The Wizard: Starting with the Omniscient Cube

Chapter 106 Reaching the Limit, the King Squid Reappears)

"Now I have 3 points, let's try switching again."

[Consumed 1 knowledge points]

[Converting to 1 element factor has reached its limit; conversion is not possible]

A brand new prompt appeared before Lin Wei's eyes. He thought he was hallucinating, rubbed his eyes, and showed a surprised expression.

"Finally, the limit has been reached."

At this moment, within Lin Wei's palm-sized brain, countless tiny fish were swimming around, making it seem somewhat crowded. He clutched his head, a troubled expression on his face.

"I can break through now." Lin Wei grinned. "Meditation techniques aren't that important. Everyone used pretty much the same ones when they were wizard apprentices. The Azure Sea Meditation Technique is pretty good too."

Lin Wei didn't have that obsessive-compulsive need to use the best; the total amount of elemental factors in his mind was already the envy of many. He patted his head, a confident expression on his face.

"Now imagine yourself as a vast, expansive blue sea, controlling all the elemental factors to tear at the edge of the sea. The larger the tearing area, the larger the new blue sea becomes, and the greater the increase in mental power."

Lin Wei began reciting the methods within the meditation technique, trying to understand them. He frowned and muttered incantations.

"Tear? My elemental factors are all gentle little fish, how can I tear them?" Lin Wei wondered, scratching his head with a puzzled expression.

However, he still gave the order, and in an instant, these small fish that usually swam leisurely suddenly bared two rows of sharp teeth and began tearing at everything around them.

"So elemental factors are that powerful?"

The bizarre scene startled Lin Wei. He trembled and took a step back, staring into deep thought as his brain expanded.

"The area being torn out is getting bigger and bigger." Lin Wei's eyes widened, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

"Now it's the size of two palms... three palms..." Lin Wei's mouth was agape, his eyes fixed on the brain area.

"Nine palm-sized." Lin Wei was numb, his body frozen in place.

Before long, the elemental factors stopped tearing each other apart and slowly swam around in a larger area, a stark contrast to their previous ferocious and menacing behavior.

"The area is nine times larger, so wouldn't that mean it can store another 2999 element factors?" Lin Wei muttered to himself. "You know, 1000 element factors is the brain area of ​​a first-class wizard apprentice."

Before Lin Wei could finish speaking, he felt dizzy and fell into a daze, his body swaying.

"By the way, once the brain is torn apart, it's time to start breaking through to the next level of mental strength."

Lin Wei fell into a coma and collapsed on the boat.

……

Several days passed, and a thin layer of mist shrouded the sea, making the small boat appear and disappear intermittently. Lin Wei slowly woke up, feeling something crawling on his face.

"What the hell? It's all sticky."

He jumped up to check if his limbs were intact. He saw that the deck of the small boat was covered with a lot of marine life, looking quite messy. A sea snail the size of a washbasin had just crawled onto his face. The sea snail was slowly wriggling.

"I almost forgot, it's a big no-no when going out to sea alone. If some sea creatures jump up halfway, I'm doomed." Lin Wei quickly swept the deck clean. He held the broom and worked swiftly. "Luckily, I've caught most of the sea creatures nearby, so it's not a big problem."

"My mental strength seems to have improved a lot."

Lin Wei felt his mind was clearer than ever before. He took out the energy crystal he had prepared beforehand and threw it at the crystal. The crystal drew an arc in the air.

"37 Hz!"

Lin Wei stared intently at the numerical values ​​displayed on the energy crystal, his mouth slightly agape, lost in thought. The surrounding seawater rippled gently, making a soft sound.

"A first-class wizard apprentice can only cast spells at around 20 Hertz, which is similar to my knight form. But now, I just casually tossed out a bubble, and it far surpasses that of a first-class wizard apprentice." Lin Wei's eyes lit up, his face full of surprise, and he jumped up excitedly. "Is this the reward for breaking through with 299 elemental factors? It's really different from others."

"I have to go back. It's not good to stay out too long. The Endless Sea is, after all, the territory of the sea creatures. If a sea creature comparable to a first-ring wizard suddenly appears, I'm doomed. I'll go back to the organization and lie low for a while, and then digest the resources I've gained these past few days." Lin Wei said as he quickly walked to the ship's wheel and gripped it tightly with both hands.

Lin Wei took the helm, preparing to return. A gentle breeze blew across the sea, ruffling a few strands of hair on his forehead.

Just then, on a small boat not far from him, a storm of thunderclouds suddenly appeared, with dark, swirling clouds visible even from a distance.

"This little boat is in trouble. This thundercloud storm is quite large." Lin Wei frowned, his eyes showing worry. As he looked around, he filled his small boat with fuel, his movements were very efficient, making the boat row faster.

"Ledo, the first-class wizard apprentice who sold me the ship, is quite conscientious. The fuel tank is full, and a whole ship of fuel costs two points. He's a good friend," Lin Wei muttered, stroking his chin and smiling slightly.

From afar, he could see the Rubik's Cube-like fluctuations emanating from the small boat and the sheer number of sea creatures appearing—they were on completely different levels. On the sea, waves surged one after another.

Lin Wei pricked up his ears to listen.

"Help me! My defenses are crumbling!" a wizard apprentice on the ship cried out, his voice filled with fear and anxiety, pleading for help from the others.

"It's over, something pierced my chest, I'm not reconciled." A wizard apprentice fell, his chest a bloody mess, his eyes wide open, helplessly watching his limbs being submerged.

"Hold on, everyone! The distress signal has been sent out." A first-class wizard apprentice, his forehead covered in sweat, struggled to stay afloat as he watched the increasing number of sea creatures on the deck, his hands constantly waving his wand.

Lin Wei looked on helplessly, both nervous and relieved, his mouth slightly open: "This ship is going to be lost, but thankfully it wasn't one of our organizations." The look of relief on his face was very obvious.

Just as these wizard apprentices and the sea creatures were locked in fierce combat, a large black shadow suddenly appeared beneath the small boat. The shadow, like a small mountain, completely covered the more than ten-meter-long boat and instantly rose up, burying it directly into the seabed.

boom!

A small boat, along with the wizard apprentices engaged in battle, sank directly to the bottom of the sea, leaving only a small whirlpool in which the seawater spun rapidly.

"Damn it, another giant squid? This thing is strong enough to fight a first-ring wizard." Lin Wei was horrified, his eyes widened, and his body trembled involuntarily. "Dead ship, run! If this giant squid isn't full, it'll be in trouble if it comes looking for me."
