Chapter 76 The Turmoil Continues, an Inevitable Change
back home.
Ian put on the three magical artifacts.
I stood in front of the mirror.
An image immediately came into view.
The figure in the mirror was tall and handsome, with deep brown eyes that appeared gentle and focused when calm.
He wore a dark blue guardian robe, with thorn patterns embroidered in deep silver thread on the cuffs. He wore a concealment ring on his left hand, while the Void Stone set in the matte silver ring on his right hand emitted a faint glow.
He also held the Echoing Staff in his right hand—the light gray-brown wooden staff was very understated, with a pure white echoing crystal the size of a pigeon's egg inlaid at the top.
Everything looked harmonious and natural.
"That's great!"
Ian was quite satisfied with the three magical artifacts; at least they made him feel more like a spellcaster.
"However, I still need to imprint my spiritual power into it before it can truly belong to me."
Ian thought to himself.
Witchcraft artifacts cannot be used directly; one's own spiritual imprint must be imprinted on them.
Otherwise, even if you get it, you won't be able to use it.
Ian quickly imprinted the mental energy runes.
At this moment, I also felt the quality of the three magical artifacts.
Just as Ed said.
"This echoing crystal can store at least a quarter of my mental energy, and I can clearly feel that my mental energy is more stable."
Ian picked up his staff, then looked at his wizard robes.
Although it is very thin and light.
However, he could sense the defensive runes contained within, enough to protect him from fatal energy attacks.
"And a spatial ring."
Ian touched the ring face, but the staff in his hand suddenly disappeared.
The staff reappeared in his hand the next second.
"It's so convenient to use anytime, anywhere."
Ian sighed, then put in some commonly used materials, including the seven mid-grade magic stones.
In terms of magic power alone, a mid-grade magic stone is dozens of times more powerful than a low-grade magic stone, and it can even be used as an excellent material for magical creatures.
A value of one hundred magic stones is definitely an understatement.
"A full seven hundred magic stones!"
Ian remarked with a sigh.
With the support from his department and family, as well as the future profits from the laboratory, he can now focus entirely on his cultivation.
"Once everything is settled, I can focus on my studies."
Ian's restless thoughts gradually subsided.
These past few days have indeed felt like he's gone from the ground to the sky, but all of this is simply because he advanced to the next level of the cultivation sequence.
Once the hype dies down, it may disappear in no time.
Everything depends on strength.
He is currently only a beginner second-level wizard apprentice, and has not even condensed a single advanced rune.
There are still many areas that need improvement.
"So we need to continue working hard to improve our skills, and of course, our talent as well."
Ian's gaze was resolute.
The former goes without saying, but every step the latter took had a huge impact on him.
He would now be second class.
There's one level above that!
If the difference between third class and second class is so great, then what about the difference between second class and first class!
After all, in terms of pure talent points, the difference between second-class and first-class is far greater than any previous time.
"We still need to work harder!"
Ian grinned.
Once he's done with this busy period, he should refocus his energy on himself.
Extraordinary world.
Strength is everything.
.......
But Ian didn't expect that this change would last much longer than he imagined.
Within two weeks of Ian's return.
He often receives invitations from various families and even some wizards, and even Ian has to choose to participate in some of them.
the other side.
It was through the lab that Ian realized just how complicated it was to choose a pharmacist.
Choosing this will offend that, choosing that will offend this.
Ian immediately sensed the pressure Vivian usually felt.
So he decisively passed the pressure on to Vivian.
Ask her to help with the selection.
Ultimately, Ian chose three people.
One person comes from the Iron Shirt family, one of the three great families of the Wizarding Academy; another person's family is related to Vivian; and yet another person is a second-generation wizard whose grandfather was the previous vice minister of the Plant Magic Department!
None of them were ordinary wizards.
However, it also brought him some benefits, including two hundred magic stones, and the last one allowed him to receive some assistance when purchasing magic plants.
They gave very little.
However, the gains were considerable.
The laboratory was established quickly, and none of the three were unruly; they were all very obedient.
This made things much easier for Ian.
In addition, we hold regular meetings.
Ian's seat naturally moved from the third row to the second row.
You can even see Hal not far to the right.
Speaking of Hal.
After Ian advanced to the training sequence, Hal invited him to a party once.
It was located in an inn in a market not far from the school of thought.
Ian naturally refused outright.
If it were an academy, that would be one thing, but inviting him to a school of thought outside of it clearly indicates ill intentions.
This led Ian to make a decision.
Once we have enough strength, the first thing we'll do is kill him, otherwise he'll be a problem sooner or later.
.....
A week later.
To Ian's surprise, he even saw Lucy again.
"This is an apology from your family. We hope you won't hold a grudge about what happened before."
Lucy pursed her lips and handed over a bag.
When Ian opened it, he saw that it contained one hundred magic stones.
"I'll accept it."
Ian nodded.
Why not take the free magic stones?
Both sides are even!
"OK!"
After delivering the package, Lucy turned and left without saying another word.
Ian didn't seem to feel anything and turned back.
the other side.
Soon after Lucy left, a wizard followed her.
"Miss Lucy, you should have apologized to Ian and tried to make amends!"
The wizard asked cautiously.
"I sincerely apologized in person."
Lucy looked a little awkward, but she still spoke.
As required by her family, she should apologize to Ian in person, and they even hoped she could humble herself and get closer to him.
She initially agreed, but when she saw Ian, she couldn't bring herself to speak.
"In the end, he's just a wizard who isn't even a second-rate wizard!"
Lucy pursed her lips.
I don't think I did anything wrong.
Mental strength is the core.
One day, Ian will be nothing more than an ordinary wizard in the school.
By then, she may have already grown into someone she looked up to.
"So it's nothing!"
Lucy raised her head, as proud as ever!
She doesn't regret it!
.......
Meanwhile, after a period of time.
Ian also went to Chris again and obtained a new contract.
The new contract was unexpected by Ian.
The magic stone remains the same, but Ian will receive a certain amount of Silvermoon Spring Water, a mid-level water-attribute material with zero rings.
Ian tested it.
It was enough to overcome the material needed for his rune condensation.
The material Mickey provided was very simple: his feathers, which were full of wind properties and were of quite high quality.
It seems like just a blink of an eye.
Ian already possesses the materials for both types of rune condensation.
Another half month passed.
Ian met the members of the mutual aid society.
The group remained close.
But Ian could also clearly sense that there seemed to be a distance between them, especially between Emily and Ian.
She was naturally very grateful to Ian, but seemed a little more reserved than before.
Ian was helpless.
But he was powerless to change it.
After that, Ian resumed his normal studies: witchcraft, meditation, runes, potions...
In the blink of an eye.
A year and a half has passed.
