The Lord of Ashes

Mentor Moses gave Thain an extra six months of leave, allowing Thain to meditate on his mental power and accumulate magic power during this time.

Thain did not rush to learn any new knowledge during this period, because judging from the instructor's attitude, the time and situation were both urgent.

Just half a year was not enough for Thain to make any outstanding progress in any magic.

On the contrary, improving some mental power and magic power as much as possible is the fastest way to increase strength.

It was also during this half-year that Thain discovered that the college’s public courses had been suspended.

Low-level apprentices and entry-level apprentices can only obtain limited knowledge through public libraries.

But how many academy points can entry-level apprentices and low-level apprentices spend squandering?

Knowing that changes are coming in half a year, these entry-level apprentices and low-level apprentices with low strength may have been directly abandoned by the official black magicians of the academy.

Indeed, if you want to help the academy place the "coordinate generator" in an alien plane where the situation is unknown, as your mentor Mosheduo said.

It is estimated that at least senior apprentices and quasi-magicians have this ability.

Even mid-level apprentices like Thain will probably be cannon fodder by then, not to mention those little guys with even lower abilities.

It was also during this six months that Thane and Lina had many communications about the alien plane.

No need for Thain to say it himself, Lina had already learned the relevant information from her mentor Ferena in advance.

But after all, Lina still didn’t know as much as Thane.

For example, her mentor Felena did not talk to her about the "coordinate generator" and the hidden threats from the surface. She only told her that in half a year the college would launch an exploration of an alien plane behind a space-time rift.

Except for Lina, Thane thought about it briefly and finally decided to reveal the information in advance to his two close friends-Merry and Bose.

As expected, Fatty Boss didn't know anything about it, and was shocked when he learned the news from Thain.

Even though he simply learned the news half a year in advance, this time difference was enough for Fatty Boss to reach the forefront of most low-level apprentices.

If there is any crisis in the future, he will have a higher survival rate.

What surprised Thain a little was that there was an official black man

Merry, with the magician Dils as her mentor, had no idea what was about to happen half a year later!

It can be seen that the importance Master Diers attaches to Meili is far less than the investment of mentor Moses in Thain.

Including the old witch Felena, who seemed to keep away from strangers, at least told Lina some relevant information, unlike Diers who completely hid it from her apprentice.

Of course, it is also possible that Meili's strength is too low, and she is just a low-level apprentice. I am afraid that she will be more cannon fodder than Thane.

Meili is not the only pharmacy apprentice under Master Diers.

Even if it's a loss, this femme fatale probably won't have any heartache.

Half a year was spent in this tense and weird college atmosphere.

Although only a handful of middle and high-level apprentices, including Thain and Lina, knew about it at first, as time went by, some scattered news and rumors gradually spread throughout the entire academy.

Although there was no panic, a tense atmosphere permeated the entire academy.

All apprentices are desperately trying to increase their strength or find ways to increase their chances of survival.

It was also under this circumstance that the threshold of Bose's magic shop was almost broken.

Including Meili, she also received a large number of pharmaceutical orders from low-level and mid-level apprentices.

Because of the news informed by Thain in advance, Fatty Boss used his private money to hoard a large number of things during this period.

Before the crisis could come, Fatty Bose finally chose to risk his life instead of money.

Fatty Bose has not used almost all low-level magic materials or potions that can be used in the past six months.

Instead, leave them behind, or give them to Merry and Thain who can better utilize the value of those magic materials.

The fat man even found a good-looking intermediate magic item from somewhere, which can provide an intermediate magic - a cloak of blast spell, which greatly enhances his life-saving ability.

Meili's decisions in the past six months were somewhat beyond Thain's expectations.

In addition to cramming and learning the enhanced secondary fireball technique from Thain for a period of time, she still focused more on preparing potions.

Several years have passed, and although Meili's apprenticeship level is still at the low level, her talent in the field of pharmacy is truly outstanding.

Also difficult

During his low-level apprenticeship, Wei Hui was spotted by Diers, the official black magician.

Meili could barely make the intermediate recovery potion a year ago, and for the same level of magic potion, Meili has learned to master the intermediate antidote and vitality potion this year.

Needless to say, there is no need to mention the intermediate antidote, but the vitality potion is a rare potion that can help magic apprentices revive their spirits and improve their meditation efficiency.

Sometimes after staying up for a whole day and night in experimental research, when the spirit is extremely exhausted, taking an energizing potion can restore the sluggish spirit.

However, compared to restoring their mental energy, Thain and most of the magic apprentices value more the vitality potion's ability to improve part of the meditation efficiency and even speed up the recovery of mental power.

With the dual recovery blessings of the Vitality Potion and the Acid Cane, even though Thain is only an intermediate apprentice, the durability of his magic release is enough to rival that of an average senior apprentice.

Of course, the potions made by Meili did not fall into other people's hands.

Thane, Lina, Bose, and Meili have formed a relatively stable cooperative group.

Among them, Lina is the strongest, and Boss and Mellie also have their own roles.

As for Thane, after months of intense meditation with the help of the vitality potion provided by Mellie.

In the last two months, he devoted himself to making three pieces of equipment that were in good condition and were the highest quality equipment he had made so far.

A string of black stone necklaces can speed up the guidance and concentration of part of the user's dark elemental power. This is a magic prop made by Thain for Lina. It is a small and top-notch low-level magic prop.

With Lina's strength, equipment incorporating some low-level offensive magic would not have much improvement effect on her.

On the contrary, this functional black stone necklace is more useful to Lina than ordinary intermediate magic props.

A pair of anklets engraved with low-level magic - light body magic, are the equipment that Thain made for Fatty Boss.

Originally, Thain wanted to make an offensive magic equipment for Fatty, but Fatty knew that even if he added an offensive magic, it would not help the overall strength and chance of survival.

It's better to make a life-saving item to match his cloak to improve his escape ability.

A corrosive cane, which was the highest quality magic equipment that Thain had made in the past two months, was given to Meili, who had provided him with many potions and was weak in strength.
