Chapter 51 Preparation
Mentor Moses gave Thain an extra six months of leave, allowing Thain to meditate on his mental power and accumulate magic power during this time.
Thain did not rush to learn any new knowledge during this period, because judging from the instructor's attitude, the time and situation were both urgent.
Just half a year was not enough for Thain to make any outstanding progress in any magic.
On the contrary, improving some mental power and magic power as much as possible is the fastest way to increase strength.
It was also during this half-year that Thain discovered that the college’s public courses had been suspended.
Low-level apprentices and entry-level apprentices can only obtain limited knowledge through public libraries.
But how many academy points can entry-level apprentices and low-level apprentices spend squandering?
Knowing that changes are coming in half a year, these entry-level apprentices and low-level apprentices with low strength may have been directly abandoned by the official black magicians of the academy.
Indeed, if you want to help the academy place the "coordinate generator" in an alien plane where the situation is unknown, as your mentor Mosheduo said.
It is estimated that at least senior apprentices and quasi-magicians have this ability.
Even mid-level apprentices like Thain will probably be cannon fodder by then, not to mention those little guys with even lower abilities.
It was also during this six months that Thane and Lina had many exchanges about alien planes.
No need for Thain to say it himself, Lina had already learned the relevant information from her mentor Ferena in advance.
But after all, Lina still didn't know as much as Thane.
For example, her mentor Felena didn't talk to her about the "coordinate generator" and the hidden threats from the surface. She just told her that in half a year the college would launch an exploration of an alien plane behind a space-time rift.
Except for Lina, Thane thought about it briefly and finally decided to reveal the information in advance to his two close friends-Meili and Baos.
As expected, Fatty Boss didn't know anything about it, and was shocked when he learned the news from Thain.
Even though he simply learned the news half a year in advance, this time difference was enough for Fatty Boss to reach the forefront of most low-level apprentices.
If there is any crisis in the future, he will have a higher survival rate.
What surprised Thain a little was that there was an official black man
Merry, with the magician Dils as her mentor, had no idea what was about to happen half a year later!
It can be seen that the importance Master Diers attaches to Meili is far less than the investment of mentor Moses in Thain.
Including the old witch Felena, who seemed to keep away from strangers, at least told Lina some relevant information, unlike Diers who completely hid it from her apprentice.
Of course, it is also possible that Meili's strength is too low, and she is just a low-level apprentice. I am afraid that she will be more cannon fodder than Thane.
Meili is not the only pharmacy apprentice under Master Diers.
Even if it's a loss, this femme fatale probably won't have any heartache.
Half a year was spent in this tense and weird college atmosphere.
Although only a handful of middle and high-level apprentices, including Thain and Lina, knew about it at first, as time went by, some scattered news and rumors gradually spread throughout the entire academy.
Although there was no panic, a tense atmosphere permeated the entire academy.
All the apprentices are working hard to increase their strength or find ways to increase their chances of survival.
It was also under this circumstance that the threshold of Bose's magic shop was almost broken.
Including Meili, she also received a large number of pharmaceutical orders from low-level and mid-level apprentices.
Because of the news informed by Thain in advance, Fatty Boss used his private money to hoard a large amount of things during this period.
Before the crisis could come, Fatty Bose finally chose to risk his life instead of money.
Fatty Bose has not used almost all low-level magic materials or potions that can be used in the past six months.
Instead, leave them behind or give them to Merry and Thain who can better utilize the value of those magic materials.
The fat man even found a good-looking intermediate magic item from nowhere, which can provide an intermediate magic - a cloak of wind spell, which greatly enhances his life-saving ability.
Meili's decisions over the past six months were somewhat beyond Thain's expectations.
In addition to cramming and learning the enhanced secondary fireball technique from Thain for a period of time, she still focused more on preparing potions.
Several years have passed, and although Meili's apprenticeship level is still at the low level, her talent in the field of pharmacy is truly outstanding.
Also difficult
During his low-level apprenticeship, Wei Hui was spotted by the official black magician Dils.
Meili was able to make the intermediate recovery potion a year ago, and for the same level of magic potion, Meili has learned to master the intermediate antidote and vitality potion this year.
Needless to say, the intermediate antidote is a rare potion that can help magic apprentices revive their spirits and improve their meditation efficiency.
Sometimes after staying up for a whole day and night in experimental research, when the spirit is extremely exhausted, taking an energizing potion can restore the sluggish spirit.
However, compared to restoring their mental energy, Thain and most of the magic apprentices value more the vitality potion's ability to improve part of the meditation efficiency and even speed up the recovery of mental power.
By then, with the dual recovery blessing of vitality potion and strong acid cane, even if Sean is only a mid-level apprentice, the durability of magic release is enough to match that of ordinary high-level apprentices.
Of course, these potions made by Meili did not flow into the hands of others.
Sean, Lina, Bose, and Meili have formed a relatively stable small cooperative group.
Among them, Lina is the strongest, and Bose and Meili also have their own roles.
As for Sean, with the help of the vitality potion provided by Meili, he has been meditating intensively for several months.
In the last two months, he worked hard and made a total of three pieces of good-looking equipment, which are also the highest quality equipment he has made so far.
A string of black stone necklaces can speed up the guiding and gathering of some dark elemental forces of the user. This is a magic prop that Sean made for Lina, which is a small top-grade among low-level magic props.
With Lina's strength, equipment with some low-level offensive magic engraved in it will not have much improvement effect on her at all.
On the contrary, this functional black stone necklace is more useful to Lina than ordinary intermediate magic props.
A pair of anklets engraved with low-level magic - light body magic, is the equipment that Sean made for Fatty Boss.
Originally, Sean wanted to make an offensive magic equipment for Fatty, but Fatty knew that even if he added an offensive magic, it would not help his overall strength and survival rate.
It is better to make a life-saving prop to match his cloak to improve his escape ability.
A corrosive cane is the highest quality magic equipment made by Sean in the past two months. He gave it to Meili, who provided him with many potions and whose own strength was relatively weak.
