Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 518 The Mysterious Space Explorer

Just like the 'shadow' mentioned several times by those 'lips'.

The entire world presents a dim yet not dark brightness.

Like dusk on a cloudy day, the field of vision isn't much better than the surface world, but you can still tell which way to go, and there's no annoying fog.

Yaro tentatively cast a light spell.

Under the light, a thin mist quickly appeared around them, through which clear 'paths' of light could be seen, much like the Tyndall effect caused by bright sunlight.

As the blurry scene in the distance gradually faded, Yaro's perception of Heri became clearer, and he quickly dispelled the light spell.

—If we really return to the 'surface world,' who knows if we'll be able to enter the 'inner world' so smoothly next time.

"It looks like we'll have to travel in the dark."

After determining Heri's location, Yaro gripped his heavy sword tightly and ran quickly.

The metal boots clicked against the bluestone floor, making a crisp sound that echoed quickly through the wide corridor.

Strange figures kept flashing by in the distance, but when he got closer, everything was calm and peaceful.

After walking for a long time and turning several forks in the road, some scattered monsters launched an attack, which was then successfully converted into experience points, causing no trouble at all.

The process went smoothly, but Yaro felt a little regretful.

"What a pity. If I could encounter another wave of monsters of that level, I could level up immediately."

That was indeed dangerous. If I hadn't been lucky enough to kill one of them and analyze their weaknesses from the experience points, I might have really perished among those monsters.

But so what?
Combat experience points. If you don't fight, where will you get experience points?
If you can choke to death while eating, does that mean you should just stop eating altogether?

Moreover, judging from the experience points, those monsters weren't very strong. Their experience points were similar to those of the evil spirits in the Blood Forest, only their attack methods were more bizarre and their numbers were greater.

The danger was so great because we had fallen right into the middle of the monster horde.

Now, even if we encounter a similar group of monsters again, we can start from the outside and defeat them one by one, or if it is too dangerous, we can simply give up.

"If I were to encounter that kind of monster horde again, with proper preparation, I could easily unleash a powerful attack from the outside and wipe them all out in just a few seconds!"

The only annoying thing about those monsters is that they can interrupt spellcasting at a high frequency, creating a kind of magic-suppressing effect.

With proper preparation, they are much easier to deal with than the Spider Women from before.

Therefore, when Yaro was searching for the road to Heli, he also took the opportunity to inspect the left and right forks in the road.

This is done to discern the directions of the forks in the road and find a more suitable path in this maze-like corridor.

On the other hand, there is also the possibility of searching for other monster gathering points.

We drove around like this for about half an hour.

At a corner, Yaro suddenly saw a faint light.

He paused, turned back, and retreated into the alleyway, peering out from the side.

—About a hundred meters away, there was a small point of light floating.

Upon closer inspection... it turned out to be a human head emitting a soft white light.

Surprisingly, it actually has a kind of sacred feel to it, just like the holy light of gods and Buddhas in movies and TV shows from my past life.

Yaro's first thought was whether it was related to Heli.

After all, they all have heads.

Um... there seems to be something wrong with this sentence?

Well, Yaro was too lazy to investigate further. He decided to just treat it as an ordinary monster, since all the creatures in the Otherworld looked strange and unusual anyway.

"Is that head like some deep-sea fish, using its bioluminescent properties to lure prey?" "Wouldn't there be many monsters around it?"

"Even without other monsters, such a special monster is definitely worth a lot of experience points."

Thinking of this, Yaro focused his mind and cast the Escape Armor, and a thin layer of algae quickly grew on the surface of his entire body armor.

In a short time, the color of this algae layer gradually deepened, and soon it was almost indistinguishable from the surrounding environment.

He tiptoed forward, carrying his heavy sword, moving stealthily with the steps of a cat.

But at that moment, the floating head turned to look at them, adjusted its right monocle, and said with a mocking tone:

"What did I find? A young apprentice playing hide-and-seek?"

After saying that, the man's head shook, and the shadow beneath him swayed accordingly.

Yaro then realized that it wasn't that it didn't have a body, but rather that it was wearing a dark gray tailcoat, just like Yaro's current situation. This dark clothing blended into the surrounding environment, so it couldn't be seen from a distance.

"Young apprentice, where are your parents?"

It... no, it's him!
He looked at Yaro with a friendly smile and asked curiously.

Yaro held his breath, his mind racing, "Is he trying to trick me?"

He slowly stepped back a little, while the man... the gentleman, followed Yaro's movements, his eyes shifting slightly, muttering to himself with a hint of unease:
"Can't you understand the language I'm speaking?"

language?

Wait, he's speaking Finn's Common Tongue!
At the same time, Yarrow also confirmed that the gentleman had indeed discovered him.

After a moment's thought, Yaro stopped, gripped his heavy sword tightly, and became alert. At the same time, he replied in a deep voice in Finn's language: "No, I can understand... Who are you?"

“You can call me… Explorer, an explorer from another dimension.”

"I travel through the gaps in the void of other dimensions, exploring different, mysterious and wonderful other dimensions."

"Of course, if it's a space that already has an owner, I won't forcibly invade it."

He chuckled softly, “After all, I am an explorer, not a bandit.”

Yaro raised an eyebrow.

"An explorer from another dimension?"

"Yes, you've heard of it?"

“No.” Yaro shook his head.

Although he had never heard of it, Yaro had seen the gap between different dimensions before... when he jumped through space and forced his way into his mentor Alice's independent dimension.

It was a void, quite similar to outer space.

Putting aside the powerful monsters that may exist, the harsh environment alone is a severe test.

Someone who can travel between different dimensions... cannot be weak.

"You are... a certified wizard?"

Yaro asked tentatively.

The explorer chuckled and said, "A formal wizard? Well, although I haven't heard that title in a long time, it's not wrong to say that."

"Just like when I asked about the adults in your family, it could be your parents, your grandparents, or even your extended family members."

"But it makes no difference to you, little wizard."
