The day the sun walked across thend in the month of zing Fire.
The scorching weather made people irritable and weak.
But inside the inner castle, there was a joyous atmosphere.
After continuously consuming four vials of Dragon Blood Potion, Kei sessfully broke through and became a Great Knight!
If Knights are the backbone and elite fighting force of a territory, then Great Knights are the mountain-like pirs.
In any country, Great Knights are undoubtedly a high-endbat force.
A Great Knight, who has mastered the externalization of martial energy, is like a tank-level war beast on the battlefield, invincible.
With Kei’s promotion to Great Knight, the shadow looming over ck Stone City from Shining Light City seemed to dissipate somewhat.
The festive atmosphere outside could not affect Su Nan.After his Star Ring Meditation Method was only a little over two hundred proficiency points away from upgrading, he shut himself in the meditation room, instructing others not to disturb him, and focused on preparing for his promotion.
Three dayster.
Su Nan sat cross-legged on the floor, his eyes closed.
Deep in his sea of consciousness, tiny energy particles merged into the third Star Ring illusion, filling in thest bit of its illusory form.
The moment the entire Star Ring solidified, an unprecedented tremor surged like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing his consciousness.
In silent tranquility, Su Nan felt as if he was drifting in the boundless starry gxy, with waves of invisible warmth flowing through his body, both inside and out. The indescribable ultimate joy brought by the ascension of his life essence filled every corner of his being.
After an unknown period of time, Su Nan gradually regained his senses and opened his eyes.
The world before him seemed to have been wiped clean of ayer of hazy dust, bing much clearer.
“Is this the feeling of promotion?”
A strong sense of joy surged through Su Nan’s heart. He hurriedly opened his panel.
[Su Nan · Arnest, Human Male, 17 Years Old]
[Spirit 13.25/Constitution 12.02]
[Skills]
Star Ring Meditation Method Lv4 (3/20000)
Potion Making Lv2 (2641/3000)
Creature Modification Lv1 (527/1000)
Puppetry Refining Lv2 (816/3000)
“My Spiritual Power increased by 1.27, a little less than expected, but it’s normal considering my original Spiritual Power was already close to 12.”
“Constitution hasn’t changed much, only increased by less than 0.5.”
A genuine smile bloomed on Su Nan’s face.
From this moment on, he was a Second-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice!
In the current Starlight Continent, a Second-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice is undoubtedly considered a strong individual!
He had taken another solid step on the path to bing a Wizard.
Taking a deep breath, Su Nan calmed the surging emotions in his heart and began to study the improvements brought by this promotion.
First, the most obvious change was the increased casting speed.
Magic Techniques like Master’s Hand, Acid Ssh, and Sleep Curse, all had their casting preparation time reduced by about one-third.
An increase of only one or two points of Spiritual Power was clearly insufficient to produce such an effect.
Su Nan guessed that it was because his Spiritual Power had broken through a certain threshold at 12 points, leading to a qualitative change from a quantitative increase, which was why his casting time had been significantly shortened.
Although it was only a reduction of one-third in casting time, in the ever-changing battlefield, even a blink of an eye could potentially determine the oue.
For a Wizard Apprentice, casting time was equivalent to life.
“Silent Casting and Instant Casting, such Super Magic Techniques require the promotion to Third-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice to learn and master. At this stage, reducing the casting preparation time to around one second is basically the limit.”
The second change was the control over energy particles.
Snap!
Su Nan snapped his fingers, and a pale blue glow suddenly lit up around him.
Ayer of water vapor emerged out of thin air, soaking him from head to toe.
Then, a fiery red glow lit up around him, and wisps of white water vapor rose, instantly evaporating the moisture, leaving him refreshed.
With the promotion to Second-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice, his Spiritual Power underwent a qualitative change. Now, Su Nan could preliminarily manipte energy particles, utilizing their properties to achieve effects close to magic.
For example, using water-type and fire-type energy particles to cleanse his body.
In addition, energy particles could also be used inbat.
Su Nan stretched out his palm, and a sh of azure light suddenly appeared in his palm. The next second, there was a crackling sound, and countless tiny arcs of electricity appeared out of thin air, wrapping around his palm and flickering.
Then, lightning transformed into zing mes, followed by a series of roaring wind scrolls, pure white frost, ominous ck shadows—various elements appeared in session.
Second-Rank Sorcerer Apprentices could materialize energy particles into elemental entities for attacks, or they could attach energy particles to weapons or their own bodies, imparting various elemental properties.
For example, attaching fire-type energy particles to a weapon, adding fire damage.
Attaching wind-type energy particles to the body, making the body more light and nimble.
And so on.
This was also why Second-Rank Sorcerer Apprentices were far more powerful than First-Rank Sorcerer Apprentices.
Even without casting spells, a Second-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice, relying on their own strong physique and the assistance of energy particles, could easily crush any level of Knight.
If they added spells to the mix, it wouldn’t be a problem to face a Great Knight head-on.
Not to mention that Second-Rank Sorcerer Apprentices could also use magic items and contract Magical Companions.
Speaking of magic items, Su Nan’s expression shifted, and he looked at the Blood Vine Ring he had been wearing on his index finger since he brought it back from the ckstone Mine Area.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Before, he could only sense the energy particles contained within the ring but could not manipte them.
But now, with a thought, he could activate the ring’s magic properties at any time.
The power of the Blood Vine Ring was enough to be one of his trump cards.
“There are also energy runes. Now, I can create energy rune gemstones.”
“Magical Companions are also on the agenda.”
Magical Companions are a type of magical creature. They are originally ordinary animals, strange beasts, or unusual species with special bloodlines. After contracting with a Wizard, they awaken special abilities and transform into Magical Companions.
Magical Companions are divided into auxiliary types andbat types.
Auxiliary Magical Companions are mostly various types of spirits, such as fairies, sprites, etc.
These types of Magical Companions usually have strong nt spirituality and can naturallymunicate with magical nts. They are very suitable for acting as gardeners to cultivate magical nts.
In addition, some Magical Companions are used by Wizard Apprentices as experimental assistants.
The types ofbat Magical Companions are much more diverse.
From small animals like bats, cats, lizards, owls, snakes, toads, to ferocious strange beastsparable to Knights, they can all be transformed intobat Magical Companions, assisting Wizard Apprentices in battle to kill enemies.
Some powerful Magical Companions can even be Wizard Apprentices’ trump cards, ying an indispensable role.
“The stronger the original creature, the stronger it will be after being transformed into a Magical Companion.”
“For the first time contracting a Magical Companion, the transformation target must be carefully selected.”
Wait!
Su Nan suddenly remembered.
Speaking of suitable transformation targets, wasn’t there one in the yard?
That giant lizard-like strange beast!
Su Nan’s eyes immediately lit up.
A strange beast with Dragon Lizard bloodline, if transformed into a Magical Companion, it would definitely be another powerful fighting force in his hands!
Worth a try!
