Wizard Tower.

Second-floor study.

After Dud left, Xia Jian went upstairs and took out all his books.

Looking at the books scattered on the ground, these were all the spoils of Xia Jian's previous hunting of wizards, and some were obtained before he became a formal wizard.

During the summer, after careful selection, all the books that were useless to her were placed on the bookshelf.

After all, how could a wizard who owns a wizard's tower not have his own collection?

If it weren't for the fact that there were many stolen items among them, Natsumi would have even considered taking out those useless props and equipment for an exhibition.

Even so, the large number of first-tier wizards killed in the Lin Ya Ruins, along with some apprentice-level knowledge, filled most of the bookshelves in the study.

"This is……"

Looking at the remaining tattered books, Xia Jian raised an eyebrow slightly.

Xia Jian had already sorted through all the items obtained from hunting wizards, but this remaining pile was not from hunting wizards.

"I wonder if Bro took anything good out of the ruins."

Thinking back to the scene when they were chasing Bro, these books were left behind by Bro at that time.

Bro wasn't exactly honest back then either; he didn't produce the Brilliant Star and the Key to the Relics even at that crucial moment, clearly indicating that Bro had his own agenda.

If he hadn't been forced into a corner, Bro would probably have messed with the Brilliant Star, or even switched it out.

It's also possible that they'll abscond with the money and have no intention of returning to Neil Bella.

Summer sorted through the old books, finding their contents to be very disorganized, including wizard travelogues, astronomy and geography, biological analysis, and even detailed explanations of rune arrays.

Unfortunately, most of the books are in a terrible state due to their age, and the blurry fragments make it impossible to determine their specific contents.

After finishing organizing the books, Xia Jian's eyes were filled with sighs.

"There is surprisingly no record of the Brilliant Star."

Although he didn't know the use of "Skill Points", the Brilliant Star was undoubtedly very important to him.

It would be truly embarrassing if, in the future, you learned how to use "Skill Points" but couldn't acquire them.

Actually, Natsumi originally thought that "Technical Points" were a kind of high-concentration energy, but after last night, Natsumi realized that he was wrong.

Last night he tried to draw on the elemental power in the elemental pool, but not only did he not get what he wanted, he also suffered a backlash from the elemental pool.

Fortunately, he activated the array of the elemental pool in time, shielding the elemental power within it; otherwise, he would have almost become a full-fledged wizard who had brought about his own demise.

However, it wasn't entirely fruitless. Among a pile of useless books, Xia Jian found books that were currently useless to him as well.

A book on special formations that can open up the void.

Xia Jian knew very little about the void.

Judging from the few words I gleaned from the books I acquired, it was a desolate and empty place.

Herammons once said that the predecessor of the Linya Ruins used the Brilliant Star to extract energy from the void, which clearly indicates that the elemental power there is very concentrated.

If I need it in the future, I might be able to get what I want from it.

Of course, the prerequisite is to obtain the Brilliant Star first; without the Brilliant Star, even opening the void is of little use.

Moreover, he knew too little about the void, and no one knew if there was any danger inside. Before doing this, he had to understand what the void was.

Next, Xia Jian categorized all the books, leaving the useless ones on the bookshelves and putting the useful ones in his spatial bag.

Otherwise, if we encounter a situation like the last escape, and fail to take anything useful with us, that would be truly disastrous.

…………

In the days that followed, Xia Jian studied at Damons Academy while simultaneously cultivating and improving his strength.

Xia Jian found it strange, however, that Dude had never come to see him, and he hadn't even seen Dude during his rune literature classes.

To avoid being exploited by those with ulterior motives, Xia Jian did not want to openly search for Du De.

After all, wizards aren't exactly good people, and if someone uses Dodd to their advantage, it could be very detrimental to him.

However, as time went by, Natsumi quickly put the matter out of his mind.

…………

A month later.

Cow Head House.

Xia Jian lay on the bed, her dazed eyes gleaming with an unusual light.

At this moment, a wooden sword slowly floated in mid-air, and around the wooden sword was an array formed by dozens of semi-transparent runes.

As the wooden sword began to tremble slightly, the runic array suddenly contracted and merged into the wooden sword.

Summer slowly raised her hand and gently fiddled with it.

As if receiving instructions, the wooden sword slashed across the empty ceiling, and instantly a huge, semi-transparent sword aura erupted from it, piercing through the roof and shooting out of the house.

Wood chips mixed with pebbles fell on him, and Xia Jian suddenly woke up with a start.

Looking at the roof, which was mostly destroyed, they had no idea what had happened.

What are you doing?!

Before Xia Jian could figure out what was going on, Mu Shuang's dragon-like roar came from downstairs.

Xia Jian sat up abruptly from the bed, while Mu Shuang had already stormed to the door.

"Hey, let me explain..."

Xia Jian hurriedly tried to explain.

Mu Shuang bared her little tiger teeth with a fierce expression, then pounced on Xia Jian like a hungry tiger, pinning him down and giving him a good beating.

After beating Xia Jian for half an hour, Mu Shuang's anger subsided a little.

"Fix the roof for me, or else..."

Seeing Mu Shuang about to kick Xia Jian in the crotch, Xia Jian, with a bruised and swollen face, reflexively covered his crotch.

If this thing is broken, he might as well commit suicide and start over.

"snort!"

Mu Shuang glared fiercely at Xia Jian, then turned and strode away.

After Mu Shuang walked away, Xia Jian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then he muttered resentfully, "It was your own fault for not setting up a defensive formation, what does it have to do with me?"

After all, as a fourth-tier wizard, how can he be blamed for living in a place without even a tower spirit?

Moreover, the house is of poor quality; it broke down without him doing anything, and he has no one to complain to.

"What did you say?!"

Mu Shuang's head peeked out from the edge of the door frame.

"No, no, I said you are the most beautiful woman in the world."

Seeing this, Xia Jian quickly put on a smile and said apologetically.

"Damn it, I can't stand the sight of you anymore!"

This time, Mu Shuang did not listen to Xia Jian's slander and couldn't help but barge into the house and beat Xia Jian up again.

After Mu Shuang left, Xia Jian, lying on the ground, was on the verge of tears.

"Mu Shuang is becoming increasingly ruthless; she must be going through menopause!"

Of course, this time Xia Jian only dared to complain in his heart.

Moreover, he had to wait for Mu Shuang to leave and couldn't make eye contact with her, otherwise she would definitely be detected by his "mind-reading" ability.
