Chapter 146: Advanced Meditation Spell

Merlin was elated. He did not think Wizard Leo would actually answer his other request besides the First-level spell. Of course, Merlin had thought of this other request since a long time ago. He just had not found the chance to say it.

Now that he had gotten the chance, Merlin would not let it go easily. Thus, he spoke in a low voice. “Speaking of that, I actually do have one in mind. I hope Teacher Leo can help me with it.”

Wizard Leo nodded slightly. “What request? Name it.”

“Advanced Meditation Spell! Although the effect of the intermediate Meditation Spell you gave me before was rather good, I have already constructed Six-Elemental spells now. The amount of Mind Power I need is huge, so the speed of intermediate Mind Meditation Spell to increase my Mind Power is too slow.”

Merlin said it quite hesitantly. He even raised his head and took a glance at Wizard Leo. He found that Wizard Leo’s expression did not change. The grin on his face still remained.

“Merlin, do you know how much contribution points an advanced Mind Meditation Spell cost?”

Wizard Leo did not answer directly. He simply asked in a cool tone.

Merlin recalled carefully. He knew that advanced Mind Meditation Spell was extremely rare in the Resource Tower. There were only about ten of them. Moreover, each of them required up to thousand or even a few thousands of contribution points.

Such amount of contribution points was considered an astronomical number to almost all Entrance-level Spell Caster. If Merlin wanted to exchange for advanced Mind Meditation Spell with his contribution points, it was obviously impossible in the short term.

Even if he had leveled up and became a First-level Spell Caster, one thousand contribution points was still a huge number. After all, a First-level Spell Caster still needed all sorts of spells or casting tools. Everything required contribution points.

Looking at those First-level, Second-level and even Third-level Spell Casters in the Mission Hall, he already knew that the contribution points were not enough even for the official members of Dark Magic Region.

After a long while, Wizard Leo shook his head slightly. “You know, advanced Mind Meditation Spell required up to thousands of contribution points. Even if it was me, I can’t exchange it for you.”

Merlin was a little disappointed, but he soon calmed his feelings. The teachers in Dark Magic Region were only responsible for the teaching. They did not have the obligation to provide any cultivation resources. This time, Wizard Leo could provide any First-level spell Merlin wanted for free. This was already generous enough of him.

“I can’t exchange the advanced Mind Meditation Spell in the Resource Tower for you, but many years ago, I have once killed a Sixth-level Spell Caster. I received an advanced Mind Meditation Spell then.”

Wizard Leo’s words surprised Merlin, throwing him off guard. Wizard Leo actually possessed an advanced Mind Meditation Spell and he still had the leisure to joke around with Merlin.

From a certain extent, the fact that both could joke around each other showed how close their relationship was. Wizard Leo no longer had the same attitude he showed any normal students towards Merlin.

This was a good thing. Other than disliking explaining boring Spell Model knowledge, Merlin was quite satisfied with every other aspect of Wizard Leo. Wizard Leo was strong without a doubt. Most important of all, Merlin could sense that Wizard Leo thought highly of him!

Maybe this was because Merlin had performed well during the conference and made Wizard Leo proud, or due to Merlin’s identity as a Six-Elemental Spell Caster; or even Merlin was the same as Wizard Leo back then – not being thought highly of by those Seventh-level Spell Caster. He had a special impression about Merlin.

No matter what the reason was, Wizard Leo truly regarded Merlin as important now. This was the point that made Merlin most elated.

“Here you go. The effect of this advanced Mind Meditation Spell is quite good.”

Wizard Leo pulled a scroll of yellowed paper from his ring. Merlin quickly took it. This yellowed paper was made by an unknown material. There was a cool sensation when he held it in his hands.

“Alright. You should go now. After you’ve picked which spell you want, come and find me again!”

Merlin nodded, then turned around respectfully and left the room. Looking at Merlin’s back, Wizard Leo muttered softly. “Hehe. Old stuff, do you think Six-Elemental Spell Caster is impossible? I will help him no matter what. Six-Elemental Spell Caster, huh. Back then, I wanted to do it, but I didn’t dare to do so. I hope that you won’t disappoint me…”

Wizard Leo waved his hand and the door instantly shut close.

*****

When Merlin returned to his room, the first thing he did was to check out the advanced Mind Meditation Spell Wizard Leo gave him. In the Resource Tower, advanced Mind Meditation Spell was too rare. Wizard Leo actually attained this advanced Meditation Spell by killing a Sixth-level Spell Caster.

Although Wizard Leo mentioned it so calmly, Merlin knew how important the message was from his words. Sixth-level Spell Caster was a height that Merlin still could not reach currently.

A normal Fourth-level Spell Caster could destroy a military fortress just by himself. Meanwhile, for a Sixth-level Spell Caster, if he cast his spells frantically without a care in the world, even a large city could be easily destroyed by him.

The fact that Wizard Leo could kill a Sixth-level Spell Caster had already proved his strength. It was no wonder that other Sixth-level Spell Casters in Dark Magic Region all seemed to fear Wizard Leo.

Merlin etched this advanced Meditation Spell deeply in his mind and began to meditate.

After a while, Merlin opened his eyes wide. A hint of surprise showed on his face.

“Powerful. Powerful. It’s indeed so powerful! It’s so much more powerful than intermediate Meditation Spell!”

Merlin had just meditated for a short while but to his amazement, he noticed the rapid increase of his Mind Power. It’s at least ten times more powerful than the previous intermediate Mind Meditation Spell. Maybe even more!”

It was no wonder that the advanced Mind Meditation Spell in the Resource Tower was so expensive. This effect was much more powerful than the intermediate Mind Meditation Spell.

Although this advanced Mind Meditation Spell was powerful, Merlin did not begin meditating right away. He was in no rush since he had already attained it. He still had a long road ahead.

Thus, Merlin decided to go to the Resource Tower first and check out the First-level spells there. After all, Merlin was a Six-Elemental Spell Caster. The First-level spells he needed had to be carefully chosen besides the Fire-type First-level spell, Furious Flame.

Seeing that it was still bright outside of the tower, Merlin directly left the tower for the Resource Tower.

*****

There were many Spell Casters today at the Resource Tower, but most were Entrance-level Spell Casters.

When Merlin walked into the Resource Tower, he obviously felt a lot of gazes on him. This was completely different from the time he visited Resource Tower previously.

Merlin knew that these people acted this way because he had performed well during the conference of Dark Magic Region and revealed his identity as Six-Elemental Spell Caster. However, in the dramatic turn of events, he was not taken in by the Seventh-level Spell Casters as a student.

This matter had almost become the hottest topic in the whole Dark Magic Region.

Merlin did not mind the gaze of these Spell Casters. Instead, he headed straight to the second level.

In the second level, it was still the same. Merlin was watched by many Spell Casters. The ‘low-profile’ Merlin had a hard time trying to get with it.

Merlin reached the shelves in which the First-level spells were placed. These First-level spells required at least twenty contribution points. The advanced spell might even require up to hundreds of contribution points.

Of course, Merlin would never search for the spell that requires that many contribution points. Any spell could be the strongest if it suited the Spell Caster himself the best!

Merlin first looked at Earth-type spells. Currently, Merlin’s Earth-type Zero-level spell was Earth guard. Although its strength was good, it was far from what Merlin needed now.

Thus, he needed a First-level spell with stronger defending ability. He recalled Wizard Loan, the opponent he had met during the conference. His Spell Scroll, Guardian Monument, attracted Merlin greatly. Its defending ability was incredible. Merlin’s attack such as Large Fireball did not have much effect on Guardian Monument.

“Guardian Monument!”

Merlin quickly found Guardian Monument. There was some introduction about the spell on it.

“Guardian Monument. Earth-type First-level spell. Strong individual defense. Eighty contribution points!”

This Guardian Monument needed eighty contribution points. This was quite expensive. A normal First-level spell only required twenty to fifty contribution points. Those First-level spells that required more than fifty contribution points all had their own specialties.

However, Merlin did not immediately select Guardian Monument. Instead, he began to search again. He found two Earth-type Defensive spells that were more suitable for him then. There were Solidrock Wall and Earth Armor.

Solidrock Wall was quite similar to Guardian Monument, but its defending area was slightly wider. Meanwhile, Earth Armor was rather unique. It could actually form a thick armor with Earth Element on the surface of the skin.

The defense of Earth Armor was rather powerful as well, but it had a drawback. The Magic Power required to use it was too large. Even with Merlin’s rich Magic Power, he was afraid that he could not even maintain it for half an hour.

Half an hour was already sufficient for a normal battle. However, if he were to face a cruel battle and lose his Defensive spell then, he was basically digging his own grave. Relatively speaking, the Magic Power required for Guardian Monument was slightly lesser.

Earth Armor required one hundred contribution points to be exchanged. Its defense was indeed stronger than Guardian Monument. However, judging from the overalls, Merlin still chose Guardian Monument.

“Hmm? Wizard Merlin, are you also choosing First-level spell?”

Just when Merlin had chosen Earth-type Defensive First-level spell ‘Guardian Monument’, a rather surprised voice came from behind him.
