Wizard: I Can Refine Everything-Chapter 501 - 46: The Great Wizard’s Ecstasy

Two years had passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of departure had finally arrived.

In the second sub-level of the Wizard Tower, Ali sat cross-legged in a black Wizard Robe adorned with silver patterns. In front of her, a delicate black incense burner continuously emitted wisps of blue smoke.

The blue smoke intertwined in the air and eventually formed the image of a person wearing a skull mask, carrying a bundle on his back.

Upon seeing this image, Ali sighed and waved her hand to disperse the blue smoke.

"It’s still the Traveler."

As a Curse Wizard, Ali also had some knowledge of Divination Witchcraft.

Divination Witchcraft had many varieties, among which Prophetic Witchcraft was the most perilous.

Once Prophetic Witchcraft was initiated, the future was sealed. Except under certain special circumstances, no wizard would use Prophetic Witchcraft.

Besides Prophetic Witchcraft, the most commonly used in Divination Witchcraft was Fortune-Telling.

This type of divination was much safer compared to Prophetic Witchcraft, as it did not influence the wizard’s future. However, it also lost precise information and accuracy.

Fortune-Telling required interpreting the content of divination from abstract visions. The interpretations were merely rough summaries like safety, danger, luck, etc., and most of the time, the same vision could represent two or more different or even opposite meanings.

The turbulent flow of fate was capricious, not even the Curse Chair dared claim their divinations were always correct.

Ali packed up the incense burner, her heart filled with trepidation.

She had conducted three divinations for Richard, and each time it had been the Traveler.

The Traveler imagery had multiple meanings, and the meaning varied when divining different subjects.

Ali’s divination concerned the outcome of the war for Richard, and the Traveler imagery, when divining a person, could be interpreted in two ways.

One was death, the other was a distant journey.

Death was self-explanatory, but a distant journey was quite strange.

A distant journey meant that the divined person would travel to a far-off foreign land.

Ali found the second interpretation strange, but she hoped that was what the imagery meant.

She did not want to believe that Richard would die in this war.

Thump, thump, thump!

The door to the laboratory was knocked.

Ali approached the door and opened it, standing outside was Richard, who was about to embark on his expedition.

"It’s time for me to leave."

Richard’s voice was relaxed, as if he was saying he would step out for a bit and be back soon.

War was normal for wizards, and having survived the Civilization War, Richard had become very composed about warfare.

I survived the battlefield of the Civilization War, why fear a Plane War?

"Oh, wait a moment."

Ali hurried to the experiment table, picked up something resembling a metal plate, and handed it to Richard.

"Take this, an amulet I crafted using Curse Witchcraft. Though it can’t assure you complete safety, it should at least improve your luck."

When the Traveler appeared in her second divination, Ali had a premonition.

She felt that the third divination would not change.

Thus, before performing the third divination, she created the amulet using all her knowledge.

Richard accepted the amulet, which had a cord on it just long enough to wear around his neck.

Looking at the cord, clearly handwoven with skill on the amulet,

Richard felt a warm smile, "Haha, your craftsmanship is quite clever."

Ali forced a smile and urged, "Make sure to keep it with you at all times, my skills are reliable."

Richard nodded slightly, smiling, "Don’t worry, I promise to keep it on me."

...

Today, Garon Wizard Academy was unusually quiet, the normally noisy apprentices were as docile and silent as baby chicks.

Even the dullest apprentice could sense the ominous atmosphere permeating the academy, as if something significant was about to happen.

At the peak, the wizards of Garon Wizard Academy flew in the sky, the dense black robes almost forming a dark cloud. And from all around, streaks of light flew in, joining this massive assembly.

As the acting Deputy Dean, Jimmy stood at the very top of this dark cloud, somewhat bored as he watched the battle reports in the Crystal Ball.

This was a new model of Crystal Ball recently developed by the Tesla Chamber of Commerce, which could receive frontline battle reports issued by a department under the Truth Council.

Most of these battle reports celebrated various victories achieved by the wizards in battles, as if it wouldn’t be long before the wizards would be on the offensive.

However, as a Three Rings Wizard and military personnel, Jimmy’s Crystal Ball also had an extra feature showing the map of the war zone. On this map, Jimmy could clearly see that despite successive victories by the wizards, their battle line was steadily retreating.

"Battle reports can lie, but battle lines don’t. Sigh... no amount of paper strategy can push the frontline forward even by an inch."

Suddenly, as he contemplated, Jimmy sharply raised his head.

A streak of light was flying toward him, and his body involuntarily reacted with fear.

Who was this wizard?

At the same time, a commotion emanated from the massive cloud of Wizards.

These Wizards were all faculty members at the Garon Wizard College, and the majority of them hailed from there, so they typically followed the path of Physique Evolution.

Their bodies were now emitting a warning—there was a predator approaching.

Soon, the streak of light neared.

Jimmy’s eyes narrowed slightly as his gaze penetrated the surface glare to discern the true appearance of the Wizard.

"Richard?!"

Jimmy rubbed his eyes and looked again towards the streak of light. This time, the light was closer, and his view much clearer.

The Wizard within that streak of light was indeed Richard!

Yet it had only been several decades since he last saw Richard. What extraordinary discovery had he made in that time, for him to have changed so drastically?

The streak of light stopped beside Jimmy, revealing Richard inside.

Jimmy couldn’t help but size him up—Richard’s body seemed unchanged, but the faint life radiation constantly reminded him that the biggest similarity between this creature and him was that both resembled humans.

"What are you looking at, Master? Is there something on me?"

Richard felt uncomfortable under Jimmy’s gaze, as his wasn’t the look one would give a Wizard, but rather like one observing a monster.

"Don’t you feel it?" Jimmy spoke up, "Look around you. What have you done over these years to gain such an immense improvement?"

Richard glanced around and noticed that the Wizards were distancing themselves from him much more than from others.

Moreover, he could acutely feel that these Wizards’ bodies were subtly trembling.

A shock of realization struck Richard, "Damn, without the Radiation Rule, I can’t perfectly hide my life radiation!"

Richard gave an awkward smile, "My strength has increased so much that I can’t completely contain my life radiation anymore."

Jimmy nodded slightly, his tone filled with astonishment, "This improvement is indeed significant. Tell me the truth, did the Dean give you special treatment?"

Richard chuckled and pulled a scroll from his pocket.

"You have this as well, Master."

Upon seeing the scroll, Jimmy’s expression abruptly changed. As a trusted lieutenant of Garon Great Wizard, he had, of course, seen this scroll before.

Jimmy’s voice trembled.

"You ... found it?"

Richard slightly shook his head: "Not quite, I just succeeded."

Jimmy swallowed, though no specific mechanism was discovered, the success alone was enough to stir the heart.

Transcending the physical limits of third-level creatures, Richard could now nearly be called a mini Great Wizard.

"Come with me, the Dean needs to see your condition!"

Jimmy, somewhat excited, grabbed Richard’s arm, plummeting towards the mountain summit’s Wizard Tower like a falling meteor.

With a booming sound, they landed, creating a large crater on the summit.

Without another word, Jimmy kicked open the door to the Wizard Tower and pulled Richard straight to the second floor.

The entire process was swift, leaving Richard stunned.

This isn’t just any place, it’s the Great Wizard’s Wizard Tower, isn’t it your own house?

On the second floor of the Wizard Tower, Garon the Great Wizard was equally astonished as he watched Jimmy.

"What are you doing, Jimmy?"

Jimmy stopped and pushed Richard towards Garon the Great Wizard.

"Dean, Richard succeeded!"

Garon Great Wizard was taken aback, "What succeeded ... you succeeded!"

He stared at Richard in shock, a powerful surge of spiritual power emanating from his body, enveloping Richard like a storm.

Soon, the storm dispersed.

A smile crept over Garon the Great Wizard’s face, unable to be suppressed. He murmured joyously, "It really worked, I didn’t expect it to actually work! You really are my lucky star!"

"Um, Dean, I haven’t discovered the principle of evolution," said Richard with a dry laugh.

"No, no, I’ll handle the research on the principle. Just give me some of your blood; one liter will suffice."

Garon Great Wizard rushed into the laboratory amidst a clattering of bottles. Soon after, he emerged with a crystal tube bound with rules clutched in his hand.

"You are the first among Wizards to not become a Great Wizard but break through the limit of Three Rings.

Your blood will definitely help me discover its secrets, at least to understand how Wizards can break through the limit of Three Rings!"

Garon Great Wizard’s voice was filled with excitement, for no Wizard could remain indifferent in the face of the key to unraveling mysteries.

Richard cooperated and produced one liter of blood, something he could regenerate in minutes.

Watching the vibrant red liquid within the crystal tube, Garon Great Wizard quickly performed a Sealing Skill to seal it.

In a moment, dozens of seals were layered onto the crystal tube, dazzling Richard.

Once the sealing was completed, Garon Great Wizard carefully stored the crystal tube in his pocket, patting Richard on the shoulder with a smile.

"Kid, well done! If I succeed in the future, your share is assured!"
