There was something that Link was not aware of.
The message that was responded to in the morning and the invitation for an interview was not from this girl, but from the tower spirit of the Third Botanical Garden’s Intelligent Management Center.
Based on Link’s profile obtained from the college’s information network, the tower spirit evaluated that Link had already mastered the secondary Misty Rain Technique and Birth Induction Technique and was capable of handling the part-time position, hence the invitation.
This girl was also working part-time at the Third Botanical Garden, but her position was different from Link’s; she was working as the Deputy Director.
If she did well, perhaps she could remove the prefix “Deputy” and officially join the staff of Ravensmouth Biological and Medical College.
As for the so-called interview, it was just a formality for the Deputy Director. Without a clear reason, like if Link actually didn’t know the secondary Misty Rain Technique and Birth Induction Technique, the Deputy Director could not refuse Link’s appointment.
The girl did try to find fault.
Unexpectedly, Link confidently retorted with a “we can verify it on the spot,” which left the girl speechless.
Hmm…
The girl didn’t start disliking Link for no reason.
She was a local from the West Coast Tudor region of the main continent and went to school in the Junior Division North District. She had paid tuition fees.
Local Wizard Apprentices of the Junior Division North District have always looked down upon the New Blood from the Southern District who didn’t need to pay tuition. They thought of the New Blood as bumpkins coming from remote islands in the Stormy Sea who not only competed with them for educational resources but would also compete for work resources and various other resources in the future.
Therefore, the girl’s attitude towards Link was so cold, and she made no effort to hide her prejudice.
If Link knew what was going on, he would have certainly thought, ‘I simply love to see how you have a problem with me but can’t do anything about it.’
At this moment, there was still time left before the day ended, and Link, after leaving the Third Botanical Garden, did not go to the library to read books.
Tomorrow, he would officially start working part-time in the Third Botanical Garden. Although he didn’t know the reason the girl was so prejudiced against him, as long as he did his work well, he didn’t need to worry about anyone tripping him up.
To be successful, one must first be prepared. So, Link planned to improve his proficiency with the two magic techniques.
Link took a detour to the experimental building and opened a Magic Testing Room.
He practiced the secondary Misty Rain Technique and the Birth Induction Technique repeatedly until his spiritual power and magic power were completely drained. Only then did Link return to his dorm.
He washed up, meditated, and went to sleep.
Since joining the school, this was the first time Link had gone to bed at such an early hour.
…
The following day was Saturday.
During the day, he conducted experiments in the experimental building all day.
Although he had already mastered the secondary Misty Rain Technique and the Birth Induction Technique, it was just the basic level. If Link wanted to improve his proficiency in these two Zero Ring magic techniques, besides using them more and thinking more, he also needed to observe and experiment more.
The three pillars of the Wizard system are spiritual power, magic power, and knowledge.
Knowledge comes from books, from the teachings of teachers, and from observing, analyzing, and experimenting with nature.
By evening, Jasmine didn’t wait for Link to say anything and voluntarily returned to the dorm.
Obedient and cute, yet so lonely, it made people feel sorry for her.
Perhaps that’s the effect Jasmine wanted to achieve? Uptodated from n0v𝒆lbIn.(co/m
Link sighed secretly. The tricks of the bewitching woman were apparently becoming more sophisticated, no longer as naive and rigid as they were at the beginning.
It was a pity that she met Link.
‘Mind Closure Technique’, Wisdom Sword Cuts Emotional Threads!
Link turned around calmly without any distractions, and soon arrived at the Third Botanical Garden.
Link swiped his identification card over the identity recognizer beside the small door and entered the garden smoothly.
His portable smart device vibrated at this moment.
Link took out his portable smart device, unlocked the screen, and found a notice detailing his work content and requirements for the upcoming week.
After carefully reading the notice, Link followed the navigation on the map and headed towards the work location provided in the notice.
The Third Botanical Garden was vast, it had several rows of greenhouse sheds and a large open-field area.
Link would be working in the third greenhouse of the third row for the next week. He was responsible for using the secondary Misty Rain Technique on the plant seeds that had been sown in the soil in the shed, moistening the seeds and awakening their vitality.
Once inside the shed, Link found a brief introduction about the seeds at the entrance, but he didn’t find any requirements for using the secondary Misty Rain Technique. For instance, how many times a day should the rain be used or how much rain should be used each time.
Maybe it wasn’t that there were none, but someone deliberately didn’t provide them?
Link thought back to the attitude of the girl yesterday and speculated.
But he didn’t confront her just based on his speculation.
What if it was not treachery, but a deliberate test arranged by the botanical garden?
After all, Link was an Apprentice Wizard in school, and learning was the top priority.
The purpose of the school providing part-time job positions was not to help apprentices earn income, not to save labor, but to allow apprentices to better apply their knowledge in practice and better master witchcraft.
Thinking this way, Link squatted down and randomly chose a few places, dug out seeds from the soil.
Combining the course “Botany” in his mind with the knowledge he taught himself in the library, Link quickly determined that these were indeed Silver Star Flower Seeds by comparing their shape, color, size, and other aspects.
The Silver Star flower was as its name suggested, once in bloom, it looked like twinkling silver stars in the night sky. It was an extraordinary plant. The pistil can be used as an auxiliary material in several potions that promote wound healing.
This flower was very valuable for Wizard Apprentices.
However, for some reason, there was a problem with this batch of Silver Star Flower Seeds. They had weak vitality and would struggle to sprout without careful cultivation.
Moreover, Link also found that if he simply used the secondary Misty Rain Technique, he could nourish the weak vitality of the Silver Star Flower Seeds, but he couldn’t make them sprout.
Link buried the seeds back in their original spots and dug out more seeds from a few other random places.
As expected, these seeds all had the same problem.
Link started thinking about the solution.
After a while, Link decided to trust in the solution he had thought of under the inspiration of “Pomona Sprout’s talent in botany,” combined with his own knowledge: use the secondary Misty Rain Technique once every morning, twice every evening and the Birth Induction Technique once every two days.
The requirement in the recruitment information from the Botanical Garden for job applicants to master the secondary Misty Rain Technique and the Birth Induction Technique was not without reason.
“So, this is a test indeed?”
Link thought to himself.
Feeling that he had decoded the puzzle set by the school, Link moved in action. His consciousness sank into the Sea of Consciousness, and he proficiently constructed the Magic Blueprint for the secondary Misty Rain Technique.
A few seconds later, it started to rain inside the greenhouse shed.
When the set amount of rain had fallen, more than half of Link’s spiritual power and magic power had been drained.
Without avoiding the dirt, Link sat down on the furrow and quietly went into meditation.
There were two types of meditation.
One was the Deep Meditation that Link did every night before sleep. It consumed a large amount of spiritual power, solidifying the structure of the Rune, with the aim to increase the quantity of spiritual power and absorb magic power.
The second type was the Shallow Meditation that Link was doing now: restoring spiritual power and magic power.
After recovering to a full-state, Link made it rain one more time and then ended his work for the day.
