Chapter 105 Wizard Camp
"Fifty kilometers ahead, five people..."

At this point, Jemin suddenly stopped, looking strange.

"What's wrong?" Amy asked nervously.

Jemin stroked his chin and thought for a moment: "Wait a minute..."

He focused his mind on the space within his body, activated alchemy, and temporarily modified the core module of a Glimmering Eye.

The original "vibration wave search" was changed to "analytic method".

By attaching it to the reconnaissance system of other Glimmers, Jemin fired an energy blast that sent the Glimmer blasting towards the direction in which the team had been detected.

With the help of analytical techniques to detect energy fluctuations, Jeming's expression quickly softened:

"It's a fluctuation from the resonance of witchcraft."

So-called magical resonance is a natural disturbance of external elemental energy generated by meditation and magical models.

"It's a wizard!" Victor's spirits lifted.

Amy perked up as well.

The contract that Jemin and his classmates signed when they enrolled was quite effective. At least in the absence of excessive hatred, most of the wizards under the command of Norn Workshop that they encountered on the dimensional battlefield were trustworthy.

The other side seemed to have also noticed the fluctuations in the analytical spell released by Jemin, and began to cautiously move in the direction where Jemin and the others were.

However, they did not go far before they encountered the enemy.

Sensing the intense energy fluctuations emanating from the "tactical map," Jemin did not immediately step forward.

He checked the information from the Eye of Light again, and after confirming that the other party's magical fluctuations were the workshop's standard pattern and there were no abnormalities, he guided the two to approach cautiously.

"stop."

As they drew nearer, Jemin signaled for the two to take cover.

In the distance, a small team of five wizards is engaged in a fierce battle with a swarm of giant spiders.

Their magical light clashed with the spider's venom, and the battle raged fiercely.

Jemin and his group did not intervene rashly, not only as a precaution, but also to show their sincerity and demonstrate that they had no ill intentions.

After they finished fighting, Jemin appeared with Amy and Victor.

“We are apprentices from Norren 13 Academy, here seeking assistance,” Jemin stated his identity directly.

The leader of the wizard squad, a seemingly unremarkable level two wizard, gave them a wary look.

However, they had seen what Jemin had done before, and besides, the energy fluctuations of the analytical technique couldn't be faked, so there wasn't much of a conflict.

Having confirmed that the analytical spell did indeed originate from the person before them, the leader of the wizard squad nodded: "So you're apprentices undergoing the assessment. To arrive so quickly, it seems your skills are quite impressive. Follow us; the camp is just ahead."

Led by the wizard squad, the three quickly arrived at their destination.

Suddenly, a vast, cleared plain appeared before them, and a wizard camp constructed of metal stood prominently.

However, it didn't resemble the war-torn, heavily guarded fortress that Jemin had imagined. Instead, the camp looked more like a newly established, but somewhat empty, miniature version of Norren Academy.

At the center are several tall rune towers, surrounded by numerous houses and training grounds, and even an area that looks like a public canteen.

Although these houses did not have as many decorative patterns as the college buildings due to the limited time, they still appeared quite peaceful.

"This is our wizard headquarters?" Amy asked, somewhat surprised.

“Yes, apprentice. This is our temporary frontline command post,” the wizard in charge explained. “Most of the wizard squads are out on missions, leaving only logistics and a few garrison personnel here.”

The wizard team didn't explain the situation in detail, but he didn't seem worried about the natives suddenly launching an attack.

But Jemin and the others understood.

Although the interior appeared somewhat empty, Jemin could sense the terrifying power hidden within the camp from the details.

The area around the camp was filled with elemental fluctuations so intense they were almost tangible, a concentrated manifestation of countless rune circuits and energy nodes.

Once fully unleashed, this small academy will instantly transform into a terrifying war machine, capable of tearing apart any invading enemy.

At the outermost edge of the camp, war golems of all shapes and sizes were densely packed together, ranging from scout golems taller than a person to siege golems tens of meters tall.

Various summoned creatures, from abyssal hounds to elemental giants, were also scattered around the camp.

With the high-ranking wizards stationed inside and the camp itself, even if the gods of this world suddenly had a brain fart and launched a full-scale war, it could hold out for a long time.

After leading them here, the wizard left immediately, seemingly indicating that bringing the apprentices they encountered to the camp was also part of the mission.

The three followed the guiding golem in the camp to a rune tower in the center of the camp, which was the hub for identity registration and mission issuance.

"Please enter your identity information, apprentices," a wizard in charge of registration said without looking up.

The three of them placed their apprentice badges into the corresponding rune slots, and a stream of information instantly flooded into their minds.

"Welcome to the Erosian frontline camp, apprentice." A cold voice echoed in their minds, and at the same time, their access list was clearly displayed before them.

"You can use the camp's teleportation array to forcibly break through the dimensional barrier and leave. However, this will mean that you will automatically forfeit this assessment and will be directly teleported back to the Noren Workshop headquarters."

"You can use the facilities in the camp for supplies, and you can also buy and sell the various raw materials, special items, and even new knowledge you have researched in the plane with the workshop."

"However, you cannot access the wizard war mission system of this plane."

The last rule surprised both Amy and Victor.

"Why?" Victor couldn't help but ask.

The wizard in charge of registration finally raised his head and explained expressionlessly, "It's very simple. The purpose of you coming to this plane is to undergo assessment. As for the missions on the mission system, they are all issued by us official wizards based on the intelligence and information collected on the front lines."

"This intelligence is a resource in itself. If we provide this information directly to you, what's the point of this assessment? You need to learn to investigate, judge, and contribute on your own."

"The workshop is selecting elites who can survive alone in unknown environments and create value, not soldiers who can only follow orders. Do you understand?"

The three of them, including Jemin, exchanged glances and nodded helplessly.
