Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 499 Assigning tasks
"Sir Uller, Roy is here to report."

In a house in the city, Roy met the senior wizard Uller who was guarding this place.

This is a necromancer from the Nickmansha Wuta. He is rather thin and exudes a slightly decayed and eerie aura.

Although the corpse-like smell has been restrained, it still radiates a slight amount of witchcraft energy, making the entire house look like a mausoleum.

This made Roy think of the eerie feeling he felt when he first stepped into this world.

Looking at the maids and servants serving in the house, most of them had deathly expressions on their faces.

This is the inevitable influence of living with wizards for a long time.

"First-level wizard...Roy?"

The figure of this handsome young man was reflected in Uller's cloudy eyes.

His voice was hoarse and low, sounding as if it came from a broken bellows.

"The Alliance has sent your information. Do you want to obtain the Tailin Witch Body here?"

"Indeed, I hope Your Excellency Uller will grant me this."

Roy said.

“As the governor of this place, I have the authority to control all resources and territories.

But, these things are not mine personally.

As long as you come with the alliance token and fulfill your obligations, you will receive the due reward."

Uller said to him.

Roy said: "I will do my best."

The wizards who came here before have already mastered an effective way to fight against its eroding rules.

Therefore, it is true that as long as you contribute to the alliance, you can safely obtain the "Tailing Witch Body".

However, what Roy wanted must be a wizard body above the peak level one.

It is used to help with promotion, so the quality must not be low.

This contribution must be big enough.

Afterwards, Uller briefly inquired about Roy's abilities and specialties. Upon learning that he was from Okmewta and was good at making Zabir magic gold in alchemy, he showed satisfaction in his eyes.

"Give me your 'Communication Seal' and 'Shop Seal' first. I'll share them with other wizards in this world, and you can communicate with them more."

Roy did as he was told and then prepared to leave.

But Uller stopped him.

“I suddenly remembered that there was a phenomenon in a nearby place called Black Sheep Village where some careless people attacked the locals and hunted the villagers.

I plan to send you to investigate and capture the heartless person.

By the way, it's also a good practice to learn how to deal with this kind of thing."

Roy was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "As you wish, Lord Uller."

After coming out of Uller's residence, Igor reminded him, "This is a test from His Excellency Uller.

Whether I will be entrusted with important tasks and given more important ones depends on this time."

"I see."

Roy nodded; he saw it too.

"By the way, can I hunt for the Tailin in the Heartless's body and transplant it myself?"

Roy suddenly remembered something and asked Igor.

"That won't work. The 'Taelin' in the Heartless's body is a mature individual who has awakened and cannot be controlled.

To obtain Tailin, one must use oneself as a vessel to capture him, and become a Heartless One...

It cannot be plundered or transferred.

The secret method of attracting Tailin and controlling it is in the hands of the wizards of the lineage of Lord Tailin.

Lord Uller holds the power to grant laws through the authorization of the Seven Towers Alliance.

He’s the only one who knows how to do it here.”

"I see."

Roy nodded upon hearing this.

This was equivalent to monopolizing the management rights of Tailin in this world. After the two of them left, a native mortal who looked like a butler came up to them and handed them a document.

"Lord Roy, this is the information about the Heartless attack in Black Sheep Village.

The Heartless in that place should be at the level of a high-level knight."

"Oh?"

Roy took the information and looked at it.

He did not believe all the information, but after reading it, he had a rough idea of the whole situation.

“Similar incidents are actually no different from wild beasts attacking human villages, so there’s no need to take them too seriously.

You just need to grasp one key point, that is, the source of Tailin's appearance..."

Igor pointed out.

Igor continued, "Taylin is a strange creature that is invisible and traceless, especially before it eats away at the heart. It is invisible and unpredictable.

I've been here for over 20 years, and I still don't understand where this thing came from, nor have I ever seen a wild Tailin.

"You've never seen a wild Tailin?"

Roy turned to look at the white-bearded senior with some surprise.

"To be precise, I haven't seen Tailin before he became parasitic. After he became parasitic, he became a mature form that resembled a shadow...

I have seen that before."

“So, by the time you actually see it, it’s already too late.

It's a mature form that eats away at the chest cavity and devours the heart."

Roy said.

Having said that, he didn't show any worry on his face.

Although guarding against "Talin" is a very difficult thing, at least for the natives.

but……

Wizards can cheat using witchcraft!

For example...

Remove your heart first!
This way, Tailin won't be able to find a target to attack, and won't erode...

He even suspected that Uller and the others also used a similar method to remove their heads to avoid having their wills destroyed by Tailin.

After things settle down, take them back.

Roy thought about this and asked indirectly.

Igor said: “This does seem to be an effective method.

I have guessed so too.

However, from what I've observed, some wizards have tried using mortals, but failed...

We have not been able to use this method to create a qualified, self-controlling heartless person, so this is not a true Tailin witch body.

After that, I gave up the idea of trying and just carried out my mission honestly. It was only more than ten years ago that I finally obtained the Tailin Witch Body..."

……

Not long after, Roy took Windsorbell and others on a magic carpet to the Black Sheep Village mentioned in the information.

It was a remote mountain village with dozens of families living there.

The one who transformed into the Heartless was an old man who lived alone on the edge of the forest and was called "Old Blind Man" by the locals.

No one knew what he had done, but he suddenly became an unintelligible being and began to attack villagers and passers-by.

The villagers set traps and reported to the city, and it took a lot of effort to temporarily hold off the attack.

But they were not strong enough to capture the old blind man, so he hid in the forest like a wild beast.

"Old blind man...

This should be it.”

Soon, Roy came to the edge of the forest and saw a wooden house that was exactly the same as the one described in the information. He landed, pushed open the door and walked in.
