The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 263 Talent is also a kind of wealth!
The coordinate system of the Shield of Morik had long been cracked by wizards. After arriving at the floating city, Richard spent some magic stones on the logistics wizard and got some information about it.

Following the instructions in the intelligence, Richard spent nearly a month before finding the corresponding place according to the coordinates in Logar's intelligence.

The main reason for this was that it took Richard nearly half a month to return to the floating city.

The corresponding position of the coordinates is a group of extinct volcanoes. This group of volcanoes used to be a mine for Salamanders, mainly producing various fire element metals and high-quality fire element gems.

But after the wizard entered this world, this mining area that had been mined for who knows how many years was finally mined out.

After discovering that there were no minerals, the area was quickly abandoned, but the complex tunnels left by years of mining provided a pretty good hiding place for the salamanders.

A large number of Salamanders fled into the mines to avoid being enslaved by the wizards.

Their strategy has been very correct during this period.

At this time, there are countless fire lizard slaves that can be captured in the Red Sun World. Wizards do not spend energy to drill mines and catch these fire lizards like catching mice.

But as the number of free fire lizards in the Red Sun World decreases, this group of fire lizards hiding in the mine will sooner or later enter the wizard's field of vision.

……

Richard flew slowly among the quiet extinct volcanoes. His mental power was always in an outward state during this process.

This was his third day in entering this group of extinct volcanoes. During these three days he was looking for something - a mark left by a salamander.

This group of extinct volcanoes is so huge that finding a salamander without any markings is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Suddenly, Richard opened his eyes and fell straight to the ground, raising a cloud of volcanic ash.

A breeze blew away the volcanic ash, and what appeared in front of Richard was a mine entrance.

Richard walked to the front of the mine and called for a breeze to blow away the thin layer of volcanic ash on the ground, revealing the dark gray rocks underneath.

The rock looked ordinary, but in Richard's dragon eyes, a golden shield symbol appeared on the rock.

"It's kind of interesting. I almost got away with it."

This symbol is made of special pigments that are completely invisible to human eyes and can only be seen clearly with dragon eyes. If it weren't for the faint energy radiation from this pigment, it would have been noticed by Richard, the man who was looking for someone. Other wizards would not have been able to find this hidden mark.

Entering the mine, the same signs continued to extend in the mine. But at the fork in the road, Richard stopped.

He bent down and swept the ground twice at the marked fork on the left. After sweeping away the dust, a familiar piece of metal appeared in front of Richard.

"It seems the Salamander is smarter this time."

Richard ignored the metal sheet and turned to the right fork. Soon, he came to another fork.

This time, Richard found a warning device on the unmarked side.

"This Salamander is very cautious."

Continuing walking along a passage without boundary devices, Richard soon came to another fork in the road.

This time, warning devices were placed at all the forks in the road.

This time, Richard frowned.

"What a cunning guy. Looks like I have to try them one by one."

Richard took out a piece of metal, made a shielding device to cover the metal sheet, and then began to search from left to right.

The leftmost fork in the road ended in a four-way road. On the road, Richard also found a lot of simple alchemical equipment, which were designed as traps. Once set off, they could blow up the entire mine.

Underground, this trap is also deadly to wizards.

Even a three-ring wizard will die if he is bewitched.

But for Richard, these devices were too simple.

Although it is a very pure thing for wizards to respect the past and despise the present, for Salamanders, the skills of the alchemy masters in ancient times are simply better than those of today's alchemy masters.

Richard has refined so many skills from ancient alchemy masters. Even if they are only incomplete skills, combining them together is enough for him to defeat the current alchemy masters among the fire lizards.

If the left fork is wrong, try the middle one.

There are only three forks in the road, and one of them is always true.

There were also traps in the middle fork, but these traps were more like a warning and were not very powerful. After walking for a distance, the traps disappeared, and were replaced by some traces of salamanders.

Richard bent down and picked up a scale from the ground.

This piece of scale had a dull luster and was obviously the scale of an old fire lizard, which met the requirements of the fire lizard he was looking for.

Walking along the mine tunnel, the temperature around Richard continued to rise. As he came to an underground cave, a lava lake appeared in front of him.

On the shore of the lava lake, several old fire lizards were gathered together, drinking wine in big gulps, as if they were having a party.

On the shore, Richard saw a lot of supplies. If he relied solely on the few old fire lizards in front of him, it would take him fifty years to finish eating all the supplies.

"It looks like we caught a big fish this time."

On the shore, several old salamanders had not yet noticed Richard's arrival. Or rather, they had not expected that a wizard would bypass the layers of security they had set up and come to them quietly.

They are all alchemy masters in the Morik Empire. Whose alchemy can surpass them?
"Karlion, you are raising a giant fire beast!" An old fire lizard pointed at Karlion's wine glass that could almost be a barrel and shouted.

"Fuck you, can't I just take it slow?"

The fire lizard called Kallion had a dazed look in his eyes and looked drunk.

Suddenly, he stood up and stumbled to the edge of the lava pool.

"Karlion, what are you doing? Don't fall in!"

"No!" Kallion waved his hand, "I'm just going to let you guys go, and when I come back... I'll drink all of you down!" Kallion took out little Kallion from under his leather skirt, but just as he was about to let him go, he suddenly saw out of the corner of his eye a dark shadow standing next to his buddies.

This black shadow looks quite like those dark wizards.

Dark wizard... wizard!
Kallion was startled, his body trembled, and his feet slipped and he was about to fall into the magma pool. But just as he was about to fall, someone caught him.

"It seems your friend is right to worry about you, Master Carrion."

Karion pointed at the figure that grabbed him, his fingers trembling.

He was not mistaken, this was a dark wizard!

A dark wizard came to them silently, and their alarm devices did not respond at all!

"Karion, how do you reply...Wizard!"

The old fire lizards then noticed that there was a black-robed wizard standing next to their old friend who had just gone to release water.

Where are their alarm systems? Why is there no response at all?

As everyone was shocked, Richard pulled Carrion from the edge of the lava lake.

"Everyone, don't be nervous, I'm different from other wizards.

and……"

A violent wave of magical power suddenly erupted from Richard's body.

When several old fire lizards noticed this, their bodies suddenly stiffened.

It's a second-ring wizard!
"And you better not do anything stupid, or I'm going to get a little wild."

Several old fire lizards looked at each other and saw shock and confusion in each other's eyes.

What is this wizard going to do?
Richard pulled Carrion to a few old salamanders, and then slowly spoke:

"Can you please introduce yourselves? From the information I received from the executive officer of Morik's Shield, there is only one Salamander here, Master Kallion."

When Carrion heard this, his expression changed instantly.

I didn't expect his information to be leaked like this.

The other fire lizards were regretting their decision so much that their intestines turned green with regret. Why did they choose today to have the gathering?

Wouldn't it be nice to play for two days?
"Ahem, I'm from nearby..."

An old salamander was about to speak, but Richard's voice made him swallow his prepared words.

"You'd better not lie to me, because I'm too lazy to tell which is a lie. I will treat the valuable Salamanders well, but if you are just a wealthy man nearby, or an ordinary friend of Master Kallion...

Don't blame me for throwing you into this lava pool."

Richard's words made the old fire lizards feel nervous. They were a little confused about what Richard's purpose was.

After a moment of silence, a fire lizard slowly spoke:

"I am Cliff, the Alchemist and Forge Master of the Morik Empire."

After hearing this introduction, Richard's eyes lit up. He didn't expect to have an unexpected gain.

"Very well, Master Cliff, please stand aside with Master Kallion."

Seeing Richard's attitude, the remaining two old fire lizards also spoke up.

"I'm Patlin, and I'm also a master alchemist."

"I am Talhe, just like them."

After listening to the introduction, Richard nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good. It seems that Master Carrion's friends are no ordinary people."

As he spoke, Richard took out four soul contracts from his pocket.

"I think you must be very curious about what I plan to do. Why don't I do the same as other wizards and kill you as soon as I see you, or capture you alive and make you slaves.

This contract is the answer.

I hope you will consider this contract carefully and ask me if you have any questions. "

Several old fire lizards took the contract, and the expressions on their faces changed from confusion, to shock, and then to bewilderment.

Kalion read the contract carefully, then took out a magnifying glass from the leather pocket at his waist and examined the contract inch by inch.

Finally, Carrion asked with a puzzled tone:
"You want to... hire us?"

Richard nodded: "Indeed."

"Why?" Cliff asked beside Carrion.

"Why would you hire us? Aren't your wizard's favorite salamanders slaves besides their corpses?"

Richard shrugged and said, "I am different from them. They think that you Salamanders are just a group of uncivilized natives, a bunch of aliens who are only fit to be slaves.

But they don't realize that salamanders also have brains and there are many talented people among them.

Talent is also a kind of wealth! "
