Witcher starts with Get Inspiration Panel

But under the current situation, he must meet his mentor first.

So, on the way to Seles Alchemy Room, Richard thought about two sets of excuses.

The first set of excuses was made when Seles recognized himself as a second-level wizard apprentice when the breath-holding was effective. The other set of rhetoric was when the breath-holding was seen through, and Seles recognized himself as a third-level wizard. Prepared when the apprentice is at his peak.

Just when Richard walked into Seles's two-story building, he deliberately stayed for a while in several alchemy rooms available for rent on the first floor, but unfortunately, he did not see a familiar figure.

After reaching the second floor, Richard waited at the door of Seles' special alchemy room as usual.

But as soon as Richard stood still, he heard a familiar voice coming from inside the door. It was the voice of his mentor Seles.

"Richard?" This time, Seles didn't call Richard to come in, but opened the door and walked out.

The surprise and excitement in the instructor's words allowed Richard to clearly feel the other person's joy.

Suddenly, a warm current seemed to surge into Richard's heart!

"Teacher, I have made you worried!" Richard looked at Seles and bowed at a ninety-degree angle for a long time and said.

Seles helped Richard up and looked at him, "Hey! Your mental power seems to have reached the peak of a second-level apprentice?"

Richard was stunned, pretended to be embarrassed, and touched his head, "Yes, mentor, in the past six months, I have gained some insights into Rodrigo's meditation method, so my mental strength has improved relatively quickly!"

Richard felt a little lucky in his heart. It seemed that the special breath-concentrating effect of Rodrigo Meditation was so powerful that even a formal wizard like his mentor could not tell his true strength.

Without the special effect of holding one's breath, once the peak mental power of a third-level wizard apprentice is exposed, even if Master Seles can accept his words, the school level will probably be very troublesome.

Although he won’t be dragged away to be sectioned, hearings from the school and various tests will follow, which will be extremely troublesome!

"Come in and sit down and talk." After a brief moment of excitement, Seles quickly regained his composure.

This is the quality of a formal wizard, being able to quickly stay calm at all times.

The two entered the alchemy room. After sitting down, Richard briefly talked to his instructor about what happened to him, and then concealed the teleportation array, Fingart, and the blind fishman. tribe.

He just said that he was knocked into the underground river by the ancient dark fish-man. When he fainted, he drifted with the current and came to a strange area without knowing it.

When he woke up again, he found that there were many monsters in this area. After many battles, he luckily found an underground river and returned to the surface.

Richard also gave examples of battles with various monsters from time to time, such as brain-eating monsters, devil horned frogs, etc., but did not mention powerful monsters such as mutant crab monsters and troll mantises that even third-level wizard apprentices find troublesome.

Because the strength shown by Richard at this time is the top level of a second-level wizard apprentice, and the monster that matches it is the most suitable, otherwise it may be counterproductive.

This kind of lie is mixed with half of the truth, which is the most difficult to distinguish.

It's not that Richard deliberately wanted to hide something, but he felt that after saying some things, his inspiration panel might be involved, otherwise it would be impossible to explain at all.

And the inspiration panel is your biggest secret, so just think of it as a white lie!

Hearing Richard's battles with various monsters, Seles nodded repeatedly. He also quite praised Richard's various battle responses and immediately did not doubt it.

Because in his early years, when Serais had just become an official wizard, he had traveled to the Dark Area and encountered one or two of the monsters that Richard mentioned.

Moreover, he also knew that there were many mezzanines and gaps between the surface and the Dark Territory. A wizard apprentice was washed into a mezzanine along the underground river. It is indeed rare for a wizard apprentice to survive in this situation, but it is not impossible. .

As far as he knew, the Ignis School alone had recorded this situation no less than seven or eight times. Of course, the most recent one was decades ago.

Therefore, in Seles' view, Richard's luck was really good. In this situation, he could survive by chance. Moreover, the most important thing is that Richard's strength has been greatly improved.

While talking about what he had learned, Richard also took out more than ten kinds of unique herbs from the Dark Region from his package. To be precise, some of them are also found on the surface, but they are only available in some extremely special places. There is production, but the output is very small, so it is extremely precious on the surface.

"Is this the golden fern fruit? This is the rosemary? This is" Seles, who was obsessed with alchemy, was overjoyed and immediately stood up, carefully identifying the herbs that Richard took out.

Looking at his overjoyed instructor, Richard couldn't help but smile.

Although Seles is a master of pharmacy, there are still several rare herbs produced in the Underdark that even Seles can't name at once.

"Teacher, these herbs are prepared for you." Richard said with a smile.

The surprise on Seles's face was beyond words, but after taking a deep look at Richard, he shook his head and said, "Although I like it very much, I can't violate the wizard's principle of equivalent exchange. Let's talk about it, Li Cha." Cha, what do you want?"

Seles's meticulous attitude made Richard feel dizzy.

"Teacher, don't be so strict. I am just out of gratitude to you. I really don't want to make a deal with you." Richard smiled bitterly and said.

"Oh~ Do you really have nothing to ask me?" Seles smiled slightly.

"Haha, I really have a few questions to ask you about this, but I can pay you to consult with you. It has nothing to do with these herbs." Richard said rather embarrassedly.

"Go on"

"Well, I just want to ask you about the origin of Rodrigo's meditation method. It would be great if you could tell me the details about that exploration of the ruins."

"Oh, it seems that you have already started preparing for promotion to the official wizard?" Seles looked at Richard with a smile.

"Hey, it's not a bad thing to get ready early." Richard scratched his head and said.

"Although you are my disciple, several of us who participated have promised not to disclose any information about the ruins to the outside world. Therefore, I can only give you the information about Rodrigo that I searched for, and the price is It’ll be offset by the price of your herbal medicines.”

After listening, Richard's expression changed, and he was obviously a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, he nodded in agreement. It's better than nothing. "Okay, mentor."

"Actually, even if I can tell you the information about that ruin, it will be of little use to you. Moreover, you have to pay a large amount of magic stones in addition, because that ruin is no longer possible to open, at least for a second-level wizard or below. There is no possibility of forcing it open. So, it’s a good thing that you don’t know.”

Hearing Seles's cryptic words, Richard immediately understood something.

What the instructor probably means is that the entrance to the ruins must have been destroyed for some reason, and other possible ways to enter must have been inaccessible.

If you want to enter, the only way left is to break through violently, which requires the strength of at least a second-level wizard or above.

Obviously, Richard does not have this ability at this stage.

"Richard, don't have high expectations for the follow-up content of Rodrigo's Meditation Method. Even with the information I gave you, it will be very difficult for you to find some useful clues."

Richard nodded. It's true. Ancient wizards often left a lot of puzzle-solving words or patterns. If you can't understand or detect the key, even if you are given the specific location of the ruins, you still won't be able to enter.

What's more, Rodrigo was so long ago that many of the contents left behind by the other party are missing. It will be even more difficult to find any clues from the missing information.

"But, Richard, do you know why advanced meditation methods are so scarce?" Seles said, handing a thumb-sized recording crystal to Richard.

What was recorded in it was some information about Rodrigo that Seles had collected.

After taking it respectfully, Richard shook his head and said, "I hope the instructor can give me some advice."

"This starts with formal wizards. You know, the power of formal wizards has far surpassed the boundaries of ordinary people and even knights. Even a hundred formal knights will be difficult to compete with a first-level wizard head-on.

But if you want to become an official wizard, you need a lot of resources, and after you become a wizard, you need even more resources."

As Seles's ups and downs voice told some secrets, a bright light seemed to flash in Richard's eyes, and he thought secretly: "It turns out that the lack of resources has caused the upper class of the wizarding world to have a negative attitude toward official wizards. Promotion is so tightly controlled.”

"So, even I can't reveal to you the knowledge about being promoted to a formal wizard obtained from the Ignis School, but I can give you some tips. There is a very big difference in being promoted to a formal wizard.

The first is that ordinary third-level wizard apprentices rely on the limit-breaking water to barely break into the first-level wizards. Of course, this is the bottom among the first-level wizards, but it is also the one with the largest number of people.

Most of the innate witchcraft he masters are zero-level witchcraft mastered during his apprenticeship, which are far less powerful than the first-level witchcraft, so his combat power is at the bottom, and the most important thing is that he has no way forward and cannot practice to a second-level wizard. .

At this time, it is already too late to practice advanced meditation methods, because advanced meditation methods require the first level of foundation to be laid during the apprenticeship period!

The second situation, which is much better than the first situation, refers to those situations where people successfully promoted to the first level wizard by accidentally acquiring a certain first-level witchcraft plus limit-breaking water.

Although the innate witchcraft he mastered was also a first-level witchcraft, most of the first-level witchcraft he acquired did not match the meditation method he practiced, which also led to the interruption of the way forward.

This kind of promotion situation is the most common among ordinary wizard families, and their combat ability is considered to be in the middle.

However, among some of the first-level wizards who were promoted in the second situation, there are some very good first-level wizards, which requires extra attention. "
