The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

Matthews stood in front of Wizard Andre's laboratory, hesitated for a long time, and finally knocked on the door of the laboratory directly.

He wanted to call Scott to help pass the message, but then he thought that this in-depth communication was of great significance to him, and it would be bad if a third person was present.

At this time, Wizard Andre was concentrating on conducting a necromancy experiment. Although he was not keen on teaching his disciples, he always maintained a high enthusiasm for his own necromancy research.

He seemed a little unhappy about being disturbed. However, when he used his mental power to sense that the visitor outside the door was a strange apprentice, his brows furrowed even more tightly.

However, Wizard Andre still opened the door of the laboratory. He stared at the apprentice in front of him, waiting for him to speak.

Matthews quickly saluted and introduced himself to Wizard Andre: "Master Andre, I am Master Fernando's disciple. Today I came to ask you some questions about necromancy."

Wizard Andre was stunned. He didn't expect that the apprentice in front of him was Fernando's successor. He had always had a good relationship with Fernando, so it was difficult for him to directly reject the other party's request.

He motioned for Matthews to enter the laboratory, then sat on the bench and looked at him: "Matthews, the pharmacy genius, your name is very famous in the academy!"

Matthews was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the official wizard would call out his name. But he didn't show complacency: "They are just apprentices with empty titles. They dare not boast in front of adults."

Wizard Andre nodded. Indeed, no matter how talented an apprentice is, he is still just an apprentice. Just imagine, which formal wizard has not been a talented apprentice?

In this cruel wizarding world, how can you get the favor of your mentor without extraordinary talent? Without the knowledge inheritance of a mentor, it is impossible to achieve extraordinary results by just exploring and researching on your own. How can you surpass your predecessors if you don't stand on the shoulders of your predecessors?

"Very good! Only by being humble can one make progress. Okay, ask whatever you want to ask."

Matthews first introduced himself to Wizard Andre, saying that in addition to studying alchemy, he was also learning necromancy from Wizard Somlia.

After hearing this, Wizard Andre frowned, looking somewhat surprised and puzzled. He thought that if Matthews already had a necromancy mentor, then he should not come to him to ask questions, because this might be seen as disrespecting his mentor.

Matthews knew what Andre was thinking, because he had already considered this. Moreover, this was a hidden rule in the wizard world. Low-level wizards rarely exchanged their knowledge of wizardry, but high-level wizards would generously share some of their knowledge.

In order to dispel Wizard Andre's doubts, Matthews quickly explained: "Sir, I have asked the same question to Teacher Somlia, but he thought my thinking was wrong. However, I am still not satisfied with this, so I decided to ask you for advice."

Wizard Andre immediately became interested. He wanted to hear what profound questions Fernando's disciple had.

"tell me the story!"

Matthews asked his question: "Master Andre, I want to know if the Undead Department has the direction of close combat."

Wizard Andre seemed even more surprised. "Oh, so Scott was asking about this question for you a few days ago. This question is indeed a bit unconventional, because it is somewhat inconsistent with the traditional research direction of necromancy. However, necromancy has a long history, and various attempts and explorations have never stopped, including the research of close combat methods."

Hearing this answer, Matthews was very excited. Wizard Andre was indeed a veteran necromancer. The knowledge of necromancy that he possessed was so extensive that few could match it.

However, the next words of Wizard Andre made Matthews' mood drop to the bottom. He pointed out that although the power of death contained the mysteries of life and death, the path of close combat was not feasible. It could not continuously transform the body like the blood side, nor could it increase the body like the element side.

Matthews was filled with reluctance: "Sir, the power of death can possess the mysteries of life and death, it should not be unable to strengthen the body."

Wizard Andre nodded to show his understanding: "Your idea is exactly what the necromancer wizard thought. However, since ancient times, the use of human corpses for dark field research has been strictly prohibited. This has seriously restricted the development of witchcraft on the dark side. Therefore, the result is already doomed!"

Matthews was shocked and frustrated. So that was the case. The recent ancient times were the beginning of the rapid development of bloodline witchcraft. Influenced by this, other witchcrafts all invested in the research of close combat. However, due to the serious unfairness of the witchcraft rules, the elemental side was able to succeed, while the necromancy system did not work at all.

Matthews felt lost and helpless. He began to wonder whether he should give up necromancy or close combat, as the two paths were clearly incompatible.

Wizard Andre noticed his strange emotions, but he couldn't understand Matthews's persistence. In Wizard Andre's opinion, there are many different research directions for necromancy, and Matthews doesn't have to choose this dead end.

Matthews was filled with resentment. He really couldn't muster much interest in those boring long-range witchcraft battles.

If you are unable to devote yourself wholeheartedly to your love and study of witchcraft, then this painful struggle will only have a negative impact on your witchcraft research.

Witchcraft is the intuitive expression of witchcraft. If we simply study it but do not apply it, what is the meaning of such witchcraft? How far can it lead us?

In this dilemma, Matthews even thought about leaving. However, reason eventually overcame impulse. He took a deep breath and decided to seek help from Wizard Andre.

"Master Andre, do you have any previous research materials on this subject?"

Wizard Andre was stunned. He didn't expect that this young apprentice would ask such a question. Did he really want to embark on this doomed wizard path? He really couldn't understand it.

He tried to persuade Matthews to give up: "Matthews, there is no need to persist. It is doomed to be a dead end! No matter how much you invest, it will be in vain."

However, Matthews was stimulated by this sentence. He shouted loudly and repeatedly: "I don't believe it! I don't believe it!" His reaction shocked Wizard Andre.

He didn't understand why the apprentice was so persistent, but he didn't blame him because this was the true performance of witchcraft researchers - they could tolerate their ideas being questioned, but they couldn't accept being denied.

Wizard Andre looked at Matthews and couldn't help but recall the wizards in the history of the wizard world who chose to commit suicide because their research direction of witchcraft was cut off. It can be seen that such a blow is destructive to the wizard's beliefs.

“Matthews, I don’t know why you are so obsessed with this path, but this is the fact.”
