"Your biggest flaw is that you are too modest."
In the same place, looking at Chen Heng in front of him, Charlie smiled, and said involuntarily: "Modity is indeed a virtue, but if it is too modest, sometimes it is not good."
"For us wizards, there's actually not much need for mortals."
"Some things should be yours, and they are yours. There is no need to be humble."
He looked at Chen Heng and kept talking, telling Chen Heng what he knew.
Regarding this, Chen Heng just smiled, then nodded, and didn't say much.
Charlie didn't say much on the subject either.
"How's the preparation going?"
After a while, Charlie continued to speak, saying so.
"It's almost there."
Chen Heng smiled and said, "The original plan was to set off tomorrow."
"I'm almost ready."
"That's good."
Charlie nodded: "The location of our college is not bad, but sometimes it's too gloomy, and it's not suitable for young people like you to stay here for a long time."
"It's a good idea to go out and have a look once in a while."
"Just go out this time, remember to be careful."
As he opened his mouth, he took out something.
It was a ring with purple gemstones inlaid on it, which looked very precious and beautiful.
On top of this, Chen Heng felt strong mana fluctuations.
"This is."
Suddenly, his face froze, and he looked at Charlie in front of him.
"The ring of protection is about the same effect as the thing you are making now."
Facing Chen Heng's gaze, Charlie smiled, and then said, "But this protective ring is a half-magic weapon."
"The spell engraved in it is not your secondary enchantment, but the real enchantment."
"Take it."
"When your life is in danger, this thing can save your life."
"this"
Looking at the purple ring in front of him, Chen Heng couldn't help showing emotion: "It's so precious."
"It's just a half-magic weapon."
Charlie smiled and said, "Ed, you know."
"For me, a half-magic weapon is not the only thing."
This is true.
As a master who is proficient in magic weapon science, Charlie once made a real magic weapon, a mere half-magic weapon, which is not the only thing for him.
There are other semi-magic weapons on his body, even real magic weapons, not without it.
But despite this, it doesn't mean that this semi-magic weapon is not important to Charlie.
In fact, even though he could make a real magic weapon, the protective ring in front of him must be extremely precious to him.
A half-magic weapon, not to mention the many painstaking efforts put into it, just the materials needed for it, is already extremely precious.
Not as easy as Charlie said.
Charlie was able to take out this semi-magic weapon and hand it over to Chen Heng, which is enough to show that he attaches great importance to Chen Heng.
"Take it."
Charlie smiled: "The world of wizards is far less peaceful than what you usually see."
"If I remember correctly, this should be your first time going out."
"Holding this thing can also make you safer."
"yes."
In front of him, listening to Charlie's words, Chen Heng finally nodded, his face full of gratitude: "Thank you, teacher."
"It doesn't have to be like this."
Charlie continued to laugh: "Actually, you have helped me a lot in the past."
"Ed, your future is bright, as long as there are no accidents, you must be a master of magic weapons in the future."
"I don't want you to disappear from me easily because of a little accident."
"I see."
Chen Heng nodded respectfully, didn't say anything else, just silently accepted the purple ring in front of him.
Seeing Chen Heng accepting the ring, Charlie didn't say anything, turned around silently, and left here.
Looking at it like this, it should be busy with other experiments at hand.
In the same place, looking at his back, Chen Heng looked at the ring in his hand, and couldn't help but smile.
From the looks of it, his efforts over the past two years have not been in vain.
At least up to now, Charlie has regarded Chen Hengzhen as his student, and in order to protect his safety, he specially left a semi-magic weapon for him to protect himself.
Of course, from another perspective, it is completely understandable that Charlie attaches great importance to Chen Heng.
Two years have passed. During this time, Chen Heng has mastered most of what Charlie has learned, and he can even help Charlie and become his assistant in many experiments.
And some of the points of view he occasionally put forward, some ways to solve problems, also benefited Charlie a lot.
Up to now, there is no one in the Hunter's House Academy who does not know Chen Heng's name.
He has a great reputation now, he is the most famous apprentice in the Hunter's House Academy, and he is known as the future master of magic weapon making.
Under such circumstances, it is quite normal for Charlie to attach so much importance to Chen Heng.
Thinking of this, Chen Heng turned around, continued to look in front of him, and continued to do the experiment at hand.
Time passed slowly.
On the next day, Chen Heng left the academy.
He didn't leave alone. When he left, there were some people around him.
These people were all hired by Chen Heng to protect him.
Under the current circumstances, Chen Heng doesn't like to go out alone.
Although his own strength is good, after two years, he has reactivated the life seed in his body at this moment and has become a knight.
However, the strength of a knight is still strong for ordinary mortals, but not enough for wizards.
A third-level apprentice who has mastered spells can easily suppress and kill a knight.
Apart from great knights, ordinary knights couldn't compete with third-level apprentices at all.
Under such circumstances, Chen Heng's current strength is still not enough.
Chen Heng had a clear understanding of his own situation.
Therefore, instead of leaving alone, he chose to hire other apprentices from the academy and let them leave with Chen Heng.
Anyway, nowadays, he doesn't lack magic stones any more, so it is more cost-effective to use magic stones to hire some powerful apprentices to protect his own safety.
Of course, he doesn't hire everyone.
Those who can be hired by him are at least acquaintances who have basic trust.
At this moment, there are many acquaintances in his team.
For example, the two third-level apprentices, Mike and Odo, were hired by Chen Heng this time.
According to Chen Heng's estimation, the strength of a third-level apprentice can basically be equal to that of a great knight.
Only Mike and Otto can be regarded as two great knights.
Coupled with several other people, the guard force that Chen Heng carried with him when he traveled this time can be regarded as very strong.
Before entering the gate, there, an old man wearing a black wizard robe and looking a bit old was already waiting there.
"who?"
Lange turned around, looked at Chen Heng, and then couldn't help but suddenly said: "So it's you, Mr. Ed."
"Mr. Lange, good morning."
Chen Heng smiled and stepped forward to say hello.
The old apprentice in front of him is the apprentice who is responsible for guarding the gate of the college. He is very capable, just like Mike and the other, and he is also a third-level apprentice.
In the past, Chen Heng had asked the other party for many things, so he was fairly familiar with the other party.
"Where are you going this time?"
Lange turned around, looked at Mike and the others standing behind Chen Heng, couldn't help hesitating, and asked.
"With so many people on board, you seem a little nervous."
"Lost Forest."
Chen Heng nodded, and said, "It is said that there is a ruin there now."
"So that's how it is."
Only then did Lange realize: "The ruins seem to be left over from the elven civilization."
"Are you going to go there to have a look, and want to discover the remains of the elves?"
"Just wanted to try it out."
Chen Heng smiled and said, "After all, the way elves make magic weapons is probably different from what we have now."
"Look in the past, maybe there will be some different gains."
"What you said makes sense."
Lange nodded: "Then go and have a look."
"Everything is safe."
He smiled and said that he had a considerable degree of kindness towards Chen Heng.
In fact, not only him, most of the apprentices in the hunter's house had a good impression of Chen Heng.
The reason for this is also because of Chen Heng's various actions in the past two years.
On the one hand, he taught privately and connected with many apprentices.
The current apprentices in the college have basically heard the courses he taught.
With this level of connection, a certain relationship can naturally be maintained, and it will not develop into bad results.
On the other hand, it was the magical items that Chen Hengyuan kept coming up with, as well as the reputation of a genius.
No one wants to offend a future magic weapon master, and a considerable number of apprentices have used the magic items made by Chen Heng and spoke highly of them.
Therefore, in today's Hunter's House Academy, few people don't know Chen Heng, and few people have a bad impression of him.
This is also the result of Chen Heng's active operation.
Generally speaking, a good impression of a wide range is still very important, and it is considered an important thing in many cases.
Lange's attitude at the moment is precisely because of this.
Leaving from the gate of the college, Chen Heng and others continued to walk outside.
They walked out slowly, and their figures gradually disappeared from Lange's sight.
So, he shook his head slowly, walked to the side, and stayed there quietly.
Walking on the road, Chen Heng thought about the purpose of leaving this time.
He left the academy this time in order to obtain the ruins in the Lost Forest.
It was a small relic, said to be left by the elves, which contained many items and inheritances left by the ancient elf wizards.
There are even rumors that there are magic weapons in that ruins.
In the eyes of outsiders, it was because of this that Chen Heng left the academy and went to explore it.
After all, for a genius in making magic tools, the inheritance and magic tools from ancient elf wizards must have a strong attraction, from which many ancient technologies can be found.
But in Chen Heng's view, this was not the case.
If it's just to obtain the elves' technology and items left behind, then there's no need for him to make the trip himself.
Can't you use magic stones to buy them? Why take the risk to go there yourself
Now, when everything is on the right track, Chen Heng has no shortage of magic stones.
Some things that are very precious to others, for him, just use magic stones to purchase them.
There is no need to leave the academy in person.
He left the academy and went to the ruins for other reasons.
Walking on the road, Chen Heng opened his eyes and looked around.
In his body, a purple imprint emerged, and under Chen Heng's control, it was emitting a hazy brilliance.
The power of the Seal of Destiny is being activated.
Then, in front of Chen Heng's eyes, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
On the bodies of Mike and the others in front of them, a series of illusory threads of fate appeared and emerged at this moment, intertwined in mid-air, forming an inexplicable vortex.
An invisible net of destiny was just displayed in front of Chen Heng's eyes and emerged.
Looking at the huge net in front of him, Chen Heng's face was calm, but he was muttering to himself.
"My induction, there should be nothing wrong"
He murmured to himself, and many thoughts flashed through at this moment: "Follow this road, this journey, not only will I not encounter any danger, but I will be able to get some opportunities."
"I just don't know what this so-called opportunity is."
This thought flashed through his mind and he began to think about it.
Counting the time, it has been almost hundreds of years since he obtained the mark of destiny in the Azure Realm.
During such a long period of time, Chen Heng has never relaxed his practice of the Heavenly Star Secret Technique, and has also made considerable progress in his mastery of fate.
This time it is so.
Before that, Chen Heng had no interest at all when he first got the news about the ruins.
Just following the deduction, he sensed something unusual.
At that time, through the mark of destiny, he had an inexplicable premonition.
If he leaves the academy and chooses to go to that ruin, he will get certain benefits.
This feeling is very hazy, but it does exist.
It was precisely because of this that Chen Heng chose to leave the academy and head towards the ruins.
But now, as he left the academy and went to the ruins, the feeling he had before became more and more clear.
"I just don't know, what are the benefits?"
Walking on the road, Chen Heng's face was calm, and many thoughts flashed in his mind.
His use of the Seal of Destiny is still somewhat incomprehensible.
Therefore, although he can probably feel that doing so will be beneficial to him, why it is beneficial and where the advantage is located is not clear to him.
So at this moment, he began to think.
Go to the ruins to get benefits.
According to normal circumstances, this benefit should exist in that ruins, perhaps some of them.
But there seem to be other possibilities as well.
I just don't know what form it will take.
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind, and he thought so.
Time passed slowly.
Before I knew it, more than half a month had passed.
Following the previous path, they passed Heluo City and came to the edge of the Lost Forest.
"According to our current speed, it is estimated that we will be there in a few days."
Aside, while walking on the road, Otto looked at the map in his hand and said with certainty.
"Is it?"
Hearing Odo's words, Chen Heng smiled: "That's not bad."
"I just don't know what will be there."
"not sure."
On the side, Mike also said that he didn't know exactly what was inside the ruins.
The news of this ruin was not made public, but it was sold to the Hunter House Academy.
Afterwards, the news of the ruins spread in the Hunter's House Academy.
However, it is just news.
Only a few people, including Chen Heng, knew about the specific location of this ruin and even some circumstances.
Otherwise, if everyone knows these things, then Chen Heng doesn't have to come here.
However, according to what Chen Heng learned from Charlie, this ruin should not be dangerous.
This relic is just an abandoned fortress, and there are indeed some traces left by elf wizards, but the main people who lived in it at the beginning should be only some elves and mortals.
Therefore, the value of this relic is not too great.
This is also one of the reasons why Charlie was relieved that Chen Heng left the academy and went to this ruin.
Otherwise, if this relic is really so dangerous, then judging from the importance he attaches to Chen Heng, it is absolutely impossible for Chen Heng to leave the academy to explore this relic.
Thinking back on the information he had learned so far, various speculations flashed in Chen Heng's mind.
Perhaps, that ruin is not as simple as it appears on the surface, and there are still some things hidden in it.
Otherwise, where can we talk about the so-called benefits
At Chen Heng's current level, ordinary magic stones and ordinary things are nothing to him.
It has to be something of the level of a magic weapon to be considered a benefit to him.
Thinking of the rumors about the ruins, Chen Heng couldn't help thinking secretly, and various thoughts flashed in his mind.
They continued to walk forward and came to a canyon ahead.
But before he knew it, Chen Heng suddenly realized something was wrong.
"not good!"
In an instant, he suddenly raised his head and looked in a certain direction ahead.
A bit of golden light circulated in front, condensing into a golden arrow, which was rushing towards Chen Heng at this moment.
"who!"
A burst of inexplicable ripples across the surrounding.
Aside, Odo took a step forward, let out a low growl, mana waves bloomed from his body, and instantly cast a spell.
Secondary enchantment technique!
Invisible ripples passed by and condensed into one piece in front of them, looking like a shield.
In the distance, the golden arrow rippled and emitted a hazy brilliance, and then directly hit the shield and was blocked by the shield.
boom!
Accompanied by a light sound, Otto's figure took a step back, and the expression on his face suddenly became a little stunned.
"The secondary enchantment technique has been broken."
In the middle of the crowd, Chen Heng frowned: "What kind of spell is this?"
After staying in Hunter's House Academy for so long, Chen Heng is no longer what he was two years ago.
At this moment, he has an in-depth understanding of many spells commonly used by wizards.
