The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 63: The Great Wizard of the Black Tower

After the invisible shackles were broken, Richard's body underwent amazing changes.

A tingling sensation spread throughout his body, as if every cell in his body was trembling. At the same time, the magic power in his body began to be consumed, and the lost magic power was absorbed by the cells and turned into nutrients to support evolution.

The first thing that began to change was the skin. A layer of keratin formed on the outer layer of his skin at a speed visible to the naked eye. Under the protection of this layer of keratin, Richard could clearly feel that the speed at which his body temperature was losing began to decrease.

But the changes were not limited to the epidermis, cells all over Richard's body began to mutate during this evolution. The cells produced more heat, and the muscle fat began to change structure to become more adapted to the cold environment.

Changes that would have taken tens of thousands of years were completed in just a few minutes, accelerated by the potion.

When everything was over, Richard suddenly vomited a pool of black blood.

These are waste products from cell turnover.

"I guess I'm just getting started."

Richard wiped his mouth. The freezing in the freezing chamber had not yet finished, but he could no longer feel the cold.

As the time was up, Richard walked out of the cabin, found his magic pocket and took out a test crystal ball.

[Spirit 33.2, Physical 31.9, Magic 332, Rating: Intermediate Apprentice. ]

"My physique has improved by almost two points. This year's training is not a waste."

The Adaptive Body has the effect of tapping into the body's potential. Although this effect is a side effect, as of now, this side effect is of the greatest help to Richard.

After cleaning the freezing chamber, Richard took out another tube of adaptation potion and injected it into his body.

The evolution just now had consumed all the adaptation potion injected earlier, and he now had to replenish it.

Sitting on the electric chair, Richard took a deep breath and turned on the switch.

This time, Richard's body changed again. When the electric current passed through his body, it no longer brought pain, but a tingling sensation.

Richard's body was beginning to adjust to the shocks.

As mentioned before, the core of life is a rusty machine, the adaptation potion is its lubricant, and external stimulation is its energy source. Now that the machine is moving, the rust between the parts will naturally begin to wear away, and this machine will only turn faster and faster.

After one cycle ended, Richard climbed out of the recovery fluid and prepared to find Joe Lord to report his progress.

Qiao Luode was very concerned about his progress. Ever since he last asked Qiao Luode about the ineffectiveness of the adaptive body, he asked him every few days and gave him encouragement and support.

As someone who had been through it, Qiao Luode naturally knew the pain of the early stage of the adaptive body. He suffered torture day by day, but the effect was almost invisible.

Barry is only half of 90.

It's easy to give up on such a hopeless life.

When they arrived at the laboratory, Joe Lord pointed at the corpse of an alien creature in front of the dissection table and taught Chucks.

"This gland is its digestive gland. Digestive fluid enters its digestive cavity from this duct and then dissolves the food into nutritious soup..."

When Joe Lord saw Richard coming in, he stopped explaining.

"Richard, you've come just in time. I just happened to have something to tell you."

"Teacher, you say." Richard found a stool and sat next to Chucks.

"I have good news for you. The dean has returned early. You will be able to enter the dean's secret realm this afternoon."

"Really?" Richard was surprised, then overjoyed, "Isn't the dean going to come back in a year?"

Qiao Luode put the scalpel in his hand aside, summoned a ball of water and washed his hands.

"Who knows? Anyway, that's what Alex said. I saw you smiling when you came in. Do you have something good to tell me?" Joe Lord looked at Richard with a smile.

Richard smiled shyly, "I just came to tell the teacher that my adaptive body has taken effect."

As he spoke, Richard stretched out his arm, and Joe Lord noticed the change in Richard at a glance.

"Okay, okay, it's good that there's an effect." Joe Lord sighed, "I haven't seen any effect in a year, I was afraid that you would give up..." Before he finished speaking, Joe Lord suddenly glared at Chax who was retreating.

"Chucks, I can't see you if you hide behind me? If you have Richard's perseverance, you won't be unable to even explore a secret realm!"

Chucks smiled bitterly. The Adaptive Body was something that no human could train. He had trained for three months, which was considered an amazing perseverance.

But there are two monster-like characters around him.

Senior sister Anna persisted for half a year, and this junior brother of mine was even more incredible. He persisted for a whole year without giving up.

What a monster.

……

In the afternoon, Richard arrived at the laboratory early and went to the upper level of the central black tower with Joe Lord.

The central black tower is very tall. The bottom fifty floors are teaching areas, the fifty-one to three hundred floors are wizard areas, and the area above is the residence of the dean, the great wizard of the Black Tower. Even wizards cannot enter casually, with the exception of Vice-Dean Alex.

Arriving at the 300th floor, all the apprentices who had been given the opportunity to explore were brought here by their mentors. Two of these apprentices originally had no mentors, but after the exam, a wizard immediately accepted them as his disciples.

"Everyone is here." Alex looked at the number of people and then at the pocket watch in his hand.

"Come up with me."

The way to enter the 301st floor was somewhat beyond Richard's expectations. These wizards actually had to go up the stairs.

"Is there a no-fly barrier in the area above?"

Richard's question was soon answered. As they entered the 301st floor, the surrounding environment changed instantly.

In an instant, Richard realized that the concentration of magic power in his surroundings rose by more than one level. He even suspected that he was wrong.

But he looked at the other apprentices and found that they were equally surprised.

"The area above the 300th floor of the Central Black Tower has been fused with secret realm fragments by the dean, so both the size of the space and the concentration of magic power are far beyond normal." Alex introduced without turning his head.

Several apprentices withdrew their surprised looks and continued to follow their mentor with their heads down.

They came to a door, and Alex took out a strange key from his sleeve and opened the door. The moment the door opened, Richard and several other apprentices almost fainted on the ground instantly.

An indescribable fear seeped out from behind the door, and Richard felt every cell in his body tremble at the mere touch, and even his life core began to operate on its own without the potion.

Richard's vision was blurry, his body frantically searching for a way to survive.

"Dean, these little guys can't stand your life radiation." Alex said helplessly.

"Haha, I think there are some pretty good little ones this time. Look at the little one that Qiao Luode brought."

As he was speaking, a figure came up to Richard.

This is a middle-aged man. He looks very handsome, with unkempt hair and beard, but he has the demeanor of a madman.

"Qiaoluode, your adaptability is pretty good."

The man held Richard's head with one hand, and a steady stream of magic power seeped into Richard's body to help his evolution.

In just a few minutes, Richard's body stabilized.

As his vision became clear, Richard saw a middle-aged man he had never seen before standing in front of him, looking at him with interest.

"You are……"

The middle-aged man smiled.

"Little one, I am your dean, the great wizard of the Black Tower."
