Wizard: Starts with Advanced Meditation

After Rice and his group returned to the academy, they resumed their peaceful lives there. However, after this mission, they also had the idea of ​​improving their strength.

This baptism also made them realize that they could not rely too much on Rice. After acquiring a few magic stones, they also worked hard to improve themselves, buying paid courses and witchcraft as needed.

Fortunately, everyone understood that the disastrous situation of this mission was mainly due to the betrayal of Locke and Diriel, as well as Logan's behind-the-scenes manipulation, so none of them left the Shadowweaver Society.

Meanwhile, someone was walking towards Rice's room...

Renault did not die. Perhaps the ice element froze the wound in time, preventing him from bleeding to death. However, the severed limb had been completely destroyed by the ice element and could not be reattached.

Only regeneration potions or other regenerative magic can heal Reno; blood-restoring potions can only heal his wounds.

However, the regeneration potion is a mid-level potion, which even Rhys is powerless to help, or rather, has no obligation to sacrifice so many resources to help Reno.

Rice still promised to do his best to help Renault, as he owed him a favor, since Renault had shot the crucial arrow and made a great contribution.

Renault's gaze was resolute. His upper right side was tightly wrapped in bandages, but he still walked straight toward Rice's room.

The apprentices on the road looked at him with strange eyes. Having lost his right hand, if he couldn't reattach it, it would be difficult to survive in this cruel wizarding world.

"Knock knock".

Rice was looking at his runebook notes when there was a knock on the door. Rice put away his notes, got up and opened the door. He saw that it was Renault and invited him into the house.

Renault cut to the chase: "Boss Rice, I heard that Wizard Bryce is researching the arms of Void Arm Spirits and is preparing to recruit test subjects. I'm afraid I won't be able to compete with the second or third-class apprentices, so I'm thinking..."

Rice frowned and said, "Have you thought this through? Actually, you could install a mechanical arm on it. Although the survival rate of Bryce's wizarding experiments is indeed higher than that of other wizards, it's still..."

"I've thought it through. This is an opportunity, and it might be the only one..." Renault said, shaking the last bit of his shoulder.

"You... alright, I'll help you get a spot," Rice said helplessly after glancing at him.

Inside the laboratory used for research on biological modification, Reno was sitting in a corner, surrounded by some apprentices, mostly second- or third-class wizard apprentices.

Renault seemed out of place, while the laboratory's owner, the frost elf Bryce, was studying a silver-gray arm with many pale purple markings.

The arm is partially visible, appearing semi-transparent. Upon closer inspection, one can even see the experimental table below through the arm.

Void Arm Spirits are a type of creature from the Void race. They are humanoid energy beings who are born with the ability to make their bodies ethereal.

In their ethereal state, they are immune to physical attacks and even witchcraft deals very little damage to them. Their nemesis is spatial witchcraft.

The Void race's ability to become ethereal is achieved through specific ethereal organs, and among them, the Void race that uses their arms to achieve this ability is the Void Arm Spirit.

Bryce's icy blue pupils flickered slightly, and his pale fingers moved up and down, wielding a small knife made of spatial energy to cut through the blood vessels and magical patterns on the ethereal organ.

After dealing with the Void Arm Spirit's arm, Bryce glanced casually at the group of "experiments," his pale eyebrows twitching slightly.

"You, the one with the red hair, you go first." Bryce casually picked an apprentice, since all five apprentices would be doing an experiment today anyway.

Dis was startled. Suppressing his excitement, he nervously walked up to the lab table and lay down on it.

Dis, a third-class wizard apprentice, is already 29 years old. His mental strength can no longer increase much through meditation alone, and it will never reach the level required to challenge for a formal wizardship.

He didn't have a powerful family, nor did he have the talent or resources to learn alchemy like potions. He had to rely on his own hard work to acquire all resources, and he even advanced to the third-class wizard apprenticeship very late.

He wanted to stay in the resource-rich Everfrost Spire to continue exploring the path of a wizard, but the Everfrost Spire was not a place to stay.

Every third-class wizard apprentice who remains in Everfrost Spire is forcibly assigned a mission every six months. These missions are extremely dangerous, with the highest mortality rate, and are designed to select the most capable apprentices.

Dis has survived one forced mission after another, constantly teetering between life and death, while his companions either sacrifice themselves or die because of his betrayal.

He was unwilling to accept it. He had finally become a third-class wizard apprentice, but he still couldn't control his own destiny. And now, his mandatory mission was coming again.

Recently, the Frostskin Dwarves have been attacking more and more frequently, so it's no surprise that the mandatory quest is to hunt down some bloodthirsty Frostskin Dwarves.

Thinking of those ferocious frost-skinned dwarves, Dis couldn't help but shudder. These frost-skinned dwarves not only had thick skin and extremely high resistance, but they were also very good at fighting.

Most apprentices would face a difficult battle against them, and their treatment of the defeated and prisoners was extremely brutal. He didn't want to have his head smashed and his brains sucked out by those dwarves.

To enhance his strength and ensure the successful completion of the next mandatory mission, Dis is prepared to take a gamble.

If this transplant is successful, based on Bryce's modifications, he will be able to gain some ability to become ethereal, increasing his chances of survival. He might even be able to rank among the third-class wizard apprentices at the academy.

Bryce waved his hand, and the chains on the lab table automatically bound Dis's limbs.

The bio-modification began. Bryce injected Dis's arm with a pain-immune potion; this level of treatment was not suitable for anesthesia.

Bryce raised an ordinary scalpel and swiftly severed Dis's right arm... Finally, the Void Arm Spirit's arm was reattached to Dis's body, stitching up the wound.

After Dis reattached the Void Arm Spirit's arm, the stitches in the wound twitched. Dis could feel sensation in his right hand, and a strong energy was flowing into his right arm, which was then surging into his body.

At the same time, from the outside, Dis's body appears to switch back and forth between semi-transparent and solid.

"Don't resist this energy," Bryce said gently, noticing that Dis was resisting with his mental and magical power. He then drew some kind of rune on Dis's chest.

Upon hearing this, Dis relaxed slightly, releasing his mental and magical power to allow the energy to enter his body.

At the same time, he prayed that the energy would soon subside and that he could tame it.

Everything seemed to be going very smoothly...
