Weird Wizarding World

  Chapter 360 Successful Advancement

  After leaving Isidor's residence, Colin plunged into the laboratory.

  The problem of the miracle is simple—it needs to add another structure that can independently absorb energy from the outside world and maintain its own existence.

   But in fact, it is very complicated to operate, and there are too many places to pay attention to.

  This kind of elemental puppet is equivalent to a human being without eating function, without esophagus, stomach, and large and small intestines.

  —and it doesn't exist genetically.

  It is not easy to add a self-consistent and stable energy intake structure to it the day after tomorrow.

  Colin sat behind the silver-white experimental table, closing his eyes to check the summoned ice elemental crystal.

   Somehow, he felt that he liked studying witchcraft more and more.

  A difficult commission like a miracle not only did not discourage him, but aroused his interest.

  A life with smooth sailing and no waves is as boring as a life with a head in sight.

  Some challenges are better!

   Soon, however, Colin encountered his first problem.

  The next day, Isidore's residence.

  Colin frowned and looked at Isidor, paused and said in a deep voice:

   "If I don't have access to miracles, then I can't do research."

  Isidore behaved perfectly normal in all the rest of the time, but when dealing with things related to miracles, he was particularly... sick.

  He is not willing to expose himself to miracles? !

  If you can't contact the target of treatment, then what's the point of treatment.

  Isidore smiled, but did not budge, just said:

   "Your Excellency Wood Demon, Miracle's body structure is no different from ordinary ice elements.

  The means that can work on ordinary ice elements can work on miracles. The witchcraft you delivered before has proved this point. "

   "If you need substantial research materials, I have already given you the summoning witchcraft, and you can summon the ice element yourself for research.

  Of course, if I need to cooperate with the call for help, there is no problem, but the timing needs to be coordinated. "

  Colin looked at Isidor carefully, and asked again:

   "There is not much time left for miracles. This may work, but it will inevitably waste more time."

   "What's more, according to what you said, even though Miracle's body is no different from ordinary ice elements, there is an essential difference in spirit.

   If there is a difference, it may have an impact. Even if the experiment is successful on the ice element, no one can guarantee that it will be successful on Miracle. If it is not successful, then it will still have to..."

   "I understand, Your Excellency the Wooden Demon." Isidore interrupted Colin's words.

  He glanced back at the icicle behind him, the light gray pupils under the white eyebrows contained sickly love and indifference.

   "But so be it, if it is feasible for ice elements but not for miracles, then it can only be said that fate is destined to be so."

  Colin stretched his brows and said nothing more.

  Other clients are willing to accept such risks, so what can he say as a wizard who takes money to do things?

  Colin finally took a deep look at the miracle in the light blue icicle, turned and left.

   Miracle, who looks like a young girl, has her eyes closed, sinking and floating in the icicles, and her crystal light blue hair is scattered like water plants...

  In the following time, Colin put off his research and started learning to summon ice elements first.

   It is not a long-term solution for Isidor to help summon ice elements for research. He finally decided to learn to summon ice elements by himself.

   Only when the ice element is summoned, can there be materials and research.

   With the gold paper in hand, after about ten days, Colin was able to summon the ice element by chanting a spell, and finally he was able to officially start research.

  But on this day, there is another piece of good news—

   Lilian has successfully advanced to a second-tier wizard!

  March 11 in the Aramaic calendar, Atbold's residence.

   Time flies and it is already March, and the breath of winter is gradually fading, replaced by the breath of spring, and the dead trees in Neustadt have sprouted buds one after another.

   Of course, the same is true of Atbold's residence.

  The withered yellow grass that was covered by white snow once again reveals its dark brown color, dotted with fresh green, although it is small but full of vitality, people can't help but feel happy when they see it.

  In the open space outside the wooden house, Atbold set up a simple oven, next to it was a long wooden table that seemed to grow out of the ground, filled with various ingredients.

  Colin couldn't help thinking about the monthly gatherings of the Rudolph faction.

  The morning was also so sunny at that time. The apprentices gathered on the third floor of the villa, had something to eat together, chatted, asked the instructor questions, and looked up at the senior sister Lilian who was an official wizard next to her.

  Now, only the sun remains.

   "Good morning, mentor, senior."

  Colin exhaled lightly, smiled and walked up to greet him.

   "Good morning." Atbold turned around with a smile. Behind him, a field of flowers was swaying in the wind.

   Lilian also turned her head and smiled at him.

   I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Colin always feels that Lilian’s current appearance seems to be older.

  Before, her normal state was at most a twelve or thirteen-year-old loli image, but now she looks like she should be thirteen or fourteen.

   "Congratulations, senior, for successfully becoming a second-level wizard!"

  Colin continued to congratulate, and walked to the table to help with the ingredients.

   "Thank you." Lilian pursed her lips and smiled, looked at Colin after thinking for a while and asked, "How is the student's point accumulation, do you need my help?"

Colin paused slightly, smiled and shook his head, "It's slowly accumulating, I've just advanced to the first level not long ago, don't worry. I plan to focus on learning knowledge during this time, and wait for the time to come It’s time to think about advancing.”

   "Very good, realm is not the real foundation of a wizard, knowledge is." Lilian nodded, and then smiled playfully:

   "If you need help, you can always come to me... After all, maybe it won't be too long before you will surpass me again."

  Although she said so, Lilian felt that even if it would not take too long, it would take a year or two for Colin to surpass her again in terms of strength...

  She looked up at Colin.

   At least for the past two years, she can barely maintain the dignity of the senior sister, and help Colin a little.

  The celebration this time is very simple, that is, everyone sits together to barbecue and chat.

  Sometimes, less people will make you warmer, and more people will make you lonelier.

   Now that only the three of them and a flower are left in the Rudolph faction, the atmosphere of the party is even more lively.

  The heat of the charcoal fire carried the aroma of the food and wafted around. Halfway through the party, Atbold suddenly paused and said:

   "There are people from Black Castle coming outside."

  Colin frowned slightly. He didn't have a good impression of Black Castle.

  However, this time the visitors from Blacksburg really brought good news.

  "Your Excellency Lilian." The visitor was an apprentice. He lowered his head and handed the silver feather nameplate to Lilian respectfully. "This is your silver feather nameplate. Please keep it safe."

   Lilian took over Silver Feather, and the apprentice resigned and left.

   "But it took me quite a while to become a second-level wizard, why can I still get the silver feather nameplate?" But Lilian was still a little puzzled looking at the silver feather nameplate.

   Atbold smiled, but there was no surprise, "Because you are an elf hybrid, and your lifespan is several times that of an ordinary wizard. If you were a human age, the time you advanced to the second stage is not too long."

  Atbold has memories in his eyes, "I haven't told you before, but earlier, members of the Rudolph family were at least copper feathers.

   "Congratulations, senior." Colin sent his blessings in due course.

   Lilian smiled and put away the nameplate.

  No matter what, the benefits brought by Silver Feather are real, and this can be regarded as a surprise!

  The three returned to the oven again.

   "Lilian, if you want to go further, then you should probably find a faction to join." Atbold said suddenly.

   Colin paused slightly, and Atbold had said similar things to him before.

  He turned his head and looked at Lilian.

  The latter was also startled, put down the barbecue in his hand, thought for a while and said: "It depends on whether we can find a suitable faction."

   "You are already Silver Feather, and you have much more options than before." Atbold continued to add.

   Lilian's complexion was a little downcast.

   Atbold did not shy away from Colin, and continued: "The Rudolph family is a thing of the past, but you still need to move forward, Lilian."

   Then Atbold turned his head to look at Colin, and continued: "Colin, you are the same."

   "The more you go up, the more you will find that resources are lacking and the road is difficult..."

  The charcoal is burning in the oven, and Atbold's voice is long.

  After half a sound, Lilian was silent for a moment, but still nodded: "I know, grandfather."

  The glory of the family may not be able to be reproduced again?

  Lilian doesn't know, but she misses the time when her parents were both there. At that time, the Rudolph family had emaciated camels that were bigger than horses, and even had his father's golden feather, which seemed to be a sign of a comeback...

  But everything was like a dream bubble, and it disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.

   For the next few decades, Lilian lived under the exclusion of miscellaneous blood, and the occasional good intentions were mostly hidden in evil intentions.

   "The Rudolph family will not disappear." She murmured in her heart, and the joy of being an advanced second-level wizard suddenly turned into a heavy responsibility.

  Grandfather Atbold may no longer desire to restore the glory of the family, and she may no longer be able to restore the glory of the Rudolph family.

  But she at least...at least, wants to prove to those people that she can still become a high-ranking wizard, and that mixed blood is not inherently inferior!

   Colin is naturally unaware of the complicated psychological activities in Lilian's heart.

  Just feeling Atbold's gaze, he still nodded in agreement.

   After all, Atbold has no other intentions, but hopes that they can all move on, live better, and climb higher.

  However, only you know your own situation.

  Colin didn't change his mind.

  Compared to the faction's path that can be called easier for most people, the path he is taking now is a better path for him.
