Wizard: I Have a World of the Dead

Lin Qi's expression was strange.

Is Shadowstone Ore the same as Magic Stone? Is Magic Stone the same as Shadowstone Ore?

If that's the case...

Wouldn't I be incredibly happy?

The Wizarding World General Knowledge Guide provides a detailed explanation of the value of this magic stone in the Wizarding World.

It is the hard currency of the wizarding world. It can be used to purchase anything that can be traded and circulated in the market throughout the wizarding world, and its value is enormous.

This item is extremely difficult to obtain.

It is an energy product of natural elemental crystallization, buried only deep in rare mineral veins, and is needed in most of the magical activities of wizards, such as making potions, alchemy, and enchanting.

Its rarity and wide range of uses destined it to be of extraordinary value.

For them, as apprentices, life and learning after arriving in the wizarding world all require the use of magic stones.

The book also specifically noted that for apprentices like them who had just entered the wizarding world, a dozen or twenty magic stones were basically enough to cover all their living expenses and cultivation resources for a month.

When Lin Qi was reading the book, he had seriously considered how he would earn magic stones after arriving in the wizarding world.

But now...

Lynch felt that all of these plans could be scrapped.

The random testing continues.

Next, the Eton wizard raised a series of questions, all of which were from the general knowledge guide.

After asking seven or eight questions in a row, the assessment came to an end.

The Eton wizard said, "Apprentices who weren't chosen need not be disappointed. The significance of today's assessment lies not in the rewards, but simply in telling you—"

"You reap what you sow, and you should reap what you sow!"

"Equivalent exchange, did you all remember that?"

The apprentices nodded.

At this moment, a girl stood up and asked a question; it was Irina, the one who answered first.

She stood up and asked in a clear, melodious voice, "My lord wizard, I would like to ask, why must wizards adhere to the principle of equal exchange?"

"If we need to treat our parents, relatives, close friends, and lovers based solely on a purely equitable exchange, defined by self-interest, isn't that too cold-hearted?"

Everyone's attention immediately focused on the girl.

Simon teased Thorne, "Thorne, your white moonlight is really brave."

Thorne's face darkened: "What nonsense are you spouting?"

The Eton Wizard's gaze fell on Irina.

He paused for a moment, then said, "According to the rules, you need to pay me a fee for answering this question before I can answer you, Miss Irina."

Irina was taken aback, but quickly took out the magic stone she had just acquired: "Is this alright, my lady?"

The Eton Wizard shook his head: "This is far from enough compared to the answer to this question."

Irina was momentarily at a loss.

However, Eton Wizard then changed the subject, saying, "But this is not the wizarding world yet, and you do not belong to the wizarding world for the time being, so I can tell you the answer for free."

He paused briefly before continuing, "As wizards, our lives are very long, and our loved ones, lovers, and friends will all leave us sooner or later."

"Throughout this long period of time, emotions have no meaning for wizards; for us wizards, only absolute value has meaning."

Therefore, everything must be measured by value!

At this point, he emphasized, "Always remember that the pursuit of truth and eternity is the very meaning of our existence as wizards."

The apprentices seemed to understand, but not quite.

Lin Qi seemed to be deep in thought.

"It's okay if you don't understand. When you get to that world, you'll gradually understand as time goes by."

"That's what the Eton wizard said in conclusion."

......

That night.

The shattered starlight scattered on the deep blue silk, flickering with the rise and fall of the waves.

Inside the cabin of the Qidi, orange light shines through frosted glass lampshades, casting a warm and soft glow on the cabin walls.

Lin Qi lay on the bed, holding a book in his hands.

This is a complete spell model, which was handed out by the Eton wizard after today's assessment.

According to the Eton wizard, as per the rules of the White Tower, he was required to teach this spell to his apprentices during his travels.

To be honest, when Lin Qi first learned that there was magic to learn, he was actually quite excited.

Drifting on the vast ocean, unable to do anything and unable to return to the Land of the Dead, he had been feeling incredibly bored for a long time. This magic really came at just the right time.

However, when the spell scroll was actually delivered to Lin Qi, he was speechless.

The reason is simply the name of this spell model book—

The Wizard's Hand

That's right, it was the Wizard's Hand technique that Lynch had already learned.

Oh my god, why is it repeating itself?

Lynch has already leveled this spell to level 2. Basic spells like this can only be level 3 at most. If Lynch takes another step forward, it will be at max level.

The model they distributed is this? This is ridiculous!

Unlike the other apprentices who cheered and were full of enthusiasm, rushing off to study immediately after the assessment, Lin Qi threw the scroll aside as soon as he returned to the cabin.

It wasn't until night, after finishing all his daily cultivation exercises, that Lin Qi, feeling utterly bored, opened the book before going to sleep.

Originally, it was just something to kill time when I was bored.

However, after watching for a while, he couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"That's strange, how come it's different?"

The contents of the Wizard's Hand on this scroll differ from those of the Wizard's Hand he swept from the Land of the Dead.

The basic principles are all pretty much the same: using mental power to control the elemental ions around the mayfly, creating an energy field, and thus controlling the things around them.

However, the differences are significant in the details.

The description of the wizard's hand in the Land of the Dead is quite detailed, clearly marking everything from the extension of every spiritual force to the order of every element and the calculation of every spatial coordinate.

It's like a three-dimensional model meticulously drawn with countless fine lines, with impeccable details, just like a work of art.

However, the Wizard's Hand scroll distributed by the Eton wizard was incredibly crude, basically only explaining the basic principles and simply informing about the most basic element sorting, etc.

To use a similar analogy, it's like casually picking up a pen and sketching a blurry outline of a shape on paper, without any details.

This difference is reflected in the spell models, and the gap is truly enormous.

How should we interpret this difference...?

If he could only sum it up in two words, Lin Qi felt it would be—

behind...
