Chapter 181 - 149: Supreme Talent?

...

...

"What did you see?"

A moment later, Luo De looked at the awakened Vivian and asked.

"A darkness, with many shadows... Everyone was a shadow, it looked very strange."

Vivian blinked, recalling and gesturing gently with her hands,

"Flying around, like ghosts."

Luo De nodded slightly.

This was indeed similar to what Linda had mentioned before.

In the first test of Spiritual Strength, one could always see scenes related to their Talent Ability.

Compared to the chaotic scenes Luo De saw, what Vivian saw was very pure.

Her ability is related to shadows.

Luo De conveniently placed the "Heart Silence Meditation Technique" into Vivian’s arms.

"I checked your Spiritual Strength; it’s about 10.3, so now you have to learn this."

Luo De would have everyone under him with Spiritual Power over 10 points attempt to learn these Meditation Techniques.

Anyway, if they’re idle, Luo De could afford to let them study.

As long as one of them becomes a wizard apprentice, Luo De wins.

The reason Luo De didn’t have Vivian and the others learn the Star Ring Meditation Technique is because it’s from the Dawn Society, and the later knowledge is missing.

Even if it weren’t missing, Luo De would still need to acquire more knowledge from the Dawn Society.

The feeling of having one’s lifeline grasped by others is not good.

Now, Luo De has a complete knowledge system for the Sea Race wizard apprentice’s meditation techniques, which thousands of books rich in content can certainly provide more than the Dawn Society can offer.

So naturally, Luo De would have his subordinates learn from the knowledge system he already mastered.

More importantly, there are real Wizard relics below that have not been unlocked.

Luo De believes there will be more knowledge inside.

This first layer apprentice district already has so many classics, so wouldn’t there be even more below in the real Wizard area?

"You don’t need to worry, once your sister learns the Sea Race language, you will be able to understand it as well."

Luo De looked at Vivian, who was full of anguish, and comforted her.

Avril must learn the Sea Race language.

Luo De must cultivate her into a knowledge base, so Luo De doesn’t always have to spend time flipping through books and checking materials.

"Ah, I really don’t like these things."

Vivian put away the Meditation Techniques with disdain.

Luo De casually tested his own Spiritual Strength, which was around 11.4.

It was about the same as Luo De’s own estimation.

"Let’s go, continue."

Luo De stood up and continued exploring the remaining dormitories with Vivian and Gang Le.

They successively discovered 4 more crystal balls, 7 Meditation Techniques, and four Extraordinary Gems.

There were also some crystal bottles, which perhaps once contained something but are now empty.

"Do these people not use magic staffs?"

Luo De was very curious.

After searching twenty-eight apartments, Luo De found no Magic Equipment.

On second thought, it made sense; such Magic Equipment was quite precious even in the Ancient Era.

The valuable Magic Equipment should be carried by the wizard apprentices, while the other important items were not as significant.

And in these apprentice dormitories, Luo De found no corpses.

"What a pity."

Luo De was quite helpless,

"Let’s go, the last four rooms."

Luo De stepped forward, only to see Mussen and others waiting at the door.

"What’s wrong?"

Luo De asked.

Mussen pointed inside the door, saying, "Lordship, please look."

Following Mussen’s direction, Luo De saw a dark brown line on the ground.

Going further inside, there was a mummified corpse lying in the center of the room.

"This is..."

Luo De examined it closely, discovering a sharp stone pillar impaled in the corpse’s chest.

"Looks like it was stabbed to death, a conflict when leaving?"

Luo De guessed.

There were almost no corpses of wizard apprentices here, so Luo De surmised they all evacuated.

Moreover, they evacuated hastily, leaving some things behind.

Evacuation inevitably leads to chaos, so being stabbed to death seems reasonable.

Of course, Luo De was not interested in exploring the cause of death and began searching the corpse directly.

After a thorough search, Luo De found nothing and sighed again.

It seems the previous assumption was wrong.

Even if they died here, the wizard apprentice had no Magic Equipment.

Luo De then turned his attention to the room.

Perhaps because the room’s owner died here, the items in the room were not sorted, and there were over a dozen books on the shelf.

No matter what, Luo De took them all out and tossed them to Gang Le,

"Put everything in the library and organize it together."

Clang—

The moment the books fell into Gang Le’s arms, a crisp sound echoed on the ground.

Everyone instinctively looked down and saw a dark blue ring drop to the ground.

"Eh?"

Luo De bent down to pick up the ring, bringing it up to his face to examine closely.

At first glance, the ring seemed like an ordinary metal ring, but upon closer inspection, it was covered in intricate patterns.

Luo De’s eyes lit up,

Finally saw Magic Equipment!

Even though he didn’t know what it was yet, Luo De was still very excited!

Luo De isn’t picky!

As long as it’s Magic Equipment, it’s fine!

Without bothering to investigate what it was, Luo De promptly tucked the ring into his pocket!

Then he carefully searched the room, opening every book to examine but found no unexpected discoveries.

Luo De also searched the remaining three rooms, all empty.

Without lingering, Luo De led the group out of the dormitory district and returned to the hall.

Now only the central gate leading to the Official Wizard area remained.

Below is definitely an extraordinary treasure.

The Spiritual Gem on the gate alone is invaluable.
