An ordinary noon, in the Zhenzhihui laboratory.

Colin took a sip of the fish soup made by Renee, and suddenly raised his head and said to Shelley in front of him:

"Speaking of which, the New Year is coming soon."

In this world, there is also a saying for New Year.

According to legend, Yafu carved the earliest writing on this day, and civilization began to be passed down from then on.

There are no special customs for the New Year in the Wizarding World. People will celebrate on this day, have a sumptuous dinner, and the more sophisticated ones will use pen and paper to draw a calendar for the coming year, which means that tomorrow will be a new beginning and tomorrow will be better.

.

It seems that people in every world have similar visions for a festival like the New Year to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.

This may be because to a certain extent, as long as there is tomorrow, there is hope and a new beginning...

"Hmm." Shelley held the small white bowl filled with milky white fish soup in both hands and took a gentle sip.

Although Shelley rarely eats, he is occasionally interested in soups such as fish soup, and Colin is naturally not stingy about sharing.

In fact, Colin would ask Shelley if he wanted to eat some before almost every meal.

Although he was actually used to communicating with Shelley while eating, he would never skip this step.

Putting down the white bowl, Shelley did not continue the New Year's talk, but continued:

"We mentioned before that although elemental creatures are different from each other, they also have many commonalities..."

Colin listened to Shelley's words carefully and nodded from time to time.

Generally speaking, Shelley's chats with him were basically about knowledge.

Occasionally, if we make small talk like this, Shelley will quickly bring the topic back to the main topic, and it will always be very blunt...

But he has long been used to such abrupt turns.

Sometimes, Colin even doubted whether Shelley was a real human being, how could he work so hard with almost no extra rest or entertainment.

The lunch time passed quickly, and after a heart-warming chat with Shelley, Colin felt very fulfilled.

Now, another week has passed since I accepted the custom witchcraft commission, and the progress of the research is smoother than expected!

In ten days at most, the preliminary model design will probably be completed and actual testing will begin.

However, before the 250,000 magic stones arrive, there is one more thing worth celebrating.

In a way, this thing even made him happier than completing the custom witchcraft commission!

He waved his hand to cast the cleaning spell, put away the brand-new dishes and chopsticks, and slowly called out the gold paper.

Light golden particles gathered, and an ancient piece of gold paper slowly emerged in front of him.

Above, there are four lines of characters with the charming ↑ symbol flashing behind them!

First of all, it has experienced a limit-breaking secondary acid splash. It is now a mid-level zero-level witchcraft. After breaking the limit one or two times, it can become an upper-level zero-level witchcraft.

Needless to say, two of the remaining three witchcrafts are the first-level high-level disguise witchcrafts - Spirit Mist and Hayden's Pseudo Energy.

This is also the real reason why Colin is more happy than earning magic stones.

Because the breaking of the limits of these two witchcrafts undoubtedly represents another big step forward for him to be promoted to the second level wizard!

As for the remaining witchcraft that has reached its limit, the first-level lower-level witchcraft is silent.

This witchcraft has reached over 80 progress a long time ago.

It's just because Colin has spent most of his time recently practicing meditation and more important witchcraft like Hayden's Pseudo-Energy.

The rest of the witchcraft is practiced once or twice a day at most, so the silence has finally reached its limit until now.

There was nothing special about the process of breaking the limit, Colin was already familiar with it.

He was the first to break the limit of secondary acid splash, spending a total of 60 magic stones.

Then there are two disguised witchcrafts.

It costs 25,000 magic stones to break the limit of Spirit Son Mist, and 20,000 to break the limit of Hayden's Pseudo Energy Technique.

Magic stone.

A total of forty-five thousand expenditures wiped out all the savings he had saved these days in an instant, leaving only a little over a thousand magic stones.

Colin couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't expect that the magic stone that had been stored for so long would be consumed in a moment.

In fact, he still has 20,000 magic stones left as a deposit at the Daren Trust, but that cannot be taken out.

However, I took a look when I just converted to the limit breaking point——

When the value of the limit-breaking point reaches five thousand, the ↑ symbol behind the silence lights up.

This means that the number of magic stones required to break through the silent limit of the first level of this sect is five thousand.

Without any delay, Colin stood up slowly, ready to sell the secondary acid that had just broken through the limit.

In fact, he originally planned to sell it today.

According to Colin's current arrangement, a zero-level high-level attack witchcraft can be produced in five days as quickly as possible, or as slowly as ten days at most.

So after thinking about it, he decided that every time he broke through the limit and reached level 0, he would go to Tongqiangwei Street and sell at different intervals to reduce the possibility of being noticed.

While walking, Colin suddenly stopped, and with a thought in his mind, he blessed himself with the mist of souls that had just broken through.

This first-level high-level witchcraft has become a second-level low-level witchcraft after breaking through the limit. Whether it is power or other things, it has been greatly improved.

Since it was a witchcraft that he had broken through his own limitations, Colin knew it very well. At this moment, with a thought in his mind, he performed it smoothly.

This cannot be achieved by directly purchasing a second-level witchcraft.

What's more, with just twenty-five thousand magic stones, you can't buy any second-level witchcraft at all.

The market price of second-level low-level witchcraft in Darren's agency generally starts at 80,000, with the lowest price being at least 50,000 magic stones.

And most of the time there is a price but no market.

After all, in this world, the mainstream way to obtain high-level witchcraft is to exchange it from a school.

Spirit Mist is a permanent witchcraft, and its design optimizes the consumption of long-term use.

Therefore, maintaining its existence does not require much magic power consumption.

But that doesn't mean it costs less when casting.

At least for Colin, who is still a first-level senior wizard, it's not much.

Since he has been practicing witchcraft in the morning, the magic power in Colin's body is not full right now.

At this moment, after using the spirit mist, his face turned pale, and there was a feeling of emptiness in the magic sea in his chest.

"About half of the magic power is left..."

Colin paused for a moment, felt it, and then immediately turned around, took out the magic release ring, and sat behind the experimental table to regain his magic power.

Out of caution, he habitually kept at least half of the magic power in his body.

Half an hour later, the magic power in the body was restored to full strength with the help of the magic stone.

With a thought in his mind, Colin cast Hayden's Pseudo Energy Technique again.

Almost half of the magic power in his chest suddenly disappeared, like a floodgate opening.

It seems that based on his current level of magic power as a first-level senior wizard, he can only cast these two witchcrafts at the same time when his magic power is at its fullest.

This is still him. If other wizards could cast one of these witchcrafts, it would be pretty good.

After all, the characteristic of the Holy Circle Meditation Method is to increase the total amount of magic power, and the witchcraft of breaking the golden paper limit is tailor-made for Colin. It will be smoother for him to use and the magic power consumption will be relatively smaller.

Colin sat quietly on the iron stool and felt it carefully.

Whether it's the Spirit Mist or Hayden's Pseudo Energy, they don't make much noise when cast.

After the Spirit Mist was cast, there was an undetectable white light flashing across his body at first, but soon, all that light converged on his body and disappeared.

It means that the mist of spirit has been successfully blessed.

Hayden's Pseudo Energy Technique is very similar to it, except that the light caused by the energy is slightly different, and is darker.

But after blessing, at least with one

The naked eye of a knight can't see any difference in appearance from before.

Colin felt it carefully for a while, but he didn't feel much strangeness in his body.

The use of mental power is still smooth, and so is the magic power.

He thought for a moment, raised his arm, and opened his supersensory vision.

It is actually not easy to determine the specific level of a wizard.

At least you can't get an accurate result simply by observing with the naked eye or feeling the momentum.

Supersensory vision can provide some assistance, but not much.

At least at this moment, Colin could only see the brilliance of humanity and knowledge on his body, which became dimmed.
To be continued...
