Weird Wizarding World

  Chapter 369 Breaking Limits

  The mountains are densely forested, and the sun is falling.

  On the large open space outside the cave, Colin was practicing the breathing method, the green and gold fighting air flowed, and the wind howled between his gestures.

   Fortunately, this ground has been solidified by his witchcraft, making it flat and solid, otherwise it must be a scene of billowing sand and dust.

   Around the open space, a hidden witch array was also set up to hide all the movements of Colin's practice.

  This mountain forest is located in a remote area with few people.

  To this day, Colin has lived here for six days, and he feels a little isolated from the world... The main reason is that he can't enjoy the delicious meals made by Renee like before.

   But it's only two days since I left.

  At this moment, Colin paused slightly, and the green-gold grudge on his body suddenly swayed, as if it swelled slightly.

   Colin, who realized something, finished the current action, and with a thought, he called out the golden paper.

   As expected, the progress of the column of knight rank has finally reached 100/100, which means that it is possible to try to break through.

  Colin had a faint smile on his face, but he was not in a hurry to break through.

   At noon, he waited until his condition was adjusted to the best before he began to formally break through.

  The oval-shaped extraordinary organ in the lower abdomen pumps rapidly, and the green-gold battle energy flows through the limbs and bones like a wild horse, making a substantive turbulent sound.

  The invisible fluctuations spread in all directions, like a breeze, and the leaves of the surrounding green trees suddenly whirled.

  …

  Neustadt, in an ordinary study.

   "Another wizard was attacked?"

  Behind the brown desk, Fabol frowned deeply.

"Yes, my lord, this is the third attack that happened recently, and the deceased was a first-order wizard." The wizard wearing the law enforcement team's wizard robe lowered his head and reported, "The victims in the three attacks showed Although the wound marks are somewhat different, they are generally similar, and the body surface is covered with long-lasting frost."

   "Yes." Fabol nodded slowly, indicating that he understood.

  'An eventful autumn. ’ He sighed inwardly.

  After Operation Crimson, although the city was quiet for a while, as time went by, gradually, many ghosts and monsters appeared again.

Not only the recent serial case of some kind of monster attacking wizards, there are also many strange cases, such as a female wizard apprentice killing her mentor who often bullied herself as a first-order wizard... The wizard apprentice, killing A dead first-order wizard, how bizarre!

   Moreover, after the female apprentice finished doing this, for some unknown reason, she disintegrated into a puddle of flesh and blood, and her soul seemed to have completely disappeared without any trace.

   In addition, there was a sudden increase in the number of depraved and insane wizards, for different reasons.

  In the past, the reasons for the alienation and madness of wizards were mostly related to the study of witchcraft.

  However, in recent events, some wizards have no interest in studying knowledge, but they are still inexplicably alienated and depraved.

   Faboler faintly realized that there seemed to be a new undercurrent brewing in the city of Neustadt.

   "A few days ago, the wizard named Isidor, the wizard array in the basement of his residence, has a specific analysis report come out?" Fabol asked after thinking about it.

   "It's out." The reporting wizard replied, and took out the bound report from the storage ring in due course and handed it over.

  Before this, that is, on the day of the incident, they conducted a preliminary investigation on the witch formation in Isidor's basement, and determined that the effect of the witch formation was specially used to extract the energy of frost materials and provide energy for certain things or creatures.

   But the preliminary investigation can only go so far—in Isidor’s basement, and even on him, all the materials related to the basement were destroyed by him.

  The more detailed investigation, that is, the further analysis of Wuzhen, has only just been completed today.

  Fabole took the report and read it carefully.

  Speaking of which, it was after that day that there was a strange case of a wizard being attacked in the city.

  Such a coincidence, there is no reason for Fabol not to connect the two, but due to insufficient evidence, this is always just a conjecture—at least just now.

  Fabole put down the detailed analysis report, a flash of clarity flashed in his eyes.

  'Some kind of frost creature similar to ice elemental...'

  The attacks that happened in recent days are indeed inseparable from the previous case of Isidore!

  In other words, the ones that have been attacking the city recently are the unknown frost monsters bred in Isidor's basement.

  Fabole couldn't help but frown again when he thought of this.

   It is time for the Supreme Council to promulgate corresponding regulations to bring wizard research into unified management to avoid such accidents.

   Or at least file it.

  Fabole waved away the wizard who was reporting in front of him, pondered for a long time in the study alone, and finally wrote down the suggestion in his heart, then hurried out, stood up, his figure shrank rapidly, and he didn't know where he was going.

  ………

"pity…"

  In the dense forest, Colin stared at the gold paper in front of him and sighed secretly.

  The ground under his feet that had been reinforced with witchcraft was in a mess at the moment, with ravines and upturned soil everywhere.

  There is no doubt that the appearance of the ground is due to the impact of the knight's advancement.

  Yes, Colin successfully broke through the current knight level.

  However, he did not progress to a second-order knight in one fell swoop as he expected. Although whether it is a second-order knight or a first-order knight, it is just Colin's own name now.

  If he wanted to, as a knight who had opened up a new path, he could call the knight realm after this breakthrough a second-tier knight.

  But Colin didn't want to, at least for this breakthrough, the improvement he felt did not reach the level of qualitative change.

  If you have to say it, it is probably more appropriate to say that you have broken through from a first-order junior knight to a first-order intermediate knight.

  Colin put away the gold paper and carefully felt the changes in himself.

  The knight's halo has been strengthened by about 30 to 40%, and the fighting spirit cyclone in his body has become even larger.

  The 'battle qi core' inside, that is, the extraordinary organ in the lower abdomen, has also undergone some special changes—it has become more like a positive sphere, and its volume has also expanded slightly.

  Compared to the sorcerer, a wide and clear avenue that countless people have walked through, the knight is still an unknown path hidden in the dark forest.

   On this road, no one can help him, and there is no past information that can be used for reference.

  ‘Perhaps, should I find some more knight breathing techniques to learn? ’ thought Colin silently.

  Before Yiguang's breathing method broke the limit, a special channeling technique appeared, and it was because of this that he was able to successfully break through to the first-order knight. Of course, there was also a special influence of the heart of the ancient tree at that time.

   This time breaking the limit, Colin is still the same as before, by continuously compressing and increasing the energy in the body—that is, fighting spirit.

  This method is still very effective so far, but it is foreseeable that in the not-too-distant future, or the next time a knight breaks through the level, there will always be a situation where he can no longer improve the limit of the great knight.

   At that time, if you want to go further on the road of knights, you still have to rely on gold paper to break the limit.

   And using gold paper to break the limit, the more knight breathing methods the better, so that the knight breathing method will not turn golden again after one or two times, and the limit cannot be broken for the time being.

  ‘Go back to the city first. ’ Colin glanced around for a while, restraining his thoughts.

   After simply dealing with the traces here, they set foot on the return journey.

  It is now May 6th. Go back and get acquainted with the newly improved knight strength, and you will just go to the auction tomorrow.

   About two hours later.

  Colin came to a smaller wizard city - Alfred.

   This time he did not choose a place far away from Neustadt to retreat as before.

  Of course, the distance between Alfred and Neustadt is not that close, but it is still much closer than other wizard cities with teleportation arrays, and the teleportation cost is much less.

  Colin paid the fee and set foot on the teleportation array.

   Shua!

  The light of the teleportation array flashed, and in the next second, Colin returned to the familiar city of Neustadt again.

  It is just evening at this moment, the clouds in the distant sky are brilliant, and the setting sun is like fire.

  However, seeing this beautiful scene, Colin, who walked out of the Teleportation Administration, frowned slightly, and took out the school badge that was constantly flashing.

  ‘Colin Leonard, after receiving this notice, please go to the General Affairs Castle immediately to receive a new mandatory task. '

  ‘There is a new mandatory task? ’ Colin was slightly taken aback, but he didn’t resist as much as before.

  After all, even if the school does not issue mandatory tasks, after a while, at most, he will need to accept some school tasks to earn contribution points after the combination of witchcraft research is completed.

  As for the stumbling block that the pure-blood family may secretly make... As a second-level junior in actual level and a second-level advanced wizard in actual combat power, Colin is not too worried.

   Putting away the badge of the school, Colin continued to the general affairs building of the Xisheng School without stopping.

  The wizard on duty takes the badge of the school and puts it in the witch tool aside. Query:

   "Dear Your Excellency Leonard, your mandatory mission this time... well, there is an error in the feedback given by the crystal, I will take a closer look, wait a moment."

  Colin raised his eyebrows.

  The wizard on duty fiddled for a while, scratched his head and said, "The crystal shows that your task this time is to deliver a batch of supplies to the front line, but it has been cancelled."

   "What does it mean to cancel?" Colin asked doubtfully.

   "Did you just receive the school badge notification today?" asked the wizard on duty. He touched the crystal of the witch tool and said, "The crystal shows that the school sent you this compulsory task as early as four days ago."

   "I left Neustadt for something a few days ago." Colin replied.

   "No wonder, it may be that this mandatory task is more urgent, and it was assigned to someone else after you didn't answer." The wizard on duty explained, "Although such situations are rare, they have happened in the past."

   "Then do I still need to do mandatory tasks?" Colin asked after thinking about it.

   "I need it, but it's not this one." The wizard on duty nodded and suggested again,

   "It's best for you to stay in Neustadt recently. According to past experience, the school will reassign you a new mandatory task for at most half a month."

  Colin was a little speechless, and nodded expressionlessly.

"…I see."

  …

  The seventh day of the fifth month in the Aramaic calendar, in the afternoon.

  Walter Auction House.

  Colin walked out of the auction house door calmly, with no expression on his handsome face.

  But if you look closely, you can still see the surprise deep in his blue eyes.

   Perhaps the law of conservation of luck played a role. Yesterday the school brought bad news about mandatory tasks, but today's auction went smoothly.

  The flower of the cold thorn is a treasure that can arouse the response of the frost talent.

   Moreover, there were not too many people competing with him for this treasure in this auction house, and it was successfully auctioned for only 100,000 magic stones in the end.

  Did not go home, and walked quickly all the way to the laboratory of the True Knowledge Society. Colin closed his eyes and swallowed the flower of cold thorn.

  A bit of cold air seeped out from his mouth and nose, causing a layer of frost to condense on his eyebrows and temples.

  About ten minutes later, Colin summoned the golden paper with a thought.

  Looking directly at the Frost talent column, as expected, the progress behind it has reached 100/100!

   Without hesitation, Colin took out the magic stone and began to break the limit.

   Ten thousand... Twenty thousand... Thirty thousand... The value behind the breaking point soared all the way until it reached 300,000, and the ↑ symbol behind the frost talent finally lit up.

  Colin put away the remaining magic stones with some pain.

   Mana is earned quickly, but spent even faster.

  But if you think about it again, such expenses are also normal.

   After all, the current Frost talent is a powerful talent that allows him to release a powerful attack equivalent to the normal attack of a first-order wizard. It is strange that breaking the limit is not expensive.

   Moreover, the more magic stones consumed for breaking the limit, the stronger the frost talent is... Thinking of this, Colin immediately felt better.

  The magic stone didn't leave me, but stayed on me in a different way!

   Taking a slight breath, Colin concentrated and tapped heavily on the ↑ symbol.

  Boom!

  A circle of light blue chill suddenly spread from Colin who was sitting cross-legged towards the surroundings like a tide.

   At the same time, the sideburns and eyebrows that have just melted away are now covered with new frost.

   After an unknown amount of time, Colin opened his eyes, and the depths of his blue pupils were frosty and joyful.

  Frost talent, successfully broke the limit!

  Colin stood up slowly, and the frost on his eyebrows and temples melted away as if he had received an order. He waved his hand lightly, and a dark blue chill swept forward...

'good. ’ Feeling the talent after breaking the limit, Colin smiled slightly.

   Seems to have thought of something, he rested for a moment, then waved his hand gently, summoning the ice element.

  Now that the frost talent has successfully broken the limit, it is time to continue the previous research to see if it is really possible to make new progress in combination research as I thought!

   Everyone, pay attention to protection, it's still uncomfortable to be a sheep.
