Chapter 40: Intermediate Wizard Apprentice



After coming out of the pharmacy, Duolai was not in a hurry to leave. He had been wandering around in the mountains for the past few days, and his clothes were torn again. He needed to buy a few more sets of clothes as backup.

After knowing that there are still many wild wizards in Domon City, Dolai has a new understanding of the control of the Supernatural Society. They recognize wild wizards, but not dark wizards. Once discovered, they will be sentenced to death. This is Dolai's current concept of the Supernatural Society.

Of course, it’s one thing for them to care, but it’s another to appear before them and commit suicide. You should try to stay away from them as much as possible.

After staying in the slums for one night, I arrived at the city gate early the next morning and walked out of the city.

Just at this moment, he saw a small group of people coming from the crowd in the distance. They were sweating profusely and pushing a large cart full of stones towards the city.

At the back of the cart, Feller sat at the front with an excited look on his face, shouting and directing the disciples beside him.

Seeing this, Dolai narrowed his eyes, then turned around and walked out of the city without looking back.

He quickly disappeared into the mountains.

This transaction brought him about 15 gold coins, but he spent 14 gold coins on other herbs and some auxiliary herbs he needed, and another 50 silver coins on clothes, seasonings, alcohol, etc., leaving him with only 50 silver coins left. 15 gold coins seemed like a lot, but for a wizard, it was still too little.

They walked all the way, over mountains and across rivers, and did not return to the cave until the afternoon, when they continued their plan of refining medicine.

Although the hallucinogenic potion had been successfully produced and he had some stock on hand, he needed to prepare a few more for backup. The next step was ordinary poison, drugs to be applied on the body to conceal the aura, and mental herbs. Refining the real primary mental potion was the top priority.

I recently read the biography of Naluye, which gave him a lot of inspiration. He is no longer as passionate as he was in the past. He needs a very careful plan before he can act silently.

Soon, ten days passed in a flash.

Dole held a test tube in each hand, a black test tube on the left and a green test tube on the right. He shook them gently. After about a minute, he poured the liquid in the two test tubes into the glass container at the same time. The two liquids mixed and soon formed a dark green liquid.

**No movement, no smoke, no bubbles, it was as if they merged into each other.

Seeing this, Dole breathed a sigh of relief, he succeeded.

The black one is poison, which can cause a huge load on the heart, causing it to burst. The green one is a hallucinogen, which can produce hallucinations. He mixed the two together and when he poisoned someone, it would give people the illusion that this person had taken hallucinogenic drugs and scared himself to death.

The next step is to conduct experiments, verify your guesses, and then change the measurements.

There are many kinds of creatures in the mountains. He needs to catch some creatures for experiments to verify how much dosage is needed, whether his ratio is correct, and whether it can work. This requires experiments on creatures.

It's a long process.

Dolai had a new course, "The Hunter's Self-cultivation", and the book appeared at his door the next day, as well as a bow and some materials for making traps.

When I saw these things, my wish to ask Lord Bal to help me catch some small animals was immediately swallowed back.

Dole grew up in the slums. Before he was ten years old, he had almost never left the city. After he was ten years old, he had to work to earn money, but he never thought that one day he would need to hunt for a living, although during this period, he did rely on some small tricks to obtain a lot of food.

For wizards, they don't need to hunt, they just need to refine some things that the prey want to eat and attract them. So Dolai just took a look at the book, flipped through it a few times, put it down, and refined something new.

Potions that can attract small wild animals, wild animal bait.

Therefore, he had to go back to the city again and buy some things that were not available in the mountains. The trip back and forth took him two days.

Time slowly turned to summer.

It was not hot in the mountains, but rather cool on the top. Dolai hid in the cave with his bare chest, but he did not sweat at all.

He picked up a small green bottle, drank the liquid inside, then closed his eyes and entered the sea of ​​consciousness.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, twenty-six copper coins were neatly arranged in a row, which looked quite spectacular.

At this moment, an external cool force poured into his sea of ​​consciousness. Dolai hurriedly mobilized his mental strength and incorporated this force into his reminder, forming the twenty-seventh copper coin.

This is a standard first-level mental power potion. Different from simply taking herbs in the past, the effect of the medicine is stronger, about five times stronger. At the beginning, one bottle of potion could increase two copper coins, but later, one bottle could only increase half a copper coin. Now, after drinking a bottle, one can only feel a slight influx of cool air.

Dole didn't take hallucinogenic drugs because that stuff was too dangerous. It wouldn't be too late to drink it when he breaks through.

Soon, the effect of the medicine wore off, and the twenty-seventh copper coin grew only a little bit, and its outline could almost be seen clearly.

At this moment, he felt something strange in his mental power, and a wonderful rhythm flashed through his mind.

At the same time, the twenty-seventh coin increased at a speed visible to the naked eye, then the twenty-eighth, the twenty-ninth, and all at once to the thirty-th copper coin.

Dole was shocked.

The breakthrough was unreasonable. He had prepared the hallucinogenic potion and was ready to take it at any time, but he did not expect that he would naturally advance to the intermediate level of wizard apprentice without taking it.

Dorae was silent for a moment, then opened his eyes.

Baal's dog head appeared in front of him, seeming somewhat confused and somewhat relieved.

"You've made a breakthrough." He said in an affirmative tone.

Dolai nodded and said, "Yes, I am now an intermediate wizard apprentice."

Bal hummed and said, "It's fine once you get there. According to your current progress, you will be able to become a senior wizard apprentice by the end of the year. If you are lucky, you will be able to become a first-level wizard before you are fifteen."

The corner of Dolai's mouth twitched, "So slow?"

Bal sat down and snorted, "You have good talent, which is already very good. You have to know that some people can't become a first-level wizard in their entire lives. And I mean that if you are lucky, you can enter the first level. If you are unlucky, you will be a high-level apprentice all your life."

Dolai frowned. "So difficult?"

The expression on Baldog's face was very rich, as if he was disdainful, nostalgic, or even sneering. "Becoming a level one is the first leap of life. Only when you officially come into contact with this huge world, you are qualified to enter a more advanced stage. Below level one, in fact, they are all the same, all ants, all cannon fodder. If you can't become a level one, your life is short, and decades will pass by in a flash. Only when you become a level one can you have the chance to live forever."

Dolai stared at his pockets. These things were not in Naluye's biography.

"Intermediate wizard apprentices are useless. Apart from being more perceptive than beginners, they are more sensitive to the outside world, and are helpful in adjusting potions and making alchemy. Their combat effectiveness is almost not improved. But it will be better when they reach advanced levels. Advanced wizard apprentices can extend their mental power to the things they touch, and use some props to achieve magical effects. You humans call it zero-level magic, but it is actually far from real magic."
