Chapter 281 Changes, Unexpected Gains, Resonance Level Three Stages, Burning Resonance Method!
The banquet has ended.
Ian watched Icemark's departing figure with a touch of melancholy.
"I never expected it to be resolved so easily."
He shook his head, recalling the conversation he had just had.
With just a few words, the conflict between the two chambers of commerce was resolved, and cooperation between them was facilitated.
Of course, he also paid a price.
"Five units of water crystals."
Ian thought to himself that this was enough for him to promote Shuimu Tianhua to the level of an expert.
He naturally couldn't refuse.
But this also shows the core position.
Before this, he had never heard of Ice Mark, but now, having only advanced to the core level, he immediately felt the difference, and the gap between them was self-evident.
"That's the core!"
He sighed inwardly, realizing he still had a lot of assets to deal with!
Thinking about this...
His steps became lighter.
the next day.
Ian went to the main courtyard again.
However, it wasn't the square from last time; instead, we arrived at a rather vast area to the east.
"Star Palace!"
Ian looked at the vast area in front of him, his eyes gleaming.
The core wizards have their own dedicated area for studying, which is the area in front of Ian.
They will also be holding classes here in a few days.
Of course, he's here today to collect his benefits.
Soon, he arrived in front of a building and saw a wizard approaching him with a smile.
"Lord Ian, we have prepared everything regarding the core matters you requested, including resources, etc."
"Can."
Ian nodded.
The wizard in front of me is named Wu Feng, a wizard at the late stage of the first ring. He is not a core member, but an administrator in the Star Palace who is responsible for the daily and various benefits of the core members.
It is almost independent of the college system and is specifically responsible for the core.
soon.
The two arrived at a very large room.
Wu Feng produced a variety of prepared terms and documents.
After receiving the Moon Dew and Purification Potion, Ian chose Water Crystal as the top-tier resource for the first level, since he didn't lack resources for either the Silk Net or the Meditation Method at the moment.
"Next is the selection of resources. Please take a look, sir. These are the resources that can be selected at present."
Wu Feng pushed a list in front of Ian.
Ian immediately became interested, after all, this was the main attraction.
Resources that can bring him tens of thousands of magic stones in revenue each year must be carefully selected.
finally.
After weighing the pros and cons, he chose a hundred acres of top-grade first-tier magic field.
For Ian, these resources can be directly leased to the school and then operated through the Bayes Chamber of Commerce, which would increase his profits by another 10% or 20% each year.
As for the new house.
Ian quickly gained access to house number ten.
"You can also choose a personal servant who will serve you exclusively," Wu Feng continued.
The next second, several servants came out from the side door.
Needless to say, the male witches were all beautiful and had excellent figures.
What surprised Ian even more was that these people's spiritual energy had all reached the mid-stage of the first ring.
One ring.
He is considered to have some value among the members of the academy.
But here, the academy is actually used to serve as the core's exclusive servants.
Next, Wu Feng handed Ian all the information about his assistants.
After thinking for a moment, Ian chose one of the witches who was fairly good-looking and had decent abilities.
"Beatles Burns, serving adults."
Beatrice maintained her composure perfectly, smiling as she bowed to Ian.
Ian nodded.
Anyway, he's just a service wizard, so as long as things seem plausible on the surface, that's fine.
The other servant wizards lined up to leave, and several of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone knows that Ian rose to the top among the wizards of the Four Symbols Academy through luck, and that he is an alchemist with only average talent. Naturally, it would have been better for him to be chosen by the other core members.
It's just a pity for Beatrice.
I wasn't very lucky.
"From today onwards, this will be our home."
-
At the ridge of the Four Symbols Branch Academy, Ian was surrounded by several servants, who stared blankly at the wizard tower in front of them.
Despite having longed for it for so long, he was surprisingly calm when he finally arrived.
On the contrary, Fain, Sherry, and the others on the side looked quite excited.
Enter it.
Ian sensed the elemental concentration and found it to be comparable to a top-tier meditation pool in the outside world.
"And it seems to be connected to the magical branch of the Four Symbols Academy."
Ian's eyes flashed, and he immediately saw the reason for the high concentration here.
"The concentration varies in different wizard towers, probably because of the amount of magic power connected and guided."
Ian glanced at the other wizard towers in the distance, his mind racing.
Ian had only been inside a short while when he heard a knock on the door.
I opened the door and took a look.
The person standing before him was also a core member of the Four Symbols Academy; Ian remembered that he was seventh back then.
"The Wizard of Theo".
Theo, the wizard with short brown hair and a beard, spoke in a low voice.
"I live right next door to you. We'll be neighbors from now on."
Theo said with a smile.
"Thank you, thank you. Please come in and have a seat."
Ian immediately extended an invitation, noting that this person wasn't one of the people who had followed Ivan back then.
Sherry and the others immediately went to prepare.
Soon, a simple dinner party began.
Theo also stated his purpose at the meeting.
"I'd like to make a few minor modifications to a magical artifact." Ian looked at the staff in front of him, gave his assessment, and thought it was quite simple.
Actually, for Ian now, the rewards for these kinds of missions aren't very high, but those that don't require much effort and offer high rewards are still worth taking on.
He is still quite lacking in resources.
Although he's not short of resources for now after advancing to the core level, he still needs to think about the future. Advancing to the second ring will definitely require a large amount of magic stones, so he should save up more.
Moreover, it also gains a core of friendliness.
"Can."
Ian agreed.
"Then thank you, junior." Theo was very happy.
After all, Ian's alchemy skills are among the best in the first ring.
Another day.
By this time, Ian had already taken care of everything.
Then I received two more invitations.
One letter came from the Tieshan family, and the other from Gangna.
Ian naturally went to the first one first.
Because of what happened with Nicole, he already had a general idea of what had happened.
-
All the terms and conditions of the contract are clear.
"The other resources are worth about five thousand magic stones per month, but they can provide half a share of wind attribute core resources per month, and the cost is the same as before."
Ian nodded in agreement.
Although he doesn't need the core resource of the wind attribute for the time being, he can find someone to replace it, so it's very valuable.
"And there's an event coming up soon, I don't know if you'd be interested."
Gunnar looked at Ian, who seemed to have read the contract, and while speechless at his daughter, he still asked a question.
"Activity?"
Ian looked up.
"Recently, some foreign wizard families and forces have been quite unruly. This time, the Academy's review department, in conjunction with the City Hall of Elements, is preparing to deal with a batch of them in three days. One of them, called the Iron Merchant Guild, seems to have some conflicts with your forces," Gunnar said.
Chamber of Commerce?
Ian's eyes flickered. Wasn't this the same force that had clashed with the Bayes Chamber of Commerce before?
"You don't need to lift a finger, but you can participate and get a few things in return."
Gangnado.
"I'm willing to join the adults."
Ian nodded.
He understood that this was a favor that Gunnar was offering him.
There's really no need to refuse something that's purely beneficial.
"Can."
Gunnar nodded.
Then Ian also went to the Iron Mountain family.
He was received by the family's third elder, and the terms were quite reasonable, so Ian accepted them without hesitation.
In the blink of an eye.
three days later.
-
Ian stood by the roadside, wearing the robes of a core wizard.
In front of him was a chamber of commerce, where the academy's review department was pulling out wizards one by one, the strongest of whom was almost half-elemental.
"The Iron Felt Merchant Guild has violated the rules of the Elemental City. We are apprehending the guild's core members."
A wizard from the review department first came to Ian, then whispered a few words, and then went to the roadside and spoke loudly to the wizards watching around him.
Everyone then realized what was going on.
One wizard even looked delighted, clearly indicating that these foreign wizards had a significant impact on the City of Elements recently.
A while later.
Ian entered the Chamber of Commerce's secret vault.
"Lord Gunnar said you can choose three items."
The semi-elementalized wizard from the review department said to Ian.
I was a little annoyed, but since this was a key player, I could only put up with it.
Ian naturally noticed it.
But I couldn't be bothered to pay attention.
He glanced at the secret vault in front of him and then began searching.
"I didn't expect to be so lucky; there are actually water crystals here."
Ian looked at the nearly seven or eight units of water crystals in front of him with some surprise.
With these, plus his recent gains, he can at least push Shui Mu Tian Hua one step closer to the master level.
"This one is also good."
Ian glanced at a small flame burning on the wood.
A strange object.
It can burn away impurities in spiritual power, and its benefits to wizards are self-evident.
"And this!"
Ian ultimately chose a book that recorded the Iron Felt Family's inherited meditation method.
It wasn't particularly useful to Ian, but he had a vague feeling that there was something else inside, so he chose it.
They quickly returned to the Wizard's Tower.
Ian tore open the book's cover and saw a thin sheet of silver paper.
"A treasure map."
Ian was taken aback.
Moreover, the treasure seems to be located in the White Stone Mountains, with a sign indicating it is the treasure trove of a second-circle fire-attribute wizard.
"interesting."
Ian shook his head, but the map explained why they hadn't taken it: it was guarded by a semi-elemental creature.
"Maybe we can give it a try once we've achieved semi-elementalization."
Ian shook his head.
I put it away, but no matter what, it was a huge gain.
"Then it will be after I've also become a semi-elemental being."
He shook his head.
But this involves the issue of resonance, which he needs to understand quickly.
"Tomorrow should be the start."
Ian's eyes flickered.
Tomorrow marks one week, and as previously mentioned, the core members will officially begin their classes.
the next day.
Ian headed to the Star Temple area.
"Today, the Dean is talking about resonance with the Earth Ring, and the core faculty is indeed different."
97
Ian looked at the message Beatrice had sent him in advance and already knew what was going on.
After the core, every now and then a great wizard would come to explain some knowledge to help the wizards better understand various aspects. There were even some management courses included. It can be said that they were being trained in all aspects.
soon.
He arrived at the Star Palace and eventually entered a very large room.
By this time, there were already quite a few people present, mostly core members from various departments.
-
Core structures, rarely seen on ordinary days, are readily available here.
Ian couldn't help but sigh.
The seating is also carefully arranged, roughly divided into three areas.
From front to back.
The first area is basically occupied by the top students and second-in-commands from each college.
The middle area is mostly occupied by the top three seats and the middle seats.
Next are the middle three seats and the last seat.
It seems to be quite a coincidence that wizards of different levels are located in different areas.
"I just don't know if the only difference is the seating."
Ian's eyes flickered.
In the pauses of thought, the other core ideas also came one by one.
This included Ian's acquaintances, with whom he exchanged brief greetings.
A while later.
The Dean of the Earth Ring has arrived.
Lachlan Davenport, an earth elemental wizard, exuded an aura that made the entire space seem heavier, as if looking at him was like facing a mountain.
"I only have one topic to discuss today."
"That's about elemental resonance," Lachlan said calmly.
"Elemental resonance refers to the degree to which a wizard's mental power, once it reaches a certain level sufficient to slightly interfere with reality, resonates with the elements."
"At the same time, only when your elemental resonance exceeds 85% and your perception of the elements is high enough can you attempt to break through the second ring."
Ian listened carefully.
I finally understand what this elemental resonance is all about.
So how do we improve?
And how do we come to understand it?
Ian's eyes flickered, and then he heard Lachlan continue speaking from ahead.
"Elemental resonance is divided into three stages. Generally speaking, when a wizard reaches the third crystal level, he can start to try to feel elemental resonance. Generally, their resonance level will be between 20% and 30%, while the fourth crystal level usually reaches 30% to 40% at the beginning."
"Therefore, wizards define the first stage—the induction period—as 40% to 60%."
"Sixty to eighty percent, the resonance zone."
"Eighty percent to one hundred percent is the deep resonance zone. Usually, once a wizard reaches the deep resonance zone, he can try to break through to the second ring. However, most wizards will not rush to do so, because the higher the resonance level, the greater the success rate of breaking through to the second ring."
"There are three ways to increase resonance. The first is to increase mental strength. The stronger the mental strength, the higher the resonance between the wizard and the elements will be. The second is to go to areas with extremely high elemental concentration and deeply feel the elemental resonance. Core disciples have their own exclusive resonance pools. The third is to cultivate the corresponding wizarding knowledge and various secret techniques. Core disciples can choose to learn these."
"The third option is also my top recommendation. It's more stable. The first option is the foundation, and the second is a supplement. Of course, you can also use some targeted medicines and rare treasures, but that's another matter."
The knowledge related to spiritual practice!
Ian breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not a big problem anymore.
"There is also a special place in the Star Palace to test resonance, which new core players can check out."
Lachlan continued speaking.
Then he began to explain various issues related to the resonance period, continuing all the way to deep resonance.
The wizards below, even the chief ones, listened carefully; this was something they now needed to consider.
After class.
Ian went to the testing area.
"Fire 39%, Wind 39%, Earth 39%, Water 30%."
Ian looked at the data, his eyes narrowing slightly.
His resonance level, except for the water element, is only one step away from the sensing threshold, and his four crystals are not yet complete.
That's normal, after all, they didn't learn so many elemental spells for nothing.
"So the next step is to choose a spell that enhances resonance."
Ian took a deep breath.
soon.
He arrived at the knowledge area of the Star Palace, where there was a great deal of general knowledge, and even some knowledge of the second ring.
This also includes the knowledge they need to enhance elemental resonance.
What's even better is that this knowledge is completely free for those in the core field.
Considering that Ian had previously acquired some fire-attribute resources, he naturally chose a fire element resonance spell.
"This burning resonance method is of quite good quality among resonance methods, and the difficulty is also reasonable. Generally speaking, it is suitable for the sensing stage."
The wizard in charge was also a late-stage first-ring wizard, who completed Ian's registration.
Ian nodded and took the Resonance Technique Knowledge Crystal.
Return to the Wizard's Tower.
Ian began his studies.
"Sensitively perceive the fire element, imagine it burning..."
Ian gradually became immersed in it, and his mental power seemed to truly begin to burn like a flame.
A while later.
Basic skills on the panel.
It belongs to the top-tier category of the first ring. Regardless of its difficulty and effectiveness, the knowledge it contains certainly justifies this level.
Several days later.
Ian opened his eyes.
"The power of the flames has increased."
A flame burned in Ian's hand, radiating a bright light.
But he could sense that the power of this flame was at least 10% stronger than before.
Return to the Star Palace to test the resonance level.
The resonance level has indeed reached forty.
"Is this what elemental resonance is?"
Ian squinted, his breathing seemingly increasing his connection with the elements of nature.
"So the next step is to simultaneously improve my remaining mental strength and increase my resonance level."
He pondered.
These two things can be done simultaneously.
"That was all I was tasked with during my time in the core."
His gaze gradually hardened.
soon.
He also adapted to life in the core.
In the blink of an eye.
Six months have passed.
