Weird Wizarding World

  Chapter 14 Exchange

   "The flash technique is good, third-class apprentice."

   Walking towards him was a tall figure in a gray robe, with a golden Lapp school triangular badge pinned to his chest. At this moment, he lifted his hood and praised Colin faintly.

  After lifting the hood, a red-haired man appeared in front of Colin. His hair was a bit messy, and there was a beard around his chin.

   "Thank you, teacher." Colin hurriedly bent down to thank you.

  The third-class apprentice is another name for the junior wizard apprentice, and the golden badge on the chest of the red-haired man represents that he is a senior wizard apprentice of the school, that is, a first-class wizard apprentice.

  Generally speaking, the basic wizard courses of Colin and others in the school are taught by first-class apprentices like the red-haired man in turn.

  So they are generally called teachers by junior apprentices like Colin.

  In addition, first-class apprentices not only need to teach knowledge, but also have different responsibilities. The red-haired man seems to be a guard.

  The red-haired teacher nodded in disbelief, then waved his right hand.

  An orange fireball appeared suddenly, and hit the mutilated body of the green man with a whistling heat wave.

  Although Colin next to him kept his face calm, he was taken aback in his heart.

  The fire was raging, and the smell of meat in the air became stronger.

  Colin subconsciously took two steps to the side and walked to the upper air.

   "Relax, it's necessary for the polluters to—"

  The red-haired man had already walked in front of Colin, and explained calmly, then changed the subject,

   "As for you, you will also be tested."

   "Testing?" Colin asked impulsively.

  The red-haired man didn't answer, but just stared at him blankly and said, "Relax, don't resist."

   Then the lips moved slightly, and the operation began.

  The flame light from the burning corpse reflected Colin's face in a cloudy and cloudy way. He clenched the bee needle tightly in his hand, and the leather-wrapped handle was delicate to the touch.

  He didn't know whether the gold paper would be detected, and he didn't know whether the rituals performed by the original owner would leave traces on his body.

   But he had no other choice.

  Colin stood calmly on the spot, trying to relax his whole body.

   After a few seconds, a white light was released from the red-haired man's hand, scanning Colin from head to toe.

  Where the white light passed, it felt like being immersed in a hot spring. Although there was no discomfort, Colin still felt very uncomfortable.

   "Okay, third-class apprentice, you can go." The red-haired man said after confirming the result.

   "Okay, instructor."

  Colin lowered his head, heaving a sigh of relief, but also full of thoughts.

  'Still not strong enough...' he sighed in his heart.

   "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing—" the red-haired man stopped him.

  Colin stopped in his tracks and turned around in doubt.

   "That witchcraft, which is a bit like the ignition technique...is the second witchcraft performed after you just now. What is that, why have I never seen it before?...Did you improve it yourself?"

   "…No, Teacher."

"That's a witchcraft I bought at the market. It has no name. The seller calls it the Ignition Technique... the effect is similar to that of the Ignition Technique, except that it can ignite a fire from a distance without physical contact. The range is about half a meter centered on itself. distance."

  Colin pondered for a moment, then replied calmly.

  The so-called ignition technique, and the flash technique that the red-haired teacher mistook before, are actually the ignition technique and the light technique after breaking the limit once.

  During this period of time, he was not only learning a new sorcery—steel armor, but he had already broken the limit of all the sorcery he had mastered once.

  As he expected, tricks such as light spells and ignition spells did not increase much in power after breaking the limit.

  However, sometimes such clever use of brain as today can also achieve unexpected results.

   "Third-class apprentice, I am very interested in this witchcraft, and I am willing to exchange it with the same knowledge or magic stones, is that okay?" the red-haired teacher continued.

   "...It's my honor, teacher." Colin was taken aback and answered quickly.

   "So do you want magic stones, or equivalent knowledge?" The red-haired teacher nodded in satisfaction, and added: "If it is knowledge, I have several witchcrafts of equal value for you to choose from."

   "I choose knowledge." Colin replied without hesitation.

   "A wise decision." The teacher praised, and then he turned his head to look at the end of the street, "We will find a suitable place to exchange after we deal with this place."

  Colin followed his gaze.

  At the end of the street, there were five people running towards here at this time. The leader was wearing a wizard robe and a silver Lapp school badge, while the four behind him were wearing fine steel armor and carrying big swords on their backs.

   "My lord." The leading wizard apprentice came to the red-haired teacher and greeted respectfully.

  The red-haired teacher nodded, and then said: "The polluter has been dealt with, I'm leaving first, come to me if you have anything to do."

   Then motioned Colin to follow him.

   After turning around, he seemed to think of something again. He paused and turned around to remind the intermediate apprentice: "Remember to purify the embers later."

   "Okay, my lord." The intermediate apprentice responded respectfully.

  The red-haired teacher nodded and continued to walk forward.

  Colin hurriedly followed, and before leaving, he took another look at the burning corpse beside him.

  By this time, most of the corpse had been burned, and the new second-class apprentice seemed to feel that the fire was not strong enough, so he was standing aside directing four plate armor knights to pour kerosene on it.

  Colin also keenly noticed that in the depths of the tumbling flames, there seemed to be strange green lights appearing and disappearing, which made people feel a little disturbed.

  The viscous kerosene was poured from the leather bag, and the flames rose to the height of half a person.

  Colin stopped looking, and turned to follow the figure of the red-haired teacher.

  The exchange of witchcraft is not simple, and cannot be completed in a short period of time.

  Every witchcraft involves several or even dozens or hundreds of complex knowledge.

  Take a limit-breaking ignition technique as an example, it will take at least half an hour to completely transcribe it on paper.

  So exchanging witchcraft usually requires finding a suitable place, as well as tools such as paper and pen.

  In addition, the exchange of knowledge between wizards is generally divided into two forms.

  One is to exchange manuscripts directly, transcribing complete witchcraft models and principles on paper for exchange.

  The other is based on the exchange of manuscripts, with accompanying explanations, mainly explaining the principles and knowledge behind them, etc.

   The second method is obviously a better way for both parties to the exchange.

   It can not only reduce the time for each other to learn new witchcraft, but also verify the authenticity of the manuscript.

   However, in the case of a relatively large knowledge gap between the two.

  The party with relatively higher knowledge is generally more willing to choose the way of only exchanging manuscripts.

  For the party with higher knowledge, unless the witchcraft exchanged is completely different from his field of expertise.

  Otherwise, there is generally no need to explain, and the principle can be roughly understood after reading the manuscript. What they exchanged is just a new idea that comprehends by analogy.
