So beautiful!
This was what they were thinking about at the moment.
Karina was a flamboyant type. She had an oval face and delicate facial features. Her eyes were big, and her pupils were a rare red. Her gaze was fierce, and it was obvious that she had a fierce personality.
Paired with her tall and slender legs and long wine-red hair, she was particularly eye-catching.
Seeing that Heath and the other two were staring at her, Karina could not help but glare at them and said, “Have you seen enough? If you look again, be careful that your eyes will be gouged out!”
Karina was not joking. She had indeed done something similar in the palace.
Ender snorted softly and turned his head away.
Pierre suddenly said, “You’re a very beautiful girl. Do you still have your virginity? You can try it in the trading area. Maybe you can sell it for a good price.”
Ender laughed.
Karina looked embarrassed. What did he think she was? A lowly prostitute?
Pierre saw her expression and could not help but shake his head. He explained, “In the world of Wizards, a beautiful appearance is worthless. You will find out in the future.”
“Okay, let’s go in and register.”
They received four items in the registration room, a storage bag that could store two cubic meters of items, an Apprentice’s cloak with the crest of the tower, an Apprentice’s handbook that recorded the rules and regulations of the tower, and a nameplate that recorded their identities.
After the registration, Pierre led them to the dormitory.
It was called a dormitory, but in fact, it was just a few dilapidated houses around the tower. Unofficial Apprentices could only live outside the tower, and official Apprentices could only live in the tower.
Pierre said, “This place is very wide. You can choose whichever one you like as long as there is no one.”
“Then during this period of time, you should first familiarize yourself with the environment. Recently, Apprentices have been joining the tower one after another. After a period of time, when the number of people is about to be enough, there will be a Wizard who will teach you meditation techniques. At that time, you can officially start your training.”
“Alright.”
“Then I’ll be leaving first. If there are any other problems, you can look for me at the entrance of the valley. I’m usually on guard there. If I’m not there, then I’m receiving Apprentices. Just wait for a while…”
Pierre quickly left.
Ender looked at the shabby wooden house in front of him and said with a bitter expression, “Is this the kind of place we live in? My pigsty is even more luxurious than this.”
He said angrily, “We are here to be Wizards. How can this be worse than being slaves?!”
Karina snorted. “If you are not satisfied, you can leave. No one will stop you.”
Then, she went into a room.
Ender cursed in a low voice, “Self-righteous bitch! Sooner or later she will become someone else’s female slave!”
After a pause, he turned to Heath and said, “Brother Heath, are you going to eat something? Let’s hurry up and have two good meals. I heard from Pierre that he will start training officially in two days. It will cost Magic Stones to eat. Damn it, they’re a bunch of vampires!”
Heath said, “You go first. I’m not hungry yet. I’m going to take a look around.”
“Okay.”
After Ender left, Heath walked to a patch of grass beside him. There were some plants on the ground. There were sunflowers with smiling faces, grass that looked like windmills, pure black chrysanthemums, and so on.
Heath picked them up and extracted them one by one.
[Beep, extraction successful. Spirit +0.01]
[Beep, extraction successful. Agility +0.02]
[Beep, extraction successful. Vitality +0.01]
Heath was overjoyed. Sure enough, they could all be extracted!
He looked at the strange plants that filled the mountains and plains in the valley, and the joy in his eyes grew stronger.
…
In the next few days, Heath stayed in this valley, looking around for strange plants to extract.
Many of the materials here did not exist in the Aike Continent. Each of them could extract a large number of attributes.
During this process, Heath’s strength had also increased significantly.
Attributes: Strength 12.1, Agility 12.3, Vitality 11.9, Spirit 1.6
Strength and agility both broke through 12. Vitality was only one step away from 12. It could be considered as stepping into the Advanced Knight class.
In addition, his spiritual power had also increased a lot, reaching 1.6. Although he did not know what level this was among Wizards, it should not be considered low among ordinary people.
In this way, more than half a month had passed. Heath had extracted all the vegetation around him.
At this moment, the notice of the Shadow Tower summoning them had arrived.
Shadow Tower, Inheritance Hall.
More than 30 people had gathered in the spacious hall. There were men and women, all between the ages of 13 and 16. These were the Apprentices who had recently joined the Shadow Tower, a total of 36.
They would be waiting here to receive the Wizard’s inheritance.
Da! Da! Da!
A series of footsteps sounded.
Not long after, two people walked in. The leader was a very old Witch. Her large hawk nose was very eye-catching, and she wore a pointed high hat on her head.
A young girl followed beside her. The girl was carrying a wooden plate covered with a black cloth.
The three of them came to the lectern in front of them. The old Witch said, “I’m Witch Cassandra. I’m in charge of teaching you the basic knowledge of cultivation. Now that I’ve started, you should pay attention.”
“The so-called cultivation means that through some special methods, we can gradually change ourselves and obtain greater strength and a longer lifespan.”
“This method, we call it meditation…”
Witch Cassandra explained the basic knowledge of cultivation.
Generally speaking, there was an energy particle called element in this world.
Through meditation, wizards could absorb these elemental particles into their bodies, and through these elemental particles, they could change the body’s cellular structure to obtain extraordinary spells, long lifespan, and so on.
“…Alright, these are all the contents of the training. Debbie, give them the scrolls.”
The girl next to her opened the black cloth on the wooden plate. Underneath it was neatly stacked scrolls made of sheepskin. She walked down and handed the scrolls to each apprentice.
Witch Cassandra said, “This is the basic meditation chapter. Everyone receives a scroll. The specific meditation method is recorded on it. If you listened carefully to what I said just now, you should be able to understand it.”
“It doesn’t matter if you can’t understand it. You can pay two Magic Stones for other Apprentices to teach you. Many Apprentices in the trading zone are willing to accept this job. Just give two Magic Stones. Don’t give too much.”
Heath took the scroll and silently chanted in his heart, ‘Extract.’
[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained the knowledge ‘Apprentice Meditation Manual’.]
Large chunks of unfamiliar information flooded into his mind, and his entire head felt sore. There was already a lot of unfamiliar knowledge in his mind, which was the content related to meditation.
There were some parts of what Witch Cassandra said that he did not understand, and now it was clear.
‘I see. Is this the principle of meditation?’
After the scroll was distributed, Witch Cassandra took out a crystal ball and placed it on the table.
She said, “You have one more free test. I’ll give you a detailed test of your spiritual power, talent, elemental affinity, and I’ll give you some training advice. Of course, you can follow whatever you want. Alright, line up and come one by one.”
The Apprentices lined up one by one and went forward to test.
The content of the test was similar to the test done by Wizard Salado. Only this time, the fog in the crystal ball was more uniform in color, and it would even turn into numbers.
The first girl finished the test very quickly.
“Innate spiritual force 1.1, very good. Wizard talent is medium, affinity to water, positive energy. Recommended to walk in the direction of water and life. Alright, next.”
The second boy went up.
“Innate spiritual force 0.9, not bad, Wizard’s talent is medium, affinity with wind, space. I suggest wind, position direction.”
“Innate spiritual force 0.6, a little bit less. Wizard’s talent is high…”
“Innate spiritual force 0.8, not bad…”
The apprentices went up one by one, and soon it was Ender and Karina’s turn.
Ender’s innate spiritual force was 0.9. His wizard talent was high, and his affinity was earth. Cassandra suggested that he walk in the direction of earth and nature.
Karina’s innate spiritual force was 1.2. Her wizard talent was also high, and her affinity was fire.
There was also a small incident when she was testing Karina. Because her 1.2 spiritual force was the highest among the Apprentices, she was praised by Cassandra.
“Innate spiritual power 1.2, very good. Very few Apprentices can have such high innate spiritual power. You should have a Wizard bloodline, right?”
Karina said, “It’s my father.”
Cassandra nodded. “What a lucky girl. Wizards and mortals generally don’t give birth to life that easily.”
She paused, looked at Karina’s red eyes, and said, “Red eyes, affinity with fire elements. You may have the bloodline of the Phoenix or Everett. Your talent is not bad. If you work hard, you may get results. Come on, little girl. If you can become an Advanced Apprentice in ten years, you can come to me. I will give you a chance to be my student.”
Cassandra’s words caused a stir in the crowd.
Everyone was envious.
Karina happily said, “Alright, Witch Cassandra.”
“Alright, next.”
Karina went down. Heath, who was at the back, walked up and placed his hand on the crystal ball.
Not long after, a cloud of smoke rose from the crystal ball and gradually turned into a small row of numbers.
Cassandra said, “Innate spiritual power, 1 point…”
Halfway through her sentence, she suddenly widened her eyes.
The old Witch opened her mouth and said in surprise, “1.6!”
