Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 74 [74] The Spear of the Underworld: The Ghastly Corridor

The districts governing Wizard City are named after the wizard towers located in various directions.

Behind the Dragon's domain is a formal wizard. Dragon is a title, not his real name. Only after becoming a formal wizard can one have the right to establish his own title and spread his fame throughout this wizarding continent.

Other wizarding factions also collect this kind of information.

Some relatively friendly wizarding factions would even have their own official wizards lead students from wizarding academies on exchange programs.

Wang Ya had a pretty good understanding of the target tasks.

A wizard's achievements are related to the privileges held by members of the Underdark. When achievements reach a certain level, privileges will be increased, and more rights and resources will be provided.

The mission level is only displayed on missions issued by headquarters. To put it more directly, it is the difficulty. Level D missions are generally for first-level wizard apprentices, including wizards who are new to the profession.

The highest-level missions are said to be S-rank, and even formal wizards sometimes accept them.

"The Mayan Kingdom." Wang Ya frowned slightly. The location was indeed quite far, and they would need to use a teleportation array to get there.

However, one can travel directly to the City of the Sun Wizards from the Dark Lands via a teleportation array, and then proceed to the Mayan Kingdom.

The jurisdiction governs Wizard City, which in turn governs hundreds or thousands of mortal kingdoms.

Given the vastness of the region, even with all personnel mobilized for their assigned tasks, the Dark Lands can only barely maintain the current balance and stability. If any problems arise, they certainly cannot be resolved immediately.

It needs to be reported step by step to become a relevant task in the Dark Library, or a directly assigned task.

Pushing open the door to the study, I sat down in a chair, with a draft paper on the table in front of me.

Wang Ya held the quill pen, tapping his fingers lightly, a thoughtful expression on his face.

D-level missions are not very difficult, and even if they fail, the executor will almost never have any major problems, at least their life will be safe.

Vengeful spirits are formed from souls filled with negative emotions through the mutation of particle energy. They exist between illusion and reality, and the more powerful the vengeful spirit, the greater its influence.

For ordinary people, it is a nightmare, an existence they cannot resist.

In the eyes of wizards, it is a special kind of soul, and can even be used as a supernatural material.

The source of the nightmare powder is very likely that it was brewed by vengeful spirits filled with fear using special methods.

Wang Ya wasn't concerned about that aspect; what mattered were the two people she encountered at the Hades store.

In short, it's always better to do more preparation.

In the Free Zone, the evening glow reflected on the walking wizard's figure. Wang Ya turned a corner from the street and entered a secluded alley.

At the end was a pitch-black wall. Wang Ya did not stop. His spiritual power surged out and he sensed the wall ahead. His body collided directly with the black wall.

Strangely, his body disappeared directly into the black wall.

When I opened my eyes again, the environment in front of me had changed drastically. The light was dim and blurry, with endless rows of upright black pillars and black stone slabs overhead. The height and width of the structures were designed to give people a sense of visual ease.

On both sides are rocky cliffs with deep ravines, and every now and then there is an entrance or exit in the hollowed-out rock face.

The whole thing looks like a huge circular corridor with no end in sight.

In fact, this place is indeed called the Corridor of Gloomy Light.

The information Gray gathered about the new generation of wizarding families all came from this place.

For a certain price, you will have access to information about all the wizards in the Underdark, including but not limited to their spells, available wizard quests, skill levels, and chosen wizarding paths.

In addition, other information is also available for sale, including information about secret realms, resources, special geographical locations, and even minor events that occur in a particular place.

Wang Ya even suspected that this glowing corridor might be linked to the source of information for the wizarding quests in the Dark Library.

It is certain that it exists under the tacit approval of many wizards in the Underdark.

From entering the corridor to exiting, a total of three minutes had passed. Wang Ya's wizard mark had already added a map related to the Demon Dragon's territory, which was so detailed that it even included information about the Mayan Kingdom.

The price is fifty magic stones.

The price of a complete map of the Underdark is outrageous; Wang Ya simply cannot afford it with his remaining 350 magic stones.

They also did not choose to obtain information about those two people.

Asking about witchcraft or strength without knowing the person's exact identity is ridiculously expensive.

next day!

Having prepared everything, Wang Ya, with Harak slung over his shoulder and a True Vision Orb that could collect sound and images tucked into his sleeve, stepped into the Dark Land teleportation array.

As the executor of the mission, the teleportation array is provided at public expense, while the True Sight Sphere is a standard mission item used to collect relevant information and serve as a notary.

The wizard's mark, through the central authority of the wizard's array, slowly activated the teleportation array, injecting particle energy from beneath the earth's veins.

A brilliant white light shone into Wang Ya's pupils as he gradually disappeared into the teleportation array.

Two figures slowly arrived from the other end of the passage. Looking at the teleportation array accumulating energy, Barton Bailin revealed a sinister smile.

Eugene Bellamy clenched his fists, making a cracking sound. "Brother, we've finally waited for this opportunity."

"Yes, we've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time!"

Barton Bellin subconsciously stroked his storage artifact, the ring on his index finger.

Inside were magic scrolls, extraordinary potions, and even the mid-grade magic weapon "Spear of the Underworld," which he had bought by selling other low-grade magic weapons and taking out a loan.

All of this was prepared for this enemy; even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit.

As a trump card, the 'Spear of the Underworld' is said to be absolutely sharp, and it is also the top quality among mid-level magical artifacts.

This time he was 100% confident.

After all, the targets and tasks were influenced by them, and they even had some arrangements within the Mayan kingdom.

"The Dragon Territory is practically the wizard families' home turf, so these Dark Points were well spent. Monta deserves credit for his efforts." Eugene Bellin's heart bled as he thought of the lost Dark Points. They had accumulated them over many years, intending to exchange them for some precious knowledge at the Heritage Library.

"Alright, let's set off and make some preparations beforehand."

"Brother, I think we've prepared enough. It's just a new wizard."

Barton Bailin glared at him, his voice low and menacing. "Killing a new wizard is a small matter, but he's currently on a mission with objectives, and headquarters will definitely investigate afterward using the True Sight Sphere."

"The rules strictly forbid killing each other. King Yahalak can fail the mission, be killed by vengeful spirits, be killed by supernatural beings, or be killed by wild wizards, but he cannot be killed by us."

Barton Bellin laughed again, "However, the Mask of Remnants can solve this problem. Two wandering sorcerers near the Mayan Kingdom wanted to seize resources and then killed the new students who came on the mission."

"That makes perfect sense, especially for a wild wizard whose strength is only that of a first-level wizard apprentice. As an elite wizard of the Underdark, if he loses and dies, then he dies."
