I'm doing daily quests in Wizarding World

Chapter 96 Genius (Part 3)

The wizard tower in front of us should also be listed in the catalog.

Lynn compared the wizard tower in front of him with the wizard towers he had seen in his mind, and quickly found two wizard towers that looked very similar.

"No need to guess. I referenced that predecessor when designing my wizard tower. I should be the one that came later, if there aren't any similar new wizard towers later on." Xiao Ye saw Lynn's expression and wondered what he was thinking, because he had the same feeling when he first saw Mabel Tessa's Elf Mother Tree Wizard Tower.

When her thoughts were guessed, Lynn couldn't help but cover up her embarrassment with a smile.

Following Owl Night into the Wizard Tower, Lynn gained a general idea of ​​the more than 500-page Wizard Tower catalog.

Perhaps what is recorded there is not necessarily all the wizard towers since the founding of the Abyss Wizarding Academy, but it definitely includes traces of most of the wizard towers from a considerable period of history.

The older and more ancient the wizard's tower, the more terrifying its historical significance must be if it still exists.

After all, for most wizards, their power comes from wisdom and knowledge.

Upon entering the wizard tower, Lynn saw its internal structure; the space inside was much larger than it appeared from the outside.

It likely uses spatial folding technology, which is commonly used in wizard towers. Lynn also plans to add spatial folding technology to his wizard tower, and this technology requires materials containing spatial power.

Lynn looked around and saw that the layout resembled a tenement building, with an open space in the middle that led directly to the top.

Numerous branches extend from the walls on both sides, and nests are built on these branches.

As soon as they sensed Owl Night's arrival, a large number of black crows suddenly flew out of the nest. Countless black crows fell like a storm, and even Lynn, who was standing next to Owl Night, was covered with crows. These crows were not large, only the size of a palm, with blood-red eyes and noisy voices.

Furthermore, Lynn sensed that these crows were filled with magical energy, suggesting they were magical creatures.

"Alright, let's go back." As soon as Xiao Ye finished speaking, all the crows returned to their nests, and the surroundings returned to silence.

Xiao Ye led Lynn inside and opened a door.

Push open the door and go inside.

The surrounding scenery changed, and before me was a huge room laid out like a laboratory.

"This is a bottle of blood, containing 999 drops, but one of them is mutated blood."

"If you can extract the only mutated drop of blood from these thousand drops within three minutes, you will pass the test."

Xiao Ye picked up a bottle of blood from the table.

"You can use any of the other materials and tools on the table."

Lynn looked at the desktop, where various materials and tools were thoughtfully arranged on the material shelf with labels.

"My research is related to blood. If you become my assistant, your biggest task every day will be to find the right blood from countless types of blood," said Yexiao.

"So if you can't pass, then forget it."

Lynn glanced at the materials and tools on the table, said nothing, and silently walked forward. He used the suction tube to draw a drop of blood from the bottle, then skillfully picked up the materials and equipment on the table. With his constant adjustments, a bottle of light blue potion and a bottle of red potion were quickly prepared.

Lynn first poured the pale blue medicine into her bloodstream.

Soon, the bottle of blood turned pale purple.

At the same time, Lynn took out a fogging device and covered the bottle full of blood.

Lynn then poured the red potion into it, and the blood inside quickly evaporated, producing a thick white mist.

A moment later, only one drop of blood remained in the bottle.

Xiao Ye gave Lynn a deep look, took the bottle, and smelled it. "That's right, you passed. You only took one minute and thirteen seconds. Can I hear your thought process?"

"It's very simple. I took out a drop of blood and then used that drop as a template to concoct a special antidote for this type of blood," Lynn said.

"Just pour the neutralizing potion into it and then evaporate this drop of blood. Mutated blood cannot be evaporated by the neutralizing potion."

"Of course, if that drop happens to be mutated blood, it will also be absorbed by the mist suction device."

A fog absorber is a common experimental instrument in wizarding laboratories, used to absorb the fog generated by the evaporation of certain reagents.

"Your technique is very skillful. You really have only been a wizard for less than two years?" Owl Night looked at Lynn.

"Yes," Lynn nodded.

"To become a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice in just two years, and to possess such skill, shows that your research in mutation and bloodline studies is quite advanced. You couldn't have concocted that potion without knowledge of bloodline studies. I saw in your profile that you only specialize in alchemy and mutation, but it seems you also have a certain level of expertise in bloodline studies. You truly are a genius."

Xiao Ye was generous with his praise.

He was very satisfied with Lynn, his experimental assistant.

"Alright, the experiment starts tomorrow. I still have some materials that haven't arrived yet," Xiao Ye said. "Let's go, let's chat for a while. If you have any questions, you can ask me."

Xiao Ye brought Lynn to his living area.

Owl Night's living area is somewhat like a "nest," surrounded by circular walls, with thick, soft wood shavings covering the ground.

These wood chips don't feel sticky or prickly on your feet; instead, they feel like stepping on warm cotton.

The walls, ceiling, and even the wood chips underneath were decorated with many warm orange lights.

The central area is a large, slightly concave, round bed, covered with a thick quilt woven from feathers.

"Let's go to the terrace." Xiao Ye quickened his pace and led Lynn to the lounge inside.

The layout of the lounge was a bit too cold, with two chairs and a small table.

One wall is lined with bookshelves, and the other wall is filled with cabinets containing a lot of collectibles—many of which are shiny things.

However, Lynn was still recalling the scene inside the room.

Lynn pursed his lips, not daring to laugh out loud. He couldn't believe that the Nightshade Wizard had such a warm heart beneath his cold exterior.

Because the living area is the place that best reflects another side of a wizard's heart, and as a place for them to relax, it is definitely decorated in accordance with their inner aesthetics.

Considering her previous encounter with Anglie, Lynn suddenly felt that the male wizards she had met all seemed to have a bit of a repressed passion and a contrasting personality.

Of course, Lynn did not conclude that Owl Night and Anglie were gentle and kind people because of this.

The people who became experimental subjects in that little cabin are still vivid in my mind.

Gentle as she may be, she shows no mercy when it comes to killing.

"Have some pastries." Xiao Ye patted the table, and a blue light flashed across the surface.

A Bachoff sprite appeared on the table.

"Bring some specialty pastries," said Xiaoye.

"Yes, Master."

The Bakhov sprite vanished in a flash, only to reappear on the table moments later.

He held up a huge plate with both hands, which was filled with white cookies that smelled of butter.

"Try it, a local specialty from my hometown," said Xiaoye.

Lynn looked at the milky white cookies on the plate. He examined them closely and realized that the shape of the worm on the cookies wasn't drawn on, but rather a plump white worm coated with white butter on both sides and then baked.

The taste of cream and the tangy juice from the bursting insects blend together, creating a surprisingly sweet aftertaste.

Lynn remained silent, and out of respect for the local customs, she ate several pieces in a row.

"Bring some other desserts." Owl Night summoned the Bakhov sprite, and soon the desserts served were all normal.

"Witcher Owl Night, I've been here for a while now. Why isn't the Abyss Wizard Academy a campus where many apprentices study together? Instead, it's structured like a city," Lynn asked, voicing his doubts.

In his mind, a college, a college, since it has the word "college", there must be a series of standard teaching buildings.

Then many wizard apprentices would go to the teaching building every day or periodically to listen to wizards' lectures; this was the standard wizarding academy in his mind.

Although he had heard that some formal wizards would occasionally give lectures, he always felt that he was left to his own devices.

"The kind of ordinary wizarding academy you're talking about does exist," said Owl Night. "But this is the Abyss Wizarding Academy."

"What kind of people do you think come here?"

"I heard from them that the Abyss Wizard Academy has high requirements, and many apprentices want to come here. Those who can come here must be extraordinary apprentices," Lynn said, sharing his opinion.

"That's right, your answer is correct. The wizards who can come here can be roughly divided into four categories." Owl Night raised his four claws on his right hand.

"The first type is those with connections. These people receive education from a young age; they either learn the basics at home or can learn them from books."

"The second type is racial recommendation. That's what I did. Our Black Raven clan from this plane joined the Abyss Wizard Academy a long time ago, and our tribe paid a great price to get me the opportunity to study here," Xiao Ye said frankly. "We are usually from other races. To get me here, our race spent a lot of money from a young age to hire wizards to teach me the relevant knowledge and bought a lot of books for me to read. I imagine the situation is similar for other races."

"The third option is to participate in the Blood Battlefield. The Abyss Wizard Academy has a place called the Blood Battlefield, which is modeled after the Abyss Blood Battlefield. However, it is also very dangerous. As long as you can consistently rank in the top 100 of the points leaderboard in the Blood Battlefield for a year, you can obtain a place as a student in the Abyss Wizard Academy. Most of the participants in the Blood Battlefield are wizard apprentices who lack talent, but the wizard apprentices who can fight their way out of there are extremely fierce and are at least level three wizard apprentices."

"The fourth type is students like you who joined the Abyss Wizard Academy through other channels. You all have great talent, and many of you already have a foundation."

"Becoming a first-level wizard is the end point for many wizards, the ultimate goal in life, but for the Abyss Wizarding Academy, what they want to cultivate are not the old-fashioned, bookish first-level wizards who can only recite from the book after leaving the academy."

"If you want to become an apprentice of an old-fashioned scholar-type wizard, you should go to a place like the Tower of Wisdom. It's the closest place to the abyss. It's called the City of Demons. From the apprentice stage, you must learn to use any means necessary to acquire all the resources that can help you grow," Xiao Ye said meaningfully.

"The rules of the Demon City are strict, but also lenient. You can use any method you can think of, even be a little daring."
