Systemic

Chapter 58 Systemic

Elemental wizardry is the most powerful system in the wizarding world, a fact acknowledged by all wizards.

It is not that elemental wizards possess overwhelming power, but rather that they possess the most comprehensive and systematic division of energy manipulation. Each level of elemental wizard will give rise to corresponding level of abilities, thereby generating a powerful force that can manipulate the rules of all things.

Wizards from other systems, and even those otherworldly creatures, can only be said to possess combat power comparable to a level of elemental wizards or be able to manipulate and control the energy of a level of wizard; they do not have a standard classification of energy manipulation levels.

For example, the planet-like creature that Green encountered in the Dark Well of Zerato Harbor, who claimed to be a fourth-order Star Spirit from the Boundary Star World, could only control energy at the level of a second-order to third-order wizard.

The reason for this so-called "between" is that the way they enhance their power is similar to passive evolution, which infinitely improves their physical attributes. This causes them to rely on their physical attributes to fight against wizards, which is a kind of gradual evolution.

Unlike elemental wizards, which have different levels of special abilities, elemental wizards do not have a strict hierarchy where level one is level one and level two is level two.

Perhaps the difference between a fourth-tier and a fifth-tier Star Spirit is only a few points in attack power; their actual combat strength is no different at all.

According to the Wizarding Continent, this is a creature with the combat power of a level two or three wizard.

For six months, Green spent his time in his mentor Peranos's laboratory.

During this period, Green did not spend all his time studying the knowledge of mixed poison body-refining witchcraft. He also continued to study elemental witchcraft, and made considerable progress.

Green was confident that he could upgrade the Firebird Elemental Magic Circle to the Firebat Elemental Magic Circle within a year, increasing the leverage of the elemental magic circle from about nine times to ten times.

In addition, Green has made considerable progress in elemental activation magic, but he lacks a catalyst to guide the elemental activation.

To put it simply, different wizards require different catalysts because of their different constitutions, ways of thinking, inspirations, and opportunities. Just like the same basic six-pointed star elemental magic circle, which is drawn by 1024 runes for all wizards, each person is more or less different.

The so-called elemental activation refers to the elemental creatures summoned by the wizard.

A witch apprentice in the Trial Grounds once summoned a giant earth elemental bear, and Belle once summoned a small earth elemental mouse.

In addition, there's the rare fire element rune with the undying characteristic in Grimm's soul. Grimm is trying again and again to add it to his basic elemental magic circle to replace some of the runes with auxiliary functions, without destroying the leverage characteristic of the elemental magic circle, so as to fully exert the power of this undying fire element rune.

This required a lot of trial and error, but because Green prioritized this task over all other experiments, progress was very rapid.

Within six months at most, Green will be able to fully integrate this rare fire element rune into the basic elemental magic circle to unleash its immortality!

At that time, Green will essentially possess an attack method with the same strength as Leona's Golden Pupil talent.

goooo...

Feeling a bit hungry, Green sighed and put down the book in his hand.

Professor Peranos went to the Seventh Ring Tower, and it will take at least two or three months to make the round trip. By then, Green's living humanoid biological experimental subject can be brought back along the way.

With a living humanoid biological test subject, Green's research into that mysterious forbidden zone of life's code will make further breakthroughs, and perhaps he will be able to use this knowledge to improve himself.

This knowledge of life code witchcraft is unique to Green, an unknown field of knowledge that has never been developed before.

"It's time to go check on Raffi, and also to retrieve the microscope and magic stone profits from Fatty's place."

Thinking of Raffi, whom he hadn't seen for half a year, Green's mind started racing, and his heart pounded a few times.

Boom, boom, boom...

There was a knock on the laboratory door, and Green knew exactly who it was.

As he started to walk and opened the door, a neatly dressed girl appeared in Green's field of vision, carrying a lunchbox in her hand.

"I've already sent Lord Gahe's share. Grin, this is yours."

The girl's sweet smile was as bright and fiery as the summer sun. She had short black hair, healthy buckwheat-colored skin, her legs were straight and her body was slightly leaning back. She playfully held the lunchbox in front of Green with an expectant expression.

Looking at the energetic girl and smelling the delicious aroma from the lunchbox, Green quickly said, "It smells so good, thank you."

"Hmph, of course, it doesn't even matter who did it."

The girl looked smug, then skipped over to Green, put her arm around his neck, and chuckled like a buddy.

"Dean Peranos isn't here, and I've taken care of Lord Gahei as well. Hehe, I'm going to visit the Wizard's Library. You won't tell the Wizard, will you?"

The girl's knowing look meant that if Green dared to try and get some benefits like Varo did, it would be incredibly unfair.

Green smiled.

The girl's name is Leona, and she was Grimm's previous wizard apprentice.

The reason she took on the time-consuming and laborious task of delivering meals to the 79th floor of the Black Tower was not only because of the generous reward of 20 magic stones per month, but also because she could view the Peranos Library for free at certain times.

In this wizarding academy where knowledge is magic stones, unless one studies it oneself or is taught by a master or apprentice, any way to acquire knowledge will require spending a large amount of magic stones, something Green knows all too well.

This is a sign of respect for knowledge; the harder it is to obtain, the more people desire and cherish it!

Without making a sound, Green said in a serious tone, "Professor Peranos won't be back for a month, so Senior Leona doesn't need to bring him meals during that time. Also, Professor Alice might be coming up in seven days, so you don't need to come that day."

Green's meaning was clear: he was reminding Leona to keep track of the time.

Pfft!

Leona couldn't help but chuckle, then said with a mischievous grin, "Thanks, but why are you always so far away from me? Are you perhaps a...?"

"Uh! I have a girlfriend!"

Green's expression changed, and he quickly emphasized loudly and righteously.

"Hmph, look how nervous you are. So what if you have a girlfriend? How about it, interested in doing something exciting? I promise I won't tell your girlfriend."

Leona teased Green, winking twice with her right eye, revealing an indescribable wildness beneath her long eyelashes.

"I'll consider it when I don't want to live anymore."

Green left, his face flushed.

If Raffi knew that Green had such a wild and untamed senior who delivered his meals, something extremely cruel would definitely happen, and the scene would be incredibly bloody.

"Haha, she really is just a little cutie."

Leona looked at Green's shy expression, and although she knew that nothing could happen between them, she couldn't help but tease him a little.

If it were a seasoned male wizard apprentice, Leona wouldn't have the same interest.

Leona shook her head gently. She was always in a good mood whenever she saw Green, and happily walked into the wizard Peranos's private library.

……

One day later.

After chatting casually with Varo on the seventh floor of the Black Tower for a while, Green went to the fat man's place on the first floor. After the fat man finished his work for a while, the two went to the fat man's private warehouse.

"Look, this is the highest-grade microscope you can buy in the Seven Rings Holy Tower. It's a high-end item that only the top-tier alchemists are equipped with, and it's worth two high-grade magic stones. These magic stones are your share of the profits over the past six months after deducting the cost of purchasing this microscope."

The fat man handed Green a bag.

Green didn't look at the magic stone; instead, he walked towards the microscope with anticipation in his eyes.

However, after a moment, Green's expression turned grim as he said, "This microscope is already the most advanced microscope in the Seven Rings Tower?"

The fat man's eyes, which had been squeezed into slits by his flesh, widened in surprise. "What? Even this high-end stuff isn't enough for your experimental research? If this isn't enough, then the only thing in the wizarding world that might exist is the legendary Sky City, the Holy Tower. There might be even more advanced microscopes there."

Green frowned.

The magnification of this microscope is exactly the same as that of the microscope in Professor Peranos's laboratory.

In that case, further research into the forbidden zone of the life code will indeed have to rely on horseflies...

After a while, Green returned to his cabin, checked that everything in his laboratory was normal, and then took out the crystal ball.

After a moment, Green was taken aback and said, "Raffi isn't at the Wizarding Academy? Jochlis, Binghamson, and the others aren't here either? The crystal ball can't even sense their approximate location."

Somewhat disappointed, Green simply headed towards the college library.

The college library was different from Professor Peranos's private collection.

Peranos's private library mainly collects books based on personal preferences, while the academy library collects books based on fundamental, systematic, stable, and public accessibility. Green's next step in his research on the code of life will involve some basic knowledge of curse magic to verify certain conjectures.
