Chapter 132 News from the family

A week later, Norman's Secret Land.

A man in gray robe with a sinister face and three plague bugs on his chest was standing next to the body of a shadow elf shooter, looking at the jumping blood falcon in his hand.

The blood falcon is small in size, not as big as an owl. Its pair of eye-catching red blood eyes are particularly eye-catching. If you look closely, you will find that the redness is a bit abnormal.

That's because the blood falcon in front of you has broken away from the category of natural creatures. After being transformed into a walking corpse, it retains some of its instincts in life, such as flying, but it is controlled by the caster.

This blood falcon is now a messenger corpse bird controlled by Joachim.

Currently, his whole body is numb.

"He actually came back to life again? He was washed away by the underground river, went to the underground mezzanine, went through many hardships for half a year, and finally returned to the Ignis School smoothly. This... this is a plot that can only be found in the autobiography of a bard!"

After reading the message on the corpse bird, Joachim's face was ashen, and his heart was filled with ten thousand grass and mud horses running past.

This person is none other than the third-level wizard apprentice of the North Ring, Joachim Freehuis, the senior of the red-haired girl Jenna.

Thinking back when Master Gildas handed Richard's portrait to him, he was confident that it wouldn't take long to complete the task easily. After all, he was a third-level wizard apprentice, and no matter how outstanding the opponent was, he was only a first-level wizard. Just a wizard's apprentice.

But when he handed Richard's portrait to a third-level wizard apprentice of the Ignis School whom he was familiar with, the other party told him that Richard was missing. It was said that the wizard apprentices from the three major academies were on a clearing mission. Encountering the dark fish-men, they immediately suffered heavy casualties, and Richard was one of them.

After hearing the news, Joakim had already made a careless mistake and was fooled by Richard, whom he had never met before. He even lost face in front of his mentor.

Therefore, this time Joachim had a keen eye and went to the place where Richard disappeared, that is, the place where many wizard apprentices fought with the dark murlocs, to check. Except for some apprentice corpses that were indeed unrecognizable, Joachim Mu just couldn't find Richard's body.

This made Joachim couldn't help but feel suspicious, thinking that Richard might not be dead, but when he waited until the end of the task of eradicating the vassals of the underground race, he didn't see Richard appear.

This made Joachim start to doubt himself again.

More than a month later, Joachim asked acquaintances of the Ignis School again, but still did not hear any news about Richard's appearance.

At this time, he had some confidence, and went back to report the news to Master Gildas that Richard was likely to be killed.

Unexpectedly, half a year has passed since this incident, and something has changed. This is equivalent to being slapped in the face again, because the situation reported to the instructor was untrue.

Therefore, it is best for you to handle this matter perfectly immediately.

What is the perfect solution? Obviously, the perfect solution is to kill the resurrected person again.

However, Joachim considered that he could not leave the Norman secret realm for a while, so he decided to spend some magic stones first and let several second-level wizard apprentices find a suitable opportunity to kill Richard.

I'm just afraid that if he stays in the Ignis School and doesn't go out, he'll be in trouble.

Joachim thought for a while and left a message on the corpse bird, which meant that his junior, Lucius Redman, the second-level wizard apprentice of the North Ring, was responsible for killing this Richard. The specific reward is five hundred magic stones.

In order to avoid any accidents, he also made a special note, asking Lucius to call a few more second-level wizard apprentices to work together.

Because of the Norman Secret Realm, many second- and third-level wizard apprentices from North Ring and Gurus Academy now travel back and forth between the Norman Secret Realm and the Ignis School's residence.

——

Ignis School Library.

At the administrator's desk.

Richard was chatting with the senior third-level wizard apprentice old man. Now he could roughly sense the strength of the other party.

As he estimated when he first entered the school, the opponent's strength should be similar to his current one, and his mental power was close to the limit of level three.

However, the complexity and quantity of the types of witchcraft that the other party has learned must far exceed his. However, one thing is that Richard is very confident, that is, in terms of the degree of control of witchcraft, he will definitely be one step ahead of the other party. .

Therefore, if there is a real fight, the outcome is hard to say.

"Are you looking for a zero-level witchcraft that increases movement speed?"

"Yes, senior, but I just searched around the second floor and couldn't find any similar zero-level witchcraft."

The old man shook his head and said:

"The number of witchcraft that increases movement speed in the shadow system is very small. It is normal that you can't find it. Generally speaking, there are many more witchcraft that increase movement speed in the wind system. It's a pity for you, Richard. There is no affinity attribute to the wind element."

Richard also knew what his problem was. He was of the Dark Fire and Natural Elements, and his affinity levels were declining. His affinity levels were medium, low, and inferior.

This made him very confused, and currently he could only rely on shadow-based witchcraft.

The old man thought for a while and then added: "However, I know that there is a third-level wizard apprentice named Wolawi Piazza. He has a collection of the rare witchcraft you need. The name seems to be called Shadow. "Dance steps, but if you want to exchange this thing from that stingy guy, Richard, you will probably lose a lot of magic stones."

Richard was overjoyed when he heard this. To be honest, he could barely speak now. Any problem that could be solved with magic stones was not a big problem.

After knowing that the other party was in the trading area.

Richard quickly came to the trading area, Wolaway's grocery store.

As soon as Richard entered the door, he saw Wolaway taking a nap. He was fat and had narrowed eyes, looking shrewd.

It was difficult to associate him with a third-level wizard apprentice, but Wolaway was a third-level wizard apprentice in name and in reality. Although judging from his aura, he should not have reached the peak of a third-level wizard apprentice, he was not far away.

"Senior Wolaway, I heard that you have a book of witchcraft called Shadow Dance?"

Richard's aura of the peak of a second-level wizard apprentice did not make Wolaway despise him.

After looking Richard up and down, he said slowly: "Do you have Silver Dragon Grass? Just exchange for Silver Dragon Grass. If you have three Silver Dragon Grasses, it will be yours."

As a quasi-potion master, Richard knew what the other party was going to do as soon as he heard it.

Although Silver Dragon Grass is very rare, its function is relatively simple. Considering that the other party is a third-level wizard apprentice and is so anxious to get it, it is likely that he wants to make a rare Silver Dragon Potion for the growth of mental power.

With a loosened brow, Richard smiled and said: "Senior Wolawei, do you have to get Silver Dragon Grass?"

"Yes, you have to get Silver Dragon Grass!" Wolawei said firmly.

Wolawei is very clear about his situation. Basically, he has eaten all kinds of mental power growth potions that can be obtained on the market.

Except for the ancient potion such as the Crimson Shock Potion, because the quantity is too scarce, and the school only released a few bottles as a reward, so he can't get it.

Others such as the Prophet Potion, etc., as long as they are available on the market, he has already taken them.

As his strength grew rapidly, he also faced the current dilemma. As he approached the peak stage of the third-level wizard apprentice, he basically developed resistance to all mental power enhancement potions.

Therefore, if he wanted to go further and impact the official wizard, he needed to take new mental power growth potions. At present, he had contacted a potion master and collected other herbs, but he lacked silver dragon grass.

"Senior Wolawei, take a look at my potion, how about it?" Richard confidently took out a small box from his arms and took out a golden horned frog egg from the box.

"No need to look at it, I have basically taken anything available on the market, unless yours is red." Wolawei stopped before he finished speaking.

He was very sure that he had never seen this kind of potion!

Of course, there was no such thing as drug resistance.

Wolawei widened his eyes, looked carefully at the golden soybeans in front of him, and asked in confusion: "What is this.?"

"A special potion produced in the dark area that can enhance mental power. Senior Wolawei can try the effect first. This one is free." Richard said with a smile.

A potion from the Underdark? Wolaway believed it a little. After all, his school has gone deep underground, and it is normal for some apprentices to find some potions unique to the Underdark.

"Are you sure it is a potion to enhance mental strength and has no side effects? Have you taken it yourself?" Wolaway was still hesitant.

"Of course, the effect is very good." Richard swallowed a pill in front of Wolaway.

Seeing Richard so straightforward, Wolaway's eyes lit up and he swallowed the golden horned frog eggs in one gulp.

In less than a few seconds, Wolaway's eyes lit up like an incandescent lamp with electricity, thinking to himself, "It really works for me, there is no drug resistance at all, it's a good thing!"

Immediately, Wolaway's shrewd eyes immediately rolled around.

"Hey, Richard, how many of these do you want to exchange with me for shadow dance steps? Less is not enough, at least 100 pills are needed." Wolaway said, while making a big one gesture.

"100 pills? You really dare to ask for it." Richard thought to himself, shook his head, and turned around and left.

"No, no, no, don't go! The price is negotiable. Junior brother, you name a price, we can negotiate." Wolawei could no longer remain calm and hurriedly ran out from behind the counter.

After all, for him, as long as he could get the potion in Richard's hand, he could improve his mental power to the peak of a third-level wizard apprentice in a few months, and he would have the opportunity to impact a formal wizard.

So, he was even more anxious. After all, the traces of silver dragon grass were hard to find, and it was uncertain when he could receive a plant. Moreover, there was a failure rate in refining, so how could it be as reliable as this finished potion.

"10 pills." Richard thought about it and quoted a price.

Now, it was Volaway's turn to look a little gloomy. Is this how to bargain? He had seen people bargaining in half, but this was the first time he had seen Richard's way of directly breaking bones.

After a lot of bargaining, it was only after Richard showed his superb medicine-making skills that Volaway reluctantly agreed to exchange 30 golden horned frog eggs for the rare witchcraft Shadow Dance.

Another condition was that Volaway had a free opportunity to let Richard make a potion.

——

Richard, who got "Shadow Dance", was in a good mood and came to the alchemy room of mentor Ceres.

But as soon as he entered the door, Ceres told him a bad news.

"Richard, the second-level wizard apprentice who was stationed in your family before was injured. According to the news he sent back, there is an outbreak of monsters in Rossby County, and Silver Pine Town is also a severely affected area. I think it is better to let you know."

Richard's mood sank immediately after hearing this.

"Teacher, is the situation serious?"

Ceres nodded and said, "But don't worry too much. I will issue another task later and arrange a third-level wizard apprentice to go there."

"Teacher, you still don't need to issue a new task. I will go back by myself?"

"You? With your current strength, it is still a big risk to fight monsters." Ceres advised.

For Richard, who has great hope of becoming a potion master, Ceres still hopes that Richard will not go back by himself.

After all, in his eyes, with Richard's strength as a second-level wizard apprentice, it is still easy to encounter danger in the battle with monsters.

He doesn't want the good seedling he has chosen to die halfway.

"Teacher, believe me."

For Richard, who had killed monsters in the Gray Fern Wilderness for half a year, he still had the confidence to protect Silver Pine Town from monster attacks.

"Okay! Then be careful along the way." Seeing that his favorite disciple had made up his mind, Ceres immediately stopped persuading him.

After all, an eagle cannot be raised in a cage.

After walking out of Ceres's alchemy room, Richard wanted to say goodbye to Meiluo before leaving.

But suddenly he remembered that Meiluo had gone to do the escort mission with several second-level wizard apprentices in the morning and would not be back until tomorrow.

So, Richard asked Ram to tell Meiluo, and he simply packed up his things and set off immediately.

——

Only when a freshman saw Richard walking out of the gate of Ignis School, he immediately returned to the school and said something to an old student, and then it was like a chain reaction, one by one, and soon, the news was passed to three second-level wizard apprentices of the Ring of North.

One of these three people was the guy named Lucius Redman who accepted the task of Joachim.

The two people next to him were his best friends and younger brothers. Lucius Redman was only at the peak of a second-level wizard apprentice, but he had a contracted creature that had reached the strength of a third-level wizard apprentice. Therefore, he was very confident in the task offered by Senior Joachim.

However, his contracted creature needed to be in a swamp environment to exert its combat effectiveness, so the battlefield preset by the trio was at the end of the trail west of the silt swamp, in a swamp area for ambush.

It couldn't be farther away, because if it was farther away, it would leave the silt swamp and enter the black forest area, and it would become extremely difficult to find another swamp.

When Richard followed the west trail of the school and passed through a dense black leaf forest, he found that something was wrong on both sides of the trail ahead, and he stopped immediately.

In the swamps on both sides of the trail, the water was turbid, and small bubbles were emitted from time to time.

But Richard's eyes were looking at the bushes at the corner in the distance, and he said in a deep voice: "Come out!"
