  There's nothing we can do about it!

  In the end, Richard used four of the five regular books, namely "Introduction to Dark Energy Particles", "Three Basic Applications of Dark Energy Particles", "Human Osteology" and "Common Animal Osteology".

  Richard finally understood why a considerable number of freshmen only learned one or two tricks after half a year in the academy!

  Who would have thought that tricks also had prerequisites! !

  The knowledge that a first-level wizard apprentice needs to learn every day is not small, and in addition, they have to spend time earning points.

  If some students also want to study other subjects such as pharmacy, human body modification, etc., the time schedule will be even more full.

  So,

  even though there is still one book left in the borrowing quota, Richard has no intention of using it.

  Just the zero-level sorcery [Grasp of Shadow] involves the learning of so much prerequisite content, so you should just do it step by step.

  Richard still understood the principle of biting off more than you can chew.

  After a long while, Richard looked through it again, and after making sure that there was no more pre-requisites, he went downstairs to the counter to register.

  "Eh, Shadow Grip?" The old man was very surprised this time. He looked up at Richard and said:

  "Newbie, are you sure you want to borrow this book? For a first-level wizard apprentice, the Grasp of Shadow is a bit too difficult to master."

  "I suggest you change one. Otherwise, you will waste a magic stone if you come back to change it later."

  Richard knew that the old man meant well, but he had an inspiration panel with him, so he was naturally different from others.

  "Thank you for your concern, but I still want to try!"

  The old man shook his head and stopped persuading him.

  "Well, two magic stones in total. The witchcraft books and ordinary books must be returned within one month. No books are allowed to be taken out of the school!"

  As Richard was leaving, the old man muttered to himself: "The new recruits the school has recruited are really inferior to the last one, with high expectations and low skills."

  As soon as Richard returned to the dormitory, except for eating, sleeping and attending classes, he spent the rest of his time studying the books "Human Osteology", "Common Animal Osteology", "Basics of Mental Control" and the magic trick "Manipulating Skeletons".

  A few days later, Richard, who looked haggard, finally stood up with a happy expression and stretched his aching waist and legs.

  He had been enduring the aftereffects of the Swiftness Potion while studying day and night for the past few days. He had finally finished reading the general knowledge book "The Fundamentals of Mental Power Control" and had basically figured out how to perform the trick of "Controlling Skeletons".

  It's not that Richard likes to study on his own, but he has already finished the course "Basics of Mental Control".

  There is no other choice but to teach myself.

  Fortunately, general knowledge books are not difficult to learn.

  Now, he still needs one more thing to perform the trick of [Control Skeletons].

  As the name suggests, to control skeletons, you first need to have a skeleton for you to control.

  Therefore, the skeleton needed to perform magic-level witchcraft is called a witchcraft medium. Only with this medium can witchcraft be performed normally.

  For Richard, if he just wants to practice and not use it for fighting, then all he needs now is an ordinary animal or human skeleton.

  "Boom boom boom!"

  The knock on the door interrupted Richard's thoughts. He opened the door and saw that it was Meiluo.  

  Meiluo seemed to be a little worried, and she forced a smile and said, "Richard, for this [Crystal Web Spider Cleaning] mission, Hans has submitted the completion certificate at the mission area counter after returning.

  The school adjusted this task into a repeatable task a day ago, so in this case, the six crystal web spiders we cleared can be counted as completing two clearing tasks, and a total of 40 points and 40 magic stones will be rewarded.

  If the four of us split it equally, each of us can get 10 points and 10 magic stones.

  There are also the 9 balls of crystal spider silk that Hans sold and some other miscellaneous items, totaling 32 magic stones, and each of us can get another 8 magic stones."

  When Meiluo said this, Richard's face lit up with joy. He was just worried that the remaining three magic stones in his hand might not be enough to buy a witchcraft medium.

  But I didn't expect that more magic stones would arrive in my account so soon. Senior Meiluo is really my lucky star!

  "However, since a member of the team was killed, the school will deduct all the income for compensation." Meiluo seemed a little embarrassed to speak, and her voice became softer and softer.

  Richard's face turned black in an instant! He was speechless for a while.

  After all this time, you were waiting for me here, senior sister!

  No wonder Meiluo looked embarrassed. Not only did Richard take risks in this mission, but he also got no benefits.

  Who wouldn't be angry?

  However, when Richard thought of Meiluo's last time of disregarding danger and using the precious alchemical bomb Frost Bite to rescue him, he calmed down and said slowly:

  "It's okay, Senior. You couldn't have expected this situation to happen."

  "By the way, Senior, I'm learning the trick of [Manipulating Skeletons], but the book says that it requires a witchcraft medium to perform it, is that right?"

  "Huh? Richard, you started learning magic tricks so soon!" Meiluo looked at Richard in surprise.

  "It does require a witchcraft medium, though. I practiced this trick a lot last year, but I rarely do it now."

  "By the way, you probably don't have any skeletons for practice, right? I'll go get mine for you." Meiluo reacted instantly and said.

  Huh! Richard didn't expect such a pleasant surprise.

  "Haha, that's great, thank you, Senior Meiluo!"

  Although Meiluo is a bit sentimental, she is indeed very enthusiastic towards her junior Richard. With Meiluo around, many things are very convenient for Richard to do.

  After a while, Meiluo came back with a bag in her hand and handed it to Richard.

  "Richard, this is the skeleton of a quasi-knight. After preliminary purification and strengthening, it is still a good medium for witchcraft. At least it is enough for you to practice the trick of controlling the skeleton!"

  "Thank you, Senior Meiluo. I won't be polite then!" Richard said happily.

  This is really a new hope.

  Richard had thought that due to the shortage of magic stones, there might be some problems in purchasing the witchcraft medium, but he did not expect that the skeleton of a quasi-knight would come into his hands so quickly.

  The two chatted for a while, and not long after, Meiluo seemed to have thought of something important and left in a hurry.

  Richard placed the bulging bag on the table and opened it. It was indeed a bag full of human bones.

  The bones are as white as jade, and I think they must have been processed in some way. I don't know how much magic stones such a skeleton is worth in the trading area, but I think it should not be cheap.

  Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing. Since the witchcraft medium is also ready, Richard decided to start practicing the magic trick [Manipulating Skeletons] immediately.
