The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 16 The Wizarding World
The library is located on the 50th floor of the central black tower. Richard, who did not have the ability to levitate, walked up from the first floor. By the time he reached the 50th floor, his legs were so tired that they felt weak.

Standing in front of the library door, Richard tidied his appearance and strode in.

The library was huge, with countless bookshelves up to ten meters high stretching from in front of Richard to the end of his sight.

Suddenly, a palm-sized elf with wings on its back appeared out of thin air in front of Richard.

The elf looks very beautiful. Apart from the wings behind it, it looks like a miniature beauty.

The elf flew around Richard.

"You are a freshman, right? Take out your crystal ball."

Upon hearing this, Richard took out a crystal ball from his bag. The elf tapped the crystal ball lightly, and a faint light flashed through it.

The elf who received Richard's message floated in front of him, with a cute yet serious expression.

"New student check-up, I'm the librarian Finna. If you want to borrow a book, please use the crystal ball and the book number to stick on it, and I will record your borrowing. In addition, fighting, making loud noises, and using any spells except levitation are prohibited in the library. If you violate the rules, I will kick you out. If the situation is serious, I will ban you from entering the library."

"Okay, I see. Then how can I find the books I want?"

The library has a vast amount of books. If there were no index, Richard would never be able to find what he wanted even if he worked himself to death.

The elf pointed to Richard's crystal ball.

"I have put all the books you can borrow in there. If you want more books, then you need to improve your strength. Every time an apprentice advances a level, you will be able to read more books. When you become a wizard, you will be able to borrow all the books in the library."

Richard used his mental power to probe the crystal ball, and the information of the books instantly appeared before his eyes.

"Any more questions?" Finna asked.

Richard came back to his senses, "Oh, no, thank you."

"No problem, I'll leave."

After saying that, Finna used her arm to draw a portal made of glowing powder in the air, and then flew into it.

"A magical spell."

Richard sighed and began to look for the books he wanted in the vast library.

Following the guidance of the information, Richard quickly found what he wanted - "The Scenery of the Wizarding World".

Unlike those spell books that require magic stones to borrow, this book introducing the wizarding world can be borrowed without magic stones, and what Richard needs most now is to understand the wizarding world.

Finding a corner to sit down in the library, Richard began to uncover the veil of the wizarding world.

The size of the wizarding world is far larger than the Earth in the previous life. There are nearly a thousand wizarding academies on the vast continent, and the dean of each wizarding academy is at least a fourth-level wizard.

The wild wind belt in the far east, the vast desert in the southwest, the magnetic sky island in the center of the continent, the towering ice wall at the edge of the world... As Richard flipped through the pages of the book, a splendid and magnificent wizarding world slowly opened up before him.

But as Richard looked at it, he found that on the map of the wizard continent, there were patches of uninhabited areas of different sizes. According to the markings on the map, there were not only no wizard academies in these places, but even ordinary people did not exist.

"What's going on?" Richard began to look for answers in books.

Finally, in the section introducing the history of the wizarding world, Reason found the answer.

The history of the wizarding world can be divided into three stages: the initial period of ignorance, then the enlightenment stage, and finally the current pioneering stage.

In the Age of Ignorance, wizards fought alone and explored their territory in the wilderness of knowledge. In this period, wizards had not yet become the masters of the wizarding world. Both the giant beasts in the ocean and the dragons flying in the sky were far stronger than wizards.

The second stage is the enlightenment period. Wizards in this stage began to unite, and wizards with similar research directions contacted each other, eventually forming associations and schools. Wizard families also began to rise in this period. Wizards married each other and used blood and contracts to strengthen their relationship.

It was also during this period that wizards replaced dragons as the masters of the land in the wizarding world and reached an agreement with the behemoths in the ocean.

At the end of the Enlightenment Period, the wizarding world had been explored by wizards. Except for the seabed full of magical undercurrents and the elemental poles full of elemental storms, the entire wizarding world had been divided up by wizards.

The world is limited, but the number of wizards is constantly increasing. Faced with this almost unsolvable problem, the Wizard War begins.

Wizards from various schools began to use all their life's knowledge to crush the hostile wizards into scum. The elemental torrents of the Shaper School annihilated and decomposed the wizard towers. The undead of the Undead School were as numerous as sea sand. The Soul School summoned one sea of ​​soul behemoth after another. The golem legions of the Alchemy School continuously walked out of the workshop. The vicious curse of the Mystic School produced countless invisible cursed objects that killed people.

This war turned one-third of the land of the Wizarding Continent into wasteland, and also created an archipelago around the continent.

Finally, the leaders of the five major schools reached an agreement to end the war and formed the Parliament of Truth to manage the entire wizarding world. These five leaders were later called the Wizards of Truth. Thus, the wizarding world entered the third stage, the pioneering stage.

The war resulted in the loss of countless knowledge, but also the birth of many unprecedented new technologies.

The maturity of astral navigation technology has enabled wizards to travel across the world in floating cities, and plane wars require a steady stream of wizards to fill the gap. The previous family model produced wizards too slowly, often taking hundreds of years to produce dozens of wizards, which was far from meeting the needs of plane wars.

Thus the Wizarding Academy came into being.

Richard closed the book. He now understood the purpose of the academy's cruel rules.

"So all wizard academies are essentially military academies, and all wizards in these academies are born for plane wars."

Planar wars, astral travel, these things stimulate Richard's heart.

In his previous life, Richard was obsessed with the stars and fantasized about humans living in harmony and exploring the endless starry sky.

As a result, things that I didn't see in my previous life, I saw them after traveling through time.

"You have to be a wizard."

Richard's eyes were determined. Before this, he just lived for the sake of living.

But now, he has a dream!
It was already dark when we left the library.

In front of the dormitory door, he met Ellie. Ellie's hair and burns had all recovered, and she had changed into a slim-fitting women's outfit.

There is a hospital inside the academy. From minor illnesses such as colds and fevers to major limb mutilations, the academy hospital can cure all diseases. Even if you die, they will ask the wizards of the School of Necromancer to transform you into a necromancer - as long as you have enough magic stones.

"Hey, Richard. What have you been up to? Want some freshly baked bread?"

Ellie greeted Richard with a bag of baguettes that were still hot and fragrant from the oven, and handed one to Richard.

Richard took the bread, and the rich aroma of bread instantly awakened his stomach.

Gulu!
There seem to be quite a few restaurants and bakeries in the living area.
"I just went to the library. You'd better go too. There's a very interesting book called 'The Scenery of the Wizarding World'." Richard said vaguely while eating bread.

"Okay, I'll go check it out tomorrow."

Ellie looked at Richard and her cheeks turned red for no apparent reason.

As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Richard is now wearing new clothes, and his originally malnourished face has almost recovered in recent days.

Looking at Richard now, his long black hair, handsome face and slightly thin body add a touch of literary air to him.

This all lands squarely in Allie’s strike zone.

What's more, Richard acted as a hero and saved the beauty on the airship.

Thinking of the figure she saw through the crack in the door, Ellie's cheeks couldn't help but feel hot.

"Well, remember to read the history section." Richard swallowed the bread in his mouth and patted Ellie with a firm look.

Ellie shuddered.
"Okay! I'll definitely go and see it."

Back in the room, Richard couldn't wait to take out the book on introductory meditation methods.

An essential requirement for becoming a wizard is mental strength, and meditation is the most common and widespread means of improving mental strength.
