Chapter 95 Advanced Swimming Techniques, Learning Hunting
Dora also reminded him, "By the way, Junior Brother Lin Wei, you're now a third-class wizard apprentice. Remember to collect your robes. Third-class wizard apprentices wear gray ones."
"According to the regulations of the Wizarding Council, once you become a third-class wizard apprentice, you have to start contributing to the wizarding community as a whole. That means you have to pay sea creature flesh and blood. However, for safety reasons, there is a six-month grace period. During these six months, you need to hurry up. You will have to go out to hunt sea creatures once a month and pay the full amount of sea creature flesh and blood." The speaker crossed his arms and looked serious.
"I understand, thank you for letting me know." Lin Wei nodded slightly, his eyes showing seriousness.
He had dealt with sea creatures before, and was quite confident in handling ordinary ones. At that moment, a cold wind howled outside the window, making the window rattle loudly.
For the next month, Lin Wei went to class during the day and returned to his courtyard at night to practice meditation and breathing techniques, patiently waiting for the gray face of the Rubik's Cube to be unlocked. The courtyard was quiet, with only the occasional sound of Lin Wei turning the pages of a book.
After finishing a meditation session, Lin Wei let out a long sigh and began to summarize: "I need to absorb 100 water element factors to become a second-class wizard apprentice, and 1000 to become a first-class wizard apprentice. I have only absorbed 7 so far. There is still a long way to go." He frowned and tapped his fingers lightly on the table as he spoke.
"It's amazing, but I can now unleash extremely simple water-based attacks, the kind that have no offensive power, not even witchcraft." Lin Wei's lips curled up slightly, tinged with pride.
Lin Wei took out the basic wand he had obtained from the Turing Market, gently stroking it and communicating with the elemental factors in his mind. Soon, a thin stream of water sprayed from the tip of the wand, lasting for several seconds. The water droplets splashed onto the ground, making a soft sound.
At the same time, the water element factor in Lin Wei's mind dimmed, depleting its stored energy. Lin Wei stared at the tip of the wand, his eyes filled with exhaustion.
"These seven water element factors are permanent and will slowly regenerate under normal circumstances. The water element density in the courtyard I'm in now is much higher than outside, so it replenishes very quickly. This is the benefit of having a wizard organization; the water element factors are more concentrated during cultivation, and they are replenished quickly after being consumed." Lin Wei said, pacing back and forth in the house.
"As for the radiation value mentioned earlier, it is positively correlated with the number of elemental factors used. The more that are consumed, the greater the power. At the same time, the wizard's brain capacity is also limited. Only after breaking through can it accommodate more elemental factors, which means improving mental power. In short, it is a closed loop." Lin Wei spread his hands, making a helpless gesture.
These days, Lin Wei has begun to gradually integrate some basic wizarding knowledge. He sat at his desk, which was piled high with books and notes.
"It's just that my breathing technique training has fallen behind. I estimate that I'll only be able to break through to the sixth level of the Blue Flagfish Breathing Technique in five months. I'll have to put the Yellow Rose Breathing Technique on hold for now." Lin Wei shook his head helplessly and sighed.
Five months passed quickly. The wizarding world also has spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and winter has arrived again, not much different from the human world. Snowflakes fluttered outside the window, and the whole world was covered in silver.
"It must be the Frost's Breath Festival in the human world by now. I'm 42 years old this year." Lin Wei chuckled self-deprecatingly, his eyes filled with emotion.
[Blue Flagfish Breathing Technique +22, after being tripled by Deep Blue Surface, Experience Points +66]
[Blue Flagfish Breathing Technique: Tier 5 → Tier 6 (Maximum), Effect: Advanced Swimming Technique, Maximum Requirement (1/3)]
[Advanced Swimming Skills: You are an excellent swimmer, able to control your direction and breathing in rapids and large waves, and are skilled in deep diving and holding your breath for extended periods.]
"The Blue Flagfish Breathing Technique has also reached the sixth level, and it has been improved to the level of advanced swimming technique. It can greatly improve the ability to protect oneself in the endless sea." Lin Wei's eyes lit up, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Although Lin Wei had never been in the sea, he had heard from Dora that even formal wizards wouldn't easily jump into the sea, so he immediately dismissed the idea. He sat on the edge of the bed, resting his chin on his hands.
"A formal wizard could easily crush me, but if even such beings don't dare jump into the sea, I shouldn't be so reckless. I'll just pretend this advanced swimming skill doesn't exist for now. Those who drown are the ones who can swim," Lin Wei repeatedly warned himself, his expression serious.
"Next, we'll go out to hunt sea creatures. We'll have to learn this from scratch. We started compiling the list of instructors last week." Lin Wei clenched his fist, his eyes filled with determination.
Wizards are very busy these days. Apart from occasionally seeing Senior Sister Dora, Lin Wei doesn't know anyone else. They only greet each other occasionally during class. Otherwise, everyone is busy with their own things, and the points in the tower have been exhausted. The room is a bit messy, but Lin Wei doesn't have time to tidy it up.
Before long, Lin Wei arrived at a training site at sea. It was an outlet to the sea, with more than a dozen boats of varying sizes moving about. The sea was surging with waves, and the boats swayed with the waves.
There were many wizarding apprentices coming and going on the shore, most of them too tired to walk. They were either riding on broomsticks or directing horses to take them back to the courtyard of Turing Tower. The apprentices were all listless, dragging their heavy steps.
Lin Wei found the teaching location, a small boat about ten meters long. He climbed the gangway onto the boat, his steps somewhat hurried.
"Lin Wei, third-class wizard apprentice, are you here yet?" A middle-aged man wearing a first-class wizard apprentice robe was reading from the registration form. He frowned and scanned the crowd.
"Coming, teacher."
Lin Wei said with a smile.
According to the unwritten rules of the wizarding world, anyone who teaches can be called a teacher.
"Hmm, you're the only one missing. Are you new here? My name is Kaiya." The middle-aged man nodded, his gaze falling on Lin Wei.
"Yes, I'm a new student who joined the organization six months ago," Lin Wei nodded respectfully.
"Becoming a third-class wizard apprentice in half a year, not bad at all," a wizard apprentice on the ship said, resting his chin on his hand, a slight smirk playing on his lips.
Lin Wei rolled his eyes at him, too lazy to bother with him. This guy didn't even know him but was already trying to taunt him. He straightened his back, his eyes filled with disdain.
He only spent a week to become a third-class wizard apprentice. He now has 41 water element factors in his mind, which is much closer to becoming a second-class wizard apprentice with 100.
Lin Wei secretly felt smug, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
There were still quite a few wizard apprentices on board, about seven or eight in total. Most of them looked over with curiosity, but didn't say much. Some leaned against the ship's railing, while others sat on the deck, their eyes filled with anticipation.
