Wizard: Starts with Advanced Meditation

During a break from his bath, Hughes thought of the Chiss family. He probably didn't know that the Chiss family was continuing to plan and gather materials to deal with him later.

However, their family's Tyrell will be caught up in a bloody storm.

……

Corrilla Upper Town

Most of the residents here are families or households with formal wizards, and the abundant resources allow the wizards living here to live very comfortably.

Merchant guilds of all sizes have opened shops here, and the Runemaster Guild, Potion Master Guild, and Wizard Artifact Master Guild have even set up branches here. Wizards living here still have access to resources to continue their advancement.

It is not only the most longed-for living environment for countless wizards who have left the academy, but also a paradise that apprentice families in the central city dream of moving into.

Corera itself ranks among the top wizarding towns in the western part of the continent. The reason for Corera's prosperity is that it has the Morsold family living in the center of the upper city.

The Morsold family was originally a three-ring family with the Golden Crown. After their patriarch took over Corella, he soon rose to become a second-level wizard, elevating the family to a four-ring family.

This second-level wizard is Ross Morsold, the lord of Corella. He lives alone in the Wizard Tower on the floating island above the city, from which one can overlook the entire Wizard Tower.

Today, a wizard has come to this wizard's tower.

"Lord Ross, here is the potion for this time."

An elderly human-half-elf dressed in a simple robe handed the storage bag in his hand to the alchemical puppet beside him.

This is none other than Valic Chiss, the patriarch of the Chiss family, the grandfather of Mor and Tyr, and a highly regarded intermediate potion master.

The Chess family is considered the top family in the central district. Some formal wizarding families do not move to the upper district, after all, their family's early foundation and businesses are here.

The sudden appearance of the Chiss family, which has two formal wizards, speaks volumes about their strength, not to mention the presence of a mid-level potion master. However, the Chiss family is very low-key, only establishing their family on a plot of land in the central district and not expanding outwards.

In the plane of Oren, intermediate potion masters are considered top-tier. Low-level potions are those most useful to apprentice-level to level two wizards, while intermediate-level potions are useful to wizards at level two and above.

However, due to limitations such as a lack of resources and recipes, intermediate potion makers in the Oren plane often cannot concoct many intermediate potions, making them extremely rare and sought after.

Now, the patriarch of the Chiss family has brought several bottles of precious intermediate-level potions as a gift to Ross Morsold.

"Warlock Varic is indeed a mid-level potion master; he even has such rare materials in the Oren plane," Ross said calmly.

"Not at all, it's just a little bit of savings accumulated by our ancestors due to the kindness of the Elven family."

Knowing that the other party was testing him, Warrick used his ancestors as a cover.

"Tell me, what do you want to change this time?" Ross asked.

Clearly, this wasn't the first time such a transaction had occurred.

"I have long heard that you possess intermediate meditation techniques, but I do not know them."

"Walrick asked cautiously."

"Varic, you're joking. If I had intermediate meditation techniques, my good-for-nothing son wouldn't still be stuck as a second-class apprentice, and wouldn't have started this ridiculous Shadow Weaving Society."

Ross sneered, and at the same time, he released his second-level wizard's mental power without reservation. The terrifying pressure could be felt even by the residents of Corera.

Sensing the threat, Varik forced back the pressure of his mental energy and said, "Lord Ross, I wonder if you still have the Blood Pact Ticks from last time? My grandson, Mor, also has a curse affinity..."

Having received a satisfactory answer, Ross withdrew his oppressive aura and said calmly:

"The clan's cursed wizards experimented on breeding and improving a few of them, originally intending to use them to enslave a few official wizards, but it didn't succeed, and most of them were used by my eldest son, Rice..."

Changing the subject, Ross said, "If you want it, the training method is yours, and then there's also..."

Ross still had to abide by the principle of equivalent exchange, especially since the other party was willing to provide him with a valuable intermediate-level potion...

After the transaction was completed, Warrick immediately went to the Chiss family.

"Damn it, so much time has passed, that Craig kid should have discovered the relic by now. Now we have no choice but to let Mor use the Blood Pact Tick to find out any signs of the relic..."

Upon returning to their family, a handsome half-elf greeted them; he was Fenrir Chisse, the father of Mor and Tyrell, the only two official wizards in the Chisse family.

"How's the situation?" Warrick asked calmly.

This son was forcibly promoted to a full wizard by Varic using a potion, and it is estimated that he will not be able to advance to a second-level wizard afterward. Varic does not value him much; he values ​​his grandson Tyr Kiss, who has the blessing of the Tree of Life, more.

"The eldest son of the Craig family has become an apprentice of Serafina Canningt. He has a decent talent for potions, and his strength is improving at a rate similar to that of a third-class aptitude. He has been studying alone at the academy, so they shouldn't suspect Mor."

Finrick answered in detail.

After hearing the information sent by Mor, Varik packed the Blood Pact Tick and some potions into a package and sent it to Everfrost Spire, and also sent some potions to Nature Speakers.

After doing all this, Warrick angrily smashed the alchemy equipment on the table.

"Hmph! If it weren't for the fear that that miser Ross would take a share, I would have easily snatched the sacred artifact from a small Craig family long ago."

……

Everfrost Tip

At this moment, Mor was packing his things, preparing to follow Rice to hunt a Shattered Ice Storm Spirit.

The Shattered Storm Spirit is a humanoid creature composed of ice storms, possessing both ice and wind elemental spellcasting abilities and ice and wind elemental resistance.

However, its size is relatively small among elemental creatures, making it very suitable for apprentices at Everfrost Spire to hone their combat skills in the mid-game.

With this period of study and training, the members of the Shadow Weaver Society have undergone a significant transformation. Rice has been leading everyone out on missions one after another, and they have all completed them successfully, resulting in a substantial improvement in everyone's strength.

The most outstanding example is Reno. Since successfully transplanting the arm of the Void Arm Spirit, not only has the strength of his right arm increased, but he can also use it to activate a short period of ethereal ability, which is an effect that is absolutely not available in level zero sorcery.

Reno even gained the favor of the wizard Bryce, after all, Bryce needed data for reference later, and it is said that only two people were successful in that biological modification experiment, and they were the only two who survived.

The biggest change is in Rice. Since being ambushed by two traitors, Rice has become much more composed and ruthless. Subsequently, he has placed blood pacts on disloyal members one after another.

Unlike last time, he wouldn't give anyone a chance. He would directly pick an unlucky person to intimidate them, and those who were cursed would be forced to sell their lives for him for the rest of their lives.

Just as Mo'er was about to go to the assembly, a package was delivered to the table by Xue Ling.

"Um?"

When Mor opened it, he realized it was a Blood Pact Tick. His original purpose in approaching Rice was to purchase some knowledge and resources related to curses from him.
