Wizard Immortality

Chapter 9: Changes丨Promotion to Wizard Apprentice

"Has it been a year? Time flies."

Sigs' tone was a little melancholy.

She looked at the decadent Vic, and her thoughts seemed to go back to the past.

After a year of study and experience, she is now an apprentice of a wizard, but the stunning young man who made her still unable to let go is still a mortal.

Hiding under the bridge and living a miserable life.

But she didn't come here to laugh at Vic today, she just wanted to take a look at her old friend.

Vic said, "What's up?"

“Reeves died, and a month ago, Uncle Obel died.

Yesterday, a family letter came in saying that my father had a heart attack and fell asleep and never woke up again.

Sigs' voice was calm, but she couldn't hide her sadness.

These things, just as the first-level wizard Athos taught her on her first day of class, there is an iron rule in the wizarding world that no one can shake.

The principle of equivalence.

If you want to get something, you must pay a price equal to it, and no one can exceed that price.

Her talent in the wizarding world is so strong that it is difficult to describe it with words like "good" or "bad". To paraphrase Athos, there has been no one like her in the hundreds of years since the Black Tower Academy was founded.

But from the day she embarked on the path of a wizard, people kept dying around her, and those who cared about her and loved her kept leaving her.

It seemed as if this was the price she had to pay.

Reeves was the young knight who had questioned Vic.

If Vic guessed correctly, Sigs must have paid a heavy price for Ober's current condition.

The human body has been modified to this extent.

The average suturist can't do it.

The stitcher is one of the six major professions of wizards, and its knowledge system corresponds to the realm of life and death.

To become a qualified suture artist, talent alone is not enough. Practitioners need to be proficient in several disciplines related to the field of life and death, as well as some other interdisciplinary disciplines.

Anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, pharmaceuticals, etc.

Regarding the wizarding profession, Vic plans to develop in the direction of alchemist after being promoted to wizard apprentice.

In this way, you can earn soul stones and accumulate knowledge and resources for future studies.

The truth is revealed in the details.

Sigs was willing to pay such a high price just so that Ober could stay with her for a little longer.

In other words, this girl is a nostalgic person.

but.

After thousands of years of baptism in the previous life, Vic's heart in pursuit of the wizard truth is as solid as a rock and difficult to shake by external things.

Looking the girl straight in the eye, Vic said, "My condolences."

Sigs nodded slightly and said, "A month ago, I constructed the first knowledge system in my spiritual body and was promoted to a wizard apprentice.

So, I have my own laboratory in Black Tower College, if you need anything, I can help you."

The girl's meaning was very clear.

If only Vic would speak.

She would definitely apply to the Education Department to allow Vic to work in her laboratory so that he wouldn't have to sleep in the bridge tunnel every day.

But Vic's direction is clear and firm, and he will not waste precious time on low-yield work for trivial matters.

He bluntly rejected Siegers's kindness and said, "I'm fine now."

Seeing that Vic was unmoved, Sigs was obviously disappointed, because this was not the ambitious and secretive boy she met that night.

But she did not force it. Instead, she took out a black-covered notebook from her alchemy ring, handed it to Vic and said, "This is what I have learned during this period of time.

Don't refuse yet.

You took care of me when the team came to the academy a year ago, and you deserve it."

Vic was quite surprised by this.

For a wizard, experience and knowledge are the most valuable assets, which cannot be given to others for free.

but.

This time Vic didn't say no.

He would not look down on what a wizard apprentice learned in the process of learning knowledge just because he was a sixth-level wizard in his previous life.

On the contrary, Vic takes it very seriously.

And with his life experience, it is not difficult to see that Sigs came here to say goodbye to him.

He took the notes from Sigs with both hands and said, "I owe you a favor, Sigs."

The girl didn't say anything else, just glanced at Vic and turned away.

In fact, she wanted to say something else.

After this, she would leave the academy for a long time, hoping that after Vic got the notes, they could meet again as wizards one day in the future.

But when the words came to her lips, Sigs didn't say them. She thought such words might hurt Vic's self-esteem.

After Sigs left.

Vic sat on the floor and opened the notebook the other person had given him.

The knowledge and experience contained in it have a certain energy, so they require the use of specially formulated ink with corresponding mysterious properties.

The notebook pages are yellowing.

Sigs's handwriting is beautiful and soft.

On the surface of the rich ink-colored text, dark purple energy pulses flow at a high frequency.

It records how Sigs built a knowledge system of frost witchcraft from scratch.

Because it uses a lot of knowledge in the field of creation.

Vic couldn't remember or understand most of it, but Siegs made good use of the property that heat can be conducted through different objects.

By evacuating heat from an area, frost forms.

This process is different from the transformation between phases in the field of change.

Knowledge in the field of creation is counterintuitive.

This process is the flow of heat from a low-temperature object to a high-temperature object.

Siegs may have known that Vic's talent was temporarily unable to understand the knowledge in the field of creation, so after being promoted to a wizard apprentice, she also left some introductory knowledge to learn alchemy.

Alchemist is one of the six major professions of wizards and corresponds to the field of change.

Although the entry-level knowledge of alchemy cannot be used to construct witchcraft, it can enhance the energy intensity of Vic's spiritual body.

Increase strength.

The notes mention the method of making a basic alchemical ring.

It contains two disciplines: metallurgy and secret etching.

Alchemical rings are the most common storage equipment in the wizarding world. Depending on the materials used and the knowledge of the maker, the size of the internal storage space will vary.

If he had Siegs' notes as support, when Vic sold the alchemical ring, even if someone doubted the source of his alchemical knowledge, he would have enough reasons to explain.

Keep your notes.

After Vic went to the college's restaurant for dinner.

He planned to purchase a batch of supplies at the academy and then secretly promote wizard apprentices in the wild.

Because in the process of becoming a wizard apprentice, the mental magnetic field will be out of control.

When an ignored wanderer is suddenly promoted to a wizard apprentice, it is hard not to think that Vic has the heritage of a powerful wizard hidden in him.

Vic is well aware of the complicated nature of the people in the academy, and he does not have a strong identity or background. If he is targeted by someone with ulterior motives, he will be very unsafe.

The money for purchasing supplies was left by Aaron when he visited him.

Three gold coins mixed with copper are enough.

Two months later.

Deep in the uninhabited mountain area one hundred kilometers away from the Black Tower Academy, the wizard's spiritual magnetic field when he broke through turned into a terrifying vortex that could distort everything.

Material within a few meters of Vick was either melted or weathered.

Subsequently.

Everything is calm.

It took Vic more than a year and three months to be successfully promoted to a wizard apprentice.

He picked up a dead branch from the ground.

Without any kindling, the dry branches spontaneously began to burn in his hands, with flames roaring.

This year, Vic was in his early eighteen years old.
