Wizard, I have a game board.

Chapter 294 Countdown

Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The Second World, in a vast, emerald-green palace.

Blood had just invited Lor in when he noticed something was amiss.

It sensed a naturally formed barrier around Lor, which seemed to contain the nascent forms of the laws of time and space.

In addition, it could sense that this barrier seemed to be naturally formed, which was extremely strange.

Furthermore, this guy was emanating a sixth-tier aura, clearly indicating that he had advanced to the sixth tier.

"Come, sit down, have some fruit first." Blood's eyelids twitched slightly, but he didn't ask any more questions and simply waved his paw to invite Lor to sit down.

"Yes, thank you, Manager." Lor sat down and skillfully picked up the strange fruits to eat.

A moment later, at Lor's request, Xue finished the last fruit and then asked, "Have you fulfilled all the conditions of the agreement this time?"

Compared to the past, Lor's changes this time are undoubtedly enormous.

It had a premonition that the little guy had probably already completed all the contents of the agreement.

“Yes, Administrator.” Lor nodded with a smile. “This time I comprehended two rudimentary forms of the laws of time, and also gathered twenty basic time runes.”

"Tsk, just as I expected."

Xue smacked his lips. "Since you have completed all the contents of the agreement, according to the agreement, I will subsidize you with 900,000 Law Values ​​to purchase the Time River Scroll, and also extend the trial opening time by 1,900 years."

"As for the two extra time-based runes, since they are not covered by the agreement, I 'cannot' give you any extra compensation, is that alright?"

It emphasized the words "cannot" heavily, implying that it didn't mean it didn't want to compensate, but rather that there were certain limitations preventing it from giving more.

This is also its true thought.

If it were in charge, whether the trial grounds would open or not would be entirely up to Lor, and canceling them wouldn't be a big deal.

Furthermore, if all the remaining 100,000 Law Values ​​from the Time River Scroll are replenished, there shouldn't be any problem in giving them directly to this little guy.

Compared to cultivating good relations with the supreme candidate, these are nothing but trifles.

Unfortunately, it has no say in the matter.

"Thank you, Manager." Lor stood up and bowed deeply to Blood.

Since entering the Second World, blood has been of great help to him.

If he hadn't met this person, he might have already run away with the wizarding world.

The consequence of fleeing with the Wizarding World was the severing of the Seventh Ring Road.

Therefore, he was naturally grateful to this person and would do his best to repay them if there were any opportunities in the future.

"Haha, don't be so polite." Blood chuckled, waving his front paws, his gaze towards Lor filled with satisfaction. "Do you have any questions for me this time?"

"I"

Lor couldn't help but recall his speculation from two years ago about that macroscopic insight into the river of time, but the related questions only flashed through his mind for a moment before he forcibly suppressed them, instead asking, "Our Wizarding Alliance has recently come up with a new plan."

He explained his plan and purpose for making a name for himself in the arena, and then asked, "Do you think there are any flaws in this plan?"

That river of time holds his greatest secret, and now is not the time to reveal it.

Just like when he hadn't reached the Fourth Ring, he hadn't revealed the future to any wizards, including Arsène Lupin.

When one's own power is insufficient to protect oneself, a secret can only ever remain a secret.

“That’s a good idea.”

Blood nodded and said approvingly, "With this foundation, you can indeed achieve your goal with less effort. I look forward to the day you step into the arena again."

"However, there is one thing you need to be aware of. After the trial passage is officially opened, as the passage extends inward, the beings outside the plane cluster can vaguely see inside from outside the trial field."

"Given the location of your plane, if you cannot cover up all the planes your race has been involved in within seven breaths, then apart from the first batch of sixth-order beings to enter the plane cluster, other beings may not come in to die."

The trial passage opens from the outside in. Once you arrive at the two hundred planes where the Wizard Alliance is located, the outside world will see the wizards and mortals inside.

If Lor's plan goes smoothly, they will definitely be able to recognize this race at a glance.

Those who entered the trial grounds early were naturally guaranteed to escape, but the probability of those who hadn't entered yet going in to their deaths was also pitifully low.

Are you kidding me? There are three Tier 6 Nine-Stars in the trial grounds, one of whom is a Tier 6 Nine-Star from the Space-Time Faction. Are they going in to die?
"Thank you for your answer, I have no further questions." Lor bowed again.

Previously, the Wizard Alliance estimated that the trial passage would open to the Wizard Alliance's territory in about ten breaths. Now that Blood has given an accurate number, he is more confident.

Within seven breaths, he had to determine the route of the first trial passage, arrange for Sanchez and Vincentia to be in place in advance, and finally go find the child of the leader of the Lingkong civilization.

"Alright, go ahead." Blood waved his hand, teleporting Lor out of this space.

The next instant, a soft murmur sounded from beside it: "Two thousand six hundred years, fifty truths of time, four rudimentary forms of the laws of time, and incidentally, a breakthrough to the sixth ring."

"That's really outrageous."

Blood nodded, echoing with deep emotion, "When I first drafted this agreement, I thought it would be good if it could achieve 20% of its goals."

"Later, I learned that he had already grasped more than ten kinds of the true meaning of time within the Fifth Ring Road, which raised my expectations to fifty percent."

"In the end, it's only been 2,600 years, and he's already accomplished it all."

At this point, it suddenly paused, then shook its head and said, "No, that's not right!"

"Two thousand six hundred years is probably not the time when he actually completed the agreement; it may have been earlier."

"He only had the opportunity to tell us because we've now reached the limit of the last extended time."

After learning that Lor had only comprehended five truths of time in his first century, it originally thought that this little guy's talent for time was only at a mid-level among all the geniuses who had comprehended the truths of time on their own.

The greatest gains are made from comprehending the true meaning of the river of time on the first attempt; if this is not achieved, the efficiency of gaining insights will become increasingly slower in the future.

But it never expected that the little guy's efficiency in comprehending the true meaning of time would be completely opposite to that of other geniuses who comprehended the true meaning of time on their own.

Instead of slowing down, it's getting faster and faster.

During the second assessment, only 250 years had passed, and he actually comprehended sixteen truths about time.

The most talented genius in the past era, at the same time he came into contact with the scroll of the River of Time, only managed to comprehend ten truths about time.

Note that the ten types mentioned here already include the five types from the first assessment.

To have been immersed in the scroll of the River of Time for 350 years and to comprehend the true meaning of the twelve laws of time is the level of the most genius in the past.

Lor, however, exceeded it by nearly double, comprehending twenty-one different kinds, which completely baffled him.

We know that the chosen one of the Transcendent Treasures is not simple, but is it a bit too much to say that he is not simple to this extent?

However, this is only the beginning.

During the third assessment, this little guy not only revealed eleven true essences of the laws of time, but also produced two prototypes of the laws of time.

Those were the prototypes of two laws of time!

The most talented one in the past first comprehended the true meaning of time for five hundred years, gaining a total of sixteen understandings of time's essence. He then devoted himself to comprehending for another three hundred years before finally grasping the rudimentary form of the first law of time.

As for the rudimentary form of the second time law, it took that person a full thousand years to comprehend it.

In contrast, over a total of 1,150 years, Lor not only comprehended 32 truths of time, but also 'incidentally' grasped the rudiments of two laws of time.

The difference is simply enormous.

The fourth time was alright, as it was within its expectations, because it had become numb to it.

In the Wizarding Dimension, on the top floor of the Lor Wizarding Tower, in the study.

"The final assessment is over, and the countdown to the opening of the training grounds has officially begun." Lor turned to look out the window.

His gaze seemed to pierce through layers of space, landing on the sixth, seventh, and even eighth-order beings who lingered outside the wizard plane cluster, their faces filled with greed.

Nineteen hundred years from now, the Wizarding Alliance will officially meet those guys.

"Heh, I hope you can maintain this greed." Lor's lips curled slightly as he withdrew his gaze and began to attempt to create two other spatial spells that he had chosen in advance.

The core basic runes of these two spatial sorceries are the Spatial Anchor Basic Rune and the Spatial Lock Basic Rune.

Undoubtedly, they all enhance spatial positioning characteristics from various directions.

He went to great lengths to ensure that no accidents occurred during the dimensional jump.

November 25, 7112 in the Wizarding Calendar.

Milton Continent, Institute of Pharmacy, Dean's Laboratory.

Wearing a green three-ring wizard's robe, Uri, who had grown into a middle-aged man with a more composed demeanor, picked up an apprentice-level white mouse and skillfully poured the light black potion in his hand into its mouth.

"Squeak-"

The white mouse's pupils widened, and it looked extremely uncomfortable, but its mental strength began to increase silently.

105%
110%
When the white mouse's mental strength reached 114%, both Uli and Rosa, who was watching from a distance, couldn't help but hold their breath.

If its mental strength increases by just one percent, it will meet the condition for opening another magic slot, which means that Uli will have the opportunity to have Speaker Lor personally wear the honorary councilor badge.

Indeed, when Uli expanded the apprentice's mental strength to 110% of the potion's limit, Rosa had already informed Speaker Lor of Uli's request.

The final result pleased both of them. Speaker Lor agreed to the request, but on the condition that Uri expand the limit to 115%.

Now, we have reached the most critical moment.

"squeak--"

Under the watchful eyes of the two, a full ten minutes passed. Just as the mouse's mental strength was approaching the critical point, it only managed to let out a mournful cry before suddenly falling silent.

Uli: "."

Rosa: "."

They had considered that the experiment might fail, but they certainly hadn't expected it to fail in such a ridiculous way.

"Uri, try using a stronger mouse next time. Remember to give it a temporary life-enhancing potion when its mental strength reaches 110%." Rosa quickly offered a solution.

"Yes, mentor." Uli nodded, turned around and walked back to the potion experiment table, spending two days replicating the same apprentice's mental strength limit-breaking potion.

He then walked to the corner again and looked around.

Finally, they identified the strongest apprentice-level mouse, dragged it out, and administered the potion.

Soon, the mouse's mental strength broke through to 110% again.
Without hesitation, Uli immediately took out a bottle of temporary life-enhancing potion from his spatial ring and fed it to him.

Under the close watch of the two, the mouse's mental strength limit broke through all the way and soon reached 115%.

However, this is not the end; its mental strength limit is still increasing.

116%
117%
118%.

When the mouse's mental strength limit stopped at 118%, the two finally relaxed.

“Congratulations, Uri,” Rosa said with a smile. “You will also receive the same honor as me.”

She is very proud of her students' achievements.

She wasn't wrong about him; Uli was indeed the most suitable researcher for this path.

“It’s all thanks to the excellent teaching of our mentors,” Uli grinned.

“If you don’t have the talent and patience, my teaching will be meaningless.” Rosa shook her head, not dwelling on the topic any longer, and instead took out the mainland communicator and started operating it.

After Speaker Lor gave her the terms, he also granted her the authority to send emergency communications to him.

Now is the perfect time to use this permission.

Uli knew what his mentor was doing, so he quickly led the white mouse to his mentor's side, staring directly at the mainland communicator, his forehead sweating with nervousness.

In a little while, he will be able to see the most mysterious and powerful Speaker of the Wizarding Alliance.

The thought of this made it impossible for him to remain calm.

As Rosa waited for the call to connect, she caught a glimpse of her student out of the corner of her eye, and a nostalgic smile appeared on her lips.

Looking back, wasn't she the same way?

Three breaths later, the communication was established, and a light screen appeared in front of the two of them.

"Greetings, Speaker Lor."

"Greetings, Speaker Lor."

The two bowed at the same time, but Rosa was much more composed, while Uli was so nervous that he didn't dare to look at the light screen. Even with the temporary life-enhancing potion, the white mouse in his hand was almost suffocating from his grip.

Fortunately, he still had a sliver of reason left and ultimately did not crush the white mouse to death.

"No need for formalities." In the light screen, Lor smiled gently and nodded slightly, looking at the white mouse in Uli's hand and said, "Rosa, did you send me this message today because your student has expanded the apprentice's mental power beyond the potion's limit to 115%?"

“Yes, Speaker Lor.” Rosa nodded repeatedly. “In fact, in this experiment, he not only raised the limit to 115%, but to 118%.”

"Haha, good, very good." Lor smiled brightly. "Uli, you go ahead and make preparations. I'll inform Amy to arrange the honorary councilor awarding ceremony for you in a bit."

The potion that Uri developed has a high probability of perfecting his spatial barrier magic.

If it is then integrated into the spacetime domain, there is a certain possibility that it will have the potential to break through to the seventh level, which makes it hard for him not to be happy.

“Yes, thank you very much, Speaker Lor,” Uli stammered.

On May 27, 7112 of the Wizarding Calendar, Uri, the Grand Pharmacist of the Academy of Pharmacy, was officially awarded the Honorary Councilor Badge.

Its achievements have generated great anticipation among countless wizards in the Wizarding Alliance.

Once the side effects of the mental potion are eliminated, all wizards will receive a new apprentice wizarding slot.

This is the first time since the establishment of the wizarding system that the number of wizarding positions has increased, and its significance is self-evident.
