Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 301 [301] Calming the Waves, Returning to Headquarters to Ride the Tide

Diana's pupils contracted as the touch on her back, icy and murderous, touched her fair and warm skin.

She could feel an even hotter temperature melting her flesh and blood, giving that hand the power to kill any life.

Am I going to die?

How could I possibly die in a place like this?!

The absolute void particle energy within his body was being activated at the fastest speed, and the resulting particle energy arc was expanding. The storm of extraordinary spiritual power was also indiscriminately repelling everything in that instant.

boom!

Like a torrent, space itself was distorted, and the formless and intangible energy of the void particles could instantly shatter a skyscraper into nothingness.

The airburst caused blood to flow from the ears of all the apprentice wizards present, and their internal organs to crack. They coughed up a mouthful of blood and either knelt on the ground or grabbed the wall to avoid collapsing completely.

However, even with such a powerful resistance, it still could not stop that fair and slender hand. Black arcs of light were dancing, as if forming some kind of electric current, covering that hand.

Like an absolutely sharp sword, it pierces through everything that stands in its way.

The Void Particle Energy Shield was dissolved by the black arc light almost without any pause. Accompanied by the sizzling sound of burning, the hand pierced through Diana's chest and instantly burned away her internal organs, spreading towards her head and limbs.

"No!" Diana opened her mouth wide, black flames bursting out from it. Her body was almost burned to ashes by the flames of the Burning Soul. The Void Particle Energy emanating from her head resisted, but it was all in vain.

Along with its extraordinary spiritual power, it was forced back by the energy of the Burning Silence particles, and some characteristics of the Nightmare Annihilation Power were incorporated into it.

The three official wizards of the Natural Ring Tower were instantly countered, some dead and others wounded, suffering utter misery. It was clear to everyone that the official wizards of the Natural Ring Tower had lost their ability to fight.

All of this was done by one of their own people.

Everyone stared blankly at the scene in the sky, completely dumbfounded. The development of events had exceeded their expectations.

I can't understand it at all.

The official wizards of the Underdark showed expressions of surprise. They recognized that it was the withered wood particle energy belonging to the withered wood wizard, but the scale and intensity of the release were completely unlike what the withered wood wizard could do.

Such ease and freedom are comparable to those of the Bone Wizard and the Rhine Wizard.

In an instant, they understood the cause and effect, and the reason for this situation. The withered tree wizard and the thorn wizard had not died at the hands of the enemy, but instead had obtained the enemy's information, imitated it, and then dealt a heavy blow to the enemy.

However, the identity of the third official black-robed wizard who appeared became a question in the minds of both the Green Tapir Wizard and the Blazing Flame Wizard.

Although her aura was undetectable, judging from her performance, the fact that she instantly controlled and even killed the Holy Maiden of Spirits, Diana, even if there was an element of attack involved, was enough to show that her strength was definitely not weak among formal wizards.

They are exceptionally skilled at concealing their presence.

After pondering for a while, he couldn't reconcile the image of the official wizard of the Dark Land with that of the wizard wearing the black lotus mask.

It seems the Underdark hasn't sent any support wizards either.

Who exactly is this black-robed sorcerer?

The green tapir wizard frowned slightly, a strange light appearing in his eyes, but he ultimately suppressed the impulse in his heart.

The Windwalker Wizard's eyes widened as his gaze fell on the figure in black robes, lingering particularly on the black lotus mask on his face for a moment.

A guess, one that even he himself couldn't be sure of, surfaced in his mind.

Could it be him? The black wizard's robes and the black lotus mask are so similar to his features. But he has been missing for so many years.

Windwalker looked at Wizard Is again and found that his gaze was also fixed on the black-robed figure, with a look of disbelief on his face.

A jolt went through her. The Wizard of Iss knew this black-robed wizard, and was quite familiar with him.

He also initially came from the Ancient Forest Mountain and was discovered by the Wizard of Yi Si. The Wind Wizard also had contact with him.

Maybe it really is him!!

The Windwalker Wizard's gaze fell upon the Wizard of Is and the Black-Robed Wizard, his expression moved.

He considered many other aspects. If it really was him, why was there no news for eighteen years? If Wizard Is could advance to a formal wizard, his potential would only be stronger, and advancing to a formal wizard would naturally be no problem.

It just so happens to appear at this crucial moment in the Battle of Baihu!

The Windwalker Wizard's expression shifted, and he gave the black-robed wizard a deep look.

There was no mistake, it was definitely him. Wizard Wang Yahalakis stared intently at the black-robed figure, his fists clenching unconsciously. The figure in his memory perfectly overlapped with the black-robed wizard.

He would never admit his mistake.

Before entering the Deep Blue Secret Realm, I had a premonition that a battle between the two of us was inevitable.

And they will become their strongest and most formidable opponent.

During the journey to the Deep Blue Secret Realm, the disappearance of the other party was so unbelievable that even Wizard Yi Si found it hard to believe.

It's absolutely impossible for Wang Yahalak to have died in a small, secret realm.

This was a belief that Wizard Yi Si had always held in his heart, even though the other party had been missing for eighteen years.

This was more of an intuition, a feeling, that he believed that one day, his battle with King Yaharak would come.

After disappearing for eighteen years, he has reappeared.

It's quite unexpected that this guy would cause such a big scare as soon as he appeared.

Wizard Yi Si took a deep breath and gazed at the spectacular scene in the sky. Naturally, the three official wizards around the tower were severely injured and not far from death.

Wang Yahalak seemed to want to capture him alive, so he did not kill him completely, but left him with a breath, allowing his mental consciousness to fluctuate.

If we could extract the memories from the minds of a formal wizard, we might be able to find the traitor within the Underdark, as well as some of his secrets.

Wizard Is's eyes turned cold. He wasn't stupid. The fact that King Yahalak appeared at this time, and in this way, made a quick connection to the situation. He could easily figure out the other party's purpose. Wizard Is frowned, his brows furrowing with a dark cloud. This was someone who had come to reap the fruits of victory.

Looking around, White Lake Wizard City was in complete disarray. The dead and wounded wizards of the main force were covered in blood, which stained the walls and flowed across the ground. The radiation of magical energy was seriously excessive, and countless buildings had collapsed. Most importantly, even the protective magic array of the city had disappeared.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Wizard Yi's lips, as if there were no such thing as victory; he had already failed.

All the wizards of White Lake Wizard City at this moment are the witnesses.

It witnessed his failure, but it also witnessed Wang Yahalak's success.

"So you're announcing your return so grandly, and I've become a stepping stone? It's a rather unpleasant feeling," Wizard Yi Si murmured, staring at Wang Ya's figure. Then her voice grew softer and softer, almost inaudible to herself. "However, the situation at headquarters has stabilized, and Wizard Youguang no longer wants any further fluctuations. What you want to do won't be so easy."

"It will be much more difficult for them than for me, and they will be under much more pressure."

The stability of the situation indicates that the internal conflicts have been resolved, or at least there are no problems on the surface.

Above White Lake Wizard City.

The yellow light emitted by the Nightmare Mirror shone on Diana's remaining head. Her body had been completely burned away by the Burning Flame. Wang Ya even had to carefully control his own particle energy, because if any of it was left, it would destroy the part that held the wizard's soul and will.

Her light blue hair was completely burned off, and her beautiful deep blue eyes glared resentfully at Wang Ya. Lacking vocal cords, Diana conveyed her words through mental fluctuations.

"Wang Yahalak, I'll remember you. I accept this defeat, but next time..."

Before Diana's mental fluctuations could finish transmitting, a sudden gust of wind swept in from all directions. It was too sudden and very strange. Wang Ya's brows furrowed, his expression changed drastically, and he quickly withdrew his hand from Diana's mangled body, moving away from this area.

This wind was peculiar; it was invisible and intangible, as if it were just a gentle breeze in nature.

Wang Ya clearly sensed the malice involved and felt an instinctive fear—an extreme threat that could even endanger his life.

His heart pounded, and he moved several thousand meters away again, his gaze fixed intently on the invisible and intangible natural wind that transformed into a tornado that stirred up a storm of clouds. No particle energy radiation could get close, and the resulting natural particle energy tide was incredibly powerful, even materializing, causing the spatial layer in that area to visibly undulate.

Wang Ya's expression was solemn as he spoke each word carefully, "A nature wizard, a true second-level Star Wizard!"

The wind extinguished the remaining flames of the Burning Soul on Diana's head with ease, as easily as blowing out a candle flame. The wind, carrying her head, forced a path through the circular tide of energy from the withered wood particles, like a ribbon.

The Dark Bat Wizard, also known as the Deadwood Wizard, located in the center, felt his hair stand on end and fled his location with a look of terror on his face, moving at an extremely fast speed.

The Shadow Wizard's physical body had shrunk to almost the size of a washbasin, but it still maintained its life. A large number of Shadows emerged from the void rift, taking the opportunity to merge their physical bodies into the natural wind.

Then the wind disappeared, and the three official wizards rescued Diana and the Shadow Wizard, but abandoned Deathsong Wizard.

The reason is that the Deathsong Wizard is dead, and even his soul and will have been extinguished, leaving no trace of his existence.

Wang Ya frowned slightly. It seemed that the sorcerer didn't want to make things too ugly and didn't attack them.

At the last moment before the natural wind disappeared, a teleportation portal appeared on the canal outside White Lake Wizard City, and the wizards belonging to the Natural Ring Tower quickly retreated into the teleportation portal.

The Thorn Wizard, who was tens of thousands of meters away, slowly flew back, carrying the mangled corpse of the Deathsong Wizard in his hand. There was no sign of life, and the consciousness and soul aura in the head had completely disappeared.

The Thorn Wizard acted decisively; seeing that he could not maximize the results, he directly killed the Deathsong Wizard, preserving some of the outstanding gains.

She looked at Wang Ya, a smile playing on her lips, and wrapped the Deathsong Wizard's corpse with thorns, sending it across the void.

Under the watchful eyes of all the wizards in White Lake Wizard City, he did not hesitate at all and directly put the corpse into the wizard's ring.

Then, passing the suspended wizard Yi Si, the black eyes in the holes of the black lotus mask met Yi Si's gaze, as if an invisible aura was clashing. Wang Ya slowly landed on the city wall. The Thorn Wizard and the Withered Wood Wizard also returned to their original appearances and followed him down to the top of the city wall, standing half a meter behind Wang Ya. Although it was only half a meter, it clearly distinguished the main and secondary figures.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Wang Ya placed his right hand on the Black Lotus Mask. His voice was not loud, but it resounded throughout the entire White Lake Wizard City.

"Most of you don't know me, and perhaps some of you who once knew me have forgotten me. But these are secondary. The most important thing is that White Lake Wizard City will not fall, and you have not lost. On the contrary, you have achieved great results."

Wang Ya raised his right hand, and the Nightmare Annihilation Mirror appeared behind him. The huge light screen formed by the yellow light reflected on it showed the physical corpses of the Dark Bat Wizard, the Crystal Wizard, and the Death Song Wizard, as well as the consciousness and soul of the Dark Bat Wizard and the Crystal Wizard.

The Green Tapir Wizard and the Blazing Flame Wizard were visibly shaken, their eyes filled with disbelief. The Green Tapir Wizard exclaimed in astonishment, "They actually captured a live official wizard! This is truly incredible! And there's also the Crystal Wizard, a veteran official wizard. The Underdark is really about to change!"

The Flame Wizard snorted coldly, his eyes flashing as he watched Wang Ya's retreating figure, lost in thought.

"This is the greatest achievement, a glorious result worthy of the fallen wizards of our headquarters." The moment Wang Ya's right hand fell, a hissing sound rang out, and the protective magic array belonging to White Lake Wizard City reappeared and was restored, forming a huge ripple energy shield.

The entire White Lake Wizard City fell into a tense silence for a few seconds, then one of the wizard apprentices spoke up, "We won! We won! Lord Nightmare Wizard is victorious! Lord Wang Ya is victorious!"

This voice seemed to be the fuse, and then more shouts rang out.

"We won! We won! We didn't lose, we are the victors."

"May the Nightmare Wizard triumph!!"

"Wayson!!"

Finally, the entire Whitelake Wizard City was engulfed in a sea of ​​noise, with excited and thrilling voices rising and falling, reaching the sky.

Between life and death lies immense terror and excitement; once overcome, it brings catharsis and, more importantly, growth.

This is also a test of the wizard's heart.

Such an experience is something many wizards may never encounter in their entire lives.

The wizards who were there will remember it vividly, and will still recall it many years later.

The wizard Yi Si hovered in mid-air outside the city, watching the bustling activity inside, and then looking at the black-robed figure standing on the city wall.

At this moment, it was as if the other party was the overall commander of White Lake Wizard City.

He watched expressionlessly as the wizard apprentices cheered for him, each one diligently memorizing his appearance. It was as if a wind had appeared, stirring up waves that grew larger and larger, threatening to engulf the tall buildings.

"A trendsetter of the times. No, it's just the wind picking up, the waves are just beginning to rise, and it hasn't reached its peak yet." Wizard Yi Si stretched out his right hand, the dark token he held emitting light. The cold wind blew through his hair, making it flutter in the wind. He was all alone, completely out of place in the bustling White Lake Wizard City.

"Witch Yi Si, this defeat is only temporary. I think we should be considering what to do next."

Wizard Is paused for a moment, then looked back at the Windwalker Wizard flying over and nodded, saying, "I failed, there's no need to deny that, but Wang Yahalak may not be able to keep succeeding forever; this is just the beginning."

"Let's go, it's time to go back. Windwalker, go back and bear the price I deserve." Wizard Yi's lips grew drier and drier. She licked her lips and let out a sigh of relief. Her straight back seemed to bend slightly.

In a hidden place in White Lake Wizard City, there is a special passage leading deep underground. Apart from a very few people who know the secret, no one knows that at the end of the passage is the energy center of the wizard array. With the right to change the energy supply, the city's protective wizard array can be completely rendered ineffective.

Of course, the requirements for permissions are extremely strict, and those who possess such permissions are almost all considered core personnel of the Underworld.

At the entrance, a figure gradually emerged. Light shone on the fair face of the wizard Lando, who squinted his eyes and listened to the hustle and bustle of the city, a smile involuntarily curving his lips.

"I've made you look impressive and helped you show off, my dear master, you can't keep anything from me!"

Tick ​​tock!

Fresh blood dripped from his fingertips.

Lando the Wizard yawned, shook the blood off his hands, and said with a sleepy look, "It's good to win, it's good to win. Now I can have a nice, lazy sleep."

"However, the city's protective magic array can be pried open, its permissions altered, and its energy supply stopped. There are probably no more than two people who can do that." Wizard Lando lowered his head, looked at his hands, and then put his right hand down.

"Or perhaps, a hand!"

Two days later, at the Dark Lands headquarters.

The news of the successful defense of Whitelake Wizard City spread like wildfire throughout the entire headquarters region, reaching all wizards in both the Lower and Upper Houses.

What's most intriguing isn't the news that Whitelake Wizard City was defended, but rather a story about a person.

A person who has been missing for eighteen years.

P.S.: Emm, I just hit the 5,000-word mark, I can't help it, cough cough.

Each one starts at 5,000 words, so it only adds up to 10,000 (I'm ashamed, I'll write more today).
