiritual power and not die.

And Lixin Water is the most effective of many auxiliary elixirs.

【Please set the amount of glass water】

"A standard serving." Pei Ze said silently.

【28.61%】

"Only one and a half increases?"

Pei Ze frowned.

The average increase in the success rate of Lixinshui is two and a half!

When he arrived, it had shrunk by nearly forty percent.

"What about two standard servings?"

【41.16%】

"Three standard servings."

【50.23%】

"Four standard servings."

【54.19%】

"Five standard servings."

【54.34%】

Pei Ze shook his head, it seems that the five standard portions of Lixin Water are the most.

No amount of money can improve the success rate.

"The success rate of less than sixty percent is still too low, and besides, the glass heart water is extremely precious, and it is very difficult for ordinary wizard apprentices to get one, let alone five copies."

"I don't know if Mr. Mo Weng has any glass water there?"

Pei Ze quickly had a plan, and was ready to take the time to ask Mo Weng about the condensation of spiritual crystals.

The success rate of more than 50 percent is too low for him to risk nearly half of the failures.

Even if you have the protection of Lixinshui, even if you fail, you won't lose your life.

It must have at least an eighty or ninety percent success rate to be worth trying.

This is also one of Pei Ze's advantages over other wizard apprentices.

With the omniscient eye in his presence, he could clearly know what the success rate of his condensed spirit crystallization was.

If the success rate is too low, he will naturally not rush to attack, but can choose to continue to accumulate material resources and continuously improve the success rate.

This is far safer than the other apprentices who are unsure of their fate.

This is also the main reason why Pei Ze is confident that he will definitely be promoted to wizard.

Even if Mo Weng couldn't find an effective solution, he could wait for a little more information to be collected, and then use the omniscient eye to calculate the method of improving the condensation of spiritual crystallization.

There is always a solution.

Putting this matter behind him for the time being, Pei Ze's heart moved, and in an instant, he saw that the silver bracelet on his left hand melted instantly like hot butter, turning into molten metal and flowing into the palm of his right hand, quickly elongating and transforming into a silver long sword.

These days, Pei Ze has practiced the manipulation of Silver Star in the spell laboratory, and he is quite proficient now.

I have to say that the ability of Silver Star to be plastic at will is very useful.

For example, in battle, Pei Ze can use the Silver Star as a long sword, and when the enemy uses the Silver Star as an ordinary weapon, he can instantly change the form of the Silver Star and kill the enemy by surprise.

This ability is a great killer in melee combat!

Caught off guard, nine out of nine enemies will be hit.

Pei Ze has done a test, and in the case of converging all the molten metal of the silver star to form a giant sharp cone and performing a long-range stab, its power is as high as 65 degrees!

An attack of this power is enough to kill a legendary knight who is not specialized in defense.

It is estimated that only the legendary knight who has mastered the power of the earth element, and is good at defense, can resist a blow head-on.

But it's only a blow.

The power of the first-order witchcraft can be seen from this.

In addition, the shield transformed into the Silver Star is also very strong, and its defense is only stronger than that of the Activated Shield and the Magic Heavy Armor.

Pei Ze guessed that the refining materials of the Silver Star should contain metal materials such as silver dragon tungsten iron.

He tried to test his defenses with spells.

After taking more than ten modified fireball blasts head-on, Silver Star had only slightly reduced the molten metal, and otherwise suffered no damage.

Its defense is also not inferior to its attack.

"This is still in the case that I am only a wizard apprentice and can't give full play to the full abilities of Silver Star, and I am replaced by a formal wizard to manipulate it, how strong should Silver Star's attack and defense be?"

Pei Ze secretly sighed, and had a deeper feeling for the power of the first-order witch weapon.

If there is any flaw in Silver Star, it is that the consumption is terrifying.

Pei Ze has tested that manipulating the Silver Star in one minute will consume more than thirty points of spiritual power.

With his current spiritual power of up to 160 points, he can use Silver Star for four or five minutes at most, and then his mental power will be overdrawn.

Thinking about it more realistically, you still have to consume mental power to cast spells during battle, and it is impossible to use all your mental power to manipulate the Silver Star.

Therefore, after a battle, it will only take about two minutes to use the Silver Star for a full time.

Even Pei Ze was like this, and the time for other third-level wizard apprentices to use first-order witchcraft in a battle was probably not even half a minute.

In this case, the first-order witchcraft can indeed only be used as a hole card for the wizard's apprentice.

If you want to use it as regular equipment, don't count on it.

"We've almost gathered the data, and we should be able to start estimating the metal combinations."

Pei Ze muttered to himself.

By the past few days, he had memorized all the recipes for the metal combinations in the book Moon had given him, and he had consulted a lot of materials in the library.

It just so happens that the taskbar is now free, which can be used to calculate metal combination recipes.

"Omniscient, calculate the best metal combination recipe needed for Silver Star Enhancement."

[Please set specific reinforcement requirements]

Pei Ze already had a draft, and he did not hesitate to give a request.

"Enhance the malleability, toughness, and solidified hardness of the Silver Star, increase spell resistance and elemental resistance, strengthen armor-piercing and shield-breaking characteristics, and reduce mental power consumption when using it."

Pei Ze said a series of demands in one breath.

[A task has been created to start calculating the best metal combination recipe for Silver Star Enhancement, which is expected to take 342 days]

Pei Ze smiled slightly, it's okay, it won't take too long.

If you accelerate it with all your might, you can do it in the early five days.

"Once you've figured out the metal combination recipe, it's time to do your best to parse the lightning runes and flash magic tattoos."

Pei Ze looked at the remaining two tasks.

[Task 2: Parse the lightning rune, estimated to take 108 days]

[Task 3: Analyze the flash magic tattoo, estimated to take 334 days]

"After that, I have to learn new spells, improve spells, and upgrade Qinglan's breathing method."

After sorting it out, Pei Ze found that he still had a lot to do.

"There's a long way to go."

The next day.

Pei Ze came to the academy early.

Since the encirclement operation, he has rarely come to the academy.

Occasionally, I came over, either to the library, or to the spell lab or the No. 8 medicine garden, and I didn't take any teacher's classes at all.

For more than half a month, Pei Ze's heated topic skyrocketed because he killed two legendary knight-level powerhouses in a row, and gradually disappeared because the parties had disappeared for a long time.

What puzzled Pei Ze was that as soon as he stepped into the academy today, he suddenly found that many people were pointing at him, and they seemed to be discussing something.

The heat is back?

Just as he was puzzled, he suddenly saw two familiar figures and immediately raised his voice to greet him.

"Shao Hong, Guan Ling."

Shao Hong and Guan Ling, who were walking in front, turned around and saw that it was Pei Ze who was stunned.

"Why did you come to the academy?" Guan Ling asked in surprise.

"I'm also a cadet of the Tower Academy."

Guan Ling reacted at this time, smiled awkwardly, and said: "You often don't see people, I subconsciously forgot about this stubble." ”

Pei Ze waved his hand, no longer dwelling on this topic, pointed to the whispering crowd around him, and asked in a low voice: "What has happened recently, how do you feel that many people have been discussing me secretly." ”

Shao Hong and Guan Ling glanced at each other before saying, "Haven't you heard about our competition with Red Lotus City?" ”

"I've heard of it."

Halfway through Pei Ze's words, he quickly reacted and raised his eyebrows.

"The Dawn Council has officially announced?"

"That's right." It was Guan Ling who answered, "It was just announced yesterday, and the matter has spread throughout Dawn City. ”

Guan Ling said excitedly, and Shao Hong added from time to time on the side.

After listening to the two of them, Pei Ze suddenly realized.

As Gu Rin said, Dawn City and Red Lotus City planned to use three competitions to determine the final distribution ratio of the new plane's development benefits.

Two of the rounds were attended by official wizards.

If that's all there is to it, then the wizard apprentices won't pay much attention to it.

After all, the official wizard is too far away from them, and at most they can talk about it after the competition.

But the problem is that the participants in one round of the competition are actually third-level wizard apprentices.

This is the excitement of the wizard apprentices!

They never imagined that one day a wizard apprentice like them would be able to participate in such a big thing as deciding the distribution of the plane's benefits.

As soon as the news broke, the entire wizard apprentices in Dawn City became extremely excited.

The cadets of the Tower Academy are no exception.

As a result, the discussion about the candidates quickly swept through the college.

"There are three wizard apprentices participating in the competition."

Guan Ling looked at Pei Ze with shiny eyes, and her expression could not hide her excitement and excitement.

"Many people feel that you are fully qualified to compete for a place in the competition!"

"That's right." Shao Hong nodded earnestly in agreement.

Both of them were telling the truth.

Pei Ze is a genius wizard apprentice who killed two legendary knight-level powerhouses in a row overnight, he is not eligible to compete for a place in the competition, who else in the Tower Academy is eligible to compete?

Originally, there was a Yin Xue in the third grade, but now that she has been promoted to wizard, she does not meet the conditions for participation, so she can only be eliminated.

As for the other third-year students, let alone killing the legendary knight, it is enough to find one that can compete with the legendary knight, so naturally there is no need to think about it.

Thinking about it, only Pei Ze is left.

Because of this, there have been people everywhere in the academy in the past two days discussing Pei Ze's participation in the competition.

"How about it, Pei Ze, do you want to participate?" Guan Ling asked expectantly.

Shao Hong also looked at Pei Ze with expectation.

Pei Ze is a member of the Star Spirit Society, in case he really gets a place in the competition, he will also win on behalf of Dawn City, and he will definitely be famous.

At that time, even with them, the Star Spirit Society will be greatly famous.

In this way, when the new students enter next year, they will definitely attract more wizard apprentices to join their association.

"Contest?"

Pei Ze's eyes moved slightly, but he quickly shook his head again.

"Let's talk about it."

It is not clear what the specific format of the competition will be and what the rewards will be, so it is not easy to decide.

Anyway, I'm going to find Mr. Mo Weng, so I just asked.

After listening to Pei Ze's words, Shao Hong and Guan Ling were a little disappointed.

But it's not easy for the two to persuade much, after all, this is Pei Ze's own business.

After chatting a few more words, Pei Ze separated from the two of them with interest and did not stay as a light bulb.

No. 8 Medicine Garden.

Pei Ze came to Mo Weng's pharmacy with ease, and Yin Xue happened to be inside.

Seeing Pei Ze, Yin Xue smiled and said, "Senior brother, you came just in time, we were still talking about you just now." ”

Pei Ze greeted Mo Weng first, and then responded with a smile: "Let me guess, it's about the competition." ”

Yin Xue smiled: "It seems that you have heard about it, how about it, are you interested?" ”

Pei Ze smiled noncommittally, did not answer this question, but bowed slightly towards Mo Weng and said, "Teacher, I want to ask you something." ”

Mo Weng said calmly: "What's the matter? ”

"In addition to the auxiliary elixir of Lixin Water, what other ways can improve the success rate of condensing spiritual crystals?"

As soon as these words came out, Yin Xue was stunned.

Mo Weng was also stunned, and then his eyes lit up sharply, and he looked Pei Ze up and down sharply, and asked in a deep voice:

"Have you reached the standard of condensing spiritual crystals?"
