With George's help, the mortgage for the apartment was progressing smoothly. Within a week, George had helped Connor with all the paperwork at the bank. Afterwards, Connor, Mr. Piazza, and the Sanchez Bank sat down together and completed the mortgage that involved tens of thousands of pounds.
Connor had successfully become the real owner of the apartment, but because of this, he owed the Sanchez Bank a huge sum of 9,000 pounds, becoming a loser!
"Phew …"
Sitting cross-legged in his bedroom, Connor slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. His eyes revealed an unconcealable excitement.
After settling the problem of the apartment, he had been focusing all his energy on healing his spiritual injuries.
"A.I. Chip, scan my Spirit Ocean to see if the spiritual injuries have completely healed." Connor silently commanded in his heart.
[Beep! Following the host's will, the task is established. The estimated time to complete the task is 10 seconds … Mission completed. The trauma caused by the overdraft of the host's spiritual power has been completely healed. There are no sequelae left. It won't affect the host's breakthrough to intermediate apprentice at all! "The familiar cold female voice sounded in Connor's mind.
The corners of his mouth curled up in a relaxed smile. Connor's heart was now extremely carefree. His spiritual injuries were a huge problem, but now they were completely resolved. The next step was that he could finally focus all his energy on breaking through without any hindrances.
Whether it was his magic power or spiritual force, Connor was now at the peak of a beginner Apprentice. In addition to the Mana Gathering Potion that Varga had given him and various other methods, Connor believed that he had at least a 50% chance of breaking through this time.
Thinking of this, the smile on Connor's face disappeared. He decided to strike while the iron was hot and not delay any longer. He would try to break through today. After all, he had already prepared everything that could help him break through.
Evening
In the attic on the top floor of the apartment, Connor laid out pieces of shiny black metal according to a certain pattern in the attic. As Connor's attainments in alchemy increased, Connor also began to study an important branch of Reyes Alchemy — Alchemy Arrays.
What Connor was doing now was to set up the "Spiritual Insight" alchemy array that Reyes had modified. The so-called Spiritual Insight alchemy array was a type of alchemy array that had been passed down for a long time, used by spirit type Magi to assist in breakthroughs. Activating the array would allow a large amount of pure energy to be gathered within the array for a short period of time, and the spiritual force would also be greatly enhanced within the array. It was a powerful tool for spirit type Magi to break through their cultivation.
But Connor's "Spiritual Insight" array wasn't the original "Spiritual Insight" array, but rather the "Spiritual Insight" array that had been improved by Reyes. The biggest difference between the two was the concealment and fusion! ,
According to the common belief of the Magus World, "Spiritual Insight" was an alchemy array that had been passed down from the Byzantine era. And in that era, the Magus civilization had achieved rapid development. Black Magi were still in a state of freedom, so they didn't have to worry about the energy changes caused by breaking through their cultivation.
As for Connor, he obviously couldn't ignore this point. If he didn't properly deal with the energy changes caused by breaking through his cultivation, he was afraid that even if he successfully broke through to become an intermediate Apprentice Magus, he would have to face the crazy pursuit of the Church of the Storm! And Reyes's improved "Spiritual Insight" alchemy array perfectly solved this problem. The array's concealment function would completely cover up the energy changes.
As for the second characteristic fusion of the improved "Spiritual Insight" array, Connor couldn't help but ponder over it.
If the original "Spiritual Insight" array was 100% helpful to Magi who only trained in the spirit element, then it was only 50% helpful to Connor who trained in both the darkness and spirit element. And after Reyes's improvement, the "Spiritual Insight" array could also be driven by people to absorb the energy of other specific elements from the heaven and earth. It could also provide 100% help to Magi who trained in other elements!
Why was Connor pondering over such a good improvement?
The reason was very simple!
Because why did Reyes want to improve it? Under normal circumstances, when people improved something, it was because they had a need. They wanted to use this thing to satisfy their needs.
The first characteristic of the improvement, concealment, was very easy to understand. It was to avoid unnecessary trouble. As for the second characteristic, fusion, Connor remembered that Reyes had once told him that he was a spirit element Magus like himself. And he added this characteristic of fusion to the "Spiritual Insight" array. Did it mean that he and Connor were both training in other elements besides the spirit element?
Hearing this news made Connor very excited. He felt that he seemed to have touched upon the secret between him and Reyes. Yes, until now, Connor still firmly believed that the reason his mentor took him in as a disciple and treated him so well was definitely not as simple as simply wanting to pass on his knowledge.
Behind Reyes' smile, there must be a scheme. As for what the scheme was, Connor did not know. He could only hope that Reyes' scheme was beneficial to him, or rather, not harmful to him.
After arranging the last piece of metal, Connor's lips curled into a smile. Arranging an alchemy array was something that tested the concentration of a Magus. If one piece was not arranged properly, the entire array would have to be redone.
Sitting in the middle of the array, Connor adjusted his body and mind to the best state. Soon after, he solemnly chanted an incantation in a low voice. Following the sound of his incantation, the attic he was in strangely rose with a dense fog. Following the rise of the fog, the dark and spiritual energy in the attic also rapidly gathered.
Taking out a bottle of energy gathering potion that Varga had made for him from his spatial ring, Connor drank it all in one gulp and swallowed it all into his stomach!
Abundant!
This was the only feeling Connor had now! He felt that his entire body was now brimming with energy, and his ears seemed to be able to hear extremely enticing and mysterious ravings.
Although he had already expected this, the appearance of these mysterious ravings still made Connor nervous. According to the records of Reyes's cultivation experience, these ravings were the enticements of certain indescribable and mysterious existences to Magi. Once one let down one's guard and was enticed by these ravings, death would be the best outcome. In the worst case, one would lose one's will and become a monster that was neither human nor ghost!
