Wizard Immortal

Chapter 73 Mission

After standing still and looking around, Adir finally turned his gaze to the stone slab in front of him.

As Adir's gaze fell upon the stone slabs, lines of writing appeared out of thin air, revealing the contents of the slabs.

"Hmm, assisting Instructor El with a certain experiment...acquiring ten units of Nemophila...inspecting the academy..."

Adir's gaze swept quickly forward, lingering on each stone slab as he examined the tasks within.

"Chip, record mission information."

After looking at it for a while, he directly ordered the chip in his mind: "Organize the mission information, remove those with too little benefit, and transfer the rest over."

In an instant, a flood of information rushed into my mind.

Adir closed his eyes, silently recalling the information in his mind, and began to slowly compare them.

"Acquiring Nemophila takes too long. Although the purchase price for one plant is five magic stones, it is too hard to find."

"Clearing out dangerous creatures around the academy is something I can consider. Although it's a bit dangerous for apprentices, I myself possess the strength of a peak Great Knight. As long as I'm careful, my safety shouldn't be a problem. Moreover, if I encounter some rare life forms, it could be a considerable income."

Standing there, Adir silently pondered, feeling a sudden surge of interest.

He didn't make a decision immediately, but continued to look at each task, thinking about them one by one, trying to select some that suited him best.

Suddenly, an idea struck him.

"Buying large quantities of Awakening Potions, four magic stones per bottle."

Awakening potions are a common type of medicine, used not only by apprentices but also by wizards, to accelerate mental recovery.

For wizards, the strength of their mental state is extremely important. In ordinary times, whether it is meditation, practicing spells, or even constructing wizarding templates, mental energy is frequently depleted.

This energizing potion not only accelerates mental recovery but also has a certain healing effect on mental damage, making it a widely used potion for wizards.

Looking at this task, Adir's heart stirred, and he continued to look at the other tasks.

The tasks posted here include many that involve acquiring certain potions or enchanted items, and the rewards are often quite generous.

"The profits from potions and enchanted items are quite substantial."

After a while, having reviewed all the mission information in his mind, Adir pondered: "I have also learned about the potion preparation process. It is said that not only does it require an extremely thorough understanding of the medicinal materials and prescriptions, but it also demands extremely high precision and is very difficult to master."

"In this respect, I possess memory chips, which should give me an advantage over others."

Thinking about this, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He needs magic stones right now. If he could master the skill of potion making, it would undoubtedly change his current awkward situation. At the very least, it should solve the problem of the magic stones he needs to learn.

"Let's give it a try. I remember there are some free courses on pharmacy at the academy. I'm not too busy right now, so going to class won't be a problem."

After thinking it over, he made a decision and then quickly walked to the side.

In one corner, a middle-aged apprentice dressed in a black robe stood calmly, reading a book.

"What kind of mission do you want to take?"

At a distance of about four or five meters, the other party spoke calmly.

"I want to take on the two tasks of inspecting the academy and tutoring the force field class."

Arriving in front of the other person, Adir pondered for a moment before speaking.

Both of these tasks were decisions he made after much deliberation.

Although patrolling the academy is time-consuming and carries a certain degree of danger, the rewards are relatively greater compared to other missions.

As for tutoring, it involves privately teaching some apprentices to help them master knowledge that they haven't grasped in class. Although the speed of acquiring magic stones is relatively slow, the time consumed is not much, which is within Adil's acceptable range.

"what?"

Upon hearing Adir's words, the black-robed apprentice sitting in front showed a hint of surprise on his originally calm face and couldn't help but look up at Adir.

Neither of these tasks is easy.

Uraldor Academy is unlike any other place. As a wizarding organization, it is located in a dangerous, uninhabited area. Moreover, because the academy has a large number of wizards and apprentices, the various radiations and magical reactions emitted easily attract terrifying creatures sensitive to magic, requiring periodic cleanup or expulsion.

As for the task of tutoring in the Force Field course, it is not easy either. Although it is not as dangerous as the previous one, the Force Field course is one of the most difficult subjects, and very few apprentices can master it during the apprenticeship stage. It is not easy to teach others either.

Turning around, he paused slightly upon seeing Adir's appearance, and it took him a while to react: "Are you sure you want to accept these two missions?"

He looked at Adir and said somewhat uncertainly.

"Of course, do I need to take a test first?"

Adir nodded first, but after seeing the other person's surprised expression, he asked in return.

"No need for that." The black-robed apprentice shook his head, then took some documents from the wooden table next to him and registered them on it.

"The reward for patrolling the academy is paid directly by the academy—five magic stones per month. You need to patrol every day and report back periodically. Understand?"

Seeing Adir nod, he paused, then continued, "As for the teaching assignment, since it's a private bounty, they require you to give three days of free trial lessons, about six hours in total. Only if they are satisfied will they pay the tuition and you begin formal tutoring. Any questions?"

"No problem," Adir replied calmly.

After registering his information, he wandered around for a while to familiarize himself with the layout before leaving.

The next day, just as dawn broke, Adir got up and walked out of the academy.

The area of ​​the Uraldo Academy is very large, so the so-called "inspection of the academy" naturally cannot be the inspection of the entire academy area, but rather each person is responsible for inspecting a corner of the academy.

Carrying the credentials from his patrol mission, Adir took out a yellowish map from his waist after leaving the academy guards.

He bought this map last night; it shows the terrain around the entire academy and cost him one magic stone.

After observing the map for a while and understanding his destination, Adir put it away and began to travel quickly.

With his current physical condition, even without sprinting at full speed, he would be faster than riding a horse, and would be able to walk much faster in this deserted area.

He walked for more than an hour before stopping by a river.

"This is it."

Adir took out the map from his waist, compared it for a while, and then said this.

Beside the river stands a small wooden house that looks quite old from the outside.

This is the resting place for the apprentices stationed in this area, and sometimes they can stay overnight if necessary.

Stepping into the wooden cabin, the interior was fairly intact, with all sorts of furniture. If one ignored the dangerous surroundings, one could easily live here.

However, around the cabin, Adir keenly noticed some dried bloodstains, which, according to the chip's analysis, should have been left just a few days ago.

The patrol mission must be carried out periodically. Before Adir, the patrolman of this area was a second-class apprentice who was said to have encountered an accident during his patrol and was attacked by some dangerous creatures. His remains were eventually found around the cabin.

After staying in the cabin for a while, Adir put down some supplies he had brought from the academy before going out to prepare to begin fulfilling his duties.

Unlike the route we had taken earlier, this area was now outside the academy, making it much more dangerous than the area inside.

Adir wasn't walking very fast. As he walked, the chip in his mind was also working rapidly, constantly analyzing the external environment and detecting any potential dangers.

After walking for a while, Adir stopped in front of a large tree.

Before them stood a large tree that required two people to encircle it, and beneath the tree were dried bloodstains and a few black hairs that looked like needles.

"Unknown odor molecules detected."

In my mind, the voice of the chip machinery echoed.

"Can you identify what kind of creature it is?"

Hearing the notification from the chip in his mind, Adir asked.

"Compare with the database: Gammoor Wolf similarity 78.7%, Amal Man-eating Wolf similarity 58%..." In an instant, the chip in his mind responded to Adir.

Are wolves dangerous creatures?

Standing there, listening to the comparison results of the chips, Adir muttered to himself, "It's a pity that I haven't reached the second-level apprentice level yet, so I can't learn those reconnaissance spells. Otherwise, I could have tried to track them down based on these traces."

"However, as long as they don't leave this area, they'll come looking for me sooner or later."

Because meditation requires the absorption of energy particles, wizards and their apprentices often carry a certain amount of high-energy radiation.

This radiation is harmful to ordinary people, and prolonged exposure can directly damage their lives, but it has a strong attraction for high-energy organisms.

As long as Adir stays in the wild, his aura will eventually attract the other party.

With that thought in mind, Adir got up and continued walking towards other places.

On the road, through the chip's keen observation, they would occasionally encounter some medicinal herbs. Although they were often not very valuable, there were some that were quite valuable, which Adir still carefully collected.

This was an unexpected gain during his patrol, and for Adir at this time, it was a source of additional income.

The entire perimeter of the academy was divided into many areas. The area that Adir was responsible for patrolling was not very large. With his speed and the assistance of the chip, he could complete the patrol in just two or three hours.

After completing his inspection, Adir returned to the cabin to rest for a while before quickly embarking on his journey back to the academy.
