Wizard: Starts with Advanced Meditation

"Whoosh—!"

The following morning, with the help of levitation, Hughes flew at high speed and finally arrived at the experimental area on the top floor of the Fugri Spire.

At this moment, Jak and the others had all taken their positions, and even Ysera had arrived, standing in front of the glass dome talking to the spirit Milro.

"Hughes, you're finally here, but why do I always feel like you're the last one to arrive?"

Gack walked over, his large hands already covered with lab gloves.

"Haha, there was a little accident at home."

Hughes shrugged and brushed it off.

"By the way... where did Leibni go?"

He looked around and realized that Leibni was nowhere to be seen. Only Jak and Lawrence were standing around, as well as Ysera, who was talking to a spirit.

"Oh, you mean Leibniz?"

Gack stroked his thick beard, a signature gesture he made when he was thinking.

"It seems he has something to attend to and can't come, according to Lady Ysera."

He was quite puzzled by Leibni's absence.

After all, if it were him, even if all the high-class taverns were free today, he would absolutely not want to miss such an important occasion.

But Hughes wasn't surprised to hear this, after all, as Leibniz's former student, he knew very well that the other party always seemed to have his own things to do.

Fortunately, the most labor-intensive part is over, and Ysera is now mostly involved in this final fusion process.

Meanwhile, Ysera's conversation with Milro also came to an end.

"Then, Lord Milro, we will soon begin the process of merging you with the Secret Source."

Ysera glanced at Hughes, who had arrived from behind, and then gave him instructions.

"How are you feeling right now? Is your soul structure still stable?"

Milro remained motionless, not even opening his mouth, yet he spoke out of thin air:

"I feel great, Lady Ysera. Please begin, for I have been here for two full days."

Although the spirit did not feel tired, the monotonous days of being locked in a glass case and unable to do anything were undoubtedly the most agonizing for him, for whom time was knowledge.

"Okay, I understand."

Ysera nodded, then turned to look at the three who had arrived.

"Today is the most crucial day for our Fugri Spire; success or failure hinges on this moment."

She said loudly.

"Leibni is tied up with other matters and cannot be there to assist, so your task will be more challenging, but I don't want you to slow down because of that."

Upon hearing this, Hughes and the others immediately agreed.

As if by unspoken agreement, all three of them looked toward the spirit Mirro inside the glass case after agreeing.

The other party probably doesn't know that Isela's purpose in completing this experiment was not simply to report the results to the Spire of Heusvan.

She also wanted to acquire an obedient second-level wizard; that was her ultimate goal.

Even if she successfully "replicated" the real-name ice element life form this time, she probably wouldn't report it.

After all, this was not copied from the knowledge system of the Fugri Spire, but synthesized from the existing wizard souls.

From beginning to end, this experiment was nothing more than a means for Ysera to disguise herself as a "Fogris Spire Researcher" in order to apply for spiritual resources from the Academy.

Of course, this time the spirit wasn't something I begged for...

This is why, in previous experiments, they all managed to reduce the rationality of the spirits to a certain extent.

After all, only in this way can the ice elemental life forms created be more easily controlled.

But Milro was already a spirit before this, and he was a volunteer member of the academy, so they naturally didn't dare to do anything underhanded.

This is one of the reasons why Ysera will participate in the entire fusion experiment later; after all, she can do some tampering here.

"..."

Soon, the experiment officially began.

Hughes took the large lab coat that Jacques handed him and put it on.

Since this involves a level two soul, there's a high probability that unexpected situations such as soul tremors will occur soon.

This simple lab coat can protect them from spiritual shocks.

He said that if conditions allowed, Hughes really wanted to steal one.

After all, this robe can provide constant protection against attacks on the soul, simply by wearing it.

Unfortunately, he still had to hand in the robes after the experiment, and each of them was also engraved with tracking runes.

Then, Hughes, wearing a lab coat, walked to a device next to the glass dome.

Meanwhile, Gack and Lawrence also took their positions.

This is their usual work station for conducting fusion experiments. Through the device next to the glass cover, they can monitor the fusion status in real time and adjust some parameters.

As for the position that originally belonged to Leibni, it was naturally handed over to Ysera.

"Let's begin."

She said.

Upon hearing this, Hughes pulled down the lever in front of him.

"Click—"

The next moment, the pipes between the two glass domes opened rapidly, but this time the suction was directed towards the source of the secret.

After all, this time, it was Milro, the spirit, who took the initiative to merge with the Source.

"Buzz... Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

Soon, accompanied by a suction force targeting the spirit, the dark blue source of secret energy in another glass dome was also slowly sucked into the pipe.

It was a massive, dark blue, humanoid particle entity, absolutely the largest secret source Hughes had ever seen.

This was the secret source that Ysera herself synthesized, reaching the second level of strength.

Unfortunately, this is ultimately not the wisdom of a true name.

For example, right now, it only resisted instinctively for a moment before being obediently sucked into the glass dome on Milro's side.

"roar!!"

The next moment, accompanied by a roar from the source, its fusion with Milro officially began.

Milro took the initiative to embrace the Source of Secrets, and because their soul structures had become similar after the adjustments made by Hughes and the others, they quickly became entangled together.

To be precise, it's their material possessions.

The humanoid source trembled slightly before disintegrating into countless dark blue particles.

Milro, on the other hand, gradually decomposed into transparent soul energy from bottom to top.

His face was calm, but there was a clear hint of joy in his eyes.

As they decomposed, a soul shock that almost materialized suddenly erupted.

"Thump!"

The glass cover shook, making a dull sound.

It successfully withstood most of the impact, but a small amount still broke through the glass cover.

"Waaah—"

Hughes felt a weight on his body, but not physically; rather, it was mental.

Fortunately, the lab coat protected him from any harm.

Meanwhile, the blue particles had become entangled with the translucent soul energy.

More accurately, they are two different forms of soul energy.
