I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

With a whooshing sound, the snow blocking the cave entrance was pushed aside a little.

Subsequently, a small tornado gradually appeared outside the cave entrance, blowing away the nearby snow.

The sky wasn't fully bright yet.

A very beautiful and delicate ‘man-woman’ and a heroic and tall man walked out of the cave entrance.

The heroic man took out a small silver pot and collected the fog that permeated the vicinity.

After looking around, he shook his head and said, "This is bad. Last night's snow was too heavy, and this mountain road might not be easy to walk."

"The altitude here is high. When you came from the desert, you thought you were walking on flat ground, but you were actually starting to climb the mountain. From here to the summit, it's only four or five hours away. Even if it's later, we'll arrive before dark."

The beautiful and delicate ‘man-woman’ slapped Roland's butt twice and said, "Hurry up, you disobedient stubborn donkey. This master has bad legs and needs a mount."

Roland glanced at Qiong but said nothing. Not only did he not complain, but he also carried her on his back.

How biased!

If a man patted your butt and said you were a donkey, you would definitely punch him and give him a black eye.

But if it's a delicate beauty who says you're a donkey and she wants to ride, then you carry her.

The little ‘man-woman’ didn't get any action last night and was in a bad mood. As for Roland... well, he carried her on his back.

There was a lot of snow on the mountain, but Roland's pace was very fast. By noon, he had actually completed a small half of the journey.

But the road behind was a bit rugged, all mountain paths. Several times, Roland stepped into a snow pit and slid down with a whoosh.

But he only slid a few steps before being thrown back up by a magic spell.

It was as if the two were riding a roller coaster, and Qiong excitedly hugged Roland's back and screamed.

Finally, the two arrived at a relatively wide platform to rest. But just a few minutes after sitting down, they heard people talking nearby.

Both of their expressions became slightly serious. Running into people here, they didn't know if they were friends or foes. Moreover, it sounded like the other side was numerous, probably seven or eight people.

Soon, a group of people walked out from the corner. The man and woman at the head were very familiar.

Both sides were slightly stunned after seeing each other.

The woman at the head, a flash of resentment in her eyes, smiled and said, "So it's Junior Roland, what a coincidence."

The man looked at Roland, then at Qiong leaning on him, a smile that was not a smile on his face. He said with some envy, "I was wondering who was calling out so happily on the mountain road just now, it turns out it's little brother Roland and ‘Beauty Qiong’."

Qiong's face flushed slightly, and she said in a low, angry voice, "Brown, watch your mouth."

This group of people was the Red Skull. The man and woman at the head were Brown and Aurelia.

Roland asked, "Why are you so late? Where are the others?"

Seeing that they had a large number of people, Roland felt that the possibility of Andy and the others surviving would greatly increase. But they came back so late, and they weren't with Lilith and the others. This made Roland a little unsure.

Aurelia glanced at Roland and ignored him.

She didn't bother to pay attention to this ‘corpse’. She looked at Qiong and said, "Mr. Qiong, thank you for escorting our academy's people all the way here. We won't bother you for the rest of the journey. We have something to talk about, you can leave first."

Unlike Roland, a ‘slightly famous’ intermediate apprentice, and unlike Aurelia and the others, a ‘very famous’ group, Qiong was a truly influential figure in the new generation.

She was the vice-brain of the Magicians, even one head taller than Andy, the boss of the Magic Chess Society. Moreover, this advanced apprentice not only had considerable strength, but also had a very famous high-grade oddity in her hand.

So in Aurelia's eyes, she was a more difficult person to deal with.

At this time, Qiong also realized that this group of people had a grudge against Roland. So she said, "I don't know what grudges you have, but Prince Charles has ordered me to escort Scholar Roland all the way back. I'm protecting this person. If you have anything, we'll talk about it outside."

Prince Charles had died long ago, Qiong was bluffing this group of people.

Qiong has now lost all her magic power, and it's difficult to even use a few tricks. The others can't see that there's a problem with her magic power now, but once she moves, she'll be exposed.

There are seven or eight people in front of her, except for two advanced apprentices, the rest are all intermediate apprentices!

The low-level apprentices should all be dead. The remaining people who can survive to this day all have some tricks up their sleeves. Moreover, although Brown and Aurelia are not as famous as Qiong, it's because they rarely use curses in public. So their true strength is not much worse than Qiong's.

Qiong felt that she, as a cripple, couldn't help Roland at all. How could this battle be fought?

After Qiong finished speaking, not only did the others not retreat, but their eyes revealed killing intent. Aurelia said, "This is not White Chess Academy, you magicians are interfering too much. Qiong, I'll give you face for the last time, leave early, don't be ungrateful."

Roland patted Qiong's hand and said, "You're in my way, leave first."

Qiong looked at Roland and conveyed a thought: If you die in battle, they will definitely chase me back to kill me and silence me, I can't run far. We'll die together!

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiong was knocked unconscious by Roland with a sleeping spell.

Then, Roland calmly put Qiong into the dimensional pocket and beckoned to Aurelia and the others who were dumbfounded; "Today I'll send you all to see Mother Hela."

Aurelia laughed angrily: "Looking for death!"

Suddenly, there was silence within a few hundred meters. Seven or eight afterimages of oddities flew over and struck Roland.

This group of people had been prepared to attack from the beginning, and they didn't intend to leave Qiong alive.

They just said so much nonsense because they thought it would take some effort to kill two people together, so they wanted to coax one away and kill them one by one.

So they had already prepared. When Aurelia activated the 'Silent Accordion' and banned magic, everyone threw out the prepared oddities and attacked.

How could Roland dodge the siege of those seven or eight oddities? He was instantly torn to pieces.

But upon closer inspection, it wasn't a corpse at all, it was a pile of shattered puppets.

— Floral Moss Robe: Identity Swap.

Brown was the first to discover Roland's true location. He looked at the mid-air outside the cliff and found that Roland was flying with Elina's chain. Immediately, his heart burned with anger.

He took out a set of flints and, after snapping them with two fingers, turned into a fiery light and chased after him at high speed, and the other intermediate apprentices followed.

Aurelia stopped two people and said, "They have enough people, let's block the only way to the mountain, lest he shake off Brown and let him escape."

The three retracted their gazes and turned to go up the mountain, but they saw a strange puppet sitting on the big rock where Roland had been sitting before.

The puppet was covered in sand and couldn't see its original clothes. It was very strange.

It was the puppet that Aurelia and the others had just shattered.

"Is that the 2nd-order magic puppet issued by the academy? Which professor made it, it's so strange."

Aurelia didn't associate it with the Ballet Ghost at all, because the behaviors of the two were too different. Moreover, it had magic power fluctuations on its body, similar to a normal intermediate apprentice. No matter how you looked at it, it was a 2nd-order magic puppet.

She reached out and shattered it again, and then turned to lead people up the mountain. But before she had taken a few steps, the three were stunned to find that on the road ahead, there was a puppet clicking and slowly climbing the mountain.

Aurelia frowned, vaguely feeling something was wrong. She winked at an intermediate apprentice beside her. The apprentice took out a rope-like oddity.

The apprentice chanted a spell on the rope, and the rope slowly disappeared. Then the puppet was tied up tightly by the rope.

The puppet staggered and rolled down from the mountain road. Its arms were cracked.

This rope was a bit interesting. The puppet looked like a 2nd-order creature, but after being tied up, the magic power and wooden body on its body were imprisoned.

An intermediate apprentice walked over and kicked the puppet, which didn't move. The intermediate apprentice chanted another spell, and then there were more ropes on the puppet's body.

Aurelia curiously reached out and beckoned, and then the puppet flew to her side and was held by her head.

After looking at it for a moment, Aurelia showed a more interested look.

"It actually has a trace of Hela's aura, as if it's about to evolve towards the mysterious side. Humph, that kid really has some strange encounters. I'll return the oddity to you later, I'll take this puppet back to study."

Saying that, Aurelia directly stuffed the puppet, along with the rope oddity, into her bag.

As a result, when she looked up, the three of Aurelia were dumbfounded.

Click, click, click, click.

On the mountain road, a strange puppet was slowly climbing the mountain. Suddenly, it seemed to feel everyone's gaze. But it didn't look up, but clicked and slowly turned around, looking down the mountain.

The latest and most complete novels are at 6_9_shu_ba. First release!

Everyone looked at the mountain ahead at the same time, as if possessed by a ghost. In that mountain road, a puppet was quietly looking back at them!

Looking down the mountain again, the puppet was standing perfectly fine at the foot of the mountain!

A chilling coldness rose from Aoleiya's heart. Goosebumps erupted all over her body. With a solemn expression, she took out a strange object.

"It's just an illusion, don't be afraid."

Only one person responded to Aoleiya. She and her companion suddenly felt something was wrong, and they mechanically turned their heads to look at the other person beside them, only to discover that it wasn't a person at all!

It was a puppet!

Ballet Ghost, this was something that only official Black Abyss wizards, or senior instructors, could lead people to contain.

Although Aoleiya had only been promoted to Advanced Apprentice for half a year, she was not comparable to ordinary instructors. Moreover, she had been researching Ballet Ghosts for a very, very long time.

In order to contain such a thing and keep it for her own use, she had even spent money to buy a lot of information about Ballet Ghosts.

She knew all the routines of Ballet Ghosts and had the confidence to deal with one. But this Ballet Ghost was obviously different from normal ones.

Mid-mountain.

The snow forest was shrouded in gray mist, with ghostly shadows everywhere.

The ground was covered with creeping vines, wriggling everywhere. Beyond twenty meters, there were large webs and dense spiders.

An Advanced Apprentice was leading three Intermediate Apprentices, struggling to cope with a group of invisible enemies.

These four people had many items in their hands, but apart from the strange snakes that entangled with the vines on the ground, most of the others were flying around randomly in the mist.

They seemed to want to kill those troublesome specters, but those specters were all Tier 2. They were inherently elusive, and with the ghostly mist, they often disappeared into the mist.

There seemed to be an invisible safe zone in the ghostly mist; once they flew there, they could never be found again.

Only the Advanced Apprentice could kill the specters before they ran far away, but he was dealing with a strange red shadow, and the burning spear-shaped item he threw out was also entangled with a chain.

Around him, there was also a large group of black snakes, intertwined with the vines like shadows, maintaining a barrier, and occasionally having to take care of his three subordinates.

It was already remarkable that he could multitask in four ways. Even if he had other strange items, he had no time to control them.

Fortunately, that kid was not very skilled in manipulating the vines and small spiders, and it seemed that he had just gotten that thing and had not yet imprinted his spirit on it, so it could not exert much effect.

This allowed the Advanced Apprentice Brown to take the opportunity to lead his subordinates to break the spider web and escape many times.

But once everyone went deep into the mist, they would inexplicably walk back into the spider web!

Soon, only three of the four people were left inexplicably. During the entanglement, the three noticed that there was a headless corpse in the distance, wearing a strange embroidered red leather coat, and all the flesh and blood on his body had been sucked dry by the red coat.

In the blink of an eye, the red shadow disappeared into the ghostly mist.

It seemed that during the previous breakout, the red shadow secretly clung to that apprentice and killed him silently.

Advanced Apprentice Brown felt great hatred in his heart. If it weren't for this thick fog, the four of them would have joined forces to destroy that red shadow long ago.

Seven magic spells flew from the sky, and the three hurriedly dodged. They avoided the vines, watched out for the red shadow, and resisted the various magic spells flying from the mist, exhausted.

Before long, the mist became even deeper, and nothing could be seen beyond three meters. Even divine sense could not extend too far.

Suddenly, seven white lights flashed in the deep mist of the sky. The crowd was shocked and hurriedly dispersed. An Intermediate Apprentice was unable to dodge and was hit by four bolts of lightning. The magic shield on his body, which was already extremely weak, instantly annihilated, and the whole person was instantly charred in the four bolts of lightning.

This apprentice's vitality was exceptionally tenacious, and the magic equipment on his body was also good, so he did not die immediately, but twitched and fell to the ground.

Swish, swish, swish... More than a dozen spider silks flew over, binding the remaining corpse on the ground and pulling it to the spider web. Many spiders swarmed up and began to devour it.

The vines on the ground once again broke free from Brown's strange snake pets and swept towards Brown and the last Intermediate Apprentice. At the same time, seven magic spells flew from the sky again. Looking again, a red shadow stood quietly in the mist not far away.

A new round of tug-of-war was about to begin.

Brown was so angry that his internal organs were burning. He once again threw out a burning hammer of ghostly fire to chase the specters in the sky. The specters seemed to know how powerful that thing was and all burrowed into the fog with a whoosh. The hammer stared at one specter and chased it relentlessly until a chain blocked the hammer, allowing the specter to escape.

They couldn't continue to entangle!

Brown suddenly took out a short magic wand burning with black-red flames. Upon closer inspection, many burning small snakes were coiled around this magic wand, emitting a very evil aura.

Brown used this magic wand to chant a magic spell, and immediately a raging fire swept out. Instantly, the mist in the sky was like a turbulent fire cloud, and the spider webs and forests in all directions were swept by the flames!

In this fire, the Intermediate Apprentice beside Brown screamed and instantly turned to ashes.

Roland was shocked and hurriedly ordered the Good Spirits to flee desperately, and he himself disappeared on the spot.

Ten minutes later

In a certain mist, ghostly shadows were heavy, and wriggling vines were everywhere.

A pale-faced Advanced Apprentice was entangled with a Tier 3 red-clothed banshee and seven strange specters in the mist.

This person was Brown. After using that move just now, he turned into fire and fled frantically, almost breaking out of the ghostly mist. But he was forced back by Roland.

The magic power on his body was now very unstable. It seemed that the move just now had consumed a lot of energy and greatly damaged his own magic power cycle. After drinking a bottle of magic potion, he had the strength to fight again.

"You bastard, don't you dare show your face?!" Brown cursed loudly.

A burst of sound echoed from all directions: "Don't worry, I'll try these strange objects again."

Brown: "Shameless villain!"

Roland played with Brown for a while, trying all the strange objects that he thought were valuable.

When Brown's magic power was almost exhausted by Roland and his group of nine 'people', he ate a mermaid fruit again, and then took out the sword sheath and recalled the specters to avoid accidental injury.

Soon, golden phantoms flashed in all directions in the mist. Those phantoms were very skilled and moved extremely fast, leaving afterimages in place.

— Valeria Flash Sword!

They could easily avoid the strange objects that Brown greeted and were very difficult to deal with. Brown was already on the verge of collapse. When the third phantom flew over, a crisp cracking sound came from the barrier protecting him, and then he slowly disappeared in the golden flames.

When the fifth phantom flew over, Brown was already unavoidable. At this time, a flash of thunder and fire suddenly flashed behind him, and then he felt that the whole world had become two parts and fell to the ground.

In the last consciousness, Brown saw a pair of boots slowly walking over in the snow.

'Bastard'

Before he died, Brown didn't even see Roland's face.

"Damn blondie, you're so hard to deal with... You're catching up to Hayward's two skins."
