After arriving at the guard station in the west of the city, it was already approaching evening.
The burly head of the Guards City West received him.
There are a total of five senior wizard apprentices in the west of the city. Except for this burly minister, the other four serve as captains.
The minister's name was Barton Keith, and he took Colin to a corner house on the second floor.
Then he told him to stay here and practice witchcraft peacefully for the first month, and someone would be responsible for providing food.
Wait for a month to pass before assigning him a position.
Patton's attitude was gentle and calm, and he didn't seem to care that he had replaced an old member.
But before leaving, he asked him to learn the two witchcrafts of Hope's defensive force field and fireball as soon as possible.
Colin responded quickly and nodded to express his thanks.
Putting down his backpack, he looked at the room in front of him.
The room is not big, about one third of the stone house we lived in before.
However, since there are only bedrooms and bathrooms, it seems quite spacious.
It is fully qualified as a temporary residence.
Colin walked slowly to the window.
The windows are still wooden windows, but the familiar blue sea can no longer be seen.
He poked his head out.
What you see is a variety of low-rise buildings.
On the left is the direction toward the outside of the city. The further away, the more buildings such as palm huts and seaweed mud houses. They are densely packed and stacked on top of each other, extending into the distance, and are finally blocked by the looming yellow city wall.
The right side is towards the center of the city. The further in, the more regular the buildings become. Brown wooden houses and gray and black stone houses gradually replace thatched mud houses and become the majority.
I stood leaning against the window for a while, and the sun slowly sank.
It was getting late and the surrounding area was getting dark.
The buildings in the center of the city on the right have been lit up with yellow lights. Although they are not as colorful as the neon lights in the previous life, they are still full of fireworks.
Looking to the left outside the city, there were only sporadic fire lights, and most of the buildings were dark.
The same was true all around, with only scattered houses lighting up lights.
‘…No wonder everyone wants to stay at the headquarters.’ Colin sighed silently in his heart.
Then he withdrew his gaze and began to practice.

Time flies, and one month has passed in the blink of an eye.
early morning.
Colin sat on the carpet beside the bed, and with a thought, he summoned the gold paper.
The golden particles gather.
[Name: Colin Leonard]
[Level: Intermediate Wizard Apprentice (2/100); Grand Knight (29/100)]
[Meditation method: Apprenticeship circle meditation method I (35/100); Solar breathing method I (75/100)]
Zero-level witchcraft: Steel Armor ↑ (100/100); Missing Shot ↑ (100/100); Secondary High Temperature Resistance (35/100); Hope Defense Field (32/100); Fireball (
43/100); detect evil (26/100); purify evil energy (18/100)]
[Skill: Elementary Witchcraft Crystal Production——(Bright Crystal Production I↑(100/100)]
[Break limit point: 18]
As Barton ordered, Colin did not go out once during this whole month, but only studied witchcraft painstakingly in his room.
After advancing to the intermediate wizard apprenticeship, he obviously felt that learning witchcraft was easier than before.
In just one month, he not only raised the limit-breaking ignition technique to the limit again, but also successfully raised the two witchcraft skills that he had mastered before, namely, Steel Armor and Missing Shot, to the limit.
In addition, the four witchcraft issued by the school and the secondary high-temperature tolerance witchcraft obtained from the previous exchange with Berkeley have also been introduced.
The only pity is that after advancing to the intermediate level, the progress of wizard cultivation has become slow again...
But fortunately, progress has not completely stopped, and the meditation method can continue to break the limit.
Colin recovered his thoughts and continued to look at the gold paper.
Ignition Technique I, Light Technique I, Water Condensation Technique I and Bright Crystal Making I, these witchcrafts that break the limit at once are incompatible with other witchcrafts on the gold paper, and they all glow with a circle of blue outline light.
The ↑ symbol behind them now has a golden outline of light.
This means that the limit can be broken again.
As for the steel armor, the ↑ symbol behind the Missing Technique is the same as the previous Ignition Technique that reached its limit, with a circle of blue light appearing.
‘Does blue represent breaking the limit once, and gold means breaking the limit twice…’ Colin secretly speculated in his mind.
But he immediately looked at the cleaning technique that had also reached its limit.
The ↑ symbol behind it is shrouded in a circle of golden light.
Colin frowned, feeling a little confused.
I thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation.
So he raised his eyebrows and focused on the ↑ symbol after cleaning.
On the gold paper, the characters representing the art of cleansing were slowly molded, and soon transformed into a new shape.
A limit-breaking cleansing technique was followed by the word "gold" instead of "I"?
'Could this mean that the art of cleansing has reached its limit?'
He recalled the information that came to his mind when the gold paper first appeared.
"Before the limit, any practice will make progress."
"After reaching the limit, you can use limit-breaking points to break the limit and continue to improve."
After chewing it for a while, he secretly guessed.
'Perhaps it is limited by one's own knowledge or realm... Different witchcraft has different number of times to break the limit. And gold means reaching the limit that can be improved now!'
He understood the golden cleansing technique carefully.
After a while, he stood up and used the Golden Cleansing Technique on the bed that had just been cleaned this morning.
Like a breeze blowing across my face, the bed seemed to be brushed by an invisible hand, and tiny impurities fell away one after another, gathered into a ball, and were thrown into the trash can.
Colin rubbed the quilt, then leaned over and sniffed it, and then raised his head with satisfaction.
'You'll never have to worry about cleaning again.'
Then he sat down cross-legged again, took out the magic stone from his money bag, and then called out the gold paper.
…[Bright Crystal Production I]………[Bright Crystal Production (Gold)]
Countless complex knowledge rushes into the brain.
Colin closed his eyes tightly, and soon sweat began to appear on his forehead.
But there was no headache or too much discomfort. The transmission speed of knowledge was always within the limit that he could bear, and the overall condition was relatively mild.
A short time passed like this, and Colin finally opened his eyes, feeling excited inside.
He felt stronger than ever before!
It's a pity... there is no place for him to practice witchcraft.
He put the remaining 53 magic stones into his purse and placed them close to his body.
This upgrade cost him a total of 45 limit breaking points.
If it hadn't been for the unexpected fortune of 80 magic stones, relying on the 18 limit-breaking points he had accumulated, it would have been impossible to have the luxury of breaking all the witchcraft limits.
Looking at the rows of dazzling golden characters on the gold paper, Colin felt comfortable and happy.
After all, the magic stone is something external to the body, and the enhanced power belongs to you forever!
