"Levan?" Lor raised an eyebrow and immediately clicked to connect the communication.
Even if this kid didn't send a communication request, he would have called to ask about his progress on the Elemental Analysis Problem, as well as check in with the other students and Kateya.
It's already the year 1830. If they don't make good use of their time, these guys each have no more than a lifetime nearing its end.
A light screen appeared floating in front of his desk.
In the light screen, Levan was wearing the Third Ring Legislator Wizard Robe. His previously somewhat aged face had returned to a youthful appearance, with a radiant smile. "Mentor, I've successfully made a breakthrough."
At this moment, he resembled a child who had scored a perfect hundred on a test, proudly showing off his achievement to his elder.
"Hmm, I see."
Lor couldn't help but smile. "Not bad, very good. You've given me a surprise."
"But don't become complacent and slack because of this. The Fourth Ring is just the beginning; your future road is still quite long."
He wasn't speaking empty words; he genuinely believed that Levan had the potential to achieve the Seventh Ring in the future.
The reason being...
Would Yasen not give Levan that marvel capable of repairing the Origin Container after breaking through the Seventh Ring?
"Yes, Mentor." The smile on Levan's face retracted, and he nodded earnestly.
"Alright, that drop of breakthrough dew you have on hand is no longer needed. Just give it to Villan. I still have two drops left for Beck and the others, just enough." Lor instructed.
"Okay, I'll go right away," Levan replied.
After ending the communication with Levan, Lor dialed Colin and Beck, gave them some guidance, and then let them come and take the breakthrough dew.
Then he also chatted with Kateya, Agular, Villan, and Van.
Kateya still wasn't too confident about breaking through the Fourth Ring on her own, to which Lor had no solution.
Agular was living lightheartedly these days, while Villan had already started preparations for breaking through the Fourth Ring.
He had successfully solved the fifth Space Rune Analysis Problem, raising his confidence for breaking through the Fourth Ring to thirty percent, which was the best he could reach.
As for Van, with his terrifying spatial talent, he had become a Third Ring Spatial Mage along Lor's path in just over three hundred years.
The progress on the Space Rune Analysis Problems had surpassed Villan, having solved the sixth problem.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would solve all eight problems in at most three hundred years. Without any need for further experiences, he would be entirely confident in breaking through the Fourth Ring, without Lor having to worry at all.
After handling various trivial matters, Lor continued to deduce the fusion junction between the Space Disruption Witchcraft and the Great Dissolving Technique.
According to the estimation, it would take at least another hundred years to deduce all the junctions completely.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 1842, July 5th.
91st floor of Lor Wizard Tower, inside a large Cultivation Room.
"Everything that can be optimized has been optimized. I should attempt to break through." Kateya looked at the three Core Witchcraft in her Sea of Consciousness and made up her mind, directly activating the Meditation Rune Model to draw together the three Core Witchcraft.
Over the years, the optimizations she had made on the three Core Witchcraft were negligible.
This indeed was the limit of what she could achieve; dragging it out any further was meaningless.
Half a year later.
"Puff—"
With her eyes tightly shut, Kateya suddenly spat a mouthful of fresh blood, her face turning pale. She slowly opened her eyes and sighed bitterly, "I am ultimately not as good as Assistant Amy."
Since Lord Lor became a Legislator of the Wizard Alliance, she had been determined to become someone like Assistant Amy.
Unfortunately, ideals are just ideals; she ultimately succumbed to reality.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 1853, October 20th.
Lor's second student, Villan, attempted to break through but ultimately ended in failure as well.
A thirty percent confidence level was still too little, in the end.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 1933, June 11th.
Lor's fourth student, Beck, attempted to break through and failed.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 1950, January 1st.
Top floor of Lor Wizard Tower, inside the study.
A light screen appeared behind Lor's desk, in which was the now-grown and handsome fifth student, Van.
"Mentor, I've completed all eight Spatial Analysis Problems." Van stated, an astonishing revelation.
"Haha, good."
Having been troubled by the continuous failures of two students and Kateya, Lor's face suddenly showed a gratified smile upon hearing this. "When do you plan to advance to the Fourth Ring?"
To complete all eight problems, the probability of breaking through to the Fourth Ring is one hundred percent.
In other words, as long as Van was willing, he could directly become a Fourth Ring Spatial Mage.
"Sometime soon." Van replied.
"Very well. Once you break through, do you plan to continue along my path or explore a different direction?" Lor asked.
In fact, he quite hoped Van would continue along his road, as this alignment in witchcraft research direction would save both of them considerable effort.
But such matters need not be forced, as even if Van chose a different path, it would still greatly benefit Lor.
"Mentor, I want to create a new Four Ring Witchcraft, is that alright?" A trace of longing flashed in Van's eyes.
Compared to unchanged inheritance, he hoped to explore new directions, as the unknown is always enticing, provided that the mentor agreed.
In relation to exploring the unknown, clearly, his mentor's opinion was more important.
Over the past four hundred years, he had come to regard Lor as his closest elder.
"Of course." Lor nodded with a smile, "I've always said from the start, your path is for you to choose."
"Thank you, Mentor." Van deeply bowed in gratitude from the bottom of his heart.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 1951, August 8th.
Van activated the Meditation Rune Model, smoothly constructing the Origin Container, without any mishaps.
Thus, the second Fourth Ring Spatial Mage was born.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 1960, March 6th.
Lor's third student, Colin, ultimately couldn't solve the fifth problem, and facing the end of her life, had to attempt breaking through to the Fourth Ring in despair.
With only twenty percent confidence, she couldn't successfully break through to the Fourth Ring on her own and had to reluctantly advance with the help of the breakthrough dew.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 2005, August 15th.
The sixth appearance of the players brought new opportunities for the lower-level wizards of the Wizard Alliance.
In two years, they had once again harvested nearly 300 Origin Points for Lor, bringing Cody closer to the Sixth Ring Faith Wizard.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 2350, January 7th.
Milton Continent, outside Francis City, within the Cross-plane Teleportation Array.
Ten Fourth-Tier War Castles floated above the Teleportation Array, quietly waiting to be transmitted.
Outside the Teleportation Array, another ninety War Castles were queuing.
Their destination was a newly opened plane by the Wizard Alliance, the Dragon Eagle Plane.
The Fifth Tier Dragon Eagles in that plane had been completely cleared by the speakers, leaving only seventy-nine Fourth Tier Dragon Eagles.
In Francis' plan, the seventy-nine Dragon Eagles would serve as sparring partners for the Third Ring Mechanical Wizards.
The triple Defense Shield equipped armor on the War Fortresses ensured the safety of the Third Ring Mechanical Wizards, and the speed of the Dragon Eagles would hone their reflexes.
Not to mention improvement, at least they could adapt.
"Buzz—"
With a soft hum from the Cross-plane Teleportation Array, ten War Castles suddenly vanished, heading towards the Dragon Eagle Plane with Francis' expectations.
...
Wizard Calendar Year 2480, December 3rd.
Milton Continent, Francis City, inside the office of the Director at the Energy Research Institute.
"Aaron, take a look at my version of the Energy Loop." Ernie handed a thick scroll bound in sheepskin to Aaron.
After returning from a failed breakthrough, he learned about the achievements of Aaron and Lawson. With the prior insights they had given him on the Small Energy Furnace, he finally decided to set aside his pride and collaborate on developing the Fifth Tier Small Energy Furnace together.
This decision led to quite an astonishing harvest.
Whether it was Aaron's keen sensitivity to the overall Energy Loop or Lawson's skills in drawing Energy Loops, both slightly surpassed him in those aspects.
His strength lay in his comprehensive ability, able to independently create a large framework.
Their collaboration allowed the research to progress ten times faster than before.
"Alright, Director." Aaron nodded and took the sheepskin volume to examine it closely.
