Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 10 [10] There's no medicine for regret in this world.

Wang Ya in the mirror was wearing a simple gray robe, with black hair and black eyes, a very straight nose, and mixed-race features. A beauty mark at the corner of her eye added a touch of gentle charm.

His eyes were deep, as if they held the vastness of the starry sky.

He rubbed his hair, which was still damp with water droplets. His bangs fell down, sticking to his forehead and eyebrows, with a few strands clinging to the bridge of his nose.

Wang Ya shook his head and walked out of the bathroom. Inside the room, Harak's transformation was almost complete.

Their physical appearance and other characteristics become completely fixed.

The black, glossy spots on the feathers have been completely replaced, making them appear even blacker. They are hidden in the shadows and cannot be seen with the naked eye.

Those black, glossy, spotted feathers seemed to possess some extraordinary properties, exempting them from certain forms of witchcraft that relied on mental perception and low-level detection abilities.

The ability to defend against particle energy magic should also have this effect.

The head is covered with feathers that lie close to the cervical spine, giving it a streamlined shape, and the pupils are blood red.

Instead of being curved, the bird's beak became perfectly straight, with a very sharp tip, giving it a powerful killing ability.

Wang Ya waved, and Harak flapped its wings and flew over, landing steadily on his shoulder.

The two black, metallic claws had also grown drainage and buoyancy-supporting tissues, which could perfectly retract the sharp claws and rest the soft parts on Wang Ya's shoulders.

Its size is exactly the same as when Wang Ya bought this crow; it is very small.

It was quite heavy, incredibly so, like carrying dozens of kilograms of iron.

[Hint: Transformation complete. Harak has gained three new extraordinary traits.]

Target: Black-feathered Raven

[Physical Fitness: 11]

【Spirit: 1.3】

[Status: Lower-level extraordinary being]

【Characteristics: Iron Claws, Steel Hide, Basic Particle Magic Resistance, Blood Rush, Basic Stealth】

With a physical constitution exceeding 10 points, even without relying on numerous extraordinary characteristics, one could be considered a low-level extraordinary being.

The corresponding wizard is a first-level wizard apprentice.

"Not bad, little guy, your little brain has finally grown a bit of wisdom."

Wang Ya tapped Harak's forehead with his finger.

I'm quite satisfied with the current transformation.

Although this size lacks the imposing stature and intimidating presence of a giant, an assassin lurking in the shadows is far superior to any big guy.

Most importantly, it aligns well with Wang Ya's aesthetic preferences.

The wizard in his robes, with a black raven perched on his shoulder, was certainly better than the large bird with a big beak that flapped its wings and stirred up huge gusts of wind behind him.

Compared to before the mutation, its massive size could not keep up with the small figure moving through the shadows, and its sharper, harder claws would tear everything apart.

As for the numerous thorny sea beasts still roaming on the wizard's ship, Harak was not afraid of a group attack, and the darkness was no longer their domain.

The bird's blood-red pupils have a septum that can capture any heat or movement.

It's unclear how long this crisis will last, or what the situation is like with Wizard Tuta.

Wang Ya raised an eyebrow and stopped pushing the door open.

Let's wait and see, wait for the darkness that shrouds us to disappear.

There will always be a result.

I'm dying!

Rottweiler was terrified; the flush on his face proved that he had used all his strength to fight against the thorny sea monster pressing down on him.

His pupils reflected the open mask, revealing a gaping maw of ferocious, side-by-side sharp teeth, which was still drawing closer, dripping foul-smelling liquid onto his cheek.

But it still couldn't stop that gaping maw from getting closer. Bone spurs pierced her hands, dripping blood. The strength of her grip gradually gave way and she loosened her grip.

You could have survived, you definitely could have.

If he were just a little stronger, he could hold on. If he were just a little stronger, he could survive.

Scenes from my time at the wizarding conference flashed through my mind like a slideshow, from my shy speech to the cheers of the new students, and then to the sheer joy of basking in the applause.

It was so close, just a little bit off.

The moment Rottweiler's gaping maw snapped shut, all he felt was regret.

If he had tried a little harder, put more effort into his wizard meditation practice, and prolonged the influence of particle energy radiation on his physical body, he could have survived. He could have. His talent was exceptionally high; he was a top-tier newcomer, and he shouldn't have ended up like this.

He couldn't help but think of the two newly minted wizards who had been wandering around collecting food. However, he didn't have much time left for his fleeting thoughts. *Thud* His head was bitten off.

The thorny sea monster chewed and tore at the flesh, its excitement reaching its peak.

Creatures with extraordinary characteristics can be used as experimental subjects for wizards.

Conversely, the wizard's physical body, after being affected by particle energy radiation, and the pure particle energy within the body, are also something that extraordinary beings crave immensely.

Not far ahead, Olsen's body had long been torn to pieces, his purple hair stuck to his scalp and mixed with some scraps of clothing.

The floor was covered in blood, with trails of drag marks.

boom!

The loud banging on the door startled Arthur, who was hiding in the room.

They're coming after us, those terrifying monsters!

They've already fed the Rottweiler and Orson, yet they're still so greedy.

Bookshelves, tables, chairs, and even beds were blocked at the doorway.

Arthur didn't have much hope for these things. The Thorn Sea Beast's powerful physique and tough body were enough to smash through the door, tear a crack, and squeeze in.

He was like a rat in a jar, left only to wait to die and be eaten.

"Damn it, how could I possibly die here? I'm the most talented new wizard!"

Arthur glared and shouted angrily, "You sons of bitches, go ahead and eat all those new wizards! You can eat them all!"

"Those two bastards who chose the extraordinary cultivation system deserve to be eaten the most. They even raised cultivated organisms. Go eat them! What do you want from me? I guarantee you'll have a good meal."

boom!

The door was slammed even harder, leaving a crack, and the eyes of the Thorn Sea Beast appeared, staring at him greedily.

At this moment, Arthur, with a look of resentment on his face, took out a red metallic ring that was hanging on his chest.

"Damn monster, you've made me expose my biggest secret. The Wizard Tuta is still on the ship. If he finds out I have this opportunity, will he steal it from me?"

"I have the best aptitude, and I have a great chance of becoming a formal wizard. Getting this opportunity will prove that I am a true genius. Wizard Tuta wouldn't be that stupid."

Arthur reassured himself, glaring hatefully at the thorny sea monster that had already shoved its head inside.

All the particle energy in his body was instantly drained and injected into it. Only then did the red metal ring slowly begin to glow faintly.

He found the ring when he was young on the island continent where he lived, and only after boarding the wizard's ship did he learn about some of its true nature.

A true wizard's storage artifact contains many things, but his particle energy and mental power can only barely open it for a moment.

Among them are the spell scrolls made and used by wizards, as recorded in the Dark Atlas.

It could unleash powerful magic simply by tearing it open. After so many days of exploring with his mental perception, this was the only item he was certain he could retrieve.

A flash of light appeared, and an ancient parchment scroll materialized in Arthur's hand. The wizarding runes inscribed on it meant "Particle Energy Spell - Blazing Explosion."

"Monster, die!" Arthur laughed excitedly, tearing open the scroll and aiming it at the Thorn Sea Beast.

He seemed to see the monster meet a tragic end.
