Diary of the Death Wizard

Are you really going to use the cat to repay your favor? Paul looked at his friend Nero disapprovingly.

Nero took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly, feeling his chest change from hot to cool.

He smiled bitterly, Paul, you know me, I am already thirty-five this year. Although there are people who can be promoted to official wizards at any age, if I cannot be promoted before the age of forty, my mentor will no longer support me. Me. In order to repay the debt, I will have to go to the practice institute to do the most dangerous energy-consuming work.

If a third-level apprentice wants to continue to be an apprentice in the lecture hall, or find a better mentor outside, it often requires a lot of magic crystals and resources.

But not everyone has a strong background and someone is willing to sponsor their studies.

In Sky City, wizard apprentices can obtain a large amount of resources and wealth if they sign a contract. But at the same time, if they cannot be promoted to official wizards before the number of years stipulated in the contract, they must go to the Institute of Knowledge or Practice to do the most dangerous energy-consuming work.

This is different from the people who applied for jobs in the two institutes. Many people who did energy-consuming jobs never came back. Even those who came back were as panicked as if they had narrowly escaped death.

But without signing a contract, most apprentices would have no chance to continue their studies.

Therefore, even though this contract has swallowed up the lives of a large number of apprentices, many people still come one after another to sign the contract every year.

Just for that little possibility of being promoted to an official wizard.

Because in Sky City, first-level and second-level apprentices can't live a good life either.

Those who are less than a third-level apprentice are not qualified to work independently, and they do not even have the right to give up this lifestyle.

Paul looked at his friend and could only remain silent.

If he hadn't accidentally had a daughter called Mina, he would probably have signed his name on the contract issued by the Institute of Knowledge.

For the sake of his daughter, he could no longer take risks, and he would forever lose the opportunity to go further.

He opened his mouth, but still didn't say the promise Sol had made to him a few days ago.

On the one hand, Saul may not like to see him giving up the opportunity to ask for help to others; on the other hand, Nero has been listening to Saul's classes, so isn't it because he failed to get promoted?

Paul closed his mouth and had a sullen face, looking like a terrible murderer who was ready to stab someone at any time.

Seeing Paul like this, Nero smiled instead.

You see, it's your appearance that makes others afraid to approach you. He patted his friend's shoulder, Don't worry, someone has recently worked out how to circumvent the 'Cat's Repayment' curse. I I heard that few people who have used it have had any problems. Moreover, we are already third-level apprentices and have certain resistance capabilities. You don’t have to worry too much.

Nero was comforting Paul, and at the same time comforting himself, I will tell you when I get a way to avoid the curse. Then you can try it, and maybe you will be promoted to an official wizard directly!

But Paul was not moved at all and shook his head, Forget it, nothing can happen to me.

He also has a daughter.

Now that Sky City is still under martial law, it is very difficult to get out of the city. He has not been able to grab a spot so far.

If something happens to him in Sky City, Mina...

He couldn't even imagine what would happen to Mina.

Seeing that the air pressure on his friend's body was getting lower, Nero could only shake his head, Forget it, I'll try it myself.

Conversations like the one between Nero and Paul also happened in other places in Sky City. It just happened mostly among weak people, and the curse didn't even cause new deaths, so it didn't attract the attention of the upper class at all.

But sometimes, when enough weak strength accumulates, it can ignite a prairie fire.

After the first trial connection, although Thor failed to find Peer's coordinates, he was sure that their research direction was correct.

Then the two parties got together to discuss the improvement plan, and Ophelia proposed a second try a month later.

Thor originally didn't want to delay it for so long, but Ophelia said that the mechanical heart needs to be repaired every time it is started, which takes almost a month.

But Saul always suspected that a month might just be an excuse for Ophelia to delay him.

There's just no way to argue with that.

After returning to the lecture hall, Nathan began to follow Thor's instructions and asked the attendants who were also forced to stay in Sky City to bring imitations of the white porcelain cat into the market.

The attendant is just an ordinary person, and everyone knows that he is definitely not the real mastermind behind the scenes, but because of this, no one knows that the man behind the scenes is actually an equally inconspicuous official wizard.

That's right, under Thor's one-on-one guidance, Nathan was successfully promoted to the first level of official wizard.

During this time, in addition to completing the tasks assigned by Sol, he spent the rest of his time studying desperately.

Because he doesn't know when Thor will leave Sky City, and when Thor leaves Sky City, I'm afraid no one will be able to guide him in his studies so accurately.

Therefore, Nathan wished he didn't even have time to rest and just wanted to improve himself as soon as possible.

Another week later, Thor received an invitation from the Academy of Knowledge for the second time.

But this time, after thinking for a day, Thor finally agreed to serve in the Academy of Knowledge.

At the same time, he also took this opportunity to secretly bring the white porcelain cat to Qiuzhiyuan.

Gradually, this legend of The Cat's Repayment, which was only spread among apprentices, also spread among low-level wizards.

For official wizards, cats' repayment of kindness basically cannot affect their research, but it can still bring some help occasionally.

Moreover, after people found a way to circumvent the curse that might drown people in the cat's repayment of kindness, its side effects can be ignored.

These white porcelain cats with rough craftsmanship gradually became a kind of inexpensive and high-quality witchcraft props.

Even some second-level wizards will use cats' repayment to increase the success rate of their experiments before conducting experiments with high uncertainty.

Thor still maintains the character of a first-level wizard in the Academy of Knowledge. He takes over the projects from the academy and gives them to Nathan, who has just been promoted. He only gives him a few words of advice when he is free.

And Nathan, who had just been promoted, had to face problems that he shouldn't face at this stage.

On this day, Thor had just handed over a report written by Nathan to the second-level wizard of his team when he was blocked by Wizard Ona at the entrance of the Academy of Knowledge.

Ona looked at the gate of the Academy of Knowledge behind Sol, and then at the wizard robe on Sol, and said with some resentment: Wizard Sol, if you really like the Academy of Knowledge, the Lord of the City can also arrange a deputy courtyard for you. A long-term position. Why hang around among low-level wizards?

There was no one else around Sol, otherwise he would have been surprised at how Sol knew the wizard who was directly affiliated with Bai Liuli Castle.

Sol shrugged and did not deliberately explain, This can be considered as confirmation of what I have learned.

Ona still can't understand that a third-level wizard spends all his time studying the topics of a first-level wizard. Isn't this a waste of resources?

However, high-level wizards generally have weird tempers. Before, Oona thought that Thor was a little abnormal. Now I see that he likes to pretend to be a low-level wizard, and suddenly I feel that the other person is indeed a high-level wizard, and anything is possible.
