The Lord of Ashes

Erin must have understood Thain's opinion.

Otherwise she wouldn't have been silent for long.

Of course, due to some experiences in their early years, Thain and Irene still have quite different outlooks on life and values.

Thain doesn't want to instill some of his will into Irene. He cares about Irene very much and thinks that it might not be a good thing if Irene becomes like him.

So Thain softened his tone and spoke to Irene from another angle.

"The theoretical lifespan of a first-level knight in the wizarding world is the same as that of our magicians, which is a thousand years."

"But the vast majority of first-level knights will die when they live to be seven or eight hundred years old. This is due to their passive evolution and excessive physical exertion, which damages their body cells and part of their origin."

"You can think of the body-refining experiment I'm doing as a promotion process similar to that of knights."

"Besides, after entering the second level of life, the life span of humans in our wizarding world will be extended to three thousand years."

"A little damage at this stage is nothing at all, and the secret of the Jade Fire Tempered Body seems to have something in common with the secret of the elemental body mastered by the second-level magicians." Thain said in a gentle tone.

Thain's answer finally brought a smile to Erin's originally heavy expression.

Thain is actually not very good at comforting people, but Erin likes Thain's behavior. She can feel that Thain cares about her.

"I can't tell, your ambition is quite high, you are a second-level magician?"

"Also, you know so much information about knights. Is it because you are from a knight family?" Irene asked with a smile.

Thain slowly shook his head and said, "I just read more books. These things are all recorded in the books."

"Oh? Which magic books are there? I'll go read them too." Irene asked.

So Thain told the other party a few book titles.

In terms of extensive coverage, Irene, a magician who has been promoted to the first level for a longer period of time, is really no more than the diligent and hard-working Thane.

After the experiment, Thain went to test his physical fitness as usual.

In the crystal ball, many aspects of information about Thane were transmitted, including reports on heart rate, cell metabolism, and body damage.

This kind of relatively "bold" body-training experiment is not something that can be done every day.

Even if Thain is a first-level magician, his physical endurance has limits. He must implement the most scientific body-refining plan in order to achieve the optimal effect of the body-refining experiment.

I won’t mention the more complex and detailed physical reports. Thain is more concerned about several results.

Mental strength: 02

Magic: 69

Physique: 88

Elemental affinity: fire, light, dark, poison...

It has only been twenty years since Thane was promoted to the first level. His mental power and magic power have increased at such a rate, which is extremely fast among first-level magicians.

This comes from the fact that Thain has just participated in a plane war and has not let up so far.

Whether it is the ongoing body refining experiment or the usual experimental research, all aspects of Thain are in a state of rapid growth.

He is like a sponge, constantly absorbing the nutrients of knowledge.

At least at this stage, Thain has not touched the bottleneck of knowledge. He is interested in everything and wants to study everything.

This kind of personality makes Thane seem to be more extreme than ordinary magicians.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Thain has certain impulses from time to time, or wants to vent.

No matter how busy Thain is with his experiments, he will have close contact with Erin and Selena every once in a while.

Every time Thain behaved very fiercely, the two women's endurance was not strong. As the results of Thain's physical training gradually appeared, it was even more difficult to bear the whipping from Thain.

So much so that there are times when Thain is not satisfied when he enters an ethereal state after finishing his strenuous exercise. A thought occasionally crosses his mind - how about finding a female knight to try?

Of course, Thain's idea is just an idea and has not turned into a fact for the time being.

He is a very busy man. He is busy with his experiments every day and has no free time. How can he find the energy to go outside to find a female knight?

However, the Grant family has sent several letters back recently. It seems that his "great-grandmother" found some good marriage partners for him and told him that if he had a chance, he could go to the Knights Hall in the Oak Empire. .

Thain didn't even bother to reply to such letters.

However, he learned another thing from the letter from the Grant family, that is, his father Grant Sr. (ps: his real name is Kelman Grant) officially joined the Knights Hall of the Steel Wall Fist.

The Knights Hall of Steel Wall Fist is the name of the knights hall where great-grandfather Ulysses and others lived.

The scope of influence of this Knights Hall, which has a history of tens of thousands of years, includes not only the Lycian League, the Kingdom of Western France, the Oak Empire and other human countries, but also some human countries further north that are more prosperous than the Lycian League. sphere of influence.

The power territory of the Blue Origin Holy Tower has many intersections with the Knights Hall of Steel Wall Fist.

However, because of their different focuses, there is no obvious conflict of interest between the two forces.

As a newly built holy tower, the Blue Origin Holy Tower still doesn't have much contact with the Knights' Hall in the surrounding areas.

Only the relationship between the regional Holy Tower Academy war has made the relationship between the Blue Origin Holy Tower and several surrounding Holy Tower organizations closer, including the tower owner Lu Lianman who also has good personal relationships with other Holy Tower owners.

It is a good thing that his father Kelman joined the Knights Hall of Steel Wall Fist, and with the care of his great-grandfather Ulysses and others, at least gaining a foothold in the Knights Hall is not a problem.

Perhaps because he thought of his father, Thain immediately focused on the physical fitness column recorded in the crystal ball.

When Thain was first promoted to level one, his physical fitness was only over 30 points.

Now his physique has skyrocketed to more than sixty points, doubling his figure, which is enough to prove the success of his Jade Fire Body Tempering experiment.

And this is not the end, but just the beginning.

Thain felt that there was still room for improvement in his body-refining experiments.

Second Master Bogagaru's physique is so powerful that he is not far behind knights of the same level, which is enough to prove the mystery of the discipline of Jade Fire Tempering.

At this time, Thain's physique was probably equivalent to that of a high-level knight's attendant. As for the specific difference, it would need to be studied experimentally, and a living body would be best.

According to experimental inferences, once Thain's physical fitness reaches above 100 points in the future, then in terms of physical fitness alone, Thain may be able to be on par with first-level knights of the same level.

Of course, physique is not the same as strength. It is impossible for Thane to fight with others hand-to-hand with a magic wand.

Even his master Bogagaru fought with a powerful elemental body instead of simply using physical attacks.

In essence, Thane is still a traditional elemental magician.

It's just that after tempering the body, Thain's path as a mage can be made wider and further.
