Weird Wizarding World

  Chapter 401 Secret of Ancestors

  Colin held his breath subconsciously, restraining his movements even more.

   But in fact, he doesn't have to be like this. Now that he is advanced to the second-level knight, what he has brought him is an improvement in all aspects.

  Even if you don’t use witchcraft, you can still make yourself as dead as a mudstone, let alone use witchcraft now.

  The hidden figure in the air in front of him, his strength is unknown, but he obviously didn't notice his existence.

  ‘Could it be that this is the person carrying the treasure identified by Anando’s dice? '

  Lightless Forest is inaccessible, and there are not many monsters left in recent years. Basically, no wizards will come here.

   From the location given by Anando's dice to the time he came here, it was only ten minutes, such a short time... The probability of meeting the second person is obviously not high.

  Colin pondered secretly in his heart.

  The hidden wizard in front of him probably came to the sea of ​​trees because of the sudden explosion in the distance.

   Just as he was thinking, the light from the explosion in the distance gradually dissipated, and the sky returned to the dark background.

  Colin couldn't help but shifted his thoughts from the unknown figure in front of him to the sudden explosion.

  The bright light of the explosion came first and dissipated first, but the breeze stirred up by those shock waves is still blowing.

   Compared with the unknown wizard in front of him, it is obvious that the unknown explosion in the distance may have a greater impact.

   Another moment passed.

  Colin's skin trembled slightly, and he keenly noticed the sudden flow of air next to him.

  ‘Is this going to leave? '

  The wizard next to him began to move at an extremely fast speed.

  Colin's heart trembled. With this speed alone, this hidden wizard was at least at the second-level advanced level.

  But unlike what he had imagined, the hidden wizard did not return to the lightless forest, but flew into the distance.

  As the distance got farther, the perception became more and more blurred, and the figure of the wizard was about to disappear.

  Colin hesitated whether to follow up, but finally decided not to make a mess.

  It's just a treasure, and it's not a high-level meditation idea, he doesn't lack it.

  Blessing himself with flying witchcraft, Colin returned to the golden wheat ears.

  After advancing to the second-level knight, perhaps because of his own flying ability, the speed after using Flame Dive is much faster than before.

   At least, it is still a bit faster than the wizard who left before.

  Similarly, the speed during diving is probably the same.

  Just as Colin was carefully feeling the changes in himself, he suddenly froze for a moment, subconsciously slowed down his speed, and looked ahead.

  'Such a coincidence? '

   There seems to be nothing in front of it, but there is obviously a surge of air!

  Colin didn't expect to meet the hidden wizard who left before him.

  Although they only flew for a while, according to the flying speed of their second-level wizards, the distance they have traveled is already considerable.

  The sky is vast, and to be able to meet again by such a coincidence can only explain one thing——

   This hidden wizard is heading in the same direction as him!

  Or... Colin also had a startling guess in his mind—could this wizard... be heading for the same destination as him?

   His eyes flickered, Colin dispelled the flying witchcraft, and silently followed behind the hidden wizard relying on his knight strength.

As time went by, looking at the familiar scene below him, Colin's thoughts became more and more turbulent. He said that he was tailing, but in fact he just slowed down a little-until now, the flight path and his original return to the golden wheat ears The road makes no difference at all!

   After a while, the figure of the golden wheat ear appeared under the moonlight.

  The most prosperous city in the Loen Kingdom, there are still many lights shining at this moment, which are continuous under the night, like a sea of ​​stars.

  But what Colin was more concerned about than the sea of ​​stars in front of him was that the hidden wizard started to slow down his flying speed.

   After a while, Colin came to the most familiar area on weekdays, watching the hidden wizard quietly fly into the White Tower.

  Colin stopped not far from the White Tower, his expression still a bit shocked.

  'It turned out to be Wizard Erwin...'

  Second-level strength, as well as the White Tower, the true identity of the hidden wizard is self-evident. It is obviously Erwin Ruen, the only second-level wizard in the Kingdom of Loen today!

  ‘But… what is Wizard Erwin doing in the Lightless Forest so late? '

  As the mystery was revealed, came new doubts, and Colin couldn't help frowning.

   At the same time, he also remembered another thing - in the past two years when using Anando's dice, there are often white towers in the positions given.

  Wizard Erwin possesses some kind of treasure...it's no surprise.

  But it is a bit puzzling to go quietly to the lightless forest in this late night.

  Colin looked at the White Tower in front of him, but he still didn't move forward after all.

  Erwin could not detect his existence in the open environment before, but if he was in the wizard tower, it might not be the same.

  The risk is too high... Colin suppressed his curiosity and quietly returned home.

  ………

   "How to unravel the secret of the ancestors?"

   On the third floor of the White Tower, Erwin walked into the meditation room with a gloomy expression.

  Tonight, I got nothing again... Could it be that the Loen family can only decline like this?

  He stood quietly in the center of the meditation room, his body was slightly hunched, and the skin on his face was loose and wrinkled.

  Worries are everywhere like glue mixed in the air, wrapping Ervin in it, making him almost suffocate.

Ding.

   Erwin took out the golden token that Huntington gave him today, and stroked it lightly.

   This is a pendant, the irregular rhombus shape is the symbol of the Ishtar School.

  If such a small pendant is placed on the black market... No, such a pendant will not circulate on the black market at all!

   Erwin shook his head.

  The opportunity to join the Istar School is already precious, not to mention that this highest-level pendant represents free entry.

  Even if you don’t have the qualifications of a wizard, as long as you have this pendant, you can ask the wizards of the Istar school to transplant it.

   Of course, in that case, the rest of the benefits brought by the pendant will also be weakened accordingly...

   Erwin hesitated on his old face.

  His lifespan is short, at most fifty years.

   Besides him, the strongest wizard in the family is only at the first-level intermediate level, and his aptitude is average. Even with the current resources, it is a fluke to break through the second level within a hundred years.

   But when he dies, the Loen family will no longer be able to continue to control the golden ears of wheat in Neustadt, and the resources they can obtain will undoubtedly be greatly reduced...

  The Ruen family is likely to gradually decline like this, and become humble from then on.

  If you want suitable young people from the family to join the Ishtar School... No, unless it is absolutely necessary, you must not go this way!

  Ervin's eyes flashed with determination.

  If one joins the Istar School, will the Loen Family still exist?

   I'm afraid there will only be the Loen family of Istar...

  Carefully put away Ishtar's golden token, Erwin's thoughts drifted to the explosion he witnessed in the lightless forest earlier.

  A faint uneasiness enveloped him.

   It is important to know that although the distance of the field explosion is very far, the actual distance is not far for a wizard.

  If the culprit who caused the explosion wanted to come to Loen Kingdom, it would only take a short while.

   Putting aside his worries about the family's future for the time being, Erwin's heart was gradually occupied by the more urgent and strange situation in front of him.

   After thinking for a while, he walked towards the top of the White Tower, preparing to report the matter to Neustadt to see if he could get some useful information, and at the same time told the wizards in the kingdom to be vigilant.

  ………

   "Sorcerer Erwin ordered that all the resident wizards immediately go to the wizard tower to guard."

  So when Colin returned home, just as he sat down on the sofa, before he had time to sort out what he had seen tonight, an order followed.

  When he arrived at the South Three Towers, Wilbur had already arrived, standing alone by the sofa in the corner of the hall, with a panicked expression on his face.

   Seeing Colin coming, his eyes light up slightly:

   "Your Excellency Colin, are you also taking refuge here?"

  Colin was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that Wilbur might have seen the horror of the explosion, so he subconsciously came to the safest wizard tower area in the entire Loen Kingdom.

  Shaking his head, Colin walked to the sofa and sat down: "Your Excellency Erwin's order, order the garrison wizards to come to the wizard tower to guard."

   "Did Your Excellency Erwin say what's going on?" Wilbur's expression was still a little uneasy.

With only the first level of strength, he felt more deeply about the explosion than Colin—it was like a bomb suddenly exploded in his ear. Fear, has overflowed my heart.

   "No." Colin shook his head, "I'm afraid His Excellency Irwin doesn't know what's going on."

  Welbur spun around the sofa a few times anxiously, looking out the window from time to time, with a tense expression, worried whether there would be a new explosion.

   But overnight, after the first explosion, nothing happened again.

  The sudden explosion was like a meteor flying across the sky, so short that one could not consciously think it was an illusion.

   But that was not an illusion after all.

   When dawn broke, the wizards stationed subconsciously gathered together.

  Before Colin deliberately inquired about it, various speculations and news had sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

  Some people say that the believers of the gods were found in Mount Pata, and a fierce battle broke out.

  Some people say that the sleeping ancient monsters in the mountains were awakened and vented their anger.

  Some people say that it is just a new spectacle, which is a natural phenomenon, but the movement is slightly louder...

  Some of these conjectures are decent, and the details are vivid and vivid. But more still know it's fake.

  Colin couldn't tell either.

  But the only thing that can be determined is the location of the explosion-Pata Mountain.

  Mount Pata is a small mountain range, close to the Kingdom of Kiran—I heard that many civilians in the Kingdom of Kiran died unexpectedly due to the aftermath of the explosion last night.

   And this originally small hill, after last night, although it cannot be said to have become a basin, it can no longer be called a mountain.

  Colin was not only a little moved and shocked.

  His current strength is not weak. It is easy to destroy a 100-meter mountain, but it is still somewhat difficult to completely change the appearance of a thousand-meter mountain—at least not overnight.

  The change in the topography of Mount Pata also made Colin more certain that the intensity of the explosion last night was at least in the third-order category.

   It's just that the reason is still unknown.

   This mystery was not officially solved by Wizard Erwin until ten o'clock in the noon.

  He summoned all the wizards to the Great Hall of the White Tower.

  After a day later, Colin came here again, and Colin couldn't help but have the illusion of repeated time.

   "I think everyone heard or saw the huge explosion last night." Wizard Erwin looked around at the wizard in front of him, and spoke slowly.

  All the wizards nodded one after another, and Erwin didn't keep it up, and continued:

   "I got the latest news from the city of Neustadt. The explosion last night was caused by a battle—

  A battle to capture the Frost Phantom. "

  ‘Frost Phantom? ! ’ Colin was stunned for a moment, and the rest of the wizards were not much better, they all showed surprise and whispered to each other.

   "Isn't that the monster just mentioned yesterday?"

   "I didn't expect it to be near us!"

   "Yes, it is the Frost Phantom mentioned by the wizards of the law enforcement team yesterday." Erwin raised his hand to suppress the voices of the wizards,

  "The cunning Frost Phantom was finally discovered by the law enforcement team led by Wizard Rayleigh in the Pata Mountains last night.

  The two sides fought, but unexpectedly, the strength shown by the Frost Phantom far exceeded the level shown in the past..."

   "So what is the result of the battle?" A wizard asked impatiently.

Erwin paused for a moment without being angry, and said: "The Frost Phantom blew itself up in the end—the explosion I saw last night was caused by this, and the third-order wizard Rayleigh who fought against it was seriously injured in the end. Two wizards died and five were seriously injured."

  The wizards in the audience breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

  Although the casualties were serious, fortunately, the Frost Phantom blew himself up and died, so he didn't have to worry about suddenly coming to the Loen Kingdom one day.

   "Everyone, don't be too happy too early." However, Erwin on the stage sighed, and finally added:

   "Member Noyes went to the Pata Mountains to investigate today, but when he came back, he brought bad news—the Frost Phantom probably didn't die, but escaped by self-destructing."

   Without waiting for the reaction of the wizards in the audience, Erwin continued to add:

  "But the good news is that the Frost Phantom is no longer strong after this self-explosion, and the law enforcement team is continuing to search for its trace... so you don't have to worry too much.

  However, just in case, I will strictly check the duty posts in the next few days, and hope that everyone will come to the police on time according to the regulations. "

   "In addition, I also plan to divide up three three-person teams to patrol the territory of the kingdom throughout the day. The specific arrangement will be notified later..."

  Wizard Erwin's voice was calm and soothing, but Colin understood—

   Originally staying in the comfortable days of Loen Kingdom, I am afraid that he will leave him temporarily.
