The Wizard: From Zero-Ring Wizard to Almighty Lord.

Chapter 230 Clara Davis
Chapter 230
On the top floor of Liuyun Tower, a spacious plaza stands prominently.

The area is covered with a dense array of teleportation arrays, which are scattered across the ground like stars in a well-organized manner.

Above each teleportation array floats a unique marker, clearly indicating the city and region it leads to.

The teleportation array located in the direction of "Five Star City" is particularly large, with silver-white runes and a continuous flow of light, like silent, pulsating tides.

On one side of the formation, wizards from Liuyun Tower were maintaining and calibrating the nodes to ensure the stability of the array and the correct energy supply.

With a burst of dazzling silver light, dozens of figures appeared within the teleportation array, some strong, some weak, some alone, some in groups, all having crossed from a distant land.

Lynn was one of them. Beside him was the nature wizard who had not yet awakened.

Around the square, a group of people were already eagerly waiting.

These people are collectively referred to as "guides." Some are officially assigned by Liuyun Tower to provide guidance, but most are local cultivators who want to make a living from this.

They were either busy chasing commissions or connecting resources, each with their own agenda.

However, Lynn was naturally not going to entrust his fate to these small fry.

He wasn't short of money, nor did he seek cheap deals; he directly approached a neatly dressed Liuyunlou staff member wearing an official badge.

Just like in Five Star City, Lynn spoke concisely and decisively without any hesitation:

"Two tickets for the furthest teleportation point. And while you're at it, book me a top-class place to stay."

The staff quickly made the necessary arrangements after a brief registration.

The process is extremely efficient, with almost no unnecessary delays.

However, unlike his high-profile appearance last time, Lynn was unusually low-key this time.

After booking the teleportation tickets, he quickly left with the nature wizard and headed straight for his pre-booked accommodation.

As the saying goes, "A poor home makes for a rich road," Lynn would never allow herself to live in poverty when traveling.

He stayed in one of the top-tier residences offered by Liuyun Tower.

The spacious and bright residence is equipped with various functional areas such as an energy pool, laboratory, and meditation room. The environment is tranquil and beautiful, comparable to a five-star private residence.

However, Lynn had no interest in studying or cultivating at this moment.

He led the nature wizard straight into the living room.

Back in Five Star City, he had successfully broken the witchcraft control on the other party's slave collar, but he hadn't had time to remove it yet.

Now that I'm in a stable place, I finally have the opportunity to deal with this matter.

The living room is dimly lit.

Lynn stood in front of the sofa, raised her hand and gently lifted the other person's hood, revealing the face that had been hidden all along.

It was a human woman.

She had long hair with a hint of red, delicate eyebrows and eyes that were light blue, like a lake that had not yet melted in late spring.

In terms of appearance, she was neither stunning nor alluring; she could only be described as pretty and pleasing to the eye.

To Lynn, who was used to seeing stunning beauties, she was merely an ordinary-looking woman.

He stared at her silently for a few seconds, then his gaze fell on the slave collar around her neck.

The runes on the collar had faded and lost their binding power.

He reached out and snatched it off; as the metal fell away, it was as if the last shackle on her body was being removed as well.

Lynn gently placed the slave collar aside, his movements calm and his expression unwavering.

As the silver metal landed with a crisp sound, the nature wizard's body trembled slightly. She stood still, but deep within her eyes, beams of light suddenly appeared, as if her consciousness was gradually awakening.

Subtle changes began to appear on her face.

When she was bound by a slave collar, her expression was like that of a doll, empty and emotionless.

At this moment, as her mind gradually returned, surprise, confusion, fear, and even a belated anger and shame began to appear on her face.

These emotions intertwined on her delicate face, progressing layer by layer, rising and falling like the tide, lasting for more than ten minutes.

Lynn sat on the sofa, her gaze indifferent, saying nothing, as if watching a silent performance.

Finally, the chaotic emotional turmoil gradually subsided.

The nature wizard's body trembled slightly, and his pale blue eyes finally regained their clarity.

She slowly lowered her head, her gaze falling on Lynn sitting on the sofa. There was no hostility in her eyes, but neither was there any flattery or fear; only a hint of complexity and doubt.

She did nothing but silently watch him.

Of course she remembered Lynn.

Even though her consciousness was sealed while she was a slave, her memories still remained.

The scene of Lynn easily killing two powerful wizards with her black dragon that night still haunts her.

What made her even more wary was that she vaguely remembered that the other party had summoned some kind of nature-type plant during the battle, carrying a pure and powerful natural aura.

In other words, this young man is very likely also a nature wizard.

She was about to speak, but her voice had only uttered one syllable:
"you……"

Before she could finish speaking, Lynn raised her hand to interrupt her.

He clasped his hands together, leaned back slightly, and spoke in a calm yet undeniable tone:

"Good, you haven't panicked. It seems you understand your situation."

He paused slightly, then slowly said:

“I bought you in Five Star City, and now… you belong to me.”

“I have some questions for you. I hope you will cooperate. Otherwise…” He raised his eyes slightly, his tone suddenly turning serious, “I don’t mind searching your soul directly.”

The nature wizard's heart tightened slightly, but she did not show any panic.

“Your name, your origins, and how you became a slave… Now, you can tell me.”

After a few moments of silence, the woman finally spoke, her voice clear and cold, carrying a hint of helplessness and a subtle sense of pride:
“My name is Clara Davis, and I come from the eastern part of the wizarding world…”

Lynn's expression remained calm until she uttered the surname "Davis," at which point his pupils suddenly contracted slightly.

Davis.

He knew that name all too well. His teacher, whose full name was Rosalind Davis, came from that family.

If the nature wizard in front of him wasn't lying, it's highly likely that... he and his mentor share the same bloodline.

Lynn remained silent, simply memorizing the information.

Clara, oblivious to his odd behavior, continued calmly:
“I originally lived in the eastern part of the country, but my family suffered a dramatic change and fell apart.”

"I had no choice but to flee, traveling south in an attempt to escape my pursuers. Unfortunately... near Five Star City, I fell into the hands of a wizard, and being destitute, I became a slave."

Her tone was calm, without any resentment or intense emotion, as if these hardships were merely fleeting moments.

Lynn tapped her fingertips lightly on the armrest, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

Clara Davis... a nature wizard... the Davis family...

Various clues intertwined in Lynn's mind, and he was almost certain that the nature wizard named Clara in front of him was likely a pleasant surprise.

The only thing that he regrets is that his teacher, Rosalind, is still sealed within the Spirit of the Azure Sky and cannot come forward to confirm her identity.

Otherwise, a simple comparison would easily reveal Clara's origins and the truthfulness of her claims.

Now, Lynn can't possibly believe everything he hears from Clara.

Her story may not be entirely false, but it is mostly mixed with concealment and embellishment.

For example, if she is indeed a descendant of the Davis family, why would she flee all the way to the southern part of the wizarding world after the family's downfall?
The eastern region is vast, with countless places to hide, so it is not impossible to avoid disaster.

Especially given her current cultivation level as a first-level wizard, her traversing such a vast territory is highly suspicious.

Let alone traversing the entire wizarding world, even migration between countries within the same domain is a difficult and perilous journey.

Thinking of this, Lynn's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he spoke calmly:

"look into my eyes."

Clara instinctively looked up, and the moment she met Lynn's gaze, she felt an invisible pressure sweep over her like a landslide or a tsunami.

The next moment, Lynn suddenly unleashed a soul pressure that only a level three archmage possessed. Her immense spiritual power, like a thunderclap, instantly enveloped her entire consciousness space.

Clara's body trembled slightly, her face changed drastically, and she briefly fell into a daze.

Just then, she clearly saw Lynn get up from the sofa, walk slowly over, raise her right hand, and point her slender index finger steadily at her forehead.

In her pale blue eyes, the finger suddenly changed; its skin seemed to turn into tree bark, and plant fibers appeared between its knuckles, gently yet precisely reaching towards her forehead.

These plant tendrils, as if alive, danced lightly, about to pierce through her brow and enter her spiritual realm!

This scene made Clara's heart sink; she finally confirmed Lynn's identity.

He is not only a nature wizard, but also a master of advanced natural magic!
She knew perfectly well what Lynn was performing at that moment; it was one of the core techniques of nature wizards, and could even be considered one of the essential secret arts of nature magic:

"To live and die together."

This is an extremely special kind of witchcraft. The practitioner needs to merge themselves with a supernatural plant, so that the plant possesses the dual attributes of both a soul and a physical body.

This allows it to penetrate the spiritual barrier of living beings and enter the depths of their consciousness.

Unlike ordinary soul-searching techniques, which are brutal and easily damage the soul, "living and dying together" uses the power of nature as a medium, which can greatly reduce the resistance and rejection of the person being searched, and even complete the exploration of the soul's memories silently.

What's most frightening is that this method can bypass even deliberately hidden, sealed, or contract-protected parts of memory, allowing for a thorough analysis of other areas!

Clara's breathing suddenly quickened, her chest heaved violently, and for the first time, genuine fear appeared in her eyes.

Right in the center of her forehead, a mark that shimmered with a faint glow suddenly appeared, as if it had been activated as a defensive instinct.

It was a plant with a slightly luminous body and a slender shape, a fluorescent grass, the extraordinary plant she had contracted.

With the appearance of this fluorescent grass, although she was still suppressed by Lynn's overwhelming mental pressure and unable to move her limbs, she was finally able to speak with difficulty.

"I know you're a nature wizard!" she said rapidly, almost shouting.

"But I am a nature wizard from the East, the source of the Way of Nature! Even if you are stronger than me, you cannot forcibly invade my spiritual realm with extraordinary plants!"

"If you try to force me, my mental domain will self-destruct and collapse. Not only will you be unable to access any memories, but you will also suffer the consequences!"

Before he finished speaking, Lynn raised an eyebrow slightly and his gaze narrowed.

These words are not unfounded.

As the core area where nature wizards are concentrated, the eastern region has an extremely well-developed defense system in the spiritual realm, and naturally has many ways to counter memory probing techniques such as "sharing life and death".

Just as places where fire-type wizards gather develop numerous methods to counter fire, the mental defense techniques of eastern nature wizards have long since reached an extremely high level.

However, despite Clara's confident assertions, Lynn's hands did not stop moving.

His expression was calm as his fingertips transformed into plant fibers, and he continued to slowly probe towards Clara's brow, attempting to forcefully penetrate the fluorescent grass's defenses and enter her mental realm.

Clara's fluorescent grass, on the other hand, was like a lone boat being swept by a storm, swaying violently, with tiny cracks already appearing on its surface, as if it would shatter at any moment!
At the same time, Clara's face showed pain, her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and her lips trembled slightly.

But Lynn's expression remained unchanged as the plant fibers pierced through the fluorescent grass markings one by one, advancing inch by inch.

Finally, just as he was about to probe Clara's spiritual core, a dangerous premonition suddenly appeared.

Lynn sensed that deep within her consciousness, layers upon layers of deeply hidden forbidden techniques were rapidly activating, and the fluctuations of her soul suddenly became unstable!

In the realm of the mind, there is even a self-destruct mechanism!
Lynn's eyes flashed, and his expression immediately turned serious.

Without a doubt, Clara was not lying. Her mental world was already on the verge of collapse. If she went any further, her entire soul realm would likely explode and collapse.

Not only would she die instantly from the annihilation of her soul, but Lynn herself would also suffer a severe mental backlash.

Without hesitation, he decisively withdrew his hand!

The plant fiber that had penetrated deep into the mark suddenly retracted, then dispersed into specks of spiritual energy resembling wood chips.

The moment the pressure was gone, Clara seemed to collapse, her pain still lingering, but her breathing finally returned to normal.

She opened her eyes, which were filled with fear and confusion.

Lynn frowned slightly, his expression showing a hint of regret. Clara's mental domain was like a great treasure to him.

Although Lynn is a nature wizard who has reached the level of a third-level archmage, his knowledge of nature wizards is not very extensive, especially his memories of the eastern region.

If Clara's memories could be completely erased, then it would obviously allow him to fill in that gap.

As it turns out, the opponent's extraordinary plants and spiritual realms are actually countered by the methods of nature wizards, which is somewhat troublesome.

The fact that Five Star City couldn't extract any information from her before might be related to the restrictions on her mental domain...
