Chapter 100 Preparation for Promotion (Fourth update, please subscribe!)
Although the contribution statistics are too simple and crude, at least the list is out.
As for why the list is updated for so long...
The reason is very simple.
After all, every time the list is updated, a level 7 destiny wizard has to be found to "die".
In the entire Norn Workshop, there are only a dozen or so Fate Wizards of this level, which really cannot support too frequent changes in the rankings.
The impact of this list is also huge.
All the apprentices checked the list immediately.
Less than ten days had passed since the earliest launch date, and many apprentices had not even had time to open their businesses.
And Benjamin's battle record data was quickly synchronized to the workshop's total contribution list almost at the moment the wizard's shadow disappeared.
The name "Jeming" from "Noren Academy 13" went from being unknown to the apprentices. Like a rocket, he instantly surpassed tens of thousands of apprentices and began to rush to the top of the list at an alarming speed.
Even in a short period of time, it has entered the top ten.
The changes in the rankings were like a hurricane, instantly sweeping across all wizard apprentices in the entire Elosia plane.
Augusta was resting in the ruins of a razed orc tribe, and her eyes passed through Jemin's name like a knife.
When she saw the rocket-like rise in the rankings, her eyes, which were already full of fighting spirit, were now like two balls of thunder burning.
She gripped the staff tightly in her hand and growled in her heart, "Jereming... you really did something again! Very good! This is more interesting!"
The competitive desire to prove oneself has reached its peak at this moment.
David Shixin, who had just wiped out an entire elven tribe, saw Benjamin's name instantly surpass his own from the bottom of the list. A sinister smile appeared on his rugged face:
"Ha! This Jieming? Interesting! That's interesting! This is how a wizard's battlefield should be, with strong men constantly emerging and competing with each other! I want to see how high you can jump!"
He swung his giant axe violently, splitting a towering tree beside him in half, as if venting his excitement.
Seraphina Nightshade whispered in the shadows, her emotions barely discernible: "Interesting..."
Her gaze from beneath the hood seemed to penetrate the vast distance, silently calculating something.
Keilan Vanya pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, his eyes sparkling with curiosity.
He looked at Benjamin's astonishing improvement on the list and muttered to himself thoughtfully, "To have achieved such a high contribution in such a short period of time, it seems I was too conservative before. Hmm... I have to work harder. Perhaps I can try to construct a new element array to improve efficiency."
From within Rex Magnus's alchemical power armor, a cacophony of electronic calculations echoed. His calm voice emanated through the visor: "Analysis Complete: Target 'Jermin''s' Contribution Acquisition Efficiency Preliminary Assessment: Abnormal. Further observation and in-depth modeling of its behavior patterns are required."
Noren Workshop Headquarters, inside the monitoring hall.
Several high-level wizards were staring at the constantly changing ranking data on the main screen.
"Oh? This kid from Academy 13 is rising in the rankings very quickly." A wizard wearing a monocle stroked his beard, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
Another wizard put down the information in his hand and said approvingly, "Jeremy... that name sounds familiar. It seems that his actions are very efficient. He has made effective contributions so quickly. He is much better than those useless people who are still wandering around blindly."
In the exclusive tutor area of Nolen Academy No. 13, tutor Clark sat with several other tutors.
When he saw Benjamin's rapidly rising ranking, the stiff expression on his face finally broke into a sincere smile.
This kid really didn't disappoint him!
…
…
After crossing the vast primeval forest and the uninhabited barren plateau they had just arrived at, Benjamin and his companions changed direction and began to move forward along the mountains next to the wasteland.
Their goal is clear - to go to the more intense "front line" in the shaman's memory.
That area is not only the only way to join the wizard army, but also means there are richer resources and more high-level magical beasts and indigenous people.
To this end, Benjamin and his team started preparing on the road.
As apprentices of the alchemy department, the three of them not only used reconnaissance witchcraft but also used alchemy at full capacity to search for the materials they needed.
"By the way, I've never seen these ingredients before. Are you sure they can really be used to make potions?"
Victor watched as Benjamin picked up a seemingly ordinary monster wreckage from the ground and couldn't help but ask, "And it's not just the materials we've never seen before. We probably didn't bring the right alchemy equipment this time, did we?"
"Don't worry."
Amy, who was also studying Potions, appeared from the side, holding something that looked like monster excrement.
"Although we haven't seen these materials before, Benjamin and I have already constructed a witchcraft model for extraction, so refining the potion is quite simple."
"Easy?" Victor was even more puzzled. "Isn't Potions difficult?"
He remembered very clearly that when he was in the academy, there were too many students in the logistics department who also studied potions and lived in poverty.
It is no exaggeration to say that the difficulty of potion making is well known to every apprentice in the academy.
Benjamin stretched out his hand and aimed at the pile of monster wreckage to perform the extraction technique, carefully separating out some kind of transparent mucus from it. He then explained to Victor:
"It's indeed troublesome for apprentices who are unfamiliar with this, but for those who are familiar with it, the difficulty lies in discovering new potion formulas. Once the formula is confirmed and the extraction technique is constructed, refining potions will become quite simple."
Benjamin has studied wizard alchemy, runes, and potions in depth, and integrated them with the scientific knowledge of his previous life.
He believed that if alchemy was physics and runes were mathematics, then potions was chemistry.
Especially after he successfully constructed the witchcraft model of "extraction", making potions became a "simple" act similar to combining chemical formulas.
As long as he collects the right materials, mixes them in the right proportions, and meets the corresponding conditions, he can concoct any known potion.
Benjamin tapped the transparent mucus. "Extraction can precisely extract the elemental structure you need from any substance. From a microscopic perspective, the energy and matter of our world are all constructed in specific ways from various elements. Therefore, as long as you have a sufficient understanding of a thing or a type of energy, you can directly extract the part you need from it."
