Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Point Allocation, Nine-Tenths Fake with One-Tenth Real
The unfamiliar Third Ring Wizard took the Space Ring, glanced at it, confirmed the amount of Divine Power Crystals was correct, and then smiled, saying, "No need to be so courteous. My name is Dan Terry, just call me Wizard Dadan."
"Lor, I’ve heard about your performance in the Divine Kingdom. Very impressive, managing to suppress thousands of apprentices single-handedly."
"And you’ve just returned for fifteen days, yet you’ve broken through to become a First Ring Wizard."
"Wizard Dadan, you’re flattering me," Lor replied humbly.
"Which path are you on? Fusion Witchcraft or the path of Gu Lei and the others?" Ignoring Lor’s modesty, Dadan was more curious about the path he was taking.
This person was regarded highly by Speaker Yassen; it would be a pity if he took Gu Lei’s path.
Though there was hope to break through to the Fourth Ring, it would only be slightly stronger than a solo Elemental Mage, which is meaningless.
"Fusion Witchcraft," Lor stated honestly.
"Good, ambitious," Dadan laughed, "I hope one day I can witness you becoming a Fourth Ring Wizard."
"We’ll see," Lor responded vaguely.
"Alright then, practice well," Dadan nodded, "I’ll be heading back now."
As he finished speaking, he used the Earth Vein Traveling Technique and disappeared instantly from the spot.
Though Lor had a promising future, it was far from the point where he needed to be flattered, unless he truly broke through to the Fourth Ring.
"Indeed, he didn’t even ask what I was doing with so many Magic Crystals," Lor smirked, closing the door again as he walked into the laboratory.
The light screen in the laboratory was still on, still on the "Provision" page.
He swiped the light screen a few times, purchasing the spaceship and two scrolls he had just selected.
As soon as he clicked confirm, 4.15 million contribution points were deducted from his card.
These items, unlike redeeming Magic Crystals and contribution points, would take some time to be delivered, needing to be transported from other Wizard Towers.
"4.15 million contribution points, just like that, gone."
It felt great when buying things, but after paying, he always felt a bit of emptiness.
That was 4.15 million; much of the resources he plundered from the Divine Kingdom were gone.
"Gone is gone, money is made to be spent anyway."
Lor sighed, not thinking much more about it, and silently thought to himself, "Open the panel, charge 2 million Magic Crystals."
[Name: Lor Rox
Age: 13 years
Physique: 45.5+
Spirit: 100+
Spiritual Energy: 1000+
Witchcraft: Magma Eruption Technique (1.6+0.4 Rings) (Pseudo 2 Rings) +, Adaptive Rock Barrier (0.9+0.2 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, Upgradable), Flame Wall (0.9 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, Upgradable), Floating Technique (0.9 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, Upgradable), Sea of Consciousness Microscope (0.9 Rings, Limit-Break 0.1 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, Upgradable), Earth Vein Breathing Technique (0.9 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, Upgradable), High-Temperature Amplification (0.9 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, Upgradable).
Meditation Talent: Level 8
Meditation Technique: Fire and Earth Meditation Technique (First Ring Wizard)
Charging Points: 20.01, 20.34%]
Upon advancing to a First Ring Wizard, his physique directly reached 45.5 under the transformation of Elemental Energy.
Due to advancing, the Magma Eruption Technique lost its Limit-Break points, turning into a basic amplification of +0.4, essentially unchanged from before.
"It’s a pity that even if I max out the Magma Eruption Technique, it can only reach 2.1 Rings." Lor shook his head with some regret.
The power effect conversion from the First Ring to the Second Ring Witchcraft is 2:1, except for another Limit Break after reaching the First Ring pinnacle.
This means that his Magma Eruption Technique’s additional +0.4 Rings, after completely surpassing the Second Ring limit, will become +0.2 Rings, and only then will the ’Pseudo 2 Rings’ disappear.
This diminishing effect is due to the greater power gap after the Second Ring, not because Lor’s Witchcraft has truly weakened.
"First, max out the Magma Eruption Technique, then advance the Sea of Consciousness Microscope, and Adaptive Rock Barrier," Lor thought to himself.
Upon advancing to a First Ring Wizard, he gained seven First Ring Witchcraft Positions.
The three core witchcraft must be advanced, and he already had ideas for the other four First Ring witchcraft.
[Magma Eruption Technique (1.6+0.4 Rings) → Magma Eruption Technique (1.9+0.2 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, No Second Ring Witchcraft Position, Not Upgradable)]
[Charging Points: 20.01, 20.34% → 19.33, 15.85%]
[Adaptive Rock Barrier (0.9+0.2 Rings) → Adaptive Rock Barrier (1.9+0.1 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, No Second Ring Witchcraft Position, Not Upgradable)]
[Charging Points: 19.33, 15.85% → 17.25, 33.56%]
[Sea of Consciousness Microscope (0.9 Rings, Limit-Break 0.1 Rings) → Sea of Consciousness Microscope (1.9+0.1 Rings) (Pseudo Second Ring) (Limit-Breakable, No Second Ring Witchcraft Position, Not Upgradable)]
[Charging Points: 17.25, 33.56% → 15.28, 75.62%]
"The ’Pseudo Second Ring’ behind the Sea of Consciousness Microscope is really annoying, better hide it." Lor frowned, wiping over the Microscope Witchcraft.
[Sea of Consciousness Microscope (1.9 Rings) (Limit-Breakable, No Second Ring Witchcraft Position, Not Upgradable)]
"Looks much better now."
Lor let out a breath, not in a hurry to break the Limit of the Witchcraft.
Waiting for the Small Meteor Technique to merge successfully before breaking the Limit would be a better choice; Charging Points should be used wisely.
Turning off the panel, Lor went to the left side of the laboratory to the desk, picking up a piece of parchment and started writing.
What he was writing was the advancement direction for Agular’s path from the Second Ring to the Third Ring.
With this document, it was almost certain that Agular would become a Third Ring.
In his previous life’s online forum browsing, he knew a little about every advancement route, although only a little, as most things were not comprehensible to any player.
Fifteen minutes later.
Lor put down his pen, looking at the parchment filled to the brim, feeling a bit proud: "Hidden half a truth among nine and a half parts nonsense, anyone who sees this will just think I’m a genius, right?"
As a genius, it’s normal to show the genius side of one’s system.
But if it also stands out in other paths, it might be overstepping a bit.
Though indirectly sheltered by Yassen, he still concealed where necessary, as it’s just a matter of convenience.
"Hmm, no rush to hand this to the mentor, I’ll wait a bit."
Lor casually stuffed the written parchment into the bookshelf at the back and then left the laboratory, heading to the central library on the fifteenth floor of the Wizard Tower.
He needed to select the remaining four witchcraft to form a linkage system for the Small Meteor Witchcraft.
Unoptimized First Ring Witchcraft isn’t expensive, generally around 1,000 contribution points.
In just half an hour, Lor selected the four needed First Ring witchcraft, spending 4,233 contribution points.
These four First Ring witchcraft are Earth Vein Traveling Technique, Flying Technique, Earth Vein Perception Technique, Gravity Technique.
The first two witchcraft purely compensate for his speed shortcomings.
As for the Earth Vein Perception Technique, it’s a crucial witchcraft prepared to merge into the Small Meteor Witchcraft, and one of the steps for achieving ultra-long-range attacks.
Regarding the Gravity Technique, its function is similar to the High-Temperature Amplification, able to raise the upper limit of the Small Meteor Witchcraft from another angle.
"Once the four First Ring Witchcraft Models are built, I can start trying to merge the Small Meteor Witchcraft."
Lor was filled with anticipation, "Once the fusion is complete, it’s questionable whether Mala could survive a direct hit or not."
Unconsciously, he was already close to growing to a level comparable to Mala.
