I Am Doing Daily Tasks in the Wizarding World

Aside from the Troll Manual, there were two other items: one was a “Portable Detachable Fountain Structure”, and the other was a transformation manual for another goblin profession, the “Goblin Mad Hatter Shaman”.

The former resolved a small issue that had been bothering Lynn. That was the issue of drinking water in goblin food and water supplies.

This portable fountain could be placed anywhere, and it would automatically absorb moisture from the air, continually converting it into clean water, thus perfectly solving the water source issue.

Though appearing magical, the structure was actually the result of alchemy.

Upon careful examination, Lynn detected traces of alchemy, but many of the techniques were too advanced for his current level.

After a brief inspection, Lynn put it away.

Then came the final item.

“Goblin Mad Hatter Shaman”.

This was a special group within the goblin community, possessing naturally strong mental strength—thus, transforming to this profession required goblins with powerful mental strength to meet the standard.

Among the goblin community, professions that mastered spellcasting were rare, as most goblins preferred to follow the footsteps of alchemical technology.

The origins of the goblin mad hatter shaman, an extraordinary profession, traced back to a particular plane. A group of goblins who had eaten cursed mushrooms accidentally awakened powerful energy. Unable to guide this power properly, these goblins who failed to control this power were feared and ostracized by their clansmen.

Over time, they gradually learned to harness this power in a peculiar manner.

When casting spells, their bodies would be enveloped in green lightning, serving as their signature. The magic they wielded was imbued with intense instability, potentially leading to secondary explosions, and this instability could also cause some form of mutation in the magic they cast.

If they overutilized the power within them, goblin mad hatter shamans risked losing control, potentially turning themselves into a pile of mush.

Goblin mad hatter shamans had limited learning abilities due to the frequent hallucinations that clouded their minds, severely affecting their ability to think critically and research magic.

The goblin spellcaster looked to be a rather decent extraordinary profession within the goblin race.

Indeed, there was a distinction between magic and spells.

And the two were easily distinguished.

Spells could be cast continuously as long as the caster’s mental energy was sufficient.

Magic, on the other hand, had a limit on the number of times it could be cast per day, determined by the level of the caster’s profession.

Crossing through numerous mazes, traversing vast seas of clouds.

Atop the lofty peak of the mountain in the sky, a large palace sat on the flat mountain summit.

Inside the palace, a circle of densely packed oval mirrors floated in midair.

Each mirror projected a scene, showing real-time dynamic images of various apprentices in the maze.

In the middle of the palace lay a long banquet table. Wizards of various temperaments strolled leisurely on either side of the table, casually selecting ingredients from the feast.

On the table lay a variety of ingredients, some cooked, some raw, and others… even more peculiar. In a fruit plate emitting a faint frosty mist, arranged to resemble a stream, snow-white crystal shells were scattered on both sides of the clear stream. Pebbles were washed by the water flow, emitting a gentle luster. The shells were slightly open, and a milky-white figure clad in a shell bent down to drink water, its face filled with contentment.

A fork descended from above, accurately impaling the figure’s body, accompanied by a slight scream, as the impaled figure fell into the gaping mouth.

“Burp~”

After a casual belch, the wizard began his serious work for the day.

“Hey, anyone interested in guessing who’ll come out on top with the most points in the end? I’m taking bets here,” grinned a chubby wizard with a small mustache.

“Not interested.”

The wizard who had been tapped on the shoulder responded with a cold face.

“Don’t be too hasty in making decisions. In addition to the normal betting odds, the winner will also receive an extra 1,000 ml of Styx Water from me.”

“Cough, you can tell me the rules.”

“I knew you’d be interested,” said the chubby wizard with the small mustache happily.

“Here’s the list of all the competitors this time.”

Competitors?

The wizard furrowed his brow and looked up at the suspended mirrors overhead.

In fact, the wizards in the palace basically paid no attention to these things above their heads, even though they had been hanging there all day.

In the eyes of many wizards, this was just child’s play.

It was just a bunch of apprentices having fun; they were only responsible for recruiting and completing the contract with the person.

“If I bet, can I also get 1,000 ml of Styx Water if I win?” A passing wizard suddenly stopped in his tracks, turning his head with interest.

“Of course, but you can only bet on one apprentice at a time, and the value of a single bet cannot be less than 100 magic stones. Otherwise, if you bet a little on each apprentice, then my Styx Water would be given away for nothing,” Graham joked.

“I’ll bet on that kid then. I bet that kid will have the most points in the end, so I’ll wager three hundred magic stones.” Harin pointed to a mirror in the upper right corner.

Graham followed Harin’s gaze.

“Are you sure it’s him?”

“What’s the matter, can’t I bet?” Harin said.

“Of course, it’s just that I didn’t expect the famous Seventh Demon Wizard to value a commoner so much. I thought you would choose other wizard apprentices. After all, this branch venue is specially allocated by the Mechanist City, and many forces that received the news early have sent apprentices here.” Graham said.

This place was not the only enrollment point on the Wizard Continent, but one of many enrollment points on the vast Wizard Continent.

For the vast Wizard Continent, there were various ways for major powers to recruit students.

“Well, fortunately, I’ve long heard that the star diviners, the leaders of this generation of the Stellar Array Wizard Academy, are always idle and like to open bets. It turns out it’s not just a rumor,” Harin said casually.

“Haha, many famous wizards have come this time. I’ll get back to work.” Graham waved to Harin with a smile and then turned and left.

Harin watched Graham leave, squinting slightly.

Graham came from the Stellar Array Wizard Academy, and the most famous thing about the Stellar Array Wizard Academy was that group of wizards who liked to study divination and the stars.

And Graham, who ranked first among many divination wizards of this generation, though very famous, was not known to many for what he looked like. Outside rumors spread that he was a wizard with peculiar quirks.

Although there were still 29 days left before the summit, some entities could catch a glimpse of a corner of many future possibilities in advance. Harin felt that Graham might see something, otherwise why would he appear at this venue?
