Wizard: Live hard and you will become stronger

Under the influence of the purification technique, the plague in the city was quickly resolved, giving the city on the verge of destruction another shot of milk.

However, the problem in Fengxi City is far more than just the plague. As the front line of the human kingdom bordering the Black Witch Territory, it is often attacked by the Gray Ridge Mountains in the north, including monsters, forest species, roaming bandits, etc.

Currently, only a few hundred people led by Carol are stationed in Fengxi City. It is still very difficult to defend such a large city with this.

But this was Carol's own problem, and Rosie couldn't help him. Soon after solving the plague, he continued on his journey towards the Gray Ridge Mountains.

Before leaving, he sorted out the situation here in detail, and then asked the raven to deliver it to the castle. He had been busy killing the dark wizards and curing the plague for a long time. No matter what, he had to take the credit.

In the afternoon of the same day, Raven arrived at the Castle of Elements carrying Luo Xi's letter. It happened that at this time the wizards were discussing matters related to the Black Witch Realm, and the letter was presented to the conference room.

In the conference room, Iris sat right in front, looking at the group of wizards around him.

She said quite dissatisfied: "Three times in a row, five wizards went to deal with the plague, but no one found that there was a dark wizard hiding in the city. In the end, it was the turn of a mere apprentice to wipe our butts. What's the reason for this? Who can explain it to me?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Kyle, the senior wizard of Ice Castle, said: "I don't think this can be completely blamed on the wizards who went to deal with it, right? After all, the task they received was only to treat the plague, and in the end they did an excellent job in eliminating the plague, didn't they?"

Iris sarcastically said: "Then the plague will break out as soon as his front feet go out, right?"

"The next wizard in the past was the same way. He dealt with the plague and ignored it. The plague recurred again and again without thinking about what was going on? What were the things I sent there? Alchemy golems?"

All the wizards were speechless.

This matter is indeed not easy to talk about. So many wizards have gone through it so many times, but they are all like alchemy puppets who only know how to execute orders rigidly. They only know how to deal with superficial problems without delving into them at all.

Witch Sophia of the Witch Castle said: "Fortunately, the problem has finally come to an end. We should give special recognition to this apprentice who made a contribution."

Other wizards also echoed:

"Yes, thanks to him we were able to avoid huge losses."

"If this dark wizard hadn't been found out, I don't know how much we would have lost in the end."

"He should be rewarded."

Although the death of a few humans is not worth mentioning to wizards, the losses caused by such large-scale deaths are still considerable. After all, wizards are derived from humans, and there may be some among so many people who died. An apprentice with wizard potential.

Everyone looked at Iris, and now it was Iris's turn to look a little unhappy.

Her eyes fell on the signature of the letter:

Rohi Herat.

The Gray Ridge Mountains are a huge mountain range in the northwest of the South Coast Witch Territory. It covers an area of ​​no less than ten thousand miles. Like a wall, it stretches across the west of the South Coast Witch Territory in a Y shape.

This mountain range also divides this witchland. To the east is the south coast witchland, and to the west is the dark forest.

A few days later, the Gray Ridge Mountains, Alpine Territory.

The Alpine Territory is a barony located in the Gray Ridge Mountains and belongs to the Duchy of Tarryn.

The Principality of Tanreen was originally part of the Kingdom of Karel, but it has always been inseparable from the Kingdom of Karel. A few years ago, it once again rebelled against the Kingdom of Karel and declared independence.

The underlying reason behind this is the confusion and instigation of the dark wizards in the Dark Forest, and because of this, the Kingdom of Tanreen, which found Karel, subsequently became a human kingdom under the control of the dark wizard domain of the Dark Forest. .

Gaoshan collar, Gaoshan town.

This is the first human town Luo Xi has come to after entering the Gray Ridge Mountains, and it is also the first inhabited place he has come to since entering the Black Witch Territory.

The first impression I gave him was probably lifeless.

There are almost no pedestrians on the dilapidated streets, and those who occasionally pass by are sallow, thin, and in a daze, like wandering zombies. But you know, there has been no war or plague here.

And as far as Luo Xi knows, this place used to be a large human town with a population of more than 100,000 and prosperous commerce.

But now

Luo Xi looked around, it was completely desolate.

"Holy water! The Truth Religion has blessed the holy water!" At this moment, someone shouted.

The pedestrians on the street suddenly seemed to be resurrected from the dead, rushing in one direction like a tide.

Luo Xi raised his eyebrows and followed.

His mission requirement is to conduct a detailed investigation of the human areas under the control of the Black Witch Domain, including population, governance, and other aspects. It is necessary to understand these things at hand.

Following these people all the way to the center of the town, they soon arrived at the square in the center of the town.

In the center of the wide square stands a tall sculpture of a humanoid monster with a ferocious face and a pair of large goat horns on its head that are very eye-catching.

Luo Xi was surprised and said: "The Fire Demon Iflet?"

Luo Xi, who had studied demonology, could tell at a glance the origin of this statue. It was none other than Iflet, the great demon known as the Balrog in ancient times.

There were several large wooden barrels placed under the statue, and a group of soldiers gathered around it. In the center of the soldiers stood several figures, all wearing black cloaks.

Luo Xi faintly felt mental fluctuations and elemental reactions from them. It was obvious that these people were all wizard apprentices.

At this moment, a young female apprentice stepped forward, raised her hands high, and shouted with a fanatical look: "The truth lasts forever and is immortal!"

As if some kind of switch had been pressed, the crowd below also raised their hands and shouted:

"The truth endures and is immortal!"

"The truth endures and is immortal!"

People's faces were all filled with extremely fanatical expressions, as if they were performing some kind of sacred ceremony.

Afterwards, people lined up under the organization of the soldiers.

The soldiers opened the lid of the barrel, brought spoons and wooden bowls, scooped out some unknown liquid from the barrel and distributed it to the people who came to receive it.

This liquid seemed to have some kind of unique magic power, and these people felt more excited after drinking it.

"What is this thing?"

Luo Xi was very curious. After a moment of reflection, he also blended into the crowd and lined up one by one.

Soon, it was his turn.

The soldier poured a bowl of 'holy water' and handed it to him.

Luo Xi took it over and looked at it. It looked the same as water. Luo Xi picked it up and smelled it and couldn't smell anything. However, he could feel the unique elemental fluctuations inside. It was obviously not ordinary. liquid.

"Drink quickly!"

Seeing that Luo Xi had not drank the holy water for a long time, the soldiers behind him couldn't help but scolded him coldly.

"What happened?"

At this moment, a female voice sounded, and the witch apprentice came over.

The soldier pointed at Luo Xihui and reported: "Report to the Holy Envoy, this guy is sneaky. He received the holy water but didn't drink it."

After hearing this, the female apprentice couldn't help turning her head to look at Luo Xi.

Their eyes intertwined, but Luo Xi was slightly startled. This was because he actually knew this female apprentice.
