Headshot Wizard - Chapter 95

Chapter 95 Advanced Direction

The direction of an apprentice wizard is closely related to his future advancement. The ocean of witchcraft is endless, but human energy and time are limited. Although curious wizards are always eager to learn as much knowledge as possible and master as many spells as possible, in fact, no one can achieve full development.

The so-called Almighty Wizard is just a joke.

After all, omnipotence, to a certain extent, means omnipotence.

Therefore, the threshold of the second-level wizard has become a watershed. When the wizard apprentices converge their magic power and create a magic pool, what they get is not only the transformation of the body and magic, but also opens a more specialized path. They will continue to research and work tirelessly in the direction of advancement that they have previously determined.

Each advanced direction is the result of the painstaking effort of countless predecessors in the wizarding world. On the wizarding road, knowledge and talent are equally important.

Although Scarlet Castle is known for its rich blood wizards, it is after all one of the three large wizarding organizations in Ferendor. There are more than 20 advanced directions for wizards to choose from-but the most popular advanced directions In fact, there are just a few. Choosing a popular advanced direction means that you may avoid a lot of detours. After all, many instructors are studying in these directions. It is better to have a instructor to guide you than to blindly explore.

As for those unpopular classifications, some only have two or three second-level wizards as instructors, and some even the entire Ferendor cannot find a wizard who has studied the same profession. Under such circumstances, the spiritual path of apprentice wizards is destined to be more bumpy than others.

…

A thick pile of materials lay in front of Lance. These materials were given to him by Fagan for free, and they covered almost all the advanced directions of Scarlet Castle.

The more popular the advanced direction, the more complete the information. For example, the advanced direction of [Blood Mage] has more than 100 pages of information for Lance to refer to; and the less popular majors, the information is scarce, such as Lance had encountered Wesley in Puppet City before, and he chose the [Forbidden Magic Mage] to advance direction. Lance had almost only a general description in his hand, and he didn’t even have the specific steps to advance it!

“Wizard apprentices like Wesley probably got the advanced method of Forbidden Magic Mage from the family behind.” Lance read these materials and couldn’t help guessing in his heart: “Otherwise, based on the materials given by Scarlet Castle, The advanced Forbidden Magic Mage needs to learn the basic knowledge and can’t tell how it is possible to complete all the preparations.”

Lance didn’t even think about an advanced direction that was unpopular to such a degree. He is not Wesley, and there is not enough power and financial support behind him, so he can only choose a relatively mature and complete major.

But Lance was not particularly interested in the popular majors in Scarlet Castle.

Taking the most popular blood mage as an example, Lance learned that if you want to advance to the blood mage, you must prepare for the apprenticeship as follows——

The first stage is the learning of reserve knowledge. (Required)

Advanced blood mage, you need to learn [Blood Purification and Separation (Early Stage)], [Anatomy (Intermediate)], [Introduction to Vampires and Blood Creatures (Simplified Version)], [Sacrifice and Sacrifice Feedback], [Liquid Characteristics Expert Essence], [Ferrandor Celebrity Biography-Blood Mage Volume], [King Rituals] and other related knowledge. And the assessment rating reaches above B-.

The second stage is the transformation of the body. (Required)

The transformation part of the body includes two parts: the enlargement of the heart and the toughening of the blood vessels. At this stage, the apprentices must take some special medicinal materials and medicaments to transform their bodies, so that their bodies can reach a certain degree of toughness, so that they can withstand the powerful backlash power of the blood spell. You need a stronger heart than ordinary people and some strong blood vessels like steel pipes, so as to ensure that your body will not be injured or even disabled by the boiling blood when you cast the spell.

The third stage is the fusion of ancient blood. (Optional)

The fusion of some ancient bloodlines will produce an immeasurable increase in the spell ability of the blood mage. In particular, the bloodlines of creatures such as vampires, ancient fog dragons, and snow mountain banshees can greatly improve the combat ability of the blood mage.

For the above three stages, as long as the first two stages are prepared, the blood mage’s general preparations are completed. Once the magic power exceeds 100 points, it can condense the magic pool, break through to the second-level wizard, and become a genuine blood wizard.

…

Objectively speaking, blood mage is the most popular profession in Scarlet Castle, and it is not without reason. The combat ability of this professional is very powerful, even after the magic power is exhausted, it can still use the blood in the body to perform some strange secret techniques, which makes people unpredictable. And in the inheritance of many years, the blood mage has already formed a very complete and mature system. At least choose this direction, and you won’t worry about not learning advanced knowledge in the future.

But unfortunately, Lance has a natural aversion to blood mage.

Not only that, but another popular profession in the castle-Necromancer, is not in Lance’s consideration.

As a visitor from the earth with fairly strong nerves, Lance felt that letting himself kill and dissect people could barely be done. However, the use of blood and corpses as the objects of spell study, and accompanying them for countless days and nights in the future, made him a little unacceptable.

Moreover, withdrawing his own blood as a magic medium, this characteristic also made Lance a little uncomfortable.

“I would rather learn the law of witchcraft or elemental spells than learning blood spells.” Lance was a little emotional, after all, in terms of attack power, Rainbow Island’s law of witchcraft and elemental spells are no better than blood spells. What a difference. It’s a pity that this is Scarlet Castle, not Rainbow Island.

In the castle, there are only a handful of three advanced directions regarding elements and laws: [Pyromancer], [Sorcerer of Star Law], and [Mage of Four Rings]. These three categories are all very unpopular, especially the four-ring mage who learns the four elemental spells at the same time, and there is not even a mentor in the huge Scarlet Castle!

Lance felt a little depressed when he thought of this.

Excluding the popular categories and the popular categories, there are only some advanced categories that seem commonplace. Most of these categories are mediocre. Nine out of ten people choose these categories because these categories only need to learn a small amount of knowledge-which means lower advanced costs. After all, you want to learn spells and knowledge in the castle. All need a lot of magic stones and resource points.

“These advanced categories have weak combat abilities. If you plan to stay in the castle for the rest of your life, you can barely accept it.”

Obviously, Lance didn’t plan to stay in Scarlet Castle forever. As a traverser, he has his own ambitions.

“Which direction should I choose?” Lance turned the information page by page.

He turned over half of the data to the other side. At this moment, an old yellowed data suddenly flashed across the white data page.

“Huh? This advanced classification seems a bit interesting…”

Lance’s eyes lit up and he pulled the parchment out of the pile of documents.

…

Scarlet Castle, the second floor hall of the Apprentice Management Center.

“New self-financed student? Fill out the form on the side.” A girl with short red hair simply threw out a form. At the same time remind Lance: “Use your nameplate, it will be faster.”

Lance nodded. He spread the form flat on the counter, and then printed his nameplate on the upper right corner of the form.

A cyan light flashed, and a few lines of information about Lance were automatically filled in on the form.

At the bottom of the form, there are still a few blank spaces that he needs to fill out by himself.

He held the quill on the counter, dipped in some ink, and quickly wrote down the information.

“Here.” Lance handed over the form.

The girl took the form and said to herself: “Lance Lane? There are very few new students joining this season. Let me see what advancement direction you plan to choose…”

The red-haired girl looked down, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes, but she still read the entire form, and then scribbled a voucher. After sealing it, she handed it to Lance: “Three days later, Until two weeks, you can come to me to choose your tutor… Take this voucher and go to the administrator on the first floor, and he will give you the standard outfit for self-financed students.”

Lance thanked the girl and turned to leave.

The girl looked at Lance’s back with some playfulness, and murmured, “What a weird one…this category has been a long time no one has chosen, right?”

The girl smiled to herself, glanced at the advanced direction on the form again.

I saw such a phrase written impressively on the white paper——

【Magnetic Storm Master】.
