Chapter 236 Choice
What kind of "rules" should you choose as your main research goal in the long road ahead?
This is a crucial issue for any wizard who has stepped into the second level, and it can even be said to determine his future destiny.
Because it is directly related to a wizard's future development potential and ultimate achievements.
Of course, this doesn't mean that wizards can't study multiple rules at once.
In fact, many great high-level wizards master several or even dozens of different types of law powers at the same time.
However, based on the development experience of wizard civilization over the years, which has been summarized through massive data statistical analysis, it is best to specialize in only one core rule before being promoted to a level six wizard.
What's more, in fact many people simply do not have the energy or the talent to study the second rule.
Therefore, most wizards would usually appear extremely conflicted and embarrassed when faced with this question from Dean Avery Knight.
However, contrary to Dean Avery Knight's expectations, after the initial shock, Benjamin and David simply looked at each other and responded extremely quickly and decisively.
"Dean Avery Knight, I wish to obtain the origins of the four elements' rules!"
The two of them expressed their needs almost in unison.
After hearing the two people's answers, Dean Avery Knight couldn't help but reveal a smile of approval on his face, which had always remained calm.
He looked at the two young second-level wizards in front of him and saw considerable confidence in the eyes of these two little guys.
The "Four Elements" are earth, fire, water and wind, which are the basic rules of these four elements.
In the entire wizarding civilization, it can basically be said to be the most popular and most studied rule.
Even the college database has the largest number of relevant teaching materials and research papers.
After all, among the nine ninth-level wizards standing at the pinnacle of civilization, six of them mastered core rules related to the "four elements".
However, the answer from Jermyn and David seemed a bit... too general.
Under normal circumstances, a wizard who truly needs to rely on the origin of the plane to help him break through the bottleneck of research will very specifically state which system of rules and origins of the four major elements of "earth", "fire", "wind" and "water" he needs.
There will even be requests to extract more detailed branches, such as the "explosion" branch under the "flame" rule, or the "gravity" branch under the "earth" rule.
But they didn't say it.
It was just a general request for "the four elements are related".
This clearly shows one thing - they do not intend to rely primarily on this source to improve their knowledge.
They want to rely on their own abilities to observe, learn, and study the rules personally!
The reason why the origin of the rules related to the "Four Elements" was chosen is most likely because this type of origin is the "hard currency" with the widest circulation, the best market, and the easiest to exchange for other resources in the wizard's internal market!
Theoretically speaking, there are really no substantial side effects of using the plane origin to assist in promotion.
It will not damage your soul, nor will it limit your future development.
However, problems are likely to arise at the "psychological" level.
People are all lazy.
After experiencing the easy and simple process of using the "Origin of the Plane" for infusion, which was like an epiphany.
In the future, when you encounter a bottleneck in research again and rack your brains to find a solution, deep in your heart, you will unconsciously once again turn your hopes to the convenient tool "Origin of the Plane".
But when it comes to studying "laws", you can indeed take shortcuts.
But for other aspects, such as the construction of witchcraft models, innovation in alchemy, exploration of the essence of the soul, etc., there is no such convenience.
In the long history of wizard civilization, there are many once-genius wizards who, because they were unable to adjust their mindset, eventually became addicted to the convenience brought by the "origin", resulting in their final achievements being far below their expectations.
This is the instinct of living things to seek benefits and avoid harm.
No matter how clearly your mind tells you not to rely on others, your subconscious mind will still be affected.
Therefore, wizards have different attitudes towards using the "Origin of the Plane" to advance.
Some people think it doesn’t matter, power is power, it doesn’t matter how it is obtained.
Some people regard it as a formidable enemy, believing that only knowledge gained through hard work, step by step, on their own is the most solid and truly belongs to them.
Others think that we need to adjust our mindset and treat it as a very useful tool, but we must never rely on it too much.
Therefore, Dean Avery Knight didn't have much to say about the choice made by Jamin and David.
After all, wizards are never used to interfering with the paths chosen by others.
He just admired the confidence and persistence of the two little guys.
After thinking for a while, Dean Avery Knight suddenly added:
"What I said just now wasn't very clear."
His voice remained calm, but the words he spoke stirred up a storm again.
"Because this time the target plane not only has level eight creatures, but it appears there are more than one. This means that the value of this plane is much higher than we initially expected."
"Following the most fundamental wizard principle of 'equivalent exchange,' your merit and rewards for discovering this plane must be increased accordingly. This time, I intend to give you not the usual 'one strand' of 'Plane Origin,' but 'ten strands'!"
"So..." The dean's gaze fell on the two of them again. "You'd better think about it carefully again. Do you really only need the origin related to the 'Four Elements' rules?"
Upon hearing this, Benjamin and David widened their eyes in surprise!
They didn't expect that the dean would be so generous!
"Thread" is the basic unit used in the wizarding world when conducting transactions on the "origin of the plane".
Generally speaking, the law information contained in a strand of the "Origin of the Plane" of a standard single rule is enough to allow a wizard who knows nothing about the rule to increase his comprehension progress from 0 directly to 0.1%!
This number sounds small.
However, according to the requirements for wizard promotion, that is to say, if a second-level wizard with ordinary talent can obtain "a ray" of origin, then he can definitely be promoted to a third-level wizard without any bottleneck!
After all, the accumulation of mental strength can be achieved over time, but the accumulation of knowledge really depends on personal ability.
Ten strands of origin mean that a wizard's understanding of a single rule can directly reach one percent!
This means that the reward offered by Dean Avery Knight is enough to ensure that a second-level wizard is promoted to a fourth-level wizard!
Although there is only a difference of one level from "Level 3" to "Level 4", its meaning is a world of difference!
Such a huge gap is indeed worthy of their careful reconsideration.
Just like David standing next to him, after hearing what Dean Avery Knight said, his determined eyes now began to show obvious hesitation and struggle.
However, Benjamin didn't seem to think about it carefully.
His answer was as clear and concise as before: "Yes, Dean. I still want the origin of the rules related to the 'Four Elements'."
Upon hearing this, Dean Avery Knight and David looked at him in surprise.
Then, a hint of admiration appeared in their eyes.
That was the sincere admiration for Benjamin's determination and decisiveness in pursuing his own path.
Especially Dean Avery Knight, as a high-level wizard, he knows very well that for wizards, whether to use the origin is not an important issue.
The most crucial thing is whether a wizard truly understands what path he wants to take and whether he is determined to continue on this path.
On the premise of having sufficient qualifications, as long as you can walk on your own path firmly enough and have a strong and pure heart that is not moved by external things, then even if you have used the origin, there will definitely be no problems in your mentality.
It is obvious that Benjamin is such a wizard.
David seemed to be inspired by Benjamin's determination, and his hesitant eyes instantly cleared up.
He took a deep breath, made up his mind, and said to the dean, "Dean, I'm the same way. I also want the origin of the rules related to the 'Four Elements'!"
On the contrary, Benjamin, who was looked at with such admiration by the two of them, blinked in confusion.
For a moment, he didn't react to why these two people looked at him like that.
After all, the reason why Jieming made such a firm choice, besides the fact that he had already determined what rules he wanted to study from the beginning, there was another more important reason...
That is, he knew that the "rules" and related knowledge that he really wanted to study in depth could not be provided by a normal material plane!
Therefore, from the very beginning, Jeming’s positioning of resources such as the origin of the plane was very simple, that is, hard currency used to exchange for other materials!
It can be said that this thing is a universal resource that is not inferior to high-level military merit!
Dean Avery Knight nodded with great satisfaction at the performance of the two young men.
"very good."
He said, "Then you can go back and rest now. Refining the plane's origin will also take some time. Probably... in a dozen years, I will personally deliver the reward to you."
After hearing what was said, Benjamin and David bowed respectfully to the powerful dean again to say goodbye, then turned into streams of light and left the sea area that was still busy with the "demolition" work.
