Wizard: I can refine everything

Since Richard was only a wizard apprentice, the affairs of the Wizard Chamber of Commerce could only be handled by Joe Lord.

Fortunately, he also ran an alchemy workshop, so it was not difficult for him to establish a chamber of commerce.

The review of the academy was over quickly, and after confirming that Joe Lord did not directly help Richard, the matter was quieted down under the operation of Erics.

Due to the increase in shipments, Richard's accumulation of magic stones quickly recovered.

With sufficient magic stone supply, Richard's wizard grenade project progressed very smoothly.

The material of the grenade has been determined, and the spell model has been disassembled with Richard's efforts. What remains for the wizard grenade is to constantly change the design, and then continue to test, and finally come up with a most suitable design.

This is a long process, but Richard just has no shortage of time.

...

Test area.

"The 56th test begins."

Richard looked at the target in the distance and threw the black cylinder in his hand over.

This is the fifty-sixth wizard grenade designed by Richard. Its stability in isolating elements and its flexibility in stimulating have been greatly improved. If nothing unexpected happens, this design will be the final design of wizard grenades.

"Three, two, one!"

Boom!

As the countdown ended, the grenade exploded.

Richard squinted his eyes and watched the bright light bursting in the distance.

The annihilation of water and fire will cause intense bright light, which also has a certain degree of energy. Ordinary people may suffer serious burns after being exposed, but for wizard apprentices, this light is only a little dazzling.

As the bright light disappeared, Richard walked to the crater of the grenade. The originally solid hardened ground of the test area had a deep pit about one person high after the explosion.

"The energy dissipates too quickly, so it can only be regarded as a single-soldier weapon."

Richard shrugged and recorded the data in his notebook.

It's a single-soldier weapon. Anyway, the cost of this thing is not very expensive. The pure material cost is only about 100 magic stones. This is just Richard's preliminary research. If he is given enough time, Richard can still reduce the cost of this grenade through the rune array.

But that is definitely a research that Richard will do in the wizard stage. He is still a wizard apprentice now, so there is no need to waste this time.

"Richard!"

Just as Richard was recording the data, a voice came from behind him.

"What's the matter? Ellie." Richard said without turning his head.

"The news is confirmed." Ellie ran to Richard and said excitedly, "The dean mentioned last time that the exchange with the White Wizard Academy has been settled."

"Huh?" Richard was slightly stunned. After thinking for a long time, he remembered what the dean said on the day he entered the secret realm to explore.

Richard put the notes in his pocket, "Didn't the vice dean say that it might take the next ten years?"

"God knows, I heard from the teacher that the efficiency of the White Wizard Academy this time is surprisingly fast. In a few years, even the venue has begun to be built." Ellie hugged Richard excitedly, "And do you know what the reward is this time?"

"What?" Richard asked curiously.

"The reward given by the dean is to be recommended as a wizard!"

"What!"

Richard's eyes widened instantly. Recommended as a wizard? This kind of reward is a bit too tempting.

Ellie continued: "I heard that this exchange competition is held for the first time, and many things are tried, so the dean and the vice dean discussed and decided to increase the reward a little bit."

"Oh, so we are experimental subjects." Richard suddenly realized.

But experimental subjects are experimental subjects, and the reward of being recommended as a wizard really makes Richard excited.

"How long do we have?"

"Four years." Ellie calculated the time, "I heard that the bloody exam was directly replaced by the exchange competition."

Richard converted it according to the time. His current mental power is not far from that of a senior apprentice. It will take about another year to upgrade to a senior apprentice.

"Okay, there's still plenty of time. By the way, what is the specific format of this competition?"

"This... the teacher didn't tell you, you go ask Master Qiaoluode and see how much he knows."

Richard nodded, "Okay, I'll go ask the teacher."

When Richard arrived at the laboratory on the 99th floor of the Black Tower, he happened to meet Chax who was looking for him.

"Hey, junior brother, you've come at a good time this year!"

Chax patted Richard vigorously, and it was obvious that he had heard about the exchange competition.

"Haha, it seems that you, senior brother, have heard about it too."

"That's right, this news is going crazy." Chax pointed upstairs, "By the way, the teacher just asked me to find you, you hurry to the laboratory. He probably wants to tell you some inside information."

When he arrived at the laboratory, Qiaoluode saw Richard and called him to his side.

"You should have heard about the exchange competition."

Richard came to Qiaoluode and sat down.

"I heard that the final reward is to be recommended as a wizard?"

"Yes, that's right." Joe Lord nodded, then said dissatisfiedly, "Alex is such a stingy guy, he is so stingy with the exchange competition rewards."

"Stingy?" Richard was a little confused.

"Of course he is stingy." Joe Lord complained, "The winner of this competition will get the qualification to be recommended as a wizard, which sounds very impressive. But think about it carefully, can the person who can win this competition still fail in the wizard exam?"

"Uh... that's right." Richard reacted, and the person who can win the exam will not be bad in the wizard exam.

This submission is equivalent to giving the qualification for promotion to wizard in advance.

"Well, let's not talk about this. I called you here this time to tell you that the matter of the Wizard Chamber of Commerce has been preliminarily settled."

As he said this, Joe Lord handed a leather scroll to Richard.

"This is the Chamber of Commerce scroll issued by the Parliament of Truth. With this, we can legally do business with the Academy."

"That's great." Richard's eyes lit up, "Then when do we start?"

"Start? This is the first step to complete the establishment of the Wizard Chamber of Commerce!" Joe Lord glared at him, "Having the scroll only means that the Parliament allows you to exist, but if you want to do business, you must have a stable material channel, a stable sales channel, and a well-received product.

Although your teacher used to run an alchemy workshop, potions are not in my business scope. If you want to build these channels, you must start from scratch.

And focusing on potions can still be used during the apprenticeship period, but it is useless when you reach the wizard stage. If we want to do big business, we must come up with new potions, preferably ones that wizards can use.

These are all problems. Don't think about making a formal profit for one or two hundred years."

Richard scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

He thought things were too simple. The Wizard Chamber of Commerce was not a small business like him selling potions in the business district of the academy.

"Okay, you just need to know this news. Besides, Alex kept the content of this competition very secret, and I only got some vague information, which seemed to be a simulated battlefield or something.

Don't you have a girlfriend who is Susanna's student? Susanna should know more than me."

"Uh... Master Susanna doesn't know either." Richard said a little embarrassed.

"She doesn't know either?" Joe Lord was a little surprised but then returned to normal.

"If you don't know, then don't know. No matter what the competition is, improving strength and accumulating knowledge is the best choice."
