Wizard: I Can Refine Everything-Chapter 63 - Black Tower Great Wizard

Chapter 63: Chapter 63 Black Tower Great Wizard

After the invisible shackles were broken, Richard’s body underwent a startling transformation.

A tingling sensation spread throughout his body, as if every cell was trembling. At the same time, the Magic Power inside him began to be consumed, with the vanishing Magic Power being absorbed by the cells as nourishment to support Evolution.

The first to transform was his skin, with a layer of keratin visibly forming on the surface. Protected by this layer of keratin, Richard could clearly feel the rate at which his body heat was escaping began to decrease.

But the changes weren’t just limited to the epidermis; all of Richard’s cells participated in the Evolution, undergoing transformations. The cells produced heat more fiercely, while the muscles and fat began altering their structures to be more adapted to cold environments.

Changes that would have taken thousands of years were completed in mere minutes under the acceleration of the Magic Potion.

When it was all over, Richard suddenly vomited a pool of black blood.

These were the waste products after the cell renewal.

“This… does this count as making it to the threshold?” Richard wiped his mouth, the freezing process of the ice capsule had not yet ended, but he no longer felt the cold.

As time elapsed, Richard stepped out of the capsule and took out a test Crystal Ball from his Magic Pocket.

“Spiritual Power 33.2, Physique 31.9, Magic Power 332, Rating, Intermediate Apprentice.”

“It actually increased my Physique by nearly two points; this year’s training wasn’t in vain after all.”

The Adaptation Body had the effect of uncovering the body’s potential, although as a side effect, it seemed that this side effect had, at present, been the biggest help to Richard.

After cleaning the ice capsule, Richard took out another vial of Adaptation Potion and injected it into his body.

The Evolution just now had used up the previous dose of Adaptation Potion, so now it was time to replenish it.

Richard sat on the electric chair, took a deep breath, and flipped the switch.

This time, Richard’s body underwent another transformation; the current passing through him no longer brought pain but instead a tingling sensation.

Richard’s body was beginning to adapt to the electric shocks.

Just as mentioned before, the Life Core is like a rusty machine, the Adaptation Potion is its lubricant, and external stimuli are its source of Energy. Now that the machine was in motion, the rust between components naturally began to wear away, and the machine would only work faster and faster.

The cycle ended, and Richard climbed out from the recovery fluid, ready to report his progress to Jolod.

Jolod was quite concerned about his progress; ever since Richard had last asked Jolod about the Adaptation Body showing no effects, he would check in every few days, offering encouragement and support.

As someone who had been through it, Jolod naturally knew the pain of the initial stages of the Adaptation Body, the daily torture with almost no visible results.

To travel a hundred miles is to halve it at ninety.

Such days without hope make it easy for one to give up.

Arriving at the laboratory, Jolod, in front of the dissection table, was instructing Chax, pointing at the corpse of an Otherworld creature.

“This gland is its digestive gland, the digestive fluid enters its digestive cavity through this duct, and then dissolves the food into a nutrient soup…”

Seeing Richard come in, Jolod immediately stopped explaining.

“Richard, you’ve come at just the right time, I have something to inform you.”

“Go ahead, Teacher,” Richard found a stool and sat next to Chax.

“I have good news for you, the Dean has returned ahead of schedule, and you can enter the Dean’s Secret Realm this afternoon.”

“Really?” Richard was startled and then delighted, “Isn’t the Dean supposed to be away for another year?”

Jolod set aside the scalpel in his hand and casually summoned a ball of water to wash his hands.

“Who knows, but that’s what Alex said. I saw you come in smiling; do you have good news to tell me?” Jolod looked at Richard with a smile.

Richard grinned sheepishly, “I just came to tell Teacher that my Adaptation Body has started to show effects.”

“As he spoke, Richard stretched out his arm, and Jolod cast a glance and immediately noticed the change in Richard.”

“Very good, good, as long as there are effects, that’s good,” Jolod sighed. “A year without results, I was afraid you might give up…”

Before he could finish, Jolod suddenly glared at Chax, who was continuously retreating backwards.

“Chax, do you think I can’t see you if you hide behind? If you had Richard’s perseverance, you wouldn’t have missed out on even a single Secret Realm exploration!”

Chax had a bitter smile on his face; the Adaptation Body was practically inhumane to train. He himself had trained for three months, which was already considered extraordinary perseverance.

But it’s hard to stand out when there are two freakishly talented individuals beside you.

Senior apprentice sister Anna persisted for half a year, and this junior apprentice brother of hers was even more defiant of the heavens, persisting for a whole year without giving up.

He was truly a monster.

…

In the afternoon, Richard arrived early at the laboratory and went with Jolod to the upper levels of the Central Black Tower.

The Central Black Tower was very tall; the lowest fifty floors were the teaching area, floors fifty-one to three hundred were the Wizard’s area, and above that were the living quarters of the Black Tower Great Wizard, the Dean. Not even Wizards could enter at will, except for Deputy Dean Alex as an exception.

Upon reaching the three-hundredth floor, all apprentices granted the opportunity to explore were brought here by their mentors. Among these, there were two apprentices who originally had no mentors, but after the examinations, Wizards immediately took them under their wing.

“Everyone is here,” said Alex as he checked the headcount and looked at his pocket watch.

“Follow me up.”

The way they entered the three hundred and first floor caught Richard off guard; they were expected to take the stairs up.

“Could there be a no-fly enchantment in the area above?”

This question of Richard’s was quickly answered. As the group entered the area of the three hundred and first floor, the environment around them changed abruptly.

In an instant, Richard felt the concentration of Magic Power around him soar by more than a notch, and he even doubted his own senses.

But when he looked at the other apprentices, he saw they were equally astonished.

“The areas above the three hundredth floor of the Central Black Tower have been infused with Secret Realm Fragments by the Dean, so both the space and the concentration of Magic Power are far beyond normal,” Alex explained without turning back.

The apprentices withdrew their surprised gazes and continued to follow their mentors with bowed heads.

They arrived in front of a door, and Alex pulled an oddly shaped key from his sleeve to unlock it. The moment the door opened, Richard and the other apprentices nearly collapsed to the ground.

An indescribable terror seeped out from behind the door. Richard was only exposed to a hint of it, but he felt every cell in his body trembling, and even his Life Core began to operate on its own without any Magic Potion.

Richard’s vision blurred as his body frantically searched for a way to survive.

“Dean, these kids can’t withstand your Life Radiation,” Alex said, somewhat helplessly.

“Ha ha, I think the youngsters this time are not bad. Look at the one Jolod has brought.”

As he spoke, a figure approached Richard’s side.

It was a middle-aged man with a very handsome appearance, and while his hair and beard were unkempt, it gave him a wild and unrestrained bearing.

“Jolod, this Adaptation Body of yours isn’t bad.”

The man placed a hand on Richard’s skull, channeling a steady flow of Magic Power into Richard’s body to assist his Evolution.

In just a few minutes, Richard’s body stabilized.

As his vision cleared, Richard saw an unfamiliar middle-aged man in front of him, looking at him with interest.

“You are…”

The middle-aged man smiled.

“Young fellow, I’m your Dean, the Black Tower Great Wizard.”
