"What is his purpose?"

"Did you take him to Wizard Marian's wizard tower?"

“…”

The second floor of the tower.

Under the halo of the first-ring witchcraft 'Covenant Oath', Nancy knelt on the ground, answering Daniel's questions one by one with sweat on her forehead.

The influence of witchcraft made it impossible for her to lie, and every question she asked would be answered instantly.

This kind of witchcraft, which is similar to "soul searching", will cause serious mental trauma to the wizard apprentice.

Once used.

It almost means that there is no possibility for wizard apprentices to become wizards.

First floor.

"Congratulations!"

Wizard Bella smiled and nodded at Carl:

"I never thought that you would be the second wizard apprentice who successfully got promoted from the Black Swamp."

"No!"

"It should be one of the only two."

Others have been abandoned by the Tower, including Nancy, who had been favored before and had the talent of a second-level wizard.

Helping a wanted criminal in the Tower to steal the mentor's property is an act that cannot be forgiven.

"The second one?" Karl's eyes moved slightly: "Omar..."

"That's right." Bella nodded, with a look of pride on her face: "With my help, Omar successfully advanced to a wizard two months ago, and is now in seclusion to consolidate his cultivation."

"If you break through sooner, you can still see her here."

"Congratulations!" Karl said sincerely, "Senior Bella is not only a master in cultivation, but also one of the best in teaching his disciples."

"Omar has found a good master!"

"Haha..." Although Bella is a woman, she has a delicate figure and appearance, but her temper is very generous.

She laughed loudly upon hearing this, looking very pleased with herself, but still said modestly:

"Omar is a good boy. Otherwise, even if I teach him well, I can't blame him for not making progress!"

Saying,

He glanced at the second floor with cold eyes.

"Actually..." Carl frowned upon seeing this: "I have already killed Hodgson who attacked me. There is no need to torture Nancy with secret methods."

"At most, she was bewitched by someone, but her future will not be ruined because of this incident."

"snort!"

Bella snorted coldly when she heard this:

"Karl, you probably don't know yet, Marian is dead."

"Ah?" Carl looked panicked and surprised:

"How come?"

"That's right." Bella said, "As a wizard of the tower, he would leave a trace of his own aura on a magic weapon inherited from the tower."

"Once a person dies, the inherited magical weapon will sense the person and locate the place where the death occurred."

Carl turned pale.

This was really frightening. He didn't know that the tower had such a method. He subconsciously asked:

"Where did Senior Marian go wrong?"

"Yunmu Hill!" Bella said solemnly, "We can't be sure of the exact location, but we can be sure that the murder site is near Yunmu Hill."

"well!"

She sighed, "If it is the high tower in the Kalim Continent, the inherited magic weapon there can even recreate the scene within a certain period of time before death and identify the perpetrator. This is also a guarantee for the disciples of the high tower to walk outside."

fortunately!

Carl breathed a sigh of relief and asked:

"Senior Bella, what you mean is... that the death of Senior Marianne might be related to Nancy? That's why you have to torture her?"

"good!"

Bella nodded heavily.

"It has nothing to do with her." At this time, Daniel, dressed in a white robe, came down from upstairs with a tired look in his eyes: "I asked carefully, Nancy didn't know that Wizard Marian had been killed, but Hodgson was very suspicious."

"suspicious?"

"Yes!" Daniel nodded, pulled over a chair and sat down: "Hodgson dared to go to the wizard tower to loot things because he knew that Wizard Marian was not there at that time."

"He even talked about how Marianne's estate would be handled after her death..."

"Even though the situation at the time seemed to beguile Nancy, how could he be so sure that Marianne was not in the wizard tower during that time?"

"That's right!" Bella's eyes lit up: "Unless he knows that Marian is dead, but unfortunately he is also dead, killed by Karl, otherwise he can ask."

Carl's cheek twitched slightly.

However, the two people's imagination saved him a lot of effort, and he didn't have to worry about other clues.

The destruction of the fragments of the divine domain would require a wizard of the third ring or above to have a chance of discovering it.

“Carl.”

After regaining his spirits, Daniel looked at Carl with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, you have successfully advanced to become a wizard."

"Don't call me senior anymore. Just call me by my name or Wizard Daniel."

The advancement from an apprentice to a wizard is similar to a college student becoming a mentor, and a former teacher becoming a colleague.

It is no longer appropriate to call me senior.

"Yes." Carl nodded: "Daniel...Wizard."

"Go ahead." Daniel waved his hand:

"Senior Vulcan is waiting for you on the fourth floor."

…………

Vulcan.

A second-ring wizard of the Earth Element of the School of Nature! He has the title of the Earth Controller!

Unlike the grey-robed wizard Addison who relied on external objects to advance, this one was promoted to the second ring based on his own abilities.

Moreover, his strength is among the top among the second-ring wizards.

In the 'resource-poor' magic forest, he could even compete with the three-ring wizards here.

"My mother is from the royal family of the Kingdom of Slo, so in theory I am also a native of the Eastern Kingdom continent."

Vulkan snapped his fingers, and a soft glow immediately lit up the room. He looked up from behind a desk full of books and said, "When I was young, I once followed my mother back to the Kingdom of Slo to attend a funeral. Since then, I haven't seen anyone from there for a long time..."

"The Slo royal family?" Carl asked, "Senior, do you have the blood of the Grand Duke?"

"Yes." Vulkan stood up, his huge body making the originally spacious room seem a little cramped:

"My mother had great wizarding talent, so she was sent to the tower, and I was born soon after."

"You probably don't know."

"The top floors of the two places do move around each other, but the frequency is not high."

Carl understood.

To ordinary people and even wizard apprentices, the two continents are unconnected, but they are different in the eyes of some people.

The long distance cannot completely block the communication between people.

"Come!"

Vulkan picked up a piece of paper and handed it over:

"Take this test."

examination paper?

Carl looked at the densely packed words and patterns on the paper, and a long-heard sense of fear came over him.

No way? After traveling to this world, I still have to take exams?

"No way, this is the rule of the tower."

As if he saw the complex emotions in Carl's eyes, Vulkan shrugged and explained:

"I need to give you a score and register you so that the people in the tower can get to know you better."

"This paper was written by Lord Aufnir, the Hundred Wise, fifty years ago. If it were in the continent of Kalim, I would be worried that you had done it."

"Although it is an old paper from 50 years ago, it covers a wide range of knowledge points and is quite classic. I think it is very suitable."

"Senior." Carl asked, "Did Omar do it too?"

"Of course." Vulkan shrugged.

"She also did this test. You two have never met each other, so there is no need to worry about leaking the test questions."

"How many points did she get?"

"I'll tell you after you've done it."

"..." Karl sighed helplessly: "Okay!"

He took the paper, sat down at the desk, took out the quill pen, and lowered his head to look at the test paper.

First there are ten multiple-choice questions.

The magical creature Howling Deer has the attributes of water and fire. Which of the following categories does its blood structure belong to? a: Special case b: Symmetrical c: Mysterious d: Alienated Which of the following does not belong to the ancient magic empire.

a: Meshket b: Sylvanus c: Holm d: Duchy of Calais

Ravendi's Flame Hell and Storm Lord's Roar are both second-level sorcery. The difference between them is...

Carl's throat rolled, the quill pen hanging in the air trembled slightly, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead involuntarily.

I couldn’t understand it! I had no idea! I felt the same sense of bewilderment as a primary school student looking at a college exam paper.

…

After the multiple-choice questions are twenty essay questions.

Please list the methods to solve Thanos's strange maze (at least three, and no more than one link of knowledge may be used). Please elaborate on the advantages and disadvantages of the life hiding technique.

Invading the mind and weaving memories are practical applications of nightmare-based witchcraft...

…

Carl's forehead was sweating. He thought for a long time, and then the quill pen hovering in the air slowly marked an option.

Three hours later.

Carl stood in front of the desk with his head lowered, watching Vulcan grading papers like a student waiting to be scolded.

You can see it.

Vulkan was not very satisfied, his expression was a little gloomy, or helpless.

"Seventeen points!"

Throwing the paper over, Vulkan touched his forehead:

"I suspect you guessed the right answer for one of the multiple-choice questions. Your basic knowledge... is too poor!"

"A test with a score of 60 out of 100 is a pass. Many junior wizard apprentices in the tower probably did better than you."

"...Yes." Carl laughed dryly: "I will try my best."

"It's not surprising that your basic knowledge is poor." Vulcan shook his head:

"After all, you come from the Eastern Kingdom continent where knowledge of witchcraft is scarce, but you also..., forget it!"

He waved his hands helplessly and said:

"Fortunately, you have some talent in application. It seems that you are not suitable for theoretical research, but more suitable for application exploration, especially blood witchcraft and potion refining. I barely guessed a few points correctly."

"That's right."

"That Omar scored 32 points."

Thirty-two points?

Carl breathed a sigh of relief.

Both of them failed, so they are in the same boat, so my score of ten points doesn't look too bad.

After all, he had been exposed to the wizarding world for too short a time and his knowledge reserves were insufficient, which was inevitable.

"never mind."

Sitting up straight, Vulcan said seriously, "As a disciple of the Six-Ring Tower, after you advance to a formal wizard, you can choose two first-ring wizardry skills to practice for free."

"Here's the list, take a look and see what you want to choose."

One of them jumped particularly high, as if it was eager to be chosen.

Carl lowered his head and glanced.

Frost ray!

Charm humans!

The art of terror! ...

"Senior." He thought for a moment and asked:

"Is that all?"

"Isn't this enough?" Vulkan said with a smile:

"More than 200 kinds of first-level witchcraft, involving various schools and branches, and they are all improved masterpieces. Looking at the entire Kalim Continent, there are not many that can come up with them."

Read more of the latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

"No." Carl shook his head: "I just think... As the top power in Kalim Continent, the Six Ring Tower should have some special witchcraft."

"Heh..." Vulcan waved his hand, and the magic paper jumping back and forth on the desk immediately quieted down: "You are very smart."

"In addition to these common first-ring witchcraft, there are indeed some special witchcraft, but they require a certain amount of magic stones to choose."

you?

Carl noticed the other party's choice of words.

In other words, besides himself, Omar also asked this question.

But since you have it, why not just take it out? If you don’t ask, won’t you miss it in vain?

He didn't realize that this was actually a test, testing whether the newcomers would delve into the catalog.

A curious mind is always an essential quality for a wizard.

"Choose!"

Vulcan waved his hand again, and a yellowed paper flew out of the drawer and landed in front of Carl: "Same two witchcrafts. I hope you have enough magic stones to buy them. This opportunity only comes once in a lifetime for every wizard in the Six Ring Tower."

Carl took a deep breath and looked down.

Electric Sphere: Mixed witchcraft, priced at 100 magic stones.

Advanced Invisibility: A specific potion is required for practice, and the price is 100 magic stones.

Purification Curse: Mystical witchcraft, priced at 100 magic stones.

…

Carl's eyes lit up.

really!

The witchcraft here is much better than the first-ring witchcraft in the previous catalog, and each one is very unique.

He was not lacking in knowledge about witchcraft.

The dozen or so inheritances collected by Black Swamp and the memories of the gray-robed wizard Addison enable him to easily distinguish whether a witchcraft is powerful or not.

Starlight Cloak: Flying magic, priced at 100 magic stones.

Evans's Arctic Ray: mutated water magic, priced at 100 magic stones.

…

Carl's gaze paused on the Starlight Cloak. This witchcraft was much more powerful than ordinary flying magic.

In the presence of stars at night, the flying speed can be increased again, and there is a certain degree of concealment.

Pursing his lips, Karl’s gaze continued to move downward, directly to the end, and his eyes couldn’t help but shrink.

Hill Resonance: Earth-based witchcraft. Practitioner must have hill giant bloodline. Price: 1,000 magic stones.

1000 magic stones?

For a moment, Carl wondered if he had seen it wrong and whether the price tag had an extra zero.

Finally confirmed that I was not looking at the flowers.

"1,000 magic stones?"

Karl looked strange: "Can I buy a complete second-level inheritance?"

"Yes." Vulkan obviously knew what he meant and smiled.

"Hill resonance is a relatively special kind of witchcraft. It can increase the practitioner's ability to sense the earth and enhance the power of earth-related witchcraft. Even second- and third-ring wizards can use it."

“Of course, the requirements are also quite demanding.”

Karl's eyes moved slightly, looking at the other person's sturdy figure that was 2.56 meters tall and far beyond that of a normal person, and said thoughtfully:

"Senior, do you have the bloodline of a hill giant?"

"Not bad." Vulkan nodded:

"You can still obtain it by practicing bloodline witchcraft even if you don't have this bloodline, but hill giants are relatively rare."

"There are currently several of them in a certain demiplane, and hunting them is prohibited."

Carl shook his head. Not only did he not have the bloodline of the hills, he also did not follow the path of the earth, so he could only learn this witchcraft.

There is only one spell that costs 1,000 magic stones, but there are quite a few spells that cost 800 or 500 magic stones.

Wrath of Thundergod: Soul sorcery, priced at 800 magic stones.

"senior."

Karl frowned, pointed at the witchcraft and asked, "800 magic stones?"

Not expensive, but cheap!

The wrath of the god of thunder can condense the power of thunder in the soul and destroy all invading evil thoughts.

Immune to cursed death and sudden death.

Greatly increases mental resistance.

Greatly increases Thunder affinity.

The benefits this witchcraft brings to practitioners are far greater than those of the Hill Resonance, and there are no training requirements. The price is only 800 magic stones.

"The wrath of Thundergod?"

Vulkan touched his chin and nodded:

"This magic is indeed of a higher grade than the Hill Resonance, but unfortunately, it is almost impossible to master."

"Thor!"

“When it comes to the existence of God, it’s often very complicated.”

He thought for a moment before continuing, "This sorcery comes from a great wizard two thousand years ago. He captured an angel who controlled the power of thunder, analyzed this sorcery from the angel, and successfully practiced and mastered it."

"But unfortunately, since then, there are very few people who have mastered this witchcraft, and most of them are above the third ring."

"Some people speculate that if one wants to cultivate the Wrath of Thundergod, it would be best if one could obtain the blessing of a deity with the power of thunder. Otherwise, one can only cultivate after reaching the third level and controlling the power of thunder."

?

Carl shook his head.

No wonder it's called Thundergod's Wrath! He didn't expect the wizard to be so fierce that he could capture an angel alive. He knew that ordinary angels had no fighting power, and angels with fighting power were all extremely powerful without exception.

God's blessing?

Wizards don't believe in gods at all, so how can they get blessings from gods? Naturally, they cannot achieve success.

Wait a minute! Carl's eyes twitched.

I myself am God!

If I just need a blessing, I can bless myself, does that mean I have a chance to master this magic? "In fact, there are magics that increase the affinity of thunder. The most rare thing about this magic is that it is immune to sudden death."

Vulcan was unaware of Carl's emotional ups and downs at this moment, and continued to speak slowly: "You should know that some witchcraft can kill people instantly, such as Death Withering, Life Elegy, etc."

"If you are hit by this kind of witchcraft, it all depends on your resistance and judgment. If your resistance is insufficient, even a second-level wizard may die on the spot!"

He sighed, "I have a friend who was mentally exhausted due to some incidents. He was hit by a first-level sorcerer and died immediately due to a failed judgment. It was a big joke at the time."

"There are also secret methods that can directly reduce a person's life span and spells that can chop off a person's soul. These are the favorites of the Shadow Hand guys. If you can master this sorcery, you won't have to be afraid..."

“That’s getting off topic!”

"This witchcraft is cheap because it is too difficult to master. You should look at other witchcrafts."

"No!" Carl looked up and said seriously, "I want to give it a try."

"Hmm?" Vulkan raised his eyebrows. A feeling of powerlessness rose in his heart, making him feel that what he had just said was a bit redundant.

"Oh……"

He chuckled, but didn't refuse:

"It's up to you. I wanted to try it at first, but unfortunately I didn't succeed. If you want to try it, it's not impossible, but there is no one to teach you this witchcraft."

"No problem." Carl nodded. "In addition to this Thundergod's Wrath, I also want this Thunder Wings, a lightning-attributed flying magic."

"Tsk tsk tsk ..." Vulkan shook his head and said:

"You have a good plan."

"Thor's Wrath is eight hundred magic stones, and Thunder Wings is five hundred magic stones, a total of one thousand three hundred magic stones."

"Pay the money!"

Carl's expression froze.

I was careless! Because of the Gray Robe Wizard Addison, I don't seem to have so many magic stones anymore?

"Can I use something else to pay off the debt?"

"No problem, but I'll decide the price."

Vulkan hadn't expected him to come up with so many magic stones.

Thirty bottles of different potions, a pile of soul powder, a dozen magical items, and a variety of magical materials.

These things were taken out from the storage pendant one by one.

As for the pendant...

It's from Hodgson!

All of Marianne's things had been taken out of the pendant, but it belonged to Carl as a trophy.

There are two cubic meters of space inside, which can hold a lot of things.

"I heard that you made a lot of money on the day of the riot in the market." Vulcan thought for a moment: "It seems to be true!"

"But we still need more than a hundred magic stones."

"Senior." Karl thought for a moment, looked at the empty storage space, and took out a crystal with witchcraft recorded on it: "I have a special witchcraft here. Can you tell me how many magic stones it can match?"

"The tower has no shortage of sorcery." Vulkan took it casually:

"If it's a sorcery that's already in the tower, I won't accept it. Otherwise, leave the pendant in your hand. It's worth..."

"Um?"

Halfway through his words, Vulkan's expression froze on the spot, and he looked solemn and lost in thought.

"Regretfully!"

"Through resonance, great force, and assimilation, the earth veins are caused to vibrate. Interesting... very interesting witchcraft."

He followed the path of the earth system, and suddenly when he saw some different earth system witchcraft, he couldn't help but become interested.

"This witchcraft does not require high mental strength, but requires the practitioner to have good physical fitness."

"Most wizards are not suitable."

"Yes." Carl nodded: "But it's suitable for seniors."

Vulkan has the blood of a hill giant, and his physical strength far exceeds that of a legendary knight, plus he has the mental strength of a second-ring wizard.

Very suitable for 'regret'.

"All right!"

Vulkan shrugged and put away the crystal, "I'll accept this sorcery to offset the remaining magic stones."

"Also, a newly promoted wizard should have a few years of rest time, but you know the current situation in the market. It would be a waste to let a formal wizard rest. You still have to watch over the store."

"First recuperate for three months, then come out and work!"

"...Yes." Carl sighed helplessly. He had expected this. Bella the Wizard had also mentioned it. As he turned to say goodbye and leave, he casually asked:

"What will the Tower do with Nancy?"

"The ignorant girl down there?" Vulcan shook his head.

"Because of the mistakes she made, she can no longer inherit Marianne's estate. As for the rest... let's put it aside for now!"

A wizard apprentice who has undergone a "soul search" and is unable to inherit her mentor's legacy means that Nancy has no hope of becoming a wizard.
