Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

Chapter 39: Chapter 39 Examination, Shopping and Card Drawingi

Translator: 549690339

Time flew by like a white horse disappearing into the distance.

Unbeknownst, the ninth week had already passed.

The fall term was almost halfway over.

At the southern and northern campuses of the Ravensmouth Biological and Medical College Junior Division, all wizard apprentices, whether they’re in their first, second, third or fourth year – including the Storm Sea New Blood and local apprentices, had received notices from the college.

The midterm exams would be held on the Friday of the tenth week and the Monday of the eleventh week.

The reason for having a two-day break during the tenth week was because the Friday exams were practical and required considerable physical exertion, mental and magical energy, necessitating a recovery period for the apprentices.

This notice was very sudden, arriving on Monday morning of the tenth week. The college hardly gave the apprentices any time to prepare or revise. Let alone defining the examination scope or highlighting key points. Key points?

Everything you’ve learned is a key point!

All at once, the first-year newbloods were wailing in despair.

No one ever mentioned the existence of midterm exams to them.

Even those newbloods who have actively socialized and joined various small groups, they did not learn about this from their senior newblood peers within the same groups.

It seemed that from the college management to the senior newbloods, withholding information about the midterm exams was a common understanding.

Not even a single word appeared on the “forum”.

They intended to launch a surprise attack.

What they wanted was the panic and wailing caused by the sudden attack.

As for Link, he handled it calmly and faced it head-on.

Those who studied diligently usually are not afraid of exams, they just care more about the results.

Those who didn’t study seriously are the ones who fear exams, but they don’t care much about their grades.

That’s how it is universally, since ancient times.

These past few days, Link has been considering more on how best to utilize the 87.5 Standard first-grade magic stones he had on hand. They should not only provide a certain level of safety for the present but also be of help in the future. After several visits to the Life Services Building, collecting some information from the “forum”, and researching many documents in the library, Link has finalized his plan.

He bought a vest, a pair of boots and a cloak.

The vest is a magic tool, the most expensive one. It has two sets of rune enchantments, offering defensive strength equivalent to ordinary First Ring defense witchcraft.

Key areas of the human body are the head, chest and abdomen, groin, and finally the limbs.

With limited finances, it’s impossible to be fully armed.

After considering, priority was given to protecting the chest and abdomen, which are the largest and most easily targeted areas.

The other parts will have to be addressed gradually in the future.

Just like this, Link spent a total of thirty magic stones!

The thing is good, the downside is that it’s too expensive.

Both the boots and the cloak are Rune Objects, together they cost eight magic stones.

The functionality is good, and they are value for money.

The boots have short-term levitation and acceleration capabilities, suitable for engagements and necessary advances.

The cloak has optical camouflage capabilities, suitable for concealment, ambush, and necessary advances.

Link also spent two magic stones to repair, upgrade, and refill arrows for the spell-breaking sleeve crossbow.

The sleeve crossbow switched from single-shot to multi-shot, the firing speed increased, it now has sound suppression and stealth features, and the trigger mechanism was changed from mechanical to both mechanical and mental triggers.

The crossbow arrow reserves greatly increased to fifteen arrows, sufficient for three rounds of multi-shooting.

Why not buy another sleeve crossbow?

Because this sleeve crossbow was bought with the money given by Mrs. Grande, it holds sentimental value.

In addition to equipment, Link also meticulously selected the witchcraft, before making a decision.

For the Zero Ring Wood System witchcraft, the first choice is Thorn Entanglement.

Because it is the beginning of the thorns series of witchcraft. Above it, the First Ring witchcraft has Thorn Killing, the Second Ring witchcraft has Thorn Overgrowth (group attack), the Third Ring witchcraft has Thorn Heaven and Earth (extensive range witchcraft, balancing control and attack, and has some field features).

The next choice is the Withering Spell.

It can quickly wither and damage plants, which can be used for research and experiments. It is also a potent spell for combating other witch’s wood system witchcraft.

The final choice is the Leaf Arrow Spell.

This is an offensive spell, which attacks with the invisible power of flying leaves with a simple gesture.

Unfortunately, though it has high concealment, its attack power is limited.

But it can be used barely.

The first choice for Zero Ring water system spell is the Water Ball Spell. This spell is the beginning of a series of spells. Not only does it lead to the First Ring spell, the Second Ring spell, and the Third Ring spell, but it can also derive Zero Ring spells such as the Water Arrow Spell and the Water Blade Spell.

The drawback is the limited attack power, but it has strong plasticity.

The secondary choice is the Purification Water Spell.

Its function is straightforward – to purify water.

Whether it is natural water or water condensed from witchcraft, there are impurities and it is not pure.

Harmful germs are impurities, beneficial minerals are also impurities.

The Purification Water Spell can settle impurities and produce pure water.

It not only meets many experiment needs but also guarantees survival in a crisis.

The last one is the Water Shield Spell.

It’s called a water shield, but it’s actually a flowing circular water curtain, using the lateral impact and longitudinal lag of water flow to defend against attacks.

The defense strength is limited, but it is better than nothing.

The total cost of the three pieces of equipment and the six Zero Ring spells is

70 Magic Stones, with a remaining 7.5 Magic Stones for emergencies.

There are just 10 Magic Stones that can be used to charge the system and draw krypton gold cards.

After purchasing the Magic Blueprint Scroll from the Witchcraft Trade Center, Link returned to the dormitory, then summoned out the system.

Recharge completed.

“On God’s Body!”

Link chanted loudly in his mind, stacked a buff onto himself and drew cards for the third time in a down-to-earth manner.

[Link Grande

Draw Card Times: 0 (100 standard first-level Magic Stones)]

Just when I’m sleepy, the pillow arrives.

Link had just purchased the Magic Blueprint Scrolls for the Six Level Zero Ring Witchcraft, and was worrying about finding free time from his busy schedule, to learn and practice new witchcraft.

As the professor of spell casting studies at Hogwarts School of Magic and the dean of Ravenclaw College, Philius Flitwick’s accomplishments in spell casting, from theory to practice, are at the top.

Now with “Philius Flitwick’s Talent for Spellcasting”, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance Link’s qualifications for learning and using Witchcraft, thus shortening the time and increasing the power.

Link used this Talent Card without hesitation.

In an instant, things felt different.

His understanding and mastery of the two Zero Ring Witchcrafts he possessed was immediately raised a level.

If the understanding and mastery level of witchcraft is divided into: Introduction, Proficiency, Mastery, Perfection, Breakthrough.

Previously, Link was only proficient.

Now he has reached the mastery level.

He believes it won’t be long before he can perfectly implement the Secondary

Misty Rain Technique and the Birth Induction Technique.

These Magic Stones are worth the expense!
