The Weird Wizarding World Chapter 368 Breaking the Limit
The mountains are densely forested and the sun is shining down.
In the large open space outside the cave, Colin was practicing breathing techniques. The green gold fighting energy was flowing, and the wind was whistling as he moved his hands and feet.
Fortunately, the ground here has been solidified by his witchcraft, making it flat and solid, otherwise it would have been a scene of billowing sand.
A concealment witch formation was also set up around the open space, hiding all the movements of Colin's practice.
This mountain forest is remote and rarely visited.
Today, Colin has lived here for six days, and he feels a little isolated from the world... mainly because he can't enjoy the delicious meals made by Renee like before.
But it's only two days before I go back.
At this time, Colin's movements paused slightly, and the green-gold fighting spirit on his body suddenly swayed, seeming to expand slightly.
Colin realized what he was doing, and after completing his current action, he summoned the gold paper with a thought.
Sure enough, the progress in the knight level column finally reached 100/100, which meant that it was time to try to break through.
A faint smile appeared on Colin's face, but he was not in a hurry to break through.
At noon, he waited until his condition was adjusted to the best before he officially started to break through.
The oval-shaped extraordinary organ in the lower abdomen pumped rapidly, and the green gold fighting energy flowed through the limbs and bones like a wild horse, making a substantial surging sound.
A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I’ve known for ten years! It’s so easy to use. I use it to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here]
Invisible fluctuations spread in all directions, like a breeze, and the leaves of the surrounding green trees suddenly whirled.
…
Neustadt City, in an ordinary study room.
"Another wizard was attacked?"
Behind the brown desk, Fabol frowned deeply.
"Yes, sir, this is the third attack that has occurred recently, and the deceased was a first-level wizard." The wizard wearing the witch robe of the law enforcement team lowered his head and reported, "The victims in the three attacks showed that
Although the injury marks are slightly different, they are generally similar, and the body surface is covered with frost that will not melt for a long time."
"Yes." Fabol nodded slowly, indicating that he understood.
‘It’s been a troubled time.’ He sighed in his heart.
After Operation Crimson, although the city was peaceful for a while, as time went by, many ghosts and monsters gradually appeared.
Not only is the recent serial case in front of me of suspected monsters attacking wizards, but there are also many bizarre cases, such as the witch apprentice killing his mentor who often bullied him and was a first-level wizard... the wizard
Apprentice, how bizarre it is to kill a first-level wizard!
Moreover, after doing this, the female apprentice disintegrated into a puddle of flesh and blood for unknown reasons, and her soul seemed to have completely disappeared without any trace.
In addition, the number of wizards who have fallen mad has suddenly increased, and the reasons are different.
In the past, the reasons for the alienation and madness of wizards were mostly related to the study of witchcraft.
However, in recent events, some wizards have no interest in studying knowledge at all, but they are still inexplicably alienated and corrupted.
Fabol was vaguely aware that a new undercurrent seemed to be brewing in the city of Neuinstadt.
"Has the specific analysis report on the wizard named Yin Xiduo and the witch array in the basement of his residence a few days ago been released?" Fabole thought for a while and asked.
"It's out." The reporting wizard replied, taking out the bound report from the storage ring at the right time and handing it over.
Before that, that is, on the day of the incident, they conducted a preliminary investigation of the witch array in Yin Xiduo's basement and determined that the effect of the witch array was specifically used to extract energy from frost materials and provide energy for something or a creature.
.
But the preliminary investigation can only go so far - all the information about the basement in Yin Xiduo's basement, and even on his body, was actively destroyed by him.
A more detailed investigation, that is, a further analysis of the witch formation, has only just been completed today.
Fabole took the report and read it carefully.
Speaking of which, just after that day, strange attacks on wizards suddenly appeared in the city.
Such a coincidence gave Fabolle no reason not to connect the two, but due to insufficient evidence, this was always just a conjecture - at least just now.
Fabole put down the detailed analysis report, a glimmer of understanding flashed in his eyes.
'Some kind of frost creature similar to ice element...'
The attacks that have occurred in recent days are indeed inseparable from the previous case of Yin Xiduo!
In other words, what has been attacking all over the city recently is the unknown frost monster that was cultivated in Yin Xiduo's basement.
When Fabole thought of this, he couldn't help but frown again.
It is time for the Supreme Council to promulgate corresponding regulations and bring wizard research into unified management to avoid such accidents.
Or at least prepare.
Fabole waved away the wizard who was reporting in front of him, and pondered for a long time alone in the study. Finally, he wrote down the suggestions in his heart, then hurriedly went out, stood up, his figure shrank rapidly, and he didn't know where he was going.
………………
"pity……"
In the dense forest, Colin stared at the gold paper in front of him and sighed secretly.
The ground under his feet that had been reinforced with witchcraft was now in a mess, with ravines and upturned soil everywhere.
There is no doubt that the appearance of the ground is due to the impact of the knight's advancement.
Yes, Colin successfully broke through the current knight level.
But he was not able to advance to the second-level knight in one fell swoop as he thought - although whether it is a second-level knight or a first-level knight, it is just Colin's own name now.
If he wanted to, as the person who started a new path as a knight, he could definitely call the realm of knights after this breakthrough a second-level knight.
But Colin didn't think that, at least with this breakthrough, the improvement he felt did not reach the level of qualitative change.
If I had to say it, it would be more appropriate to say that he broke through from a first-level junior knight to a first-level intermediate knight.
Colin put away the gold paper and carefully felt the changes in himself.
The knight's aura was strengthened by approximately 30 to 40%, and the fighting spirit cyclone in his body became even larger.
The 'Fighting Qi Core' inside, which is the extraordinary organ in the lower abdomen, has also undergone some special changes - it has become more like a perfect sphere, and its volume has also expanded slightly.
Compared to the wizard, a broad and clear road that has been walked by countless people, the knight is still an unknown path hidden in a dark forest.
On this road, no one can help him, and there is no past information to refer to.
‘Perhaps, we should go and learn some more Knight’s Breathing Techniques?’ Colin thought silently.
After Yin Guang's breathing method broke through the limit before, a special guidance technique appeared. It was precisely because of this that he was able to successfully break through the first-level knight. Of course, at that time, there was also the special influence of the Heart of the Ancient Tree.
This time, Colin broke the limit as before, by continuously compressing and increasing the energy in his body - that is, fighting spirit.
This method is still very effective so far, but it is foreseeable that in the near future, or the next time you break through the knight level, you will always encounter a situation where you can no longer improve like the great knight limit.
Until then, if you want to take a step further on the knight's path, you still have to rely on gold paper to break the limit.
When using gold paper to break the limit, the more Knight's Breathing Techniques, the better. This way, after one or two times, the Knight's Breathing Technique will turn golden again, making it temporarily impossible to break the limit.
‘Let’s go back to the city first.’ Colin glanced around and gathered his thoughts.
After simply dealing with the traces here, we set off on the return journey.
It's May 6th now. I'm going back to familiarize myself with the newly improved knight's strength. I'll just go to the auction tomorrow.
About two hours later.
Colin then came to a smaller wizarding city - Alfred.
This time, he did not choose a retreat far away from the city of Neuinstadt like before.
Of course, the distance between Alfred and Neuinstadt is not close, but it is still much closer than other wizard cities with teleportation arrays, and the teleportation fees required are also much less.
Colin paid the fee and stepped onto the teleportation array.
Whoosh!
The light of the teleportation array flashed, and the next second, Colin returned to the familiar city of Neuinstadt again.
It was just evening at this moment, the clouds on the horizon in the distance were bright, and the setting sun was like fire.
However, seeing this beautiful scenery, Colin frowned slightly as he walked out of the Teleportation Headquarters, and took out the flashing school badge.
‘Colin Leonard, after receiving this notice, please go to the General Affairs Castle immediately to receive a new mandatory mission.’
"Is there a new mandatory mission?" Colin was slightly startled, but he didn't resist as much as before.
After all, even if the school does not issue mandatory tasks, after a while, at most until the research on combined witchcraft is completed, he will still need to take on some school tasks to earn contribution points.
As for the possible stumbling block that the pure-blood family may have secretly set... As a wizard with a second-level junior level and a second-level advanced level of actual combat power, Colin was not too worried.
Putting away the school badge, Colin continued to the Xisheng School General Affairs Building without stopping.
The wizard on duty took the school badge and put it into the witchcraft tools aside to check:
"Dear Lord Leonard, your mandatory mission this time... Well, there is an error in the feedback given by the crystal. I will take a closer look. Wait a moment."
Colin raised his eyebrows.
The wizard on duty fiddled with it for a while, scratched his head and said: "The crystal shows that your mission this time is to transport a batch of supplies to the front line, but now it has been cancelled."
"What do you mean canceled?" Colin asked confused.
"Did you just receive the school badge notification today?" the wizard on duty asked. He touched the witchcraft crystal on the side and said: "The crystal shows that the school assigned you this mandatory task as early as four days ago."
"I left the city of Neuinstadt a few days ago for something." Colin replied.
"No wonder, it may be that this mandatory task is more urgent and was assigned to someone else after you failed to respond." The wizard on duty explained, "Although such situations are rare, they have happened in the past."
"Then do I still need to do mandatory tasks now?" Colin thought for a while and asked.
"What is needed is just not this one." The wizard on duty nodded and suggested,
"It's best for you to stay in Neustadt City for now. According to past experience, at most half a month, the school will reassign you new mandatory tasks."
Colin was speechless and nodded expressionlessly.
"……I see."
…
May 7th in the Anam calendar, afternoon.
Watt Auction House.
Colin walked out of the auction house calmly, his handsome face expressionless.
But if you look closely, you can still see the surprise deep in his blue eyes.
Perhaps the law of conservation of luck came into play. Yesterday the school brought bad news about the mandatory mission, but today's auction went smoothly.
As expected, the Flower of Cold Thorn is a treasure that can induce the frost talent reaction.
Moreover, there were not many people competing for this treasure in this auction house, and in the end, he successfully bought it for only 100,000 magic stones.
Instead of going home, he hurried all the way to the Zhenzhihui Laboratory. Colin closed his eyes and took the Flower of Cold Thorn.
A bit of cold air seeped out from his mouth and nose, causing a layer of frost to form on his eyebrows and temples.
About ten minutes later, Colin thought and summoned the gold paper.
His eyes went directly to the frost talent column, and sure enough, the progress behind it had reached 100/100!
Without hesitation, Colin took out the magic stone and began to break the limit.
Ten thousand...twenty thousand...thirty thousand...the values behind the limit-breaking point soared until it reached 300,000, and the symbol behind the frost talent finally lit up.
Colin put away the remaining magic stones with some pain.
Mana is earned quickly, but spent even faster.
But if you think about it again, such expenses are normal.
After all, the current frost talent allows him to unleash a powerful talent equivalent to the normal attack of a first-level wizard. It is surprising that it is not expensive to break the limit.
Moreover, the more magic stones consumed to break the limit, the more powerful the frost talent is... Thinking of this, Colin suddenly felt better.
The magic stone did not leave him, it just stayed on his body in a different way!
After taking a slight breath, Colin concentrated his attention and clicked heavily on the symbol.
Peng!
A circle of blue cold air suddenly spread from Colin, who was sitting cross-legged, to the surroundings like a tide.
At the same time, the temples and eyebrows that had just melted away were now covered with new frost.
I don't know how long it took, but Colin opened his eyes, and there was a flash of frosty whiteness and joy deep in the blue eyes.
Frost talent, successfully breaking the limit!
Colin stood up slowly, the frost on his eyebrows and temples melting away quickly as if he had received an order. He waved his hand gently, and a dark blue cold air swept forward...
‘Not bad.’ After feeling the talent after breaking the limit, Colin smiled slightly.
As if he thought of something, he rested for a moment, then waved his hand gently, summoning the ice element.
Now that the frost talent has successfully broken through the limit, it is time to continue the previous research and see if it is really as you thought, and you can make new progress in combination research!
