Chapter 87 Radiant Eyes, Spiritual Guidance Technique
Advancing to the second tier is indeed a big deal.
Putting everything else aside, the resources that the Silvermoon Lake family has brought back are at least something that makes Ian very happy.
At the same time, there are many other things to do.
For example, the expansion of laboratories, and the improvement of wizards' treatment.
Ian handed the former over directly to Vivian, with Fain and Jesse helping to take charge. As for the latter...
The improvement wasn't significant.
Regarding magic stones, only ten were increased, mainly in terms of permissions, but the problem is that the permissions for training sequences are completely superior.
But it didn't matter anymore, because with his advancement, Ian finally had a reason to purchase the knowledge of a second-class wizard.
"Permissions to cultivate sequences: zero-ring intermediate sorcery, no limit on common level, three excellent level spells can be purchased each year, and one superior level spell can be purchased."
Ian recalled what happened at the time.
As for low-level witchcraft at the zero ring level, it did exist, but Ian really couldn't muster any interest in it.
Maybe I'll study it when I'm satisfied later.
I can't wait.
Ian arrived at the college library.
Second-class underground.
"Look at the excellent ones first."
Ian went straight to the Excellent level of sorcery.
There aren't many spells here, maybe only a dozen or so, and Ian's goal is clear: to choose a defensive spell.
This type is even rarer, with only three.
There is a technique called Stone Skin Technique, which transforms the body into a stone-like state, providing strong defense but reducing speed.
The second is flesh parasitism, which involves implanting a magical plant seed called "Iron Wire Vine" under the skin, which can quickly grow a layer of vine armor in times of crisis.
The third one is called Elemental Veins, which form a layer of elemental veins on the body's surface. It can be activated at any time to form an elemental shield, and it will also reduce the damage when magic attacks are applied to it!
"We can only choose the elemental veins now."
Ian shook his head. There was nothing to hesitate about; he didn't like the kind of thing that would damage the body itself.
The Emerald Forest is primarily inhabited by elemental wizards, making the art of elemental veins a perfect fit.
"But the price is really expensive!"
Upon seeing the price, Ian grinned.
Excellence does indeed come at a price; this sorcery is worth a full two hundred and fifty magic stones.
However, thinking of Hal's miserable state, Ian shook his head and directly purchased the witchcraft.
The quota for the Excellent level has been used up, so let's turn our attention to the Superior level of witchcraft.
"My two current spells are both combat-related; here you can choose some other types of spells."
Ian quickly chose three magic spells.
These are wind pressure, water curtain barrier, and water snake bite.
Wind pressure can instantly create a powerful, high-speed rotating airflow around the target, binding the wizard.
The water barrier can form a 360-degree water-based shield that reduces the damage from attacks.
Finally, with the Water Serpent Bite, it can summon several lifelike "water snakes" made of rushing water. These water snakes can automatically track, entangle, and bite enemies under Ian's mental guidance.
They are all excellent forms of witchcraft.
"Only after I've learned all of this can I barely be considered a proper second-class wizard apprentice."
Just as Ian had anticipated.
A wizard must be as versatile as possible, possessing different spells to adapt to different environments.
These spells are far from enough, but that is Ian's goal.
"These high-level witchcraft spells are expensive too!"
Ian remarked that the three spells before him had different prices, with an average price of 151.
The difference compared to my time as a first-class wizard apprentice is enormous.
However, the fact that the cultivation sequences are subject to annual purchase restrictions only demonstrates their absolute value.
Judging from the runes, at least the excellent-level sorcery uses at least two or three advanced runes, while the superior-level sorcery uses five.
Looking at ordinary-level witchcraft, it basically uses a rune, and the price is generally around fifty or sixty.
"So how exactly do second-tier wizards earn magic stones?"
Ian was puzzled at this moment.
Needless to say, the Potions Department is responsible for setting up a potions laboratory and for wizards to prepare potions, mainly because the latter has more magic stones.
What about the other wizards?
It must be from other channels.
I'll ask around afterwards.
Soon, Ian paid seven hundred magic stones and obtained four spells, feeling a pang of regret.
If it weren't for Hal's support, he really wouldn't have been able to afford it.
It was worth it, though. His plan had long ago been to focus on learning a set of spells for combat, and then learn spells to enhance his talents.
This is not contradictory.
He purchased witchcraft.
Ian also discovered a new problem: he needed some relevant resources to learn.
In other words, the materials used for casting spells.
These restrictions are very restrictive now, so Ian has no choice but to go see Vivian.
"Resources for learning witchcraft?"
Vivian raised her head, pondered for a few seconds, and said, "Now the school has begun to completely restrict these resources. Ordinary second-class wizard apprentices can only purchase them by completing various tasks. This is also the main way for wizards in the school to obtain magic stones."
Otherwise, the meager amount of magic stones provided by the school each month would be far from enough to sustain the training of a second-tier wizard.
It turned out to be the case.
Ian suddenly realized.
Even if you don't practice every month, once you reach the second-tier wizard apprentice level, you still need resources to maintain the runes.
Otherwise, the advanced runes you condense will regress.
More resources are needed to make progress.
This is why many wizards keep trying to earn magic stones.
"But what about you?"
Vivian looked up at Ian and said, "So you can choose some potion-making tasks. Now that you've advanced to Tier 2, it's time to pick up potion-making skills. You can also start trying out the magic potion-making inheritance."
1
Ian's eyes widened in surprise.
It was only then that he remembered this matter.
It's not his fault; the potion inheritance is at the intermediate level of the zero ring, so he has never been able to obtain it.
This is also one of the reasons why he didn't study pharmacy much that year.
Using the Conduit spell and the Eye of Light, I'm still struggling to keep up with the advanced potion learning.
Now that I've reached the level of a second-class wizard, it seems I can indeed begin learning new knowledge.
"What conditions need to be met?"
Ian asked instinctively.
In this academy, everything has to meet certain conditions.
"Of course it's necessary. In fact, it would take an average pharmacist more than a decade of effort to purchase it."
Ian raised an eyebrow.
"But..." Vivian smiled and said, "You entered the training program as an intermediate-level pharmacist, so you can buy one directly."
Ian smiled.
It must be said that entering the training program was the most important decision he had made since enrolling.
Soon, Ian obtained the advanced versions of the channeling spell and the Eye of the Glimmer.
The Radiant Eyes, and spiritual guidance techniques.
Each item costs 400 magic stones, for a total of 800 magic stones.
It is indeed expensive, but Ian believes in a principle within the school: the value of a magic stone depends on the type of knowledge it contains.
"Good luck, but this time you'll have to purchase the materials yourself. Similarly, if you need other types of resources, you can apply for them and I'll sign off on them."
Vivian said calmly.
At least in the current situation, it's not to the point where even she can't get an application.
Now that Ian is one of her core subordinates, she's willing to do this little bit of work.
"Thank you, Minister."
Ian bowed.
It must be said that as long as you have value, Vivian is definitely a good boss.
The materials for witchcraft are all ready.
The magic stone, and once the laboratory is established, should provide enough funds for his remaining studies in witchcraft.
The next step is to continue improving!
This time.
He wants to get his talent to 500 points first!
