Wizard: I want to be a top student

Chapter 157: First-level wood silkworm

One day a month later.

Randall was invited to his disciple's dormitory.

"Teacher, please take a look."

After the ceremony, Ivan welcomed his mentor into his alchemy room and motioned him to look at a mulberry wood cabinet placed on one side. A mulberry-colored cocoon hung in the corner of the cabinet.

After the silkworm queen grows to a certain extent, it begins to spin silk for the first time. After half an hour, it forms a fist-sized cocoon and wraps itself in it.

"I am afraid of disturbing the silkworm queen, so I can only invite you here. I hope you can take a look for me."

"Stop talking nonsense, how far has the little guy grown? Don't say you don't know." Randall looked solemn and stared at the cocoon in the corner.

"I know, I've been observing it. According to my estimation, its strength is 5.3 scale, its agility is 5.7 scale, and its constitution is 5.5 scale. The error will never exceed 0.05 scale. I can guarantee it."

Yi Wen replied worriedly. He originally thought that the Xunmu silkworm, like humans, would undergo a qualitative change when a certain data in the body approached or exceeded 6 scales. As a result, the queen silkworm suddenly spun silk and formed a cocoon.

He felt something and hurried back from the enchantment workshop. When he returned to the dormitory, the silkworms had already begun to form cocoons, and he didn't have time to communicate in detail.

Facing this kind of thing for the first time, he felt really unsure, so he invited Randall, the college's number one pest controller, to come over.

"This is normal. Their upper limit is different from that of us humans." Randall didn't find anything wrong.

"Do you need me to do anything?" Ivan asked.

"What you did just now is correct. You must not disturb the little one at this moment. You can only rely on it to get through the rest. You have already done what you should do."

Randall withdrew his gaze, otherwise he would have other thoughts.

Unlike humans, the metamorphosis of insects often has only two results, either progress, or death in the metamorphosis, and outsiders have no way to intervene.

"You might as well spend more time with it. If you stay nearby, the little guy can transform in peace."

"That's all."

After Randall left, Ivan did not go to the enchantment workshop and stayed in the alchemy room as he suggested.

The entire group relies on the Silkworm Queen for its existence. Once there is a problem with the Silkworm Queen, the Xunmu Silkworm Group may die out, so he cannot help but be cautious.

"Listen, you are not allowed to disturb Queen Silkworm, otherwise you will starve."

"Besides, keep an eye on me and don't let anything cause trouble."

Yiwen issued a ban to other Xunmu silkworms. Now these little guys have grown a lot. Except for some who were born not long ago, the other Xunmu silkworms have gradually learned the insect breathing method. The number of these little ones is close to three hundred.

Among the Xunmu silkworm group, the Silkworm Queen undoubtedly has the best qualifications and grows the fastest, followed by the five who first understood the insect breathing method. Their agility data is almost 5 points.

I just don’t know if their upper limit is the same as that of the Silkworm Queen. Ivan analyzed that this may be lower. After all, the Silkworm Queen is unique.

[Knight Breathing Experience Points +3]

[Knight Breathing: lv6(506/2000)]

[Biology experience value +1]

[Biology: lv4(65/1000)]

In the process of Xunmu Silkworms learning insect respiration, Ivan, who has been closely observing their growth, benefited a lot. Knight's Respiratory Science was upgraded to a level 6 subject, and Biology was upgraded to a level 4 subject.

In addition to the small light of wisdom, he also received a level 6 light of wisdom and a level 4 great light of wisdom.

Currently, there are still lights of wisdom on the Xueba panel: two copies of level 5, two copies of level 6, and three copies of great light of wisdom.

On the other hand, during this period of time, he had taken turns observing the three original stone formation disks, and gradually studied in a more in-depth direction. The completion rate of the text increased from 96% to 97%. This was the result of him not using the light of wisdom.

The early accumulation was almost complete, and he was about to start using the light of wisdom to speed up the enlightenment process.

However, we have to wait until the silkworm queen completes her transformation.

As the sun and moon alternate, it takes longer for the silkworm queen to emerge from her cocoon than Ivan expected. These days, Randall comes almost every two days.

Carme was worried that there would be a problem on his side, so he took the time to come to the door in the evening.

"Ivan, why don't you go to the enchantment workshop? Did my mother say something?"

"You are overthinking. Wizard Madeleine is so busy all day, how can she have time to embarrass an apprentice like me." Looking at the worried Kamei, Ivan took him directly to the alchemy room, pointed at a group of Xunmu silkworms and said:

"Here, it's them. One of the little guys is about to transform into a first-level creature. This period is very critical. I need to stay here in case something changes."

"Silkworm?" Kamei blinked in disbelief.

"That's right, a special kind of silkworm. Despite their small size, you may not be able to match them in terms of speed." Ivan said seriously.

"Really?" Kamei's eyes widened.

"Really, remember to keep it a secret for me."

"This... I'm actually worse than a worm." Kamei believed that Ivan would not lie to him, and when he looked at the inactive Xun Mu Silkworm, he suddenly felt a sense of frustration.

"Camey, there's more than one."

"You don't need to remind me."

Kamei stared at the Xun Mu Silkworm for a long time, looking left and right. The more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became to his eyes.

After a while, he reluctantly said goodbye.

When he returned home and stayed with Heidi, Kamei said absently: "Do you think it's still too late for me to switch to Blackbeard Music?"

"What?"

"Nothing, just talk."

"Did you go to Ivan's place and see that he cultivates excellent insects, so you want to raise a group of your own?" Heidi knew her brother too well, and she could tell what he was thinking with just one look.

"Do you think it's suitable?" Came's eyes lit up.

"Puff, you're stupid."

Seeing her brother's stupid reaction, Heidi couldn't help laughing, and then she reminded him seriously: "Came, you have to remember that our Lydia family's 'Frost Sea Drum' is the best, and other meditation methods will have some problems."

"Problem?"

"It's a small problem, this is what my grandmother said, remember not to tell anyone, otherwise you can't get away with it."

Under Heidi's repeated emphasis, Came could only agree, and also gave up the idea of ​​changing the meditation method.

Day after day passed, in Ivan's perception, the breath of the silkworm queen became more and more vague, and he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

Finally, on the twelfth day of cocooning, the mulberry-colored cocoon began to change color, and the vitality contained in it was quickly extracted.

With a slight sound, the whole cocoon trembled, and the silk that formed the cocoon suddenly became loose.

A wood-colored silkworm slowly crawled out of it. Who else could it be but the Silkworm Queen.

"It seems that there is not much change."

Seeing that the Silkworm Queen was safe and sound, Ivan breathed a sigh of relief. These days he was more nervous than when he was promoted.

Compared with before, the Silkworm Queen's body length increased by three or four centimeters, her figure was more symmetrical, and her wood-colored body had some light blue lines. The difference in other aspects seemed not big.

"Mumble."

The Silkworm Queen was unhappy when she heard this, and her breath was fully opened, showing her strength. It turned out that she habitually hid her breath.

After a conversation, Ivan found that the Silkworm Queen had become smarter, her wisdom had increased, and it was easier to communicate clearly.

Strength: 6.0, Agility: 6.8, Constitution: 6.2

With the increase in strength, the values ​​of various aspects of the body have obvious changes, and its ability to hide its breath has also improved accordingly, and it has become a group of cowards.

Ivan thought speechlessly that, apart from agility, he was not as good as the Silkworm Queen in terms of physical value. At this moment, he felt what Came felt.

The reason was that the jar of royal jelly played an important role. Was the instructor too partial to the Swift Wood Silkworm?

Putting this aside, the Silkworm Queen had a special ability - the power of controlling the crowd.

The name was given by Ivan. It was a strange ability that allowed other Swift Wood Silkworms to reintegrate into the body of the Silkworm Queen and unite as one. In this way, the power of other Swift Wood Silkworms could be borrowed and the damage suffered by the Silkworm Queen could be transferred.

"Not bad, not bad. Your ability has great potential."

Facing the Silkworm Queen who was looking at him eagerly, Ivan did not hesitate to praise him.

This was not an empty talk. If other Swift Wood Silkworms became first-level creatures and also evolved special abilities, they should be able to burst out with good combat power through the integration of the Silkworm Queen's power of controlling the crowd.

However, there is a prerequisite, that is, the abilities of other Swift Wood Silkworms are practical.

Randall hurried over after hearing the news, and he left with satisfaction after a while.

Within two days, the five swift wood silkworms that first comprehended the insect breathing method spun cocoons and entered the metamorphosis state. Ivan could only continue to guard the alchemy room.

The upper limit of these five swift wood silkworms did not reach the level of the queen silkworm. The highest agility value was only 5.2 scales. It was unknown whether they could overcome the current difficulties.

Fortunately, they did not disappoint Ivan. Ten days later, they broke out of the cocoon on the same day.

After testing, the wisdom of the five swift wood silkworms was also improved.

The five silkworms gave birth to three abilities, two of which were mimicry and two were mimicry, both of which were abilities to simulate other creatures. The last silkworm metamorphosed into a strange ability, similar to photosynthesis.

None of the abilities were biased towards combat. It must be admitted that this was in line with the habits of the swift wood silkworm group.

Ivan had considered this situation a long time ago and was not disappointed. In his opinion, it was great to be able to successfully complete the metamorphosis and survive, and he could not ask for too much.

"These little guys are already first-level creatures. Their physical fitness is equal to mine. The aura they derive should be able to meet the requirements. It's time to strengthen the Blackbeard Crown Mark."

If there is one, there will be two. If there are two, there will be three. At this time, six first-level Xunmu silkworms have been born. There will definitely be more in the future. This way of increasing the probability of promotion has been completed by him.

Ivan believes that the deduction of his mentor Randall is correct. So far, his promotion success rate has reached 70%.
