Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 40 [40] Particle Energy Interference, Wizard Yi Si's Observation

The lights were on in the new students' dormitories, and it seemed the owners were still busy.

The closed windows and doors would not affect Number Two's observation of the residence. His extraordinary bloodline, "Shadow Raven," possessed three special abilities: "Concealment," "Thermal Perception," and "Dark Breathing."

"Hidden" can conceal one's presence, allowing one to walk in the shadows, making it difficult even for a first-level wizard apprentice to detect him.

With his "thermal perception," he can accurately identify targets even in the darkest environments. Combined with "dark breathing," he gains specific visual senses, making him a natural-born assassin.

The area behind the dwelling is probably in the incubation room, and the heat reflected from the viewpoint is highest in this spot.

Number Two subconsciously took a deep breath, his bloodline power calling out to him. When he used "Dark Breath," he could capture all the scents within range and then, through thermal perception, form a spatial map in his mind.

However, a large amount of pungent odor gathered in his lungs and chest cavity. The smell was like something that had been fermenting in a cesspool for decades, mixed with a strange rose scent. His expression changed instantly; he had inhaled too much, and his body instinctively felt uncomfortable.

Inside the cultivation chamber, it felt like only this nauseating gas filled the air. Number Two's extensive experience and killer instincts made him instinctively flee the location. His body, however, seemed unresponsive; even moving a single finger was difficult, and his particle energy was in disarray.

Chi Chi!

Powerful particle energy converged into the incubation chamber, followed by an extremely high temperature that made No. 2's skin burn. Blinding sparks expanded and exploded from the doors and windows.

The terrifying pressure was too much for even the incubation chamber built with wizarding technology to withstand, and all that could be heard was a roar that made one's soul tremble, followed by a howl.

Crack! That wall instantly turned to ashes.

The fire element tide, formed by the convergence of high-density particle energy, directly submerged Number Two and affected the outer mist magic array.

It was like a terrifying dragon, spewing its breath at will.

The pitch-black night seemed to brighten briefly.

Number Two's pupils reflected the rampant, expanding flames until they engulfed him.

Even at the last moment, his expression remained numb, and the power of his bloodline was fully activated, causing feather-shaped scales to grow on his body.

The Mist Witch Array was severely impacted, even causing a crack in the central hub of the dwelling. However, it withstood the aftershocks, and even the fluctuating particle energy aura was concealed.

After everything calmed down, a huge, charred crater formed near the incubation room. The temperature remained very high, and deeper inside, crystals had even solidified at high temperatures.

A charred, pitch-black humanoid figure lay inside, its robes instantly turning to ash. Its left arm and right calf were even severed; the intense heat had completely killed the flesh, bone marrow, and cells, leaving behind charcoal-like fractures.

About fifteen minutes later, when the temperature had dropped considerably, a figure dressed in a gray robe walked out of the main room, his pupils gleaming with an imperceptible, subtle blue light.

Wang Ya stood in front of the charred pit, the lingering heat still scorching his cheeks, yet he wore a smile.

He was right. The wizard Gandhi was involved in the series of events that occurred in the Ancient Forest, and he would not take action himself, but would instead have the wizard assassin deal with him.

Of course, he did not use all the methods he had prepared, after all, he also took into account that Gandhi himself would have to take action.

When the Eye of Truth detected an intruder, he used a medium-level spell scroll to ensure the intruder was completely dealt with, just to be on the safe side.

[Hint: Target dead! Possessing the extraordinary bloodline 'Shadow Raven,' with some bloodline activity remaining. Analysis: Can induce bloodline evolution effects on the cultivated creature 'Halak.']

Wang Ya's eyes lit up immediately; this was an unexpected delight.

The Shadow Raven's extraordinary bloodline is among the best, even among lower-level extraordinary creatures.

Sometimes, they can even fetch the price of a mid-level extraordinary bloodline.

It can also induce bloodline evolution in Harak. Wang Ya was somewhat curious: could Harak, from an ordinary bird, give birth to its own extraordinary bloodline, and then breed and pass it down to obtain the entire extraordinary Harak race?

In fact, some powerful wizards have already realized Wang Ya's idea.

Build your own resource base and generate substantial profits by cultivating and raising extraordinary creatures and special extraordinary plants.

"Hmm!" Wang Ya's eyes flickered slightly. In the pit, there was actually a black short knife, half of which was covered by charcoal.

[Target: Shadow Assassin's Blade]

[Scope: Alchemy and Magical Artifacts]

[Level: Low-grade magical artifact]

[Abilities: 'Metal Activation', 'Overclocking Particle Formation', 'Particle Energy Interference']

[Evaluation: An extremely excellent low-grade magical artifact. It can absorb the user's particle energy, has excellent destructive power against energy shields, and can also interfere with particle energy. It weakens the influence of some low-grade magical arrays and spells.]

[Note: Part of the restriction core is damaged, and the 'particle energy interference' capability is disabled.]

Wang Ya blew away the dust and charcoal from the blade, revealing a dark luster that shone brightly, its sharpness dazzling.

nice one!

Wang Ya knew how this strange wizard assassin managed to maintain his bloodline activity and avoid being completely destroyed by the Crimson Dragon's breath.

With the blade of the Shadow Slayer, he struck its chest once, and the next moment, feather-like scales turned into charred ash.

The torso in the chest area is mostly overripe and necrotic, with a small portion remaining active.

Without wasting any time, Wang Ya took out tools from the cultivation room and extracted the Shadow Raven's bloodline from the corpse.

The small glass jar contained a dark liquid about two centimeters in diameter. It would take the work of a wizard to extract the true Shadow Raven bloodline factor.

This amount is not enough, but extraordinary bloodlines can be cultivated, so Wang Ya is not worried.

A week has passed, but only about three days have actually gone by.

With four days left, he killed a wizard assassin, and the person behind it would definitely not stand idly by.

It's likely that new troubles will come knocking, and there's more than one wizard killer.

The good news is that the person behind the scenes will not show up, and Gandhi the Wizard is also wary of the rules and Is the Wizard, so he will not take action against him.

Wang Ya's eyes were cold and sinister. He was ready to face whatever came his way. At this point, he was ready to risk everything; there was no situation worse than this.

He refused to believe that he couldn't endure staying in the freshman dormitory for just four days!

Wang Ya then began to clean up the mess at the scene.

However, all of this was observed by a pair of indifferent eyes. When they saw that Wang Ya had cleanly and efficiently dealt with the wizard assassin, a hint of surprise appeared in their eyes.

Then, seemingly drawn by curiosity, he carefully observed Wang Ya and immediately discerned the traces of particle energy, as well as the extent of his mastery of witchcraft. To the owner of that gaze, there was always a unique quality to the witches who practiced different systems of witchcraft.

However, this observation was significant, as it immediately startled the person who was looking at it.

They noticed that Wang Ya actually possessed traces of three fire element energy spells, which was probably unique among the freshmen.

A figure clad in a brown wizard's robe seemed to emerge from the void. He had purple hair, a middle-aged face, and a habitually cold expression.

It was actually the wizard Yi Si.

"Interesting little fellow, you've given me a surprise." A smile tugged at the corner of Wizard Yi's usually expressionless face.

Then, his gaze fell on the charred crater on the ground, and he revealed a fox-like squinting look, with a surprising smile curving his lips, as if he was about to burst into laughter.
