Low Dimensional Game

The bell at the top of the Wizard Tower tolled. By now, the new fourth generation of wizard apprentices didn’t yet know what the sound of the bell meant, but they knew it was something important, as the faces of their instructors immediately changed. Many of them were elated, as they quickly headed towards the top of the Tower, apprentices in tow.

Bohr was wearing glasses. His features had not changed too much over the years, although he did seem a bit more mature and age-worn, perhaps even a bit wiser and more rational. At a glance, he seemed quite similar to his mentor, Anthony.

The wizarding culture had undergone a significant transformation ever since Bohr had created Blood Witchcraft. The news of its creation had quickly spread throughout the wizard community, causing the culture to flourish.

The development of Blood Witchcraft had expanded from the basic Body Transformation technique, which was every wizard’s first learned technique. Many wizards began devoting their time to Body Transformation and magical beast bloodline research.

All of the wizards were researching how to safely and successfully transplant the spellcasting organs of the magical beasts, in order to gain their powers. However, the number of successful experiments and the number of transplantable abilities were still few and far between. This could be seen via their success rate, which was only around 50 percent or less.

When a transplant failed, it would cause the subject’s genetic structure to collapse. Some of the severe failures would even cause immediate death!

So far, only a few Bloodline Transfusion techniques existed, and the techniques needed to extract stabilized samples were only available within the tower library for a large number of points. The requester must also be an official apprentice of an instructor.

The Wizard Tower also began researching the taming and raising processes for magical beasts. By specially breeding magical beasts with excellent mature bloodlines, they sought to develop better Blood Witchcraft techniques in order to transfer those abilities.

Bohr and the others even wanted to target the dragons, but they could not even defeat the ordinary young dragons. Each time they had tried, they had returned grievously injured, after being chased several thousand miles by the enraged dragons.

As for the red dragon that guarded the Wizard Tower, it was too proud to even acknowledge them. Other than the Tower Master Anthony, all of these wizards were meaningless to the creature.

After so many years of growth and four generations of students, the wizarding culture was gradually growing stronger. Other than the official apprentices of the tower, there were also a large number of graduate wizards, who passed on their skills to unofficial apprentices on the outside. But the number of official wizards was still quite small, numbering less than fifty people, most of whom remained within the Wizard Tower.

Comparatively, there were a growing number of priests of the Church of Light, wielding the divine seeds as they gained power. Their presence, along with the unfathomable influence of the Saints and the Saintess, still suppressed wizard activity within the human kingdoms.

Lu Zhiyu put on a silvery-white wizard’s robe to transform into the wise Wizard Anthony, as he stood at the pinnacle of the Wizard Tower. All of the managers and students of the tower were lined up before him. Other than Wofter, who had not yet returned from the Elven Continent, and Wendy, who was out collecting research materials, all were present.

Lu Zhiyu eyed all of the students present. Most of them had reached level three. Only some of the ones with meager potential had stagnated at level two. But, what surprised Lu Zhiyu was that Bohr was still at level three. Lu Zhiyu’s scan showed that Bohr’s mind power scale was already past 300 scales, yet he still hadn’t broke through to level four!

“What’s wrong, Bohr? Why are you stuck?”

All of them were extremely excited to meet Instructor Anthony. They each had endless questions for him. To them, this mysterious mentor was invincible and all-knowing.

All of the students surrounded Lu Zhiyu, who plopped down at a table. “So, tell me about it, Bohr.”

Bohr nodded. “Instructor, you once said that, in order to reach level four wizardry, one must use mind power to deify one’s own brain cells, so that one can separate out one’s brain, consciousness, and memories. This, you said, would then allow one to become an extraordinary existence. At that time, the level four wizard would be able to form his own wizarding space.”

Lu Zhiyu nodded. “That’s right, your memory serves you well.”

Bohr replied instantly. “Yet, we discovered that we are unable to deify our brains. The mind power and our brain cells seem to exist in two different worlds, which are completely incompatible. At first, we thought this was because our mind power wasn’t strong enough, but even after reaching the threshold for advancement, 129 scales, we still couldn’t do it.”

Lu Zhiyu closed his eyes, thinking back to his own breakthrough. Lu Zhiyu remembered his own mind power structure, recalling how it completely immersed in the zeroth dimension and pulled in a large amount of Source Form to induce a transformation.

That’s right, a transformation.

Lu Zhiyu suddenly recalled that it was precisely because of this transformation that he was able to incorporate mind power into his cells, thus making it interact with reality. He had made the imaginary force affect actual existences.

Lu Zhiyu had initially stumbled past this dangerous phase accidentally via trial and error. By doing so, he could have easily caused his consciousness and mind power structure to collapse and disappear completely from the world.

The activation of mind power!

Lu Zhiyu then focused on this one important detail. This was the crucial criteria for advancing to level four and the true first step for embarking on the path to mythical wizardry. Without this step, mind power remained in the imaginary plane, without any power over reality.

Once the mind power and consciousness merged, the strength of the mind power could hold the consciousness. Every bit of mind power was branded with the individual’s consciousness. This was what allowed Lu Zhiyu to awaken deified cells, while Bohr’s mind power and consciousness had failed to do so.

A high density of Source Form was necessary to stimulate the merging of the mind power and the consciousness. Lu Zhiyu immediately found the root problem of the issue.

Within the magical network, the Source Form was too thin. Therefore, the magical density of the wizards was very low.

Due to this, which caused minimal access, it was not enough to induce the transformation of the quality of their mind power. This was why Bohr and the others had been unable to advance to level four.

Lu Zhiyu opened his eyes and looked at Bohr and his other expectant students. Although only Akkad had reached the bar for advancement, all of the rest were still hopeful about reaching this point one day as well. As such, all of them were very concerned about this issue!

Lu Zhiyu stood up to announce his findings. “I know what the issue is!”
