Chapter 172 Three Years

The Crimson Mask, the first high-level magic item he made during his apprenticeship with Thane, was shattered and damaged.

It's impossible to say that I don't feel distressed.

After all, in addition to containing Thain's wisdom, it also included several months of his time.

However, in addition to feeling distressed and annoyed, Thain also had a touch of excitement and dissatisfaction.

The idea of ​​engraving the advanced version of the Eye of the Sun magic into the mask is indeed achievable.

This can be proven by the fact that Thane has successfully carved into two Eyes of the Sun nodes.

However, the super elemental characteristics of the Eye of the Sun magic mean that its requirements for material carriers are also very strict.

Thain's crimson mask is already a prop specially prepared and enhanced by Thain. It can only withstand the light and fire elements of the two Eyes of the Sun.

"It is not realistic for me at this stage to have thirty-six eyes of the sun engraved on the mask."

"But I can definitely engrave six of them first. Coupled with the Eye of the Sun magic I have mastered, that's the firepower of twelve."

"If the two are launched at the same time, it is very likely that even the existence of the official magician level can be threatened!" Thain said excitedly.

Thain acted like a crazy alchemist at this time.

Faced with Selena's concern and inquiry, Thain had no energy to answer, but muttered to himself.

However, Thain's brain was not damaged in the experimental accident just now.

Instead, his mind was running at high speed.

This is a bold attempt by a talented apprentice to combine the magic he has learned with alchemy.

The original power of the six Eyes of the Sun was astonishing enough, comparable to the power methods mastered by official magicians.

And when the twelve Eyes of the Sun appeared, I really couldn't imagine what the scene would be like?

Is this still a power that can be mastered at the apprentice level?

Without even having time to say hello to Selina, Thain hurriedly ran out of the dormitory after using the cleaning technique to clean the magic robe and the blackened skin.

He now urgently needs to go to the trading area outside the Holy Tower to buy a batch of light and fire magic materials that will be used in his next experiment, as well as a large amount of magic metal.

In fact, you can also buy related materials in the commercial street in Holy Tower College, but Thain found that the things sold in the college were too expensive...

Although he has money, he is not interested in wasting it like this.

Especially feeling the magic more and more

After seeing the hardships of exploration and the exaggerated amount of financial, material and energy investment required in the process, Thain was not willing to waste any of it.

Of course, buying items outside of Holy Tower Academy has a special feature that cannot be compared with the stores inside the academy.

That is, the commercial streets outside the Holy Tower are a mixed bag, and without enough discernment, it is very possible to buy defective products or even counterfeit products.

The shops in the academy are all exclusive to the Holy Tower, or are regular magic shops certified by the Holy Tower.

If an apprentice buys fake or defective products in the academy, the apprentice does not need to come forward. Shengta will naturally seek justice for the purchaser and demand relevant compensation.

As an alchemist, Thain still believes in his own eyesight.

If even he could mislead him, then Thane wouldn't have to worry about the magic of the Eye of the Sun. He should go back and learn the basics of alchemy again first.

After several days of raids in the commercial area outside the Holy Tower, Thain found most of the alchemy materials he needed.

In addition to these alchemical materials, Thain also went to the Holy Tower Library and immersed himself in reading a lot of information related to magic formations.

After all the preparatory conditions were met, Thain returned to the alchemy experiment.

During this period, Thain spent more than half a year just looking up information.

In the laboratory, Thain took a deep breath in front of the alchemy table and started the second production of the "Eye of the Sun Mask".

The last time the Crimson Mask shattered, it was a lesson learned for Thane.

Thain returned to the experiment with a lot more confidence and confidence than last time.

As for whether it can be successful...

Thain did some calculations and found that it should be 60 to 70 percent. This was already a high number, and it was worth his while!

…

The process of studying magic, exploring truth, and delving into the mysteries of alchemy makes it easy for people to ignore the passage of time.

When Thain devoted himself to the research on the Eye of the Sun mask without sleep and food, more than three years had passed before he knew it.

Three years later, Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Academy.

Compared with previous years, this year's Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Academy has a more tense atmosphere.

Including the number of apprentices in the college, it is also much more than in previous years.

The Holy Tower enrollment period has not yet come. The reason why this situation occurs is because the regional Holy Tower Academy War, which is held once every 50 years, will be held in half a year.

Although most of the apprentices of Jizhiyuan Holy Tower are not very old.

But there are some veteran apprentices who participated in the last regional Holy Tower Academy War.

These old apprentices are now basically senior apprentices and above, and there are few lower than this level.

Even these veteran apprentices who are at the top level of the academy's apprenticeship field have a change of expression and lingering fears about the regional Holy Tower Academy war.

It is conceivable that from top to bottom, it will bring much pressure to the ordinary apprentices of Jizhiyuan Holy Tower.

Some apprentices even spread rumors and regarded the regional Saint Tower Academy war as a meat grinder that caused a large number of apprentice deaths.

It is true that in previous regional Saint Tower Academy wars, a certain proportion of apprentices from each Saint Tower Academy died, but it was not exaggerated to such a serious extent.

The Azure Source Saint Tower did not train these apprentices to die.

The original intention of the regional Saint Tower Academy war was to hone and select more outstanding apprentices.

To serve as a reserve talent supplement for future formal magicians and magician corps in the plane war.

The Saint Tower will even give these apprentices who participate in the regional Saint Tower Academy war a one-time life-saving prop.

When they encounter an enemy that is difficult to resist, they can leave the trial area in time.

But despite such protection, the apprentice loss rate of each Saint Tower Academy war is still as much as 20% to 30%.

The Azure Source Saint Tower is a little worse... because its foundation is extremely potential, and unlike other Saint Tower Academy, the proportion of excellent apprentice seeds is not as high.

In the last regional Saint Tower Academy war, the apprentice loss rate of the Azure Source Saint Tower was close to 40%.

No wonder so many veteran apprentices are terrified of the regional Saint Tower Academy war. Isn't the loss of nearly half of the death rate a step into the gates of hell?

Of course, the benefits of participating in the regional Saint Tower Academy war are also very obvious.

After each regional Saint Tower Academy war, the number of formal magicians in the major Saint Towers will surge for a period of time, and the Azure Source Saint Tower is no exception.

Moreover, apprentices who can persist to the end in the regional Saint Tower Academy war can get a valuable reward.

These rewards are directly linked to the academy points, energy crystals and even magic coins.

If you rank high, the generous rewards will even attract formal magicians above level one to covet it.
