Chapter 58: Huge Improvement, Passing the Test
Chapter 58: Huge Improvement, Passing the Test
"Second-tier talent!"
Seeing the panel upgrade, Ian instantly felt the difference.
Moreover, compared to the previous upgrade from fourth to third grade... it's even stronger!
Much stronger!
Last time it felt like flowing water, this time it feels like a river.
It felt as if every cell in my body was being permeated by a mysterious power.
This time, Ian could clearly feel that many things were improving.
However, perhaps because Ian's mental strength was stronger, he did not fall into a coma this time.
Instead, they became immersed in this change.
In the blink of an eye.
Three days have passed.
Ian then opened his eyes.
The world before my eyes hasn't changed at all; what seems to have changed this time is... my brain?
Ian immediately felt a sense of unease.
At this moment, the world before my eyes seemed to have become two perspectives, one from the left eye and the other from the right eye.
They are connected, yet separated.
No, rather than saying it was a separation of functions, it's more accurate to say that his brain was operating on two parallel lines.
"Multitasking!"
Ian felt that only this word could adequately describe his situation.
He felt as if he could do two things at the same time.
"Give it a try!"
Ian didn't bring any books, but there was paper and pen placed to one side, and Ian started writing with both hands at the same time.
It runs very smoothly, with almost no impact whatsoever.
"He's really multitasking."
Stopping what he was doing, Ian felt a surge of joy.
Time has always been a significant limiting factor for him, but it is no longer an obstacle at this moment.
In the future, he will be able to study two subjects at the same time.
It just depends on how to do it specifically.
"This is getting interesting."
Ian was very satisfied with this.
And the surprises didn't end there.
Open the panel.
Age: 13
[Strength: First-class Wizard Apprentice (80/100), Grand Knight (50/100)]
[Talent: Three-star (254/600)]
The progress of the first-class wizard was directly increased from 65 to 80.
In the mental space, the number of mental runes has also increased from thirteen to sixteen.
This will save him at least three to four months.
At the same time, they caught up with Beck.
"Moreover, the duration and quality of my meditation have also improved at this time."
Ian's eyes flickered.
He can now meditate for up to twelve hours a day, and the quality of his meditation has improved by at least half again.
With the help of master-level meditation techniques, he might be able to condense a mental energy rune in less than a month.
Even if it were a competition to advance to the second-level wizard apprentice first, he might not lose to Baker.
Of course, he currently has no intention of revealing his progress in mental strength, and it would be more appropriate for him to advance to the intermediate pharmacist level.
"Luckily, there was the hidden ring."
Ian looked at the ring on his finger and felt a little relieved.
Ross is indeed a spy; this thing is really effective. At least for the past few months, even Vivian, a third-class wizard, has been completely unable to see Ian's progress.
"The next step is to advance to the training sequence as soon as possible, and then advance to the second-level wizard apprentice."
Ian narrowed his eyes slightly.
The difference between second-class and first-class talent is much greater, reaching a full 600 points, which is difficult to achieve in a short time.
Therefore, the most important thing now is to cultivate the talent sequence and advance to the second-level wizard.
I originally thought advancing to intermediate pharmacist would be faster, but now I can't say which one will be faster.
It's entirely possible that he could advance to the second-class wizard apprentice level even faster.
"I'll also ask what the requirements are for advancing to a second-tier wizard!"
Ian pursed his lips.
He actually hoped to advance first, because that would represent a huge boost in strength.
That way, we can be better prepared to deal with whatever happens in the future.
"And Hal too!"
Ian's gaze gradually turned cold.
That old guy was targeted terribly back then, and he has the potential to be a future enemy.
He felt uneasy about letting him live.
Once I've advanced to the second tier and am confident of victory, I'll take him down.
.......
Two days later.
It's time for Ian's training room.
"It's really nice, it's just a pity the price is too high."
Ian left with great reluctance.
The magic concentration in the beginner training room is 30% higher, but you only get two magic stones a day.
These all require long-term use to be effective, but where would a typical wizard find so many magic stones to spend?
"Perhaps an intermediate-level pharmacist could do it."
Ian had some expectations.
Once you advance to the intermediate level, you can establish your own laboratory and earn a share of the profits.
This is a complete leap across social classes.
He went from being exploited to becoming an exploiter, which greatly enhanced his status within the academy.
Of course, there are also culture sequences.
"What specific permissions does the culture sequence have?"
At this point, Ian still didn't know the specifics.
All I know is that this is important.
It's not just Mickey who cares.
Even the allocation of power in a new department can be related to this.
"You'll find out once you're inside."
Ian's gaze gradually hardened.
.....
One day later.
After a short rest, Ian arrived at the Potions Department.
They knocked on Vivian's door.
"Enter!"
A familiar voice rang out, and Ian slowly walked in.
"Ian? You must have just received the materials for the inheritance, right?"
Vivian looked up at Ian and asked instinctively.
At the beginning of each month, she would give Ian new materials for potion inheritance, also to help him understand the progress.
This was also what horrified her the most.
Because Ian learns magic so quickly.
In just three months, they have all entered the second stage and have basically reached the standard for preparing intermediate-level medicines.
It's worth noting that it took her a year and a half to reach this stage, while it took Victor ten months.
Ian only took five months.
So although Baker was making good progress, she wasn't too worried. The only problem was when Ian would be able to master the four advanced potions.
"Minister, I didn't come here to pick up some materials, did I?"
Ian shook his head.
"And who are you?"
Vivian had a question.
"Minister, I have mastered all four advanced potions. I would like to learn intermediate potions."
Ian said directly.
"What?"
"Have you mastered all four types of advanced potions?"
Vivian stood up instantly.
She had delegated the authority to Granger, so she hadn't interfered, but she learned from Granger that Ian's progress wasn't slow, so she stopped interfering after that.
Because in her mind, even if Ian was really talented, this step would still take at least five or six months.
but.....
"It's only been four months, almost a different medicine every month."
Vivian also felt her breathing become a little rapid.
To be able to master advanced potion preparation within a month is an astonishing talent in potion making.
He might even surpass Victor.
"Um."
Ian nodded again.
"Let's test it out."
Vivian wasn't sure this time either, so she decided to test it out.
This is also a regulation that requires assessment before exchanging for intermediate-level potion formulas.
Soon, twenty sets of materials were delivered, and a recording crystal was placed in place.
Ian didn't waste any time and started configuring it directly.
This time he didn't show any master-level skill either; he just managed to configure three of each type.
They almost passed through the line.
"Can."
Vivian slowly put away the crystal.
no doubt.
Whether it's witchcraft or potions, Ian has reached the level of crafting intermediate potions with zero rings.
"Congratulations, you passed the test."
Vivian smiled.
The way they looked at Ian showed an unprecedented level of importance.
