The Wizard: Starting as a Corpse Burial Man - An Infinite Side Hustle

A wizard's apprentice?

Upon hearing this voice, An Su was instinctively startled.

Then the [Job Panel] was brought up.

Then I saw the specific information about this profession.

[Profession - Wizard Apprentice]

Job requirements:

By deducing new knowledge, the Mystic attribute has been increased by 20 points (achieved).

By using mystical methods to modify other beings, their various attributes are increased by a total of 20 points.

(Current progress: 13.55/20)

Knowledge - Ether Meditation Lv.3 (This knowledge has not yet been acquired)

Knowledge - Spell Construction Lv.1 (This knowledge has not yet been acquired)

Transformation, meditation, and magic.

These are all knowledge closely related to the profession of wizard.

Ansu glanced at all the job requirements for a wizard apprentice.

Improving the attributes of the modified individual isn't difficult; it just requires spending more resources on the giant beetle. The other two attributes, however, will only be learned after formally joining the wizarding academy.

An Su thought to herself.

But he didn't intend to just pass the 30 tests and join the wizarding academy without any additional rating.

Instead, they are preparing to continuously improve their proficiency in various areas of knowledge.

While continuously modifying the giant beetle, try to complete as many battles as possible in the assessment area.

This allows you to earn more points.

Until you reach the Stars rating and Blood Moon rating.

Even the darkest rating is only available for each region.

If we receive the extra resources from the Dark Sun rating.

Even if you encounter an ancient wizard or go to a planar battlefield after that.

The chances of survival will also increase significantly.

Ansu thought to herself, and then put away the job panel.

Then he continued to invoke the soul link between himself and the Shadow Element Bone Dragon.

It was instructed to use its paintbrush-like tail, causing the newly mixed paint to adhere to the paintbrush tail.

Then, under Ansu's indirect manipulation, the paint was smeared on both sides of the giant beetle's body.

The moment the two came into contact, due to the special properties of the alchemical pigment, the alchemical pigment fused with the carapace.

Then another series of crackling sounds rang out.

Soon, amidst the soft rustling sounds, the giant beetle's carapace began to extend to both sides.

However, it is not a random distortion, and what grows out is not just a pure shell.

It's scales.

Just like the white scales near the dragon horns on the opponent's head, which contain the bloodline of the white dragon.

Followed by.

As it continues to grow, the giant beetle develops more and more white dragon scales.

Until it completely transformed into a pair of wings covered with pure white scales.

Giant beetles also joined the ranks of dragon-blooded creatures.

Although it is not a pure-blooded dragon, it is enough to greatly enhance the power of the dragon's might.

Furthermore, when combined with bone powder derived from bone staves contained within the pigment material, it can produce an even stronger effect.

It could even grant it the ability to launch missiles.

Although the dragon-blooded giant beetle was already quite strong, Ansu was still not satisfied.

He wants to get the Dark Sun rating reward in this assessment.

The current dragon-blooded giant beetle alone is absolutely insufficient to achieve this.

Ansu continued to formulate new types of alchemical pigments that could be used to modify the dragon-blooded giant beetle.

At the same time, they also used the alchemical pigments that had been prepared previously.

Thus, on the carapace of the giant dragon-blooded beetle, a scroll of painting-style spells that could be combined with the opponent's bloodline abilities were drawn.

As it was continuously modified, the other party's appearance also changed accordingly.

Scales containing dragon blood grew all over its body, and its eight legs transformed into dragon claws.

Even the shape of its head is becoming more and more like that of a real dragon.

Another hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Amidst the roaring sounds, the assessment area expanded once again.

As it continued to expand, an ice field terrain enveloped by an invisible barrier was created.

next moment.

Accompanied by spatial fluctuations, the giant dragon-blooded beetle also appeared in the Ice Primitive's assessment area.

Alongside it appeared a shark with sapphire-blue armor and four legs.

However, its shape appears somewhat translucent.

But it continues to solidify over time.

At the same time, the ethereal voice entered Ansu's mind once again.

Opponent: Ice Elemental Garchomp

[Base points: 300]

[Bonus points are subject to change]

[Battle Begins]

As soon as the ethereal voice finished speaking, the ice elemental land shark was fully formed.

The next moment, it immediately began to move its four limbs, which had hooves.

It then charged headlong toward the giant dragon-blooded beetle.

At the same time, in the instructions transmitted by Ansu through the etheric link, the giant dragon blood beetle also invoked its dragon might.

This activates the painting-like spell scroll on the carapace.

The moment activation was successful, a large number of spider rats appeared.

Along with them appeared a group of rat-like summons with dragon wings that allowed them to fly.

As soon as the summoning was completed using the painting-type spell scroll, the giant dragon-blood beetle immediately protected the numerous summoned creatures in front of it.

It slowly flapped its wings, which were covered with dragon blood scales, and flew into the air, getting further and further away from the ice elemental land shark.

At this moment, Ansu and the ice elemental Garchomp are separated by a barrier.

But Ansu could also sense the power of this shark, which wore ice elemental armor and had four horse legs.

It's at least stronger than the previous three goblins.

Therefore, Ansu decided to change the fighting style of the Dragonblood Giant Beetle.

Combat style related to newly acquired bloodline abilities.

So not long afterward...

Amidst rustling sounds, numerous rat summons arrived at the Ice Elemental Land Shark's side, either by flying or by running.

Then they launched attacks against it through various means.

But this is different from the situation when attacking goblins before.

The ice armor on the surface of the ice elemental land shark is extremely strong; even if the spider rat tries its best to bite, it can only leave small pits on it.

Fortunately, the Ice Elemental Garchomp doesn't have dexterous hands, nor does it have any weapons.

Moreover, Ansu also created quite a few rat summons with the ability to fly this time.

Therefore, the Ice Elemental Garchomp could not easily end the battle and could only continue to entangle with these hundreds of rat summons.

The armor, formed from condensed ice elements, was continuously being gnawed away.

Not long after, a group of rats successfully gnawed a hole in the ice armor.

Then, amidst a neighing sound like a wild horse, a piece of flesh was pulled out from it.

The Ice Elemental Garchomp's defenses have been broken.

But just a moment later, the ice elemental Garchomp activated other areas of its ice armor.

This caused a large amount of ice elements to converge at the gap in the ice armor.

Soon after, the hole disappeared.

The ice armor has just become a little thinner.

During this period, more than ten rodent summons were transformed into ice sculptures due to the erosion of ice elements.

Unable to move.

The ice elemental land shark raised its hooves high.

Then, with a loud 'bang,' he stomped down.

In just a moment, it turned into fragments.

The number of rat summons is also decreasing.

Therefore, Anzu no longer simply ordered his rat summons to try and break the ice armor of the ice elemental land shark, as he had done before.

Instead, they focused on interfering with the opponent's actions, preventing it from getting close to the dragon-blooded giant beetle.

at the same time.

The dragon-winged rat, which had indirectly torn off the flesh of the ice elemental Garchomp, flapped its wings rapidly, thus moving away from the Garchomp's location.

Then it flew leisurely through the air.

They continued until they reached the location of the giant dragon-blood beetle, which was also in mid-air.

The next moment, the giant dragon-blooded beetle opened its mouth.

This revealed numerous sharp fangs adorned with intricate runes.

Without the slightest hesitation, the Dragonwing Rat threw the flesh and blood of the Ice Elemental Land Shark directly into the mouth of the Dragonblood Giant Beetle.

For an instant.

The numerous runes painted with special alchemical pigments on the fangs immediately glowed faintly.

This allowed them to analyze the information contained within this piece of flesh and blood.

As time went on, the analysis progress began to slowly improve.

On the battlefield, the ice elemental Garchomp relentlessly slays the rat-like summons created from the painting-type spell scroll.

Under the erosion of the ice element, a large number of rat summons turned into immobile ice sculptures.

Then, under the heavy stomping of the ice elemental land shark's hooves, it turned into a pile of shattered ice.

At this moment, the giant dragon-blooded beetle is focused on analyzing the information about flesh and blood.

Therefore, the painting-type spell scroll on the shell cannot be invoked again.

Therefore, over time, the number of rat-like summons has decreased.

Until nearly two minutes later.

The number of rat-like summons was reduced to only one-third of its peak.

The information inside the dragon-blooded giant beetle was also successfully deciphered.

Information collection complete.

Now, it's my turn.

Seeing that the analysis was complete, Ansu immediately invoked the etheric connection between himself and the dragon-blooded giant beetle.
