6: Energetic Green
Combining the study plan left behind by his predecessor, Glynn formulated a new one, striving to maximize the effectiveness of his talent.
First, he significantly reduced the time spent practicing wizardry.
It was changed from three hours a day to half an hour.
At the same time, he increased the study time for cultural courses that required reading wizardry books.
He also temporarily put aside his chores in the Demonized Plants cultivation field.
Since Glynn had already taken a three-month leave before going into seclusion, he didn't need to worry about this.
Finally, he decided to focus intensely on one cultural course: the thirty-six phenomena of rune construction in 0-ring low-level wizardry.
Because this course involved the profound mysteries related to segmented spellcasting, and the previous Glynn had not grasped segmented spellcasting, he naturally couldn't pass this assessment.
Glynn first took out the textbook for this course, then dug out his previous notes, and put them all into a satchel made of fine linen and griffin beast hide. Then he went out the door... "Oakes, are you going to the library?" Glynn shouted towards the second floor from the doorway.
At this moment, a beautiful woman with a head of rose-red hair, wearing a silk white chiffon nightgown, leaned halfway out of a fourth-floor window.
She had very distinct Highlander ancestry.
High nose and blue eyes.
Her forehead was high and rounded.
Her snow-white face, however, revealed a hint of oriental softness.
Her entire delicate face was rosy-white.
On her skin, as smooth as milk, not a single pore could be found.
Perhaps because she had just woken up, her chest, still clad in a nightgown, inadvertently revealed a hint of spring.
The beauty, still drowsy, lightly raised her red lips and said,
"It's Glynn. Oakes went out."
"I heard you passed a wizardry assessment. Congratulations!"
"When shall we get together and celebrate for you?"
...Glynn looked up.
He stared blankly at the boundless spring scenery.
With his thirty years of single life in his previous existence, he critically evaluated, 'Hmm, this is truly immense.'
And this soul-stirring beauty, this captivating older sister's voice that could kill without consequence.
Every frown and smile perfectly aligned with his aesthetic preferences. No wonder the previous Glynn was so infatuated with Ellie.
Which official could withstand such a test!
..."Hey, Glynn, why aren't you answering? Why do you look so silly?"
Ellie, who hadn't received a response for a long time, asked again.
"Nothing, Oakes and I already celebrated yesterday. Next time..."
"Next time, when I complete the five-year grand examination, let's celebrate together."
After saying that, Glynn quickly fled, hurrying towards the Wizard Tower as if a flood of beasts was chasing him.
"Hmph, why is he running so fast? Why does Glynn seem a bit strange today?"
"Did he drink too much yesterday and it affected his brain?"
"Oakes said Glynn was overjoyed last night and drank three large glasses of rye ice beer. Glynn usually doesn't drink that much."
Ellie, completely unaware that she was the culprit, was still making wild guesses... "Oh, how embarrassing!"
"This is absolutely not my fault!"
"To think I was single for thirty years, watched over three thousand young women in short videos, what kind of world haven't I seen? How could I make such a fool of myself?"
"It seems the original Glynn was still a rookie."
"This is understandable. In such an information-undeveloped medieval setting, Glynn didn't have many opportunities to experience things..."
"No, I must not be swayed by beauty."
"Women will only affect my study efficiency."
"First sword ashore, first slay Ellie!"
...Sitting on the fourth floor of the Wizard Tower, in his usual spot in the library.
Half an hour passed, and Glynn was still building up his mental fortitude.
The influence of his predecessor's memories, combined with Ellie's charismatic aura, was a double blessing, making the temptation too great.
However, Glynn was, after all, a seasoned veteran, rich in experience.
Although he had a younger and more vibrant body, he still understood what the primary contradiction was and knew his own capabilities.
That even his well-informed self was instantly captivated showed the immense charm of Ellie.
Glynn was certain.
If Plant Heart Wizard Academy were to elect a 'campus flower,' Ellie would definitely be on the list.
That was not something the current Glynn could even fantasize about.
After settling his restless heart again, Glynn slowly immersed himself in his studies.
Thanks to the segmented spellcasting experience of the Seed Germination Technique,
the problems that had previously stumped Glynn were being overcome one by one. Glynn, swimming in the ocean of knowledge, cleared all obstacles and made rapid progress.
His initial curiosity and novelty of encountering mysterious rune knowledge sustained Glynn.
It wasn't until his stomach rumbled and his body signaled hunger that Glynn was startled awake...
He looked at the clock on the wall.
Glynn then realized that, without him noticing, it was already ten o'clock at night.
For the first time, Glynn felt a sense of growing vigor the more he studied.
It seems that once one learns the segmented spellcasting of a wizardry and uses it as a model for expansion, this knowledge of runology is not difficult to master.
Of course.
If there isn't a sufficiently in-depth example to refer to, relying solely on imagination will not allow one to understand what these complex rune phenomena represent.
The previous Glynn was a good example.
Glynn packed up his things and prepared to go back; he hadn't meditated yet today.
In the free dining area on the first floor, Glynn generously rewarded himself.
He devoured three angus steaks, two extra-spicy chicken burgers, and a large cup of freshly squeezed apple juice.
"Hmm, really good..."
"It seems that not only the 'involution' gene attribute came with me, but also the 'foodie' gene attribute, which is ingrained in my bones."
...Back on Blue Star.
Glynn had always worked hard, joining everyone in the relentless pursuit of studies and work.
But inevitably, there were times when he felt down.
Listening to the music on NetEase Cloud Music would also deeply resonate with him.
So Glynn developed a habit—
Whenever he was in a bad mood or under great pressure, he would binge eat and gorge himself.
The more he ate... the more delicious the food... the more satisfied and happy Glynn became.
Glynn let out a satisfied burp... Looking at the apprentices in groups of twos and threes on the first floor, eating while engaging in discussions, some fierce, some impassioned.
And in the brightly lit Wizard Tower, dimly visible figures were buried in their books.
Glynn couldn't help but shiver, 'No, I can't slack off.'
Once rested, he would continue working.
Glynn immediately got up and returned to his dormitory.
In the meditation room, Glynn meditated according to his usual standards until his Spiritual Power was exhausted before stopping and returning to his bedroom to rest.
After all, meditation is a process of continuously outlining spiritual runes with Spiritual Power, and then refining Spiritual Power using those spiritual runes.
With Glynn's current Spiritual Power, one hour is enough to exhaust all of it.
And Glynn is a pauper, a capital P pauper... He has no magic stones to buy potions to restore Spiritual Power, so he can only rely on sleep to recover his Spiritual Power.
Fortunately, Glynn is young now, his body is highly active, and he recovers quickly.
Generally, about six hours of deep sleep is enough to fully restore his Spiritual Power.
