Wizard Immortal

Chapter 191 Departure

In the azure sky, wispy white clouds drifted about, and three enormous suns hung high in the air, radiating intense heat.

All around was a parched, cracked earth, with a sparse patch of small shrubs scattered around, adding a negligible touch of green to the landscape.

On a high mountain, thousands of corpses lay silently on the ground, with shattered weapons and armor scattered all around.

Warriors from opposing factions were fighting fiercely on the mountain, while outside, a large number of figures completely surrounded the mountain, looking from a distance like a swarm of ants blocking all the roads.

Blood was splattering everywhere, and the strong smell of blood spread all around.

At the end of the mountain, a stunningly beautiful young woman in a white and gold dress stood with a sorrowful expression, cradling a young man covered in blood in her arms.

After all the guards had died in battle, the girl looked back at the sky, gazing at the distant mountains and white clouds, and then leaped down while holding the young man's body in her arms.

Endless wind and darkness swept in, like a beautiful white butterfly falling to earth. The girl, cradling a corpse, plummeted into the abyss.

In her right hand, a dark crystal was tightly clutched, and she carried it with her into the abyss.

················

Scenes began to fade from my mind.

Sitting on the wooden bed in the room, Adir was somewhat dazed, and it took him a while to come to his senses.

Deep within the soul, a new world coordinate appeared, quietly floating beside the other two coordinates.

After briefly sensing the newly appeared coordinates, Adir discovered that the energy required to travel to this new world was significantly more than that required to travel to the post-apocalyptic world, and not much different from that of the other world. Even with Adir's current soul strength as a formal wizard, it would take him five or six years to accumulate enough energy.

"No matter what, having another new world coordinate system is a good thing."

Composing himself, Adir muttered to himself.

After obtaining the new world coordinates, Adir continued to sit on the edge of the bed and began to meditate, preparing to test the effects of the advanced meditation technique.

Unlike ordinary meditation, the Moon Goddess Ritual requires not only constructing various runes in one's consciousness during meditation, but also visualizing a silver moon.

Perhaps because of the elven bloodline within Adir, this step proceeded smoothly.

In the dim sea of ​​consciousness, as Adir entered a meditative state, a silver moon condensed in the sea of ​​consciousness, radiating a bright silver light that illuminated the entire sea of ​​consciousness.

As the Moon Goddess Ritual slowly circulated, a warm current gradually grew within Adir's body, and the flow of his blood began to accelerate. Combined with meditation, he entered another unique state.

"Moon Goddess's Ritual Meditation in progress...Main body mental strength is increasing...Mental strength purification begins to increase..." The voice of the chip machine suddenly sounded in his mind.

This meditation lasted for a long time, several hours before Adir opened his eyes again and exited the deep meditative state.

"Meditation ended...Main mental strength increased by 0.07...Mental strength purification rate 0.01%..." The voice of the chip machine rang out again in his mind.

Listening to the chip's prompts and experiencing the effects of this meditation, Adir nodded: "The effects of advanced meditation are indeed quite good. Not only can it increase mental strength, but it can also enhance the purification level of mental strength during meditation."

"However, the effect is still a bit slow."

"My progress is being meticulously recorded on the chip," Adir muttered to himself.

As an advanced meditation technique, the Moon Goddess Ritual is far more effective than other meditation techniques. For Adir, who has now reached the level of a formal wizard, it can also increase his spiritual power.

However, the effect was somewhat slow.

Meditation practice has time limits; you can only meditate for a certain amount of time each day. If you exceed that time, it will affect your mental state and negate the training effect.

At Adir's current level, he can only meditate on the advanced meditation technique of the Moon Goddess's Sacrifice once a day.

Judging from the results of this meditation, it would probably take hundreds of years to reach the requirements for advancing to a second-level wizard through meditation training.

After all, the effects of meditation will gradually diminish, and once the purification level of the mind reaches a certain point, the difficulty of improvement will increase significantly.

"While this level is not bad, it is still somewhat lacking compared to the meditation method of the Moon Goddess Ritual."

Sitting on the edge of the bed, gazing out the window, Adir muttered to himself, "This is, after all, an advanced meditation technique exclusive to the Moon Elf royal family. Even among advanced meditation techniques, it should rank among the top-tier. It shouldn't have such a limited effect."

"The reason why it only has such a small effect is probably related to the elven bloodline in my body."

After pondering for a while with his head down, Adir thought of this possibility.

The Moon Goddess's Sacrifice meditation method is an exclusive meditation method of the Elf royal family, and the standard for its practice is to have the bloodline of the Moon Elf royal family.

In this respect, Adir is undoubtedly at a disadvantage.

His birth mother in this life should belong to a branch of the elven royal family, but since it is a branch, the royal bloodline in her body must not be very high, otherwise she would not have been stranded outside.

As for Adir, this half-elf, his already weak bloodline was diluted even further, so it would be a miracle if he could possess a strong bloodline at all.

Just as detected in the ruins, his bloodline was only of low grade. Even if he barely met the training standards of the Moon Goddess's Sacrifice, his training effect would certainly not be as good as that of those pure-blooded elven royalty. The effect would be at least discounted.

Adir even speculated that the reason he was achieving such results might be due to his high soul aptitude; a fourth-grade aptitude would be considered absolute genius anywhere. If someone with lower aptitude had been trained, the results might have been even worse.

"Well, this trip has already achieved quite a good result; we can't expect anything more."

Standing in the spacious room, Adir's expression was calm: "Moreover, if it really is due to bloodline, there might be a way to make amends in the future..."

He stood there for a while, tidied up his surroundings, and then walked to the door.

With a creak, the old-looking wooden door was opened by Adir, revealing the scene outside.

It was midday, the sunlight outside was weak, and a cool breeze was blowing across the earth, making people instinctively shiver.

Braving the cold wind, Adir walked downstairs and went straight to the hotel entrance.

His coachman was already waiting there. Seeing him emerge, he quickly and respectfully approached, saying, "Sir, the things are ready. Shall we leave now?"

"Okay, let's go."

Nodding slightly, Adir turned and glanced back at the inn behind him.

Before me, the dilapidated hotel stood silently in place, bearing signs of wear and tear, appearing to be at least a decade old.

After a while, he got into the carriage and prepared to leave.

····················

More than a month passed quickly.

One morning, sunlight bathed the surrounding land.

In Westwind City, Adir changed into a neat white robe and headed straight for the mission hall in the inner city.

The spacious hall was nearly empty, mostly filled with apprentices.

In one corner, a voluptuous, fairly attractive blonde female apprentice was already waiting. When she saw Adir, her eyes lit up, and she quickly went to greet him.

"My lord, you've arrived."

"The time was agreed upon for today, right?"

Looking at the female apprentice before him, Adir casually asked, "Have they arrived yet?"

"They're already waiting in the room."

The female apprentice's respectful expression remained unchanged, but she looked at Adir with a hint of awe: "Please come with me."

"Lead the way," Adir nodded.

After a while, led by the female apprentice, Adir walked into a small room next to the hall.

This is a very ornately decorated room with a clean carpet on the floor. Even before you step inside, a faint fragrance wafts through the air, instantly refreshing your senses.

As he entered the room, a wave of mental energy emanated from ahead, causing Adir to look ahead.

In the center of the room was a huge wooden table, and three people were sitting on one side of the table.

There was an old man in a white robe, a very composed-looking young man in a black robe, and a young girl.

Seemingly sensing something, the old man in the white robe turned to look at the door, where he met Adir's gaze.

Two different gazes met in an instant, and the mental fluctuations contained within them were clearly perceptible to both parties.

Sensing the spiritual fluctuations emanating from Adir, the white-robed old man stood up and gave a gentle smile: "Hello, nice to meet you. I am Hucaro, from the Tower of Cuba."

"I am Adir."

Seeing the smile on the other person's face and feeling the formal wizard-level spiritual power emanating from them, Adir also smiled and introduced himself.

After the self-introductions, the two sides quickly got down to business.

Under the other person's gaze, Adir took out a small wooden box from the side, placed it on the wooden table, and opened it directly.

As the black wooden box was opened, a golden crystal was revealed, radiating a pure gold color, like the most beautiful gemstone, mesmerizing all who beheld it.

Under the mental sensing of the wizards, a unique aura emanated from the crystal before them, causing a longing to flash in their eyes.

"This feeling, it really is a magic crystal."

Sensing the aura emanating from the golden crystal, the old man named Hucaro's face lit up with joy, and he then took out a black token from his pocket.

The token appears to be black, made entirely of a unique material, and seems to have a distinctive marking on it.

"This is a certificate issued by the Northern Wizarding Alliance, representing a spot to travel to the Maison region."

Hucaro handed the black token to Adir and began to explain.

"Now that the deal is done, I'll be leaving."

After checking for a while and confirming that there were no problems, Adir put away the black token and then spoke to Hucaro in front of him.

"Please wait a moment."

Ahead, listening to Adir's words, Hucaro smiled: "Since Lord Adir is exchanging this spot, he must want to go to the Maison region, right?"

This wasn't a secret, and after thinking for a while, Adir nodded directly.

Across from him, seeing Adir nod, Hucaro's smile deepened: "In that case, would Lord Adir be interested in accepting another private commission?"

"You can tell me about it."

Upon hearing the other party's words, Adir's heart stirred, and he spoke in response.

"These two children are my students."

Hucaro pointed to the two apprentices behind him: "These two will also be traveling to the Maison region by boat this time, and they will be going the same way as Lord Adir. If you don't mind, could you please look after them on the boat?"

"In return, I have information on some wizarding organizations in the Maison region, as well as several detailed maps, which I can make copies of and give to you, sir."

After hearing the suggestion, Adir lowered his head and thought for a while before finally nodding in agreement.

It was just a small favor, nothing serious, and besides, the information and maps of the Maison region were exactly what Adir lacked.

After reaching a verbal agreement, the atmosphere between the two parties immediately became much more harmonious.

Adir didn't leave until after the agreed time.

"Grandpa, could this gentleman be...?"

After Adir left, the little girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old in the small room couldn't help but ask a question.

Beside her, listening to her words, the seemingly composed young man couldn't help but look over, clearly also very concerned about the matter.

"Hehe, the only ones I can address as 'sir' are formal wizards of the same caliber."

Looking at the little girl beside him, Hucaro smiled, but his eyes held a hint of seriousness as he gazed in the direction Adir had gone.

"Such a young, fully-fledged wizard?"

Having confirmed her suspicions, the girl's expression froze, as if she didn't quite believe it.

There are too many geniuses in this world.

Hucaro patted the girl's head and said with some emotion, "In the Maison region, there are quite a few formal wizards like this who are young. There have even been people who were promoted to second-level wizards before they were thirty years old."

His face was filled with emotion, and a hint of inexplicable melancholy, as if he were thinking of something.

"Promoted to a second-level wizard before the age of thirty..."

The two young apprentices beside him, listening to Hucaro's words, were completely stunned.

Several days passed quickly.

Several days later, at the appointed time, Adir arrived outside the city.

Outside, Hucaro was already waiting with his men, with two apprentices quietly following beside him.

Before them stretched a long convoy of cars. Besides Hucaro, the official wizard, there were several high knights with guards standing by. They all appeared to be Hucaro's men.
