Not long after Donato was teleported into the Norman Secret Realm, he happened to meet more than a dozen wizard apprentices, who were hiding in a hidden cave in panic.

If he had not been teleported to a nearby location and sensed a faint energy fluctuation and noticed that there was an illusionary witch formation nearby, he might not have discovered this group of people!

Donato was proficient in low-level wizard formations and he quickly made contact with the wizard apprentice inside.

When Donato, with the ultimate strength of a wizard apprentice, appeared in front of a group of wizard apprentices, it seemed that the many wizard apprentices present had found their backbone in an instant!

Among the wizard apprentices, there happened to be several second- and third-level wizard apprentices from the Ring of North. These people either knew Donato or at least had heard of Donato's fame.

So, after these people's introduction, the rest of the people looked at Donato with bright eyes.

Especially when Donato informed everyone that the three major colleges had sent elite rescue teams into the Norman Secret Realm, the morale of the people who were originally depressed instantly rose.

It was like a drowning man finding a life-saving straw! It was no wonder that before Donato showed up, their number was several times greater than it is now. Under the leadership of several other apprentices who were extremely powerful, they were full of confidence in launching a counterattack against the material supply point at the beginning.

But the result was disappointing. Not only did they fail, but they were defeated and killed.

A series of defeats!

The strongest apprentices were also killed by the masters of the Demon Spider Knights, and these ordinary wizard apprentices also suffered heavy casualties and fled in all directions.

Currently, almost all of the twelve people are injured and their morale is low, otherwise they would not have hidden in a cave, relying on a temporary small illusion magic formation to survive.

After chatting with these wizard apprentices for a while, Donato had a general understanding of the situation in the Norman Secret Realm.

And he knew that the key to rescuing the wizard apprentices trapped in the secret realm was to open up a passage to the exit.

This was also the purpose of the previous battles. There were masters among the trapped apprentices. They knew clearly that in order to escape, they had to break through the blockade of the night elves, but they couldn't win!

The most troublesome thing about opening up this channel at the moment is that it is said that there is a spider woman with unfathomable strength stationed in the supply point!

When Donato heard several wizard apprentices say the words "Senior Spider Woman", he frowned slightly.

Although Donato is arrogant, he is not an idiot. He is not arrogant enough to think that he can defeat a high-level spider woman on his own.

Especially when he heard that Gyorgy also died at the hands of the other party, his brows furrowed! Although Gyorgy's strength was slightly inferior to his, he was also a master at the apprentice limit level, only slightly lower than him.

Therefore, he knew that the only one who had the strength to fight against the enemy in the secret realm was the werewolf clone of his father Gildarts.

It seems that in order to complete the rescue mission, it is necessary to have a battle with this senior spider woman.

In order to defeat or even kill the opponent, he must first reunite with his father and inform him of the relevant situation.

So Donato led the twelve people and followed the guidance of the orb. But something strange happened. After walking for a distance, Donato found that as he walked, the light of the orb became brighter and brighter, and then became dimmer and dimmer.

This means that the teammate holding the orb is moving away from him, which... This is obviously inconsistent with the original plan!

Suddenly, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Could it be that the orb in his hand was a fake?

After all, it was still unknown whether the [Mistmantle Orb] had any effect in the Norman Secret Realm.

They only conducted a simple test before setting off, so it is very possible that the test was no longer accurate after being interfered with for unknown reasons in the secret realm.

If that were the case, it would be troublesome! Thinking of this, Donato gave up the original plan to meet up with his father as soon as possible.

Instead, under the guidance of several wizard apprentices from the Ring of Noth, Donato led this group of wizard apprentices to search for other survivors nearby, because several people told him that there were many small teams of wizard apprentices who had been dispersed nearby.

Donato estimated that with his strength and the addition of more than a dozen wizard apprentices, he would be safe as long as he didn't encounter the Demon Spider Knights with more than five people.

If he could gather more people, he would be able to fight even if he encountered a group of Demon Spider Knights with more than ten people.

Therefore, he now plans to gather another group of surviving wizard apprentices nearby before going to find his father, which will make the journey safer.

After all, the purpose of their rescue mission is to rescue as many apprentices from the three major academies as possible.

And because he has not yet reunited with his teammates, he would be safer and more beneficial to the next plan if he searches for and gathers some apprentices first.

Of course, in addition to this, there is another small reason. When Donato casually took action along the way and solved a few ignorant monsters, many wizard apprentices became more enthusiastic about him.

There were several pretty female apprentices in particular who had been living in a state of anxiety for the past few days. Now they saw the seniors sent by the three major academies to support them, who were handsome and powerful. They immediately looked at Donato with eyes full of admiration.

I'm afraid that Donato can just snap his fingers and choose anyone he wants to satisfy his primitive desire.

This greatly satisfied Donato's vanity! ——When he walked out of the cave, Richard glanced at the energy point value on the inspiration panel and couldn't help but smile bitterly. There were only more than 30,000 energy points left. He didn't know how much he could improve his meditation method if he used it.

The new meditation method will obviously be a "big money eater". This conclusion can be drawn by referring to Rodrigo's Meditation Method (Apprentice Edition). At that time, meditation was the method that consumed the most energy points among all zero-level witchcraft.

However, the reason why Richard did not choose to immediately improve his control over the new meditation method was not because of insufficient energy points.

But he cannot choose to improve now. Once he improves his mutation meditation method a little, he may break through to the formal wizard level at any time.

I will be excluded by the rules of the Norman Secret Realm and kicked out of the secret realm forcefully but slowly!

This was inconsistent with his original intention of coming to the Norman Secret Realm.

After all, his primary purpose of coming to the secret realm was to rescue his senior sister Meiluo and his two few friends.

Now, he hasn't found anyone yet, and he can't just upgrade himself to a formal wizard and leave.

So far he has not encountered any enemies beyond his ability to deal with, so Richard is not in a hurry to break through now.

At this moment, Richard took Stephana and continued to rush in the direction where Senior Meiluo was detected before.

However, along the way, pictures appeared in Richard's mind from time to time, in which there was an extremely huge and hateful body.

However, the shape of this abomination is a little different from that of ordinary abominations. Its belly seems to be even bigger, and there is a long vertical slit in the middle of its belly.

It seems that this abomination with a rather strange appearance has some connection with his new meditation method.

Pictures pop up in my mind from time to time.

Some of the pictures showed that the abomination roared towards the sky, and suddenly, the vertical cracks on its fat belly suddenly cracked open, and then dozens of creatures in spirit state quickly emerged from it, like thousands of troops, sweeping in all directions.

There are even some very rare cases where the leaders are actually evil spirits!

You should know that vengeful spirits are extremely difficult to deal with. Physical attacks are ineffective, and witchcraft attacks also require more targeted witchcraft to kill them quickly. From the perspective of combat effectiveness, a vengeful spirit is at least equivalent to a second-level wizard apprentice, and a stronger one may be equivalent to a third-level wizard apprentice.

The evil spirits are even more terrible!

However, the following pictures are about how to transform the abomination in order to obtain this rather strange-looking undead summoned creature called the Wraith Abomination.

This made Richard stop and stand there in thought.

Seeing the master suddenly stop, Stephanie couldn't help but ask curiously: "Master, did you find something?"

Richard shook his head and said, "No, I just have a little insight. I'll be fine after a while."

After a moment, Richard basically understood how to create this vengeful abomination.

The first thing is to have a ready-made abomination, or a huge body that meets the requirements, and Richard has already met this requirement.

With the Mutated Summoning Staff, Richard now has a ready-made abomination on hand.

The second issue to be solved is the collection of spirits, which is more troublesome. It is necessary to set up a witch formation to collect resentful spirits. This witch formation is not difficult for Richard to understand, and it is not difficult to set it up. The difficult part is that one needs to kill the enemies in the witch formation in order to collect and transform them.

Moreover, the stronger the enemies killed, the stronger the vengeful spirits collected and transformed will be.

This made Richard frown. After all, it was quite difficult to kill the enemy within the range of this particular wizard formation. And if he wanted good results, he certainly couldn't kill ordinary night elves. He had to at least kill the Demon Spider Knight.

In this case, where to set up the entire ghost gathering witch formation and how to lure the enemy are all things that need to be considered! An hour later, Richard and Stephanie came to a waterfall. Looking at the waterfall that was more than a hundred meters deep in front of them, Richard looked at it in confusion. Should he jump down and continue to move in this direction after swimming?

"Master, please take a look over here." Stephanie called to Richard, seeming to have discovered something.

Richard quickly came to Stephanie's side and looked along her slender fingers. He saw several footprints clearly visible, one of which was obviously smaller, and should be a woman's footprint.

This made Richard quickly think that this might be the footprints of his senior sister Meiluo.

But the footprints on the side that were obviously larger than those of ordinary humans instantly gave Richard a bad feeling!

Could it be... Suddenly, a slender figure appeared out of nowhere in the dense forest not far from the two of them.

The subtle energy fluctuation immediately attracted the attention of Richard and Stephanie, and Richard was stunned when he saw the other person's figure.

Long dark green hair, isn't this Ophelia?

This... I wanted to find Meiluo, but I didn't expect to find Ophelia first.

Obviously, Ophelia did not notice Richard and the other man hiding nearby. After looking around, she prepared to walk east.

"Ophelia!"

Ophelia was stunned and turned back quickly. The next second, her face was full of surprise: "Richard, why are you really here?"

"I'm looking for you and Andrea, and someone who is more important to me."

Richard certainly couldn't say that he came to see Meiluo and see if he could help you two.

Ophelia chuckled and said, "The more important person? Is she called Melo Norris?"

"How did you know that?" Richard looked stunned, as if he had just told a lie and was caught on the spot.

Logically speaking, in my impression, Ophelia has a rather cold personality and never cares about gossip or anything like that. How did she know that I was here to see Meiluo?

"Wait a minute, I'll show you a trick!" Ophelia teased.

Seeing her suddenly disappear again, Richard knew that there was obviously a small illusion magic array or concealing magic array set up in advance.

The next second, Ophelia came out holding a figure that Richard was very familiar with.

"Richard!" The moment Meiluo saw Richard, she was overwhelmed with emotions and could no longer control herself and quickly ran towards Richard.

Meiluo rushed into Richard's arms and hugged him tightly.

"I knew you would come, but I didn't expect you to come so soon!"

Looking at Meiluo hugging him tightly with excitement, Richard was stunned and patted her lightly on the back.

After a long while, Meiluo remembered that there were other people around her, and she let go of Richard with an embarrassed look on her face.

However, the next moment, she saw the graceful, mature and beautiful Stephanie, and her heart was immediately alarmed. She asked nervously: "Richard, who is this? Won't you introduce her?"

"Um, this is Stephanie, she's mine." Richard didn't know how to explain the relationship between Stephanie and him.

"Hello, I am the master's follower, Stephana Knight." Stephana took the initiative with a smile.

This immediately made Meiluo's face change, and she said, "Richard, you are really charming. You found such an excellent follower so quickly."

However, Ophelia on the side seemed to be thinking about something. She seemed to have heard of the name Stephanie somewhere. Richard smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that Meiluo had misunderstood the relationship between him and Stephanie, and said, "Meiluo, you misunderstood."

After Richard briefly explained the cause and effect of the incident to Meiluo, Meiluo realized that she might have really misunderstood the relationship between Richard and Stephanie. Moreover, Meiluo was actually very sympathetic to Stephanie's experience.

Hold the other person's hand, apologize and comfort.

This surprised Stephana. She thought her master's girlfriend would be a powerful woman, but she didn't expect her to be a pretty girl.

No wonder it's so lovable!

If I were a man, I would probably also like this kind of little woman who only has eyes for me.

"Are you guys planning to just keep chatting outside? Why don't you come in and sit down and chat?" After watching for a long time, Ophelia finally couldn't help it and teased a few people.
