Wizard: I Have a World of the Dead

Lin Qi was taken aback.

Thorne said, "Is it strange? That old man spreads weird ideas all day long. The aristocratic circle has long disliked him, but they can't do anything to him because of his status."

"But this time he went too far, going up to Archduke Edmund and demanding that many positions, including the Hand of the Duke, be handed over to the library for allocation."

"If Viscount Cecil doesn't confine him to his quarters, I'm afraid the entire family will suffer the consequences."

Oh my god...

That old man is really daring!

Simon chimed in, "I don't know what's going on in his head. He's always talking about doing something for the world, about bringing change to the world, and stuff like that."

Thorne scoffed, "Change? What does the world need him to change? Does it even need him to change anything?"

"Isn't the world already pretty good? The king rules the nobles, the nobles govern their territories, and as long as the farmers are hardworking and work diligently in the fields, they won't go hungry. What more needs to be changed?"

"Isn't this world good enough? Does it need him to change it? It's ridiculous!"

Simon agreed, saying, "That's right. Karls also demanded that the qualifications for practicing the Knight Breathing Technique be made public so that commoners could also practice it and knights could be selected from outstanding commoners."

"While I also hope there will be more outstanding knights to challenge, if everyone goes to learn the knight's breathing technique, who will do the work?"

Lin Qi listened without saying a word.

Simon was a nobleman, and although Thorne was not a nobleman, his father was also an administrative official in Ougo Harbor.

Furthermore, both of them had been studying at the Meris Library since they were 10 years old, and their understanding of this society was limited to the privileged class.

It's not that they have any ill intentions, it's just that they have a narrow understanding.

"Let's talk about something else."

There wasn't much to discuss on this topic, so Lin Qi prepared to change the subject.

However, at that moment, the ship suddenly shook violently, and the piece of meat that Simon had just put in his mouth flew out.

It looked like a huge wave had crashed onto the ship.

"Huh! What's that?"

"Rain cloud? Is it a rain cloud? It's huge, and it's heading this way. Is a storm coming?"

"Look, there seems to be something under those rain clouds!"

The apprentices suddenly gathered by the window, and Lin Qi also turned his head to look in that direction.

In the distance, on the sea, a thick, dark cloud, at least tens of thousands of meters high, appeared, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

Beneath those dark clouds, the seawater boiled as if it were being scalded.

Upon closer inspection, it is clearly...

fish!

Countless schools of fish gathered on the sea surface below the dark clouds, in large groups, densely packed, with so many of them that it was impossible to count them all.

It is approaching the wizard ship at an extremely fast speed.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Giant waves, several meters high, surged up on the sea, crashing against the wizard's ship one after another, causing the ship to rock violently.

The tables, chairs, and benches tilted and swayed with the rocking of the ship, and plates, cutlery, and food flew off the tables and landed on the ground with a series of clattering sounds.

The apprentices panicked and hurriedly grabbed whatever was around them.

"Clang! Clang!"

The alarm bells on the lookout tower rang sharply, followed by a series of firm and powerful footsteps.

"Hurry! Hurry! Get on deck! Everyone get on deck! Get on deck now!"

"All apprentices, stay where you are!"

The knights on the wizard ship rushed out of the various passageways.

At this moment, they were not as relaxed as they usually appeared; everyone had a serious expression and a solemn demeanor.

His armor was fully on, and he gripped the cross sword tightly in his hand.

A soft yet clear "hum" sound emanated from inside the wizard ship.

Then a thin film quietly unfolded from the outside of the wizard ship, enveloping it completely.

The film looked soft and fluffy, like an overblown toy bubble, making you wonder if it would burst if you poked it.

Strangely, when the membrane was stretched open, the massive, overwhelming waves were blocked by it and remained completely still.

Outside the bubble, the sea surface was churning with towering waves, while inside the bubble, the seawater was almost completely still and calm.

The rocking and swaying wizard ship calmed down again.

Meanwhile, the knights had gathered on the deck, forming standard military battle formations in a five-by-five fashion, and were watching intently ahead.

Lynch roughly counted, and aside from the crew members reserved for important parts of the ship, there were no fewer than a hundred knights gathered on the deck alone.

Among them, even the Grand Knights, who were hailed as the guardians of the kingdom, numbered in the double digits!

Tsk tsk...

It was only at this moment that Lin Qi gained a direct understanding of the combat capabilities of this wizard ship.

Hundreds of knights and more than a dozen great knights!

The fighting units gathered on the deck alone were enough to sweep across the entire Lolunt; even if all the noble lords of Lolunt were gathered together, they would be powerless to resist.

But here, he was just an ordinary sailor on a wizard's ship.

However, even with such a powerful military force gathered, enough to flatten the entire Lorunt, Lin Qi still did not feel relaxed.

Whether they were knights or great knights, everyone had a solemn expression and a serious face, with a hint of preparedness for death in their eyes.

The situation... seems bad...

Lynch frowned.

Although he had a teleportation portal as a backup, this was a vast ocean, with not even a foothold...

If something really goes wrong, I'm afraid I'll have to stay in the Land of the Dead for a long time.

The schools of fish on the sea surface were getting closer and closer, and only then could the apprentices finally see the full picture of these fish.

The scale was far, far larger than they had imagined, even to a terrifying degree.

From ordinary sea fish and shrimp, to dolphins, sharks, and whale sharks that are several meters or more than ten meters long, and even giant octopuses and squids that are tens or hundreds of meters long.

Even some unnamed sea monsters with fish heads and humanoid bodies.

A vast number of marine creatures crowded into this small area of ​​the sea, completely ignoring the natural food chain. They were so numerous that they were impossible to count.

The apprentices never imagined they would be terrified by the food on the table, but this moment truly instilled fear in them.

There's just too much of this stuff.

They surrounded the wizard ship densely, layer upon layer, almost filling the entire sea area.

Despite the inability to communicate, each apprentice still managed to discern clear emotions in the fierce glints of those sea creatures—

They have ill intentions!

Dark clouds pressed down, covering the entire sky and blocking out all sunlight.

The sky darkened!

"What...what do they want to do?"

"Why are you surrounding us?"

"No... I won't... I won't get eaten by the fish, will I...?"

Anxiety spread rapidly among the apprentices, and every apprentice's face was filled with apprehension.

The wind howled, and the ferocity in the fish's eyes intensified.

The atmosphere was extremely oppressive, almost frozen, and the situation seemed to be on the verge of spiraling out of control.

It's just one step away from exploding!

But at that very moment!

"Buzz!"

A deep humming sound rang in everyone's ears. The sound wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear at that moment.

Along with the sound, a blinding light suddenly shone.

Suddenly, a beam of energy, tens of meters in diameter, shot up from the deck and flew straight toward the dark clouds in the sky.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the thick, dark cloud, tens or even hundreds of meters high, exploded, its surface cleaved open.

Sunlight streamed straight down through the gap, forming a huge pillar of light in the air and illuminating the sea once again.

A figure appeared silently in the middle of the pillar of light.

He is an Eton wizard.

He stood in the center of the pillar of light, his right hand, holding a short-handled wand, casually hanging down at his side, his black cloak fluttering in the wind.

He stood there silently.

Looking down at the terrifying, tide-like school of fish below, his eyes showed no fear, no unease, only utter—

disregard!

A kind of indifference that completely disregards the other party.

If they are gods!
