Leaving the dungeon, the three returned to the White Tower.
"Since you are willing to become my disciple, we can conclude a contract now." In the spacious experimental hall, Gustav looked around, nodded slightly and said, "The environment is a bit crude, but it is enough for the ceremony."
As he spoke, Gustav put his hand into his sleeve.
As if there was another space inside, after rummaging around for a while, he took out an ancient black book.
"Put your hand on it." Gustav held the ancient book in one hand.
Enzo quickly put his hand on it. The moment his palm touched the ancient book, a strange feeling suddenly surged into his heart. A white flame ignited under his feet, forming a magic circle on the ground.
"Follow the ancient ritual, Enzo! In my name, Gustave will be your teacher!"
"Remember me!" Gustave said solemnly.
"I swear! From now on, I will embark on the path of pursuing the truth, follow the ancient contract, and never leak any knowledge obtained from the teacher without the teacher's permission..."
Enzo took a deep breath and followed Gustave to take the oath.
The voices of the two people gradually merged, and the formation under their feet also burned more intensely...
"Okay, the ceremony is over." After a moment, a smile appeared on Gustav's face and he said, "You and I have concluded a master-disciple contract. From now on, I will be your teacher."
"Thank you, Teacher Gustave." Enzo thanked him quickly.
"By the way, I'll give you a small gift." Gustav stroked his chin, took out a ring from his cuff, handed it to Enzo and said, "This thing is a storage ring. It has a small space inside. It is considered a low-level magic ring."
Chemicals, and the certificate regarding the patent rights of [combustion agent] are also in it, just treat it as a meeting gift for you."
"Thank you, teacher." Enzo was overjoyed.
Storage rings that can store items are very popular magical items. Although they are only low-level, because the space technology is involved in the production process, they are extremely expensive and cannot even be used by ordinary third-level apprentices.
"Come to my place at nine o'clock tomorrow. Now you can go back." Gustav said.
"Yes, teacher." Enzo stroked his chest and saluted, then exited the laboratory.
...
After leaving the White Tower, Enzo walked on the stone road.
"According to the rules of the academy, after becoming an official disciple of a wizard, you will receive some resources for training." Heading towards the living area, Enzo thought in his mind and said to himself, "My mandatory task has been completed, and I can at least practice six years with peace of mind.
months.”
While walking, a crow flew in the distance.
"Hello, Mr. Enzo." The oncoming crow uttered human words, its black wings shook slightly, and its body twisted in mid-air. In a moment, it turned into a man in black robes, kneeling down on the ground.
On the ground.
‘Transfiguration?’ Enzo raised his eyebrows.
"I am Crow Servant Yale. Lord Donald, please go to the mission office." The man in black robe said respectfully.
"Donald? Okay, I'll go right away." Enzo nodded. Donald is the official wizard in charge of the mission office. He should be looking for him about the previous mandatory mission.
After conveying the news, the man in black robe turned into a crow and flew away.
Afterwards, Enzo went to the mission.
"Sir, you are looking for me." In a room, Enzo met the white-robed wizard Donald.
Opposite, Donald, who was dressed in white robes, nodded slightly and said solemnly, "As for the investigation mission you completed before, it has been verified that it does involve the Abyss Devil. Therefore, according to the regulations of the academy, you will be given additional rewards."
"In addition to the original 20 magic stones, you can also choose any zero-ring witchcraft!"
After that, Donald took out a black book and handed it to Enzo and said, "This records all the zero-ring witchcraft collected by the academy. You can refer to it."
"Choose any zero-ring witchcraft?" Enzo's eyes lit up and he quickly took the black book.
"Chip, scan!"
Opening the thick black book, Enzo quickly flipped through it. The chip scanned the information on it, recorded the zero-ring witchcraft one after another, and conducted a comprehensive analysis and sorting.
"Ding! The scan is completed, and the basic information of 1800 zero-ring witchcrafts has been recorded."
Enzo closed his eyes, put down the black book in his hand, and quickly browsed the information in his mind.
"How's it going? Have you made a choice?" Donald asked after a moment.
"I choose compound witchcraft [Dark Fireball]!" Enzo took a deep breath and opened his eyes.
Among the zero-ring witchcraft recorded in the Black Book, [Dark Fireball] ranks among the top three in value. Although it is difficult to practice, it is very powerful after mastering it. Even in the hands of a third-level apprentice, it may be considered a killer move.
.
"Dark extinguishing fireball?" Donald raised his eyebrows, but without saying anything, he took out a black crystal and handed it to Enzo along with 20 magic stones.
After receiving the mission reward, Enzo bowed and saluted again, and then left the mission place.
"Ding! The soul cultivation method has been transferred."
As soon as I returned to the dormitory, the sound of chip machinery rang in my mind.
"So fast!"
A hint of joy appeared on Enzo's face. He turned around and locked the door. Then he sat on the edge of the bed and closed his eyes, quietly browsing the contents of the soul cultivation method in his heart.
As early as on the way back from Snow Hoof City, he started the process of soul transmission cultivation method.
After half a month, the soul cultivation method was finally transmitted.
"The so-called soul cultivation method is a means of improving the strength of the soul!" After a moment, Enzo opened his eyes, with a thoughtful light flashing in his eyes, and murmured: "Through certain special cultivation methods, you can make your soul stronger."
The soul becomes purer and some soul skills are derived.”
Enzo sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes twinkling slightly.
"The soul cultivation method Olandon received was mixed with too much false information, so he chose to devour other souls to increase the strength of his soul. Although the effect was significant in the short term, the essence of the soul became complicated and eventually completely degraded.
Into the abyss!”
Thinking of the scene where Olandon's soul fell, Enzo felt a sense of vigilance in his heart.
"Although taking shortcuts can quickly improve your strength, you will eventually pay a price." Enzo shook his head and said to himself, "Fortunately, I used a chip to eliminate false information and can learn the real soul cultivation method."
"Next, let's get started!"
Enzo took a deep breath, his eyes slowly closed, and based on the information transmitted by the chip in his mind, he began to learn the soul cultivation method.
Time passed quietly, and a few hours passed quickly.
"Huh--" When Enzo opened his eyes again, the sky outside was already dark, and the time seemed to have reached dusk, with a crescent moon hanging high in the sky.
"Create rune-like energy in the spiritual sea, and increase the strength of the soul through circulation."
Enzo stroked his chin, his eyes flashed with the luster of thought, and said to himself, "Theoretically, the soul cultivation method is somewhat similar to the meditation method, but it is still different in essence."
