The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 305: Unlucky Curse
"Oh?" Richard's face lit up, but then he looked thoughtful and said, "Such a good thing has not been circulated. I guess there must be some drawbacks."

Leikart said calmly: "There are definitely disadvantages. The refining technology of this crystal is very complicated, and the pure Uris black crystal has a strong debilitating radiation.

Even the body of a three-ring wizard would decay if in contact with this crystal for a long time.

In fact, the energy source was merely a byproduct of the research.

The purpose of this research is to transform this mineral into a lethal weapon.”

"Did he succeed?" Richard asked curiously.

"It succeeded, but it also failed." Leikart said calmly, "While he was conducting research, the Uris Black Crystal finally exploded as he had imagined.

But the huge amount of decay radiation produced after the explosion instantly broke through his protective measures and destroyed most of the laboratory equipment, including his.

My teacher took great pains to remove the debilitating radiation from this material."

Richard sighed, this is the path of pursuing truth, you never know which will come first, an accident or tomorrow.

"Okay, the price for this knowledge is enough. But before I let you go back, Master, we have to sign a soul contract."

Richard pulled out a blank soul contract from his pocket and wrote some terms on it.

These terms include that Leichhardt must not attack wizards from the Black Tower Wizarding Academy again in this school war, must not disclose any information about Richard, must not retaliate against Richard after the war, etc.

After signing this contract, Leikart basically said goodbye to this college war.

Leikart looked at the contract with a distorted expression. As a three-ring wizard, when had he ever felt so aggrieved?

But this is the best result.

Who made him so unlucky to meet Richard?
If he had met any other wizard sent from the Black Tower Academy, his fate would not have been so miserable.

Richard pulled out the magic-sealing nails on his body. Leikart snorted coldly, and a terrifying wave of magic power instantly spread from his body.

Several fire lizards suddenly became nervous and their fingers immediately pressed the switch of the chainsaw sword.

If Leikart made any unusual movement, the witch hunting team would cut him into pieces without hesitation.

Richard is now the hope of the Salamander clan. Once Richard dies, all his property will be inherited by the heirs he designated.

If Richard did not designate an heir, the property would be inherited by his students, teachers, fellow students, and friends.

These people are not as kind as Richard. In the wizarding world where slavery is prevalent, the Salamanders are bound to be destroyed.

Leikart glanced at the witch hunting team that were eyeing him covetously, snorted coldly, condensed an arm with magic power, and signed his name on the contract.

As the contract turned into flames and disappeared into the air, Richard waved to the witch hunting team.

"The contract is complete. If you are interested, Master, you may have some barbecue."

Richard pointed to a huge barbecue grill not far away. The wild boar on the grill was roasted to a golden shine, and a rich aroma filled the air.

"No, I still have research to do."

Leikart replied somewhat stiffly, then transformed into a flaming giant and flew towards Meteorite Academy.

Looking at Leichhardt leaving, Richard shook his head and said to himself:
"A guy with no luck."

……

The roasted wild boar meat was very tough. If an ordinary person tried to eat it, they would probably not be able to tear off a piece of meat even if their teeth were torn off. But for a second-ring wizard like Richard, this only made the meat taste better.

The mountain-sized wild boar shrunk by nearly half after being roasted, but after being eaten by several big eaters in the witch hunting team, as well as Richard and Khayon, most of the huge wild boar was still left.

Richard preserved the leftover barbecue using the alchemical field, ready to eat later.

After eating and drinking, Richard and Khayon started chatting.

Richard was very curious about this unlucky yet notorious second-ring wizard.

It was rare for a person to be as unlucky as Khayon, and his ability to make others unlucky was even more rare.

"Master Kayang, is your bad luck innate, or did you encounter something later in life that caused it?"

Khayon, who was using magic to pick his teeth, heard Richard's question and his face suddenly fell:
"Ah, Master Richard, do you think a normal person could be as unlucky as me and survive past infancy?"

Richard said thoughtfully, "That means you encountered something later in life that caused you to become like this. Can you tell me about it?"

Khayon nodded, his tone bitter and helpless.

"Well, it's nothing. Before I was chosen as a wizard apprentice, a mudslide occurred on the hill in my family's fiefdom, revealing a cave that had been sealed for a long time.

That cave was a wizard's laboratory in ancient times.

Most of the things in this laboratory have turned into waste as time goes by.

But I still found a magic circle that was still working.

I was young and frivolous at the time, and I had no respect for wizards. After I put a magic stone into the magic circle, an illusory creature appeared in the magic circle.

This creature looks like a human, but it has four arms, six eyes, and a large gray bag on its back.
As soon as he appeared, he spoke to me in a language I had never heard before, but I could understand its meaning. The meaning was, "Kujin, how dare you summon me?"

Then he opened the pocket on its back for me.

I saw a black gas flying out of the pocket, and as soon as it appeared, it penetrated into my body.

Then the illusory creature disappeared.

Since then, I have started to have bad luck.

First, my father was executed by the king for participating in a rebellion. Then, when I escaped, I was unexpectedly chosen to be an apprentice to a dark wizard, and my best friend was also chosen to be an apprentice.

During the entrance exam, the synthesizer went out of control and he was blown to death. I was almost blown to death by the synthesizer.

In short, everything goes wrong for me, and only after I encounter a disaster do I have a moment to breathe.

Alas, why was I so careless in the first place and activated that magic circle! "

It seemed that Khayon had not communicated with the wizard for a long time, and once he started talking, he couldn't stop.

As he spoke, his regret almost overflowed from his words.

His momentary impulse not only caused suffering to himself, but also implicated his family and friends.

This is what he can't tolerate the most.

Richard expressed deep sympathy for Khayon's experience, and then quietly moved away from Khayon.

He memorized the characteristics of the imaginary creature and planned to ask Ulises later if he had ever seen one. If possible, Richard would not mind helping Khayon solve this bad luck curse.

Since Khayon has been able to survive until now despite such bad luck, he must have quite impressive strength.

If he could get rid of his bad luck, Khayon might not soar to the top, but he would definitely not be lost in the crowd.

This kind of person is worth his investment.

Who knows, he might become a great wizard in the future.

After talking for a while, Kayang's mental state was obviously much better.

Years of bad luck not only made Khayon's psychological endurance extremely strong, but also brought him terrible psychological pressure.

He had no one to vent this pressure, and it was like a volcano in his heart.

When the pressure exceeds his psychological endurance, the volcano will erupt.

By then, Khayon's mind will collapse and he may even become a mad wizard.

It would undoubtedly be a good thing for him to release some pressure.

"Master Khayang, it's not easy for you." Richard sighed, "I've made a note of the imaginary creature you mentioned. If I learn anything about it in the future, I'll let you know."

Upon hearing this, Khayon looked towards Richard suddenly, tears even flashing in his eyes.

Are there such things as good people among dark wizards?

Richard felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, and took two steps back and said:
“It’s just a piece of cake. I think Master Khayang, you have great potential.

Even with such bad luck, he could still become a second-ring wizard. If he had no bad luck, his future would be limitless."

Khayon respectfully performed a wizard salute to Richard:

"Master, it is a great blessing that you are willing to help me. If you can help me get rid of this curse, I will serve you wholeheartedly in the future."

It's a good thing that Richard has something in mind for him. Khayon doesn't believe there is a free lunch in this world.

After the conversation, Khayon did not stay with Richard for long. After leaving his contact information, he left in a hurry.

Although the bad luck curse on him has entered a period of calm, no one knows when it will strike again.

After Khayon left, Richard immediately chose to move.

Although Leichhardt would not reveal Richard's information, his whereabouts were no secret.

Richard's hiding place is no longer suitable for hiding.

Richard put the contents of the cabin, as well as the barbecue grill and stove, into his magic pocket, and then burned the entire cabin to the ground, leaving no trace.

Looking at the puzzled witch hunting team, Richard waved his hand:
"We can't stay here anymore. Bring in the barbecue and some meat legs, and let's move!"

……

Leikart's humiliating defeat has become the biggest topic among the three-ring wizards of Meteorite Academy in the past two days.

He went out to hunt down the second-ring wizard, but not only did he get nothing, he was also defeated.

Not only did his hands and feet get cut off, but he was also forced to sign a soul contract, and he could only play a sideline in the entire academy war.

This is not just a shame for Leikart alone, it is also a shame for the Meteoric Wizarding Academy.

……

In the office, Zeke sat behind his desk, holding a cup of magic tea in his hand.

Opposite him, Leichhardt sat in a chair, his face gloomy and silent.

Qi Ke took a sip of tea and said calmly, "It's been three days, you should tell me what you can say.

You said that the other side didn't break any rules, but how could you, a third-ring wizard, be beaten so badly by a second-ring wizard?

Could it be that the black wizard on the opposite side has also learned the military formation of the white wizard?"

Leichhardt remained silent.

Seeing this, Zeke put the teacup on the table.

"Then let me ask it another way. Is it true that you didn't break the rules? Is there anything false about it?"

“…There is no falsehood.”

Zeke nodded: “Then I will just pretend that the opponent did not send out a three-ring wizard.

It is not reasonable for a third-ring wizard to be beaten like this by a second-ring wizard. So I infer that this person must have used external forces, most likely alien slaves or elemental slaves, and they are third-level creatures.

And, I also inferred that he had more than one.

It would be too embarrassing for a three-ring wizard to be unable to defeat a third-level alien slave or elemental slave.

There is more than one third-level slave, and their master is a second-level wizard, and it is in accordance with the rules... Then it is obvious who this person is. "

Zeke leaned forward, his eyes calm but filled with authority that denied any objection.

“You met Richard, the president of the Richard Jorode Chamber of Commerce. He is the only second-ring wizard in the Black Tower Academy who has the financial resources.

And his teacher is the vice president of Black Tower Academy, so he has enough reasons to help his teacher win this war."

Leichhardt remained silent, but this silence was enough.

Leichhardt signed a contract not to reveal any information about Richard, but sometimes silence is also a kind of information.

If it had not been for Richard, Leichhardt would have certainly rejected the name.

But Leichhardt chose to remain silent.

This means Zeke guessed right.

Zeke let out a small smile and sat up again.

"Okay, Leikart, go back and rest.

The college will clear your shame."
