Wizard: Building a Cultivation Family from Scratch

Kuru stared wide-eyed at the sight of the raging flames before him.

Although he knew that the man in the knight's armor was actually a wizard, he hadn't expected him to be this powerful...

You know, this is an earth dragon!

But look at the scene before you...

Neither that ghostly figure nor the fireballs that rained down on the earth dragon like a storm could be done by an ordinary person.

At this moment, Kuru couldn't help but feel fortunate.

Back when we were deep inside the mine, I chose not to escalate the conflict with the other party.

Otherwise, I would probably be a charred corpse by now.

No...maybe even the corpse won't survive.

Thinking of this, Kuru quietly took a few steps back, hiding most of his body behind a giant tree, only revealing a pair of round yellow eyes.

Meanwhile, the battle between Gordon and the earth dragon was gradually coming to an end.

"boom!!!"

Another huge fireball exploded on the earth dragon's body, and the scorching flames spread along its scales, igniting all the surrounding leaves.

The intense pain caused the earth dragon to let out an angry roar, and its massive body slammed into an ancient tree beside it.

With a snapping sound, the huge tree, which was as thick as two people could hug, was broken in half by the impact.

However, Gordon had already used his speed advantage to quickly move to the other side.

At this moment, the situation on the battlefield had turned around. Although this earth dragon possessed an extremely powerful physical body, it was far from being able to match the current speed of Gordon.

Moreover, Gordon can continuously unleash spells using the Primal Stone he carries.

The only thing that gave Gordon some trouble was...

After releasing more than a dozen fireballs in succession, the few Chaos Stones he carried were almost exhausted.

This also made him realize that while this method of directly using Primordial Stones to provide spiritual energy for spells could greatly reduce his own energy consumption, it would put a huge strain on his wallet...

However, for Gordon at this point, this was no longer important.

Because the battle in front of us is nearing its end.

At this point, many of the scales on the earth dragon's body surface had been charred black, and several obvious wounds had appeared on its abdomen.

Although these injuries are not fatal, they have greatly affected its mobility.

Thinking of this, Gordon had a thought, and a pale blue aura immediately wrapped around his body.

  

The next moment, his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

"roar!!!"

The earth dragon seemed to sense the danger as well, and suddenly turned its body, opening its blood-red maw to pounce on Gordon.

However, just as Gordon was about to collide with it, he lowered his body and flew past the earth dragon's jaw almost touching it.

And the knight's longsword in his hand, which was imbued with golden light, was raised high.

Gordon's purpose was clear.

Since this earth dragon

If it has extremely strong defensive capabilities, then why not just attack its weakest point, the eyes!

The dragon's vertical pupils reflected the knight's longsword gleaming with golden light.

The sharp tip of the sword was less than half a meter from its eye!

However, at this very moment...

An urgent voice suddenly came from not far away:

"Wait! Don't hurt Tata!"

At the same time the sound rang out, Gordon suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet seem to tremble slightly.

Immediately afterwards, thick vines burst forth from the soil.

These vines grew extremely fast, and in just a short moment, they quickly wrapped around Gordon's arm and the longsword in his hand.

Upon seeing this, Gordon was greatly alarmed.

He hadn't expected there to be a third person here!

However, he was only surprised for a moment before he flicked his wrist and, with the power of the Golden Light Technique, completely severed the several vines that were wrapping around him.

However, this delay caused him to miss the best opportunity to attack the earth dragon's eyes.

"roar!!!"

Enraged by Gordon, the earth dragon let out a deafening roar.

Upon seeing this, Gordon immediately pushed off with his foot and instantly retreated more than ten meters.

After he regained his footing, a slightly disheveled figure rushed out from the bushes in the distance.

This is a young girl who looks only seventeen or eighteen years old.

She wore a dark gray wizard's robe, her long light brown hair was draped messily over her shoulders, and she held a slender magic wand in her hand.

Clearly, those vines that suddenly sprouted from the ground were the result of her witchcraft.

However, the girl ignored Gordon completely and rushed towards the earth dragon with an anxious expression.

"Tata!"

Upon hearing the girl's voice, the earth dragon, which had been roaring angrily, visibly stiffened.

Then, it slowly turned its enormous head and looked at the girl who was running towards it.

The next moment, this incredibly ferocious beast let out a low, somewhat aggrieved groan.

"Waaah..."

Upon seeing this scene, both Gordon, who was present, and Kuru, who was hiding behind the giant tree, stared wide-eyed, hardly believing their eyes.

"Tata, how did you get so badly injured?"

The girl ran up to the earth dragon, looked it over, and then tears welled up in her eyes.

However, to Gordon and Kru's surprise...

Instead of attacking the girl who approached it, the earth dragon lowered its head and gently touched the girl's hand with the tip of its nose.

The girl quickly noticed the burn marks on the earth dragon's body.

Her expression changed instantly, and she turned to look at Gordon not far away, her voice tinged with anger:

Why did you attack Tata?

"..."

Gordon did not lower his guard, but stared at the other party and said in a deep voice.

"Because just before you appeared, this earth dragon was planning to turn the two of us into something like that stone-horned deer."

As he spoke, Gordon pointed to Kulu, who was hiding behind the giant tree, and then to the stone-horned deer carcass that had been completely torn apart not far away.

Seeing this, Kuru jumped out from behind and said, "That's right, it wants to eat Kuru! This thing is very dangerous!"

As the kobold spoke, it stretched out its two paws, trying to explain to the girl what had just happened.

Hearing this, the girl paused for a moment, then turned to look at the earth dragon beside her: "Tata, did you just attack them?"

The earth dragon slowly turned its head to one side.

The girl fell silent. After a long while, she turned to look at Gordon again and said somewhat awkwardly:

"I'm sorry, Tata is usually very obedient. It's probably just too hungry."

Now, both Gordon and Kuru realized that this earth dragon must have a close relationship with the girl in front of them.

However, before Gordon could speak, the kobold shouted first:

Does being hungry give you the right to attack others?

We didn't provoke it!

The girl seemed to realize that it was indeed her fault, so she lowered her head slightly.

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

Gordon did not pursue the matter further, but instead looked up and sized up the unfamiliar girl in front of him.

Although the other person looked young, and even appeared somewhat disheveled.

But judging from the vines that had just wrapped around him, the other party was clearly a wizard apprentice, and quite powerful at that.

Thinking of this, Gordon's gaze unconsciously fell on a silver badge on the other person's chest.

This badge is composed of a crescent moon and seven tiny stars.

This pattern is familiar to Gordon.

Because Daniel's study notes mentioned several large wizarding organizations in the vicinity.

This badge represents one of the wizarding organizations closest to Blackwater Valley...

The Starry Sky School!
