Chapter 133: Leave
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
What happened in front of the Forest Guard Tower today was shocking to Heath.
In the eyes of most Wizards, mortals were very weak. They were like insects, weak and powerless. With a casual pat, they could easily end their short lives with just a thought.
Mortals challenging Wizards was like an ant raising its fists to fight an elephant. In the eyes of any Wizard, it was the same childish and ridiculous. It was a typical suicide.
However, just now, Heath witnessed a mortal challenging a Wizard. Not only was the mortal not killed by the Wizard, but he also fought tenaciously. It could even be said that he defeated the Wizard!
This was somewhat unbelievable.
…
A few days later, in the Magic Bug Forest, Forest Guard Tower.
The early morning sunlight penetrated through the clouds and gradually sprinkled on the earth, illuminating the gray ancient stone wall, the mottled nettles, and the old tower.
Under the tower, Heath was saying his final farewell to the recovering Kirst.
The Gray Wizard successfully survived with the help of the potion of Heath. After resting for another two days, he finally recovered. Although there was still some time before he fully recovered, his life was no longer in danger.
Heath said, “Don’t you plan to stay here for a while longer? Wouldn’t it be safer to wait until you have recovered before going on the road?”
Kirst shook his head and said succinctly, “I still have something important to deal with.”
All the materials needed to be collected had already been gathered.
Heath said, “If that’s the case, then fine.”
Kirst said with a serious expression, “I really have to thank you for saving my life this time.”
He sighed, “If it was someone else, I’m afraid they would have already taken my head, and you have given me a helping hand.”
Once the secret of the treasury was revealed, it would bring endless trouble. According to the style of the Gray Wizards, in order to keep the secret, they had no other choice but to silence him.
It was to the extent that even now, Kirst felt like he was dreaming that he could survive.
Heath said as if nothing had happened, “It’s fine, it’s just a small matter.”
In fact, Kirst was thinking too much.
Ten million Magic Stones was an unimaginable amount of wealth for an Apprentice, but it was nothing for a Wizard. It wasn’t even worth the resources needed for a single retreat.
What a Wizard needed the most was a place with resources, a place that could provide resources sustainably.
In this situation, the Wizards weren’t in a hurry to fight for territory or resources. Instead, they wanted to go against a young Apprentice like him for ten million Magic Stones… What was the point of buying a casket?
As for the remaining Apprentices…
To be honest, Heath felt that it was not a bad thing for Kirst to leak the news…
Haha, it was just a joke. It was better to be kind.
Moreover, even if he wanted to hide it, it could not be hidden.
There was a magic circle set up by the Wizards in the Magic Bug Forest. The Shadow Tower must have known what they were doing here. Perhaps there were already Wizards watching everything here through the crystal ball. There was no secret to speak of.
In short, it was important to guard against people. Since Heath chose to save Kirst, he naturally weighed the pros and cons in his heart.
Kirst said seriously, “I, Kirst Wayne, will always remember your kindness.”
“If you go to the Golden Islands in the future, if you need any help, you can report my name to Pearl City anytime. Wear this badge.”
He handed over a unique badge with a pattern that looked like some kind of sea beast.
Heath was stunned. “You’re a Wizard from the Golden Islands?”
Kirst nodded. “Yes, I was originally a core Wizard of the Golden Islands, from the [Sea Crown]. But for some special reasons, I’ve been acting as a Gray Wizard recently…”
“Now that the matter has been settled, I have to go back and report.”
Heath was surprised.
He knew about the Sea Crown, which was one of the most powerful Wizard organizations in the Golden Islands.
He could not help but laugh. “This carelessness even saved a thigh!”
Kirst was obviously not the kind of person with a sense of humor. He asked with a puzzled face, “What is a thigh?”
Heath shook his head. “Nothing.”
Then, he put away the badge and said, “Thank you for your kindness, Sir. I will remember it.”
After a pause, Heath suddenly said, “Speaking of which, you reminded me that I have something to discuss with you.”
Kirst said, “Please go ahead.”
Heath said, “I am very interested in the flying spell that you used. I wonder if you are willing to sell it?”
Kirst looked troubled. “This…”
Seeing this, Heath said, “If it’s not convenient, then forget it.”
Kirst hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth. “Originally, according to the rules, I can’t do this… But if it’s you, then it’s fine.”
Heath raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Are you sure?”
If Kirst was a Gray Wizard, then that was fine, but he was a Wizard who belonged to an organization. This problem was not that simple.
The spells in the organization could not be taught privately.
This rule could be said to be the general rule of the entire Wizard World. Any Wizard organization that did not set up this rule would be sentenced to death if it was found out.
This already belonged to the category of being extremely serious. It was not something that Magic Stones could solve…
Kirst shook his head. “It doesn’t matter. This flying spell was not created by our organization. It was also purchased from the market. It is not unique.”
“As for the problem of the rules… I am now Gray Wizard Kirst.”
He smiled and said the wise words of a Gray Wizard. “Gray Wizards are not bound by any rules.”
Heath did not say anything more.
Then, the two parties completed the transaction, and Kirst received a Magic Stone symbolically.
After the transaction was completed, this farewell ended.
Before leaving… Kirst persuaded Heath, “If you are interested in our Sea Crown, I can also recommend you. You can advance to intermediate Apprentice at such a young age. If you get the right training, you will definitely achieve higher achievements.”
“The Wizard World is very big. The Underdark Treesea is just an inconspicuous small forest. You should go out and take a look.”
Heath nodded, “Thank you. I will consider it.”
Kirst said, “Then, goodbye.”
“Goodbye.”
Kirst went into the distance and soon disappeared into the forest.
Standing on the tower, Heath looked at the forest in the distance. The dense forest rose and fell like an endless sea, stretching far into the distance.
He agreed with Kirst’s last words.
The Wizard World was very, very big.
The Underdark Treesea was only a low-level resource land. There were more than twenty such resource lands in the entire West Coast, and even a Wizard region like the West Coast had thirteen in the entire Old Land Continent.
And the Old Land Continent was only one of the continents in the Wizard Plane.
And above the Wizard World?
Even if it was the Wizard World, it might not be the entire world…
Heath silently clenched his fists. “Work hard and train!”
The world was big, but he was very small.
If he wanted to see the scenery of this world, the prerequisite was that he had to become strong enough.
…
After sending off Kirst, Heath completely devoted himself to extracting the various materials of the Magic Bug Forest.
Every day, he would hunt, extract, hunt, extract… Like a machine, other than sleeping, eating, and regular training, he devoted the rest of his time to extracting without a day’s rest.
Under his selfless extraction, his strength improved rapidly.
In a short span of eight months, he finished condensing the remaining two runes and broke through the last shackle in one fell swoop, reaching the pinnacle of the Apprentice level.
The peak of the Apprentice level, the final stage of the Apprentice level.
At this level, the Apprentice could begin to attempt to break through to the Wizard level.
At this time, the species in the Magic Bug Forest had also been extracted by Heath.
Thus, the next day, he embarked on a new journey.
Towards —
The Wizard!
