Chapter 127: Capture

"Not bad, he recovered quickly."

Seeing Enzo's face gradually turning rosy, Gustav nodded slightly and said, "Eating more Siggs centipedes can gradually make your body resistant to toxins, which is very important for a wizard."

"I understand, mentor." Enzo nodded heavily.

"The physical problem is solved, then the next step is to improve the strength." Gustav stroked his chin, his eyes flashed with thought, and after a moment, he raised a finger.

call out!

A ray of light shot out from the fingertips and hit Enzo's forehead, forming a rune.

"This feeling." Enzo's expression changed again. The invisible gravity hit him like a mountain, causing his back to bend instantly and his legs to bend to the knees suddenly, as if he was about to kneel down in the next moment.

"Yeah!" With a low growl, Enzo gritted his teeth and tensed his muscles to barely stabilize his body.

"Huh? Not bad." A trace of surprise flashed in Gustav's eyes, and he praised, "With your 2.9 strength, it's not easy to still stand under the suppression of the gravity rune."

"Mentor." Enzo's face turned pale and he had difficulty breathing.

"Be patient, this is for your own good." Gustav shook his head and explained, "Withstanding the pressure of the gravity rune, you can exercise your strength. Your strength will only increase after you adapt."

Enzo smiled bitterly and nodded helplessly.

Gustave made a training plan for Enzo. The first thing was to improve his strength and physique. This teaching method was not common in the academy. For most instructors, they paid more attention to the cultivation of the disciple's spirit. After all, that was the key to success. The key to becoming an official wizard.

For the next three months, Enzo reported to the White Tower every day.

Although Gustav was a conqueror wizard who was not good at teaching, he was very responsible for Enzo's training. In addition to the jar of Siggs centipedes, he also devoted a lot of resources to make Enzo's physical condition improve in a short period of time. Significantly improved within.

This day, morning.

In the White Tower Laboratory, Enzo casually threw a Sigis centipede into his mouth, chewed it crunchily, and felt the juice exploding in his mouth, but his expression did not change much.

"Chip, check my data." Enzo ordered in his mind.

"Ding! Enzo/Strength: 4.1/Physique 4.2/Spirit: 5.0/Status: Good."

"Why is your physique still 4.2?" A mechanical voice sounded in his head, but Enzo frowned and sighed slightly, "I have eaten too many poisons during this period. It seems that my body has developed resistance."

Gustav's three months of resource cultivation greatly improved Enzo's physical data.

Not only has his strength and physique reached 4+, but his spirit has also broken through a bit. Unfortunately, Enzo's body has developed resistance due to the large amount of resources poured into it, and now eating the Sigus Centipede has no effect.

At this time, Gustav came from a distance.

"Mentor." Enzo stood up and saluted.

"You are still so punctual, Enzo." The time was not yet 9 o'clock, Gustave chuckled and asked, "How are you, how are you doing today?"

"I'm afraid nothing has changed." Enzo shook his head and said with a wry smile: "My body seems to have developed resistance to the basic toxins, and I don't even feel anything after swallowing a Sigis centipede."

"Is that so? It's normal." Gustav nodded slightly, stroking his chin and said, "After long-term consumption of poisonous substances, the body will naturally develop resistance, but in the past three months, your physical fitness should have improved a lot. , you can proceed to the next step of practice.”

"Next step to practice?" Enzo raised his head.

Gustav thought for a moment and said, "Well, there happened to be an experimental subject in the White Tower that escaped into the misty forest recently. You go and catch it back, whether it's dead or alive."

"The experimental subject escaped?" Enzo was a little surprised.

The interior of the White Tower is filled with various rune traps. Without Gustav's authorization, it would be difficult for even a formal wizard to get in and out. How could an experimental subject escape?

"It doesn't count as an escape." Gustav shook his head and explained, "It is a snake claw from another world. The combat power of its adult body is comparable to that of a third-level apprentice. In the previous experiment, I removed it. Some of its organs were removed, and it was deliberately released in order to test some conjectures.”

Enzo suddenly felt enlightened and nodded.

"Go and bring it back." Gustav said, "Your physical data have improved a lot during this period, but you still need some actual combat to convert the data into combat effectiveness."

"Where should I find that snakeclaw?" Enzo asked.

"Misty Forest!" Gustav raised an arm, with a drop of blood condensed in his palm, and said, "I left a mark on the body of the Snake Claw. Based on this breath, you will find it."

Enzo's heart moved, and he used the chip to record the breath of the blood of the Snakeclaw clan.

Then, he said goodbye to Gustave. After leaving the White Tower, he did not rush to the misty forest. Instead, he went back to his residence to tidy up and put a few potions in his arms just in case.

Enzo left the academy after everything was ready.

"Chip, search for target location." At the edge of the misty forest, Enzo turned on the chip's search function. A light blue luster appeared in his eyes, and countless fine network cables were connected in series, intertwined to form a field of vision.

"Have you escaped this far?"

Enzo frowned slightly. In his vision map, there was a red dot representing the target, located in the Misty Forest, a place called the Skinning Forest.

"Chip, search for information about the Snake Claw Clan."

Stepping towards the direction of the red dot, Enzo searched for information about the Snake Claw Clan in his mind. Although the Snake Claw Clan that escaped from the White Tower was just an experimental subject with organs removed, he still remained cautious.

Stepping into the Misty Forest, Enzo walked forward carefully.

Different from the safe environment inside the academy, the Misty Forest can be regarded as full of dangers. Not to mention the horrors and monsters hidden in the darkness, even some inconspicuous poisonous insects and snakes can be a fatal threat to apprentices.

"Alert! Unknown creatures approaching, threat level to the host: low."

As the mechanical voice sounded in his mind, Enzo's eyes flashed, and the next moment he drew out the short blade at his waist and slashed in the direction of his side.

"Swish!"

A colorful little snake shot up from the bushes nearby, biting Enzo with its winding body in midair, but its head was cut off by a sharp blade.

Snap! The little snake without a head fell to the ground, struggling for a few times before it stopped moving.

"Black Man's Ring Snake." Enzo leaned over and recognized the species of the little snake. This is a venomous snake with a body length of no more than 30 centimeters. Ordinary people will die in a quarter of an hour if bitten.

Grabbing the body of the black man's ring snake, Enzo cut open its abdomen, took out a snake gall and threw it directly into his mouth.

The bitter taste spread in his mouth, but Enzo had no expression on his face. During this period of training in the White Tower, he had become accustomed to eating poisonous things, and he had long been accustomed to the gallbladder of venomous snakes.
