Journey to the Wizarding World

White snowflakes were flying in the sky, and a biting cold wind swept across the plains.

In the distance, a motorcade was moving forward in the wind and snow. In the middle car, three figures were holding a small stove to keep warm.

Elena's face was gentle and she stroked her daughter's cheek.

Nicole was curled up in her mother's arms. She was a little tired from last night's dedication and was currently sleeping.

Opposite him, Enzo looked calm.

Last night, he used the power of illusion to successfully deceive the Weeping Goddess. Enzo also joined the Weeping Goddess's Church. As a friend and follower of the Night Goddess, the Weeping Goddess's Church is an affiliated force of the Night Church.

"Ahead is the icy plain. I wonder what Ms. Elena has planned."

Enzo suddenly spoke and looked at Elena calmly. Since he had disguised himself as a believer of the Weeping Goddess, the next step was to sneak into the higher-ups.

"The world is ignorant, and therefore falls into unprovoked wars."

Elena shook her head and said in a serious tone: "My Lord has sent down an oracle, asking us to help the new king of Kaiyuan Kingdom win the war, and the rebellious Prime Minister Edgar must also be punished."

"Sisters in the church have all entered the cold field."

"Under the watchful eye of the great crying goddess, the war will soon end, and the Kingdom of Kaiyuan will welcome the goddess's protection."

Elena's voice was respectful and seemed extremely pious.

Enzo's heart moved and he immediately understood the intention of the Weeping Goddess. The Kingdom of Kaiyuan is currently in civil strife. The new king and the Prime Minister are at war, causing the civilians to be in dire straits. It is the perfect time to spread the faith at this time.

Moreover, the Weeping Goddess has decided to support the new king Dylan.

As long as she can help the new king Dylan end the war, the Weeping Goddess can take advantage of the situation and develop the new king into her own believer, thereby controlling the entire Kingdom of Kaiyuan through the divine right of kingship.

If all goes well, the entire Kingdom of Kaiyuan will fall into the hands of the Weeping Goddess.

What's more important is that the current new king Dylan is in a weak stage, and getting help from the Weeping Goddess is something he wishes for. He has almost no reason to refuse her.

The wheels are rolling, heading towards the cold plains.

After passing through a forest, we finally arrived at the territory of the Kingdom of Kaiyuan. A hundred years ago, O'Quinn, the first king of Kaiyuan, after being promoted to an extraordinary knight, went all over the country and conquered the vast territory of Nuo.

However, as the first king disappeared.

The major kingdoms that were originally suppressed by O'Quinn immediately began to counterattack, not only regaining the lost territory, but also formulating various treaties against the Kingdom of Kaiyuan to limit the development of the Kingdom of Kaiyuan.

However, one hundred years have passed.

The original Kingdom of Kaiyuan only consisted of five cities. After more than a hundred years of development, it now has seven cities, except for the core Kaiyuan City and the surrounding Black Crow City and Golden City.

Lighthouse City and Wolf Fang City were also built.

These two cities were originally small towns. After a hundred years of development, they have reached the size of cities and their economies are very prosperous.

"The lighthouse city is ahead."

Elena suddenly opened the car window and looked at the scenery outside. After taking a deep breath, her eyes became firm.

As the most loyal believer of the goddess, she is determined to spread faith for the goddess.

At the same time, Nicole, who was sleeping in her mother's arms, also woke up in the bumpy carriage. When she opened her eyes and saw Enzo, a trace of shyness appeared on her face.

Everything that happened last night is still vivid in my mind.

However, she doesn't know that everything is an illusion.

The illusion created by the All-Soul Wizard can even deceive the Weeping Goddess. For Elena and her daughter, it is almost indistinguishable from what really happened.

"Lighthouse Town..."

Enzo also looked along the window opened by Elena, and the city he saw was somewhat familiar. Although it had changed greatly compared with a hundred years ago, it still vaguely retained a trace of its former appearance.

A trace of nostalgia appeared on Enzo's face.

When he first traveled through this world, he had been here before, but it was still a lighthouse town, remote and barren. After a hundred years of development, it has now grown to the size of a city.

According to the description on the map, Lighthouse Town is located on the border of Kaiyuan Kingdom.

Not only does it border the Red Castle Kingdom, it can also be used as a transit point to go to the Eagle Kingdom in the south. Therefore, many businessmen will settle here, and the destination of the tour group is also here.

After the convoy entered Beacon City, it soon came to a guild hall.

This is the foothold of the brigade in Lighthouse City, and the goods sent from the Silver Moon Kingdom will also be transited here.

Tap tap tap!

As soon as everyone in the brigade entered the clubhouse, there was suddenly a burst of noisy footsteps outside, and a group of soldiers wearing armor broke in.

"Sir, what are you doing?"

The owner of the tour group hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile on his face: "We are all businessmen from the Silver Moon Kingdom and come from the Gina family."

"Get out of the way and perform official duties!"

However, this group of soldiers pushed the brigade boss away and went directly to the brigade's goods. They inspected them unceremoniously and found that the goods were clothes, quilts and other daily necessities.

The travel group owner was frightened, not knowing what the other party was doing and his intentions.

"Hmph! I guess you guys are wise!"

The leader of this group of soldiers sneered and said, "Now the Kingdom of Kaiyuan is in civil strife. By order of the Prime Minister, all goods entering Kaiyuan must be strictly inspected."

"If military supplies are found, they will be confiscated."

"If someone hides a weapon, he will be executed directly regardless of his identity!"

The soldier commander said, patting the carriage carelessly, and said, "I have already inspected your cargo, and there is no military supplies. But now I have to conduct a private inspection on you. Please stand aside."

After that, a group of soldiers prepared to search him.

The expression of the brigade boss changed. Hearing what the soldier commander said, Prime Minister Edgar was strictly investigating the merchants entering Kaiyuan. Although there was no problem with the brigade's goods, the guards were carrying weapons.

"My lord! My lord!"

Seeing that the soldiers were about to search the brigade, the boss of the brigade quickly took out a bag of gems from his arms, stuffed it into the other party's hand, and said flatteringly, "For my small kindness, I'll treat you all to a drink."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "To be honest, we are just businessmen."

"Coming from the Silver Moon Kingdom, you will inevitably encounter bandits and bad guys. If it is too dangerous not to carry weapons, please forgive me."

The officer grabbed the cloth bag, opened it and looked at it, with a slight smile on his face.

"That's right. If you think you're interested, let's go."

Seeing that the boss of the brigade was so polite, the commander didn't feel embarrassed. He stuffed the gems in his cloth pocket into his arms and called everyone to prepare to leave.

In a moment, the soldiers disappeared.

The travel group boss was relieved, but at the same time he felt a little bit pained. The gems he just bribed were worth a lot of money, almost as much as the entire profit from the goods, which meant that the travel group's trip was in vain.

"Are those Prime Minister Edgar's men?" Enzo asked.

"Oh! That's not true." The tour group owner looked helpless and complained, "I heard that the situation in Kaiyuan Kingdom was in chaos before. I thought I could make a lot of money, but now it seems that I have to lose a lot. What a bad luck!

"

Next to him, Elena came over.

"In today's Kaiyuan Kingdom, five of the seven cities are under the control of Prime Minister Edgar. Therefore, even the new king Dylan feels a little afraid of his power."

Elena's eyes were firm and she whispered.

"But it doesn't matter. My Lord has determined that the new king Dylan will definitely become the ruler of Kaiyuan Kingdom as long as he has the help of the goddess."

Enzo's eyes flickered, thinking slightly in his heart.

"Why didn't the Weeping Goddess choose Prime Minister Edgar?" he asked.

After hearing this, Elena's face changed slightly, and she said solemnly, "The thoughts of the Weeping Goddess are not something we mortals can speculate on. Since she chooses Dylan, it is enough to prove that the new king Dylan is the chosen one!"

"As believers of the goddess, what we need to do is to assist Dylan as much as possible, stabilize the situation in the Kingdom of Kaiyuan, and at the same time spread the faith of the goddess so that more people can receive the goddess's protection before the end of the world."

Enzo nodded slightly, but he sneered in his heart.

The Weeping Goddess sends her followers to the Kingdom of Kaiyuan just to control the kingdom and spread her faith at the same time. As for who she chooses to rule the kingdom, it won't make much difference to her.

In today's Kaiyuan Kingdom, Prime Minister Edgar's power is obviously more powerful.

But the Weeping Goddess chose the weak Dylan, which made Enzo speculate about the reason.

"You don't necessarily need a reason to choose Dylan."

Enzo's mind flashed with thoughts, and he thought to himself, "But since the Weeping Goddess didn't choose Edgar, there must be some reasons."

While he was thinking, there was a noise outside.

On the street outside, a group of soldiers wearing green armor escorted a prison van through the city.

In a cage made of steel, a girl was trapped inside.

"apprentice?"

Enzo's heart moved, and he felt that the girl seemed to exude a breath of the wizard's apprentice, which meant that the girl had magic power in her body.

"Oh my God, what number is this?"

"A witch again?"

"It looks quite beautiful, but unfortunately, it will be burned to death soon."

There were whispers around him, and a trace of thought appeared on Enzo's face. He closed his eyes and felt the atmosphere around him.

He felt a trace of divine power from those soldiers in green armor.

"Another god?"

Enzo opened his eyes and frowned slightly. From the green armor soldiers, he felt a hint of the aura of the gods. Obviously these people were also believers of a certain god, but they were not the Weeping Goddess.

"They're from the Giant Tree Church!" Next to her, Elena whispered.

"Giant Tree Church?" Enzo looked confused.

"Yes, the evil Green Tree God Ge Weng!" Elena said with a serious face: "He is my lord's enemy, an evil god, and Edgar, the Prime Minister of Kaiyuan Kingdom, is his minion."

A hint of surprise appeared on Enzo's face.

Now, he finally understood why the Weeping Goddess wanted to support Dylan. It turned out that Prime Minister Edgar had found a backer, and it was the more powerful Green Tree God Gion, who was much more powerful than the Weeping Goddess.

Under such circumstances, the Weeping Goddess can only choose Dylan.

"What's going on?"

Enzo raised his eyebrows and pointed to the prison car outside and asked.

"A witch."

Elena was accustomed to the scene in front of her and said in a disgusted tone: "Evil wizards are the source of all disasters. No matter which god it is, they will be burned at the stake after discovering them."

"Even Gion, the god of green trees, is no exception."

Enzo's face showed a hint of depression, but then he understood that the Abandoned Land was an area abandoned by wizard civilization. Several gods spread their faith here, and everything related to wizards must be cleared away.

Otherwise, once a formal wizard appears, he can leave the abandoned land and tell the Northern Council everything that happened here. At that time, several gods will naturally be surrounded by the council.

At the same time, wizards are absolute enemies to the ancient gods.

In the Northern Continent or the Stigma Continent, the gods are like rats crossing the street. They have to be careful even when spreading their faith, and naturally they dare not openly oppose the wizard civilization. However, in the Abandoned Land, they have no such concerns.

The act of hunting down wizards not only prevents future troubles, but is also a way for the gods to vent their anger.

On the street, green-armored soldiers escorted the prison van.

"Your Excellency Enzo is interested, why don't we go and have a look together?" Elena suggested.

"...that's fine."

Enzo nodded, walked out of the guild hall with Elena, and followed the prison car to a square. The place was already piled with firewood and surrounded by some civilians. They looked angry when they saw the wizard.

"It seems that the abandoned land has recognized the existence of gods."

Enzo frowned. A hundred years ago, the mysterious people in the abandoned land did not reach the level of shouting and beating. But now, under the indoctrination of belief in gods, it seems that the common people also recognize wizards as evil existences.

Although it was just an apprenticeship.

Enzo could feel that the apprentice had only a faint trace of magic power, and even a second-level apprentice could not defeat him. He should be someone who was lucky enough to receive the wizard's inheritance and embark on a wizard's journey.

If it were a hundred years ago, it would be a blessing to have a wizard's inheritance.

Although in an abandoned land with scarce resources, a little bit of wizard inheritance would make it impossible to be promoted to an official wizard, but it would allow her to gain extraordinary power and become a guest of honor in all major kingdoms.

But now, this extraordinary power has become a curse.

With the arrival of several gods, a craze of faith has already set off in the abandoned land. Ignorant people firmly believe in gods and believe that wizards are evil existences. If they find someone using magic, they will report it to the church as soon as possible.

It was through this method that the Giant Tree Church caught the girl.

The public burning at the stake also served as a warning to the people not to disobey the gods' orders to learn witchcraft, thereby leaving a seed in the hearts of every ordinary person, believing that extraordinary power should not exist.
