Violet Continent, Southern Continent, Sea City.
Milton Cheney stepped onto the streets in the city, with the Black Raven following behind him.
He recalls the last time he was here was to leave the Violet Continent as fast as possible.
Almost two years have passed, and everything has changed when Cheney returned.
Sea City remains the same, yet he is no longer a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice but a bona fide Level 1 Wizard.
He used to have to sail across the continent on the giant ships of the Wave Trading Company.
This time, he could traverse the Sea of the Violet Continent and the Corner Sea Continent area directly with his physical body, even bringing along the Black
Raven.
And all this happened within a mere span of less than two years.
Walking through the city, there were a lot of people in Sea City.
Sea City had never been crowded in the past.
Most of these people were Wizard Apprentices.
Most were Level 1 and Level 2 Wizard Apprentices, and Cheney also spotted several Level 3 Wizard Apprentices.
Conversations would occasionally reach Cheney’s ears.
They were discussing treasures of Level 3 Wizards.
Cheney had underestimated the impact of the Level 3 Wizard’s treasures on the Violet Continent.
Sea City was just a small city on the edge of the Violet Continent, and yet so many people here were discussing about the treasures of Level 3 Wizards.
Cheney could imagine it would be even more so in the entire Violet Continent.
The White Tower had spread news that Cheney possessed a Level 3 Wizard’s treasure, causing many to covet it.
Who wouldn’t want to soar to great heights? To these Wizard Apprentices, obtaining a Level 3 Wizard’s treasures was akin to an instant ascension.
Cheney also heard mention of the White Rose School in the discussions.
As expected, his background with the White Rose School had been found out by the people from the White Tower.
Nevertheless, it was unsurprising since Cheney had revealed himself at a shop managed by the White Rose School. As long as the people from the White Tower were not foolish and investigated along this clue, it was normal that they found out that he came from the White Rose School.
Of course, they would not attack the White Rose School just because Cheney came from there. After all, the White Rose School possessed two Level 1
Wizards anyhow.
“Let’s go.”
Cheney spoke, and the Black Raven behind him nodded.
Without lingering in Sea City, Cheney remembered why he had come to the Violet Continent this time.
The outskirts area of Collins City, within Collins Mine.
Cheney stood on an empty field surrounded by scattered mine caves. Only the Black Raven was beside him.
This was the abandoned Southern Mining Area of the Collins Mine.
The Southern Mining Area had long been fully exploited by the Nature Church and was left in a devastated state, leaving only abandoned mine caves behind in large areas.
Cheney stared at the scene before him, his eyes devoid of emotional fluctuations.
This was the place where he was inexplicably transported to the Violet Continent.
Years have passed and it has now become an abandoned mine area.
Very few places in the Collins Mine were still under mining operation. The majority of the mine caves were abandoned after being fully exploited.
“Wait for me outside.’
Cheney said softly and then stepped into one of the abandoned mine caves.
This was the cave he woke up in years ago, and its condition was almost the same as it was back then.
Cheney walked further in, discovering that the place where he had buried the body had been dug up and the body was gone.
It should come as no surprise that the body was discovered.
The person who was in charge of the Southern Mining Area was a Level 2 Wizard Apprentice back then, so it was not unusual that they found the body here.
Cheney stopped in front of an ordinary stone wall.
He waved his hand gently, dispersing the dust around.
This place remained just as it was before, completely ordinary. It was as though Cheney was randomly transported to the Subcontinent.
“First Ring Magic?Eye of Truth”
Spiritual Power surged from Cheney’s Spiritual Sea, forming an eye in front of him.
Cheney closed his eyes, allowing the Eye of Truth to rotate, observing the surrounding environment meticulously.
He attempted to find any anomalies within the normalcy.
A moment later, Cheney opened his eyes and shook his head lightly.
It seemed like he was overthinking. This place was just an ordinary abandoned mine cave.
Although he had been here in his Text Simulation before, it was still somewhat disappointing when he found nothing unusual upon checking this place in reality.
It seemed that he was indeed randomly transported here back then.
Having been in the Wizard Continent for many years now, Cheney transformed from a Level 1 Wizard Apprentice to a Level 1 Wizard.
His knowledge has grown tremendously compared to before.
Therefore, Cheney now understood some things that he didn’t back then.
That is, the Sacred Altar he encountered on the Subcontinent back then was definitely not a Magic Array-like teleportation array.
Teleportation arrays are extremely rare in the Wizard Realm. There is no teleportation array on the four continents of the Corner Sea region.
Moreover, a teleportation array is a connection between two Magic Arrays and cannot randomly teleport him to anywhere.
The Magic Stone consumption for one teleportation by the array is also high. Cheney had only used up twelve Magic Stones back then.
But all these were secondary.
The most important point was the teleportation array could not have manipulated someone’s spirit, making him unconsciously use the Magic Stones.
Cheney still felt somewhat shocked when recalling it now.
It felt like an invisible giant hand was behind him, pushing him to the Wizard Continent.
Of course, even at this moment, Milton Cheney was not sure about the facts.
He shook his head slightly to clear the mess of thoughts in his mind. He took a long look at the mine cave, then turned and strode out of the abandoned mine.
“Society Master!”
Seeing Milton emerge, the Black Raven respectfully uttered.
He didn’t know why the Society Master would come to this abandoned mining area, let alone enter an abandoned mine cave.
But he didn’t ask. What the Society Master wanted him to know, he would eventually learn.
What he didn’t want him to know, he wouldn’t be interested in.
“Let’s go.”
Milton took one last look at the mine, then uttered softly.
After this departure, he might never come back to this place.
There was still a month before the school war between the White Rose School and the Nature Sect.
During this time, Milton did not return directly to the White Rose School because it was not yet time to return.
Milton planned to aid the White Rose School from behind the scenes.
The reason he came back was to see Morton.
After all, Milton is not familiar with the other people in the White Rose School.
To openly help the White Rose School could indeed do good and make a name for him, but it could also attract unnecessary trouble.
What Milton dreaded the most was hassle, especially in reality.
The people of the White Tower have been keeping an eye on the White Rose School. If Milton were to make a name for himself, it would inevitably make the White Tower associate the Level 3 Wizard’s relic incident with him.
After all, the sudden departure of the leader of a wizard organization from the Corner Sea Continent to help an unfamiliar wizard organization, no matter how one looks at it, was unusual.
At this time, above the Tri-Origin Wilderness on the Southern Continent of the Violet Continent.
Milton was strolling in the wilderness.
The Eye of Truth floated above Milton’s head, sweeping leisurely around the environment.
“It’s not here.”
Milton muttered to himself, disappeared on the spot then moved again.
It has to be said that this First Ring Magic.Minor Teleportation Technique is really handy.
No wonder it’s a First Ring Magic spell that has been recorded for the longest time in the Black Forest Cabin. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
The next moment, the disappeared Milton reappeared at another location in the wilderness.
The Eye of Truth still hovered above his head, scanning the surrounding environment.
“It’s not here either.”
Milton’s face did not change, and he disappeared on the spot again.
The real him in the true body simulation had only heard that a relic was discovered here, but where was the relic? Milton didn’t know.
However, since his text simulation counterpart could find the relic, there was no reason why his counterpart in reality couldn’t find it.
Time passed and the three suns hanging in the sky slowly set.
Milton, who had set foot all over the Tri-Origin Wilderness, still hadn’t made any discoveries.
His spiritual power surged, and Milton once again increased the search range of the Eye of Truth.
“Found it!”
Milton opened his eyes, a flash of light in them.
The moment when the Eye of Truth’s detection was blocked was exceedingly brief, but Milton felt it.
Normally, the detection of the Eye of Truth should not possibly be blocked.
If the Eye of Truth was blocked, there could only be two reasons; one was that it detected a wizard much stronger than Milton, and the other that it detected something above a Level 1 Wizard’s level.
And the relic in Milton’s memory naturally belonged to the latter.
First Ring Magic?Minor Teleportation Technique.
Milton disappeared on the spot and reappeared in a place that seemed to hold no special features.
Like the surrounding area, it was a wilderness full of weeds.
But Milton knew that the so-called relic was right under his feet.
The Dark Star Magic Wand appeared in Milton’s hand, and a massive amount of spiritual power surged out from Milton’s spiritual sea.
First Ring Magic?Earthquake!
Milton slammed the Dark Star Magic Wand heavily onto the ground of the wilderness.
“Boom!”
A loud noise spread out from Milton like ripples.
The birds were startled into flying up, making a rustling sound.
Milton’s body hovered slightly, underneath his feet was the ground that had cracked open.
Milton’s spiritual power followed this crack and spread inward until his spiritual power touched something, and then a bigger commotion happened.
“Boom!”
Like a rolling mole, there was a thunderous sound beneath Milton’s feet.
It was as if something under his feet was about to burrow out.
“This commotion is too big. It’s going to attract quite a few people.”
Milton muttered to himself, moving his body aside.
After all the commotion had subsided, Milton sent a surge of spiritual power from his spiritual sea to touch the relic and then entered it.
It didn’t matter if people were attracted. Probably by the time they arrived, Milton would have already gone.
Wanting to snatch the relic from Milton was naturally impossible. Not to mention eating the meat, they probably won’t even get to drink the
soup..
