In the vast and boundless sea of ​​sand, the Orville sailed steadily.

The setting sun bathed the desert in a golden hue.

Some sand sea creatures roamed on the undulating sand dunes, avoiding the Orville as it sailed through the sand sea.

Every now and then, wizards riding magic brooms would speed through the air.

On the deck of the Orville, Verin was also curiously observing the sand sea of ​​the wizarding world, as well as the sand sea creatures that he had only learned about in books.

【Scorching Sandstone Lizard】Its entire body is dark brown, and its dorsal fin is fiery red and crystalline. It can absorb sunlight to store heat and convert it into fire magic. It has the 【Fire Specialization】 attribute. Juvenile Scorching Sandstone Lizards can breathe fire, while adult Scorching Sandstone Lizards will swallow sand and then breathe large lava fireballs.

Stone-throated camel

A bipedal desert camel, its head and torso are covered with rocky armor, and it has a blue resonance crystal in its throat. It feeds on desert plants and has the [Sonic Resonance] attribute. Through the wind-elemental magic crystal in its throat, it can release magical sound waves.

The magical crystal in its throat is a good alchemical material, which makes it a target for wizard hunters.

【The Vengeful Spirit of the Dry Sands】

A semi-transparent, sand-mist-like desert undead, formed from the resentment of deceased travelers and magical sand grains. With a blurred face, it possesses the [Soul Enhancement] attribute. It feeds at dusk and night, absorbing the body heat and magic of the living, and hides in dead trees and tombstones during the day.

Magical creatures that can survive in the dangerous desert all possess considerable abilities and magical power.

A low-level wizard apprentice like Vilin, abandoned in the desert, probably wouldn't last more than a few days.

After scanning over the sand monsters, Verin's gaze fell on several wizard guards dressed in red wizard robes, riding magic brooms, and standing on the deck.

Riding a magic broom and soaring through the sky was something that Verin naturally envied.

"Once you advance to the fourth-level wizard apprentice level and open up the magic pool, you will be able to ride a magic broom and fly through the sky."

"Only then can we wizards truly appreciate the wonder of being a wizard."

Just then, amidst the sound of footsteps, Aglen's voice rang out.

Verin turned around and saw the young wizard Aglen leading several wizard apprentices out of the cabin passageway.

"Hehe... That's true, but a fourth-level wizard apprentice is a mid-level wizard apprentice, a crucial threshold that's not easy to cross."

Before Verin could speak, someone else had already spoken first.

It was a young wizard, about seventeen or eighteen years old, following behind Aglen.

"really!"

Aglen nodded in agreement.

"Acquiring powerful [attributes] is an important part of becoming an intermediate wizard apprentice, and that is also the main purpose for everyone entering the Magic Rune Common Source Area."

"Vellin, everyone else should be here by now, let's go over there!"

Aglen waved to Verin.

Following Aglen, the group soon arrived at a rather spacious conference room on the Orville.

The tables and chairs in the conference room had been cleared out, and in the middle stood a roughly one-meter-tall alchemical furnace.

At this moment, the magic furnace was not burning with hot flames, but with pale blue "cold fireflies".

Upon entering the conference room, a cool sensation immediately enveloped Vilin, making him feel very comfortable.

Around the central magical fireplace, there were rows of woolen rugs for one person to sit cross-legged on.

At this moment, more than ten wizard apprentices had gathered here and were exchanging ideas with each other.

With the arrival of Vilin and others, the number of people exceeded twenty.

The Darkthorn Witch's Hut has a considerable number of people on this mission.

"Gentlemen!"

After everyone had found their seats, Agnès adjusted the brim of his wizard's hat, looked around, and slowly spoke.

The slightly authoritative voice quickly quieted the room.

"You were all participants in this operation at the Darkthorn Witch's Hut."

"However, the wizard apprentices who enter the Common Origin of Magic Runes are of diverse backgrounds."

"Not only are there members of our Holy Ship's mortal enemies, the Blood Curse Wizarding Order and the Bone Pact Wizarding Society, but also many young wizarding apprentices from wizarding families. In addition, there are also some wandering wild wizards."

"Everyone has also obtained relevant information from the Darkthorn Witch's Hut. The wizards of those two wizarding organizations are always ruthless and will try to kill us. If you encounter wizards from the Blood Curse Wizarding Order or the Bone Pact Wizarding Society, run away if you can and hide if you can. Do not get into a conflict with them."

Aglen's words seemed to have slightly displeased the well-equipped and prepared third-level wizard apprentices.

"Agren, our Holy Ship is part of the Saint Tarot Cult, and our foundation and potential are stronger than those two major wizarding organizations. Moreover, we wizard apprentices, who possess combat skills and are skilled in combat, are not weak either. Are we supposed to cower like turtles when we encounter them?"

One of the wizard apprentices, who came from the combat-oriented wizard tower, spoke in a rather forceful tone.

Aglen simply smiled faintly.

"Avoiding conflict is to reduce unnecessary damage, better accomplish tasks, and gain more benefits."

"If a conflict arises with those two wizarding sects, we must take action when necessary and not let them bully us."

"However, these two major wizarding organizations start training young wizards early, and some wizarding apprentices have obtained the [core terminology] at a young age. They have also specially cultivated many powerful wizarding spells. Moreover, some of them entered the [Magic Rune Common Source Land] with the purpose of eliminating our Holy Ship's young apprentices. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid some conflicts."

Upon hearing that the low-level wizard apprentices of the other two major wizarding orders had obtained the [core term] so early, the combat-oriented wizard apprentices couldn't help but change color.

Their changing expressions aroused suspicion among many other wizards.

"【Keywords】I've heard of it too, is it really that effective?"

A wizard apprentice asked curiously.

"certainly!"

Aglen nodded.

There are also differences between the entries.

"For example, terms like 'energy recovery' and 'physical resilience' are basically perfect candidates for low-level laborers who are inherently inferior to others."

"And the terms like magic amplification and mental amplification are the terms for 'superior person'."

When the topic of "magic amplification" came up, Agrien's gaze swept over Verin almost imperceptibly.

"Each wizarding faction will establish a [Mother Tree of Terms] to specifically cultivate term sprites, thereby obtaining more powerful terms."

"For example, the core attribute of the Blood Curse Wizarding Order, the Bloodborne Curse attribute, can amplify one's vitality and the power of blood curse magic by cultivating wizard blood."

"The core term of the [Bone Pact Wizarding Guild], [Demon Bone Pact], allows their skeletons to contain more magic power and also grants them a certain magic power boost."

"As core terms, they often have both a mechanism and a value. In addition, these terms have been carefully nurtured by the parent element, so their strength is a notch higher than that of quality terms."

"Once the core term is acquired, the wizard's strength will be significantly enhanced."

"Therefore, it is wiser to avoid wizards from these two wizarding factions."

After Aglen's explanation, the wizards who were trained in combat fell silent.

After all, they did not have access to the "core terms".

Unlike the other two wizarding factions, they did not train young wizards at an early age.

[Holy Ship] Here, you need to become at least an intermediate wizard apprentice to be eligible for training.

Unless they are born with excellent Silver, Gold, or Bronze tier attributes, they will not be cultivated early on.

However, such excellent seeds would certainly not be sent to the dangerous Magic Rune Origin Site.

Many of the wizards who head to the Land of Common Magic Runes are those who have difficulty becoming intermediate wizard apprentices and are trying every possible means to achieve this goal.

Aghren's explanation broadened Verin's horizons considerably.

"I wonder if my Gold-tier [Mental Tentacles] counts as a core keyword," he pondered to himself.

"alright!"

Aglen raised his voice a few decibels.

"This time, we've gathered together to share resources and improve our capabilities."

"I happen to have a few nice alchemical artifacts on hand, and they're not expensive. You can take a look."

Alchemy artifacts.

This has an immediate and significant effect on improving the wizards' strength.

Even Verin couldn't help but look over.

As Aglen took out several alchemical artifacts that shone with different elemental luster.

The crowd began to discuss in hushed tones, and the exchange gradually became lively.
