Chapter 623: Chapter 399 Lightless Forest
The Silver Chamber silently unfolded, turning the ordinary basement in front of him into walls of copper and iron. Colin stepped in, and the iron door of the chamber automatically closed behind him, leaving not the slightest gap.
He first practiced the Knight Breathing Skill.
Red Fighting Aura surged continuously within him, causing the surrounding air to gradually oscillate like a boundless tide.
The Knight Breathing Skill he now practiced was far beyond the scope of any ordinary Knight Breathing Skill.
Not only was it vastly different in terms of motion and stillness, but also in complexity and difficulty.
The latest Breathing Skill was named by Colin as the Red Light Breathing Method. One word came from the color of the Fighting Aura within his body, and the other as a tribute to the first Knight Breathing Skill he practiced—the Sunlight Breathing Technique.
In terms of complexity and difficulty, the Red Light Breathing Method was not inferior to the Second Rank Hodgia Meditation Method he was currently practicing.
After completing a round of the Knight Breathing Skill, having adjusted his state to the best, Colin sat down cross-legged on the spot and began to meditate.
Before he closed his eyes, he glanced at the Golden Paper, where the Wizard Level column read "Intermediate Second Rank Wizard (48/100)."
About six hours passed, reaching the limit of his meditation. Colin gently opened his eyes and summoned the Golden Paper again.
However, he saw that the Wizard Level had already changed to 54/100, a full increase of 6 points!
’Indeed, the body and spirit are inseparable... especially the activation of Will Power, which also quietly increased the strength of the soul.’
Colin put away the Golden Paper, his face showing joy.
These few days, having just advanced to the Second Rank Knight, were a time of rapid strength growth.
Basically, every day he woke up, he could feel his body become slightly stronger, his Fighting Aura more condensed, and his Will Power stronger.
And now it seemed that there was another addition—his spirit was continuously growing!
The essence of Wizard training is the continuous growth and sublimation of the spirit.
For a Wizard to advance from the Basic Level to the Advanced Level in the Second Rank, it involves nothing more than increasing spirit and Magic Power, nothing too unusual or insurmountable.
Only when breaking through each major stage and needing to sublime the spirit does a fundamental change occur.
So now, with the growth of his Knight Cultivation, his Wizard Cultivation was also swiftly progressing along the fast track.
If he could maintain this pace, then in at most ten days, he would reach the Peak of Intermediate Second Rank Wizard and be ready to break through to the Advanced Second Rank!
Swoosh!
Stowing away the Silver Chamber, Colin walked out of the basement to the first floor.
Outside the window, the night had fallen, leaving only a few remnants of sunset glow, forming a broken evening scene.
Sitting on the spacious sofa in the living room, Colin took out a Knowledge Crystal from his Storage Ring and placed it on his forehead.
It contained information on a meditation method capable of reaching the Third Rank—the Hodgia Meditation Method.
It was also the highest-level Meditation Method he currently possessed.
’Soon about to be Advanced Second Rank... preparing to advance to the Third Rank...’
Colin sighed with mixed feelings, but more with concern.
The quality of the Hodgia Meditation Method was not considered high, and it lacked parts for Fourth Rank and higher.
Frankly speaking, unless absolutely necessary, he was not willing to recklessly use it to advance to the Third Rank.
But obtaining another Third Rank Meditation Method was truly difficult.
Colin set down the crystal, involuntary sighing.
"What’s the matter?" A familiar, cold voice came.
"Nothing much." Colin smiled as he looked up, greeting Shelley, "How has everything been recently?"
He had been concentrated on advancing to Second Rank Knight in the Wilderness Laboratory for the past few days and hadn’t seen Shelley in a while.
"Not bad." Shelley casually sat opposite Colin.
Renee promptly brought delicious pastries and tea at the right time.
"Recently during the spring planting, about thirty percent of the fields used the farming tools we developed."
"That’s quite good." Colin raised an eyebrow.
Thirty percent might not sound like a lot, but considering the vast land area of Roon Kingdom, it was a significant number.
In this country, even if the top nobles do not manage personally, they definitely possess a vast amount of land under their names.
The Golden Barley of Neustadt was not unwarrantedly famous.
"Speaking of which, members of the Law Enforcement Team from Neustadt City unexpectedly came to the Roon Kingdom today, led by someone from Yista School."
"For the Frost Phantom, right?" Shelley asked.
"Yes, at least that’s what they say." Colin was not surprised that Shelley already knew about this.
Chasai Commerce had become the undisputed number-one commercial organization in Roon Kingdom, naturally well-informed.
"Yista School has always wanted to completely control Roon Kingdom, and this visit is probably also for that reason behind the scenes," Shelley continued, revealing this secret to him.
"Why?"
"Because this is the Golden Barley of Neustadt," Shelley said,
"Perhaps many Wizards have forgotten that the food they eat every day still depends on those lowly serfs who grow it from the ground.
But among the Wizards, there are not only fools but also clever ones, and they have not forgotten this fact."
Colin slowly nodded; this indeed confirmed his previous thoughts. The enmity between Wizard Erwin and Huntington was definitely not as simple as Welber thought.
"The other night, within Neustadt City, all Wizards residing in the Zvo School perished while asleep," Shelley suddenly said.
Colin blinked slightly in surprise, "All the members of an entire School died?"
"Only the Wizards who were present at Zvo School that night," Shelley shook her head, "Zvo School is a small School, and their strongest Wizard is only Second Rank."
