Just as Richard and three wizard apprentices from the Gulus Academy were having a small incident at the Black Forest Market.
Although nearly half a day had passed, the person who was supposed to contact Lucius at the Ignis School had not received any feedback from Lucius.
The contact frowned, wondering if something had happened, such as the failure of the killing mission? Although it stands to reason that Lucius and the other two should not have any accidents, but up to now, there has been no feedback, which makes him restless.
Lucius and the other two were considered the most powerful among the second-level wizard apprentices. When the three of them joined forces, ordinary third-level wizard apprentices would be unable to handle them, not to mention that they were only dealing with a second-level wizard apprentice this time.
But after waiting for another half an hour, the contact person could no longer sit still, and immediately called a few people to go with him to check it out.
Led by a strange little beast, the few of them quickly followed the route taken by Lucius and the other two, and headed forward along the western path.
Finally, before it got completely dark, the three of them arrived at the place where Richard, Lucius and the other two were fighting.
The strange little beast turned three times in place, indicating that Lucius's breath disappeared here.
The contact person and the few people who were accompanying him immediately began a careful search. After searching for a while, they finally found some clues. Obviously, this was the scene of the battle.
But judging from the deliberately concealed scene, it showed that one side must have won. Taking into account that Lucius and the other two had not sent any signals, the contact person basically concluded that the attempt to kill the target person had failed, and none of Lucius and the other two survived.
This made him shudder all over!
You know, Lucius and the other two were all outstanding among the second-level wizard apprentices of the Ring of North, especially Lucius. His mentor was quite fond of him and believed that the probability of Lucius being promoted to a formal wizard was more than 60%.
But now, it is lost here.
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, the contact immediately took out a blood falcon corpse from his arms, entered the information, and immediately asked the blood falcon to send a message to Joachim
.
Deep in the Norman secret realm.
The body of a tall lobster man lay lying on the spot, with a fatal wound on his body: a large hole in his chest that even the thick shell could not withstand.
The man in black robe standing nearby, reading the message from Blood Falcon, was none other than Joachim, a level three wizard apprentice from the Ring of North.
"What a waste! Lucius is such a waste. Three of them couldn't even handle a second-level wizard apprentice. In the end, I had to do it myself." Joachim was a little anxious.
The other two were fine, but Lucius' mentor was considered quite powerful among formal wizards.
Now, the matter of his schoolmate Jenna has not yet come to an end, and Lucius is involved again. If the two official wizards come to him to ask for an explanation, he will be in trouble.
I will be like that fried egg, fried until golden on both sides.
It seems that things can't be delayed any longer. It's a pity to waste such a good Norman Secret Realm!
Damn it, if I wait a few more days, I can collect enough supplies to exchange for the Crimson Shock Mixture, but now, I'd better hurry up and deal with things first!
Although he felt a little regretful, Joachim no longer hesitated and immediately turned around and rushed towards the exit of the secret realm.
After all, it's the same if you come back after you've dealt with your business. It's just a few days later, but these few days won't make a difference.
In Joachim's mind, killing a second-level wizard apprentice like Richard was just a trivial matter
.
It was gradually getting dark.
However, Richard, who had just obtained a new mount, was a little excited. Moreover, considering his strength, there didn't seem to be any monsters or dangers in the Black Forest that required special attention.
So, Richard drove the mutant winter wolf along the forest path and galloped rapidly towards the Kingdom of Heron.
The saddle given by the Modimus family's mount shop seems to be made of the tanned skin of a monster called a black-horned sheep. It has very good breathability and comfort. Moreover, the wolf's waist is very flexible, unlike that of a horse, and has excellent shock absorption performance.
Richard sat on the mutant winter wolf. Except that the wind was a bit strong when he was going too fast, which made his hair messy, there were almost no disadvantages.
Now, Richard's overall travel comfort level has been improved by more than two levels.
At this speed, the journey originally planned for five days is estimated to be completed in two days.
Just as Richard was sitting comfortably on the back of the mutant winter wolf, enjoying the alien version of the "Mercedes-Benz Maybach", a gray-robed man was chasing him from behind, with a green airflow surrounding him. He was running quickly behind the mutant winter wolf with his legs almost leaving an afterimage.
If you look down from a high altitude, although the gray-robed man is trying his best to use his two legs to hurry forward, he is still getting farther and farther away from the agile white figure several miles ahead.
Although the gray-robed man didn't see the white figure in front of him, he didn't get discouraged. He kept muttering to himself while running: "Does this wandering apprentice know that I will chase him? He is so fast. It's been two hours and it's so dark. Isn't he looking for a place to camp?
Although there are no particularly powerful monsters in this black forest, a second-level wizard apprentice is still afraid of monsters.
I just don't believe you can keep running without camping!"
Muken, who had been chasing for half an hour, naturally did not want to give up the fat meat that was about to be in his hands.
In his opinion, since this wandering apprentice had the ability to spend a premium of one thousand magic stones to buy this mutant winter wolf, it meant that he must have something more valuable on him, or a large amount of magic stones.
Either way, it represents a fat sheep.
Although it was very tiring for him to chase after him, he was sure that the other party must be looking for a place to rest.
By then, it would be easy for him to capture a wandering apprentice with the strength of a second-level wizard apprentice.
Half an hour later, Richard, whose novelty had worn off, squeezed his legs together, slowing down the mutant winter wolf, and began searching on both sides of the trail.
After a while, we found a wolverine's den not far from the trail.
After driving away the wolverine, Richard rested here.
Why choose the wolverine's lair? This question is actually quite interesting. Originally, Richard lacked knowledge in this area, but after spending half a year in the Gray Fern Wilderness, his experience immediately increased.
First of all, monster nests are generally not the first choice. Most monsters don't care about the hygiene of their own nests. The smell is strong!
Even after cleaning, there is still a faint smell of excrement.
Badgers, or badgers, generally have very clean dens because they defecate outside the burrows.
Simply put, badgers will build a dry toilet outside the cave. In this way, the sanitation of this cave is very good except that it is a little smaller.
The wolverine is a larger species of badger, so Richard didn't feel crowded when going in and out.
Of course, the best is a badger, but it is hard to find one nearby. Richard was lucky to find the wolverine's cave. After finding the campsite, the natural thing to do is to solve the problem of food and drink.
When it comes to his diet, Richard will never compromise if he has the conditions, and will be relatively particular.
So, after a while, a strong aroma of wine and barbecue wafted from the entrance of the wolverine's cave, and the mutant winter wolf next to it was drooling with greed, and kept circling around Richard to act coquettishly and cute.
"Hey! Don't you eat raw food? Why do you want to eat cooked food?" Richard glanced at the mutant winter wolf and was also speechless.
This guy saw himself grilling meat and seemed to realize that grilled meat tasted much better than raw meat. He immediately stopped eating his raw meat and turned around to act cute and ask for the cooked meat.
What a smart guy!
"However, considering your hard work in hunting spotted rabbits, I will help you roast three rabbit heads!" Richard shook his head helplessly.
The three spotted rabbits that the mutant winter wolf had just hunted were quite fat, so it was considered a credit.
Richard cut off twelve rabbit legs and threw the rest to the mutant winter wolf to eat. Unexpectedly, this guy was actually a foodie and could tell that they tasted better when roasted.
So, when Muken followed the mutant winter wolf's footsteps and arrived near the wolverine cave, tired and hungry, he saw this scene.
I saw a man and a wolf sitting around a campfire, biting into the delicious barbecue. The "wandering wizard apprentice" also had a bottle of fine wine, and the aroma of wine filled the air.
Muken swallowed and sniffed. "Damn! Avosha honey wine, this one bottle costs five magic stones!"
Muken, who was well-informed, immediately determined the type of drink the other person was drinking from the faint honey flavor in the wine.
He immediately determined that the other party was undoubtedly a fat sheep. He usually couldn't bear to drink this kind of wine, and so far, he had only drunk it twice.
At this moment, Richard, who was gnawing on a roasted rabbit leg and drinking fine wine, had already sensed the uninvited guest before Muken discovered them.
Moreover, through his keen sense of breath, he knew that this uninvited guest was the third-level wizard apprentice from Gurus Academy whom he met in the mount shop before. Now, Richard was just pretending to be completely unaware.
The mutant winter wolf, this hot guy, had snot and tears running down his face, but he was reluctant to give up the spicy rabbit head in his mouth.
That's right, Richard deliberately added some ingredients to the three rabbit heads of the mutant winter wolf.
Although the taste is a bit strong, it is definitely spicy and numbing. The mutant winter wolf is now experiencing a soul-searching question: "Continue eating or give up? It's really spicy, but delicious!"
I didn't notice anyone approaching.
Muken thought for a while, then took out a small transparent glass bottle from his arms, which contained a small amount of gray liquid.
"Pop~" Muken pulled out the cork from the bottle, and immediately, a strange stench came out.
Pinching his nose, Mu Ken drank it in one gulp with a bitter face, and then began to slowly knead his face.
After Muken quickly rubbed his chin, surprisingly, a beard began to grow on his chin.
Without stopping, Muken slowly kneaded from the chin to the earlobe, and his face changed dramatically, from being fair and beardless to having a beard.
After that, Muken began to gently rub his nose, and slowly, his nose changed from a high nose bridge to a red rosacea.
A few minutes later, a bearded old man with rosacea appeared. His face, hair color and even voice had changed drastically compared to before. This man was Muken who had drunk the disguise potion.
Disguise Potion, a rare potion preparation, has the special function of changing body shape and characteristics, but it has a certain time limit.
Muken thought for a moment, then took out a black robe from the package, deliberately soiled it, and tore a few small holes in it. Then he changed out of the standard gray robe of the Gulus Academy and replaced the short staff in his hand with a piece of dead branch picked up nearby.
At this point, Muken had completed his "rag-and-bone" transformation, from a young, handsome man to a destitute old man.
Muken looked at himself carefully again, and after making sure that there were no flaws, he walked out of the bushes in a tattered black robe and slowly walked towards Richard.
"It smells so good! Lost traveler, I hope to receive some gift." The old man's red rosacea twitched and he squinted his eyes, as if immersed in the aroma of roasted rabbit meat.
Richard looked up and was stunned!
Because he had just sensed the aura and was sure that the other party was the third-level wizard apprentice from Gurus College that he met in the mount shop. How come it suddenly turned out to be this bearded old man in front of him?
A traveler who happened to pass by here?
Richard's sharp eyesight allowed him to clearly see every pore on the man's rosacea, and sweat was still being secreted from the pores. Obviously, the man's face was as real as it could be, and it was definitely not a disguise covered by a human skin mask.
What was going on? Richard's brain started to work at high speed.
There are only two possibilities. The first is that I just perceived it wrongly, and the second is that the other party used some kind of witchcraft to change his body shape or disguise himself.
But as far as he knew, Transfiguration, an extremely rare magic, was difficult to perform even for a formal wizard, let alone a third-level wizard apprentice.
However, he had hunted hundreds of different monsters in the Gray Fern Wilderness, and had developed a precise perception, so the possibility of error was extremely small. Obviously, the first situation was unlikely.
Then there is only the second possibility.
Richard raised the corner of his mouth. Since the other party wanted to play, he should of course cooperate and see what the other party was up to.
"Of course, please sit down." Richard motioned for the other party to sit down casually by the campfire, and threw him a roasted rabbit leg that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
The aroma of the barbecue immediately made the tired Muken's saliva flow faster, but he still sniffed it carefully, and after making sure there was no strange smell, he started to eat with relish.
The old man looked as if he had not eaten for three days when he was tearing the rabbit's legs. His originally cracked lips now became greasy.
In less than a minute, a two-pound rabbit leg was swallowed whole by the old man in front of him!
If Richard had not sensed the other party's whereabouts early, he would have been fooled by the other party's acting skills that surpassed the actor.
Unfortunately, Richard had already seen all the other party's little movements. At this moment, Richard felt like he was watching a talk show host's live performance in his previous life, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
However, although Richard appeared relaxed on the outside, he was actually tense on the inside. In fact, he did not let his guard down at all. The black jade ring in his hand and the extremely pure mental power in his mind were already ready, and could instantly release a dark element shield and a secondary mental shock.
These two great wizardries, one for defense and one for offense, can be said to be Richard's greatest confidence in doing this.
