The Witcher: Son of the Planes

Chapter 74 Preparation before the competition

The leader of Tarim, who had been waiting in the tribe for a long time, never waited for Colin and others. If he hadn't received Colin's message later, he would have thought something had happened.

The four people of Tarim, who were eager to go home, did not visit Tarim's tribe. They just left a message and returned to the surface.

Billy returned to Barna Town long before Colin and others went to Montreux City. Baron Resta's reward for him was not mentioned.

Colin and others returned to Griman College to hand in the task of purchasing radium ore. After selling the spoils of wild boar tusks and excess radium ore, they began to study intensively again.

In order to speed up the pace of improving their strength, Colin and Helen began to use their merit points and wizard coins at all costs, buying a large number of spell courses and some attribute potions.

At the same time, since Colin also worked part-time as an intermediate knight attendant, he also made a half-body armor in the blacksmith shop outside the city, further increasing his own defense.

Although there is no shortage of merit points, Colin and others did not take a lot of drugs because of the drug resistance.

After taking two bottles of intermediate mental potion and two bottles of intermediate strength potion (newly purchased after returning to Grimman Island), Colin also stopped taking the medicine.

After taking the medicine, Colin's strength was slightly improved. After a detailed test on Earth, Colin's new physical data came out.

Colin, male, 22 years old, strength 16.4, agility 15.3, physique 13.7, mental power 10, lucky? .

...

Three years passed in a flash.

A week ago, Colin finally caught the last train and fortunately broke through to the advanced wizard apprentice.

The latest data after the breakthrough is as follows: Colin, male, 25 years old, strength 16.5, agility 15.4, physique 14, mental power 12, lucky? .

In terms of spells, I learned the advanced earth-based defensive spells Stoneskin, Earth Wall and Slow, and I also learned a flame knife for attack spells.

Colin's strength has made great progress, and he has gained some confidence in the competition half a month later.

Helen's luck is not as good as Colin's. Her mental power is only 11.8, which does not meet the minimum requirement for promotion to a senior wizard apprentice.

However, Helen's spells have also learned the group attack spell Frost Nova, and the strongest single ice attack spell below the first-level wizard, Frozen Ray, and her strength has also improved qualitatively.

Nora's mental power has also reached the critical point of 8 points, but she has not broken through to the intermediate wizard apprentice. Because she did not participate in the college competition, she also had to take care of the business of the store. She did not work as hard as Colin and Helen, but only learned an additional attack spell of Qianye.

Finally, let's talk about Rose. She finally got started and became a low-level wizard apprentice. She mastered the first offensive spell, Soul Piercing, which is a spell that directly affects the mind.

During this period, Richard, Lilibet and others, who had been waiting for Colin and Helen to return from their studies, accompanied by Alex and Gandalf, made a special trip to Grimman Island to visit them.

When Helen saw her parents, she burst into tears on the spot in her residence outside the academy. After accompanying her parents for a few days, she had to continue to study intensively.

Before leaving, Richard and his party left Colin 2,000 wizard coins and once again told him to treat Helen well, otherwise be careful and so on.

During this period, Colin and his friends also went on one or two missions with Connie and her sister, Marcus, Banta and others, and witnessed their newly learned spells in actual combat.

After making friends with Tarim, Darabon and Beta Bloodhoof in the underground world, Colin discovered the strong demand for food in the underground world, so he transported a large amount of food to the underground world for trading, in exchange for a lot of wizard coins. For the first time, Colin and Helen's assets reached 10,000 wizard coins.

This amount of wizard coins is considered a minority of wealthy people among the group of senior wizard apprentices.

Colin's friends are not stagnant.

Marcus also broke through to the advanced wizard apprentice, but he majored in earth defense and auxiliary spells. His attack power did not increase much, but his defense power was really strong. He was responsible for defense in several missions, and he felt more like a turtle shell.

Banta didn't look like a wizard apprentice at all, and he looked more like a knight than Colin before. The spells he learned were skills to enhance his own strength, speed and weapon attack power. He felt like a melee wizard.

Conrad did not advance to the advanced wizard apprentice, but he broke through to the advanced knight attendant. He felt that he might have a breathing method passed down from his family. However, he also faced the problem of choosing a path. It was not a big problem for a wizard to work part-time as a knight before the first level. It would definitely have an impact after the first level, but he had not thought it through yet.

Connie's breakthrough was faster than Colin's. She broke through to the advanced wizard apprentice half a month earlier than Colin, and she also worked part-time as an intermediate ranger, majoring in wind magic. This woman, who was just an apprentice magician when Colin met her, made rapid progress, especially in terms of attack and speed. She was ahead of Colin and others.

Colin had an urgent need to improve his strength. Only by standing at the highest point could he further understand the world, and only after understanding the truth of the world could he find his way home.

He had mastered the new skills very well, and he could easily match and apply them. The four-dimensional attributes of the body could not be greatly improved in the short term, but mental strength was indeed the foundation of the wizard profession.

Although the official competition will begin soon, Colin, who does not want to relax for a moment, is making his final effort.

In the last few days before the competition, I have been trying to buy advanced mental potions, but it is said that this is only in the hands of formal wizards and cannot be bought on the market.

Shamelessly, Colin also tried to ask his mentor Lina. Lina still had some impression of her student, but Lina was considering that she would soon participate in the competition, and even if she increased her mental power a little, it would not be of much use, so she did not agree to Colin's request.

Colin had to give up, but still bought several bottles of potions to replenish mana and physical strength in the short term to deal with the next competition.

In the expectation of Colin and others, Griman Academy finally announced the latest competition details. The competition will be conducted at three levels: advanced, intermediate, and elementary.

Only the top three in the intermediate and elementary levels will be decided, and the academy will give corresponding rewards respectively, and they will not participate in competitions outside the academy.

The top eight in the advanced level will be decided. The top five will be considered as formal members of the academy, led by formal wizards to compete with senior wizard apprentices from other forces on the continent, and the sixth to eighth will be considered as alternate members.

...

The much-anticipated college competition has begun!
