Wizards are mighty.

Chapter 9 Magic
After completing the first two steps, in a sense, Vic is already a formal apprentice wizard.

Because this third step is a step that wizards must go through every time they advance.

According to the meditation method, the levels of apprentice wizards are divided into five stages from low to high, namely level one (wizard) apprentice, level two apprentice, level three apprentice, level four apprentice, and trainee wizard (level five apprentice).

Regardless of their aptitude, the quality and capacity limit of apprentices' magic power are the same at every stage.

If calculated as a percentage, the magical capacity of an apprentice wizard who is about to be promoted is 100%.

Moreover, this magic capacity has already reached its upper limit, and it is difficult to increase it further under normal circumstances.

The effect of qualifications determines the wizards' initial magic capacity.

低等资质10%、中等资质20%、高等资质30%、顶尖资质40%、完美资质50%。

The better your aptitude, the less time you will spend on breaking through your magic power capacity, and the faster you will be able to advance.

Of course, the difference made by qualifications is only significant during the apprenticeship period.

Once you become an official wizard, it is very easy to change your qualifications.

Top qualifications are easy to obtain, and perfect qualifications are not difficult either.

In fact, breaking through magic capacity has never been a threshold.

The real threshold lies in the sublimation of the soul between each level, which is the barrier that blocks countless apprentice wizards and formal wizards.

Taking a deep breath, Vic did not continue to study the subsequent twists and turns, but instead focused his attention on the content related to his current situation.

Since his aptitude is perfect level, theoretically, when his soul and consciousness become one and he becomes aware of himself, he will already have 50% of his magic capacity.

However, theory is theory, and in reality there are still many difficulties in absorbing magic power for the first time.

Especially since these magical powers are still stored in his soul, things could go wrong if he is not careful.

It’s just like when you were a kid learning to ride a bicycle in your previous life. You would fall if you weren’t careful at the beginning. Only after you become proficient can you turn it into an almost instinctive skill.

……

……

While Vic was trying hard to absorb the magic power, Phyllis had returned to her room.

Unlike the single rooms for wizard apprentices, the treatment of slaves was obviously much worse.

There were nine other people living in the same room with Phyllis, of course, all of the same sex.

"Hey, what did the wizard apprentice ask you to do?"

The female humanoid with scaly animal features swaggered up to Phyllis, patted her cheek, and asked.

"No...nothing. The master just told us to deliver food to him and clean the house every day. Don't...don't bother him with other small things."

Phyllis lowered her head and stammered.

They were slaves from the same ranch.

The so-called ranch is where wizards train slaves.

But the ranch they were on was very strange. Apart from teaching various knowledge and skills, there was almost no control over thoughts or other aspects.

Therefore, it was not uncommon for slaves on the ranches to form gangs and bully the weak.

Phyllis was one of the victims of bullying.

Among the most powerful bullies was the female humanoid in front of him named Ida.

She has a thin bloodline of the Moka Lizard Clan. Although the quality is very poor, it also gives her a physique and strength beyond that of ordinary people.

Phyllis, who was weak and cowardly, didn't dare to resist the bullying of these guys.

It is common to do heavy and odd jobs for them on weekdays.

Even if these people are not satisfied with something, they will vent their anger on her.

At the mildest, she was beaten and kicked; at the worst, she was forced to do something illegal, which made her suffer extremely cruel punishment.

"Did you seduce him?" Ida continued to ask.

"without……"

Phyllis shook her head in panic, but her behavior immediately aroused Ida's suspicion.

"Disgusting stuff, honestly!"

Ida's voice became sharp, drawing the attention of the other slaves in the room.

At this time, another slave who was pointed out by Vic also came to Phyllis, grabbed Phyllis's hair and pressed her face against the wall.

"No... that... the master doesn't like me..."

Phyllis's head was pressed against the wall of the room, and the slight pain immediately triggered some bad memories from the past.

She shuddered and whispered.

"what."

A sneer came from the slave who was pulling Phyllis's hair, and she let go and shrugged at Ida.

"Okay, Ida, it seems that our new master is not a pushy guy. I noticed before that he looked at us without any extra emotions."

"But it's fine this way. There's no need for us to provoke him. We just need to wait until the ship reaches the shore..."

"No, even this is not a good thing."

The female lizardman named Ida interrupted her with a gloomy face.

"We could have been freer on the boat."

"I always feel that this girl is harming us. Before, she brought that wizard apprentice to choose slaves. Who knows what they said on the way."

A ferocious look appeared on Ida's face, and he kicked Phyllis, who was curled up on the ground.

"I didn't say anything, please... wu... stop, stop hitting me..."

Phyllis begged for mercy in a mournful voice, but it had no effect. Instead, it made Ida's foot move even harder.

The other people in the room looked as if they were used to it, not caring at all about the one-sided beating happening before their eyes.

……

……

When Vic opened his eyes again, it was already evening.

The meditation went smoothly.

In just half a day, he had absorbed 10% of the upper limit of the magic capacity of a first-level apprentice.

If he maintained this progress, it would only take two days or even less for him to fill up his current magic capacity and become a true first-level apprentice.

But speaking of which, I seem to be a little hungry.

According to the booklet filled with rules, he could contact his slaves at any time using the card reader in the room.

Card reader wizard?

Walking to the table, Vic took a small device on the table and examined it carefully.

This small device is the so-called card reader, which is composed of a base and a piece of transparent material. It seems to be the same one used by the old man before.

It is not a touch screen, but is activated by magic and operated by mental power.

And just like the mobile phones in the previous life, Vic’s ID card is a “mobile phone card”.

When using it, you only need to place the ID card on the base and input a small amount of magic power into it to easily activate it.
