Then, Ivan came to the library of the college. In the previous mission, he realized that he had many shortcomings, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of knowledge. Recently, he has been using meditation to remove the pollution of his mental power. It takes some time, so he can come to the library to calm down and find a way to increase the experience points of [Biology] and [Linguistics]. At present, [Biology] is only level 2, and [Linguistics] is only level 1, both of which have a lot of room for improvement. As for the others, the experience points of [Meditation] and [Curse], which are both level 2, have been increasing slowly, especially the latter, while the experience points of [Plane Studies], which is level 0, have no clue at all, anyway, the experience points are not moving. [Pharmacy: lv4 (926/1000)] Among all the subjects, [Pharmacy] should be able to be upgraded to the next level first, but it has to wait until he removes the mental pollution. "I wonder if Walban's words are reliable?" Ivan was not sure if he could really relax. On the way back, Walban took the initiative to exchange the secret seal with him and also revealed that the hunting team should not bother him again in the future and asked him to wait for his news. This is undoubtedly a good sign. The fundamental reason why the hunting team disliked him was Toins. It was really worthless to take the blame for Toins.
The library is an ancient building with vast books, but most of them are books paid by nobles from all over the world. The greatest value for apprentices is to increase their knowledge and enrich their experience. And it is free. When he walked into the library, he smelled a special smell of books. This is not his first time to come to the library. He is particularly impressed by this smell, which makes people unconsciously want to keep quiet for fear of disturbing the atmosphere here. He went straight to the bookshelf where books related to Tidal Island were placed. He saw many language books, both simple and in-depth. The latter were placed in Flying Fish Harbor. They were things that the nobles would rather hide in the attic than take out. Now they are casually placed on the bookshelf. There are also books on the ancient language of Gaoganda, the tidal language, and the Ferendo language. He took down a book about the tidal language, which had a new interpretation of this language. It originated from the language of the offshore sea tribe, which was brought to the human world by the centaurs. Not long after the centaurs left, the tidal empire covering the entire island was born. The ancient language of Gaoganda is indeed a language that humans have used since ancient times. It is a language that human ancestors summarized based on the shapes of things around them. The source of the Ferendo language is the language of the Winged People. On this half of the Moon Clamp Peninsula, there are more languages similar to the three languages. Most of them are branches of the sea tribe language, the Winged People language, and the ancient human language, or they are branches of the same branch. There are some connections between them, and they can be compared and studied. For example, Sang Ya language, Tuchel language, Kuidan language, etc. [Linguistics experience value +4] [Linguistics: lv1 (81/100)] Three hours later, when he left the library, his linguistics experience value increased by a few points. At the door of the library, Ivan received a message from Walban, bringing him good news that the hunting team would not disturb him again, and his face was lifted. "This Walban has such great power. It turns out that strength is status." He knew that the reason why Walban had such a status was probably, as Cody said, that his mental power exceeded 13 scales and he was a key apprentice of the academy. His high status made him more eager to improve his strength. The medium magic stone water should be put on the agenda earlier.
In the cafeteria, Ivan had just sat down when two figures appeared across the table. "Ivan, I haven't seen you for a few days." "Long time no see." The two who sat down without hesitation were Conley and Ed, two fellow countrymen from the Principality of Xiangmai. After so many days, the two have become second-class apprentices. Conley's aura is stronger and more mature than before. Ed has changed more. Only half of his left ear is left. It should be bitten off by some demonic beast, leaving an ugly gap. Unlike before, he is a little silent now. "You are a third-class apprentice?" Ed's eyes suddenly widened. When he sensed it just now, he immediately felt a strong pressure, just like when he faced other third-class apprentices. Hearing his words, Conley also looked at Ivan in surprise. It is not so easy to break through to the third-class apprentice. It is unknown how many credits it takes to go from the second-class apprentice to the third-class apprentice, and most of the credits require taking risks to complete the task, which is equivalent to risking your life. "I was a second-class apprentice when I entered school, and I broke through not long ago." Ivan nodded, "How are you doing recently?" "Congratulations." He said it lightly. Both of them knew the hardships involved. After all, the other's background was not as good as theirs. Compared with the second-class apprentices, the third-class apprentices have a different status and are more confident when speaking during missions. "Do you remember how many of us there are?" Conley paused for a few seconds and continued. "19 people." "Three people died, two died during the mission." Conley lowered his voice, "One is said to have died in the laboratory." Ivan understood. It seems that the man was unlucky and met a mentor with a bad personality. The wizards in the academy have different personalities. Some treat their disciples well, and some treat them badly. There are even some who don't treat disciples as human beings, such as Toins before. Didn't he have evil intentions from the beginning? He kept disciples in captivity as carriers of the curse power and never cared about the lives of disciples from the bottom of his heart. "It seems that things are not peaceful recently. There have been news of apprentices dying one after another." Conley said again. "Two people in our hunting team just died. The mission is unknown. The danger should be great. The famous third-class apprentice 'Wolban' in our team led the team. He is a potential wizard seed." Ed added. "I know that the enchantment team also participated and one person died." Seeing the two looking at him, Ivan explained, "I was also on the mission at the time. The details of the mission need to be kept confidential. Anyway, an unusual accident occurred." Hearing this, the two didn't know what to say. Such a high-end mission was involved. No wonder the other party could become a third-class apprentice so quickly. I guess he also survived a lot in the process. "Do you know Wayne, the 'fifth-level talent'?" "I've seen him once." "His team members have died one after another. Everyone suspects that he is being targeted by external forces. Don't team up with him to perform tasks, otherwise you will be unlucky. He is different. He is the focus of the academy and comes from a wizard family. He has a lot of life-saving methods at hand." The three chatted for a long time. It is not difficult to find that the death rate of apprentices has continued to rise recently. I don't know if there are any objective reasons. Anyway, it is not good news for them. It means that every mission will take great risks.
After returning to the dormitory from the restaurant, Ivan felt more eager to improve his own strength. He never wanted to encounter the rough experience like the Swamp Forest City again. Such a predicament once is enough.
