The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

Chapter 37
"opened!?"

Looking at the slowly opened black book, Sauron's eyes flashed with surprise.

He hesitated for a moment, suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and looked at the black book, which contained a lot of strange characters and patterns.

"Dark Talent! Necromancy School!"

Sauron's eyes flickered, and while flipping through the black book, he recalled what the skeleton had said before.

Judging from the information spoken by the skeleton, the reason why this black book can be opened may be because it has detected that it has the talent to become a wizard through some special methods just now.

Therefore, the black book will be opened automatically.

Flicking through the black book in his hand quickly, thoughts flickered in Sauron's mind, and a line of information appeared in front of him.

"Ding! Comprehension: The Sacrifice of the Dark Spirit!"

Looking at the gradually emerging information on the data panel, Sauron's eyes flashed with thought.

"The Necromancer Handbook!"

Sauron lowered his head and looked at the black book in his hand. According to the contents inside, the name of the black book was recorded.

As Fross speculates, this is a book about wizards.

To be more precise, this Necronomicon Handbook is the basis for the Necronomicon School to guide new apprentices on their wizarding journey.

It contained a meditation method called [Sacrifice of the Dark Spirit].

Only those with dark talent are qualified to practice the Dark Spirit Sacrifice, and only those with wizard talent can see the contents of the Necromancer.

As for those with non-wizard talents, forcibly opening the Necromancer, the consequences are unpredictable!

"Could it be that Orens forcibly opened the Necronomicon that caused him to fall into a deep sleep?"

Sauron stroked his chin with a thoughtful look on his face.

Afterwards, he shook his head and continued to look through the Necromancer Handbook in his hand. In addition to the Dark Spirit's ritual meditation method, there was also a lot of information about the Necromancer School and wizards.

A full half an hour passed.

Sauron put down the Necromancer Letters in his hand, and the light in his eyes flickered slightly. This book simply opened the door to a new world for him.

"Wizards are real!"

Sauron muttered to himself, a trace of excitement welling up in his heart.

The contents of the Necromancer have proved that wizards really exist, and indeed possess unimaginable power.

After comprehending the Ritual of the Dark Spirit, Sauron can be regarded as embarking on a wizarding journey.

However, the current him is not a wizard, not even an apprentice.

According to the records in the Necronomicon, before becoming an official wizard, apprentices are divided into three levels, from first to third level apprentices.

Among them, the first level apprentice is the lowest level.

But even so, only those who condense a rune can be called first-level apprentices.

"Rune!"

Sauron's eyes flickered slightly.

Through meditation, the wizard condenses the runes in the sea of ​​consciousness while improving his spiritual power, and then uses the power of the runes with magical power.

Mental power, magic power, runes!
For apprentice wizards, these three are the foundation of their own extraordinary power, and they are indispensable.

"Next, let's try!"

Sauron took a deep breath, and started to meditate directly according to the contents of the Necronomicon.

Relying on the help of the proficiency panel, Sauron easily comprehended the meditation method, but if he wants to improve the level of the meditation method and condense the runes, it still needs a long time of practice.

One night is fleeting!
In the room, Sauron slowly opened his eyes, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Is this magic?"

Sauron muttered to himself, after meditating overnight, he did not condense the runes, but a trace of magic power emerged from his body.

If runes are like fire, magic is the fuel!

If the flame wants to burn, fuel is essential!
After finishing the night of meditation, Sauron opened the data panel with a thought.

----------

The biggest change on the data panel, in addition to the sacrifice of the dark spirit, the spiritual attribute has also increased.

This is the hallmark of meditation.

Compared with knights tempering their bodies, wizards pay more attention to the improvement of spiritual attributes. Compared with the two, the latter is obviously more advanced.

Even, according to the description in the Necronomicon Handbook, the so-called knight breathing method was originally born out of meditation, and it is said that it is a practice method prepared by wizards in order to cultivate followers.

Moreover, if the knight's breathing method is cultivated to the extreme, runes can also be condensed in the body, but it is called the seed of life by the knights.

The knight's use of the life seed is equivalent to the apprentice's use of runes, but the difference is that the knight has no magic power in his body, so every time he uses the life seed, he can only consume his life force as a price.

Likewise, apprenticeships.

If the magic power in an apprentice's body is exhausted, but he still forcibly uses the power of runes, then the result will be that his vitality will be consumed in a short period of time.

Even, he died directly due to exhaustion of vitality.

"Let's condense a rune first!"

Sauron's eyes flickered slightly, and understanding the idea of ​​the Dark Spirit's Sacrifice could only mean that he embarked on a journey of wizards. If he wanted to become a real wizard apprentice, he had to condense his first rune.

……

Western territory, Baigu City.

Located in the study of the Lord's Mansion, Dover looked at the box sent from Night Crow City, his heart was burning with anger, his eyes seemed to be bloodshot.

"That little bastard, how dare he!!!"

Dover had a grim expression on his face, and the box in front of him was the head of Viscount Moron.

This was exactly the gift that Sauron sent to Lord Dover of White Valley City after he took back Night Crow City.

"Pass down the order and assemble the army for me!"

Dover stood up abruptly, gritted his teeth and said, "I want to crush Night Crow City and make the Swain family disappear completely in the Western Region!"

In the study, everyone was silent.

The death of Viscount Moron made Dover furious, and the vassals under his command dared not say anything at this time, only the bachelor Kafei shook his head.

"My lord, please calm down."

Ka Fei shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "In my opinion, under the current situation, it is really not easy for White Valley City to launch a war against Night Crow City."
