Chapter 22 Victor's Assistant, Peak Knighthood, First Battle
Chapter 22 Victor's Assistant, Peak Knighthood, First Battle
Two days later.
Ian met Victor.
However, it wasn't in the teaching area, but also on Maple Leaf Avenue, but this time it was number 75.
Victor pushed open the door, wearing a dark green tight-fitting short robe on top and straight-leg pants of the same color on the bottom.
"Come in!"
"Good instructor."
Ian nodded and went inside.
Unlike Chris's house, Victor's house had a mild herbal scent as soon as you walked in.
Various experimental equipment were placed everywhere, and a bookshelf filled with all kinds of books was placed on one side.
Ian's throat moved slightly.
A bookshelf!
Knowledge is precious and expensive, and having such a bookshelf is undoubtedly a display of wealth.
Is this the true value of a pharmacist's job?
Victor assumed Ian was surprised by the vastness of the place and said with a smile, "Once you become a second-class wizard apprentice, you can choose a house here."
Ian's eyes lit up.
So this is where second-class apprentices live. Chris must be a second-class apprentice too.
It must be said that the gap between second-class apprentices and first-class apprentices is truly huge.
The two arrived at the reception room.
On the soft sofa, Victor leaned back, while Ian sat upright.
Before Ian could speak, Victor spoke first, his voice slightly teasing.
"Not bad. There are rumors among the apprentices that I've recently gained your favor and invested a lot of resources in you."
"Sir, I really don't know."
Ian felt a slight chill run down his spine.
Is today a day for accountability?
"Don't worry, after all, this is indeed not a rumor!"
Victor shrugged, looking at Ian with a touch of emotion.
"Ian, you are really talented, but in the upcoming potion practice, talent will be secondary."
Over the next three months, we will be making secondary hemostatic potions, but we will only provide one set of materials each time. To become proficient, you will have to rent a laboratory and buy the potions yourself. The former costs one magic stone per hour, and the latter costs 0.5 magic stones per set. To become proficient, you will need to make at least dozens of preparations.
This will be very difficult for you, you understand?
"I understand, instructor."
Ian frowned.
If you calculate it that way, his magic stones are simply a drop in the ocean.
"What if we buy a set of experimental equipment?"
Ian wants to know more.
"The starting price is thirty magic stones, and for a more complete set, it's at least fifty magic stones." Victor looked at Ian with interest.
Got it!
Let's just rent it.
"However, if you join the Potions Department, the department will have experimental equipment for rent, and the price will be much cheaper than in the laboratory," Victor added.
this......
Ian's lips twitched.
Isn't this the same as saying nothing at all?
But Victor probably invited him not just to put him down.
Sure enough, Victor's voice was calm as he said:
"However, since everyone is saying that I invested in you, it would be embarrassing for me if you performed poorly."
However, as you know, the situation has been very tense lately.
Ian nodded; this was undoubtedly referring to the Blackstone School and the Horton School of Wizardry.
"So the academy needs a lot of potions, and the potions department has been very busy lately. I happen to have been assigned the task of refining a minor hemostatic potion, and we don't have enough assistants. If you'd like, you can be my assistant, but there will be no compensation." Victor looked at Ian with a calm expression.
hiss!
Ian's eyes lit up.
Whether there is any reward or not is completely unimportant!
"Thank you, instructor."
Ian immediately stood up and bowed deeply.
It's no wonder Victor couldn't find an assistant; this can only be described as special treatment for Ian.
Although the assistant doesn't directly configure things, their understanding of the panel can definitely improve their proficiency.
"However, it's not without conditions. You need to be in the top ten in next month's assessment."
"Victor added."
"Understood, thank you for the opportunity!"
Ian thanked him again.
"That's all. I still need to prepare the medicine, so I can't keep you any longer."
Victor stood up and walked towards the laboratory inside.
A maid came in and saw Ian out.
......
After leaving Viktoria.
Ian returned to the house.
Looking at the cramped and confined house before him, and thinking of the house of the second-class wizard apprentice, Ian was filled with motivation once again.
He took off his wizard's robe and started moving on the spot.
His blood and energy surged throughout his body, causing his face to turn slightly red.
Half an hour later, he finished the drill.
"As the Knight Mage advances to Master, the Knight's progress is accelerating, and he should be reaching his limit soon."
Ian pondered.
At this point, the knight's progress has exceeded 90 and is close to reaching 100.
After that, the only option is to advance to the rank of Grand Knight.
"It's just that the Knight Magic doesn't have any runes condensed. I wonder if only Grand Knights can have them."
Ian shook his head.
The Knight's magic was like a magic trick; advancing to the Master level didn't bring any special changes.
"However, with this physical condition and my own witchcraft, I shouldn't do too badly in actual combat tests."
Ian wasn't really sure about it.
Because combat tests so many things, and often it's not about how proficient you are.
Just like Levi, who has a second-class talent, his body is like a bull, and his physical qualities are probably not worse than Levi's even without training in knightly magic.
And Lucy too.
Perhaps his skill level isn't as high, but as a member of a wizarding family and possessing exceptional mental strength, he can unleash tremendous power.
"The real test will begin three months from now."
Ian took a deep breath.
Thinking of this, he quickly began practicing the lightness technique.
Not enough talent.
Then let's keep improving!
Several days later, he reached the peak of knighthood, and the knighthood could no longer improve.
During this time, he also studied the rune feathers that Mickey had given him.
However, compared to the witchcraft already purchased from the library, this is undoubtedly much more difficult.
However, as an excellent level of witchcraft, Ian did not want to give up.
If you master it, it can be your trump card!
......
In the blink of an eye.
The first lesson after March began.
The meditation courses remain largely unchanged.
The witchcraft course was directly transformed into a combat course.
Inside the test site.
Charles drew circle after circle, explaining the rules of the battle.
"Each time, an opponent is randomly assigned, and the battle takes place within the circle. If you leave the circle or are knocked down, it means you have lost."
"The first group, Ian Green and Harman Morgan."
All eyes were drawn to them, and the members of the mutual aid society wore strange expressions.
What a coincidence!
Harman, who was in the distance, also looked up, his eyes lighting up.
He stretched his body, grinned, and strode into the circle, looking at Ian defiantly.
Ian, of course, wasn't going to be intimidated; after all, it was just practice.
"Ian, I've finally met you today." Harman gritted his teeth, glaring at Ian with resentment.
"bring it on."
Ian remained calm.
"start!"
Charles's voice rang out.
Harman stood still, ready to recite the incantation.
Ian walked up to Harman in a few steps.
"What are you doing?"
Harman was terrified, his incantation was interrupted, and he saw a fist appear before him.
boom!
One punch.
Harman's vision went black, and he crashed to the ground.
"Ian wins!"
Outside the circle, Charles raised an eyebrow and also played the Cavaliers!
Moreover, this fighting talent.
It's really good.
I really want it!
