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

Chapter 236 The Meteor Council Reappears
Chapter 236

Lynn received two books: "The Body of a Martial Immortal" and "The Array of Martial Immortals".

But as he expected, neither of the two books was a complete set.

This is understandable, after all, it is the result of Hercules' life's work, which not only carries the knowledge and ideas of a sixth-level Morning Star Wizard, but also very likely contains the key theories for breaking through to the seventh level.

Such a collection, even if it is only a fragment, is enough to make countless wizards flock to it.

If the entire scroll were handed over to him so easily, Lynn himself would probably suspect that there were ulterior motives behind it.

The "Martial Immortal Body" he currently holds only includes the formal wizard stage, which is the first three volumes from first-level wizard to third-level grand wizard.

As for "The Martial Immortals' Formation", it is even rarer, with only a detailed appendix explaining the formation diagram, but the content is still profound and abstruse, and should not be underestimated.

Even so, Lynn was quite satisfied.

He is also a body-refining wizard, but he had only learned a part of the "Star-Forging Body" from Astrid before, and now he has just stepped into the threshold of a first-level body-refining wizard.

As for the "Martial Immortal Body," which is a self-created witchcraft of the Martial Immortal Seat, it goes without saying that its level is far above that of the "Star Forging Body," and it is no exaggeration to say that the difference is hundreds or thousands of times greater.

After a quick tidying up, Lynn summoned Clara, who had stayed behind in the outer area, and together they embarked on their journey home.

He didn't waste a single moment along the way.

Whenever he encountered a difficult problem, he would not hesitate to ask Green for help.

After all, the other party is a direct disciple of the Hercules Throne, and has obviously studied these two books in depth, making him the best candidate for guidance.

Green did not refuse. After all, this deal involved his teacher's future plans, and he was naturally willing to help Lynn master the core content more quickly.

In this way, Lynn gained a valuable experience comparable to a "Morning Star job change mentor".

Despite his talent for "hard work pays off," he will eventually achieve something even without guidance, as long as he spends enough time.

But if someone guides him, his growth rate will increase exponentially.

Moreover, there is a crucial step in this trip: renovation.

If one fails to properly transition from the "Star-Forging Body" to the "Martial Immortal Body," the transition may result in stagnation or, in severe cases, demonic possession and damage to one's foundation.

Lynn was well aware of this and naturally wouldn't let go of this hard-won opportunity to provide guidance.

Time passed quietly, and the three of them walked on their way back.

It's worth mentioning that with the Morning Star Wizard accompanying them, they didn't need to rely on complicated long-distance teleportation arrays, making their return journey much faster than expected.

....................................

Meanwhile, as Lynn and his group embarked on their journey back to the Temple of Life, the people summoned by Aquila finally prepared to take action.

The night was as dark as ink, the bright moon hung high, and the stars were scattered across the sky, twinkling and shining, densely packed, like a cascading Milky Way.

"Woo——"

Suddenly, a piercing wolf howl tore through the night sky, sounding particularly eerie and jarring in the deep, silent darkness.

The next instant, the night seemed to transform into a giant, silver-white wolf, stretching across the sky.

Its eyes were as cold as ice, and its mouth was wide open, exuding the power to devour the moon, which made people's hearts tremble.

boom!
The giant wolf, as white as snow and with glossy fur, suddenly exploded and, under the starlight, transformed into a gaunt middle-aged man.

He was tall and wore a black wizard's robe of normal size, which looked particularly large because of his thin frame.

His gaze was like a wolf's, yet a faint smile played on his lips, as if he were savoring the anticipation before a hunt.

The moment he appeared, five faint energy shields slowly emerged on his body.

Those were the symbols of five permanent sorcerous marks, representing his formidable strength as a fifth-level Morning Star Wizard.

He is another great figure on par with Aquila, Sirius of the Forgestone!
“Aquila asked me to help… His reputation isn’t great, but the price he offered is reasonable. If he pays enough, I’m willing to do his bidding.”

He narrowed his wolf-like eyes and chuckled to himself.

"However, I am not alone in this operation. I also need to cooperate with an enforcement wizard... but this person is slow and has made me wait for so long."

"However, he has finally left the Wizarding Council and come to join me..."

He stood under the bright moon, his hands clasped together, his head slightly tilted back, letting the moonlight fall on his body, like a lurking night wolf, quite enjoying the moonlight.

Time slipped by quietly, the night grew deeper, and the moonlight shone ever brighter.

Suddenly, Sirius's tightly closed eyes snapped open.

Not far from him, a silver-white teleportation array slowly appeared in mid-air.

The magic array was a thousand meters in size, radiating a brilliant silver light, covered with runes, and shimmering with mysterious and ancient power fluctuations.

Such a display is clearly no ordinary feat; its high level and long teleportation distance are self-evident.

In fact it is.

This is a high-level teleportation array from the Wizard Council, spanning countless domains and spaces, directly sending that law enforcement wizard here.

Rumble!
As the silvery-white light burst forth, the entire night sky seemed to be completely dyed white, and the brilliance of the stars was overshadowed by the intense radiance.

But Sirius's gaze never wavered, calmly fixed on the most dazzling core of the silver light.

As the fluctuations of the teleportation gradually subsided and the silver light slowly faded, a tall and majestic figure appeared in the center of the teleportation array.

The man was dressed in a magnificent shaman's robe, adorned with countless star trails. As the stars shifted, they intertwined to create an awe-inspiring and mysterious majesty.

On the back of his shaman's robe, a dazzling golden sun was surrounded by starlight, shining brightly as if a god had descended.

This golden sun symbolizes the supreme origin of the wizarding world!

The person draped in a robe adorned with stars and the golden sun is of self-evident identity; this is the very mark of an enforcement wizard!
If Lynn were here, he would immediately recognize this person as none other than the enforcer who had once traveled to the land of the Three Kingdoms to handle the "landscape" affairs: Old!
“Wizard Alder, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

Sirius looked at the wizard Alder. Although he was only a fourth-level Morning Star wizard, he was wearing a robe belonging to an enforcement wizard.

Even a level 5 Morning Star Wizard like him had to be wary of the meaning that the garment represented.

Therefore, although Sirius wasted some time, he would only say a few words to the late-arriving Ald.

"I apologize, Sirius, I was busy with other matters and was delayed for a while."

Old responded calmly, his voice much more composed.

Compared to his previous arrogant and conceited demeanor when he went to the [Landscape], he had become much more reserved. Clearly, the near-death experience of that trip to the [Landscape] had had a profound impact on him.

"Oh?"

Sirius raised an eyebrow, showing no annoyance whatsoever, and instead chuckled softly.

This was also his style of doing things: being kind to others and making money through harmony. "I've heard that the His Majesty, who lives in seclusion behind the Nightmare Rift, seems to be about to do something earth-shattering..."

He paused, a meaningful glint appearing in his smile:

"If it succeeds, the future landscape of the entire Wizarding Council will likely be completely changed. At that time, law enforcement wizards may no longer need to handle affairs in such a hands-on manner as they do now."

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the back of Ald's robes, where the golden sun rippled slightly in the night.

Upon hearing this, Ald pondered for a moment, gazing intently towards the Nightmare Rift, before slowly saying:

"That person's plan had already been circulating among many forces. Initially, there were many supporters, and it even became a craze for a time. Unfortunately... as it failed to produce results for a long time, the support from all sides gradually cooled down."

"The recent attack on the Goddess of the Magic Network by the Nightmare Rift was at her behest... but the result was not ideal. Worse still, it triggered an unexpected conflict, further deteriorating the relationship between our wizard civilization and the civilization of the gods."

"During this period, the law enforcement wizards have been running around like crazy, just to 'clean up' the mess left by the Nightmare Rift."

Upon hearing this, Sirius clicked his tongue lightly, chuckled, and shook his head, saying:
"I've heard that several Heralds of the Radiant Moon in the Wizarding Council have expressed their resentment towards that person, feeling that continuing to invest resources is merely clearing the way for that person, rather than truly benefiting the Wizarding Council. Now that something like this has happened, the obstacles that person faces if they want to advance further will likely only grow stronger."

When asked about the power struggles within the parliamentary hierarchy, Old simply shook his head and offered no response.

He then changed the subject and asked:

"These things are too far removed from us; they are ultimately a game between Your Majesties. In comparison, Your Majesty Sirius's bloodline accumulation is nearly complete, isn't it? I've heard that Your Majesty is now only one step away from the bloodline level of the 'Silver Moon Snow Wolf Emperor'."

Upon hearing this, Sirius laughed heartily and casually waved his hand:

"It won't be that fast... we still have a long way to go."

He did not respond much to the matter of bloodline, but simply brushed it off.

For a bloodline wizard like him, the extraordinary bloodline within him is both a source of power and an extremely difficult barrier to overcome.

To achieve further breakthroughs, the key lies in accumulating rare materials that can evolve one's bloodline.

There is still hope for him to reach the sixth-tier Silver Moon Snow Wolf King, but if he wants to reach the seventh-tier Radiant Moon level...

That would mean entering the ranks of true royalty, enough to be granted a title even within the Wizarding Council.

He knew in his heart that without a stroke of incredible luck, this step would likely be impossible for him to take in his entire life.

The two wizards chatted idly as they quietly embarked on their journey towards the Emerald Isle Forest.

....................................

On the edge of the Black Wizard's territory, in the Kingdom of Eluria, deep within the Temple of Life.

The figure of the Spirit-Eyed Wizard stood silently in Lynn's wizard tower.

Lynn left this here on purpose.

Firstly, it adds depth to the Temple of Life. In case of unforeseen circumstances, the Spirit-Eyed Wizard can step in to stabilize the situation.

Secondly, it was the "teleportation anchor" set up for Lynn.

If Lynn's main body encounters an insurmountable crisis thousands of miles away, he can use the power of the scales to remotely activate the location of the Spirit Eye Wizard and return instantly.

Thirdly, it was for the deal with Hercules.

Lynn intended to use the appearance of the Spirit Eye Wizard to once again attract the attention of the Morning Star Wizards, Hercules and Grimm.

The plan was meticulous and the layout ingenious.

But what Lynn didn't expect was that some hidden changes were quietly brewing...

Inside the wizard's tower, the pale pupils of the Spirit-Eyed Wizard were devoid of any emotion, as still as stagnant water.

With a flash of light, his will was taken over by Lynn.

At this moment, although Lynn was thousands of miles away, he was remotely controlling the Spirit Eye Wizard's body with the help of the "Balance".

In the instant their consciousnesses intersected, Lynn quickly scanned all of the Spirit-Eyed Wizard's recent memories.

Then, controlling the Spirit-Eyed Wizard's body, he slowly let out a deep sigh:

"...The Meteor Council. Who would have thought that this name, buried in the shadows, would resurface..."

The Meteor Council, as its name suggests, is a force composed of wizards who have destroyed stars.

To destroy a star, there must first be a star, meaning that every official member of the Meteor Council is a Morning Star Wizard who emerged after a star shatters.

The Spirit-Eyed Wizard is one of them.

After the fall of the star, the Spirit Eye Wizard immediately sought help from the Meteor Council, at the cost of joining this underground organization, which was regarded as heretical by the mainstream wizarding world.

The Meteor Council has a terrible reputation.

Whether it's official forces like the Wizarding Council or various regional powers, almost all of them are hostile to it, openly suppressing and secretly excluding it, regarding it as a potential source of instability.

Fortunately, since the Spirit Eye Wizard joined, he has not been forced to participate in any missions.

Having only received help once, this secret identity has not yet caused any real trouble.

However, just recently, a message suddenly came from the Meteor Council, requesting the Spirit Eye Wizard to provide some kind of "assistance".

The fact that this organization has managed to survive under the heavy pressure of the Wizarding Council is certainly not just due to luck.

They possess a special method that allows them to accurately pinpoint the status of each official member, and even determine whether they are still alive.

Although the Spirit-Eyed Wizard had long been enslaved by the "Scales," he was still alive from a physiological perspective.

He possesses independent memories and will, just like Astrid in the past.

The difference is that Astrid was freed from her restraints and gained some freedom after Lynn became strong enough.

As for the Spirit Eye Wizard... in the foreseeable future, Lynn will only continue to strengthen the balance of power over him, and will not allow it to loosen in the slightest.

Ultimately, the timing of the Meteor Council's appearance was both too coincidental and too troublesome.

Lynn frowned slightly, feeling a headache coming on.

The situation is complicated now, and he has finally reached a tacit understanding with Hercules deep within the Furnace Stone, obtaining his protection.

In this way, even if Aquila discovers that he has entered the [Landscape], it is impossible for her to take action against him despite the protection of Hercules, a level six Morning Star wizard.

Therefore, Lynn finally ushered in a period of peaceful development, where he could cultivate steadily and explore his own path as a Morning Star Wizard.

Unfortunately, not long ago, the Meteor Council approached him.

No, to be precise, they approached the Spirit-Eyed Wizard, asking him to fulfill his promise and provide assistance...
