Wizard Bloodline

"A washbasin, a squatting pit, a bathtub, a stove... tsk... and a fireplace."

Ronan stood in the middle of the room, looking around at everything in his new home. When he saw the fireplace that was covered with dust and cobwebs, he poked his head in to take a second look at it out of curiosity.

"Winter is coming soon, and it will come in handy then."

Ronan sat down at the only table in the room, grabbed the old copper pot on the table, shook it, and then put it down again.

Overall, Ronan is quite satisfied with his "new home".

The room is not big, but it is much more spacious than the tree house we lived in before. Although the furniture and so on are old, at least it has the same things.

An important point was that there was a toilet in the house, so from now on he would never have to empty the urine pot himself.

Shuidi Street, known as the town's "slum", is not easy to find such a house with decent living conditions.

This house is considered one of the best in the nearby area. Of course, the rent is nearly half higher than that of ordinary houses.

The glass oil lamp gave off a dim light. Ronan sat at the table, supporting his chin with one hand and tapping the table unconsciously with the other, like a man who was so bored that he didn't know what to do.

Suddenly the sound of fingers tapping on the table stopped, Ronan's eyes came back to consciousness, and he muttered quietly: "Hoddam Wizarding Academy"

I don’t know if it’s because I was unwilling to drop out of Hoddam, or because I was a student for more than ten years in my previous life and followed the rules.

Ronan discovered that he had always had an inexplicable obsession with "enrolling in school".

So much so that after learning that the college had stopped recruiting students during the day, I almost lost my temper.

But now looking back and thinking about it, his biggest purpose in wanting to enter the academy for further study was simply to get a key inheritance to become an official wizard.

Putting this aside, it's not like you have to enter the academy right away.

"The most important task in the apprenticeship stage is to accumulate spiritual power. I am still a long way from being qualified to enter the realm of a formal wizard.

It doesn't really matter whether you can get in now or not.

There is this unwillingness and irritability."

Ronan stood up, stared at the glass oil lamp in front of him, and said to himself: "It is better to think more about how to survive the crisis of the black witch invasion, and wait until the eighth and ninth level wizard apprentices By the time, things may take a new turn.”

Thinking of this, Ronan couldn't help but recall his previous battles.

These rescue and escape battles seemed to be smooth and smooth, but in fact they revealed huge problems.

The most important one - is.

"Serious lack of control means!"

Ronan couldn't help but frown.

He had almost no field control skills, and he relied on the super damage of [Energy Missile] and the unexpected timing to kill the black robe several times.

Facing an opponent with a stance-style output, Ronan's fighting style may still be effective.

However, if he faced an enemy who was keen and alert and could move flexibly, such as the two-headed demon lizard, his weakness of lack of effective control methods was immediately exposed - [Energy Missile] missed several times in a row, and finally the two-headed demon lizard was defeated. The demon lizard escaped.

"Control skills are an indispensable and important part of any complete combat system."

"Only by effectively restricting the opponent's actions can the hit rate of [Energy Missile] be maximized."

"And spells with similar effects"

Ronan thought for a while, maybe only ice and electricity spells were more suitable for him.

The former usually comes with spell effects such as freezing and slowing down, while the latter comes with special effects of paralysis and stiffness.

Spells of these two series are relatively common in the wizarding land of Hoddam and are relatively easy to obtain.

"Let's go to the market sometime and see if we can buy another suitable protective weapon."

In the battle with the senior apprentice Black Robe, Ronan felt the importance of protective magic tools for the first time.

If he hadn't carried a magical ring with double [Protection] runes and activated it at the critical moment, he would have fallen down with hatred in the first round when he faced the black-robed wizard's corpse explosion spell and the sword and shield skeleton servants. , where is the [Energy Missile] promotion to the master level, and a series of events that open up the extraordinary realm.

"You can never have too much of this kind of life-saving thing. Especially in this situation."

Ronan touched his chin and even considered whether to learn a defensive zero-level spell.

Later, I thought about it and decided to forget it. There are really not many people who learn defensive spells in the apprenticeship stage, because the zero-level defensive spells are generally brittle. If you can't withstand two spells of the same level, you have to renew them. Rather than expending a small amount of energy, If you don't want to be beaten passively, it's better to think about how to kill your opponent faster and end the battle more directly.

"Offense, control, defense. Then comes recovery and gain."

In battles between wizards, on-the-spot recovery is quite important.

Especially in the wizard apprenticeship stage, when mental power is not enough.

"Mental recovery potion, healing potion, detoxification potion, physical strength potion"

Ronan thought of a lot of potions that might be useful, and they were all summarized based on several battles.

As for on-the-spot enhancement methods, the only ones Ronan can consider currently are the physical exercises he usually practices.

There are benefits to being physically strong, as it can greatly increase your fault tolerance in combat. Ronan feels that this is the case at least in the apprenticeship stage.

Many wizards look down on body building and are unwilling to waste time on it, thinking that it is better to meditate and do witchcraft research.

Or they think that body building does not match the noble and respected status of wizards, and that it is something that only ordinary knights who are worthy of being wizards' followers will do.

However, he has no reservations or concerns in this regard.

"Money, money!"

In the end, Ronan found that no matter which aspect of the plan, he could not avoid a very critical thing-magic stone!

Taking drugs requires magic stones, buying spells requires magic stones, buying magic tools requires magic stones, and even body building requires magic stones to buy monster meat to assist in practice!

If there are magic stones, everything is easy to say, without them. Then all plans can only be empty talk.

"Take your time. There will always be what you should have."

Ronan comforted himself, stretched out his hand to light the oil lamp in front of him, and then took out three storage waist bags.

If you want to get rich, the fastest way at present is to open these three "safes" on hand.

The sky is dawning, and there is no sleep all night.

Ronan yawned and pushed the door open. He patted his robe and activated the [Clean] rune engraved on it. The odor that had been in the hut for a night immediately disappeared without a trace, and his whole body became clean and refreshed.

However, after several battles, this originally brand new robe has become a little worn out, with several holes, but Ronan was reluctant to replace it with a new one.

"Wizards hate physical training and close combat. Is it because it is too wasteful to wear out the robe?"

Ronan thought about it in his mind, chanted a spell, and threw a [Ice Ball] on the ground in front of him.
