Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

Chapter 815: Chapter 5 Reunion_2 Chapter 815: Chapter 5 Reunion_2 Link didn’t have the ability to let Lokan rebuild from scratch, but he could make do with an alternative solution.

If an entirely new 2.0 version of the from-within Construction couldn’t be achieved, settling for a 1.5 version of Construction would suffice.

The so-called 1.5 version of Construction still involved external implementation, but it adhered to the principles of integration, systematization, and modularization.

Integration meant that the implanted Construction, whether a single piece or a set, should be unified with the Wizard’s learning to form a cohesive whole.

Systematization meant that implanted Constructions were interconnected, complementing and interlocking with each other.

Modularization meant that implanted Constructions could be combined and matched differently according to varying circumstances.

One-piece casting was indeed excellent, but it was challenging to achieve perfection.

Modular assembly, even though slightly less strong, offered more comprehensive functionalities and was simpler and more convenient.

After Lokan had the new 1.5 version of Construction implanted, his combat power soared to the second place in the Grande Sage Army.

Upon Construction activation, after transforming into The Green Giant, his super strength + super speed + super agility + super endurance + super resistance + various killer moves allowed him to exchange blows with Link in his normal mode.

Lokan truly wanted to put his strength to the test against a newly-promoted Water-Based Fourth Level Demon.

What a pity.

“Commander, do we pursue?”

Chief of staff Drozan Lorry quickly reacted and asked for instructions.

“Don’t chase a defeated enemy; let’s leave it at that,”

Link, somewhat deflated, gave the order and then entered his private space.

Lokan was not the only one eager to test his strength.

Having ascended to a Sage and founded the Construction Wizard Sect, Link was full of ambition and also wanted to test himself, displaying his saintliness in public.

Sage Palo, during his campaign against the Fairy World, slew a Demon and thus established unparalleled prestige within the Palo Sage army.

Link likewise wanted to replicate such a feat.

Unfortunately, the Abyss Demons were not cooperative.

This left Link quite frustrated, and he had to look for another opportunity.

This way, the occupation of this Water World by the Grande Sage Army was a done deal.

After about half a month of influence, the World Spirit of the Wizard World had completely contaminated the World Spirit of this Water World.

The permanent Inter-Dimensional Teleportation Portal was finished.

Due to the need for dominion and Link’s specific interests, the structure of the Teleportation Portal was that of a floating castle.

This move, although accidental, completely subdued the Merman tribes that previously harbored some resistance.

As creatures of the sea, Merpeople could only look up at the sky, never having conquered it.

Even the greatest Sea King, an Extraordinary being of Level 5, never built his palace above the sky.

And the most recent Level 4 Sea King, who was pathetically injured by a regular strike from Link in his normal mode and then brutally beaten to death by Lokan transformed as The Green Giant, was even more pitiful.

The first inter-dimensional campaign of the Grande Sage Army thus drew to a close.

Not quite satisfactory.

Because it failed to meet the predetermined goal of annihilating an Abyss Demon army, the campaign seemed to fizzle out towards the end.

All that remained was to ruefully acknowledge that life is full of disappointments.

Leaving the army stationed in the Water World to rest and continue practicing battle tactics, Link alone returned to the Wizard World Homeland.

This action, of course, was approved by the College.

After all, there was a reason behind it.

“How’s the situation?”

Upon stepping out of the Inter-Dimensional Teleportation Portal and greeting Jasmine who came to meet him with a warm hug, Link immediately inquired about the important matters at hand.

“It doesn’t look very optimistic. Sage Serene has done everything she could. Whether Christina can survive or not depends on her own willpower.”

Upon hearing this, Jasmine’s expression grew somber.

It was Christina, who had long been out of touch, who had suddenly shown up in Ravensmouth City seeking Link’s protection.

Jasmine followed their secret agreement and when she found Christina, she was already at death’s door, barely clinging to life.

Before losing consciousness, Christina disclosed that she had discovered a piece of information crucial to Ravensmouth College.

Instead of hastily alarming the College, Jasmine sought the help of Sage Serene after realizing that her medical capabilities were insufficient to heal Christina.

As for Link’s return to the Wizard World Homeland this time, the College’s approval was not because of the information mentioned by Christina.

Officially, the College was still unaware of this matter.

Before dealing with the temporary task assigned by Ravensmouth College, Link handled some private affairs, and no one had any right to intrude.

“Let’s go, let’s go back and see.”

Link and Jasmine quickly returned to the villa in North City District.

Christina was settled in the underground laboratory.

After Sage Selene stabilized Christina’s injuries and preserved her life, she returned to the main world of Ravensmouth College.

Her Potion Study research had reached a crucial moment, and she couldn’t afford to be too distracted.

Entering Christina’s sickroom, Link examined the situation and found that Sage Selene had done everything she could.

Ravensmouth College wasn’t lacking better and higher medical technologies; it was just that Christina’s current condition couldn’t withstand such consumption.

“We can only wait.”

The conclusion Link reached was the same as Sage Selene’s.

Jasmine had already known this and was not surprised.

After a pause, Link asked, “Does Garona know about this?”

Because of some past events, Garona grew up much faster than her peers.

Now capable of walking, running, jumping, and speaking, she had already begun her enlightenment learning.

Moreover, given Garona’s unique situation, Link decided to make her the first Apprentice of the Construction Wizard Sect.

Conveniently, the special suit “Shadow Demon Snake Devouring” originally designed for Garona accidentally matched the approach of version 2.0 Construction, which with slight transformation, could evolve from being an external implant to internally self-generated.

Furthermore, Link and Sage Selene, borrowing some techniques from Intelligence Mechanism Wizards, designed a solution for Garona’s soul troubles, endowing Garona with spiritual power far superior to normal humans.

Whether in quality and quantity, or in precise control abilities.

And because Assad Kenneth’s wife, Renee Clarke, was about to give birth, Jasmine took the opportunity to take Garona into her own home to raise her.

“The little one is very smart and, moreover, there is a special bloodline sensing between her and Christina. She knew about it on the first day she arrived.”

Jasmine spoke of this matter with a hint of lamentation.

After learning her biological mother was seriously injured and on the brink of death, Garona showed no emotional changes; she continued doing what she needed to do.

Every action she took defined how one might describe a cold-blooded animal.

Although Link and Sage Selene had tried their best at the time, it seemed they still hadn’t completely eliminated the influence of the Demon Snake bloodline.

“Let’s keep a close eye on her.”

That was the only arrangement Link could make, and after speaking, he looked at Jasmine with apologetic eyes.

The task transiently issued by the college was urgent. After a hurried gathering, they had to separate again.

“You should go, just be safe,” Jasmine said, although reluctant to see Link go, she didn’t beg him to stay and instead offered him some words of caution.

“Sure.”

Link left the underground laboratory and came outside the villa.

The flying machine arranged by the college was already waiting; he couldn’t afford to delay even a moment longer.

Jasmine stood at the villa door, hands placed over her stomach, watching as the flying machine ascended.

The flying machine headed east, crossing the entire West Coast to reach the Central Plains.

The destination of this journey was the Supreme Council.

Strictly speaking, this was still the first time Link had traveled such a long distance in the Wizard World Homeland without using teleportation.

Although he was somewhat puzzled as to why the convenience of teleportation wasn’t utilized, and instead, they had to spend such a long time flying, Link remained silent and did not ask.

The flying machine landed at an airport, and as Link disembarked the cabin alone, he immediately saw the person who came to pick him up.

“Long time no see, Elise.”

Link greeted her while walking down the gangway.

“Long time no see, Link.”

Elise, however, was very enthusiastic, running up for a big hug.

The full fruit on the slender branch pressed hard against his chest as Elise buried her head deeply into Link’s neck, took a deep breath with a slight frown.

She smelled Jasmine on him.

And…

Suppressing a sourness that emerged inexplicably in her heart, Elise whispered softly into Link’s ear,

“Thank you for killing me, Link.”
