Two Realms: The Dark Wizard Evolves Madly in the Wasteland

"Raven, your mental strength is very powerful, perhaps even stronger than some intermediate apprentices. It seems you work very hard!"

After the dinner, Zod leaned back in his chair, looking at Raven with undisguised admiration in his eyes.

Then, as if remembering something, he took out a memory crystal ball that emitted a faint light from his wide sleeves and gently pushed it in front of Raven.

"Here you go. These are some case studies of failed construct experiments that Senior Sister Lilynet prepared for you... She doesn't like to interact with others much, but she's a really nice person!"

"It should be of some help to your current development."

Zod's voice was low and cold, but Raven could sense his goodwill.

Raven accepted the crystal ball with both hands and respectfully said, "Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother! Thank you, Senior Sister..."

Zod's expressionless, deadpan face turned serious:

"Remember this: never have anything to do with Vice Dean Karthus... He's the most hated formal wizard by Instructor Colton!"

"My mentor is a person who seems cold on the outside but is warm on the inside, and he cherishes old friendships. He actually values ​​our achievements very much, so remember, never slack off..."

Listening to Zod's heartfelt advice, Raven gripped the crystal ball tightly in his hand, a warm feeling welling up inside him.

He nodded solemnly: "I will keep Fourth Senior Brother's teachings in mind."

As Raven left the dragon skeleton, the night breeze was still slightly cool, but his heart was burning with excitement.

"Vice Dean... Karsas..."

Raven silently pondered the name, imprinting it deep within his mind.

Stepping out of the dragon skeleton and into the darkness of the Shadow Academy, a chilling wind instantly pierced through the thin wizard's robes.

Since it was late at night, no one was around in the college.

In the past, Raven would never have wandered around the academy late at night.

However, he didn't have so many concerns now. You have to know Colton's status in the enforcement team. Many enforcement wizards who patrolled at night only glanced at Raven when they saw the Colton Medal on his chest, nodded, and let him leave.

"Vice Dean Carlsus... Richard..."

On his way back to the dormitory, Raven kept piecing together background information about this man in his mind.

Karthus is the vice-principal of the Shadow Academy, a powerful and influential official wizard within the academy.

This is completely different from Colton's mentor's focused, aloof, and indifferent personality.

Calthus was extremely passionate about power and expansion.

He controlled the academy's vast resource allocation network, and had a large number of sycophantic apprentices and wizards under his command.

In the academy, almost no one dared to provoke the apprentices under the wizard Karthus.

Raven looked up at the magnificent dragon skeleton deep within the inner ring, and a strong sense of belonging and crisis welled up in his heart.

In this cannibalistic world, an apprentice without a background is like a candle flickering in the wind, easily extinguished. Only with the protection of his mentor did he barely gain the qualifications to stand firm in this academy.

"Six months..."

Raven gripped the memory crystal ball tightly, his expression growing increasingly resolute in the night.

"No matter where you are... strength reigns supreme! I'll lie low for a while, raise my strength to level two wizard apprentice, then go to the wasteland to explore the Huangshan Research Institute, find more gene potions related to telekinesis, or collect more potions related to perception!"

He took a deep breath of the cold air, suppressing his vigilance towards Karthus to the deepest level, and then, with steady steps, disappeared into the dark corridor leading to the outer apprentice district.

"Deep Blue crawler...scanning the memory crystal ball!"

"The biggest difference between a second-level wizard apprentice and a first-level wizard apprentice lies in whether or not they have the concept of a mana bar in their body. Usually, as long as twenty will runes are drawn, the mental power will change and form a highly compressed liquid mental power in the body."

"At the same time, a second-level wizard apprentice must master more than five zero-ring spells and more than five spell models."

Raven followed above the deep blue crawler, scanning and analyzing the differences between first- and second-level wizard apprentices to determine their classification.

A second-level apprentice is at least several times stronger than a first-level apprentice, and this is not only reflected in the number of spells they know.

"Deep Blue Crawler, build the model. Within six months, I want to break through to the level two wizard apprentice. With the help of meditation potions, my basic meditation speed will be three times faster than usual. At the same time, after taking the lucidity potion, I will meditate for at least sixteen hours a day. At my current speed, how long will it take me to become a level two wizard apprentice?"

"Preliminary calculations indicate it will take approximately 154 days and 36 minutes..."

Raven pondered for a moment.

"Six months is much faster than I expected. Subtracting the time spent each week making the basic bull construct, plus three to six hours of experimentation each week, I roughly calculate how much time it will take in total!"

"177 days and 34 minutes..."

"very good……"

Having been a low-level apprentice at the Norlan Wizard Academy for so many years, even if I were to break through to the level two wizard apprentice in just six months, probably not many people would care.

After all, time is of the essence.

For the next six months, aside from the experiments he had to participate in, Raven planned to focus all his energy on breaking through to become a Level 2 Wizard Apprentice in his dormitory.

Now he not only has a formal wizard as his mentor, but also two senior brothers and sisters to protect him. As long as Raven doesn't go too high-profile and arouse the resentment of some formal wizards, given the selfish and self-serving nature of formal wizards that Raven knows, they won't pay attention to an unknown second-class apprentice like him.

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, he would regularly explore the wasteland almost every two weeks, and incidentally transform into a tentacle monster to create constructs.

In the wizarding world, he would either retreat to his room to meditate or do odd jobs in Colton's laboratory, occasionally helping his senior sister Lilynette deal with living monsters.

Lilynette and Colton are practically identical; both are taciturn and extremely focused.

Sometimes an experiment can go on for more than ten hours straight without the two of them saying a word to each other.

Raven also gained a great deal while following Lilynette.

Now he has not only learned how to make the most basic wind crow construct, but also has a certain understanding of living constructs.

Living constructs, as the name suggests, are constructed directly onto the skin of a wizard or creature. Unlike Raven's construct on a bull's hide, this method allows the human body to absorb the power from the monster itself to a certain extent.

For example, the most basic Bull Construct theoretically grants the user the power of a bull.

It is only the power emanating from the structural parts that drives the operation of other areas.

Power can be greatly lost, but living constructs are different; they are created by directly inscribing magic circles onto human skin and periodically applying bull blood.

Not only will it grant the wizard the strength of a whole bull, but their body will also become similar to that of a bull, and their physical attributes will be greatly enhanced.

Of course, living constructs also subtly influence a wizard's personality.

Ordinary first-level wizard apprentices have limited physical capacity and can only equip a maximum of two basic constructs. Third-level wizard apprentices are in a better situation, as they can equip three basic constructs after their physique is enhanced.
