Wizard: Building a Cultivation Family from Scratch

Gordon clearly wouldn't accept the old knight Granger's suggestion.

After all, if he handed this wild wizard over to Viscount Wolf, he wouldn't be able to extract enough value from him.

"No."

Gordon shook his head:

"By then, it will be too late."

"As you can see, this is a wild wizard skilled in necromancy. If we let him escape, not only will the entire Blackwater Valley suffer, but the surrounding areas may also be affected."

Hearing Gordon's words, Granger fell silent.

However, just as he was about to say something, Gordon had already drawn his sword and walked in alone.

"Lord Gordon, please wait for me!"

Upon seeing this, Orianna immediately took small, quick steps to catch up.

"Oriana!"

Granger exclaimed in alarm, "This is too dangerous!"

Orianna turned to Granger and said firmly:

"Uncle Granger, as the lord of Blackwater Valley, I cannot tolerate a wild wizard lurking in my territory. This poses a great threat to my people."

As she spoke, she took a lamp from the mine wall beside her and then followed Gordon into the depths of the mine without looking back.

"Damn it."

The old knight Granger sighed helplessly, then looked at the Blackwater Knights behind him and gave the order:

"You stay here and take good care of Maurice."

Also, don't let him get away.

Granger pointed to the guide and said.

"No!"

Director Xiang, his face filled with terror, knelt down on the ground with a thud:

"Sir, this has nothing to do with me! Please let me go!"

However, Granger ignored him, took a deep breath, and chased after Oriana and Gordon in the direction they had disappeared.

......

The further you go in, the narrower the passage becomes.

  

The rock walls on both sides were damp and cold, with a few strange scratches still faintly visible on them.

At this moment, Orianna was carrying the ever-burning lamp, her head tucked in, cautiously following behind Gordon, completely devoid of the "lordly majesty" she had just displayed.

"First... no, Lord Gordon..."

Orianna asked nervously as she walked:

"Should we scout ahead first? What if we go straight in and encounter an ambush? After all..."

However, before she could finish speaking, a scream came from Oriana's mouth.

Gordon, who was walking at the front, looked back.

They found Orianna pressed against the wall.

Under the light of that ever-burning lamp, one could vaguely see many scattered bones beneath the spot where she had just stepped.

Judging from its shape, it doesn't seem to resemble a human.

Orianna's cheeks were flushed, and her chest heaved.

She lowered her head slightly and said somewhat awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gordon, I..."

Gordon shook his head somewhat helplessly.

However, just as he was about to say something, a faint sound caught his attention.

Shh! Don't speak!

Oriana immediately held her breath, not daring to make a sound.

Then, after an unknown amount of time, Gordon suddenly pushed off with his feet and ran quickly along the narrow passage.

"Wait, wait for me!"

Seeing this, Oriana hurriedly followed.

After running for an unknown amount of time, the narrow passage suddenly came to an end, and a not-so-spacious underground cave appeared before Orianna's eyes.

At the same time, Gordon, dressed in knight's armor, appeared before them.

"Lord Gordon..."

Orianna was about to speak when she seemed to suddenly notice something and stared blankly around...

This is an incredibly chaotic cave.

In the corner were piles of broken bones and rotting animal hides, and there were many other miscellaneous items scattered on the ground.

Several abandoned mining trucks were dismantled and scattered in various places.

One of the mine carts was even upside down in a corner of the cave, with animal hides laid on its bottom, making it look like a makeshift bed...

On the other side of the cave, Oriana was astonished to see an enormous ceramic basin.

Inside, clusters of exceptionally large, bluish-black mushrooms grew...

What on earth is going on...?

Oriana never expected that deep within this mixed crystal mine, there would be a cave resembling a dwelling.

Could this be where that wild wizard is hiding?

Soon, by the dim light of the ever-burning lamp, Orianna suddenly noticed something moving in the distance.

It was a small, somewhat dilapidated wooden table.

Beside the table, a short, hunched figure was facing away from them, frantically stuffing various things into his arms.

He was wearing an ill-fitting black robe, and in his arms he was holding a thick notebook that was larger than his upper body.

Suddenly, the figure seemed to sense something; his body stiffened abruptly, and then he slowly turned his head.

At this moment, Gordon and Orianna finally saw what the wild wizard looked like:

It has a long snout, pointed ears, brown fur, and a pair of wide, yellow eyes.

Obviously...

This is a dog-headed man.

"Aww!!!"

Perhaps startled by Gordon and Oriana's appearance, the kobold suddenly let out a short shriek, and the clutter in his arms fell to the ground.

"Humans!!"

"It's a human!! Kuru!!"

It hurriedly backed away, only to step on the hem of its own black robe, causing the dog-headed man to fall to the ground with a thud...

The entire cave fell silent.

At this moment, both Gordon and Oriana were stunned.

Looking at the scene before them, they all felt a very strange feeling rise within them.

"..."

This is the wild wizard who terrified Viscount Wolf and the entire Blackwater Valley.

A talking dog-headed man?

Gordon and Oriana exchanged a glance, seemingly understanding each other's thoughts.

At this point, the kobold seemed to realize that his fall was very inappropriate for the occasion.

It quickly scrambled to its feet and hurriedly adjusted the glasses that were perched on its nose, which it had apparently stolen from somewhere.

He then straightened his black robe, strained to puff out his thin chest, and said:

"Stop! Stop right there!"

"This is the cave of the Great Kuru!"

"You! Humans! Leave!"

After saying that, he raised a dry, thin wooden cane that resembled a tree branch and waved it defiantly.

"Get any closer...danger!"

Although this kobold wanted to appear threatening.

But his constantly trembling paw betrayed him.

Gordon looked at the dog-headed man in front of him and suddenly felt a sense of absurdity.

If it weren't for the fact that the undead in the mine had caused them so much trouble, they would have been in trouble.

He would probably find it hard to associate the guy in front of him with the so-called wild wizard.
