Weird Wizarding World

  Chapter 353 inspection

  The snow field is vague, and the goose feather flying snow falls like a curtain.

  In an ice cave, Colin raised his hand and looked at the harvest—a transparent flower like an ice sculpture.

  He looked up at the golden paper that appeared in front of him. In the column named different spells below, the progress behind Anando's dice had reached 36/100.

  Since acquiring this strange spell, Colin waited for it to cool down every week, and if there were no accidents, he would cast it as soon as possible.

  Most of the time before that, he was either in Neustadt or in other inconvenient places, and he didn't deliberately search for treasures, so he has always gained very little.

  However, when he came to the extreme north this time, Colin planned from the beginning to try to use Anando's dice after the mission to see if he could get some good things.

   After all, today is different from the past, he is short of magic stones, if he can find some treasures, even if he can't use them, at least he can exchange for some magic stones.

  Placing the ice flower on the stone platform where it grew temporarily, Colin took out a cold bead from his hand, which was a treasure taken from the belly of a strange transparent fish.

  The result of Anando's dice this time was very good, it was four points.

  It's a pity that Colin only got three of them in the end, and besides the two he took out now, there is another one that is a tiny strange snowflake.

  Colin recognized that snowflake, called the crystal of extreme cold, which is a good magic material, and it can sell at least 100,000 magic stones in the city of Neustadt.

  As for the fourth one, it was in the depths of the extreme north. After flying forward for a certain distance, the frost talent faintly reminded him of the danger ahead.

   After weighing, Colin finally chose to give up.

  In any case, Zhenbao is just icing on the cake for him now, there is no need to take too much risk for it.

   Picking up the cold bead to look at, putting it down and picking up the ice sculpture next to it, Colin hesitated, followed the intuition brought by the new frost talent in his heart, and swallowed it.

  The entrance of the ice flower, like swallowing cotton candy, melted instantly, and a blue light flashed in Colin's eyes, which was the expression of overflowing energy.

   About ten minutes later, Colin looked at the gold paper.

  In the talent column, the progress behind the Frost talent has suddenly advanced by a full 45 points!

  It is important to know that the improvement of talents is not like witchcraft or meditation, which can be improved only by practicing.

   The progress behind the super brain talent obtained when advancing to the first-level wizard is always 0, and it is only after the advanced second-level wizard that the progress is increased by 50 points due to the increase in level.

  As for the talent of strong life, it is also necessary to increase the progress indirectly by improving the knight's breathing method and knight level.

  After obtaining the frost talent by accident, Colin was thinking about how to improve this talent, but he didn't expect the surprise to come so suddenly...

  In order to test whether this was an isolated case, Colin followed his thoughts, and then swallowed the ball obtained from the transparent fish.

  As ice cream melted, a chill spread in Colin's stomach, and his eyes were fixed on the gold paper.

   A moment later, after Talent: Frost, a ↑ symbol flashed indistinctly.

  Colin was delighted.

  As the energy of the fish belly ball is gradually absorbed, the progress behind the frost talent also keeps beating.

   After about five minutes, the energy of the ball was completely absorbed, and the progress behind the frost talent was also fixed at 69/100.

   Shua!

  A thick and transparent ice spike from the thigh suddenly emerged from the ground, with a cold light shining from the sharp top, and it poked into the top of the ice cave with a bang in the blink of an eye.

   Suddenly, shattered ice splashed and the dome shook.

  Colin watched the movement, and nodded in satisfaction.

  69's progress improvement does not seem to be much, but compared to the performance when he first got the frost talent, it is still much better.

  The power of this spike has probably reached the threshold of first-order witchcraft, and it does not need to consume magic power, and the consumption of spirit is also very small, so it is somewhat practical.

  Of course, this is in such a cold place. If you leave the extreme north, if it is hot summer, it will not be so easy to summon such powerful ice spikes.

   After slightly recovering the magic power in his body, Colin walked out of the ice cave.

  The cold wind swished, rolling up fine ice slag.

  He looked back in the direction of Gubei Village, but only saw a darkness like thick ink.

  ‘The cold night has arrived. ’ Colin knew it.

  Among the months-long polar night in the extreme north, there is also a special day of about half a month called—cold night.

  Even the starlight will completely disappear during this time, and the extreme north will be so cold that it doesn’t feel like the world.

  Colin looked back silently, he thought of the teenager who lost his wife. I don't know how he will follow the compass across the ice sheet on such a day, and go to the... place of hope that can give him a chance.

   Whoosh!

  Colin stands up straight from the ground, protected by a steel temperature-resistant force field, and the cold wind can't even mess up the corners of his clothes.

  Han Ye is just an ordinary night for a second-level wizard like him.

   After half a day.

  Colin arrives in Karalli City.

  Looking at the familiar city gate, Colin suddenly remembered the prying eyes he felt here.

  ‘Could it be Joyce? '

  But soon, he shook his head again, "Joyce is only one person, and the sense of peeping that he felt at that time should be two..."

   Such thoughts made Colin frowned slightly.

  He didn't know whether Joyce's coming this time was his own behavior or the order of the Hidros family... After all, no matter how useless Joyce is, he is also a member of the pure-blood family.

  If the Xidos family ordered him to kill him himself, I am afraid there will be some troubles...

  But I have completely destroyed Joyce, and in a place like the extreme north, I have little hope of finding evidence that I killed Joyce...

  Colin was thinking while walking towards the teleportation array.

   After pondering for a while, he ruled out the possibility that Joyce might have been instigated by the Hidos family.

  Although I don’t have much feeling, but I am still a golden feather now, and the attitude of the Hidos family on the surface is mainly to make friends...It is impossible to say one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes.

   What's more, if it was really instigated by the Sidos family, there is a high probability that Joyce will not be the only one who attacked and killed him this time.

  The complicated thoughts gradually dissipated, and Colin calmed down a little, and walked into the teleportation place.

   "Excuse me, what is your destination?"

   "Neustadt."

   After handing in the magic stone, Colin calmly stepped onto the teleportation array.

   Shua!

  Accompanied by the dazzling white light, the feeling of falling hits instantly, the field of vision suddenly becomes dark, and the next moment it suddenly lights up again.

  Colin felt as if he had set foot on the ground again, but the scene in front of him was no longer the city of Karalli.

   It is still morning, the streets are bustling with people, a lively scene.

   There is no endless cold wind, blade-like snowflakes... Even the snow on the roadside seems to be warmer than Gubei Village.

  Standing in the hall of the General Transmission Administration and looking out the door, Colin couldn't help but relax a little, but soon felt a little heavy in his heart.

  ‘Don’t you think it’s a bit unfair? ’ Shelley’s words seemed to still linger in his ears.

  Colin stood there for a moment, shook his head slightly, and strode towards the entrance of the Transmission Administration.

  This transportation hub is as lively as ever, with wizards constantly entering through the door, ready to go elsewhere.

  Just as Colin walked to the door, he suddenly heard a slightly nervous and crisp female voice coming from the loudspeaker crystal behind him:

   "Good morning, wizards, I received an urgent notice: there is a technical failure in the teleportation array, and all teleportation services are temporarily suspended. Our relevant wizards are in urgent repairs. Please wait patiently, or come back tomorrow."

  Colin paused for a while, and looked back in surprise.

"Um?!"

"error occured…?"

   "Hey, what's going on in this city recently, there are battles every day, and now the teleportation array is broken again."

  There was constant noise in the hall, but the teleportation array was the property of the Supreme Council, so no one dared to say anything.

   Looking away, Colin continued to walk outside.

   I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. If I delay for a moment, I'm afraid I will have to wait for the teleportation array to be repaired before returning to Neustadt.

  The inadvertent luck eased the inexplicable heaviness in Colin's heart. Instead of going home, he came to the school first along the way, ready to confirm the completion of the task.

  However, after crossing Zuo Ao and You Ao and stepping into the residence of Xisheng School, Colin suddenly sensed something was wrong.

  The wizards who came and went on the school road were mostly in a hurry, and they basically all walked in the same direction.

  Just when Colin was in doubt, the school badge on his chest lit up belatedly, and a message came:

   "Colin Leonard, after receiving this notice, please go to the lawn in front of the General Affairs Castle to gather immediately."

   "I don't know what the school called us to do this time." A bearded male wizard who passed by saw the light of Colin's badge, and said familiarly.

   "Have you also received this notice?" Colin suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked.

"Yeah, it's not just me. I think most of the wizards on this road are like this." The bearded wizard shook his head and quickened his pace. Maybe there will be punishment."

  Colin nodded, did not answer, and followed the crowd silently towards the lawn of the General Affairs Castle.

  But in his mind, he was inexplicably reminded of the sudden notification from the General Administration of Transmission to suspend the transmission service just now...

   It seems that during the time he left Neustadt, something happened that he didn't know about.

   Came to the lawn of the General Affairs Building.

  The place was already crowded with people. Colin looked around and could tell from the badges that besides these first-tier wizards, there were also many second-tier wizards and some senior wizard apprentices.

  In front of the crowd, an old man with white beard and hair was floating in the air, with a calm expression, dressed in a white robe, and holding a brown wand in the shape of a branch in his hand.

  He didn't say much, but all the wizards who came closed their mouths consciously, and stood obediently and neatly on the lawn.

  'Master Eggberg...' The bearded wizard looked at the old man in awe, and quickly stepped into the crowd with his mouth closed.

  The same is true for Colin, his body tensed slightly.

   I don’t know if I can hide from the third-tier wizard in front of me with the fog of spiritual seeds and Hayden’s pseudo-energy after breaking the limit...

  Perhaps after advancing to the second level, the soul became stronger and more sensitive. When Colin saw the third-level Eggberg in front of him, he felt that the energy contained in his body was as deep as the sea, which was shocking.

   No wonder whether it is Atebold’s mentor or the knowledge he has learned, it is said that the third level is a watershed for wizards, and only after stepping into the third level can he be barely worthy of the title of high-level wizard.

   "Colin? Have you finished the task?"

  At this time, another familiar voice came from behind.

   "Mentor." Colin turned his head in surprise, and the tall Atbold appeared behind him.

   Did even the mentor come?

  Colin was taken aback for a moment, and continued: "I finished the task, and I just returned to the city. I was about to come to the General Affairs Building to confirm the completion of the task, but I received a summoning message from the school."

   "I see." Atbold nodded and said with a smile, "It's good that the task is successfully completed."

   "Mentor... Do you know why the school summoned us?" Collin paused and asked again.

   "I don't know." Atbold shook his head, and his old face was also a little confused.

  Colin was full of doubts, but he couldn't get an answer.

   After all, Atbold is just an unpopular mixed-blood second-order wizard in a school, and what he can know is indeed limited.

   "Since everyone is here, I'll start." In mid-air, Eggberg suddenly said lightly.

  As his voice fell, several equally powerful third-tier wizards appeared.

   Immediately afterwards, before Colin and others could react.

   Shua!

  A transparent mask unfolded instantly, covering the wizards in the lawn in the blink of an eye, isolating them from the outside world.

  A trace of panic flashed across the faces of the wizards present.

"do not be afraid."

  Seeing the complete formation of the restraint mask, Eggberg began to explain slowly:

   "Relax, everyone, this time you are called here in response to the order of the Supreme Council to inspect the members of the school.

  Before everyone, we wizards of the third level and above have also passed the test. "

  'Test... what test? '

  Colin was slightly startled, and a little panic climbed into his heart like a shadow.

   "Quiet." Eggberg said lightly, "I just want to make one request - please relax your body and don't resist, otherwise you will be regarded as an undercover agent of the gods. Don't blame us for being merciless!"

  'It turned out to be a test to see if the gods were undercover! ? ’ Colin was stunned for a moment, and he couldn’t help but feel a little surprised when he relaxed a little, ‘Could it be that Noyce has successfully improved the Crimson Mark technique? '

  The answer to his question was a crimson blood-like light that spread from Eggberg's hand.

  The rays of light rippling like ripples in circles, sweeping over the wizards and Colin below, and also made the latter confirm his conjecture in his heart.

   These **** ripples, although very different from the original crimson mark technique, not only the way it is cast has changed, but the energy fluctuations seem to have become at least a third-level witchcraft.

  But in the eyes of Colin, who has mastered the crimson mark technique of breaking the limit twice, he can still see a trace of the original crimson mark technique.

  'Noyce actually succeeded in improving the crimson mark technique! '

  Colin felt joy in his heart, whether it was going to perform compulsory tasks or the days of practicing in the True Knowledge Association.

  He didn't forget to practice the crimson mark technique, the purpose is to see if it can help Noyce improve the crimson mark technique as soon as possible, so as to deal with the new camouflage imposed by the gods on the elves and possible undercover agents.

   Under the overturned nest, there are dead eggs. As a wizard, the gods are the biggest enemy.

   Don't you see, even Shelley of the Truth Society is on the same front as the pure-blood family when it comes to dealing with gods.

  Now Noyce has successfully improved the crimson mark technique, which is a happy thing for every wizard, and Colin is naturally no exception.

   The **** ripple swept away all the wizards present in an instant.

   In mid-air, Eggberg observed carefully.

   After a while, he was slightly relieved that no one had turned red, and with a smile on his face, he said loudly:

   "Wizards below the second level are disbanded on their own, but they are not allowed to leave the school's resident within one day."

   "As for the wizards above the second level..." Eggberg raised his scepter and pointed it into the distance, "Follow us, go and dig out the hidden scum in the city, and crush them one by one!"
