Chapter 247: Chapter 172: Z... Kulu... Nyagg... Rotip...
The pocket watch is not truly "charged" in the conventional sense, but rather displays an "energy quota."
Once these quotas are exhausted, he doesn’t need to deliberately replenish them; they will automatically refresh to the maximum value at midnight.
Its energy chanism is more akin to a "quota" system.
The role of the Sands of Ti, however, is to expand the maximum energy quota of the pocket watch, rather than simply charge it.
This very trait makes the pocket watch the most stable and reliable among all his rare antiques.
"It seems the Sands of Ti truly hold the key here..."
Ron thoughtfully caressed the surface of the pocket watch:
"If I can obtain more Sands of Ti, increasing the maximum quota to a higher level, the potential of this glory legacy will be even more astounding."
He carefully put away the pocket watch, cald his mind, and began to keenly feel the various changes after becoming an Advanced Apprentice.
Unlike the obscure sensation during the elentary apprentice stage and the faint perception during the middle apprentice stage, now he can perceive the surrounding magic flow with unprecedented clarity.
This feeling was like soone who could previously only observe the outside world through a murky window suddenly gaining a pair of glasses that could see every detail of the world.
Every energy fluctuation in the room, the faint magic remnants contained in the walls.
Even the fine magic particles floating in the air, clearly presented within his perception.
These details, which in the past required full concentration to barely perceive, can now be captured with just a thought.
The most significant change, however, occurred in his casting ability.
Ron could clearly feel that his mastery over the three skilled spells:
Sound Wave Vibration, Sli Splash, and Ring of Brilliance had already ford stable "thought circuits" in his spiritual sea.
This is just as described in The Apprentice’s Ladder:
"When an apprentice masters more than three spells and reaches a level of proficiency, these independent thought circuits begin to interweave, forming an organic whole. This is not just a nurical addition, but a qualitative leap."
Ron attempted to construct the magic model for "Sound Wave Vibration," and was surprised to find that the process, which originally took more than ten seconds, now required only a few seconds.
His spiritual power naturally flowed along the already ford thought circuits, like water rushing down a pre-dug channel, easily and efficiently.
In the past, constructing a magic model required repeatedly checking the precise position of each node and energy flow, with even a slight negligence possibly leading to the collapse of the entire model.
But now, this process has beco almost instinctual, as natural as muscle mory.
"Is this the ’thought network’ ntioned in The Apprentice’s Ladder?"
Ron’s eyes sparkled with surprise and curiosity.
The Apprentice’s Ladder once described:
"Apprentices who et the conditions to advance to Advanced Apprentices will form a complex ’thought network’ in their spiritual sea, with various magic models acting as nodes, interconnected and mutually supportive.
Once this network is ford, casting efficiency and success rate will greatly increase, while also laying the groundwork for mastering more advanced combined magic in the future.
The denser and more complete this network is, the higher the wizard’s talent is deed to be.
Many great wizards ford exceptionally complex thought networks during their Advanced Apprentice stages, which laid a solid foundation for their future achievents."
This change is not only reflected in casting speed but also in the precision of magic control.
Ron discovered that he could more precisely control the amount and direction of magic output, like evolving from a brute who only knows how to swing with all his might to a sword master proficient in controlling force.
Besides these standard changes, Ron noticed a unique phenonon—even after only hearing a few instances of the "ravings," these syllables left an indelible mark in his mind.
During that consciousness battle, to counter the raving attacks of the sea urchin monster, he had to ticulously analyze and record those peculiar syllables.
This process made him realize that the ravings were not aningless sounds, but had a specific structure and intrinsic logic as spiritual waves.
"’Zi... Klu... Niag... Rotip...’ These syllables seem to contain so grammatical structure..."
Whenever Ron slightly recalled, he could accurately recall the arrangent patterns of those syllables:
Whenever the sea urchin monster uttered the syllable "Zi
