Wizard Immortal

Chapter 208 Contract

At night, the thin moonlight shone on the ground.

On a flat plain, Adir, dressed in a black robe, cast his shadow on the ground, illuminated by the moonlight.

He walked on the ground, making a series of footsteps. In front of him, a pure black raven was slowly scurrying about, its scarlet eyes occasionally glancing at Adir.

At a certain place, Adir stopped.

Before he knew it, a group of people had gathered around him.

They were black figures, like pure shadows, their features indistinct, silently standing around Adir, surrounding him.

"Welcome. It seems you've thought through my previous suggestion."

A familiar voice came from afar, carrying a casual tone.

Under Adir's watchful gaze, Jim walked out from a distance, his black robes inconspicuous in the darkness.

After a few days, his injuries had completely healed, his appearance had changed somewhat, and his aura was much stronger than when he was first seen.

"Is this how you welcome me?"

Looking at the shadows surrounding him, Adir turned to him.

"Sorry, this is the automatic defense of the witch formation."

Jim shrugged. "You know, safety is always the top priority when on a mission."

After saying this, he snapped his fingers, and a unique spiritual wave spread out, instantly turning the surrounding shadows into ripples and dissipating.

Jim glanced at Adir, then turned and walked to the side.

Following behind Jim, after a short while, under a shadow, Adir arrived in front of a small black wooden house.

The cabin looked very unusual, not only in its style and materials, but also in the aura it exuded, which made Adir feel a little strange.

In front of the cabin, there are several tall stone statues, each standing at one of the four corners.

"Come in," Jim's voice came from the small cabin in front.

After glancing at the surrounding stone statues and hesitating for a moment, Adir walked forward.

A faint light appeared.

Inside the cabin, two figures were standing: Jim and an old man dressed in a black robe.

The old man looked very old, with wrinkles all over his skin, but only one of his eyes was normal. The other eye was completely black, looking like a shadow that absorbed all gazes.

"Hello, let me introduce myself, I am Corula." The aged voice rang out from the spot.

Looking at Adir's appearance, the old man smiled.

As he spoke, his spiritual power vibrated continuously, and a shadow-like magical power swirled around his body, constantly enveloping him and spreading a layer of black mist.

This unique sight made Adir wary: "Another wizard in the metamorphosis stage."

"I am Adir."

He glanced at the other person, and on the surface, Adir put on a smile.

"In fact, we both know most of your information."

Across from him, listening to Adir's words, the old black-robed wizard named Korula nodded: "Since you have taken the initiative to come and see us this time, you must have already made a decision regarding our previous proposal."

"certainly."

Adir's smile remained unchanged: "In fact, I've always felt that the Dark Wizarding Alliance suits me better than the Emerald Hand."

"It's wonderful that you think that way."

Korulla sighed, "In fact, the Emerald Hand has always maintained a suppressive attitude towards you foreign wizards. On the surface, it seems to be doing well, but foreign wizards like us, even if we serve them for a hundred years, will never gain their real support, let alone the trust of the higher-ups."

"In contrast, our Black Wizard Alliance doesn't have these problems. As long as you are strong enough and your identity is not problematic, you will receive our unanimous support."

"In particular, our Dark Wizard Alliance has just been established and there is a shortage of wizards within the alliance. As long as you can prove your loyalty and ability, you can receive sufficient rewards."

Looking at Adir, Korula smiled and said, "Even the legendary advanced meditation method is not impossible."

Upon hearing this, Adir was startled, but quickly realized what he meant, feigning surprise: "Advanced meditation method? Could it be an even more advanced meditation method?"

"certainly."

Speaking of this, Corula said with a sigh, "The reason why organizations like the Emerald Hand and Griffin Academy have been able to thrive for thousands of years is because they all possess advanced meditation techniques."

"Only those who possess advanced meditation techniques have a chance to stand at the top of the wizarding world; otherwise, they will never become a second-level wizard in their entire lives."

He paused, then, seeing the shocked expression on Adir's face, continued, "The existence of advanced meditation techniques is one of the secrets of the entire Maison region. Besides organizations like the Emerald Hand and Griffin Academy, the Elven Royal Court of the Silvermist Forest and the sea creatures of the deep sea also possess advanced meditation techniques. That's why their power stands at the top of the wizarding world, comparable to wizards throughout the entire human world."

"This is your only chance, Adir," Jim chimed in from the side.

He looked at Adir, his expression calm: "Apart from our Dark Wizarding Alliance, you simply cannot obtain advanced meditation techniques anywhere else. Take the Emerald Hand, for example; their advanced meditation techniques are only passed down within the families of the Dean and a few elders. Apart from the heads of these families, no one else can learn them, let alone an outsider like you."

"Our Dark Wizards Alliance is different."

At this point, Jim's face showed a look of reverence: "Our leader is not only powerful, but also far more magnanimous than those corrupt and conservative forces. As long as you prove your ability and achievements, even something as simple as advanced meditation techniques will be bestowed upon you."

"Within our alliance, almost all formal wizards know about the Advanced Meditation Technique, and some have even been received by the leader and successfully obtained it."

Hearing this, Adir was also surprised.

The importance of advanced meditation techniques to wizards is self-evident.

This is the most precious treasure passed down from the ancient wizards, and it is an essential item for those who want to advance to a higher level of wizard.

In the places Adir had stayed before, whether it was the southern continent, the northern plains, or the Maison region, any news about advanced meditation techniques was blocked. It was almost impossible for an ordinary wizard to obtain a copy of an advanced meditation technique.

The fact that the leader of the Black Wizard Alliance dared to openly reveal the news of the advanced meditation technique, and even went so far as to bestow it upon others, surprised even Adir.

"With such courage and determination, it's no wonder that those scattered black wizard forces were integrated so quickly. Besides the terrifying strength of the black wizard leader, the allure of advanced meditation techniques is probably also an important reason."

Thinking of this, Adir couldn't help but sigh.

Standing before him, looking at Adir's appearance, Krulla and Jim exchanged a glance, then took out a yellowed parchment: "This is your contract. If you are willing to join, then sign it here."

Silently accepting the parchment, Adir glanced at it and fell into deep thought.

In his mind, streams of data flowed continuously, and the chip kept running, analyzing the loopholes in the contract.

After a while, he raised his head and continued to look at the parchment on the wooden table.

The contract itself is not problematic. Compared to some contracts, its content is not too harsh, and it maintains a certain degree of autonomy, allowing the right to refuse certain tasks.

Aside from certain clauses, the most important condition of this contract is that one must serve the Black Wizards Alliance for one hundred years before being granted freedom.

Looking at the terms, Adir frowned slightly: "Can I modify anything?"

"You can tell me."

Korula paused for a moment: "The main conditions cannot be changed; there is no room for negotiation on that."

"Furthermore, if you wish to acquire advanced meditation techniques in the future, in addition to demonstrating the necessary talent, you will also need to sign a more stringent contract based on this one."

"Don't worry, of course I understand."

Adir smiled and said, "I've heard some stories about wizards who, due to some accident, were transported to certain secret realms or even other worlds by ancient magic arrays, and were unable to return."

"If this happens, would it be considered a breach of contract on my part?"

At this point, Adir's expression turned serious: "Therefore, to avoid this situation, I would like to include a clause at the end of the contract stating that if I am accidentally transported to some secret realm or other world, this contract will be automatically terminated."

Hearing Adir's words, Korula paused for a moment before shaking his head: "Such worries are completely unnecessary."

"Interdimensional teleportation arrays, even in ancient times, could only be established by certain powerful ancient wizards. Very few of them have survived to the present day; most are incomplete. Each one is extremely valuable, and it is impossible to encounter one under normal circumstances."

"As a wizard, one must consider all situations. After all, although this contract is not fatal, the price to pay for breaking it is enough to make any formal wizard feel heartbroken."

Adir calmly retorted.

"Okay, if you insist."

Korula smiled, took the contract, and added a clause to it: If the contractor leaves this world, the contract will automatically become invalid.

"Leave this world? What if we get trapped in the secret realm?"

Seeing Korula's actions, Adir's expression immediately turned somewhat displeased.

"I'm sorry, this is the limit."

As if seeing through something, Korula's gaze fixed on Adir, his deep, shadowy eyes revealing no depth: "If we really include secret realms, I'm afraid if you just randomly choose a secret realm and enter it on your own, the contract will automatically be dissolved."

"Moreover, we have specific measures in place to address this, so you don't need to worry."

"All right."

Upon hearing this, Adir's face immediately darkened, but he still didn't say anything.

PS: I recommend "The Ultimate Demon Lord". Here is a brief synopsis:

In a world in decline and a martial arts world in its twilight, how can one cross the path to the heavens in martial arts?

A constable from a small town is transported to another world and awakens strange superpowers, embarking on a martial arts path unlike any other before.

This is a book by a friend. I haven't read it myself, but I'm just recommending it. If you're interested, feel free to check it out.

There will be another chapter later.
