Chapter 152 Horton's Numbness, Entering the Academy Ruins!
"What?"
Horton was initially taken aback, but then felt a surge of joy.
If you're at the same level as him, it won't help you unlock the ruins at all; that's just how it is.
"I'll gradually increase the intensity, but I won't hurt you," Horton said seriously.
"Um.
""
Ian took a deep breath and focused.
Opportunities like having a certified wizard help test the limits of Body Tempering are rare.
As Horton increased the power of his magic, his expression grew increasingly serious.
Although he didn't have much talent for body-refining sorcery, he practiced it as a first-ring wizard for over ten years.
So his proficiency wasn't actually that high, but his level of mastery was still pretty good.
That is, beyond proficiency.
But he now feels that Ian has surpassed him by quite a bit.
"At the same level, with the same amount of rune condensation, I get twice as much as usual, but Ian gets three times as much, a full double that of me?"
After Horton finished the test, he received a somewhat unbelievable answer.
This is a bit too outrageous.
Why is there such a big difference between the same things?
"With your current defense, it would probably take four or five spells hitting you completely to break through your defenses, even if they were all cast!"
Horton grinned.
This is a body-refining witchcraft technique.
After four or five spells hit, Ian was already right in his face. What good was breaking through his defenses?
Given Ian's current physical strength, he could probably defeat most level zero defensive spells with a single punch.
The Branding Body Tempering Method trains not only physical strength, but also allows you to manipulate runes to enhance your body and unleash power comparable to that of a magical beast.
the other side.
Ian now has a clearer understanding of his current situation.
Physical strength may be greater than mental strength.
This surprised him as to why this body-refining inheritance seemed to be even more powerful than the Four Elements Resonance Meditation Method.
This is strange.
Based on the preceding parts, the two pieces of knowledge should be at the same level, and there shouldn't be such a gap later on.
"Could it be that the Four Elements Resonance Meditation Method is also incomplete?"
Ian's eyes flickered.
He recalled that Horton had also reduced some of the core content of the school's meditation methods.
Could Kieran Howard have done the same thing?
The more Ian thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
"When you practice later, you can focus on feeling whether there are any flaws."
Ian shrugged.
Take a deep breath.
However, now is not the time to explore this, because at this moment he can see that Horton is looking at him intently.
"Ian, I'll give you three days to prepare. After that, you'll come with me deep into the Emerald Shadow Forest!"
Horton felt it was time.
"Okay, teacher."
Ian nodded.
A year has passed, and the day has finally arrived to explore the ruins hidden in the Emerald Forest.
"Teacher, what's the name of the academy that housed those ruins?"
Ian suddenly asked curiously.
Horton looked at him and slowly said, "Emerald Shadow Wizarding Academy!"
In the blink of an eye.
Three days have passed.
Ian had everything ready, and soon Horton appeared at the cave entrance.
"Let's go."
Horton looked at him and said, then tossed him a scroll.
"What's this?" Ian asked, taking it from him.
"A contract scroll from the mysteries of the elements. Although we are teacher and student to each other, whether for your sake or mine, since we are exploring the ruins, let's follow the wizards' custom and sign a contract," Horton said.
Ian was shaken.
Even if Horton didn't bring it up, honestly it wouldn't have much of an impact.
After all, Horton was a full-fledged wizard, while he was just a wizarding apprentice; there was a huge gap between them in terms of both strength and status.
But Horton was still willing.
My opinion of Horton has grown a bit more.
Ian opened the reel.
Horton was in charge of security along the way, while Ian was responsible for opening the ruins.
Once the ruins are opened, the resources are divided 30/70, and Ian can also imprint a copy of the knowledge related to the resource type.
A very reasonable contract.
Even Ian might have too many resources, after all, Horton is a formal wizard.
"However, if I come across something particularly valuable for improving my strength, I might take it all," Horton said without any hesitation.
"Of course."
How could Ian possibly mind?
After all, even if he was the one who opened the ruins, he would never have known about them without Horton.
And with his strength, it would be absolutely impossible for him to penetrate deep into the Emerald Shadow Forest.
Ian signed the contract without hesitation.
Suddenly, it seemed as if an unseen connection was created between the two, and it seemed as if disobeying would result in some kind of punishment.
"Let's go."
Horton headed up the stairs, and Ian quickly followed.
Then, Ian felt a vine wrap around his waist, and the two of them flew into the sky, while a thin membrane blocked their view.
Just a few seconds later, Ian looked at the ground dozens of meters away and felt his breathing quicken.
He certainly wouldn't die from going down that height, but the feeling of entering the sky did give him a thrill.
That's something deeply buried in instinct.
"Formal wizards can condense a mental energy field, allowing them to fly briefly in the sky," Horton explained.
Ian nodded.
The desire for becoming a formal wizard has grown even stronger.
Soon, the two left the school and then slowly descended.
After checking the direction, I headed deeper into the Emerald Shadow Forest.
The further in you go.
Ian could clearly sense that the concentration of magic was rising compared to the surrounding area, and similarly, the density of magical beasts seemed to be increasing as well.
The advantages of having a formal wizard by your side then become apparent.
Almost whenever a monster gets within a few dozen meters, it flees as if startled.
As the trees on both sides gradually rise to 100 meters.
Ian could also sense an aura that was no less powerful than Horton's, and at this moment Horton also slowly concealed his aura.
Ian was also feeling a bit short of breath and followed Horton closely.
If he were out there alone now, he would probably have been torn to shreds by those monsters long ago.
A full day later.
The two finally arrived at their destination.
After passing through a forest, the view suddenly opened up before us.
Beyond a flat plain, a deep blue lake appears in the distance, like a mirror.
"Not here, it's there!" Horton pointed to the far side.
Ian looked over.
Not far from the lake, there is a simple, unremarkable hill covered with plants.
The two slowly approached each other.
Horton gradually emitted a faint aura of the Branding Body Tempering Technique, and a passage leading underground slowly appeared.
"Let's go."
Horton turned to the side and said, then walked directly down the passage.
Ian took a deep breath.
Keep up quickly.
