Chapter 417 Half a third-order wizard (5k)
'Because of the farmland...'
Colin looked at the sadness on Shelley's face, and not only sighed in his heart.
"Can the pollution be fixed?"
"It's hard." Shelley shook his head. "So far I still have no clue."
"The nature of farmland pollution is somewhat similar to filthy raving. If you study it for too long... it will lead to self-alienation out of control."
Colin was slightly taken aback...it has the same nature as dirty raving?
He frowned subconsciously.
If the pollution of those farmlands is the same as the filthy raving, long-term staring and contact will cause wizards to lose control, then the difficulty of researching a solution will undoubtedly be greatly increased.
It’s like dirty ravings. Although thousands of years have passed, wizards are still helpless against it. Part of the reason is obviously that dirty ravings will cause wizards to degenerate and alienate, which has brought great trouble to research...
"However, shortly after you left, the Supreme Council also sent a few wizards to investigate the pollution of farmland, but I don't know if they can find some solutions." Shelley continued.
"I hope there will be good news." Colin said.
"Yes, I hope, if those farmland pollution cannot be resolved as soon as possible, there will be big trouble." Shelley sighed.
The two chatted a few more words, and then walked into the laboratory respectively.
Shua!
The silver chamber unfolded like flowing water.
Colin stood in the center, but couldn't calm down.
Tilemei Plain is the largest food supply area in the area ruled by Neustadt City, but now it has suffered a devastating blow, that is, the city-states have not been broken, and the granary is still alive, so that temporary stability can be maintained.
Colin doesn't know how much grain storage there is in the Neustadt region as a whole, but I'm afraid it can only last for a year or two at most.
After one or two years, if the pollution of farmland is still not resolved, and there is no new food supplement...a great famine will inevitably break out.
Famine... was a distant word for Colin.
But as long as a normal person knows that it is a tragic disaster. Changing children to eat, hunger everywhere... Behind these simple words are unspeakable tragedies.
‘Perhaps the city of Neustadt can seek some food support from other wizard cities? '
Colin suddenly thought again.
Under the threat of the gods, the cities of the nine wizards are on the same front, and they should help each other out of emotion and reason.
However, even so, Neustadt cannot always rely on the assistance of the other wizarding cities, after all, the problem of food must be solved.
Moreover, it is still unknown whether the food output of the rest of the city of wizards can feed a large group of people in Neustadt.
These are not easy questions...
Thoughts kept flashing through his mind, and Colin slowly sat cross-legged on the ground.
If the wizarding world is a huge ship, then in the past, he was at best a piece of broken wood on the deck, insignificant, and could only drift with the ship.
But now, no matter in terms of strength or status, he is no longer insignificant, at least he is also a sailor, and he also knows that the giant ship is moving forward in dangerous seas, so he must think more.
The survival of this ship is closely related to its own survival. He doesn't want to hand everything over to others.
Sitting cross-legged and meditating like this, and letting his brain diverge for a while, Colin took out the Xisheng Meditation Thought and Hogia Meditation Crystal, and began to look at the third-level content.
No matter when, it is always right to improve one's own strength.
Hogia Holy Ring meditation—this is the meditation he is practicing now.
The main components are the Huoqiya meditation method and the Xisheng meditation method that he is looking at now.
Xi Shengming's thinking is mainly aimed at increasing the magic power. Wizards who practice this meditation method will have much more magic power than ordinary wizards of the same level.
The main direction of Hochia's meditation method is to improve the fine control ability of magic power.
Hogia Holy Ring Meditation, which is a fusion of the two, perfectly inherits the above advantages, and its quality is very good, enough to rank among the first echelon.
With a thought, Colin called out the golden paper.
The progress behind the column of wizard rank has reached 98/100 without knowing it.
After more than two years as an advanced second-level wizard, now he is about to advance to a third-level wizard.
The speed is fast, but Colin is not satisfied.
Noyce did not tell him the state of the gods who were sealed in the astral world, and how long they could be suppressed.
But judging from the current situation, the situation is obviously not optimistic.
Placing the crystal of knowledge between the eyebrows, Colin continued to read the third-order part of the meditation method.
When he was on Blackstone Island, he was warned that it is best not to get in touch with knowledge far beyond his current level in advance, so as not to be polluted and leave unnecessary hidden dangers.
Colin's curiosity has never been serious, and he naturally keeps such advice in mind, so this is the first time he has carefully read the meditation method of the third stage.
The essence of wizard training is the continuous growth and sublimation of the soul.
This sentence applies to every stage of wizard training.
It's just that each stage is different because of the specific situation, and the specific performance is also somewhat different.
During the apprenticeship period, the key point of cultivation is to increase the spirit to break through the mental fog.
There is no shortcut in this step, it is continuous meditation, continuous learning, and growth of one's own spirit.
In this process, the brilliance of humanity and knowledge will shine more and more, and when it reaches a certain stage, it will naturally break through the spiritual fog.
Break the mental fog, that is to say, you have reached the stage of senior wizard apprentice, and you can prepare to advance to the official wizard.
In this process, the most important thing is to cultivate the seed of talent. This is the key for the wizard to open the spiritual sea. Through the germination and growth of the seed of talent, the spiritual sea will also be opened up.
At the same time, the wizard will also get a talent.
Then to the second-level wizard stage, in addition to gaining a real talent again, the strength of the soul and the breadth of the spiritual sea will also be further improved.
As for the third order... Colin read it carefully, doubts gradually appearing on his face.
Compared with the second-level wizards, the third-level wizards will not have one more talent, but will strengthen the two talents they have acquired in the past. Completely condensed and clear, it can exist independently of the physical body!
'Completely condensed and clear...' Colin glanced at the explanation in Meditation again, feeling a little stunned.
He closed his eyes gently, focused on the center of his eyebrows, and looked inside his soul.
The facial features are clear, the outlines of muscles and joints are clearly visible, and even the strands of hair are distinct... There is no blur in his soul and body!
‘If according to the description of Meditation, doesn’t the current soul have reached the standard of a third-tier wizard? '
Colin couldn't help thinking, but soon he shook his head again:
'It's just clear, but as far as it is concerned, there is no way to separate the soul like a third-order wizard. '
‘However, it didn’t seem so clear at the time of advancement, and there were still some ambiguities... The specifics became so clear, as if after advancing to the second-level knight and developing the power of will? '
Although the power of will is somewhat different from pure spiritual power, it is similar in nature in many aspects. Perhaps because of this, after turning on the power of will, Colin also clearly felt that his soul became stronger under its influence some.
The strength of the soul is closely related to its outward clarity.
At that time, since Colin hadn't learned about third-order wizards, he didn't think it was so strange.
But the soul became completely clear, and it turned out to be one of the signs of a third-order wizard?
Continue to look down, after browsing through the two meditation methods, Colin came to a definite conclusion——
My current soul does already possess some of the characteristics of a third-tier wizard!
It is not only in the outward clarity of the soul.
Dual ability to cast spells before, aware of the true spirit of the third-level wizard Caesar, these are the characteristics that only the third-level wizards have!
If you say this, you are now half a third-tier wizard?
Colin was stunned, got up and paced back and forth in the silver secret room for a few times, then sat down again, pondering the meditation thoughts of the third-order wizard again, wanting to see what other characteristics the third-order wizard has.
However, there are not many descriptions about the third-level wizard in the meditation method, and more about how to advance to the third level.
In addition, there are some precautions.
"You must be in a quiet room when you break through, otherwise you will be affected by filthy ravings, and the probability of failure will be greatly increased. Even if you succeed in breaking through by luck, there will be hidden hidden dangers."
After reading it, Colin noticed that this note was specially bolded and emphasized. It was at the end and it was the latest addition. It was followed by the year of addition—2369 in the Aramaic calendar.
This note exists in the two meditation methods, and they are also emphasized in bold... It should be uniformly marked by the Supreme Council.
In fact, on these two crystals that record meditation methods, the dates of their last updates are also recorded.
The idea of Xi Shengming is in the year 2488 of the Yanamic calendar, and the method of Huoqiya meditation is in the year 2369 of the Yanamic calendar-it is estimated that the note was updated in that year.
'Dirty raving can also affect advanced third-level wizards? '
It seems that I still underestimated the influence of dirty ravings on wizards... Colin put away the crystal, and felt that the situation of wizards was not optimistic.
All along, he has not had a deep understanding of filthy raving...mainly since his apprenticeship until now, he has basically not been affected by filthy raving.
But ordinary wizards are not like this. Generally speaking, even wizards from pure-blooded families will more or less suffer from accidents caused by filthy raving.
Not to mention the half-blood wizard, the law enforcement team handles the most cases of half-blood wizard alienation and out-of-control cases every year.
And this kind of influence will not disappear with the growth of cultivation... Noyes also said in the morning that even as a fourth-level wizard, he would occasionally hear some inexplicable ravings.
Colin frowned and thought carefully for a moment, then suddenly realized that he seemed to have never heard any inexplicable ravings.
There are reasons for the ravings that I sometimes hear.
‘My own resistance to filthy raving seems to be exceptionally high? '
…
Colin continued to stay in the Castle of the True Knowledge Society for two days. On the morning of the third day, Noyce sent someone to call him to the parliament hall.
Pushing open the study door, Noyce was standing by the window waiting.
"Good morning, Mr. Noyce."
"Good morning, Colin." Noyce turned his head and smiled, and said, "The time for the awarding ceremony has been confirmed, and it will be at noon two days later."
"I called you here this time. Apart from telling you the time of the emblem awarding ceremony, I also have some precautions to tell you."
Colin nodded, Noyce patted his shoulder and continued:
"In addition to enjoying various benefits, the supreme councilors also have corresponding obligations, especially during the current war, the councilors need to unconditionally obey the orders of the parliament, and most of them have gone to the frontline battlefield."
"But the good news is that, according to my suggestion, you who are only a second-tier wizard will not go to the frontline battlefield for the time being."
"Thank you, Your Excellency Noyce."
"You're welcome, practice hard, and don't waste the time I bought for you is the best thanks." Noyce smiled, and behind the understatement was the continuous mediation of the past two days.
Colin is not a fool, so he naturally understands that Noyce must have spent a lot of effort to obtain such unique treatment for him.
Silently keeping it in mind, Colin continued to listen to Noyce.
"However, there is one thing you still need to face."
"The Supreme Council is an institution that manages all wizards. As members of it, we all need to undertake certain management obligations.
So at the emblem awarding ceremony two days later, you will be assigned to manage an area. "
Speaking of this, Noyster paused, "This may be a trouble for you."
"Although you are still a Tier 2 wizard, the management area is also counted as a Tier 3 wizard, and you cannot choose freely. At that time, it will be decided by voting on the day of the emblem awarding ceremony, and I, as the recommender, cannot participate in the vote. "
Noyce looked at Colin, "Besides, because of your origin, there are indeed many people in the Supreme Council who hold some bad attitudes towards you.
With me here, they won't really do anything to you, but they may cause you some trouble in some aspects, such as the management area. "
"If it's a method that conforms to the rules, such as assigning you a place that is difficult to manage, I can't stand up for you. You have to rely on yourself, understand?"
"Understood." Colin nodded.
Noyce walked to the window: "But if you can manage it well, then this is one of the biggest advantages of being a councilor. Because you are the area where there are no special orders and you do not violate the rules set by the council. The supreme ruler of the city... Just like me as the lord of the city of Neustadt, I can get many benefits from it."
"Yes." Colin nodded again.
"No matter what, let's grow up as soon as possible." Noyce patted him on the shoulder again, walked back to the desk, and asked while sitting down: "How long do you think it will take to advance to the third-level wizard?"
"It should be within a few days."
Just these few days?
Noyce was taken aback, then raised his head.
"Your Excellency Noyce, I actually want to ask you some questions about advancement." Colin ignored the surprise on Noyce's face and continued to ask.
He doesn't want to continue to hide his strength.
"...You said." Noyston said after a moment.
"What is a quiet room?"
"The quiet room uses special means to reduce the concentration of filthy ravings to almost zero. It is usually located in a bustling street. It is mainly used for wizards to break through the third level, and to protect the fragile souls that are leaving the body for the first time from the influence of filthy ravings."
Noyce explained.
The concept of a quiet room is not unfamiliar to wizards from pure-blooded families. The best of them, in fact, used the quiet room as early as when they advanced to advanced apprentices, so as to ensure that they would not be affected by filthy babbling and avoid acquired evil. Talent deterioration.
However, Colin in front of him is not of pure blood, and his understanding of this aspect is obviously very lacking.
Noyce thought for a while, and simply continued to explain:
"The most critical point for an advanced third-level wizard is to leave the body of the soul."
"Only when the soul has escaped from the shackles of the body can it truly contact the ubiquitous magic energy in the world, and only then can it get rid of the upper limit of the body's magic power, mobilize the magic power around it, and use witchcraft with far more power than before.
At that time, what restricts wizards from using witchcraft is no longer the upper limit of magic power, but the upper limit of spiritual power. "
"I see." Colin immediately understood, and thanked Noyce in front of him.
Although it was only a few words, Noyce had already pointed out the biggest difference between the third-tier wizards and the second-tier wizards, which made him understand the essence of the third-tier wizards much more clearly.
"If you want to advance to the third-level wizard, you must use the quiet room. The process of soul leaving the body is very dangerous, especially the first time the soul leaves the body. At that time, the soul is the most fragile and most susceptible to the influence of dirty ravings."
"When the soul gradually adapts later, the situation will be much better, but every time you leave the body, you need to be extra cautious and use specific means for protection." Noyes continued to warn.
"Does the soul need to leave the body every time a witchcraft is cast?"
"No, it depends on when you can find the feeling of mobilizing the surrounding magic energy. As long as you find the feeling of mobilizing the surrounding magic energy, you can cast powerful witchcraft without leaving the body."
"Well, there is another special situation, that is, the Caesar you met. He must have used some kind of secret technique of the gods to dare to come in the form of a pure soul body. It is precisely because of this that he can escape the council's prosecution. High-level wizard monitoring." Noyce added.
"If you want to really get rid of the body, you need to reach the fourth level now. In fact, thousands of years ago, the third-level wizards could choose to abandon the body and change the carrier of the soul at will. But not now, even the fourth-level wizards cannot do whatever they want like before. Changing the body... You will know the details when you reach the fourth level, so I won't go into details."
"Okay." Colin nodded and thanked Noyce again.
"You're welcome. If you have any questions about cultivation, you can come to me." Noyce continued, and then threw a metal nameplate at him.
"With it, you can use the quiet room on the second floor of the auditorium at any time, and return it to me after you break through the third level."
Colin did not delay, thanked Noyce again, asked a few more questions about cultivation, and left.
