Time passed slowly.
In peace, time often passes quickly.
Before you know it, another year has passed.
In the quiet and spacious laboratory, Chen Heng's figure stood alone.
Compared with a year ago, his appearance at this moment has changed a bit, his figure is newer and taller, and he has a unique temperament that cannot be concealed at first glance, which is heart-wrenching.
Counting his age, Chen Heng is already twenty years old at this moment.
Twenty years old, this age happens to be the time when one's vitality is the greatest in one's life.
At this time, Chen Heng's body was finally fully developed and reached the current best condition.
His appearance gradually became fixed, and if there were no accidents, he probably wouldn't change much.
"It's very close."
Standing in the laboratory, looking at the scenes in front of him, Chen Heng had a calm face and muttered to himself.
After a year, under his continuous meditation, the mana in his body has further grown at this moment, and has reached a new standard.
The mana of a third-level apprentice is roughly between fifty and one hundred treasuries.
If the mana in the body exceeds one hundred libraries, it can be regarded as reaching a certain limit of a third-level apprentice, and has the possibility of being promoted to a full-time wizard.
Chen Heng has already reached this standard at this moment.
The effect of the Moon God Ceremony was better than what Chen Heng had expected in the past. Using this advanced meditation method to meditate, the effect that can be obtained is much stronger than the ordinary wizard method.
With this advantage, coupled with the fact that Chen Heng's own basic conditions are strong enough, he has reached this level.
Of course, in this process, Chen Heng's own efforts are also indispensable.
Otherwise, it would not have reached the limit so quickly.
Standing alone in the laboratory, Chen Heng was lost in thought.
He is thinking about the next way.
Because as a descendant, his own mental power is inherently stronger, and he has already reached the standard for being promoted to an official wizard.
As for mana, there were still some flaws in the beginning, but now it has been supplemented.
As for his own aptitude, Chen Heng also greatly met the standard.
The conditions in all aspects perfectly meet the conditions required for promotion.
But to actually make a promotion, to make sure it's as successful as possible, something else is needed.
For example, some unique potions and other gadgets, many of which are needed by apprentices when attacking official wizards.
As a fourth-level qualification, Chen Heng's basic conditions are high enough and good enough, but if he wants to ensure the success of his promotion, he needs some things to assist him.
But obviously, Chen Heng didn't have any of these things.
When leaving the Hunter's House Academy, Charlie did give Chen Heng some things, but they didn't include those things needed to assist in promotion.
If you want to be promoted, you need to get things together.
At this point, it was a big problem for Chen Heng.
When he left Hunter's House Academy, he didn't expect the current situation.
When he left the academy, he was only a second-level apprentice, and he didn't expect that the war in the Hemu area would last so long and not end.
In Chen Heng's original prediction, when he was close to being a formal wizard and was about to start his promotion, the war in the Hemu area should have already been decided.
But now, the situation is not the case.
Within the Hemu area, the war is still going on.
The wizards were divided into several factions and fought in the Hemu area, destroying the original order.
This has also led to some things that could have been obtained from the Hunter's House Academy, but now there is no place to obtain them.
To be promoted to an official wizard, in addition to meeting the basic requirements, at least one real first-level spell template and the corresponding golden potion are required.
Among them, there is no shortage of spell templates, not to mention the ones from the Hunter's House Academy, and there are many records in the inheritance stones left by Yana.
It was a spell template from another wizard gathering place, and it was more complete and unique than the spells in Hunter's House Academy.
What really prevented Chen Heng from doing anything was the golden potion.
Golden potion, this is an indispensable potion in the process of being promoted to an official wizard.
This potion is very precious, and only a few experienced pharmacists can refine it.
Under normal circumstances, such precious potions are in the hands of those wizard organizations, and they will not be exposed at all.
Even if Chen Heng wanted to use magic stones to buy them, there was no place to buy them.
This is also the biggest problem currently troubling Chen Heng.
In the promotion of official wizards, it is not impossible to lack the golden potion, but the success rate will drop a lot, which can directly reduce the success rate of wizards who are trying to be promoted by 20%.
The impact of this success rate is already terrible, even Chen Heng dare not bet.
With his current conditions, although he can try to advance without the golden potion, it is still risky in the end.
It is far less secure than using golden potion assistance.
"According to my previous speculation, during the promotion process, more than one golden potion can be used."
Chen Heng fell into deep thought: "With my current physical fitness, I can even use three at the same time."
"In this case, the probability of me being promoted to an official wizard will also be maximized."
This thought flashed through his mind, and he thought so at this moment.
The use of golden medicine is not fixed.
Generally speaking, the younger, the stronger the body, and the more vigorous the wizard's vitality, the more golden potions he can use.
The probability of success in promotion is also higher.
With Chen Heng's current situation, even if he uses three golden potions at the same time, there is no problem.
Unfortunately, in the current situation, let alone three potions, even one would be enough.
"During the war, things such as potions and magic items will be upgraded. Things like golden potions will be controlled by the warring parties, and there will not be much surplus."
Standing on the same spot, various thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind: "In this case, even if I go to the Hemu area, it will be difficult for me to get enough potions."
"Unless, I am willing to join the power of a certain side and participate in this war"
This thought flashed through his mind, and then he quickly shook his head to dismiss the thought.
Even though he is located on this continent, he also knows the news of the Hemu area very clearly.
After several years, the situation in the Hemu region has not improved at all, but has become more violent.
From the beginning of the war to the present, in the five years since the beginning of the war, there have been official wizard-level existences who died every year. Just dying in the war like this shows its horror.
As far as Chen Heng's current strength is concerned, if he joins in, the risk factor will be extremely high.
If there is no other way, it's fine.
But given Chen Heng's current situation, it was unnecessary.
He wanted to find the golden potion in order to reduce the risk in the promotion process.
And if he joins the chaos in order to achieve this goal, let alone whether the golden potion can be obtained, he himself will face higher risks first.
And this was exactly what he couldn't stand.
"Wait slowly."
Thinking of this, Chen Heng shook his head secretly, and this thought flashed in his mind.
In any case, he is only twenty years old now, and he is at the most vital time in his life.
Compared to other wizards, he is still very young, so he can wait slowly.
He has time to spend slowly, waiting until the situation gradually calms down.
"However, there are still some attempts to be made"
Standing in the laboratory, while Chen Heng was busy, this idea flashed in his mind.
He wants to return to the Hunter's House Academy, to go and have a look there.
Before the Hunter's House Academy was closed, some apprentices were also stationed there.
Through these apprentices, it may be possible to find out where Charlie is, or the exact time when the academy will resume.
In order to confirm these, Chen Heng decided to find a chance and take the time to go back in person.
Time passed slowly.
More than half a month later, after finishing the affairs at hand and basically settling them, Chen Heng embarked on the journey of returning.
He took a fixed boat and headed towards the Hemu area.
Along the way, Chen Heng also saw some other apprentices.
Because of the war, the number of wizards going to the Hemu area has decreased significantly in recent years.
Many wizards were afraid of the war on the Hemu area and fled.
But at the same time, there are also a group of people who feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, and want to take this opportunity to go to the Hemu area and get something.
Compared with those who left, these people are relatively fewer, and they are generally wild wizards, or wizards from elementary schools.
This kind of wizard with little background usually has a very difficult life, and basically has no way forward.
This war is an unavoidable place for wizards from wizard families, but it is an opportunity for these wizards.
After all, in a war, no matter which side it is, it will increase its wooing of outside wizards and increase its own strength as much as possible.
Some things that cannot be obtained under normal circumstances are very likely to be obtained at this time.
Therefore, during this period of time, along the way, Chen Heng also saw many wizards who wanted to leave this continent and go to the Hemu area.
Regarding this, Chen Heng's face was calm, he just hid silently in his room, did not go out, and rarely showed up.
He went to the Hemu area this time just to inquire about some news, and he didn't want to cause any trouble. Naturally, the lower the profile, the better.
Many past experiences have told him that if a person wants to live long enough, he must be as low-key as possible.
In the past, unless necessary, or under normal circumstances, Chen Heng usually chose to keep a low profile.
It's a pity that although he doesn't show up, sometimes accidents happen.
A burst of turmoil came from all around, stirring constantly at this moment.
The whole ship began to shake, as if someone was casting a spell, which affected the progress of the ship.
"what's the situation?"
In the room, feeling the turbulence of the surrounding environment, Chen Heng couldn't help frowning.
Without the slightest hesitation, he walked out of the room.
A scene suddenly unfolded in front of my eyes.
At this moment, the ship was only halfway through the voyage, and the surrounding area was still an endless ocean, which was almost limitless at first glance.
And in front, the figures of the Sea Clan appeared, and they just appeared in Chen Heng's sight.
These sea people look very strong, each head looks taller than ordinary people, and their appearance looks different.
At this moment, they scrambled forward and rushed towards the boat where Chen Heng was.
"It's the Sea Clan!"
On the side, a fellow wizard let out a roar, and his face looked particularly ugly at this moment: "Why do these guys come to this area?"
"Damn it! It was the mana fluctuations on the ship that brought them here!"
Around, from time to time, some apprentices opened their mouths and let out an exclamation.
The ship in front of him was basically wizards, or people related to wizards, and they reacted to this situation almost immediately.
The Sea Clan is a unique race that lives under the ocean. Its power is very strong. To some extent, it doesn't even need to be weaker than human beings. It is one of the absolute strong races.
And this group of Sea Clan is extremely sensitive to the breath of mana, even if they are far apart, they can feel it accurately.
The reason why they rushed over this time must be because they felt the breath of mana from the ship, so they rushed over like this.
"Damn! How can there be sea people in this sea area!"
Ahead, standing on the deck, looking at the Sea Clan rushing below, a middle-aged wizard's face turned livid: "Their sphere of influence is not here!"
"It's war!"
Someone made an excuse and guessed: "The war in the Hemu area has affected them, making them try to occupy some dangerous sea areas, so that they slowly migrate here."
"This Sea Clan tribe should have just migrated here, and we ran into it directly."
Some people guessed that, according to the normal situation, it should be very consistent with the facts.
Of course, even if you can guess these, it doesn't help much in the immediate situation.
In front of them, one by one, the hideous and extraordinarily tall Sea Clan roared and rushed forward, rushing forward under the trend of the Sea Clan wizard.
The breath of mana is rippling.
Faced with the current situation, after all, a wizard took action.
"Let's do it together!"
Someone shouted: "In this situation, if we don't do anything, we will all die in their hands!"
The nobles in the sea clan like to eat creatures with mana most.
Human wizards happen to be one of their favorite foods.
The boat in front of him is basically wizards, and in the eyes of the other party, they are the most delicious food.
If they don't choose to resist, if they don't take advantage of the present to unite and defeat those sea people, then their ending will probably be very miserable.
All the wizards present understood this truth, so they did not hesitate, and concentrated their mana all over their bodies.
In mid-air, a light blue ball of light condensed out, exuding a light blue light, and then rushed forward directly under the control of mana.
Boom!
There were bursts of soft noises.
A sea wizard was hit by the ball of light and died suddenly on the spot.
The thick mana breath is spreading, and the power belonging to the element particles remains here, which is very clear.
"It was the adults who stayed behind on the boat who made the move!"
Looking at this result, many wizards present couldn't help cheering up.
Being able to cast spells directly to attack, the wizard just now was obviously a third-level apprentice.
A third-level apprentice, who is comparable to a great knight, is almost a top existence in some small places.
This should be the remaining apprentice on this ship.
Feeling the powerful aura of mana, many apprentices couldn't help but get excited, and they all drew their swords in their hands, and they were ready to fight.
As wizards, at this moment, all the characteristics of wizards are no longer displayed on them, and they look more like knights.
Of course, this is also impossible.
Except for the third-level apprentices who must have mastered spells, the rest of the first-level and second-level apprentices, although they have mana, do not have the power to cast spells.
All they can rely on is their physical strength brought about by mana.
The form shown is naturally more like a knight than a wizard.
Chen Heng behaved similarly.
At the moment when the surrounding fights started, he raised the long sword he was carrying and rushed over, together with other apprentices around, resisted the invading sea clan.
His strength is very strong, he is obviously a third-level apprentice, but when he uses close combat methods, it is scary enough.
With each strike, an invading Sea Clan must be killed.
With him as the center, a thick layer of corpses quickly piled up all around.
In the surrounding area, the other apprentices were also working. They just looked at Chen Heng and observed his performance, but they couldn't calm down no matter what.
Beside the other party, with the other party as the center, the corpses of the Sea Clan are everywhere, which looks particularly terrifying.
Chen Heng's own clothes were also stained red, and he looked extraordinarily bloody.
As a third-level apprentice, his own physical fitness is not inferior to that of the great knight. In addition, he has reactivated the seed of life and made a further improvement in physical strength.
The current him, even if a great knight stood in front of him, he might not be his opponent.
Not to mention these sea people.
Soon, he achieved the desired result, and the corpses of the surrounding Sea Clan fell to the ground.
It's a pity that they are still fighting at this time.
Otherwise, Chen Heng must do something to drag all these corpses away and put them in his laboratory.
These are all sea people.
The Sea Clan, although the composition of this race is mixed, is it a unique bloodline creature? Its bloodline is quite different from that of ordinary humans.
If he could move all these Sea Clans into his own laboratory and extract their original blood, he would definitely gain a lot.
Thinking of this, Chen Heng couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
In front, an inexplicable ripple passed by.
Chen Heng paused slightly, and then quickly left his original position.
A shadow instantly enveloped the position where Chen Heng was standing.
Bursts of mana breath emerged and swept across the surroundings.
"Spell?"
Feeling the mana reaction that flashed in that place before, Chen Heng frowned secretly: "Among this group of Sea Clans, are there any priests of the Sea Clan?"
The priest of the Sea Clan, this is the nobleman of the Sea Clan, almost equivalent to a wizard among the Sea Clan.
I can't do it today, I took melatonin, and I'm so sleepy now.
update tomorrow
