Soon after he left.
The void suddenly split to both sides, like a sharp dagger cutting through the space.
Look closely.
There were densely packed runes on the edge of the crack, supporting a void passage for people on the other side to travel back and forth.
Two figures walked out of the passage one after the other and looked towards the dense forest below.
“It’s right here.”
A female wizard with flowing white hair spoke slowly, "The aura only stayed for a short time, and then disappeared. The person should still be nearby."
"Yeah." Vulkan nodded, raised one hand slightly, and a creature similar to a wriggling silkworm emerged.
"The mark of the Green family is very special. Even gods have to pay a certain price to erase it. I am very curious about how a person could hide for so many years without being discovered."
"Hmm..." The witch turned her head and looked:
"Is this why you're working so hard to find someone? I thought it was because of the Green family's request."
"Both." Vulkan's expression remained unchanged.
"For thousands of years, no core bloodline of a top wizard family has ever been killed in the Enchanted Forest. If something like this happened, I would not be able to bear the wrath of the Grimm family."
"But I'm more curious, how did Connie do it?"
Even for him, it would not be easy to kill the uncle and nephew of Barn, but Connie did it and escaped for so long.
But it doesn't matter...
The female wizard in front of him was a third-ring wizard with the ability to control space. As long as she found the person, she would definitely catch him.
After catching him, they used the six-ring tower to torture Connie out of the poison.
The silkworm squirmed and slowly stopped moving.
Vulkan's expression also darkened.
“No more!”
The empty silkworm in his hand is a product of the star realm, and has the ability to lock onto auras, and even a third-level being cannot escape it.
But, now there is no trace of 'Connie'.
“That’s normal.”
The female wizard said calmly, "If they could be found, they wouldn't have revealed their tracks until now."
"yes."
Vulkan showed regret: "Let's go back, um..."
"What's wrong?"
"There's something going on at the tower."
Vulkan's eyes moved slightly, and then he shook his head gently:
"It's just a small matter."
"A forgotten marginalized person wants to return to his hometown and comes to me to apply. This kind of thing... let him do it."
* * * In order to wait for news, Carl found an empty place near the tower and lived there.
The neighbors nearby are all disciples of the tower.
The wizard apprentices were inevitably very curious about this marginal person, and they felt regretful after asking around.
He originally had a bright future, but because of a small matter he was targeted and had no choice but to go back.
Eastern Kingdom Continent!
Wizard restricted area.
Going there means that one can no longer move forward on the path of becoming a wizard.
Moreover, that is the territory of the gods, and even wizards cannot practice witchcraft openly.
This day.
Two wizard apprentices, a man and a woman, came to visit.
"Senior Carl."
"My name is Bernie, and this is my wife Louise." The handsome man named Bernie extended his hand and introduced:
“We come from the same place.”
"oh!"
Carl's eyes lit up:
"My fellow countryman!"
"Come in and sit down."
"yes."
The two entered respectfully, and Bernie mentioned a piece of good news:
"I heard from my instructor that Senior Vulcan has agreed to your request and will send you back soon once the star gate opens. I guess my instructor will notify you soon."
"Your mentor?"
Bernie said: "Daniel is my mentor."
"Amazing!" Carl exclaimed in admiration, "Daniel rarely accepts disciples. It seems that you have a good talent as a wizard. You have a promising future."
"Talent is just talent. The future is uncertain." Bernie was not complacent and shook his head.
"I have heard about the deeds of the seniors. Although their talent is not very high, they are the only two people in their time who have advanced to become formal wizards."
"I hope that one day my husband and I can become official wizards."
"I will." Karl nodded. "This is our first meeting, so I don't have anything good to offer you. This pair of jade pendants is something I got a few years ago. I'll give it to you as a gift."
He took out a set of inherited magic weapons from his body, and when the two men refused one after another, he forced them into their hands.
"You're welcome. We all come from the same place."
Karl said, "Come to think of it, I haven't been back for many years. I wonder what the situation is like in the Eastern Kingdom Continent?"
"Still fighting?"
"The war is still going on." Louise said, "Senior, are you from the Kingdom of Gondor?"
"Yes." Carl nodded and smiled:
"After all, I am still a baron."
"What a coincidence." Louise's eyes lit up:
"I also inherited my father's title, but since I came into contact with witchcraft, I have lost interest in this area."
"When we arrived, most of the territory of the Kingdom of Gondor had been occupied by Cologne."
"Cologne's artillery is becoming more and more powerful..."
Louise was just a younger member of the family who received little attention, but she was able to obtain the title of baron. It can be imagined how high her family's status was among mortals.
Even if she was not interested, she understood the war situation much better than her husband Bernie and expressed it more clearly.
Carl nodded repeatedly.
He followed Aya's guidance and decided to leave the Magic Forest, and naturally he wanted to understand the situation there.
"Anyway..."
Louise sighed, "Although there are occasional reports of victory, judging from the battle line, the Kingdom of Cologne is still in the upper hand."
"But you also know that the war on earth is just a game of the gods. The real battle is above."
She pointed upward.
"I heard that..."
"I just heard that angels and guardians have appeared on the battlefield, and they are not first- or second-level ones."
A third-level guardian knight also appeared on the battlefield? Carl raised his eyes slightly.
If this is the case, I'm afraid the gods are also angry. Could it have turned into a direct confrontation among the gods?
After seeing off Bernie and Louise, Carl hesitated at the door for a long time before heading towards the wizard tower.
…………
“Carl.”
Daniel, who was packing up materials, looked back and said with a smile, "I was just about to inform you that Senior Vulcan has agreed to your request, but you need to provide the magic crystals needed to activate the star gate yourself."
"Thank you!" Carl expressed his gratitude: "Wizard Daniel, I will probably never come back this time. Can you buy some wizard materials and knowledge here?"
"This..." Daniel hesitated.
"No matter what, I am still a disciple of the Six Rings Tower." Carl said with a solemn expression:
"I don't need high-level witchcraft, I just need complete wizard knowledge. The tower doesn't restrict this kind of thing."
"Wizard Daniel."
"The Eastern Kingdom is known as the Wizard's Desert. There are too many wizard apprentices who want to see complete knowledge. Through the things I brought back, they can also imagine the prosperity of the Kalim Continent."
"Okay." Daniel sighed:
"As long as it's something without restrictions, I can promise to give it to you, but you need to pay for it."
"Of course." Carl smiled. "I have made some magic stones for others over the years, but I won't need them when I go back."
He has no shortage of top-notch inheritance now, but his foundation as a wizard is not solid.
The basic knowledge of the Six-Ring Tower was compiled by several Five-Ring wizards, which was of great benefit to him.
Only by laying a solid foundation can we go further.
Next.
Carl returns to the other world every once in a while, and comes back after charging the Linglong Pearl in the other world.
Because it didn't last long, it didn't attract any attention.
This day.
Bernie comes and informs that the star gate will open tomorrow.
