It's weird to apply for Witch Academy as a boy

"It should be noted that Yu Meng must be promoted to a soul. Creating life is not very difficult for me, but creating a life that has never existed is the difficulty. Otherwise, if you create an existing life, even if it is extinct, it will not work. You cannot deduce the original spell sequence based on this life. This involves the operation of the void and the deep level."

"Hmm..." I nodded, looking like a serious and studious student, but I still had some doubts, "Um... Dean, Yumeng was originally a dream creature, right? Can it really become a new life recognized by the void? Dean, didn't you say that dreams and reality are completely isolated?"

"Good question. The fact that you ask this question shows that you are thinking." The dean nodded with satisfaction when he heard my question and quickly answered it for me.

"This is related to what I just said that nothing is absolute. Are dreams and reality really completely separated? This requires mentioning the answer given by the Witch of Truth codenamed Soul. It is not true!"

"The Soul Truth Witch's greatest contribution to the witch race and the void is not her interpretation of life, but her exploration of the soul. She found the authority of dreams in dreams. Relying on the authority of dreams, she blurred the boundary between dreams and reality. You have used dream equipment, right? It can be used and promoted so conveniently. The Soul Truth Witch has made a lot of efforts."

"What is a dream? It is an absurd and disordered virtual world comparable to the entire endless void. In a broad sense, people also classify the dream world as a part of the void, but most of the time, the term void refers to the real void."

"You don't have the chance to create new life in the void. You have to find another way and follow the path opened up by the Witch of Soul Truth to blur the boundary between reality and dreams. Only then will creatures in dreams have the possibility of becoming real life."

"This..." After hearing this, I finally understood how difficult the trial mission the dean gave me was!

It seems like you are opening up a new track, but in reality you have to rely on yourself to explore, and there is no way forward!

This is such a huge pit!

"What? Regret it?"

"No...no..." I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, anyway, the dean didn't set a deadline for me, the worst that could happen is I can just take my time.

Isn't the life span of a witch very long?

Take your time. Suppose, even if I really succeed, with this experience, my accumulation and experience in dream creatures can create more new life and obtain more original spell sequences. Anyway, I won’t lose anything, right?

After talking about life, the dean also told me some trivial things that followed.

At this moment, I also understood that it seems that it is not so easy for Yu Meng to escape from the category of dream creatures. This requires step-by-step planning.

I originally thought that I would be able to pet the cute little cat girl Yumeng after this trip, but now I realize it’s still too early…

"That's about it. If there are any other arrangements, I will contact you directly. You can go back now. I'm sorry for taking up a lot of your time."

"Well, goodbye, Dean."

Mei Lind just watched Ji Niang take me away until their figures disappeared.

She could see that Xiaohan's essence was different from that of the people in this world; it was the soul.

Although this was unexpected, it was also very common for abnormalities to occur. However, the combination of the soul and the innate spiritual vision made it the first existence in the main world that did not go crazy.

The other party also proved that the value of high-level clairvoyance was terrifying, so May Lind couldn't just watch the other party being consumed and wasted in the script, which would be a waste.

At first, the Witch Academy did not take such existence very seriously, but the appearance of Yang Yuehan proved a possibility, that is, the blessing of the soul and the main world. The superposition of spiritual vision seems to have new possibilities, and the soul seems to be able to withstand the impact of the blessing of spiritual vision.

This further increases the value of the main world's scripts.

The extraordinary witches in the Witch Academy will have a longer-term vision. The son of luck created by the script will complete the script, carry the sublimation of luck and be promoted to become the son of destiny, becoming the darling of the main world's consciousness.

With the help of the Son of Destiny, the life essence of the main world can be rewritten as soul. Then those innate clairvoyants in this world will no longer be terminally ill, but true geniuses!

Think about Yang Yuehan at this moment. Just thinking about it, Mei Lind feels that if this kind of thing is accomplished, then how huge is the value of this main world!

Now the academy has to make a choice: is it for Yang Yuehan or for the script?

No matter how great the value Yang Yuehan demonstrates, it is just adding chips to the script this time.

They can still distinguish between one genius and an endless supply of geniuses.

Since the academy is already prepared to do its best to protect the script, removing Yang Yuehan from the script, who has shown a strong ability to interfere with the script, is the option that maximizes benefits at this stage.

And saving Yang Yuehan and investing in her was Mei Lind's selfish desire, because she didn't know whether every innate clairvoyant who came after her would be as unreasonably terrifying as Yang Yuehan.

Chapter 286: Effects of Small Spell Books

"Xiao Han, what is your relationship with the dean?"

Teacher Ji Niang, who accompanied me out of the dean's office, finally asked me a question.

This time, Ji Niang never thought that things would develop like this.

A powerful and extraordinary witch who holds the position of dean would actually tell these things to a student!

Not to mention the Great Spell Book, but also the original spell sequence, new life and so on, all these things have been discussed.

This is not what a student should hear at all.

These things are still under research even in front of the research-oriented witches in the Witch Academy. The witches are celebrating the dean's success like a festival until now.

How many extraordinary witches are there in the Witch Academy?

There are many of them, and there are a lot of them. The number of extraordinary witches in the Witch Academy is far more than it seems, but they just don't show up. They are just teachers in the main world's Witch Academy and are qualified to stay here, without any other needs.

Some of them are devoted to the great spell book. As long as a witch with [supernatural knowledge] shouts out, a large number of supernatural witches will come to help you.

Some are cultivating new life and obtaining the original spell sequences for new life. These are all popular research topics, and there are many others, including unpopular ones.

There are even many people like the dean in the Witch Secret Realm who have put their research layout into the Witch Secret Realm, but it is not conspicuous. As long as you go to the college system to look for tasks related to the Witch Secret Realm, you can find a lot of research-related tasks.

Some witches will even go to other extraordinary academies for exchanges and cooperation. The grudges between academies will not interfere with the cooperation between scholars. If they interfere, then the academy will have to wait for a replacement group of people. Such short-sighted guys are not qualified to be the face of the extraordinary academy.

The extraordinary academy set up in the main world is essentially for scholars to conduct research in this special world, and the concept of the academy is attached to it.

Because they discovered the blessing that the people of the Main World were given by the world consciousness, clairvoyance, so incorporating the people of the Main World into their own race also became a form of competition between different races.

Competition and fighting are inevitable in the main world, but those who take action are never extraordinary strong people, only students. This has become a kind of unspoken rule.

"It's the relationship between an ordinary student and the dean... I guess." I shrugged and said, no matter whether Teacher Ji Niang believed it or not, I was telling the truth anyway.

"Well, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I didn't expect the dean would worry so much about you."

After sending me out, Ji Niang left me outside and teleported away.

Seeing such a convenient method, I am also very envious. Unfortunately, I only have one teleportation summoning spell now, which can teleport others but not myself.

I looked at the time. I had wasted quite a bit of time with the dean. The alchemy course had not yet ended, so I thought I could go take another look. After all, I had paid for it.

After I came back, the teacher glared at me, and after confirming that I was the one who ran away before, he ignored me.

It seems that paying in advance is really useful.

"Xiao Han, why are you back?" Bai Yu was a little surprised at this moment. She thought she would be alone for the whole class.

"I came back after finishing my work. By the way, where did the teacher leave off?"

"This is my notes. Take a look." Sister Bai handed me her notes and showed them to me.

I took it directly and recorded all the content that I had not heard yet in the spell book on my memory bookshelf.

The function of this kind of spell book is convenience, but at the same time, when I was in the Secret Realm of Fool's Dream, reality also taught me a lesson, that is, spells are spells after all. At least when I haven't fully mastered the spell book, the knowledge recorded in the spell book does not belong to me.

Before long, the class was over. This was a course that taught the basic operations of alchemy. The basics were really important, including but not limited to many standard movements of alchemy operations, the mental skills needed, or the spells that needed to be coordinated, etc. A lot of knowledge and skills were not in the books. Many things, even the small habits that the teacher mentioned casually, were formed through experience after countless times.

That's right, alchemy is such a complex existence, or it can be said that alchemy is another way to use supernatural powers, similar to the way witches use spells and warriors use physical skills.

It's just a different tendency.

There are many branches in alchemy, such as stone alchemy for refining potions, energy alchemy similar to the spells cast by mages, biological alchemy similar to the beast taming school, and mechanical alchemy of the mechanical school.

The teachers who taught alchemy even arrogantly said that any skills and the use of extraordinary energy could be integrated into alchemy. Although this statement was a bit exaggerated, alchemy could indeed achieve most of the effects.

Of course, at this stage, I don’t need to get in touch with too many branches of alchemy, because the early exercises of alchemy are actually similar. The basics need to be universal, and then they can be differentiated and developed according to one’s own situation. After all, not everyone who studies alchemy is an all-rounder.

But every apprentice who has just come into contact with alchemy thinks that she is a jack of all trades, but reality will quickly slap her in the face.

After class, Sister Bai accompanied me to have a meal in the cafeteria of the teaching area. In the afternoon, I planned to go shopping in the college market.

Mainly, I still want to buy small spell books, targeting those used in alchemy. If I come across one that looks good, I will buy it as well.

Spell books are a scarce commodity in the Witch Academy. The higher the level of the spell book, the rarer it is. After all, there aren't a lot of "purchase channels" for this stuff. One has to either buy it through their own accumulated assets, or through consignment sales by others, or through spell book recycling, etc.

So the price is still negotiable. After all, the value of spell effects is highly subjective. Some effects are very particular in special circumstances, while some effects may seem useless to others.

While strolling around the market, I finally got to see how wild the spell effects of the small spell book were.

As expected, there are no systematic rituals inside, only structured small spell books. However, I have not come into contact with many small spell books. I have seen traces of rune rituals in many small spell books, but they are still classified as small spell books.

It seems that there are many different definitions of small spell books in the academy. According to what I asked the senior sisters who were selling them, I found that the cleaning spell that I had always thought was a basic spell book actually also belongs to... a small spell book, and it clearly has a ritual inside.

It seems that they cannot see through the spell book, so their definition of the spell book is still a bit too rough...

"This... the effect of this small spell book is quite interesting..." I looked at the handwritten paper describing the effect of the small spell book, and this behavior was also seen by the senior student who was selling it.

"Junior sister, are you interested in this small spell book? The spell target of this spell book is the pen, which frees your hands. You don't need to get your hands sore when taking notes in class. It is also very cool to use. You will definitely be the most eye-catching one in the class~" The senior sister enthusiastically promoted the deal to me.

I don't know if this method would have created new possibilities if it had been used in conjunction with the memory bookshelf that required me to write things by hand?

Although this small spell book seems to appear a little late, I still plan to buy it. After all, even if I have the memory bookshelf spell book, it doesn’t mean that I won’t use a pen to write something in the future.

Moreover, this small spell book is not very expensive. It doesn’t even require extraordinary materials to purchase it. It only requires money, yes, money from the outside world.

Sure enough, this is the normal price of goods in the Witch Academy. Money will never be eliminated as long as the outside society continues to function normally.

"Well, can it be cheaper? I'll buy it if it's cheaper. After all, it can only help me take notes or something. It's not worth thousands of dollars, right?"

"Aiya~ This is a spell. Don't just judge it by its effects. Its value itself is the most important thing."

"That's not worth it. Nowadays, small spell books are dominated by pragmatism. The effects are really not worth that much. Can't you just reduce it a little bit?"

"Lower...Lower...You tell me a number..."

In the end, this senior student still endured the pain and sold it to me at a low price. Although she looked uncomfortable, since she agreed immediately, it meant that she made a profit.

Along the way, I did collect quite a few small spell books. The effects and prices of these spell books varied greatly. Some could be bought with money, while others even required red copper.

"How is it? It seems that you have gained a good harvest." Bai Yu asked as he watched me fiddling with these small spell books.

"Indeed, I feel that compared to ordinary spell books, small spell books focus more on effects, and even their effects are directly free to the touch."

"That's true. After all, the power of a small spell book is not as strong as that of even the weakest basic consumable spell book. Instead of pursuing this kind of direct damage, it is more practical to focus on the effect."

"Well...but I still want to say it's really amazing. I want to buy every small spell book I see, but it seems like I won't be able to use them." I observed the small spell book carefully, and it gave me the illusion that I could do it too.

But even a small spell book is still a spell book, and the threshold for its creation is to master the real editing technology.

However, since so many small spell books are for the students, and only the teachers of the Extraordinary Witch can make spell books, this also shows that this is a creative channel provided by the students. At least in terms of inspiration for the effects of the small spell books, students' opinions must have been collected.

I asked Sister Bai about this and found out that the college actually has special clubs like this. Some clubs cooperate with some idle teachers to make these small spell books, while some clubs are even more amazing and can make their own spell books based on blank spell books provided by teachers.

After hearing about such a club, my eyes widened immediately. Maybe Sister Bai didn’t know the real editing technology, or what this skill represented, but those seniors who customized the small spell books must be geniuses!

All they had to do to create a true spellbook was advance to the level of Transcendent Master of True Editing.

I didn't expect that this form of magic modified spell books has already been used in the Witch Academy, but they are targeting small spell books, while the first one I used is Fireball, maybe it’s the difference in clairvoyance.

But apart from the advantage of clairvoyance, the experience and knowledge accumulated by the other party is definitely far beyond mine.

So... I still can't look down on those seniors, right...

And the so-called blank spell book might not just be truly blank. The teacher probably wanted to save time, so he made all the necessary preparations before letting them tinker with it themselves.

Of course, it may also be because they have extremely strong attainments in spell books, so they can get used to the feeling of creating spell books in advance.

Thinking of this, I remembered the perspective of a real editor that the dean gave me in the Great Spell Book. Is that a real editor?

It seems that there is still a long way to go.

A few more days passed.

I have been doing the same these days, as if I had returned to normal college life, without any impact.

But the cost is also huge, not only the alchemy courses, but also the rune courses, and the thresholds for these courses are quite expensive.

I thought I was rich because of the resources from the academy and all the gold I had, but the academy told me that I was still poor.

But I still have to take these courses, but I won't take them casually. I will definitely learn some of them by myself, and then ask the teacher if I don't understand.

This way of learning, at least for me, is the best and most efficient. I have also learned a lot these days.

It was not until the dean sent me a private message that I realized that the matter of foolish dreams had begun.

I recalled the dean's earlier description of the script, which was acting.

Originally, Teacher Ji Niang told me that I could do whatever I wanted with the luck I had at the moment. As long as I had luck as a bargaining chip, any event held in my name would attract those owners of luck seeds who were waiting to be selected.

But now plans cannot keep up with changes, and the luck I have needs to be given to Nightmare. But it doesn’t matter. The dean said that she has already made arrangements to transfer the luck to Nightmare, and Nightmare will be the next script event node, and its nature is actually the same as the exchange competition.

"They want me to go to the dream equipment...it looks like they are really going to take action."

I looked at the message sent to me by the dean on my phone and realized that I had to take action. After all, what Teacher Ji Niang said was right. My luck belongs to me and others cannot take it away directly, so it requires some operations to transfer it.

"Hmm? What are you going to do?" Bai Yu also asked at this moment. Sister Bai has been with me these days. She also knows that I have many secrets, but she will not force me to tell them.
