Moon Witch, embark on the journey!

"A first-level shadow ball that can attack a single target or a group of targets. It has a strong corrosive effect and is very effective against living creatures."

This magic is often used by vampires, and Luna has seen it many times.

"First-level corrosive poison mist is also mainly corrosive, but its range of action is very wide and it lasts for a long time."

This is specially used to slaughter large groups of weak people, and because it lasts for a long time and will not dissipate for a long time, it can be regarded as changing part of the environment. Therefore, it is sometimes very effective for wizards to use it to fight protracted wars.

There are additional annotations below by Kadir:

With the Corruption Potion, you can further expand its range at the cost of reducing its power. The formula is as follows...

Luna sighed softly.

Even for formal wizards, the range of group spells is generally only a hundred meters long and wide. It is quite difficult to completely destroy a large city.

This secret recipe enables a formal wizard to massacre a city in a short period of time. However, if this is really done, the consequences are often very serious.

"A first-level shadow cloak is a dark elemental protective barrier attached to the caster. Depending on the caster's strength, it can play a role in defending against spells to a certain extent."

Although it may not seem like anything special, most defensive spells are more important and expensive than offensive ones.

The last one is the Dark Finger, a first-level single-target spell with strong penetrating power.

After learning these four, you can basically build a most conventional combat system. Then learn the flying technique that wizards must learn, and you will be a freshly baked new dark wizard.

"Let's start with the dark type first. After that, ask Claire for a few templates for the ice type."

Although the Helit family has many templates for ice magic, including many second-level magic, Claire cannot lend them out casually. She needs to notify other formal wizards, and Luna will probably have to pay a symbolic amount of magic stones.

"Teacher Enissa also has a dark attribute and seems to be good at souls."

Luna has made up her mind to seek her guidance during the learning process.

It's a pity that a commoner wizard like Enissa doesn't have the original spell model. In the past, when she was learning, she had to pay to borrow it from organizations or certain forces.

Unlike level 0 magic, any organization strictly controls the spell models above level , and does not allow anyone to publicly disseminate them. Even hostile forces will work together to maintain this unspoken rule. After all, this is also a means to clamp down on formal wizards.

Want to learn? Get magic stones. Not enough magic stones? Make contributions to the organization. That's the process.

Luna was very lucky to be able to get several dark models for free and also purchase ice models at a low price.

"But these two are not my majors. They are just auxiliary means to cover up the truth."

Her real major was the special magic of the moon attribute.

The "Silver Moon Secret Book" records several first-level spells that can only be learned by those with the moon attribute and must be performed with the help of moonlight energy.

There aren’t many of them, but each one is incredibly effective.

137.Travel

"Did you get this from the vampires?"

Elvina carefully examined the vampire-style spell book and sighed softly:

"I can feel the love this vampire has for his family from these words."

"After all, they are enemies. I don't have that much sympathy."

The blonde girl just sighed a few words, and didn't seem to be sad at all. She turned to speak softly:

"Although both tend to corrupt life, the difference between Shadow Ball and Corrosive Mist is not the range of action. The key difference lies in the instantaneous burst and long-term maintenance. You need to consider this when learning..."

Because Elvina often came to visit, Luna would sometimes ask her a few questions about dark witchcraft. As a result, she could answer them one by one, and her understanding was unexpectedly profound.

I always feel that I am not as good as Anessa. Maybe it is because the mentor is better at souls?

"Well, I have a few more questions..."

With such a proactive teacher, Luna's learning progress was rapid. Claire also got the template for the first-level ice magic.

With Claire around, the Helit family agreed to sell it at a discount, and even hinted that if you are willing to join the family, you can give it for free.

But Luna didn't agree. She was Claire's friend, not a member of the Herlit family. There was a difference between the two.

She led a very regular study life, sometimes going to Claire for advice, and sometimes asking her tutor and Elvina. Even though she was studying two subjects at the same time, Luna's progress was quite fast.

After about four or five months, Luna had learned more than ten kinds of first-level witchcraft, and was almost fully qualified or even excellent.

At the same time, he had almost spent all his previous savings of magic stones.

In fact, many formal wizards only learn two or three commonly used witchcrafts at the beginning, and they study the rest while working. It may take more than ten years to build up their own witchcraft system and get rid of the status of a new wizard.

For someone like Luna who basically does not produce anything and only studies, the progress may be fast, but it is still completely beyond the means.

After all, she was also practicing first-level potions, and the materials were also very expensive. Not long ago, she had successfully refined a first-level Heart of the Vast Sea potion. This was an advanced version of the spirit power growth potion that she had used during her apprenticeship period.

Of course, it’s enough for Luna to use it herself, but she also has to consider leaving some for Claire and won’t sell it.

"Official wizards need to maintain the growth of their mental power and the progress of their mental power elementalization at the same time, which is really troublesome."

Only when both requirements are met can there be a chance to be promoted to the second level. Many top formal wizards are often lacking in one aspect.

Today, Luna received a long-overdue reward.

Because their elite team had killed a powerful vampire named Kadir, who seemed to be a secret force among the vampires, carrying a special treasure. When Kadir used that treasure in a fit of rage, it was like a reminder to the wizards, forcing the vampires to act in advance.

This is no small achievement.

At that time, the organization only temporarily waived the medical expenses of several apprentices, and the rest of the rewards would be issued later.

A tailor-made first-level alchemical item that can be modified according to their own wishes.

Due to the busy post-war affairs, it has been nearly a year since it was finally completed and sent out.

"We're finally here... If it had been in the secret realm, it wouldn't have been so dangerous."

Luna chose a pair of shoes.

This is a pair of dark blue short boots with dense and complex patterns on the surface. It feels thin and light, but extremely tough. It is made of the fur of some first-level monster.

"A first-level flying spell twice a day, and it is a specially enhanced version."

There is no doubt that air superiority is so important that all formal wizards must learn this magic. But the problem is that except for wizards who specialize in wind, the effect of others is very general even if they learn it.

The ice and dark magic that Luna learned did not have any convenient flying function at least at the first level. She herself also learned the flying technique, but even if she became a peak formal wizard in the future, she would not be much stronger than she is now.

Because the direction of the elementalization of mental power is wrong, there is no bonus.

"Having a first-level alchemical item like this is equivalent to a wizard specializing in wind using the flying spell. At least in terms of speed and air control, he will not lag behind others."

Luna took off her shoes, revealing her feet covered with a pair of black stockings, and put them on directly on the spot.

"feel good."

Up to this point, although the progress of the elementalization of mental power has just begun, Luna estimates that she already has a stronger combat power among the first-level wizards, not counting her innate witchcraft.

If you take into account the innate witchcraft, you won't even be afraid of the top official wizards, so you can go out and have some fun.

"It just so happens that I received a task from my mentor."

This was the first time that Enissa had given her a formal task. The previous ones were all tests and rewards. Considering that the instructor had helped her a lot in various aspects before, Luna would definitely not refuse.

"The mentor's hometown..."

Enissa was once a genius, and became a formal wizard at about the same age as Luna and Claire.

She was originally born a commoner, but because of her awakened bloodline, she was chosen by the wizards of the Dark Ring and brought in. After becoming a formal wizard for more than 20 years, her original family naturally received a favor and became a new wizard family.

"It seems like something went wrong in the family. My mentor is a bit busy recently, so he asked me to go take a look."

It is quite risky for an apprentice to go out and explore, but for a formal wizard to go out, there will be no accidents as long as he does not commit suicide.

"Come to think of it, this is the first time I've left the organization on my own."

After bringing all the equipment and packing her luggage, Luna was ready to set off.

Not far from the Dark Ring headquarters, there is a market with many wizard shops and businesses. Luna flew to the gathering point, showed her medal and entered smoothly.

Her outstanding appearance attracted some attention, but after feeling the aura of a formal wizard, no one dared to offend her.

Most of the people in the market were apprentices, and there were only a few official wizards. It was completely different from the headquarters where you could see a few at a glance, but this was the norm outside.

After arriving at an agency store, the shop owner who was a senior apprentice ran out and greeted respectfully:

"Excuse me, sir, how can I help you?"

"I want to rent a car to go to the southern part of the Principality of Dilu. What's the most convenient way?"

"Let me think... there is a business company that is going there soon and will leave today. You can accept the employment and go with them."

"Okay, call the person over to talk."

Even a real wizard can't fly all the way. What if he gets lost? And... how tiring would that be?

138. Robbery

The owner of the caravan quickly ran over to Luna. He was a high-level apprentice in his forties, still relatively young, but basically had no hope of becoming a formal wizard.

Seeing Luna's appearance, he showed a little surprise, then immediately straightened his posture:

"Sir, are you going to Zishan City in the south of the Principality of Dilu?"

"Yes, I heard your Chamber of Commerce is on the way."

This high-level apprentice named Foul Keen came from a family of an official wizard. He was recruiting guards to go to the southern part of the Principality of Dilu, but he unexpectedly waited for the arrival of an official wizard.

He took a deep breath and discussed with a nervous tone:

"Look, how about two hundred magic stones? If it's not enough, we can negotiate."

The cost of hiring a formal wizard usually starts at at least four or five hundred magic stones. If you want to fight with monsters or wizards of the same level, the price will increase several times.

After all, the journey is not long, and there is no danger in the four principalities after the war.

I'm afraid the caravan owner must be very distressed. He recruited a wizard normally but ended up with a formal wizard. Luna didn't want to make things too difficult, so she nodded and said:

"Okay, that's all. When can we leave?"

Fore was obviously relieved and said quickly:

"With you here, there's no need to recruit anyone else. We can set off now!"

At the edge of the market, a caravan had already assembled and had recruited a senior apprentice and three mid-level apprentices, all of whom came to meet Luna one by one.

"You all go ahead and do your work. I'll help if there are any problems along the way."

There were several enchanted luxury carriages in the convoy, which were specially prepared for wizard apprentices. When Luna arrived, she was directly invited to the most luxurious one.

Luna casually scanned with her mental power, but the apprentices felt nothing.

Many of the goods outside come from the surrounding areas of the headquarters. Because it has two secret realms, the Dark Ring headquarters has many special materials. In addition, there is no shortage of potion masters and alchemists at the headquarters, and the finished potions are cheaper than elsewhere.

Luna roughly estimated that the value was more than 3,000 magic stones. This was an amount that only a formal wizard could afford, and it was definitely not the assets of this high-level apprentice.

This time, because the distance is relatively short, the profit is relatively small. If Luna really asks for 500 or 600 magic stones, this caravan will probably make a wasted trip.

Although the caravan leader was only a high-level apprentice, he obviously had a formal wizard backing him. The formal wizards within the Dark Ring were basically members of the organization, and occasionally there were outsiders who had more or less connections with the organization.

So just be on guard against wild monsters and some apprentice bandits.

A caravan that can cross the sphere of influence of several large wizarding organizations is considered a truly big business, and must be managed by an official wizard.

"You lazy bastards! Get moving! The wizard wants us to set off early!"

Obviously, Forle was the owner of the caravan, but he was issuing orders in the name of Luna. The ordinary members and apprentices really fell for it, and they were all sweating as they prepared the goods, wishing they had more hands.

Soon the caravan set off.

Luna stayed in the carriage the whole time reviewing the first-level spell model and never did anything with it.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no chance to take action during the entire three-day journey.

......

Then the unexpected happened.

On the third day, they had completely entered the territory of the Principality of Dilu, and would reach their destination in half a day.

Luna was reading books in the carriage as usual, and she rarely showed her face except for coming down to eat occasionally. Even most of the ordinary members of the caravan only knew that there was an official wizard there, and they didn't even know whether she was a man or a woman or what she looked like.
