The Wizarding World: Throne of Frost

Renault came to the temporary residence behind the Crow's Nest. The temporary residences were simple houses built of wood. There were numbers marked on the door of the house, and Renault followed the order and finally found the room marked with the number "19".

As soon as Renault walked to the door of room 19, the door of room 18 opened, and a silly little fat man poked his head out. He was slightly fat, and his little fat body held up the white clothes on his body. Her short blond hair was curled on her head, and her clear blue eyes were looking straight. Looking at Renault curiously, he asked: "Are you a newcomer to the Crow's Nest? I see that you are very lucky and will be designated as an extraordinary person in the future. My name is Parker. I have fourth-level qualifications and am also a newcomer who has chosen to join the Crow's Nest. , come a little earlier than you and make friends.”

After Parker finished speaking, he stretched out his chubby hand. His hand also had the mark of the crow.

"I'm afraid this guy is the legendary Western magic stick!" Renault secretly complained in his heart, but on the surface he still smiled and stretched out his hand to hold the chubby little man's hand and said: "I am Renault, third-class qualification, very good Nice to meet you!"

After Parker shook hands with Renault, he happily greeted loudly: "Everyone, come out quickly, there is a new person here!"

Apprentices came out of the wooden house in twos and threes and gathered together. Renault counted eight or nine people.

Parker introduced Renault to everyone very familiarly: "This is Renault, third-class qualification!"

Then, he began to warmly greet everyone and introduce each other.

"I'm Sim, third-class qualification." A boy with bright red hair and a cheerful personality said first.

"I'm Baker, third-class qualification." A tall, but somewhat honest boy said.

"I'm Anna, fourth-level qualification." A short girl with a few freckles on her face, flamboyant red hair, and a temper as hot as her hair said proudly.

Renault noticed that Parker's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the girl, and he continued to complain in his heart: "It seems that this little fat guy likes this type."

"I'm Leon, with fourth-class qualifications." said a boy who looked like a man of power and had a sunny and handsome appearance. Looking at this boy, Renault was reminded of Prince George of the Principality of Bellman. It was obvious that the two belonged to the same type of person.

It's just that George should be at the Wetland Garden stronghold now. Since Renault offended Kadir, George, as the leader of their group of wizard apprentices from the Principality of Bellman, has not shown any obvious dissatisfaction with Renault. The same, but Renault could clearly feel the distance, which made Renault once again realize that strength is the last word in this world. Renault was basically isolated on the Ocean 7 and made no friends. Finally, he made some friends in the stronghold of Crow's Nest.

"I am Lena, second-class qualification." A very shy and petite girl said, and then stepped aside.

"I am Orosa, second-class qualification." said an inconspicuous boy.

...

After everyone was introduced, Renault clearly felt that their third- and fourth-class apprentices were in a circle, chatting enthusiastically, while the second-class apprentices were in a circle themselves, and the third- and fourth-class apprentices obviously looked down on the second-class apprentices. Renault learned the reason through a conversation with Parker.

It turns out that the reason why the qualifications of wizard apprentices are divided into five levels during the qualification test is because wizard apprentices with different levels of qualifications have different probabilities of becoming official wizards. The highest fifth-level qualification has a probability of more than 80% to become an official wizard. Basically, if nothing unexpected happens, people with fifth-level qualifications are also called geniuses; while those with fourth-level qualifications have hundreds of There is a 50 to 70 percent chance of becoming an official wizard; for third-level qualifications, there is a 30 to 50 percent chance of becoming an official wizard; and for second-level qualifications, there is only a 10 percent chance. The probability of becoming an official wizard; first-class qualifications are the worst, with only a 1% chance of becoming an official wizard.

This is also the reason why the top ten wizarding academies require apprentices to have second-class qualifications or above. The top ten wizarding academies do not want to spend energy cultivating apprentices who have no hope of becoming official wizards.

Renault knew that he had third-class qualifications and according to the old witch who tested him, he was very close to fourth-class qualifications. Renault was quite satisfied. The higher the qualifications, the smaller and rarer the number. Now among the newcomers in Crow's Nest, the number of second-class apprentices is almost the same as the number of their third- and fourth-class apprentices combined.

So far, there have been no apprentices with fifth-level qualifications. It is said that apprentices with fifth-level qualifications have been separated from them and will be uniformly distributed by the top ten colleges based on the affinity of the apprentices. This is like the students who were admitted to college in Reno's previous life and were recommended.

Let’s talk about elemental affinity again. Each wizard has his own elemental affinity. Elemental affinity determines the future path of the wizard.

There are many paths that wizards can choose. Most of them are elemental wizards. Elemental wizards use spiritual power to manipulate various elements such as thunder, fire, ice, etc. Although in theory, wizards can use witchcraft of any elemental system, using the element with the highest affinity to their own elements can make the release of witchcraft faster, and it can also increase the power of witchcraft and vice versa.

For example, if a wizard's elemental affinity is ice, but he insists on performing fire witchcraft, it will not only consume more mental power and magic power, but also the power will be greatly weakened, and it is possible to summon a sea of ​​​​fire. The mental power and magic power, and finally only released a small fireball!

Wizards also have other choices related to elemental affinity, such as blood wizards. Blood wizards are wizards who have merged the blood of extraordinary creatures. The choice of extraordinary creature blood must also be the same as their own elemental affinity in order to obtain bonuses. There are also mechanical wizards in the Sky City. Although they rely on making various machines to improve themselves, most of the machines also need to have elemental inscriptions attached to them, so that they can use elemental attacks. The use of these elements is naturally related to their own elemental affinity.

Even the profession of necromancer generally requires shadow elemental affinity.

Only wizards of the illusion and prophecy systems rely less on elemental affinity. They focus more on improving their mental power, but these two types of wizards rely too much on their own talents.

Through this conversation between apprentices, Renault has benefited a lot. Wizard apprentices like Parker, who come from the local Western Continent, know much more about wizards than Renault. Wizards are not uncommon in the Western Continent, especially wizard apprentices, which are even very common. The islands like the Grand Islands where Renault was located were called desert areas by the people of the Western Continent. There were very few wizard resources there, and it was difficult to see wizards, so naturally the understanding of wizards was very limited.

Renault completely integrated into their small circle of third- and fourth-level apprentices. They kept communicating until the evening, and after eating dinner provided by the Crow's Nest Academy, they returned to their respective rooms.

The room was small, all made of wood, with only a bed and a set of tables and chairs, and the toilet and washroom were all public. At first glance, this was a temporary residence. Renault simply cleaned his room and fell asleep.
