The black carriage galloped between the forest, breaking through layers of fog without moving forward.
Enzo opened the window and looked behind him. He was getting farther and farther away from the academy. At this speed, he could leave the Forest of Mist at most in a few hours.
"I hope the war will be over when I come back next time."
He sighed, came to his senses, took out a white cube from his waist, and injected a trace of magic into it, the white cube opened like a magic cube, projecting a map towards the top of the carriage shed.
This is the map he exchanged for on the black market at the cost of three potions before leaving the academy.
The above records the location of Thunder City in detail. The city is located on the Thunder Kingdom on the border of the Dark Pole Domain, on the west side of the Dark Forest. It takes several months to reach it from the Phantom of Crows.
"It's good to stay away, at least it can be avoided from war!"
Enzo nodded slightly and ordered in his heart, "Chip, include this map in the database, calculate the optimal route, and avoid large towns as much as possible."
Nowadays, the situation in the Shadow Domain is chaotic, and wars are constantly occurring among major kingdoms. Taking remote paths can reduce unnecessary troubles.
According to the main body's requirements, the chip quickly calculated the optimal route. Enzo browsed it briefly and found that there was no problem. He pushed open the door and explained to Dias who was driving.
"As for orders, master." Diaz looked serious and accelerated the carriage.
The surrounding fog gradually became thinner and the road ahead became wider.
As he got further and further away from the academy, Enzo felt relaxed. He opened the window and glanced at the scene on both sides of the carriage. A glimmer of thought flashed in his eyes.
"Chip, call out my status information."
"Name: Enzo/Strength: 4.2/Physical: 4.5/Praise: 5.2/Level: Second-level Apprentice/Status: Good."
The familiar data panel appeared in front of me. After browsing it, Enzo frowned and sighed, ": Since he was promoted to a second-level apprentice, his mental power has grown slowly and slowly. If he is at this speed, he doesn't know how long he can be promoted to a third level."
Meditation can improve mental power, but it takes a lot of time!
Enzo has embarked on the wizarding journey for less than two years, and his mental power can be improved from the state of an ordinary person to 5.2. In addition to his own talent and resource accumulation, it is mainly due to long-term meditation practice.
"The apprentice's level is calculated based on mental power!"
"The mental power of a first-level apprentice is between 1 and 3, and the mental power of a second-level apprentice is between 4 and 6. If you want to be promoted to a third-level apprentice, the minimum standard of mental power is to break through 6 points."
"Chip! Let's calculate, with my current state, how long will it take to increase my mental power to above 6 points?"
"The task is being established...Ding! Based on the current data status of the subject, the estimated time is: 7 years, 5 months, and 12 days."
"What a joke, so long!" Enzo was shocked, and a shocked expression appeared on his face, saying, ": My current mental power is 5.2, and I can only get promoted to level 3 by only 0.8. How could it take 7 years?"
The results given after the chip calculation made Enzo unacceptable. Although he also knew the difficulties of mental growth, he never expected that it would take him 7 years to be promoted to a third-level apprentice.
You know, he is only 0.8 points away from his third-level apprenticeship!
"According to the chip deduction experiment, the subject has become resistant to the meditation method of "Ancient Memory". If you continue to practice, the growth rate of mental power will continue to decrease. It is recommended that the subject change to advanced meditation method."
After listening to the chip's analysis, Enzo frowned and a thoughtful luster appeared in his eyes.
"It turns out to be a problem of meditation, right! "Ancient Memory" is just a low-level meditation after all. Its function is mainly to guide apprentices into the introduction. It is relatively simple to practice and is suitable for beginners, but it is not significant for the improvement of mental power."
After understanding the problem, Enzo fell into deep thought.
"According to the chip calculations, my mental power growth rate has decreased, which is mainly a problem of meditation. If you want to solve it, you must change to a new meditation method."
“What kind of meditation should I choose?”
There are thousands of meditations in the wizard world, suitable for different classes according to their characteristics.
Meditations such as "Ancient Memory" and "Tides of Dawn" belong to the basic level and are widely circulated in the wizarding world. Almost every wizard organization has included it, and it is almost impossible to study.
But if you have more advanced meditation, it will be very difficult to obtain!
For example, the core secret of the Crow Phantom is called the Holy Book of the "Significant Crow Thousand Spirits", which is an advanced meditation method. If you do not sign a soul contract with the academy, you will never be able to achieve it even if a formal wizard does not.
"The advanced meditation method of "The Legend of Crow" is not something I can get involved in for the time being. If I can be promoted to a formal wizard, I can fight for it, but now I'll forget it."
"The most urgent thing is to find a meditation method that can speed up the improvement of mental power!"
The carriage was driving on the road bumpy, and Enzo was thinking about meditation in his heart. A bright sunlight suddenly shone down, leaving mottled spots on the wall panels through the gaps in the car windows.
"Have you left the Mist Forest?"
Enzo raised his head, stood up and pushed open the door, and walked out of the carriage. There was a vast field around him, and a line of birds flew past the horizon with their wings.
"In a short time, the war will probably spread here."
Looking back at the Misty Forest, Enzo sighed in his heart and said, "No matter what, these have nothing to do with me. The geographical location of Lei Guang City is special, and the war should not affect it no matter how it is!"
The carriage was getting farther and farther away from the Forest of Mist, and Enzo also withdrew his thoughts.
"Ding! Alert! Unknown energy fluctuations were found!"
At this moment, the sound of the chip suddenly sounded, and a dark energy rushed towards the direction of the carriage. A large area of ​​vortex-like darkness appeared on the originally flat ground.
The horse was frightened and suddenly screamed!
Dias quickly pulled the reins and tried to stabilize the carriage, but the black vortex on the ground began to sink like a swamp, and in a moment it swallowed half of the wheel.
"Hmm?" Enzo's eyes turned cold, and the Soul Bone Wand suddenly paused down.
Bang!
The black vortex on the ground exploded like smoke, but the carriage was trapped in the soil and could not move. At the same time, a figure in a broken gray robe appeared in the distance, holding an old book in his hand, and a greedy luster in his eyes.
"Another fat sheep appeared!"
Chapter completed!
