The Wizard's Secret Journey

Chapter 114 Familiar Knowledge and Chance Encounters (11)

Felicity took Lynn out of the laboratory and came to the study next door.

The old wizard picked up a paper from the desk beside him and handed it to Lin En:

"Take a look yourself first, and I'll explain it to you when the rest of the people are here."

Only then did Lin En realize that there were more Silver Ring apprentices to take on this mission.

He felt a little more at ease and took the booklet with a little expectation. There was no name on it. He opened the first page and was immediately disappointed.

This is not the original knowledge of the other world, but a handwritten translation.

Lynn continued reading. Felicity did not name this knowledge, but used the number 016 as a synonym.

According to the text, the knowledge of 016 can split the mind into tiny parts, and at the same time make these tiny parts attach to objects of suitable materials.

"It does look a bit like the Green Shadow Mark." Lin En thought inexplicably.

However, the green shadow mark is not a fragment of mental splitting, but a special existence produced by the spirit.

This is the only relevant knowledge introduced in the manual provided by Felicity.

Lin En continued to read and saw some spiritual practices involving meditation and exercise, which looked very complicated.

"However, there is only knowledge that causes schizophrenia, but no subsequent knowledge of how to use it..."

This may be because the knowledge Felicity obtained was incomplete, but it is more likely because the knowledge on the paper he gave her was incomplete.

After Felicity handed him the paper, she sat down and started working on something at the desk.

Lin En retracted his gaze, turned the paper back to the first page and began to read carefully.

For some reason, he always felt that this knowledge was somewhat familiar...

Not long after, three more Silver Ring apprentices arrived.

Two men and one woman, named Archer, Mick and Libel.

Felicity handed them the same manual, and after they briefly read it, she said in a deep voice:

“This is the knowledge from another world that I accidentally obtained from the Aurora Territory Caravan. It comes from a destroyed world.

"Its effect is very strange. As you can see, it can split off a tiny, active part of the mind without damaging it.

"Of course, all of this is just a translated theory. I asked you to come here so that I can reproduce it in reality."

There was an inexplicable look of anticipation on Felicity's face.

At this time, Mick asked:

"Mr. Felicity, is that destroyed world the world that the Silver Ring Academy once conquered? I mean, is the text of that world in the academy's records?"

"No, that is a world that has been destroyed for a long time. I translated this knowledge myself... I know what you are worried about, but don't worry, at least your life will not be in danger."

Whether it's the large number of corpses in the laboratory or Felicity's weird attitude, he doesn't look like a good person.

But at this time, Felicity's attitude when facing Mick's questioning was not as bad as Lynn had imagined, which made Lynn feel more relaxed.

"I understand, Lady Felicity." Mick nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

"Do you have any other questions?" Felicity asked.

Lin En pondered for a moment and asked calmly:

"Lady Felicity, can we see the original version of this knowledge?"

Felicity was slightly startled, wondering:

"Originally, there were unknown words on it. Even I haven't fully understood it. Why look at it?"

"I'm just a little curious... I come from the remote Green Shadow Forest, and I haven't seen many items from other worlds." Lin En replied.

The three apprentices next to him looked a little surprised, and probably understood that Lin En was an international student.

As for why it wasn't a trainee... According to Felicity's arrangement, trainees did not have the authority to take on this task.

Felicity did not doubt it, but just said:

"Wait until you can stay."

He looked at the apprentices and continued:
“Next, I will test you, and only those who can pass the test can stay.

"As for the content of the assessment, it is very simple. It is a test of mental adaptability and a written test of basic knowledge."

The four apprentices nodded.

"Come with me," Felicity continued.

He led the four wizard apprentices to the basement of the villa. Walking down the narrow stairs, they came to a long corridor with rooms on both sides.

A look of surprise appeared on Lynn's face. The space here looked no less beautiful than the one on the ground.

"Follow me closely, don't walk around, especially don't touch the next room." Felicity said in a deep voice.

Lynn's heart sank, and he and the other three apprentices followed Felicity to the laboratory at the end of the corridor.

This laboratory is slightly smaller than the one on the ground, but without the round tanks containing the corpses, it looks much more empty.

“No, it’s not completely gone…”

In the corner of the laboratory, there was a compartment with its door half-open but not completely closed.

Through the gap, Lynn caught a glimpse of a light green color, which was the corner of the round jar.

Just when Lynn was curious and wanted to change the angle to see what was inside the round jar, Felicity waved and closed the door.

"Remember, don't go anywhere else without my permission. Your range of activities is limited to here."

Felicity warned, before pulling out a bottle of a special light blue liquid.

"Stretch out your hand." Felicity walked towards them, opened the crystal bottle in her hand, inserted the dropper into it, and sucked up the light blue liquid.

Mick was the first to extend his hand. Felicity dropped a drop of light blue liquid on his hand and walked towards Libel, who extended her hand next.

"Use your mental power to touch the liquid in your palm. If it solidifies into sharp crystals, it means you have passed. Otherwise, you have failed. I will have 006 take you away later."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mick said:
"Lady Felicity, I seem to have succeeded."

Felicity turned her head with some surprise in her eyes. According to the records of that knowledge, those who could solidify liquid within 1 minute and 30 seconds could be considered to have good adaptability or talent.

But it only took Mick about ten seconds from the time he came into contact with it to now, which shows that he is obviously very good.

Felicity smiled rarely, "Not bad."

A moment later, a drop of light blue liquid was also dripped onto Lynn and Archer's palms.

Lin En tried to release his mental power, but at this moment, he suddenly found that the White Crow Magic Energy in his body fluctuated slightly.

But when Lin En frowned and felt it carefully, the fluctuation disappeared.

"Speaking of which, the practice of meditation and exercise is indeed somewhat similar to the White Crow Sword Technique."

"I succeeded too, Lady Felicity." Liber suddenly said in surprise.

Lin En came back to his senses and controlled his mind to contact the light blue liquid.

In just a moment, the light blue liquid condensed into a cluster of sharp-edged solids. The speed was so fast that Lin En was a little stunned. Moreover, Lin En found that he seemed to be able to turn it back into liquid.

However, looking at Libel and Mick who were not showing any abnormalities, Lin En suppressed the impulse in his heart and said:

"I succeeded as well, Lady Felicity."

“It took about 30 seconds, which is pretty good.”

Only Archer failed. Two minutes later, the light blue liquid in his hand remained unchanged.

"You can leave now." Felicity announced coldly. 006 walked in from outside the door and took Archer out with a regretful look on his face.

Felicity looked at Libel and said after a moment's silence:
"I thought only two of you would meet the requirements... But never mind. You should stay here too. After all, it's not enough to just be adaptable. You also need to have sufficient knowledge."

Felicity glanced at Lynn, the only one who had not received education at Silver Ring Academy since childhood, and the meaning of her words was very clear.

He seemed to intend to keep only two people.

Originally, Lynn and Mick had a talent of 10 seconds and 30 seconds respectively, while Libel only lasted more than a minute, so it was obvious who would be eliminated.

But as Felicity said, he needs more than just talent.

Liber glanced at Lynn and felt relieved. This mission did not require success. It only required cooperation with Felicity for a week, so it was not difficult, but the contribution points were very high.

Even if Felicity needs to extend the time in the end, she will still pay extra contribution points.

This was a very high-quality and safe mission, and she didn't want to miss it.

At this time, Lin En's thoughts of retreating were long gone. Whether it was the unusual movement of the White Crow Magic Energy Group or the special liquid in his hand, they were all full of temptation.

He really wanted to stay and find an opportunity to see the original knowledge in Felicity's hands!

However, Lin En’s basic knowledge is indeed a weak point.

During the 9 years on the mountain of Horsens School, the original owner was able to learn very limited knowledge because he was unable to overcome the extraordinary barrier.

It has only been a little over a year since Lin En traveled through time. Even though he has consciously made up for the deficiencies in his knowledge, he is definitely still far behind the Silver Ring apprentice who became a wizard apprentice at a very young age and received academy education in terms of the comprehensiveness of basic knowledge.

Soon, Felicity handed out the test papers.

Liber glanced at the test questions and smiled with confidence. She glanced at Lin En and found that the latter also had a relaxed look on his face, and she couldn't help but be startled.

In terms of the breadth of basic knowledge, Lin En is indeed not as good as the Silver Ring apprentice who has received a complete college education.

But with his talent for insight, Lin En's depth in certain specific knowledge is not lacking at all!
For example, the connection between the body and the spirit.

Thanks to his long-term observation of the Black Moon Spirit, Lin En has achieved great accomplishments in this area. At least among wizard apprentices, he can be considered a leader!
The final result was not unexpected. Although Lynn had some tricks up his sleeve, his score was a few points higher than Mick's and only lower than Libel's.

Liber's face was full of regret and unwillingness.

However, after reading the test paper, Felicity pondered for a moment, then looked at Libel and said:
"Forget it, you can stay too. It'll be an extra reference."

Without waiting for Liber to answer, Felicity asked them to look at the paper booklet that had been distributed earlier and began to explain.

"That destroyed world, I will temporarily call it the Crystal World. The reason for this name is that the people in that world have some kind of chip on their chests. This is a feature I inferred from that knowledge..."

Felicity's first words sent a shock through Lynn's heart.

With such similar features, the Crystal World is most likely the White Crow World that produced the White Crow Swordsmanship!

Felicity carefully explained the knowledge on the book to them, and the apprentices only then realized that the knowledge in their hands was a version that Felicity had carefully revised and adjusted.

In order to adapt to the Gunn race, he made many changes, many of which were only valid in theory and there were no successful examples in practice.

However, this was exactly why Felicity asked them to come here.

After Felicity finished explaining the theory, she guided them in the practical operations.

It has to be said that this old wizard has a high level of spiritual attainments. No matter what difficulties the three apprentices encounter, he can easily explain them in just a few words.

In this way, the four people stayed in the laboratory for a whole day, and even their meals were delivered by 006.

It was not until nearly midnight that Felicity finally called a halt, announcing that the work for the day was over and that they should come on time at 7 o'clock tomorrow. She also told the three apprentices that the later it was, the less time they would have to go home, so if they had any matters, they should remember to deal with them tonight.

As for the progress... it was very slow. Even Lin En, without using his talent for peeping, couldn't understand anything.

"No. 006, send them away."

Felicity ordered as he sat alone at the lab table, the cold white light illuminating a tired face.

He sighed, took out a small silver ball from the drawer under the laboratory table, and looked at it carefully.

"Lady Felicity, is that the original source of Knowledge No. 016?" Lin En suddenly asked.

Felicity glanced at Lynn and nodded slightly, as if she remembered something, and asked proactively:
"Do you want to see it?"

These wizard apprentices who cooperated with the experiment signed a confidentiality agreement early on, and Felicity was not reluctant to share this knowledge.

He even gave Archer, who was eliminated, a piece of knowledge in advance.

Hearing Felicity's words, Lin En was overjoyed. He had been looking for a suitable opportunity all day to allow himself to see the original version of Knowledge No. 016 without being noticed.

He had never found an opportunity, but he didn't expect that when he left now, he would get something unexpected!
"If you don't mind." Lynn said quickly with a smile.

Felicity nodded, looked at the remaining two apprentices and said:
"You guys come and take a look. This is the object that carries the knowledge of No. 016, and it is also its accompanying weapon. Perhaps it will be helpful to your practice..."

'arms?'

Lynn had already come in front of Felicity. He took the silver ball the size of a ping-pong ball and was a little confused.

But he didn't care and looked carefully at the silver-white sphere.

There were densely packed small characters engraved on the surface of the sphere, which were now moving slowly like flowing light.

Lin En was suddenly startled, because the font above was different from the font on the White Crow Sword Technique that he had picked up.

Lin En continued to read on, and with the help of his talent for clairvoyance, he understood the meaning of the text above.

"A flash of white lightning suddenly appeared in the void of the sky... This should be the name of this knowledge, Void White Lightning?"

Lin En didn't think much about it. He put one hand into his pocket, took out a magic stone, and decisively spied on it!

Lin En's vision was blurred for only a moment before it recovered. No one noticed his abnormality, and only a little of the magic stone in his pocket was consumed.

At the same time, this knowledge called Void White Electricity, which is complicated and difficult to remember in a short time, has been deeply engraved in Lin En's mind.

This brief glimpse did not help Lin En increase his understanding of the knowledge much, but it did help him remember it.

At this time, Lin En's doubts were also answered.

From the familiar features of the chip above, it can be determined that this is indeed extraordinary knowledge from the White Crow World. The reason why the text is different may be because it is another text of that world.

There is a high probability that there is more than one language in one world.

After saying goodbye to Felicity, Lynn returned home with the joy of a good harvest.

When passing a street corner, he saw a familiar figure getting off a public shuttle.

Lin En was startled. The wizard apprentice in front of him was the biggest suspect of hiring a killer.

Wilfer.
