Wizard System: Dissecting a Mutated Monster From the Start

Chapter 39 - Congratulations on Joining the Ancient Ones!



Chapter 39: Congratulations on Joining the Ancient Ones!

“Edward Feylan, congratulations on joining the Ancient Ones!”

There were three bottles of alchemy potions of different colors on the table. Among them were the common Cleansing Potion and the Frenzy Potion.

Compared to them, there was also a bottle of the dual element combination potion: Boiling Potion!

The two contestants surrounding them stared blankly at the bottle of Boiling Potion that was emitting a powerful mysterious fluctuation.

As alchemists, they were different from Edward, who had suddenly become one halfway. They recognized the potion’s name.

It was precisely because they knew this that they understood this victory did not belong to them.

In the eyes of the examiners, the remaining two bottles of potions shone brightly without any impurities. They could be said to be of excellent quality and were also rather perfect!

If Edward had not appeared, they would have hesitated for a while.

But now, Edward was here!

As an old alchemist, Feodor coughed and suppressed his loss of composure. He said softly, “Edward Feylan is the winner this time. I believe that you will not be dissatisfied. To be honest, if the Ancient Ones wanted to recruit more people this year, both of you would qualify, but it is a pity we can’t let anyone else in this time!”

“I hope the two alchemists will work harder. There will definitely be a place for you among the Ancient Ones next year!”

With that, he turned to look at Edward, who had a calm expression.

“As honorable alchemists, we are different from those wizards who only know how to manipulate the elements to destroy things. On the path of alchemy, we seek all sorts of truths and explore the source of everything. It is precisely because of this philosophy that the age of alchemists alone brought glory to the entire world thousands of years ago. Alchemy was popular in the planes that belonged to the Gods!”

“You are now qualified to embark on the path of truth!”

The shock in the eyes of the two failed alchemists did not disappear for a long time after they heard this.

Who was this old man?

He was the Royal Alchemist, the Sage of the Wizard Tower, the hope of the alchemy world…

All of these titles indicated that he had an extraordinary status!

And now, a famous Sage said something like that to an apprentice who had just entered the world of alchemy!

What did this mean?

The two alchemists dared not think further.

Edward was indeed stronger than them both in terms of spiritual power and refinement techniques!

They were completely convinced now. They could only lower their heads and wear the black robes that concealed their identities as they walked out of the competition grounds!

Even though they were failures, in the eyes of the people around them, they were still noble and unreachable alchemists!

“Now, Edward Feylan, signing this scroll means that you have truly joined the Ancient Ones’ faction!”

Feodor solemnly took out a mysterious parchment scroll and handed it to Edward.

“System, scan the scroll contract!”

Edward took the contract and did not sign his name blindly.

He felt that this sheepskin scroll was somewhat special.

[System prompt: Scanning analysis complete. There is nothing wrong with the contents of this scroll. The corresponding undulations are in line with the records of the traveling wizard in the database. It is a language-type spell, and can strongly bind both sides of the contract! If one side breaks the contract, they will receive a punishment of the soul!]

Edward took a quick look at the contents of the scroll contract. There were no traps on it.

The general content was: As long as one joined this organization, they had to abide by the organization’s equivalent exchange principle and complete the missions assigned by the Ancient Ones on time. There were no restrictions on freedom or faction issues.

After confirming that there were no mistakes, he signed his name.

With a flash of fire, the scroll was burnt into ashes in the air.

“Congratulations, Mr. Edward Feylan. We are now part of the same organization!” Feodor smiled at Edward and nodded in satisfaction.

A talented and young alchemist like him would probably be hard to find in a thousand years.

Now, he had picked up a treasure in advance.

The other two examiners also smiled kindly.

It was best for them to befriend such a powerful and talented alchemist.

At the same time, as the ashes of the scroll fell, some information appeared in Edward’s mind, but it was intercepted by the system.

It was information regarding the rules of the Ancient Ones.

Edward, who was an alchemist, had a general task of concocting medicines for those wizards who needed them. Of course, they would also offer the corresponding value in exchange.

After each transaction, they would receive corresponding contribution points.

When contribution points reached a certain level, they could be exchanged for some ancient potion formulas.

Edward, who had more or less understood the rules, followed the three examiners to the base of the Ancient Ones.

There were already quite a number of people standing here. They were all people who had just passed the assessment.

Edward’s arrival attracted everyone’s gazes, which were filled with friendliness.

Everyone knew that it was an alliance mate who had passed the alchemy assessment and entered the faction of the Ancient Ones.

Most of them joined the Ancient Ones for the equivalent exchange rule provided by the Ancient Ones!

Under everyone’s gaze, Edward followed the examiner to a dark passageway.

“In the Ancient Ones, the alchemist faction adheres to the teachings of the wise ones, regardless of age, strength, or knowledge.”

Edward came to a platform, but the three examiners did not come up.

“Please wait a moment. We are currently generating data for your body and designing the corresponding attire and identity badge for you!”

Edward felt the platform rise from the ground, and a white light enveloped his body.

[System prompt: Mysterious power has been detected invading the host’s body. No dangerous fluctuations detected. Allowing access as per the host’s will.]

Half a minute later, Edward walked off the platform.

At the same time, Feodor handed him a badge and a platinum-edged robe made of magic power.

“A long robe that belongs to us alchemists and a badge that proves the identity of the Ancient Ones. Imprint that badge on your favorite spot and it will generate a tattoo.” As Feodor spoke, he showed the mark on his arm.

It was a special badge of the Ancient One’s alchemist branch.

It was constructed from snakes and flames.

Here, the ancient meaning of snakes represented seeking the truth, while flames represented tempering.

Seeking the truth on the path of tempering!

A smile appeared on Edward’s face as he looked at the gorgeous robe. He had finally accomplished his objective!
