Clinging to the Witcher world to become a god of martial arts

"You have two months. If you fail to become a wizard apprentice, then I'm very sorry, but your fate will be to become human subjects for wizards to study in that black tower."

Lorne sat on the wooden bed, recalling what the guide of the Black Sun Tower had said to him and Theodore.

The Black Sun Tower has no reason to accept two commoners unless they demonstrate the potential to become wizards.

But two months is far too long for two ordinary people who have never encountered anything extraordinary.

It's like changing a death sentence to a two-month reprieve...

Lorne knew perfectly well that only by performing exceptionally well could he get a reduced sentence. He glanced at the two tattered paper books in his hands and felt a great deal of pressure.

One of them is titled "The Black Sun Meditation Method," and the other is titled "The Basics of Herbal Medicine Identification."

These are two occult books provided free of charge by the Black Sun Tower.

The first step to becoming a wizard apprentice is to accumulate mental strength and open up the mental sea.

The enhancement of mental strength depends on meditation or mental amplification potions.

By continuously enhancing mental strength through meditation, and then drinking the appropriate magical potion, one can help open their mental sea more quickly.

The making of potions requires various medicinal materials, which is the significance of these two books.

However, relying solely on meditation, it is absolutely impossible for me to open my spiritual sea within two months; I need the help of magic potions to have a chance.

But each different potion has a price tag, and I'm currently penniless...

The wizard's power defies common sense; while teleporting Lorne and Theodore to the Black Sun Tower, the white-robed witch healed their injuries.

"I must become a wizard..." Lorne opened the door to the room.

Rows of domed wooden houses, almost identical in style, stand in the distance.

This is the outer area of ​​the Black Sun Tower.

Lorne's gaze swept across the residential area and landed on the inverted, cone-shaped black tower at the far end.

What kind of being created such a spectacle?

That is the core area of ​​the Black Sun Tower, and only those who have become official wizards are qualified to enter it.

The black, conical spire pierced the earth, its broad base reaching the clouds, shrouding the sky and casting the shadow of a colossal object.

The scene was like a toy being carelessly stuck upside down on the ground... Lorne felt a chill run down his spine.

The exterior area of ​​the Black Sun Tower is very large and is divided into major functional areas.

The southern part of the Black Tower was primarily a social and residential area, mainly providing accommodation for wizarding apprentices, as well as meeting places such as markets, banquet halls, and exchanges.

Adjacent to the living and social area is the resource area, which is actually an undeveloped and dangerous area. It is easy to find precious medicinal herbs there, and extraordinary creatures dwell deep within.

Inside the Black Sun Tower, all outside currencies have no purchasing power; the only circulating currency is the Magic Crystal.

Lorne needs a spirit-enhancing potion, so acquiring magic crystals is urgent.

Sigh... It's already dark today. I'll try to find some time another day to go to the market and see if there's any way to get magic crystals... Having made up his mind, Lorne began to worry:

I wonder how Theodore is doing.

The two were assigned to different residences, quite far apart, which meant they would not be able to visit each other frequently.

Lorne was worried that this not-so-bright curly-haired boy wouldn't be able to handle the immense external pressure.

But since things have come to this, let's focus on ourselves first...

Lorne brought up the control panel.

Lorne Holt

Age: 17

[Occupation: Martial Artist]

[Talent: Breath of Nature, Fist Bone]

【掌握武学：吐纳术lv4（276/800），三叠劲lv3（0/400）】

[Attributes: Constitution 5, Strength 6, Agility 7, Spirit 0, Magic 0]

[Attribute Points: 0]

[Expansion Points: 0] [Martial Arts Library]

The attribute points gained from upgrading the Breathing Technique to level 4 were quietly added to Lorne's Strength while confronting the white-robed witch.

Of these five attribute points, aside from Constitution, Strength, and Agility, two are unrelated to martial artists: Spirit and Magic.

But both of these are closely related to wizards.

Lorne had a premonition that when his mental attribute reached a certain value, he would be able to open his mental sea.

Stat allocation, meditation, and mental enhancement potions...

With three things going in parallel, Lorne believed he could become a wizard apprentice within two months, even with zero prior experience.

The first thing is to allocate skill points... Becoming a wizard apprentice starts with practicing martial arts!

Lorne felt something was off, but he went back to the wooden bed and began to meditate and practice breathing exercises.

The proficiency of the Three-Fold Power technique is currently difficult to advance, as using it in the form of shadow fighting is too damaging to the body, mainly due to the lack of suitable training equipment.

Gaining experience in breathing techniques is much easier; it only requires stillness, is simple, and requires no brainpower.

[Complete one breathing exercise (Excellent), experience points +10]

[Complete one breathing exercise (Excellent), experience points +10]

[Complete one breathing exercise (perfect), experience points +20]

...

Above the Excellent rating is the Perfect rating. Under the Perfect rating, martial arts skills can be used to gain a full 20 experience points, which is twice as much as the Excellent rating.

Also relying on his perfectly rated breathing technique, Lorne's breathing technique level improved very quickly:

【吐纳术lv4（800/800）】→【吐纳术lv5（0/1600）】

[Attribute Points +1]

【吐纳术lv5（1600/1600）】→【吐纳术lvMax（0/3200）】

[Attribute Points +1]

After nearly half a night of sitting cross-legged and practicing breathing exercises, Lorne's breathing technique had reached its highest level.

There will be no further level increases, and no more attribute points can be gained beyond that.

He decided to put it aside for the time being and grind his experience points to the maximum when he had free time.

No thought is needed when using attribute points: Spirit 0 → 2.

Side effects followed.

My head felt like it had been hit by a blunt object, bringing a wave of dizziness and throbbing pain.

My vision gradually blurred, and my consciousness became hazy.

Spiritual power is one of the core strengths of a wizard's cultivation, representing the strength of the soul and the resilience of the mind.

Without proper refinement, directly increasing the strength vertically will cause a rejection reaction in the body.

This has far greater side effects than improving physical attributes.

As long as the increase in strength attribute is based on a matching constitution value, it will not produce any side effects.

The improvement in physical and mental strength is absolutely devastating; one tears the body apart, the other tears the soul apart.

Lorne sternly warned himself: If you have attribute points, you should improve your physique and spirit first.

Other attributes can be temporarily boosted, but these two cannot.

Despite the intense pain, Lorne maintained a calm mind and planned his next move.

Currently, I am not completely out of danger. Only by becoming a wizard apprentice can I survive in the Black Sun Tower.

The most needed item is the currency in the Black Tower: Magic Crystals.

Without magic crystals, any plan becomes extremely difficult to implement.

Secondly, he sought out a Knight Breathing Technique within the Black Tower to verify his hypothesis: could the so-called Knight Breathing Technique be organically integrated with the Breathing Technique?

In the next two months, I must do everything in my power to accumulate strength as quickly as possible...

Lost in thought, the physically and mentally exhausted Lorne fell into a deep sleep.

Since he came into this world, he hasn't had a single night of peace and quiet.
