Chapter 314: Chapter 37: The Academy’s Generous Reward (Part 2)

[Upon activation, this item can cast the Level Zero Witchcraft "Space Fold Jump." It uses the Power of Space to create a Space Waymark, allowing for instantaneous movement to another area. Maximum movement distance: 800 meters. Please ensure the target area is free of obstacles such as walls, or there will be terrible consequences.]

[Usage Requirements: 3.5 Spiritual Strength, 80 Magic Pool Capacity.]

[Quality: Excellent (428 uses remaining, rechargeable with Space Crystals).]

[Special Note: Due to its extreme value, please be sure to keep it safe. The bracelet is equipped with a Mimic Function. Please keep this function enabled during daily use.]

Mo Ning was stunned.

’My God!’

’Space Equipment!!’

This bracelet could not only store items but also cast Space Magic. Even among space-related items of the same level, it was in the absolute top tier.

Especially the [Space Fold Jump]. That was definitely a life-saving ability.

Mo Ning glanced at the "Special Note" and found it a little amusing.

The academy was so afraid he might accidentally lose the bracelet that it had specifically reminded him it was a "valuable item" and even pointed out the "Mimic Function."

He privately estimated that the value of the bracelet alone couldn’t be less than 30,000 Black Tower Points.

After all, this wasn’t Apprentice Level equipment at all, but an item prepared for Official Wizards.

If the Magic Breath Technique hadn’t comprehensively improved the strength of Apprentices, the academy would never have rewarded him with something this good.

[Reward Four: You will receive the space-related Witchcraft Item, "Travel Safety House." Activating this item will grant you a safety house with an area of forty square meters.]

[The safety house is equipped with facilities for studying, sleeping, washing up, and dining, providing the user with more comfortable living conditions in the wild. The safety house has an invisibility function that automatically activates upon deployment, reducing the probability of being discovered.]

[The safety house comes with a House Spirit Butler who can monitor the surrounding environment 24/7. It will immediately issue a warning to the user upon detecting any danger.]

[The safety house is enchanted with the permanent Level Zero Witchcraft "Solidification Technique," granting it strong resistance to attacks. The safety house also comes with the Level Zero Space Magic "Space Shield," which can defend against powerful Witchcraft attacks.]

[Usage Requirements: 2.0 Spiritual Strength, 50 Magic Pool Capacity.]

[Quality: Excellent (500 uses remaining, rechargeable with Space Crystals).]

[All reward items will be delivered to your residence within five minutes. Please be ready to receive them.]

Mo Ning almost let slip a curse from his past life—"Holy shit."

He had read in various manuscripts and notes that magical safe houses like this were extremely difficult to obtain, even for an Official Wizard.

This one was of Excellent Quality and even came with a "Space Shield." Its starting price was probably 100,000 Black Tower Points.

[Reward Five: Your work, "In-Depth Analysis of the Birch Magic Breathing Technique," has been listed in the Black Tower Library. The borrowing fee is set at 10 Black Tower Points.]

[For ten years, with each loan from the Black Tower Library, the academy will collect 5 Black Tower Points, and you will receive 5 Black Tower Points.]

[After ten years, the royalty split will be adjusted. The academy will collect 7 Black Tower Points, and you will receive 3 Black Tower Points.]

[Special Note: To ensure your personal safety, the academy will conceal the author’s name for both the Birch Magic Breath Technique and this work.]

The final message about "concealment" made the corner of Mo Ning’s mouth twitch.

He naturally understood that his own strength was too weak. The Wizards on the council were worried that if the author’s name were leaked, it could bring him great danger.

The academy’s concerns were not unfounded.

Just imagine, if the Dark Wizard Organization found out he was the creator of the famous Birch Magic Breath Technique, would they find an opportunity to kill him?

The possibility was high.

The ones who came after him would likely be Dark Wizards at the Official Wizard Level.

Mo Ning couldn’t help but reflect, ’The academy really is generous to its geniuses.’

Although it was nominally a "buyout," the academy still reserved a share of the royalties for him through his work.

Assuming 30,000 Apprentices were willing to borrow the book, this portion of the income was estimated to be around 150,000 Black Tower Points.

Adding the Black Tower Points and item rewards from the academy, his total earnings this time were no less than 330,000 Black Tower Points.

If he had gone with a pure royalty-split plan, he might not have necessarily ended up with this amount.

Most importantly, treasures like the [Buda Space Bracelet] and the [Travel Safety House] couldn’t necessarily be bought even if one had the money.

So, Mo Ning sincerely muttered, "Praise the academy! Praise Master Yi Lin!"

Without Master Yi Lin’s strong recommendation to the Academy Council, such a wonderful opportunity would never have fallen into his lap.

「Two minutes later.」

KNOCK—KNOCK—

A knocking sound suddenly came from the main door of his residence.

Mo Ning understood at once—the rewards had been delivered.

The two space items couldn’t be delivered to a secure storage locker, so the academy had to arrange for a "courier."

He excitedly walked to the door, pulled it open, and immediately saw an old acquaintance.

No, it was more of an old equine acquaintance.

It was the same Skeleton Warhorse that had delivered [Dawa’s Grocery List] last time, its body wreathed in pale, cold flames, standing motionlessly at his door.

Outside the door was no longer a dreamlike valley, but a boundless, gloomy void.

Mo Ning only glanced at it for a moment before his mind went blank.

Even though his strength had improved, his reaction to facing this terrifying Magical Beast again wasn’t much better.

Perhaps his brain short-circuited for a moment, because he opened his mouth and said, "Welcome!"

The moment he said it, he realized his mistake, and his face filled with embarrassment.

He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but Mo Ning was surprised to see that the pale flames flickering in the warhorse’s eye sockets seemed to convey a sense that "it was laughing."
