Wizard Earl

Unaware that Margaret had already arrived in Frosinone and thoroughly investigated him, Connor Ferguson was currently on Mount Hisaya, making final adjustments to the energy array prepared for Varga's breakthrough.

Five days ago, Connor Ferguson received the cultivation resources from Isabella at Ferguson Manor. After confirming that the resources were safe and that Isabella and her group hadn't tampered with them, Connor began preparing for Varga's next breakthrough on Mount Hisaya. With the help of the auxiliary chip, Connor's idea of ​​using the Gintosh Magic Crystal as the core of the energy-gathering array, despite some setbacks, was successfully implemented.

Looking at the magic stones scattered around him, Connor, who had already adjusted the energy-gathering array, nodded slightly, preparing to begin the first and possibly last experiment with the Gintosh Magic Crystal Energy-gathering Array. Unlike other magic arrays, the energy-gathering array could not be reused. Each use of the energy-gathering array required the consumption of thousands or even tens of thousands of magic stones, so very few people could afford to experiment with it.

If it were just a matter of setting up a normal energy-gathering array, Connor would naturally not need to experiment and could perfectly set it up based on his experience. However, because Connor improved the energy-gathering array by using the Gintosh Magic Crystal as the array's core, it was a very bold and creative innovation.

Although several simulation experiments have been conducted on the model constructed with the auxiliary chip, simulation experiments are still different from reality. Moreover, this is for Varga, who is very important to Connor, to use in breaking through to the first level of wizard. In addition, Connor has acquired tens of thousands of magic stones at the Blue Stone Auction and in Zivkovich's space ring, so he has abundant cultivation resources, enough for Connor to conduct several energy gathering array experiments.

Under these circumstances, it is imperative for Connor to test the Gintosh Magic Crystal Energy Array to ensure its effectiveness and safety, even at great cost!

Despite having conducted numerous simulations on the auxiliary chip, Connor still felt somewhat nervous when it came to the actual test. Taking a deep breath, Connor adjusted his state and then, under his control, cast a series of spells to gather energy. Under the effect of these spells, pure energy overflowed from the magic stones arranged in the energy gathering array and condensed within the array.

Sensing that the energy concentration within the energy-gathering array had reached his desired level, Connor shifted his gaze to the center of the array, its core. There, the multicolored Gintosh Magic Crystal lay quietly. Compared to when it first came into Connor's possession, the Gintosh Magic Crystal now possessed an alloy base engraved with various runes. This alloy base was crucial for the Gintosh Magic Crystal's integration with the energy-gathering array; with it, the Gintosh Magic Crystal's effects would be maximized!

"Kuritesa... Endoraines... Gusat... Paratici..."

Watching the colorful transformations of the Gintosh Magic Crystal, Connor began chanting a deep incantation. Compared to the rapid and concise chanting during battle, Connor's chanting was now very slow. Moreover, to ensure the effectiveness of the incantation, Connor pronounced each character perfectly, without making any minor mistakes.

As Connor chanted his incantation, the multicolored light emanating from the Gintoan magic crystal became even brighter. Connor's mental power could clearly feel the energy condensing within the energy-gathering array gradually transforming from ordinary energy into Gintoan magical energy under the illumination of the Gintoan magic crystal's multicolored light.

Upon seeing this change, a smile finally appeared on Connor's face. Although everything seemed to be progressing in the right direction and there would be no unexpected events, Connor did not end the experiment prematurely just to be on the safe side. Instead, he insisted on waiting until the Gintoan Magic Crystal had converted all the energy in the energy-gathering array into Gintoan Magic Energy, and the experiment was a great success before ending the experiment!

"Can the auxiliary chip estimate how much the Gintosh Magic Crystal Energy Concentration method improves the breakthrough for Varga compared to traditional energy concentration arrays?" Connor asked the auxiliary chip in his mind with a smile.

"Beep! In accordance with the will of the subject and combined with the subject's database, it can be confirmed that the Gintosh Magic Crystal Energy Gathering Array is 311% more effective than the traditional energy gathering array!" A few seconds after Connor asked, the cool female voice of the auxiliary chip rang in his mind.

Having received the 311% answer from the auxiliary chip, Connor's smile grew even brighter. He believed that with the help of his Gintosh Magic Crystal Energy Array, Varga would definitely be able to successfully break through to become a Level 1 Wizard this time!

Three days later, the weather was fine and sunny on Mount Hissaya. Varga, arm in arm with Connor, strolled on the grass, basking in the sunlight.

Holding Varga's soft, boneless hand, Connor kept giving her instructions. Varga just smiled and listened to Connor's words. Judging from his expression, Connor seemed to be more nervous than Varga, the main character!

"Valga, you've memorized the control incantation and spell for the Gindoan Magic Crystal Energy Gathering Array. When you begin your breakthrough, activate the array to absorb energy. At the most crucial moment, take the potion you prepared to help you!"

"When the mystical incantations appear, Varga, remember not to be careless. The intensity of the mystical incantations during your breakthrough will be incomparable to the ones you encounter during your regular cultivation and as a wizard apprentice!"

"But Varga, you don't need to worry too much then. You just need to take out the thing I prepared for you, activate it, and then just stay calm and don't act impulsively. The mysterious whispers probably won't affect you much!"

"Valga, if it really comes to a point where things are beyond saving—and I mean if!—Valga, please don't force your way through. Even if you fail this time, you're still young, you'll have another chance. Don't be reckless. I'll be right outside protecting you..."

Listening to Connor's endless admonitions, Varga could clearly feel Connor's feelings for her. Looking at Connor's angular face, she whispered, "Connor, if I successfully break through this time, I'll agree to your relationship with Margaret!"
