Chapter 194 Mine Supervisor, Crown of Elements Scholarship, New Goal
Ian looked at the three tasks.
I clicked on the detailed introduction.
"Mission One: Stormspear Warband - Captain, one of the Academy's wizard warbands. The captain is responsible for commanding over a hundred wizards, with a quarterly contribution of 3000 points!"
"Task Two: Academy Central Hub – Deputy Inspector of Element Pool Scheduling, responsible for the auxiliary management of the Academy's advanced element pool and below, including qualification review, etc., 2800 contribution points per quarter!"
"Task 3: Lava Crystal Mine - Quality Inspection Supervisor, responsible for the final quality assessment and review of all lava crystal ore in the 'Lava Crystal Pit' mining area, with a quarterly contribution of 2800 points!"
Looking at the three tasks.
Ian frowned immediately.
To be honest, apart from having a slightly higher contribution point, he didn't see how it was any better than Andrei's duties.
Just as Ian was wondering...
But then I noticed small words between each of these tasks, which seemed to be Kieran's additions.
"The Stormspears are the wizarding chapters that the academy uses to explore undeveloped areas. They have numerous opportunities for combat, relatively abundant resources, and will participate in the academy's wars later on, which will greatly benefit the future development of wizards..."
The smaller print details its benefits.
This immediately caught Ian's eye.
It turned out to be the case.
He wondered how it could be so ordinary; it turned out to be the core battle group for future breakthroughs.
If one were to mingle among them, one could likely reap considerable benefits when war breaks out in the future.
Ian was very satisfied.
But Ian didn't choose it.
"Are you kidding me? This is undeveloped land!"
Ian's lips twitched.
There are quite a few undeveloped areas in White Stone Territory, but those that haven't been developed yet are obviously the most difficult and dangerous.
Even if you have a lot of resources, you still need to be alive to get them!
Ian never forgot his advantage: his need for resources was not as great as that of ordinary wizards.
His enhanced talent made him need fewer resources.
Let's look at the second one.
"It allows me to make connections with a large number of high-ranking wizards in the academy." Ian's eyes narrowed slightly.
It's short, but actually quite good.
After all, connections are useful everywhere.
What about the last mine? Ian was curious about how this mine was arranged among them.
"Lava Crystal Mine - Quality Inspection Supervisor, Fire Attribute Mine, extremely beneficial to fire attribute wizards, and quite lucrative. Furthermore, within the mine's mountain walls, there are several naturally formed fire-patterned stone walls," bearing faint traces of ancient fire runes, all at least Tier 1!
Seeing that the first two messages didn't particularly appeal to Ian, he raised an eyebrow when he saw the last one.
"Fire-patterned Stone Wall"!
Tier 1 Rune!
Ian stared blankly, his eyes suddenly becoming strange.
He wasn't interested in the others, but he was truly moved by this one.
For him, runes represent knowledge, and knowledge represents talent points.
Moreover, it's a fire-attribute mine.
He is currently studying fire-based witchcraft, and in this environment, learning witchcraft and making progress will be much faster.
Although the contribution points were 200 fewer than the first one.
But it's no longer of any importance.
So Ian looked at Kieran and said, "Teacher, I choose the position of mine supervisor."
"Sure, but why not choose a warband? Now is a great time to join one!"
Kieran nodded and asked.
"I'm very interested in the fire-patterned stone walls of the mine," Ian said directly, without hiding anything.
"Yes, your talent in magic is outstanding, so this is a good choice. Many of the runes on the stone wall have not yet been fully deciphered. If you can decipher them and contribute them to the academy, it will also be a contribution point."
Kiran reminded him.
Ian's eyes lit up immediately.
Wow, you can do that?!
An unexpected delight.
"Since you've chosen this role, I'll give you a week to rest and recuperate before you can take over."
Kieran nodded and said, then looked at all the wizards, including El, "There is one more thing for this group of wizards, and that is the Crown of Elements Scholarship."
Ian was taken aback.
What new term is this?
"This is a scholarship from the academy for all newly promoted first-ring wizards. It's awarded every five years, and there should be about three years left. I have one spot here, and I will select one based on your progress over the next three years."
Kieran looked at El, Andre, and Ian and said.
The three of them were stunned.
Because they have no idea what it is.
Kieran's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable weight: "The reward for this spot is very precious."
He paused, then slowly said, "One opportunity to enter the main courtyard's secret realm. The duration depends on the individual's ability to endure it, but it will be no less than three days."
Upon hearing this, all the wizards except the three of them gasped in shock.
It was as if it were something very precious.
Kieran continued, "In addition, there is a large amount of contribution points and resource funding from the academy, as well as certain library access unlocks."
"Teacher, what is the main courtyard's secret realm?"
At this moment, Ian pursed his lips and asked.
He took a deep breath, feeling for no reason that this might be similar to the scene he had seen in the main courtyard back then.
Kieran said, "The so-called secret realm is actually a special space that stores many unique inheritances of the academy, and even inheritances of the second ring."
"Moreover, the formation of the secret realm is very special. You can immediately master many of the inheritances within it once you learn them. There are even some special insights left behind by wizards who died in the academy. These insights are very beneficial to wizards. You can find traces of almost all the precious knowledge of the academy within it."
Kieran's gaze was profound. "Of course... whether or not one can make any discoveries depends entirely on personal opportunity and comprehension."
Ian narrowed his eyes slightly.
Based on the description alone, Ian felt that the knowledge he had seen before was most likely contained within it.
Moreover, there's also library access unlocking.
Ian has also learned these days that although first-tier knowledge wizards can be exchanged with contribution points, it is only limited to the ordinary level.
Since Kieran mentioned it, it's clear that unlocking permissions refers to a higher level of sorcery.
In this way...
Then you absolutely must get this scholarship.
However, the competition is equally fierce. First is Andre, whose talent is actually outstanding, otherwise Kieran would not have valued him.
Even among those at the Crescent Moon level, he is an outstanding individual, only his magical talent is somewhat weaker.
And El, needless to say, possesses a Crescent Moon-level talent.
Defeating her would be even more difficult.
Fortunately, Zilean doesn't look at pure numbers, but rather at a comprehensive performance, or even progress.
Even so.
The difficulty of this competition is ridiculously high.
But we must strive for it.
Whether for the sake of that particular knowledge or for the distant prelude to war, he must become powerful as soon as possible.
Otherwise, once war begins...
At that point, he wouldn't be able to do as he pleased.
In any case, five years from now, he will have to advance to the mid-stage or even late-stage of the first ring.
Otherwise, with only the strength of the initial stage of the first ring, one would be nothing more than a large cannon fodder in this kind of academy-level war.
"Getting busy!"
"First, secure the scholarship and advance to the mid-stage of the first ring."
Ian took a deep breath.
His gaze hardened.
