As soon as Richard heard Meiluo's anxious tone, he knew something must have happened.
Immediately, Richard followed Meiluo and hurried all the way to the second-floor laboratory of Professor Ceres.
Along the way, Richard tried to ask Meiluo if she knew what had happened, but Meiluo looked around, shook her head, and said that she would know when she got to her mentor.
Seeing Meiluo being so cautious, Richard immediately understood that Meiluo must know something but couldn't make it public.
All the wizard apprentices of various levels that he met along the way were in a hurry!
As soon as the two of them arrived on the second floor, they heard the voice of Teacher Ceres coming from inside.
"Both of you come in! Ahem." This time, Celes was not doing an experiment. It seemed that he was waiting for Richard.
As soon as Richard entered the room, he was shocked to see that his mentor was pale and bloodless, and was coughing non-stop.
It looked like he was seriously injured.
"Teacher, are you injured?"
"I'm fine, just a minor injury!" Celes waved his hand and said.
"You all saw what happened this afternoon, right? I cannot reveal the details because it is top secret. But as my disciples, I hope you two can prepare early.
Tomorrow, the school should organize all wizard apprentices to participate in wartime missions."
Richard's face turned grim, and he couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, has the situation collapsed to this extent?"
If the opponent is really a Shadow Hunter or even a higher level, it is barely acceptable for the second or third level wizard apprentices to participate in the battle, but letting the first level wizard apprentices participate is no different from sending them to die.
Seeing Richard's expression, Celes couldn't help but laugh: "Richard, what are you thinking about? The enemy has been repelled by us, but the official wizards of the school are still stationed near the passage to prevent the enemy from making a comeback.
Well.
In the previous battle, some of the vassal races of the night elves were defeated and fled in all directions, so the wizard apprentice was sent to clean up these trash.
At that time, the third-level wizard apprentices will fight independently, and the second-level wizard apprentices and first-level wizard apprentices will be mixed into teams to carry out the cleanup.
Generally, one to two second-level apprentices lead three to four first-level apprentices. The specific personnel combination is not clear yet.
Ahem.
And you, Richard, since you are the head freshman, although you have not participated in the second-level promotion assessment, the school has already determined that you have the strength of a second-level wizard apprentice, so it is very likely that you will be recognized as a second-level wizard apprentice.
Ahem. The top three in the freshman ranking competition will all be recognized in this way."
After listening to this, Richard remained silent.
"Why? Are you scared?"
"No. It's just..." Richard hesitated, not knowing what to say.
"Richard, you have to look at things from a different angle. This is both a challenge and an opportunity for you! For example, this time, I got a material that I had been looking for for a long time - the eyeball of the dark fishman.
I had always thought that things that had become extinct in the main plane actually still existed in the Underdark.
So, I believe, Richard, you will definitely have your opportunities and your gains.
Moreover, the wizard's pursuit of truth will never be smooth sailing. What you need to do is to increase your strength and clear away all obstacles!"
Richard, who came out of Ceres' laboratory, was not in a very good mood!
However, the only thing worth mentioning is that Richard has already made an appointment with Senior Meiluo. Senior Meiluo will contact Hans, Kalina and another senior student in advance to join the team headed by Richard.
The joy of winning the first place among freshmen had long since disappeared.
Unexpectedly, the school would directly classify the top three in the qualifying round as having the strength of second-level wizard apprentices, thereby indirectly increasing the difficulty of the tasks for the top three freshmen.
This made Richard feel a little annoyed.
The vassal race of the night elves is a small fry, but so is a first-level wizard apprentice.
Small fish against small fish!
If I had known this would happen, I would have just stayed at home. But if I stayed at home, I would not have the Banshee's Finger on my hand.
However, the instructor was not wrong.
Including my own golden finger, I have to kill monsters to obtain energy points. The steady flow is not suitable for me.
Moreover, although this clearing mission is full of crises, it is also accompanied by opportunities.
Maybe I can gain a large amount of energy points again and quickly improve my strength.
It is also possible to obtain rare alchemical materials like the mentor.
However, preparations still need to be strengthened.
The charred wooden staff buried outside the school's residence must be dug out immediately, then sold directly and exchanged for items that can instantly increase your strength.
In this situation, I can't care about so many things.
Moreover, he is now surrounded by the aura of the freshman chief. Even if others have doubts, the school will definitely not do anything to him without real evidence.
Also, you have to take the Soul-Eating Spider Egg with you.
When killing the enemy, you can also use the enemy's soul to feed it, killing two birds with one stone.
Finally, the level 0 sorcery of summoning skeletons must be upgraded to the mastery level.
I heard from the instructor of the last paid course "Introduction to Summoning the Undead" that when summoning skeletons at the mastery level, there is a certain chance that two skeleton soldiers can be summoned at the same time.
At the master level, there is a small chance of summoning three skeleton soldiers at the same time.
However, if Richard wants to summon skeleton warriors, his current mental strength is not enough.
It is said that only after the total amount of mental power reaches a certain standard can the skeleton warriors be summoned directly.
Otherwise, you can only use the method of slow training, constantly killing enemies, and using the death energy of enemies to strengthen the skeleton soldiers.
Dead air, that is, death energy, is a type of dark energy.
Similar to ice energy, ice energy belongs to the water category, or it can be said to be variant energy.
After returning to the dormitory, Richard immediately planned to start upgrading the zero-level witchcraft to summon skeletons.
[The host is found to be performing zero-level witchcraft to summon skeletons. Yes/No, consume energy to gain inspiration for the zero-level witchcraft to summon skeletons? ]
After looking at the 0-1000 slider, Richard thought for a moment and decided to drag the slider to 1000 and selected "Yes!"
This time, Richard decided to use up all his energy points to see if he could upgrade his summoning skeletons directly to the master level.
As the world spun around, Richard arrived in the dream space. This time, the scene was a huge and empty hall. In the center of the hall, the phantom possessed by Richard held the Banshee's Finger, which was also inlaid with a crystal ball.
As a low incantation sounded, the magic circle carved in the crystal ball was immediately projected onto the ground in the center of the hall.
With the crystal ball on which the magic circle has been printed in advance, the entire summoning process becomes very simple.
A few seconds later, Richard's mental tentacles once again probed into that strange dimension.
In this way, the process of summoning, probing and communicating is repeated over and over until it is completed.
After hundreds and thousands of times, the efficiency of Richard's mental tentacles' communication became higher and higher, from originally only one-on-one to now one-on-two, and finally, finally, it could barely reach one-on-three.
And this time, Richard also deliberately tried to select skeleton soldiers who held a sword in one hand and a shield in the other.
As for why he did this, Richard had thought it over carefully and made this choice specifically based on his own combat characteristics, because Richard knew that his characteristic was super strong long-range attacks.
Therefore, if you can have sword and shield skeleton soldiers who are mainly defensive to resist the enemy head-on in the front, while you attack from the back, then whether you use witchcraft or bows and crossbows to attack, it will be easier.
Considering his own safety, it would be best if he could summon two sword and shield skeletons, one to block in front and one to protect him at his side.
If successful, even if he encounters an enemy like William, who has super high attack power and fast movement speed, he will let the other party know why the flowers are so red.
After his soul returned to his body, Richard suppressed his desire to summon in the room.
I took a look at the panel, [Witchcraft]: Summon Skeleton (Master 7%, Mystic: Triple Summoning)
He was delighted, it seemed that his feeling in the dream was correct, he could indeed summon three skeleton soldiers at the same time. Moreover, it was different from the certain probability mentioned by the teacher. If he used the secret technique, he would definitely be able to summon three skeleton soldiers.
The difference of just two words makes a world of difference!
In the eyes of ordinary necromancer apprentices, the relatively common magic of summoning skeletons has been played out by Richard.
Hey! Controlling Skeletons (Mastery 26%), Richard couldn't help but be surprised.
I remember that I was only at the skilled level before, how come I am at the proficient level now?
Could it be that this trick is somehow related to the level 0 witchcraft summoning skeletons? After all, the improvement is so great that it is difficult to explain it by the commonality of witchcraft.
Unfortunately, my energy points have been used up now and I can't try again.
Originally, I could try to upgrade the trick of controlling skeletons to the master level to see if it would be of any benefit to the zero-level witchcraft of summoning skeletons.
After a brief thought, Richard decided to dig out the charred wooden staff first. Since the location was not far from the school, only five or six miles away, a round trip would not take too much time.
Moreover, this is a good opportunity to test the combat effectiveness of the skeleton soldiers and his new tactics in the field.
Covered tightly, Richard walked out of the school alone.
After walking a few hundred meters, Richard saw that there was no one around, so he began to use witchcraft to summon skeletons.
With the injection of a trace of mental power, the crystal ball on the Banshee's finger instantly projected a summoning array with a diameter of three meters on the ground.
In just over a second, three skeleton soldiers holding swords and shields crawled out from the center of the summoning circle that was glowing green.
But at the moment of success, Richard suddenly felt as if his body was hollowed out, and his head was dizzy!
"Oh no, this is a sign of mental exhaustion!"
Richard immediately took out a tube of vitality potion and drank it in big gulps.
As Richard sat down in a huddle, the three sword-and-shield skeletons very responsibly formed a three-point formation with Richard as the center to protect him.
Richard, who was taking a break, was very satisfied with this!
An hour later, Richard, holding a long package in his hand, started his return journey. Along the way, he happened to encounter a sharp-toothed crocodile and immediately ordered a sword and shield skeleton to attack.
Although the Sword and Shield Skeleton was clearly at a disadvantage, the sharp-toothed crocodile's bloody mouth made the skeleton soldiers helpless for a while.
It seems that having a shield is still useful!
Immediately, Richard sent another skeleton with a sword and shield.
Under the siege of two sword-and-shield skeletons, the Sharp-Tooth Crocodile began to suffer more wounds. As time passed, the wounds gradually increased, and the Sharp-Tooth Crocodile began to show signs of retreating.
But Richard would never let it escape as he wished, so he sent out the last Sword and Shield Skeleton.
Under the siege of three sword-and-shield skeletons, the sharp-toothed crocodile didn't even have a chance to escape and was killed on the spot.
Summoning three sword and shield skeletons to guard him, Richard fell into deep thought for a moment.
The fighting power of the Sword and Shield Skeleton was weaker than he expected, because the fighting power of a Sharp-Tooth Crocodile was similar to that of a quasi-knight among humans.
By comparison, Richard's three sword-and-shield skeletons combined are about the same as regular knights, and their attack power is really not high.
But in terms of defensive capabilities, it's still okay.
Richard suddenly had an idea and stuffed a tube of Fire Dance Star into one of the sword and shield skeletons.
