The Witcher: Son of the Planes

It has been a week since the last mission. Colin and Helen have examined what they have learned and realized their shortcomings.

Especially Colin thinks that his current attack strength is not enough, and his defense is basically non-existent. He still relies on the physical defense power of the knight's squire.

And Helen is a bit biased towards auxiliary professions. She has learned skills such as alchemy, pharmacy, and healing. Her offensive spells are not even as good as Colin's.

The two chose a mentor, but not all courses are taught. Wizards are about equal exchange. Although the academy has mandatory tasks for formal wizards and must regularly accept some students, the courses taught are really limited.

To make further progress in strength, either you become a real master and apprentice with the mentor and succeed in apprenticeship; or you spend a lot of merit points and learn whatever you want.

Helen and Colin have not yet shown the qualifications that make the mentors excited. They are just ordinary students among the mentors. Fortunately, they received a small amount of wizard coins last year, and finally have the possibility of choice.

After discussing with Helen, Colin decided to let Helen learn some variant water spells. One is the defensive spell Ice Shield. Only by doing a good job of defense can you be invincible; the other is Ice Cone, which is much stronger than Water Arrow in terms of attack strength.

The spells chosen by Colin were also strengthened. For attack, he chose the advanced spell Explosive Fireball of Fireball. For defense, he chose not a fire spell, but an earth spell Petrified Skin. This is the same skill that Marcus has mastered. The defensive power of this skill is still relatively reliable. Intermediate wizard apprentices can learn it.

Moreover, learning spells is conducive to the continuation of future skills. Colin can also learn its advanced version - Body Stone Skin when he reaches a high level; if he has the opportunity to be promoted to a first-level wizard in the future, he can also learn a more advanced advanced version - Body Shield.

The learning of four skills cost Colin and his partner 200 merit points, which is basically equivalent to the cost of studying with a mentor.

To learn spells, one must first master the spells and gestures to release spells, and secondly, to build a complete spell circuit.

These require continuous practice, and it takes a lot of time from being able to release successfully to being proficient in releasing.

Time passed in the study day by day. After half a year of hard work, Colin and Helen mastered the new spells proficiently.

During this period, Colin and Nora also maintained at least two gatherings a month. Occasionally, when Helen was happy, Colin could also enjoy the blessing of having two wives.

After mastering relatively abundant resources, Nora and Rose also successfully transferred to low-level wizard apprentices, but because they had to take care of the shop, the two did not enter the academy to study.

Nora majored in wood magic. In addition to taking care of the shop, she mainly studied healing, vine entanglement and vine shield. The effects of the latter two spells depend on the ability of plant seeds.

Rose majored in dark magic, but progress has been slow. She only learned the shadow fog, a means to hide herself in the dark, which is barely a defensive spell.

…

The connection between Victoria Islands and Grimmen Island has become closer. Victoria Islands, which was originally a member of the Grimmen Islands Alliance, has also added wizard courses in the academy on the main island of Victoria Islands after exchanging a lot of knowledge.

After fully considering the inheritance of the magician system and the mainstream development of wizards, the three giants of Victoria Magician Council, Fred and Urs, did not change their jobs and continued to devote themselves to the research of magic power, hoping to break through to the second-level magician in the future.

And the younger Oscar, after personally visiting Grimmen Island and seeing the power of the wizard system, successfully changed his job to a first-level wizard.

A letter came from Emerald Island, briefly describing the changes in the island. Earl Johnson has resigned from the principality and moved to Emerald Island with Terry.

Joseph and Sheryl live in Uxsu City. Since Joseph married Sheryl, he has changed a lot and become more mature and stable. This is also the reason why his father and uncle are relieved to hand over family affairs to him.

Thanks to the rich world resources of the wizard world and the output of the August family in recent years, the strength of the chief knight Alex has been further increased and he has become a quasi-level knight attendant; the butler Gandalf has also been promoted to a senior magician apprentice, and the family has added some low-level knight attendants and several low-level magician apprentices. The overall strength of the family is no longer an unknown small family in the Victoria Islands.

From the letter from the Emerald Island, I learned about the changes in the Victoria Islands. Although the letter also mentioned that the Victoria Islands also opened wizard learning courses, Colin and Helen, who have become accustomed to the environment of the Grimman Academy, did not go back and decided to stay here.

Not only is the wizard system here more complete, but more importantly, the strongest here is the demigod wizard Grimman.

Studying in the academy is boring and fulfilling. Although Colin learned about some of the major forces in the wizard world from the books in the academy, he only stayed on the surface and was not very clear about the disputes between the forces.

Although the entire wizarding world is united to the outside world, there are also conflicts within the world due to interests, but currently it is limited to the level below.

During the course of their studies, Colin and Helen suddenly heard that the academy had announced that a competition would be held in three years.

First, the competition will be held within the academy. Those with excellent results will be led by the academy's mentors to compete with other forces on the wizard world continent. The wizard apprentices who finally get a place will have the opportunity to gain the favor of the mentors and become real disciples. They will also get various resources needed to be promoted to the first-level wizard.

The students who heard the news were excited. Many wizard apprentices have been stuck at the advanced wizard apprentice for their entire lives and cannot break through.

Some chose to join the academy and contribute their last strength to the academy, which can barely be regarded as fighting for an opportunity for the descendants of the family.

Some chose to leave the academy and return to the family to reproduce.

After all, those who can be promoted to the first-level wizard can be said to be one in hundreds.

Since there is this opportunity, the minds of wizard apprentices have become active. The task hall is full every day. Some do tasks to hone their strength, and some do tasks for some rare resources and rewards.

The library inside the academy is also full of apprentices who buy books, just to stand out in the competition three years later.

Colin, Connie and others also had a small gathering at a tavern outside the city, all of them wanted to give it a try.

It just so happened that they all learned some new spells, and only through actual combat could they test what they had learned. Moreover, competition is also a kind of actual combat. It is not enough to just learn. They all agreed to find a few tasks to hone their abilities.
