Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 217 [217] How should we treat King Yahalak in the Dream World?

The highest point of the dark pyramid structure.

In the huge room, the dim light flickered and shone on each wizard, casting long shadows.

The dark-colored long table, made of some unknown material, had fine lines flowing with a dark, arcing light, like photon blood, giving it a strong sense of wizarding technology.

The Ghostlight Wizard swung his short legs, a hint of helplessness on his childish face. His little hands tapped the table lightly, and suddenly a large number of projections appeared in the blank space of the central stands.

The wizards sitting in the other eleven seats shifted their expressions slightly and looked over.

Only formal wizards who possess a wizard tower can have seats at the highest council.

In the shadowy corners, there were still some silhouettes of figures. They were all official wizards observing from the sidelines, some of whom were even more powerful and held higher positions than the eleven official wizards who were seated.

By not choosing to build the Wizard's Tower, one gains freedom and convenience, but also loses certain rights while reducing obligations.

The projection clearly showed the events leading up to and following the events in White Lake Wizard City, as recorded by the True Vision Sphere.

This included Wang Ya's solo slaying of Duoguyin, and the subsequent execution of four Limit Wizard apprentices using the Burning Silence Array. The appearance of the enormous black flame lotus with a range of three thousand meters immediately moved the expressions of the formal wizards present.

With their keen eyesight, they could naturally see more, such as the extraordinary characteristics of Wang Ya's black particle energy in battle.

Given the sheer size of the Burning Array, even some of the advanced sorcery they used would find it difficult to penetrate. Wang Yahalak had prepared in advance and set a trap, but it still couldn't conceal the power of this sorcery, nor the strength of his own abilities. Don't forget, he was merely a third-level sorcerer apprentice.

Fighting a level above your own, or even taking on multiple opponents single-handedly!

Winning speaks for itself.

The process is important, but the result is what determines everything.

During the meeting, many formal wizards were unusually silent, not saying a word, but just quietly watching the content on the projected screen. No one could know the complex emotions in their hearts.

The Ghostlight Wizard glanced at the reactions of the other formal wizards out of the corner of his eye, focusing on the faces of the Bone Wizard and the Rhine Wizard, lingering for a moment.

The Bone Wizard's expression remained indifferent, seemingly unmoved, but his hands, resting on the table, were gently stroking, revealing a turbulent inner state.

The Rhine Wizard remains the same as always.

The scene continued to play, including the subsequent appearance of the Bone-Eating Demon, the judgment of the North Star, the convergence and fission of the Limit-Breaking Sorcery, and the outbreak of the Burning Silence Sorcery. The canal of White Lake Wizard City directly formed a huge hole, which was irrigated by a large amount of lake water, and everything vanished into thin air.

The Rhine Wizard became excited, especially by the burst of the Fission Incineration spell, which amazed him no matter how many times he saw it.

If it weren't for the current situation, he would have already stood up and applauded.

Only elemental wizards can understand this feeling, especially those who are also fire elemental wizards.

"I believe that everyone here already understands many things, so I won't waste any more words. There are three issues to be resolved at this Supreme Meeting."

The Wizard of the Gloom's expression turned serious. The projected image gradually dimmed, and in its place, the ceiling lights provided a little illumination, making his solemn expression and even the pores on his face clearly visible.

"The first thing is about the White Lake Wizard City incident. The distribution of credit among all members of the Dark Hand should be clear, with rewards and punishments clearly defined. Everyone can speak freely and discuss a suitable method of reward and punishment."

The Bone Wizard spoke first: "The mission is rated A, and the rewards will be as per standard A-level mission standards, including Dark Points, Magic Stones, and an opportunity to enter the Land of Inheritance. Furthermore, although the mission was completed, the actions of Captain Polaris Wizard were highly problematic. I propose abolishing the position of Captain of the Dark Hand and replacing it with another wizard."

Upon hearing this, all the formal wizards present were somewhat moved, and each glanced at the Bone Wizard with a different expression.

Even Rhine Wizard, the White Bone Wizard's old nemesis, was secretly amazed. "That White Bone guy is really ruthless. He directly discussed stripping the captain from his position in front of Polaris's teacher, showing absolutely no respect for Gloom Wizard."

Subconsciously glancing at the Gloom Wizard, the Rhine Wizard met a pair of deep, dark eyes, as unfathomable and terrifying as a dark abyss.

The atmosphere during the meeting had clearly changed.

The Bone Wizard seemed oblivious to everything and continued explaining his reasons.

Including Polaris leading a portion of the Dark Hand to the Sea Wizard City while at the teleportation tower, Polaris's actions at White Lake Wizard City—using Limit-Breaking Wizardry to gather and create the Bone-Eating Demon—consumed too much of the earth's energy.

"Based on my assessment, she is a wizard with good potential, but she lacks the ability to serve as a captain. This requires not only strength, but also rich experience and intelligence."

The Rhine Wizard's lips twitched, and he looked at the Gloom Wizard once again.

The other formal wizards present, even those with fiery tempers like the Fierce Tiger Wizard and the Demon Dragon Wizard, all concealed their auras and drifted off into their own thoughts.

The yellow wooden mask on the Dream Wizard's face turned blue again, and the frequency of the graffiti-covered eyes opening and closing noticeably increased. His hands, hidden in his sleeves, were fiddling with the hem of his robe, and his gaze was slightly lowered, seemingly focused on the flow of energy through the cracks in the table before him.

The Ghostlight Wizard smiled coldly. "The Bone Wizard's suggestion is good and in line with the rules and procedures. Punishment should be fair and just. I have seen that Polaris made a mistake or did something not good enough, and he should be punished."

"Other formal wizards are welcome to voice their opinions. Every issue needs different voices and opinions. This is a principle and rule that has been passed down since the founding of the Underdark."

The Rhine Wizard's eyes lit up. Since the Gloom Wizard had said so himself, he was no longer sleepy.

The first task didn't take much time; it was completed within a day.

"The second issue concerns the problem with the teleportation array. The information gathering of the mission system malfunctioned, causing a loophole in the Dark Hand's enforcement mission, putting them on the defensive and indirectly leading to numerous casualties, including the death of a Dark Hand member."

The Dark Wizard's eyes turned cold. "We must find out the exact reason and give an explanation to all the wizards in the Darklands. The rules have been severely violated, and this has shaken the very foundation of our Darklands."

"And the wizard behind the Bone-Eating Demon, who has been able to hide his methods beneath the ley lines for so long, makes it hard for me not to suspect that this might be related to the invasion of the Natural Ring Tower." The Ghost Light Wizard's cold gaze swept over the many official wizards in the entire highest conference room.

"And the Darklands' response to the repeated provocations against the Natural Ring Tower!"

Three days later, the arrangements for this incident were finalized.

Regarding the repeated invasions of the Natural Ring Tower, almost 90% of the official wizards expressed the same view.

That is 'kill'!

The Underdark is like a dozing tiger. If it is repeatedly provoked by other beasts and does not respond, it will be seen by other beasts as having lost its fangs and claws, and is no longer a threat, but a prey to be slaughtered.

The Ghostly Wizard's eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent. She would make the Natural Ring Tower know just how terrible the price of reckless behavior could be.

"The last thing, that's about King Yahalak!"

The words of the Ghostly Wizard stirred the hearts of the formal wizards present; the real highlight was finally about to begin.

The wooden mask on the Dream Wizard's face was now fixed in yellow, and he sat up straight.

The expression beneath the mask was extremely solemn and serious.

The Wizard of Shadows gave the assembled wizards a deep look before continuing, "How should we treat King Ahalak?"

The construction principle of the Bone-Eating Pearl, and how the mastermind behind it all created the essence of the evil god into such a form—these are all things Wang Ya needs to analyze. If the Bone-Eating Pearl is lost, the breakthrough and sublimation cannot be completed, and the value of that experimental data will be greatly reduced.

In some respects, experimental data is the key to unlocking the hidden treasure, the Pearl of Corrosion.

Harak also clearly showed a desire to devour the Bone-Corroding Pearl. The infinite black core within his body could sense items that produced beneficial effects, almost as if it were an instinct.

As Wang Ya walked out of the Dream Tower, her figure gradually disappeared on the cobblestone path.

Almost instantly, the gap in the dream opened, allowing one to enter the dream world through a corner of the dreamscape.

When Wang Ya opened his eyes again, he found himself in an environment filled with colorful light. Various floating bubbles emitted a beautiful and alluring glow, and it seemed that one could see into a person's heart and reflect the true thoughts in their mind.

Whether it is ugliness, beauty, hatred, or any other emotion, all will be exposed within the dream bubble.

Wang Ya's [Dream Bubble] witchcraft is a high-level witchcraft, and it also has another name, which is 'Mirror of the Mind'.

Unfortunately, it only superficially reflects some inner thoughts and incorporates some concepts of dream observation witchcraft.

Advanced witchcraft is a summary of a relatively one-dimensional approach, and Wang Ya has only scratched the surface of its essence.

Ultimately, it was too superficial, which is why he chose to influence reality through illusion, using dream bubble magic in conjunction with dream seeds to absorb and release damage.

This includes, but is not limited to, physical properties and illusory shallow layers.

The enemy is also skilled in the power of illusion, and their power level is higher than Wang Ya's. The dream bubble is as easy as a real bubble, bursting at the slightest touch.

【Dream Territory Range: 600 meters】

[Dream Power: 68 units]

[Number of Dream Bubbles: 16]

The extent of the Dream Territory, to a certain extent, represents the strength or weakness of Wang Yameng's wizarding path.

The larger the territory, the more dream power it can contain, which to a certain extent affects the combat strength of the dream wizard.

Most importantly, Wang Ya needs to expand his Dream Territory, gain more influence in the Dream World, and capture more powerful Dream Creatures to increase his mental strength.

He was only 3 points away from breaking through to the limit of the Wizard Apprentice level.

I haven't been in good shape these past couple of days, I've become a timid dog. I'll try to push myself tomorrow and get back to three chapters (12,000+).
