Outside of Denan City in the Kingdom of Saint Ellis, there was a 17 story magic tower that attracted a lot of attention. This magic tower had been closed for a few months. Although there were rumors that the owner of this magic tower, Wizard Dunn, would never come out again, as long as the magic tower was closed, it meant the owner was still alive.
When the master of a magic tower went into seclusion, it would usually be sealed off. All of the disciples and servants would leave the magic tower, and all of the magic circles in the magic tower would be activated. The master of the magic tower would only rely on 'hunger potions' to get through the days of seclusion.
If the owner of the magic tower died, the spirit of the magic tower would become ownerless, and the Wizard Union would take over the magic tower. They would distribute the wealth according to the wishes of the owner, and the rest would be taken down along with the magic tower.
Therefore, as long as the spirit of the magic tower was working, it meant the owner was still alive. Wizard Dunn was just like that.
Wizard Dunn was sitting on the top floor of the magic tower. There were 10 bottles of red wine beside him, and he had already finished 9 of them.
Wizard Dunn had been a rank 17 wizard for a few hundred years. Since he was proficient in lightning spells, his fighting power was much higher than normal wizards.
Lightning spells were a special kind of spell. Most wizards could not master lightning spells even if they spent their whole lives studying them. The biggest thing about lightning spells was the imbalance in power.
When normal wizards used lightning spells to attack, there was a very high chance that they would inflict 1 point of damage. This was inseparable from the characteristics of lightning spells. Normally, lightning spells would only inflict 1 point of damage, and the difference between the maximum damage and the minimum damage could be a few hundred points.
The most important thing for a lightning wizard was to have lightning talent. Therefore, although Wizard Dunn did not have many lightning wizards, his fighting power was the most explosive. Lightning was the fastest spell to hit the enemy, and it also had the unique paralyzing effect of the lightning element.
Wizard Dunn had made a lot of contributions on the battlefield, but he was stuck as a rank 17 wizard. His body had been eroded by mana for a few hundred years, and he had taken large amounts of potions. His body was in a very weak state.
This was why he could no longer level up. Of course, elite wizards could extend their lifespan in other ways, but he did not want to live like that. Therefore, he returned to the Holy Continent to cultivate some seeds for the lightning element.
At first, he thought he would die of old age in the Holy Continent, but a few months ago, his disciple, Wizard Morton, brought him 10 bottles of red wine. At first, he didn't care too much about it. Although he was a noble when he was young, and he liked red wine a little, after years of training, he barely touched it.
However, after he took a sip, he realized the meaning of this red wine. Therefore, he decided to go into retreat. He told others that he was going into a retreat, but in reality, he had high hopes of leveling up..
The reason was simple. The red wine sent by Wizard Morton could slowly adjust his body. His body, which was already damaged by the corrosion of magic, the side effects of potions, and aging, was slowly recovering.
Therefore, as soon as Wizard Dunn realized this, he decided to go into a retreat. This was his last hope for a few hundred years. He did not want anyone to disturb him, and he did not want any accidents to happen. Therefore, the best way was to go into a retreat.
A few months had passed, but he was not in a hurry. He only took a sip of the red wine every day and let the special ingredients in the red wine slowly adjust his body. He had waited for a few hundred years, and now was the most critical moment. He knew he would only waste this rare red wine if he rushed it.
By that point, he felt like his body was brewing a level up. He had been waiting for a few hundred years. A strange energy began to emit from his body. This energy was the energy of leveling up.
The countless years of waiting made him a little excited, but he soon calmed down. Step by step, he began to draw the rank 18 wizard pattern. The energy of leveling up was constantly changing his body.
Outside of the magic tower, 2 intermediate wizards were sitting in 2 temporary tents. These tents were set up on the first day of Wizard Dunn's retreat. The owners of the tents were Wizard Alberta and Wizard Hickok. They were both Wizard Dunn's disciples.
Unlike Wizard Moreton, who had exhausted his potential, these 2 intermediate wizards were still in their prime. They were both important wizards in the Wizard Union of St. Ellis. Their magic towers were not far from here.
However, ever since Wizard Dunn went into retreat, these 2 wizards had not returned to their magic towers. Instead, they were guarding here. Of course, if Wizard Moreton was not responsible for guarding the Duchy of Carmel, he would also be here.
The 2 intermediate wizards were reading a spell book when they suddenly sensed a leveling up energy from the 17th floor of the magic tower.
"Teacher is leveling up!" Wizard Alberta suddenly stood up in joy. At the same time, he reached into his portal bag, and a magic staff appeared in his hand. A wizard's leveling up was the most dangerous. No one could disturb him.
"Alberta, you take the left, I'll take the right!" Wizard Hickok also took out his magic staff and yelled in excitement.
The two of them had been waiting here for a few months just for this day. They didn't want their teacher to be disturbed during his promotion. They didn't go to the Wizard Union for the past few months. They rejected all the things they had to do, and because of this, they lost all the power they had in their hands.
However, they didn't care. Their teacher's leveling up was more important than anything else. It seemed like everything was worth it. Their teacher was finally leveling up.
Wizard Dunn was leveling up in the sky. A mana whirlpool appeared on top of the magic tower. All the mana generated by the magic tower's mana gathering function was sucked into this whirlpool.
At this point, the wizards in the nearby magic towers also saw this strange scene and hurried over. The whole process of a wizard's promotion, especially an advanced wizard's promotion, was a rare experience. It would definitely help them in the future.
Wizard Alberta and Wizard Hickok were very nervous. Therefore, all the wizards that could come had come, which made Wizard Hickok and Wizard Alberta very nervous.
"Don't get close!" Wizard Alberta lowered his voice to the 3 intermediate wizards who wanted to experience it closer.
Those 3 intermediate wizards didn't want to offend these 2 wizards. Although they had been laughing at these 2 wizards for the past few months for waiting outside of Wizard Dunn's magic tower, things were different now. Wizard Dunn had finally leveled up. A rank 18 wizard was definitely one of the top few in the Holy Continent.
The three intermediate wizards smiled and took a few steps back. Then, they sat on the ground and felt the powerful aura of a rank 18 wizard. The other wizards also sat on the ground. At this moment, there were no less than ten wizards sitting 100 meters away from the magic tower.
Wizard Dunn felt the last bit of leveling up energy disappear from his body. At that moment, life force returned to his body. Lifespan was an imaginary word for young wizards, but for an old wizard who was close to death, it was just a matter of time.
Wizard Dunn felt his lifespan increase by a lot. If he worked hard, he might be able to take another step forward in his life.
All of a sudden, he couldn't help but feel emotional. He needed to thank Wizard Moreton for bringing him this magical red wine. Of course, he also needed to thank Wizard Moreton's disciple, Abel. It was Abel who provided this magical red wine.
Now that he had received such benefits from Abel, he couldn't help but feel a little weird. As the most prestigious wizard in the Holy Continent, he had received such a huge favor from a disciple of another generation. This kind of thing made Wizard Dunn feel a little sad.
Now that he had leveled up, he was thinking about how to repay Abel as soon as he got out.
