Chapter 200: An Official Magus Can Live for 200 Years! (3)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Levi did not need to buy land, as he already had territory in the south.
...Tulip Hill and Stormy Hill.
After much consideration, he decided to enter Tulip Hill.
Although he might encounter some trouble later.
But it was better than waiting for death in the Northern Territory.
Moreover, with his strength, the kingdom would not say anything if he took over Tulip Hill.
No matter what, when Levi moved to the South, he would face some challenges. He was already mentally prepared.
Levi liked to keep a low profile and did not like to cause trouble, but that did not mean that he was afraid of trouble.
He had not practiced this breathing technique to make himself suffer.
Along the way, with Red Blood Cavalry clearing the way, some inconspicuous mountain bandits and roaming knights were easily dealt with.
Sam was now a Quasi-Knight, and if everything went well, he had the hope of becoming an official knight in the next few years.
As an official knight that he had personally nurtured, Levi still felt a sense of accomplishment.
“My lord, if we go to Flower City like this, won’t the nobles in the south chase us out?” Sam was a little uncertain.
Although Levi was the lord of Tulip Hill, everyone knew that after the Civil War, the Earl of Blood was in control of Flower City.
Now that the war was over, although the Bloody Earl was dead, Flower City was still under the command of the King’s army, led by one of the Seven Godly Swords.
From Sam’s point of view, the royal family’s attitude was obvious.
That was, Flower City would not be handed over to its true owner, Baron Levi, temporarily.
“Don’t worry, they won’t.”
Levi patted Sam on the shoulder.
Then, he looked ahead.
Levi had been keeping a low profile for too long. It was only right for him to occasionally reveal a little bit of his strength in exchange for a little bit of respect.
In the Flower City, the Red Willow Divine Sword, one of the Seven Divine
Swords, was practicing his swordsmanship.
As the second divine sword of the Seven Godly Swords, he was second only to the Nation Guarding Divine Sword and was the top swordsman of the kingdom.
The Red Willow Divine Sword himself looked like a sharp sword.
Not only was he powerful, but he also had the strength of a top-notch grand Imight.
He was also the son of the Duke of Red Willow.
Duke of Red Willow had always been close to the royal family.
Especially after the Civil War.
The Red Willow family, as a great contributor to quelling the rebellion in the north, was highly regarded by the royal family.
Therefore, the important task of temporarily guarding Flower City was handed over to the Red Willow Divine Sword, a powerful and prestigious figure.
Guarding another important city, Storm City, the lair of Montenegro
Mountain, was the Nation Guarding Divine Sword, the first of the Seven Divine Swords under the King. Similarly, this was also Baron Levi’s territory.
Perhaps no one would have thought that the owners of these territories.
They were already on their way south.
Now, Levi had arrived in the warm south.
To avoid being too conspicuous, he only brought the three Giant Bears of the Northern Territory from the north and did not bring Hen-Ha Two Generals.
The Hen-Ha Two Generals were too huge, and Levi planned to secretly bring them here after the troubles in the south were completely resolved.
Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why Levi was able to tame so many giant beasts. Levi was not afraid of the kingdom, but he was worried about the Church.
Levi sat on the bear’s back. With the Four Generals of the MO family protecting him, he felt very safe.
His consciousness swam in the shallow sea. He tried to dive deeper but failed.
The golden sunlight warmed Levi’s spirit. Finally, Levi’s head emerged from the golden ocean.
At the same time, he felt that his mental strength had increased by a trace…
[Deep Sea Meditation Art Proficiency +1]
With the system announcement completed, Levi, who was on the bear’s back, also finished his meditation.
“I can only increase my proficiency by 1 point per day. That’s too slow.” Levi worried.
He opened the proficiency panel.
Levi-
[Deep Sea Meditation Art: Level 1 (257/1000)]
“It’s been almost a year since I mastered it, and I’m still at Level 1. It’ll take ages to reach Level 3,” Levi grumbled in his heart.
No matter how hard he practiced the Deep Sea Meditation Art, he could only gain 1 point of proficiency every day.
This was because after completing a full round of meditation, his mental strength would enter a temporary state of fatigue, and needed to “cool down” until the next day to continue cultivation.
This was entirely different from the breathing technique.
As long as his body could endure it, Levi could cultivate the breathing technique tirelessly.
However, with the Meditation Art, there was nothing Levi could do.
He called out Tuten and asked, “Tuten, under normal circumstances, how long does it take for a wizard apprentice with the talent of the Children of Chaos to progress from low-level to mid-level?”
Tuten thought for a moment and replied, “It usually takes more than five years, and that’s just for the standard of mental strength. To be truly promoted from a low-level wizard apprentice to a mid-level one, besides having sufficient mental strength, you also need to master a certain number of spells. Otherwise, even with strong mental power, lacking the necessary spells would still prevent you from being considered a true mid-level wizard apprentice.”
“A truly qualified low-level wizard apprentice needs to master at least one Zero-Ring Cantrip to be called a wizard apprentice. Without mastering spells, no matter how strong the mental strength is, it will not have any combat power. The upper limit of the Zero-Ring Cantrip that a low-level wizard apprentice can master is three. An intermediate wizard apprentice would have five Zero-Ring Cantrips, and an advanced wizard apprentice would have ten Zero-Ring Cantrips. ”
“Grasping ten Zero-Ring Cantrips and at least one true First-Ring spell, as well as having a strong enough spiritual force in your mind that’s in the form of gas, is the true threshold of becoming an official wizard.”
Levi listened to Tuten’s description.
“In that case, my cultivation speed is quite fast.” he made a comparison. “An official wizard. It’s said that after becoming a first-circle wizard, one has a lifespan of 200 years. This is the difference between a wizard and a knight.
Although a grand knight is very strong, their lifespan is not much longer than a mortal’s. In essence, their lifespan is no different from a mortal’s. They only live longer because they can avoid some mortal diseases and calamities.”
“Moreover, grand knights will grow older, and their blood essence will weaken.
Their strength will not increase but instead decrease.”
“But the wizard is different. The older a wizard is, the longer they live, the stronger they become.”
“The more ancient he is, the more knowledge and experience he obtains, the more combat techniques he has, and the more spells he has mastered.” Tuten’s face was full of envy, and Levi was also looking forward to it.
The path of a wizard was long and difficult.
However, he thought that grand knights were not as bad as Tuten said.
Because being a grand knight was not the end of the path of a knight.
Although Levi had never seen a legendary knight, if he died of old age, he should be able to live for 200 years…
Moreover, with the proficiency panel, he could continuously fuse the breathing technique to break through the limit. On the path of a knight, a legendary Imight might not necessarily be the end..
