Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 687
Chapter 679 Advancement Ceremony
“In a blink of an eye, Brother Thor is about to advance to the third level!”
Silver butterflies danced around.
But Penny’s chattering mouth sometimes doesn’t match its elegant dancing posture and elf-like appearance.
“I still remember the first time I saw Brother Thor, he was still a first-level apprentice. At that time, I thought that the dream of this little wizard looked so special, I really wanted to eat him up!”
Thor laughed and said, “Fortunately, you didn’t act rashly at that time. At that time, I might not have the power to rescue you from the dream… Wait, so you have recovered your previous memory a long time ago, right?”
“Ah? Hahahaha…” Penny started to play dumb.
It landed on the edge of the round platform of the wizard tower and looked ahead.
Outside the Rhine City – the name Thor casually gave to his own settlement – there are hundreds of low-level wizards busy.
Some of these hundreds of wizards were sent by Herbert and Pearl, but more came from the Star Gate Council of Iskeper.
I have to say that sometimes power is still fascinating. The other party’s transfer order made so many wizards put down all their work and research and come to the dangerous no-man’s land to set up a promotion array for Thor alone.
But Thor just sighed a little and stopped thinking about it.
Anyway, no matter how many people come to set up the promotion array, whether he can successfully withstand the first wave of crisis after opening the door depends on him.
If his own strength is not good, even if he forces someone to go up, he will soon be crushed by the power that follows.
The person who presided over this array is an acquaintance.
Corey, expressionless and wearing a gorgeous blue puffy skirt, stood on a temporary high platform and looked down.
From time to time, she would guide a wizard to improve the work he was doing.
The magic array for promotion to the third level is very complicated, and normally it needs to be presided over by a third-level wizard.
But the Star Gate Council is not convenient to send another third-level wizard in, and Herbert and Pearl will not personally take action except providing resources and being present.
This is also to avoid suspicion.
Therefore, this difficult task finally fell on Corey, who is currently the closest to the third level.
As the protagonist, Thor only needs to check it himself after the promotion array is set up.
At other times, he needs to keep himself in perfect condition and full of energy.
At this time, Thor saw Corey looking up at him.
He raised his hand and greeted him, and the other party nodded slightly, and then went back to work.
“Brother Thor, this little witch is not bad, like a cute doll, do you like her?”
Penny started to be naughty again.
“I like you more.” Thor put an end to Penny’s teasing with one sentence.
There were footsteps behind him, and he turned around to see Byron climbing the last step to the top of the tower.
“When is the promotion ceremony scheduled?” Byron asked.
“If nothing goes wrong, it will be in five days.” For some reason, Thor always felt a little uneasy when he saw his senior, but after thinking about it, he couldn’t figure out where the uneasiness came from.
“I haven’t asked you for a long time, how is your inerting experiment going, Senior Byron?”
Byron thought for a moment and replied, “Small-scale inerting can already be done in the laboratory. But once the amount is increased, the original experiment will not be effective. It should be that after the amount of inerting is increased, the energy required will increase exponentially. At present, there is no suitable consumable energy that can provide the corresponding energy in a short time.” At this
point, he paused for a moment, “Well, there is not yet, but I will continue to look for suitable materials and conduct experiments.”
Sol also knew that the time consumed by such experiments is often measured in years. It is already very good to be able to complete small-scale purification now.
Like last time, he inerted the polluted energy near the eye of the storm for a short time to create an escape opportunity for Kismet, using the method provided by Byron.
It’s just that Kismet is a disappointing kid. He was given a chance, but he actually used it to be in a daze?
After complaining about Kismet, Sol came back to his senses and gave Byron a small suggestion.
“Senior, actually, there are differences between small-scale experiments in the laboratory and large-scale experiments in actual application scenarios. For example, if we do not pursue the complete purification of pollution, but strive to reduce the pollution to a level that the wizard’s body can withstand, it can be regarded as completing the inerting process.”
Byron’s eyes lit up, “Good idea. I was too perfectionist before. According to your ideas, I now have a way to complete large-scale inerting. However, this method is one-time, and we still have to continue to look for other suitable energy supply materials.”
Thor was about to ask what kind of disposable material was so powerful when he felt a strong mental fluctuation coming from behind him.
He looked back and saw that it was Pei’er, whom he had not seen for a long time, coming with the wind.
This time, she still did not land on the wizard tower, but landed beside Corey.
But after landing, she nodded gently in the direction of the wizard tower.
It was as if she was telling Thor that she would wait for him with such an action.
…
The wind demon, who did not need to participate, added another inspection of the magic circle before Thor checked it.
Her actions showed that she attached great importance to this promotion ceremony.
It was just a little strange to outsiders. Pei’er came to help Thor check the magic circle, but the two never spoke, and the distance between them was not less than ten meters.
However, the strange relationship between the two did not affect the progress of the promotion ceremony.
Five days later, Herbert brought a dozen wizards to the Rhine Lake again.
At this time, Thor had also completed three rounds of inspections on the magic circle.
Although Corey was once Thor’s competitor, she had always been dedicated to the arrangement of the magic circle without any water.
Of course, in return, she also got all the knowledge points of this promotion auxiliary magic circle.
However, this array requires a lot of resources. If it weren’t for the supply of the giant Stargate Council, it would take many years for ordinary wizards to accumulate such resources.
The ceremony is about to begin.
Thor took off from the Pure Spirit Wizard Tower on Diudiu, crossed the Rhine Lake, and landed in the center of the giant array.
The diameter of this array is 100 meters. Almost every basic structure and every witchcraft rune is arranged with corresponding witchcraft materials.
The entire array is one meter below the ground, and the excavated sand is processed into pillars, which become the energy supply point of the entire array.
Each pillar is engraved with the pattern of the array and inlaid with a large number of magic crystals.
Looking at such a gorgeous true appearance, if Thor didn’t know that this was a witchcraft array prepared for himself, he would have wanted to sneak away some resources.
There were many people around the array.
These people included wizards and apprentices who settled in the Rhine Lake settlement, hundreds of wizards who came to help build advanced arrays, and Thor’s “friends” – Gaga Drum and Brando also came.
Including Senior Byron, they all stood together with the consciousnesses.
The promotion to the third level may not be seen once in a hundred years.
Although these people are just watching, they may also comprehend certain knowledge from it, which will help them improve their own strength.
Therefore, anyone who has a relationship with Thor and has worked in the magic circle chooses to stay and watch.
Corey was still standing on the high platform where she once presided over the arrangement of the magic circle.
She looked at Thor and finally couldn’t help showing a trace of envy.
But when she spoke, the complex emotions in her heart had disappeared.
“Thor, we will start the magic circle from the outside. When all the energy towers are lit, you can receive the magic power transmitted by the entire magic circle.”
Thor nodded. They had already reviewed the process of operating the magic circle several times, but Thor was not impatient in the face of Corey’s reminder again.
The energy towers are the pillars in the magic circle. These pillars will gather the power of the entire wizard tower and transmit it to Thor in the middle.
And Thor needs to control these powers and completely open the door in his body for him.
There was silence all around.
Even Pearl and Herbert stared at Thor without blinking.
“Begin!”
