Journey to the Wizarding World

"You mean, the crack in the void that appeared over Noel City seven days ago?"

Sa Ling thought for a moment and said seriously, "After those void cracks are formed, they only last for three days, and then return to normal."

"However, according to Lord Gustav's wishes, in order to prevent unexpected situations from happening, the witch array rainproof cover outside Noel City has not been lifted yet, and the wizards will take turns to guard it."

"Is it...over?"

Enzo's eyes sparkled with luster, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

The dramatic changes in the world lasted for three days and were completely over. This meant that the war between the First Expeditionary Force and the Tree of Elqira had come to an end.

"Master, Lord Gustav sent a message this morning, asking you to go to the sixth tower." At this time, Sa Ling next to her suddenly said.

"Teacher summoned me?"

Enzo raised his eyebrows and subconsciously took out the Phantom Crow Medal from his arms. He was shocked when he saw more than ten messages on it.

It turned out that three days ago, Gustav had been sending out twelve messages to summon Enzo to the sixth tower.

When there was no response, Gustav had no choice but to send someone to the Wizard Tower to notify Enzo in a more direct way.

"Sa Ling, prepare hot water. I want to take a bath and bring me a set of clean clothes." Enzo got up from the bed and ordered.

Saling immediately turned around and left, making arrangements according to Enzo's order.

Half an hour later, Enzo put on a clean black robe and walked out of the bathroom refreshed.

After he recovered, he immediately went to the sixth tallest tower and took the elevator to the top.

"Good day, mentor!" Enzo saluted.

"Enzo is here, can you take a seat first?" In a spacious room, Gustave was sitting behind a desk processing documents.

Seeing Enzo come in, he chuckled and raised his hand, and the fallen maid next to him immediately moved a chair for Enzo to sit down.

Afterwards, the two fallen maids left the room.

"How is it? How is your recovery going?" Gustav raised his head and asked softly.

"It's not bad, it's relatively smooth."

Enzo nodded. His promotion to the second-level wizard could be considered smooth sailing. With the help of the energy feedback from the Sanizor Tree, he broke the bottleneck in one fell swoop.

"What a lucky little guy!"

Gustav chuckled and shook his head, with a sigh of relief on his face, and said, "Compared to my experience of being promoted to a second-level wizard in a desperate situation on the battlefield, your process of being promoted to a second-level wizard is really enviable!"

Enzo smiled, changed the subject, and asked, "By the way, mentor, why did you summon me so urgently?"

"Yes, there is a task for you to perform."

Gustav nodded slightly and said thoughtfully, "According to the news from the Iron Wall Fortress, the First Expeditionary Force, led by Dean Froslai himself, has occupied the Raqir Forest!"

"Raqil Forest has been breached?"

Enzo's pupils shrank, and the luster in his eyes flashed. The Raqir Forest is the place where the Tree of Akiela sleeps, and it is also the last territory of the Children of the Forest.

The capture of the Raqil Forest means that the Children of the Forest have lost their last habitat, and this expedition can also come to an end.

"How is the Tree of Elqira?" Enzo quickly raised his head and asked.

As the only fourth-level life form in the world, the power controlled by the Ai Qila Tree is completely comparable to that of the gods. If it cannot be solved, then even if the wizard civilization completely takes over the world, it will be meaningless.

"As far as I know, the threat from the Tree of Elqira no longer exists!" Gustav said solemnly.

Enzo's pupils shrank sharply, and he suddenly took a breath of air.

"The specific details of the final battle cannot be described in detail even by the First Expeditionary Force as a participant."

"However, according to the information from the Iron Wall Fortress, the Tree of Elqira was originally in a deep sleep, but was later forcibly awakened by the Sons of the Forest. Before its power was fully restored, it clashed with Dean Froslai!"

"Dean Froslai used the disaster beast Ocino to finally defeat the Tree of Akiela. The battle between the two destroyed the entire Raqir Forest and even affected the rules of this world!"

"This is why, seven days ago, void cracks and other abnormal phenomena appeared one after another in the skies around the world."

Enzo's eyes flickered and his thoughts changed.

Immediately afterwards, Gustav continued, "After the Tree of Elqira was defeated, it did not completely fall. It just fell into a state of silence that was more serious than sleeping and could no longer pose a threat to the wizarding civilization."

"After the final battle, Dean Froslay also suffered severe trauma and was brought back to the Iron Wall Fortress in an almost dying state!"

"The current top commander of the expeditionary force has been taken over by Dean Mitchell."

Enzo's face was thoughtful, and he had a certain understanding of the current situation.

First of all, with the defeat of the Akiela Tree and the destruction of the Raqir Forest, the expedition can be declared over. The next thing the wizard civilization needs to do is to gradually take over the world.

Dean Floslay's serious injury and retirement obviously involved more secretive matters. After becoming an official wizard, Enzo obtained a lot of information that he could not understand during his apprenticeship. One of them included the conditions for a third-level wizard to be promoted to fourth level.

.

Just as Gustave revealed before the expedition began, the coordinates are the key to a third-level wizard advancing to the fourth level!

The wizarding civilization led by Dean Froslai has completely conquered the world, so for him, the most direct benefit is to be promoted to the fourth level!

However, even Gustave does not know the specific process of promotion to a third-level wizard, but according to Enzo's speculation, this process is likely to involve world rules.

"The fourth-level wizard is still too far away for me."

Enzo shook his head, dispelled the thoughts in his mind, raised his head, and asked, "Since Dean Froslai has defeated the Tree of Aira, and the wizard civilization has conquered the world, what tasks do I still need to perform?"

Woolen cloth?"

"That's exactly what I'm going to say next."

Gustav paused and said in a deep voice, ": After the final battle, the Tree of Akiela fell into silence, and the Rachel Forest was also destroyed."

"Most of the few remaining Children of the Forest were captured by the expeditionary force, and a small number took advantage of the chaos and fled the battlefield!"

"After the silence of the Tree of Elqira, the rules of this world will gradually change, becoming less and less suitable for the survival of the Children of the Forest."

"However, in order to prevent those escaped children of the forest from posing a threat to the rule of wizard civilization in desperation, Vice President Mitchell decided to clean up all the children of the forest in this world with a carpet search!"

"According to the information coming from the fortress, the direction in which a son of the forest escaped from the battlefield happened to be in the Nuoer City area."

"So, the mentor wants me to be responsible for capturing the children of the forest who fled to the Noel City area?" Enzo raised his brows with a surprised look on his face.

As the Tree of Elqira falls into silence, the power of the Children of the Forest will be unprecedentedly weak. Now, it is impossible for any Son of the Forest to exert the fighting power of a second-level life form.

In this case, the task of capturing the Son of the Forest can be considered very easy. It can even be completed by sending any wizard. Gustav does not need to use a second-level wizard like Enzo at all.

"If you just capture the son of the forest, you don't need to use the power of a second-level wizard."

Seemingly seeing Enzo's doubts, Gustav shook his head and said, "After the Son of the Forest escaped to the Noel City area, I judged that she should be hiding in the Corrupt Forest, so I sent three official wizards to arrest her.

."

"What's the result?" Enzo raised an eyebrow.

Now that the location of the Children of the Forest has been calculated, the next thing should be very simple. The Children of the Forest clan, which has lost the protection of the Tree of Elqira, is now almost extremely weak.

"As I deduced, the target is indeed hidden in the Corrupt Forest."

Gustav paused and said in a deep voice, "However, something unexpected happened. When the three wizards I sent arrived at the Corrupt Forest, they only found the body of the son of the forest!"

"Corpse?" Enzo narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, something in the corrupted forest killed the child of the forest and drained the blood from her body, leaving only the body and skin hanging on the tree." Gustav said slowly.

"What could it be? To kill the Children of the Forest?"

Enzo stroked his chin, his eyes sparkled slightly, and a look of interest appeared on his face.

The children of the forest belong to the second-level life forms. Although they have fallen into an extremely weak state with the silence of the Elqira Tree, they can still exert the fighting power of the first-level life forms.

The Corrupted Forest is just a remote forest near Noel City. The most powerful creature in it may be the hundred-eyed insect bear, which cannot possibly have the power to kill the Children of the Forest.

"I don't know what it is that sucks the blood of the children of the forest."

Gustav spread his hands and said, "So I plan to ask you to investigate, so that this matter can be explained."

Enzo pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "I understand, mentor, I'll leave now."

"There's no rush." ​​Gustav shook his head and said, "The three wizards I sent have brought the body of the Son of the Forest back to the tower. Before this mission begins, you may be able to go to the laboratory.

Check it out and get some more information."

"Is that so? That's fine."

Enzo thought for a moment, nodded slightly, then saluted Gustav with his chest, then left the room and headed to the tower laboratory.

…

"Is this the body of the Child of the Forest?"

Arriving at the high tower laboratory, Enzo looked at the biological specimens soaked in transparent liquid in front of him, with a hint of surprise on his face.

"Yes, Lord Wizard."

Next to him, the fallen spirit responsible for managing biological samples in the laboratory replied with a serious expression, "This corpse was in this state when it was first delivered to the laboratory, and no one has ever relieved it."

Enzo nodded slightly, and the son of the forest next to him bowed and stepped back.

"The child of the forest looked like this after all his blood was drained..."

Enzo stroked his chin, his eyes flashed with a glint of thought. The corpse in front of him had all its blood drained. Even though it was soaked in transparent liquid, it was still as limp as a shriveled skin.

"Chip, scan!" Enzo ordered in his mind.

As the subject was promoted to a second-level wizard, his spiritual power exceeded 20 points, his soul was transformed again, and the chip seemed to have been completely upgraded.

After using the scanning function of the chip, a large amount of information and data suddenly appeared in front of Enzo's eyes, all about the body of the son of the forest, which was obviously more detailed than before.

"The cause of death of the corpse is that the blood has been drained, and the natural energy that represents the life source of the children of the forest has also been devoured."

"The whole process lasted probably only a moment. When the son of the forest faced the unknown creature, he was killed without any resistance..."

"Although the Sons of the Forest clan has declined, it still retains at least the strength of a first-order life form. The fact that it was killed without any resistance means that the unknown creature she faced was at least as good as a second-order life form!"

Enzo's eyes flashed with thought, and through the data obtained from the chip scan, he analyzed the cause of death of the child of the forest and inferred the class of the unknown creature.

"Huh? What is that?"

Suddenly, Enzo noticed that on the body of the Son of the Forest in front of him, there was an extremely hidden and slender wound on the back of the head, which could not be discovered without careful observation.

Enzo hesitated and opened the glass cover that soaked the body of the Son of the Forest from above.

"This is……"

When he came to the top of the glass cover, Enzo put his fingers into the transparent liquid and gently poked the back of the corpse's head, and found that the back of the head was dented.

"it is as expected!"

Enzo's eyes flashed, and he opened the slender wound on the back of the corpse's head with his fingers, and found that inside the wound, the brain that originally belonged to the child of the forest had become an empty shell.

"After discovering the Children of the Forest, the unknown creature devoured the blood and life force and also took away the Children of the Forest's brain."

A thoughtful expression appeared on Enzo's face, and he murmured, "Such a method seems a bit familiar..."

Then, Enzo turned around and left the laboratory.

Having obtained enough information, Enzo made a preliminary inference about the identity of the unknown creature, and decided to head to the Corrupt Forest immediately.

"Hur! Hur!"

As soon as he walked out of the tower, Enzo saw a short green demon not far away, shouting at the air.

"There are at least three grammatical errors in your sentence just now." Enzo shook his head and walked towards the Green Devil.

"The language of these green monsters is so disgusting!"

The short Green Goblin complained, and then his body shape changed. A few seconds later, he turned into a black-feathered crow, fluttering its wings and landing on Enzo's shoulder.

"I just mastered the changing forms of those green-skinned monsters, but I can't learn their language." Swain said while combing his feathers with his beak.

"Take your time, don't rush."

Enzo raised his finger, stroked Swain's little head with a chuckle, and said, "Language is inherently a very complex knowledge, and it requires long-term study."

"By the way, Swain, how many biological transformation forms have you mastered now?"
