Chapter 85 Huge Gains, Second-Class Wizard Apprentice - Ian
In the blink of an eye.
Several days have passed.
Hal's death gradually brought the story to a close.
Ian left the school quietly and took Hal's belongings.
Most of the items were damaged by the magic, with only one spatial ring remaining undamaged.
It took Ian four days to wear away the mental imprint on it before he could finally open it.
But when Ian opened it, he was stunned.
"Wait, so many?"
The storage ring, measuring three cubic meters in size, contained twenty mid-grade magic stones and three to four hundred low-grade magic stones.
And that's not all.
There were various potions, even intermediate potions like energy potions, numbering around thirty or forty bottles.
There were also various other potions used in combat, such as stamina potions and antidotes, each in bottles numbering twenty or thirty.
"This isn't the amount a normal wizard should be carrying."
Ian looked at the potions and magic stones.
They realized something was wrong.
Even if Hal is a senior apothecary, he doesn't need to store so many magic stones and potions.
This is not at all like the reserves a mid-level wizard should have; it's more like what many wizard apprentices would use.
"Wait, there are many?"
Ian's eyes flickered.
I thought of the Blackstone School wizard I found at the market a few days ago.
If that number is about right.
Of course, this is just speculation and has no basis whatsoever.
But as soon as the idea popped into Ian's head, he couldn't help but consider the possibility of it.
If that's true, doesn't that mean Hal also betrayed the school?
"Hare is under Doug's command, so could there be a problem with Doug?"
Ian frowned.
Doug and Ian don't get along. In fact, even after Hal was dealt with, Doug has always been a potential enemy of Ian.
"Let's find a way to report them!"
Ian decided.
Whether it's true or not, let's report it first.
However, this time the gains were indeed significant.
"I have enough magic stones to buy resources for at least a year."
Ian remarked with a sigh.
His need for magic stones isn't too bad, but who wouldn't want more of these things?
At least it can guarantee that he can make progress at a leisurely pace.
It can reduce a lot of unnecessary activities.
Of course, the storage ring also contains not only magic stones and potions, but also some rare magical plants and information about some potions.
There was virtually no witchcraft involved, which didn't surprise Ian, as the school maintained quite strict control over this area.
Knowledge is essentially one-time use and is not allowed to be disseminated. If discovered, not only will there be huge fines, but the student may also be expelled from the school of thought!
"It's a pity that this ring can't be sold, otherwise it would be worth at least several hundred magic stones."
Ian looked at the spatial ring and felt a pang of regret.
The space was three times larger than his, but unfortunately, its features were too obvious, so it could only be left for the time being.
Let's see if there's an opportunity to make a move later.
A few more days passed.
Ian secretly sent a whistleblower letter.
But it quickly disappeared without a trace.
Ian wasn't surprised, after all, he was the vice minister of the Potions Department, and it wouldn't be possible for him to fall from power because of a whistleblower letter.
That would be rather funny.
About four or five more days passed.
Ian went to the castle, demonstrated his second-class wizarding apprenticeship's spiritual power, and changed his brass badge.
He strode out of the castle.
Ian walked toward the Potions Department.
When walking on the road, a first-class wizard apprentice will give way to him, and servants will stop to signal to him.
Ian felt pretty good.
Soon, he arrived at the Potions Department and happened to run into Granger at the entrance.
"Ian!"
Granger greeted Ian, but his eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "You've broken through to the second-tier wizard apprentice level?"
"Just broke through."
Ian nodded.
"Not bad, it's time for a breakthrough."
Granger looked pleased.
Considering Ian's talent, he's actually pretty much there.
Even so, breaking through to the second-level wizard apprentice level is still a very important thing for a wizard.
Especially within a school of thought, this signifies a further elevation of one's identity.
"Come on, I'll take you to see Minister Vivian. She'll definitely be happy." Granger pulled Ian along and headed upstairs.
Along the way, people saw the two of them.
They also immediately noticed the difference in the badge on Ian's chest, and everyone looked on with envy.
That's a second-class wizard apprentice!
The training sequence is far beyond their reach, but second-class wizards are people they can see frequently.
And you can feel that huge change even more.
Soon, Granger led Ian to Vivian's office and knocked on the door.
"Enter!"
As always, decisive.
Granger pushed open the door and entered. Vivian was still sitting behind the table not far away, and she looked up.
She glanced at Granger, seemingly wondering why he was so happy.
But then he saw Ian behind Granger, and the bright badge on his chest.
"Ian, you've advanced to the second-tier wizard apprentice level?"
Vivian jumped to her feet, her eyes shining.
"I was just promoted a few days ago, so I haven't been to the department these past few days!" Ian nodded.
Congratulations!
Vivian stepped out from behind the table and looked at Ian with a sigh.
Ian was already a mid-level pharmacist a long time ago. Once he becomes a second-level pharmacist, he can become the head of a large laboratory like Granger's, Victor's, or Hal's.
This also means that she has gained another truly useful person under her command.
"I've invited Granger and a few others to dinner at my house tonight. Why don't you come too? Is it convenient for you?" Vivian said.
"Hehe, Minister Vivian invites everyone to get together every few months."
Granger said from the side.
Ian was somewhat surprised, because he really didn't know this. Although he had advanced to the training sequence, he had never seen Vivian invite him.
Now that he's advanced to the second tier, Vivian has invited him to participate as well.
This clearly means that he has finally entered the inner circle of the Potions Department.
"That's convenient!"
Ian nodded.
night!
Ginkgo Avenue.
This is the area where wizards of the third rank and above reside, and it is here that wizard Hyde lives.
However, today's story takes place in a different villa.
Under the warm lighting, a long table was placed in the center of the room, with Vivian sitting at the front, flanked by Granger and Victor on either side.
Further to both sides, there were three men and one woman.
"Holly, Gray, Purdy, Aura," Vivian introduced, looking at Ian at the end of the table.
"Hi everyone, I'm Ian."
Ian stood up and introduced himself.
"Congratulations, Ian, on your advancement to a second-class wizard apprentice," Holly, a burly wizard, said with a smile.
"From today onwards, we're family. If you need any help, just let me know." Gray was older.
"Congratulations." Purdy, a man with long hair, was also all smiles.
"I told you you could do it, congratulations." Aura had red hair and captivating eyes.
The four of them congratulated Ian.
Victor looked at Ian with a smile on his face.
Who would have thought that the apprentice who was favored during his apprenticeship would eventually reach the same position as him?
"Let's all raise a glass!" Vivian suggested.
The sound of clinking glasses rang out.
Ian finished his drink, dinner continued, and Ian undoubtedly became the star of the show.
This was also the first time Ian had experienced the enthusiasm of these people in charge.
He hadn't felt it for at least the past year, and even after becoming part of the training sequence, it hadn't been like that.
The chat content consisted of various messages from different schools of thought, including resource verification, connections with family resources, and even the division of some of the benefits.
These are all things that he, as a former first-class person, could not access.
During the joyful dinner.
Ian began to perceive the difference between first-class and second-class.
