The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

Matthews sat on the bed, his mind was in a mess, and it was difficult for him to meditate quietly. Because he had doubts about the power of death witchcraft, but today, the lonely departure of Master Somlia made him lose the opportunity to ask the master for advice.

In addition, ten kinds of witchcraft have been engraved on his staff, which makes him eager to test his strength through actual combat.

For Matthews, the upcoming points battle is undoubtedly a valuable opportunity for learning and growth. This battle within the academy will not only allow him to personally witness and compare the pros and cons of various witchcraft, but also teach him how to respond flexibly under pressure, thereby comprehensively improving his witchcraft combat skills.

Therefore, this points battle is of great significance to Matthews and cannot be missed. It is regarded as a transitional test for a true life-and-death battle. Compared with the cruel and ruthless battles in the outside world, the battles in the academy must have certain safety measures, which allows apprentices to fight and exercise themselves while ensuring safety.

You know, if you fail in a fight outside of the academy, it often means paying a heavy price, or even your life. And if you face a truly brutal fight without any training, it will be tantamount to committing suicide.

The original intention and goal of this battle were very clear: to train apprentices and divide them into different levels.

All third-level apprentices must participate in the points battle, and their results will directly affect their status in the academy and their future development path.

Apprentices who rank at the top usually receive more attention, and they can obtain more preferential treatment and resources when obtaining tasks or learning new knowledge.

In contrast, lower-ranked apprentices may experience more difficulties, such as difficulty finding suitable team partners and being at a disadvantage when allocating tasks and benefits.

Therefore, the points battle is not only a test of the apprentices' strength, but also a challenge to their adaptability, strategic planning and resource management capabilities.

The points battle will be held in three months, and the official announcement will be released in one month. To participate in this battle, Matthews must be promoted to a third-class wizard apprentice within three months, and the main challenge he faces is the insufficient accumulation of spiritual power.

According to the "Death Wing" meditation method, a third-level apprentice needs to be able to freely outline all the will runes - twelve basic runes and twenty-four filling runes. This is a prerequisite for constructing the first level of spiritual consciousness space.

Matthews must enhance his mental strength as quickly as possible so that he can complete the outlining of all the runes at once, but he is currently far from reaching this level.

Given the urgency of time, Matthews decided to use a meditation-aiding potion to improve his meditation efficiency. He already had some medicinal materials for making this potion, but he lacked the key main materials. Therefore, finding and collecting these main materials became his top priority.

The next day, Matthews entered the laboratory of his mentor Somlia. The mentor was busy at the laboratory table, and he had regained his usual calmness and concentration.

After finishing the work in his hands, the wizard Somlia turned around and faced Matthews. Before the latter could salute, he asked directly: "Matthews, do you think I should consider changing the direction of witchcraft for Annie?"

This question made Matthews slightly stunned. He didn't expect that his mentor would ask for his opinion on such a private matter. But since he was asked, he had to respond.

He pondered for a moment, then replied: "Teacher, in my opinion, given Senior Sister Annie's personality, she may not be suitable for learning death-side witchcraft."

Matthews said this because he knew very well the complexity and depth of the death side magic. This kind of magic often requires the researcher to have a deep, introverted and slightly eccentric personality. Although Senior Sister Anne is smart, she is more outgoing and lively, which is somewhat inconsistent with the characteristics required for the death side magic.

After hearing this, the wizard Somlia nodded, agreeing with Matthews's opinion. He had long noticed Anne's confusion and distress when learning the death side magic. But is it too late to change direction now? This made him fall into deep thought.

After a while, the wizard Somlia came back to his senses from his contemplation. He noticed that Matthews was still standing there, as if waiting for his response. He asked curiously, "Matthews, you have come to see me for two consecutive days. Do you have any special problems?"

Matthews thought for a moment, then replied, "Teacher, I have engraved several spells on the staff, but I found that their power seems to be not as strong as other side spells.

After hearing this, the Somlia wizard nodded slightly and sighed: "This is the difficulty of the death side. During the apprenticeship stage, we can't even really exert the fur of the power of death, so how can we expect to reveal its true terrifying power?"

In the early stages of learning the Death Side, due to the lack of in-depth understanding of the principles and nature of the power of death, the apprentices were simply unable to effectively control and use this power.

To truly demonstrate the power of the power of death through witchcraft, it must be done after becoming a formal wizard. With the continuous in-depth research and understanding of the power of death, wizards can gradually grasp its deep principles and essence, and gradually demonstrate its true power.

Therefore, the power of the same witchcraft performed by a formal wizard and an apprentice will be worlds apart.

Because of this, the number of students on the Death Side has always remained at an extremely low level, and it is even more difficult for those who achieve success. After all, it is extremely difficult to become a formal wizard, and there is really only one chance left.

A mysterious light flashed in the eyes of the Somlia wizard: "Just like my necromancy, only when you can build your own necromancy array can you gradually exert the true power of necromancy. That is the beginning of the true mystery of the power of death."

"Necromancer Array?" This term was completely new to Matthews. His curiosity was completely aroused and he repeated it involuntarily.

The Somlia wizard looked at Matthews's eyes that were eager for knowledge, smiled rarely, and began to explain in detail: "The Necromancer Array is one of the greatest creations of necromancy. It was created by the great Lord of the Dead, Phelps, who drifted to the Necromancer plane before he became the Lord of Wizards. He created it according to the unique rules of this plane."

Through the necromancer array, the necromancer can establish a connection with the undead plane, and then borrow the power of that plane to enhance his own combat effectiveness.

The wizard Somlia also gave Matthews a detailed introduction to the basics of the dead plane and its importance to the necromancers. He hoped that this information would inspire Matthews' interest in and desire to explore the death-side witchcraft.

Matthews was deeply shocked by the true power of wizards. Not only did they possess extraordinary abilities, but they could also communicate and summon across different planes.

The Somlia wizard talked about signing a contract with the undead creatures of the dead plane and being able to summon them to participate in the battle, which made Matthews very interested in necromancy.

However, during this process, Matthews suddenly fell into deep thought, and he had a disturbing idea: Was he a being summoned by a powerful wizard through some kind of magic formation?

This thought chilled him to the bone, but at the same time deepened his fascination with necromancy. He realized that his exploration of necromancy was not a lonely and helpless journey, but a road full of infinite possibilities and fantasy.

Although necromancy may seem mundane at the initial stage, its development potential and broad prospects are full of expectations. Matthews is eager to personally explore the mysterious and magical dead plane, establish contact with the dead creatures there, and deeply experience the true mystery of necromancy.

At this moment, Matthews firmly believes that the path of witchcraft he has chosen is the right one. Although it is difficult, it is also full of hope and passion.
