Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 626 Emerald City

After the cursed castle was destroyed, everyone appeared in a wasteland.

"Excuse me, sir, is there anything we can do for you?"

The white-robed wizard pondered for a moment and then asked hesitantly, "The news that the Xingtong Kingdom has been enveloped by the Abyss Restricted Area has been reported back to the academy. I wonder if Mr. Mitchell has any arrangements for this place?"

Enzo didn't answer and looked around.

In his mind, the map of the entire Xingtong Kingdom has emerged. This wasteland is not far from the direction of Emerald City.

"Does any of you know about the Emerald City?" Enzo raised his head and asked everyone.

"Emerald City?"

A trace of doubt appeared on the face of the bald wizard Xia Zuo, and he said, "I know that place. Before the Abyss Restricted Area appeared, I visited a friend there. I don't know why Sir Enzo asked this."

"Have you been to the Emerald City, do you know the Wizard of Bourne?" Enzo raised an eyebrow.

The bald wizard Xia Zuo nodded and said, "My friend in Emerald City is Wizard Bourne. He married my sister decades ago, so technically we are still related."

A look of surprise appeared on Enzo's face.

The Xingtong Kingdom is only one of hundreds of kingdoms in the Dark Realm. There are no more than fifty wizards in the entire kingdom, and most of them are from the Campbell family, so almost all of them know each other.

"What happened to Bourne when you left the Emerald City?" Enzo asked.

The main reason why Enzo entered the restricted area of ​​​​the abyss was to find Bourne. After confirming the safety of his old friend, he prepared to conduct a comprehensive exploration operation.

"Before I left, everything was normal in Emerald City."

The bald wizard Xia Zuo answered honestly, "Bern complained to me before that training resources have become less and less recently. He needs to prepare for at least twenty years before he has a chance to reach the second-level wizard realm."

"But no one expected that the abyss restricted area would appear!"

The bald wizard Xia Zuo said, his face a little ugly, looking at the surrounding wilderness shrouded in the abyss, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

As for other people's reactions, it's even more so.

Those extraordinary knights are all followers of the wizard. If even the wizard cannot break through the forbidden area of ​​​​the abyss, then it will be even more impossible for them.

The white-robed wizard raised his head and looked at Enzo expectantly.

Among the people present, this mysterious wizard is undoubtedly the strongest, possessing at least level two strength or above. Perhaps as long as he has the ability, he can lead everyone out of the restricted area of ​​​​the abyss to a safe place.

Enzo ignored everyone's expectant looks.

There are dangers everywhere in the Abyss Restricted Area. Although Enzo is not afraid, it is obviously troublesome to bring a bunch of oil bottles. He comes to the Abyss Restricted Area mainly to find Bourne and has no obligation to help others.

The reason why he took action to break the curse of the castle was just a matter of convenience.

"You guys should find a place to hide."

Enzo's tone was calm and he said softly, ": I am going to the Emerald City and will conduct exploration operations later. Before the Abyss Restricted Area completely breaks out, if you still want to live, find a shelter as soon as possible."

After saying that, Enzo turned into a shadow and disappeared.

The faces of the bald wizard Xia Zuo and others suddenly changed, but before they had time to speak, Enzo had already disappeared without a trace. They looked at each other and saw an uneasy glint in each other's eyes.

"What should we do now?" the white-robed wizard said solemnly.

"Follow the advice of that Enzo wizard and find a place to hide." The bald wizard Xia Zuo also had a hint of helplessness on his face. He originally planned to seek Enzo's help, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't give them a chance at all.

Everyone discussed on the spot for a moment and then made a decision.

Since Enzo suggested that they hide, it means that in the next period of time, a major event is likely to occur in the abyss restricted area. First-order wizards or extraordinary knights are involved, and there is a possibility of death.

Therefore, hiding is undoubtedly the best way.

On the other side, after Enzo separated from everyone, he also turned into a shadow form and headed towards the Emerald City.

It had been many years since he had used this method to move forward, but Enzo didn't feel unfamiliar at all. The path he took was that of shadow. After being promoted to the All Souls Wizard, he became the incarnation of shadow.

Not long after, a city appeared ahead.

There is a strong atmosphere of the abyss surrounding it, and the black mist seems to block everything. The sunlight cannot shine here at all, but because the city wall itself is made of a green rock, it has a hint of emerald-like luster.

This is the Emerald City!

Among the sixteen cities in the Xingtong Kingdom, Emerald City is not special, and the nearby resource points are not considered rich, but it is still one of the territories that the Campbell family wizards strive for.

As a foreign wizard, the reason why Bourne became the lord of this city was not only because he was a wizard of Crows Phantom, but also because he married a woman from the Campbell family, a third-level apprentice who studied in Crows Phantom.

Strictly speaking, there is a master-student relationship between Bourne and his wife.

After struggling on the path of a wizard for decades, Byrne was lucky enough to be promoted to an official wizard. Because he was born in the Phantom Crows, like most wizards, he chose to stay in the academy and become a mentor after becoming an official wizard.

As a mentor, he naturally has the power to recruit disciples.

At that time, Byrne had already established some connections with the Campbell family. While accepting the tribute from the Campbell family, he also had to pay some prices.

So, among the current batch of apprentices, the Campbell family sent a girl.

The talent is only at the third level, which is not very good, but it has surpassed Bourne. At the request of the Campbell family, Bourne accepted the girl as his disciple, and based on the principle of equal exchange in the wizarding world, he became the leader of the girl wizard path.

More than ten years have passed quickly.

Byrne, who has become an official wizard, has stabilized his realm, and Judith, the girl from the Campbell family, was promoted to a third-level apprentice with the help of her family and mentor.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! After spending more than ten years together day and night, Bourne and Judith developed feelings.

In the wizarding world, it is not particularly unusual for a disciple and a mentor to become partners. With the supervision of the Campbell family, Bourne, after some consideration, married Judith as his partner.

After that, he left the college.

The Campbell family handed over the Emerald City to Bourne as his resource territory. According to Bourne's plan, it only takes thirty years of management for him to get a chance to attack the second-level wizard, although the success rate is less than one tenth.

.

But even so, it was enough for Bourne.

His wizard talent is not outstanding. Being able to become an official wizard requires a lot of luck. Attacking a second-level wizard is an attempt, and with the help of a large amount of resources, the success rate is still very slim.

After marrying Judith as his partner and obtaining the Emerald City as his territory, Bourne thought that his life would be spent in peace, but he never expected that the fallen wizard of Skull Castle was wreaking havoc in the Star Pass Kingdom for unknown reasons.

It was precisely because of the evil behavior of those fallen wizards that directly led to the formation of the Abyss Forbidden Zone!

"Why can't I feel Bourne's breath?"

Outside the Emerald City, on the desolate plain, Enzo looked at the green city in the distance with a trace of doubt on his face.

The city shrouded in the aura of the abyss seemed to be cut off from everything outside.

Enzo tried to use his mental power to perceive, but found that he could not enter the Emerald City with his mind, as if the rules here had been completely disrupted.

He could not sense Bourne's presence.

It is even impossible to perceive everything in the Emerald City, and it is not even clear whether there are survivors inside.

On the same spot, Enzo's eyes flashed.

He raised his arms and spread his palms, and a dim light appeared in his palms, turning into an illusory crow and flying towards the Emerald City.

The crow transformed by magic soon entered the Emerald City.

This time, Enzo finally saw the scene inside Emerald City. The streets of Emerald City, which used to be prosperous in the past, now looked extremely desolate. Phantom crows were flying in the sky, and their dark eyes were staring down.

At the street corner, I finally noticed something unusual.

Several gluttonous demons with belly as big as drums are wandering around, seemingly searching for food in the Emerald City. The alienated humans infected by the breath of the abyss have become bloodthirsty and crazy.

After finding nothing for several hours, the mentor gluttons began to become anxious.

Even when they looked at their companions, they became greedy. They didn't know that it was the Gluttonous Demon who roared first, then threw one of his companions to the ground and bit him fiercely.

The scene suddenly became extremely chaotic.

The appearance of humans transformed into demons in the restricted area of ​​the abyss is a normal thing. Enzo has no interest in the gluttonous demons killing each other, and is ready to drive the phantom crow to move forward with a thought.

But at this moment, a burst of footsteps suddenly sounded.

Not far away, in a building as tall as a church, a figure shrouded in gray robes appeared. He was holding an oil lamp in his hand. The burning oil gave off a strange smell. When the gluttonous demons saw it, they all showed longing expressions.

"The taste of food!"

A gluttonous demon let out a hoarse roar and rushed towards the man in gray robe uncontrollably. The thin man in gray robe seemed unusually calm. He casually snapped his fingers, and the head of the gluttonous demon that rushed towards him exploded.

Bang!

The headless corpse fell to the ground, and the rest of the Gluttony Demons immediately swarmed up and devoured the corpses of their companions. However, no matter how much they ate, becoming a Gluttony Demon meant that they would always be hungry and would always be slaves to Gluttony.

Immediately afterwards, two more men in gray robes with lanterns appeared.

"How is it? How is the situation here?"

The three men in gray robes carrying lanterns obviously knew each other. When they met each other, they looked at the lanterns in each other's hands. One of them said enviously, "Looking at the brightness of your soul-robbing lamp, I'm afraid you have captured at least five hundred souls, right?"

"There, isn't it going well for you there?"

"Alas, Emerald City is a large city within the Kingdom of Xingtong. But after the formation of the Abyss Restricted Area, all members of the organization rushed here. Now it is really difficult to catch a fallen soul."

One of the men in gray robes with a lamp complained.

"Hey, we're pretty good here." Next to him, another man in gray robe with a lantern said, "I just came from Windmill Town three days ago. The situation there was really bad. Almost all the civilians in the town died.

, the souls were also captured.”

"Stop talking and get to work quickly."

At this time, a man in gray robes with a lamp shook his head and said, "The task assigned to us by our instructor has not been completed yet. We will be punished again soon. I don't want to be locked up in the water prison again."

Thinking of the horror of the water prison method, the three men in gray robes with lamps all trembled.

At the same time, outside the Emerald City.

Through the vision of the Phantom Crow, Enzo has seen everything that happened in the city. From the conversations between the three gray-robed people with lanterns, it seems to be confirmed that they are all apprentices from the Skeleton Castle and are performing the tasks of their mentors.

As for the content of their tasks, it is naturally self-evident.

The lantern in his hand should be some kind of magical item that can absorb souls. The main reason why the Skeleton Castle is in the Xingtong Kingdom, at least in the Abyss restricted area, is to plunder souls.

After becoming a fallen wizard organization, Skull Castle's behavior has completely gone to the extreme of evil.

Even the high-level wizards inside have begun to defect to the abyss.

They plan to use the forbidden area of ​​​​the abyss to perform evil abyss sacrifices, gain more power by offering sacrifices to the Demon God of Gluttony, and then plunge directly into the embrace of the abyss.

This is basically the only path for fallen wizards.

The soul is the universal currency of the abyss world, and its meaning is just like the magic stone in the wizarding world. Most demon lords can increase their strength by devouring souls.

The key to offering sacrifices to the Demon God of Gluttony lies in the human soul.

Only by capturing enough souls can we attract the attention of the Gluttonous Demon God, thereby lowering the power to promote the fallen wizards. Now, the entire Xingtong Kingdom is full of fallen wizards harvesting souls.

In the Emerald City, the three fallen people finished talking.

They are all just external members of Skeleton Castle. Before being promoted to the first-level wizard level, their status is not high. They need to complete a certain number of tasks every day to avoid punishment from their mentors.

But now, we are still far away from the mission indicators.

After the three of them talked, they prepared to leave. However, at this time, a fallen person noticed an illusory crow in the sky.

"Look! What is that?"

The gray-robed fallen man holding the lantern had a trace of confusion on his face. He had never seen the Phantom Crow, but he just felt an uneasy feeling in his heart.

Following the direction of their companion's fingers, the other two fallen men also looked at him.

The next moment, the illusory crow opened its mouth.

A shadow slowly emerged from the mouth like an endless whirlpool, and then fell on the ground and turned into a human form. It was Enzo from outside the Emerald City.

The rules of the abyss restricted area are disordered, resulting in restrictions on the wizard's abilities.

However, performing a teleportation-like spell through the phantom crow is still an easy task for Enzo, a fourth-level wizard.
