Chapter 39

Frank put on his clothes and walked towards James. Seeing hope, his heart was filled with motivation. At this time, he did not even think about resting. He did not even mind spending time with James, whom he hated.

Another five days passed, and the research continued slowly. Frank could only take a limited amount of time each day, and the speed at which the two were constructing the meditation technique was even slower. Frank had only succeeded in drawing four runes, and James even needed the help of an amplifier to construct it.

Five days passed, and the shock brought by Adam gradually subsided. Everyone returned to their normal routine, but there was a piece of news that spread like wildfire. The examination in nine months was not just a written examination!

And it was also related to Adam.

In fact, many of Adam's batch of acolytes did not meet the requirements. However, because Moldo lost the war, and Monte Carlo took away almost all the acolytes in the Mage Continent, the Moldova College could only pinch their noses and bring back all the acolytes who met the requirements. This obviously did not meet the standards of the College.

This time, because of the high value of the Psychokinetic Meditation technique, The Fifth Element Holy Tower decided to reward Moldo with the Elemental Tower. The details of the reward were unknown, but one of the rewards was related to the location of the acolytes. This meant that in the next year, the College would recruit many high-quality acolytes, so the College decided to eliminate the unqualified acolytes through trials.

This decision caused a huge uproar among the acolytes. Trials were always accompanied by death. The acolytes, who had lived a stable life for the past few months, almost thought that the College was a paradise. They could become mages step by step. They never thought that after entering the College, they would have to fight for the right to continue living.

Some acolytes wanted to retreat and leave, but they obviously overestimated the morals of the mages. The official mages did not hesitate to reject their requests, and casually killed a few acolytes who had broken down mentally and were rude to them. At this point, everyone had accepted this bad news.

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy and awkward. The 'classmates' who had been in contact with each other for the past three months might become life and death enemies in nine months. This caused them to no longer trust each other.

Adam should be the last person to hear this news from the dean of the Moldo Mage Academy.

"Adam, Adam!" That afternoon, Eliot rushed to Adam's laboratory excitedly, knocking on the door and shouting, "Open the door! Good news!"

Adam was in the middle of his daily experiment when he heard Han's voice. He gestured for the two of them to go do their own thing and then went to open the door to see Eliot.

Eliot glanced around with his shifty eyes and clicked his tongue. "As expected of a genius apprentice, your first laboratory is already so big. Wow, I don't even have an energy fluctuation recorder in my laboratory!"

Adam blocked him and said coldly, "What's the matter?"

Eliot was already used to Adam's attitude. He did not mind and said, "Good news, Dean Victor personally summoned you. You're going to be rich, Adam!"

Adam knew that this should be the follow-up reward for Psychokinetic Meditation. This was indeed good news for the cash-strapped Adam. He could not help but smile. "This is indeed good news."

The two of them left the laboratory and flew towards the tower. Eliot chattered along the way. "It's hard to imagine that Psychokinetic Meditation was actually created by you. Do you know how powerful you are? From now on, I won't have to worry about not being able to directly obtain the precise measurement of potions! "

Adam asked curiously, "You've already completed the construction?"

Eliot was embarrassed. "Uh … Not yet, but soon! Now, all the senior acolytes are studying your meditation technique, but everyone is just using it as a reference. They won't completely change their specialization. After all, the most popular and authoritative one is still the 'Mage Armor'. "

Adam was not surprised. Just as he said, Psychokinetic Meditation was modified according to his own situation. Psychokinetic Meditation was, in essence, the result of quantitative change leading to qualitative change. It was not boastful to say that its requirements for innate talent were too high, and it was difficult to be suitable for everyone. Adam knew this problem, but he did not have the idea of modifying it based on universal adaptability. That would be too troublesome, and he did not want to establish a school.

Eliot said with some envy, "I've been in Moldo for more than forty years, and I've never been summoned by the dean alone."

Adam was curious. "Dean Victor, what level is he?"

Eliot said with admiration, "Level Four, just one step away from becoming a Hyperdimensional Mage!"

Adam was in awe. Going from an acolyte to an official Mage was a sublimation of life essence, and from a Mage to a Hyperdimensional, it was another sublimation. Dean Victor was a strong person who was on the verge of a second sublimation. Adam could not imagine how strong he was.

Eliot thought that Adam was nervous and comforted him. "Don't worry, as long as you maintain basic etiquette and don't deliberately offend the Mages, even if you say something wrong, the Mages won't care about it. Besides, I've heard that Dean Victor has a good temper."

Adam could understand this kind of thinking. It was like a human walking on the road. Apart from the perverted, most people would not deliberately block the ant holes they passed, unless the ants did not know what was good for them and climbed onto the human body.

The two of them landed at the bottom of the tower and walked into it. This was the first time Adam had climbed to the other floors of the tower. Along the way, the two of them did not dare to look around, but the thick mana around them still gave them a great deal of pressure. Unlike the acolytes who could communicate with non-elemental mana, every trace of energy here had a strong will of a person.

When they approached the top of the tower, Eliot stopped and said while panting, "The second last floor is Dean Victor's room. Only you can go up the rest of the way. Good luck."

Adam nodded at him. At this point, the amount of magic power had actually decreased. Instead, it was replaced by a field that could only be vaguely sensed using the power of the will. Step by step, Adam walked towards the top of the tower. After climbing up the last step, Adam realized that he was no longer in the tower. Instead, he had arrived at another unknown space. Just as he was feeling puzzled, a voice rang out, "Apprentice Adam?"

Adam was shocked. He could not sense the existence of the owner of the voice at all, but there was only one person who could speak here. "Yes, respected Master Victor The Mage."

In the next second, Adam sat on a chair that appeared out of thin air. He gathered his courage and raised his head. He found that Victor The Mage in front of him was unbelievably tall. The contrast made him feel out of place with the surroundings. It was a completely different feeling from three months ago. Just by facing him like this, Adam felt that everything in him was uncontrollably changing in a certain direction.

Victor The Mage felt Adam's doubts and kindly explained, "This is my real body. The one you saw before was just a clone. The energy field of my real body is too strong for you, but don't worry. You'll be fine for a while. "

Adam was shocked. Was this the strength of an advanced magician? Just by the weak aura that leaked out, he could assimilate low-level life forms. How terrifying!

"Long story short. The Moldo Hyperdimensional Mage and The Fifth Element Holy Tower have highly praised your modified meditation technique. On behalf of the tower, I've decided to give you a reward. " As he spoke, Victor The Mage placed a token, a materialized rune, and a contract in front of Adam. "With this token, you can read all the books in the library except for the first three floors. It's free."

The first reward was knowledge.

"Integrate the rune into your body. You can obtain a portable space of one cubic meter."

The second reward was a physical object.

"This contract, oh, little guy, I have to say that you're pretty good. Your wisdom has won you unlimited possibilities. Sign it. From now on, your meditation technique will be distributed throughout the magician's plane. Every time you read it, you'll get a share of ten units of energy stones."

The last reward was resources.

Adam signed the contract without hesitation. In his heart, he was once again in awe of the magician's world's protection of knowledge and the spirit of contracts. He knew that at least before he became an official magician, he wouldn't have to worry about energy stones. No matter what kind of research he did, what kind of path he walked, this constant income would be enough to support him.

"Thank you, respected Victor The Mage."

Victor The Mage said, "You deserve it. I didn't expect my luck to be so good this year. There's actually a genius like you among the acolytes. You've solved a big problem for me. Thanks to you, I've gotten rid of my awkward situation. I need to reward you, hmm … "

Adam didn't say a word. He didn't know what the big problem Victor The Mage was talking about was, but it didn't matter. A Level 9 magician's reward obviously wouldn't be shabby.

"It'll be it. If you're lucky enough, maybe it'll help you in nine months. "Victor The Mage decided.

A small black and red egg appeared in front of Adam. The egg emitted an evil aura from time to time. Adam picked up the egg and found that it was actually wriggling in his palm, as if it was trying to invade Adam's body.

"This is?" Adam asked doubtfully.

"I got the egg of an unknown creature from the Abyss Plane during the Planar War. When it matures, it'll probably have the strength of a Level 7." Victor The Mage explained.

Adam felt as if he had received a treasure. He didn't expect to get such an unexpected reward. That was a Level 7 egg, which meant that he had a companion that could grow to the level of Mage Black while he was still an acolyte.

Victor The Mage handed everything to Adam and waved his hand to send him off. "Little guy, you have to go. I wish you good luck in the trial in nine months. "

Another space-time shift occurred, and Adam was involuntarily swept away. When he regained consciousness, he found himself outside the tower. The four rewards were all floating around him. He shook his head to get rid of the discomfort. At this moment, Eliot's voice sounded. "Looks like you've gotten a lot, my friend. Let me see what these are!"
