I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature

Chapter 666: 497

"We haven’t learned much of substance about magic, at this stage all we’ve learned is the basic knowledge... It really broadens one’s horizons," Katrina said with some emotion in Zheng Yichen’s embrace, her voice filled with awe for the knowledge system of this world.

Here, what is considered fundamental knowledge at the bottom rung could be the lifetime achievement of a witch in her world.

Such knowledge in her world would drive any witch mad with desire, yet here it can be acquired with just a bit of money, even just within the financial means of the Level 2 low tier wealth range.

What’s more, the richness of knowledge available in the libraries they can access here is staggering. The libraries in this world are like electronic databases, some with books in physical form, and others like magic disks that store knowledge.

"It’s just that we can only borrow physical books," Katrina said with a hint of regret. They only had a rudimentary understanding of the ’magic disks’ form of book thus far.

"That’s simple, you focus on learning the basic knowledge system first, and we can buy the rest of the books later," Zheng Yichen patted Katrina on the shoulder, whispering the suggestion to the young girl. Now, thanks to his hunting, he had more money than he could spend, so buying magic-related books wasn’t much of an issue.

The young girl in his arms spoke of the problems they had encountered while studying, specifically with the books related to evil spirits.

Physical books don’t hamper their learning, but there were simply too many books they wanted to read, and one or two months was too short a time, even if Eileena could perform a very special kind of necromancy on Wise Dragon No. 9.

However, that form of necromancy was still at a rudimentary stage, not quite turning her into a being like an intelligent program. Of course, being at this stage was enough to make her akin to a humanoid computer, but the biggest issue still lay in the source of information acquisition.

The use of magic was prohibited in the library, and they could make good use of the knowledge from the classes by taking diligent notes, making the prepared necromantic skill seem rather... ineffective, or rather, lacking a place to apply its power.

Putting all that aside, the knowledge they acquired in a week of study would probably have been unattainable in their own world in a witch’s lifetime. Even if they now returned to their own world, devoid of Equilibrists, they could still become top-level witches there.

And that was still under the premise that their remedial classes weren’t yet complete.

The duration of the basic remedial course for magic ranged from three months to half a year, depending on the individual’s progress. Those with good talent learned quickly and finished in three months, while those with average talent took around six months. If one exceeded this timeline, they’d need to pay again and start over.

After all, the purpose of these remedial classes was to shore up the mage’s lacking foundations, and repeating them several times had no adverse effects... However, repeating too many times was no better than being an ordinary magic student and having to retake several years.

"This kind of knowledge deeply captivates us; I don’t want to go back anytime soon," Katrina’s fingers lightly traced over Zheng Yichen’s chest. She used to be a girl who dreamt of a happy life, but now, having been exposed to more profound knowledge, she was beginning to transform more into a witch.

Of course, as an elder among witches, Eileena had offered her some advice. The magical knowledge of this world was too comprehensive and extensive.

To achieve results, they either had to start over like ordinary magic students, progressing step by step, slowly graduating and gradually mastering more magical knowledge—a process that took over ten years, and that was just the transition from a mage’s entry-level to intermediate level.

The other option was to continue to expand on the parts they were already proficient in.

"Then let’s proceed step by step; it’s not like we can’t go back, and this world is quite nice," Zheng Yichen said with a chuckle to the young girl. "Klakauska and I have seen quite a few places this past week. Although there are wars happening, this world is mostly at peace."

As long as the world is big enough, it can appear relatively peaceful; wars in a massive world only happen in relatively ’small’ areas. Landen City, because of the existence of Dusk Territory, is considered a land of peace, and the same is true for other cities with divine signs; they hardly encounter any wars.

The most fundamental reason is that no one wants to offend a being such as a god.

Of course, once war breaks out in these areas, it’s not something ordinary people cause. More often than not, a godly war would ensue, and in that case, it’s just a matter of fate.

But Landen City didn’t have much to worry about; if anything happened, you just had to take shelter in the Dusk Cathedral. Even if the outside world were to collapse in World Destruction, it wouldn’t affect this place.

"But that would take too much time," said Katrina, her voice tinged with melancholy. "I can’t keep up with you."

"You don’t have to keep up; I will take you with me," Zheng Yichen smiled, aware of what the young girl cared about. His personal circumstances were exceptional, or else Dusk would not have favored him. As for the speed of growth, well, how should he put it?

It was like leveling up during an event, with all sorts of experience points buffs maxed out, allowing him to reach a level near the cap in a short period. That’s why others saw his growth as incredibly swift, and those close to him saw it even clearer.
