The Wizard World

The corner of Seager's mouth curved into a smile: "Hurry up, you're just short of seasoning. Also, thank you for saving me today."

"Aren't we companions? It's appropriate to retain some strength at a time like this." Angelet smiled, "So you don't have to thank me."

"Anyway, you saved my life, it's a fact." Sig didn't care, and shook the plate at Angelet, "Come on, they asked me to come here to find you, but now you are Our leader."

"That's good." Angelet was slightly stunned, as if recalling something. Then he laughed too.

"Lei Linnan has gone back to get the ale. As soon as your seasoning arrives, we can officially hold the barbecue party." Sig laughed twice.

Angelet's originally cold mood suddenly warmed up slightly.

It's not that I was moved, it's just because of the social nature of people, it's just that I don't feel lonely anymore, I'm no longer alone.

He turned around and went back to get the condiments, released the nightwing from the box, and let it fly out to look for food. Then he walked out of the room.

The reception is held on deck.

Five people lit a bonfire on the deck and sat together.

On the dark deck, the moonlight shone dimly, and the sound of whistling wind and the heating of hot air balloons could be heard from time to time in the high sky. The campfire made a faint crackling sound of burning wood.

The swaying bright yellow flame of the bonfire illuminated an entire area behind the deck. A black metal shelf was set above the fire, and a row of more than a dozen black metal skewers were strung on it. There are evenly cut slices of meat on top, and the tempting meat fragrance slowly permeates. It was immediately blown away by the cold wind at high altitude.

Lei Linnan sat down with a brown bamboo basket, and there were five emerald green slender transparent wine bottles in the basket. It contained crystal clear emerald green liquor.

"One for each." He handed one to each of the other four.

The grilled meat made a hissing frying sound, and Angelet used a small spoon to continuously sprinkle some fine gray and white powder evenly, and a strong chili aroma came out along with the grilling.

Taking the wine bottle, Angelet put it beside him.

The five sat in the lee behind the entrance wall of the cabin. Seaman found some planks from nowhere, and built a small shed close to the wall. Just enough to block the cold wind from the side.

"There is still half a month before the next dangerous point. We have enough time to rest. As long as the method is right this time, we should not rush out so early, just wait a little bit. We should be able to pass safely." Signey Tear a piece of meat off the skewer in one bite. Then take a sip of ale. "Everyone can relax for a while."

"Haliti ale, very pure green color." Seaman also uncorked the bottle and took a sip. "It tastes good too. Forty years?"

"Forty-two years." Lei Linnan took a sip of ale. whispered. "By the way, I may be promoted in a while."

"Promoted?" Seaman put down the beer bottle he was drinking, and was slightly stunned.

Signi also stopped what he was doing and looked at Lei Linnan.

Moira's complexion was slightly envious, and she lowered her head not knowing what she was thinking.

"The promotion has been crystallized." Lei Linnan added, "I am now preparing for the second crystallization ceremony. The materials and resources required for my ceremony are all ready when I board the ship. If there is no accident, five days later , you can start to promote. If you succeed, you will naturally have nothing to say. If you fail, maybe you can die here easily and cleanly.”

"It should be that the fierce battle during this period has stimulated my mental strength. I have also improved a lot." Seaman nodded. "White wizards like us have lived in a stable environment like Nora for too long, and suddenly encountered this kind of dangerous fighting stimulation. It is normal to have a large increase."

"I haven't moved much." Signey shook his head and said, "This kind of battle only stimulates the growth of my mental power by a small amount."

Angelet sat by the campfire, looking at the blazing fire, a little lost in thought.

For this level of fighting, he has no feeling at all. His mental strength didn't grow at all either, he had adapted to this level of dangerous stimulation a long time ago.

Although there is no increase, he can use the machete of evil thoughts to extract biological energy and improve his spiritual power. To some extent, this improvement was much faster than the improvement of the mental power of the other four people.

And now he already knows how to get through the period of synchronous coordination and adaptation of his mind and body. As long as he has advanced meditation ideas, constantly hunts dangerous creatures with evil thoughts scimitar, and continuously accumulates biological energy, he can quickly reach the standard of crystallization. We can analyze the requirements for promotion to the second level.

Hearing what the others said, Angelet didn't make a sound.

He tore off the grilled meat from the skewers in one bite, grabbed a few slices of green vegetables from the green plate and stuffed them into his mouth. The mouthful of barbecue aroma, hot crispy meat and refreshing green vegetables are mixed together, moderately salty and spicy, very delicious.

"As I said before, if the five of us can survive the melee this time, if we can really reach the central region, our future development will definitely not be small." Seaman said in a low voice. "I've been in the liquefaction stage for thirty years, and this time I'm actually approaching the level of spiritual power of crystallization. I can feel that as long as I find a peaceful place to rest for a few more years, I can start preparing for the crystallization ceremony. "

"If there are enough resources for the crystallization ceremony, there is no problem. It's just that our wizards on the west coast have no other way to improve their spiritual power except by using resource piles. Potions, materials, and talisman array enhancements. This is our only promotion. method." Lei Linnan said in a low voice.

"That's true, but the wizards in our central region are different." Signey interjected, "It's not difficult for the wizards in the central region to improve their mental power. The main reason is that it is difficult to hit the bottleneck. Although I left the family very early, I still know Some information about this aspect. The advanced meditation methods of some families and organizations all have the effect of improving spiritual power. These meditation methods themselves have different levels, and each time they reach a level, they can increase a certain amount of spiritual power, and even It will also be affected by the spiritual element."

"Spiritual elementalization?" Angelet came back to his senses, and asked with a frown, "What is that?"

"Green, have you met Lord Ivana? Or Lord Fran Jones?" Lei Linnan asked.

"I've met Master Fran." Angelet nodded. "You mean...the kind of power that can damage people's spirit just by looking at it?"

"That's right, Master Fran's coldness is a sign of her extreme spiritual elements. This means that she once obtained advanced meditation methods of ice elements when she was a first-level wizard." Signey nodded affirmatively.

"Then why didn't she pass it to the Jones family?" Moira asked on the side.

"The oath contract is the most commonly used method by the wizards in the central region. It is also the most effective method of binding and keeping secrets. Through the effectiveness of witchcraft, a strange power is implanted deep in the spirit of the wizards. Once the signer violates the oath contract, he will be punished. Injury such as soul annihilation." Signey explained, "This is also the key to the two adults, Fran and Ivana, who dare not spread the advanced meditation method."

"Tell us about the situation in the middle of the country. Sig." Angelet said.

"Central?" Seeger smiled with a bitter expression. "My family is only entrenched in the central and fringe areas. And I'm just an ordinary child in the family. What can I know?"

"Just tell me, what should we do after we arrive in the middle?" Angelet said flatly.

Seeger was silent for a while, as if recalling something, the other four did not panic, just waiting for him quietly.

After a few minutes, he came back to his senses.

"There is no concept of a country in the central region, only wizarding organizations and families occupy their own territories. I was once fortunate enough to see a map in my father's study. The densely packed names of dozens or hundreds of wizarding organizations dazzled me. Wizards The chosen regions are all kinds of strange, all kinds of places. Some places even have wizarding wars happening every day."

"War? Aren't you afraid of excessive consumption?" Seaman whispered.

"The population in the central region is much larger than you can imagine. There may be millions of people in one of our cities. There is no concealment between wizards and ordinary people, and ordinary people know that wizards are the ones in power. In the central region, ordinary people can only become middle-level people." Only wizards can become nobles and have certain rights and status. And because the elemental energy is much more active than on the west coast, ordinary people in the central region have more aptitude." Seeger explained. "Many even become official wizards in their teens, and there are not a few of them. Can you imagine people who become wizards in their teens?" There was a trace of bitterness on his face. "I didn't become an official wizard until I was forty-seven."

Several people were silent.

"I became a wizard at the age of twenty-three." Lei Linnan continued. "It's been over forty years now."

"I'm fifty years old." Seaman whispered.

"I'm forty-one." It was Moira.

Angelet glanced at a few people: "I'm also in my twenties." He was worried that he was too young, but he didn't expect that he didn't look too young.

"Many people will stay in the third-class apprentice for a long time. This is normal. The third-class apprentice will have a longer life span. Generally, they will be fully prepared before making an impact." Signey calmed down.

"If you reach the central region, you can act alone to become hunters. Go to the wizard tower to accept sporadic tasks to accumulate resources. You can also choose to go back to my family with me, join the family to accumulate meritorious service, and prepare for advanced meditation in the future." He continued explain.

"Didn't you say that advanced meditation methods are hard to come by?" Angelet asked in a low voice.

"I don't know about other organizations, but my family divides meditation methods into several parts and teaches them separately. Moreover, the difficulty of advanced meditation methods is far from that of low-level meditation methods. Various bottlenecks and difficulties may also be encountered during the period. Breakthrough If there is no bottleneck, the effect will be the same as that of low-level meditation. Of course, the better the advanced meditation, the stronger the improvement speed and promotion probability. Many of them also have some special abilities and witchcraft, and the higher the level of meditation , the stronger the additional ability. It can be said that only in the middle, the power of the wizard can be fully reflected. In addition to the talent witchcraft, we also have the ability witchcraft brought by meditation, and the ability to magic items and magic weapons." He paused, "Just like the thorn light ring in your hand, Green, this magic weapon is considered a relatively good magic weapon in the middle, but it is not very good. It also belongs to the kind that can be purchased with resources and items. It's an exchange."

"Really?" Angelet narrowed his eyes slightly, and had a general understanding of the situation in the middle. It seemed to be a more prosperous place than the West Coast. A place where wizards establish all order.

"For the wizards in our central region, the battle is more about instant witchcraft. The ability of talent witchcraft and meditation is the key to measure the strength of a wizard. Unlike the West Coast, many wizards in the central region rely on high-level enchanted items And magic weapons, to achieve the purpose of quickly casting witchcraft to defeat the opponent. Of course, there are also a lot of magic items and magic weapons to increase defense security. So don't have conflicts with wizards at will. Once conflicts occur, you must first hide and protect them Myself. One or two sneak attacks, generally can’t kill a wizard. Destroying one layer of protection doesn’t mean anything. Maybe there are second and third layers. Moreover, the more spiritually powerful a wizard is, the less he should provoke him, because The strength of the mental power determines the number of high-level magical items he can control. There is a wizard in my family who is famous for maintaining and activating four magical items at the same time to achieve extremely strong defense. The four layers of protection are superimposed and can be used anytime, anywhere Automatically protects the body. It is not afraid of sneak attacks at all." Signey added.

The rest of the people, including Angelet, were faintly startled. (to be continued)rq
