Chapter 126: Abyss
Wizard’s Water was also called Sublimation Water. As its name implied, it could help an Apprentice complete the sublimation of their life level, allowing the Apprentice to advance into a Wizard.
And Wizard’s Water was also an essential item for an Apprentice to advance into a Wizard!
For a moment, Heath suddenly felt his heartbeat quicken, and even his mouth and tongue became dry.
“There’s Wizard’s Water here! This is unbelievable!”
He could put the disbelief aside for now. The first thing Heath had to consider was…
Should he take a gamble?
There was nothing to hesitate about. The answer was a must.
Wizard’s Water was not a question of how much it was worth. This rare item was a priceless treasure.
It was a strictly controlled item.
Many rare materials and formulas needed to make it were not available on the market. Including the Shadow Tower, there was not a single Wizard organization in the entire Underdark Treesea that could make it.
Even in the entire West Coast, there were only one or two Wizard organizations that could make it.
According to the usual procedures, after an Apprentice met the requirements to advance to a Wizard, they would need to apply to the Wizard organization they belonged to, and the Wizard organization would then purchase it from the Tower of Order, as for whether or not to sell it and how much it would sell, it would depend on the Tower of Order’s intentions.
It was not that there were no illegal ways to obtain it, but not only was it expensive, they also had to face a lot of trouble to clear their name. If they were not careful, they would end up as a Dark Wizard.
Now that there was such an opportunity to obtain the Wizard’s Water in front of him, how could Heath not be tempted? One had to know that according to the rules of the Wizard World, in such a chaotic battlefield… No matter what resources a Wizard obtained, it was legal and reasonable.
In other words, if he took this bottle of Wizard’s Water, he would not even need to clear his name.
For a moment, Heath could not help but think quickly.
“How do I get in?”
According to the Knight’s soul, they were ordered to attack the Forest Guard Tower and successfully captured Marcel. The information about the Wizard’s Water came from Marcel. According to him, there was a treasure vault left behind by Wizard Parker in the Forest Guard Tower.
However, they met with trouble on the way to the treasure vault.
Before they could rejoice after opening the treasury, a huge demonized bug jumped out. That demonized bug was extremely powerful and they were no match for it at all. They were all wiped out in just a few seconds, including Jon. They were all eaten by the other party.
“It looks like a giant worm… with a bunch of surging tentacles… like a lump…”
From the description of the Knight, it should be the ‘Abyssal Queen Worm’. In the Shadow Tower, which introduced the knowledge of the abyss, Heath had seen the introduction of this kind of worm.
It was not a native product of the Wizard World, but came from another plane, the Abyss Plane…
Heath thought, ‘If it’s the Abyssal Queen Worm…’
This monster had powerful spiritual power that could control insect-type creatures. The demonized insects in the forest previously were obviously controlled by it.
The energy units it could use had already reached the Wizard level. From the energy intensity alone, it was equivalent to a Wizard.
Of course, this was only judged from the energy units. There was still a gap between the Abyssal Queen Worm and a real Wizard. It could only be considered as a peak Apprentice.
As long as it was still within the scope of an Apprentice, there was room for Heath to operate.
Knowing oneself and one’s enemy was invincible. After thinking carefully on the spot, Heath quickly decided on a battle plan based on the current conditions.
The first step was that he needed a sizeable army.
Finding an army in the wilderness sounded incredible, but Heath could make it one of his plans. Of course, this condition could be fulfilled.
Leaving the cave, Heath headed in a certain direction in the forest…
…
At the same time, in the Shadow Tower.
The life of an extraordinary person was not as ordinary people imagined. Day and night, they spent their time in intense training. In fact, other than a few extremely lofty and strong-willed individuals… The vast majority of extraordinary people would waste their time doing some boring things.
For example, they would gather together to enjoy the physiological stimulation of s*x, indulge in some kind of magic cards, travel around the secular world, and so on. They would use these methods to relieve the boredom of training.
It was the same for Apprentices, and it was the same for Wizards.
For example, right now, the two existing Wizards in Shadow Tower were doing something to relieve their boredom.
In Wizard Edith’s room.
Beside the old wooden table, Wizard Edith and Witch Ca.s.sandra were standing side by side. They were staring at the wooden table, their eyes full of excitement, as if they were observing something interesting and new.
There was a crystal ball placed there, and a scene was playing in the crystal ball. It was Heath who was running in the Magic Bug Forest.
Edith said, “What a greedy kid. He knows about the Abyssal Queen Worm, but he still dares to set his mind on this place. I don’t know whether to praise his courage or criticize his boldness!”
Ca.s.sandra smiled and said, “Hehehe, he really has the spirit to fight.”
“But I’m very curious. Where did this kid get the energy to learn so much nonsense? He even knows the soul summoning spell, and even the Abyssal Queen Worm. This guy is really a genius!”
Wizard Edith sighed. “It’s a pity that he has no grat.i.tude at all. When the Tower was in trouble, not only did he not stay to help, but he also turned around and left without hesitation. Now he’s even thinking about the property outside the tower. D*mn it! Really d*mn it!”
He seemed to be very angry.
Witch Ca.s.sandra shook her head and said, “His resources in the Tower were earned by himself bit by bit. This is in itself a trade of equal value. A trade is a trade. It’s not appropriate to talk about morality.”
“Let’s not talk about other things. Look at the Apprentices outside now. How many of them are sincerely staying for the Tower?”
Witch Ca.s.sandra said, “What we need to reflect on is ourselves. If we were in the position of those Apprentices, would we really risk our lives for the Tower?”
“We all know that no matter how hard they work, the possibility of them becoming Wizards is still very slim.”
Wizard Edith frowned. “There’s no other way. Resources are limited. Not everyone can become a Wizard, right?”
Witch Ca.s.sandra sneered and said sarcastically, “You’ve lived for a long time. Don’t you know what Wizard’s Water is? Using resources to talk about things is the stupidest thing.”
Wizard Edith remained silent. This was a big problem. As a young Wizard, it was better for him not to speak recklessly.
Witch Ca.s.sandra continued, “Do you know? Destiny-type magic is not omnipotent. It can only act as a trigger and only allow things that meet the conditions to happen. In other words, if this land does not meet the conditions for war, destiny-type magic will definitely not work.”
She solemnly said, “Everyone’s resentment was squeezed too much.”
Wizard Edith coughed and decisively ended the topic. “Cough, forget it, let’s not talk about this. Let’s look at this Apprentice. Do you think he can really get the Wizard’s Water?”
“Is it really possible to change his fate?”
…
Magic Bug Forest.
Heath walked out of Magic Bug Forest and soon came to a burnt valley covered with reefs. It was the valley where they fought when they entered Magic Bug Forest.
That’s right, his so-called army was the spider army!
Don’t think that this army was all noobs just because they were destroyed by Heath. It was just that he had deliberately calculated and unintentionally used the flame that was the most effective against spiders to trap them. If went against them in a head-on compet.i.tion, even if they were given twice the number of people, they might not be able to defeat this army.
Coming to the center of the forest, Heath took out the Necromancer’s Staff, raised it high, and chanted an obscure incantation. “Undead who wander in the land of darkness… Lost souls who have lost their way… In the name of the staff, I command you…”
As the incantation was chanted, the skull at the top of the Necromancer’s Staff suddenly lit up with blue soul flames.
The blue flame poured out from the empty skull like water and landed on the ground. It quickly spread to the surroundings and quickly wrapped around a charred corpse.
At the same time, a dark red magic array emerged from the bottom of the valley.
“Undead Resurrection!”
When the last syllable of Heath’s incantation fell, the originally peaceful valley was broken by a clamor.
Thousands of dead spiders woke up at the same time…
