Wizard's Journey

Chapter 259 World Laboratory

"Green, you..."

She paused, and over the past two hundred years, a composure had gradually emerged in Mina's eyes, masking any other unusual emotions. She whispered, "Where is my sister? Is she already...?"

Green looked at Mina, the devotee in front of him, who seemed no different from the other devotees present. All the devotees had a face and sentiment of self-sacrifice, low-key and solemn.

I wonder if these devotees, during their youthful and naive years as wizard apprentices, were as wild and unrestrained as Mina? Does Mina, now a mature woman, still remember her youthful days?

More than two hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye. The fiery and arrogant girl who was once a wizard apprentice has now become a real wizard.

And I, too, have been through more than two hundred years. In the eyes of my former companions, am I no longer the person they remember, but have become an absolute stranger?

Green didn't know.

At this moment, Green could only try to recall the vague, youthful memories in his soul, vaguely feeling the joy of endless struggle, taking advantage of small things, and exploring the unknown, as well as the friends who would forever remain in his heart as the most precious emotional memories.

Is this the maturity that comes from a wizard's apprentice to a full-fledged wizard?

Green smiled.

The Face of Truth obscures Grimm's true face. The wisdom and composure of a formal wizard are already evident in Grimm. Compared to the true genius who silently struggled and gradually became bright and dazzling in her memory, the now incredibly mysterious Grimm is so unfamiliar.

"Millie is doing well. The demon-hunting expedition went smoothly, and she will be back in about twenty years."

The wizard's words brought peace of mind.

Because Green would never lie to Mina about this matter. Even if Millie really died, he wouldn't make up any pointless lies just to consider Mina's feelings.

Wizards have long since learned to bear life and death, and dark wizards have no interest in the weakness of others.

Mina's stunningly beautiful face revealed a serene smile, her red lips barely concealed. Her fiery red hair fluttered in the breeze, showcasing her extraordinary control over the element of fire, as if she were avoiding Grin's gaze, her eyes fixed on the other devotees.

"This is an old acquaintance of mine, so let me greet him."

The other devotees didn't say much; after performing the wizarding rituals on Green, they all quietly dispersed.

Before becoming guardians, the sole purpose of these devotees is to selflessly dedicate themselves to the wizarding world, serving as slaves and servants, much like the witch hunters who constantly contemplate the wizard's protective aura, continuously gaining recognition from the primal will.

Until one day, these recognized devotees, after rigorous selection, become the guardians of the world, and will rise to the top, gaining the respect of all wizards in the wizarding world, becoming the true guardians of this world.

Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap...

Green noticed that Mina was wearing high-heeled clogs, her delicate little feet exposed.

Inside the tall, empty tree hollow, the wooden clogs echoed continuously, and the red gauze robes wafted out a strange attraction between bodies reborn from the ashes, yet the two silently suppressed their unusual feelings.

"Your Meteorite from the Black Tower Wizarding Academy never became a formal wizard, and never left the Seventh Ring Holy Tower again." Mina said without turning around, as if talking to herself.

Green nodded slightly and said, "Oh."

As an original wizard apprentice who had acquired the talent of perceiving relative spatial boundaries, some of the circumstances surrounding Meteorite had already been told to him by Soram, and Green had already anticipated this.

Green also thought of something and suddenly said, "By the way, Viktor perished in this demon-hunting expedition."

"That mechanical heart... it's fallen too?"

Mina shook her head slightly and said, "I really didn't expect that the strongest guy during the new recruit trial would die in the first demon-hunting expedition."

The strongest?

Green was stunned for a moment, then said in disbelief, "Weren't you the strongest wizard apprentice during the newcomer trial?"

Mina glanced back at Grimm, and seeing the drastically different look in his eyes beneath his mask of truth, she was certain that Grimm truly didn't know about this. Then she took another step forward, "tap, tap, tap."

"After his mech's core was destroyed by Ghost Thief, I am of course the strongest."

Mech Heart!

Yes, Green remembered. When he teamed up with Raffi and the others to seize the Flame Fusion Orb, he did see Viktor studying the Mech Heart, which he had no idea what at the time, because of the Void Worm's interference.

So, it turns out that Victor was trying to repair and restore the heart of the mech?

In an instant, Green realized that the real world and the reality he perceived himself to be were actually two different worlds.

"What about the Ghost Thief?" Green pressed.

"That guy is very mysterious. Are you interested in his talent? I advise you to give up on that idea." After a cold laugh, Mina said, "That guy was officially wanted by the Seven Rings Holy Tower fifty-five years ago and became a fugitive black wizard on the Wizarding Continent."

A dark wizard!?

As a witch hunter, Grimm was well aware of the terror of dark wizards.

Those were wizards who collected "Human Despair" and used it to fight against the evil wizards within the human wizarding world!

It's like a biological tumor, stubbornly parasitizing the wizarding world, yet the wizarding world has no way to completely eradicate it.

Because, compared to ordinary wizards, dark wizards are far too powerful. Only elite demon hunter wizards who have spent years hunting demons and acquiring numerous resources can attempt to suppress and hunt them, or suppress and hunt them with the help of high-level wizards.

"Fifty-five years have passed, and yet no wizard in the Seven Rings Holy Tower has successfully claimed the bounty?" Green asked.

Mina shook her head: "Don't underestimate him. Over the years, not only have no wizards been able to claim the bounty, but he has also killed six officially registered wizards on record, including one witch hunter!"

As Green continued to express his astonishment to Mina, they gradually entered the depths of the tree hollow, and slowly, the fresh life essence of flowers and plants began to permeate the air.

Tick-tock...

A clear, emerald-green pool, resembling a pool formed by dripping stalactites, appeared.

The pool was small, only about ten meters deep, with rising clouds and wisps of golden vines scattering down. The strong life force seemed to be constantly strengthening Green's body invisibly, and Green actually felt as if he were in the space of the rules of the heart of the world.

Mina said, "We've arrived at the Heart of Life. The primordial will of the wizarding world here is enough for you to condense a third-class honor medal on your own. From now on, you can directly contact the combat command center for any demon-hunting expedition, and you will have the right to request the use of mechanical bees and command lower-level demon-hunting wizards to issue missions."

Green's eyes revealed undisguised joy.

From then on, in the demon-hunting expeditions, although he was still a low-level level one wizard, he enjoyed some special treatment because of this level three demon-hunting medal.

Stepping into the pool, as the intense life force of the clear water swept over him, Grimm couldn't help but let out a soft murmur. The strength of his Wizard's Shield began to slowly increase, and a six-pointed star symbol of a Level 3 Honor Badge gradually appeared on the Wizard's Shield...

After several hourglass incidents, at the slave market, Green sold all of his privately acquired gold Amonro to the Purple Gold Incense family and received a large quantity of Venus Incense's magic stones.

A day later, after leaving the Dark Wizard Headquarters and receiving his rewards of the Demon Hunter Expedition's Wizard Essence and Honor Medal Wizard Essence, Green mobilized the abundant life force beneath the Tree of Life in the sky, gathering it into a bubble around his body before flying towards his Demon Hunter Castle.

Ok?

Green discovered that his neighbor, Ungerie, was gone, the Demon Hunter Castle was now filled with the aura of a new Demon Hunter Wizard, and the myna bird was no longer nearby.

Clearly, this demon hunter wizard has likely already successfully advanced to the second level of wizard over the years and moved to the high-level demon hunter castle on the trunk of the Tree of Life.

With silent envy, Green landed in the courtyard of his demon hunter castle.

Green paused briefly before a mound in the courtyard. Had that old bastard who had dedicated over a hundred years to him buried himself here?

With a sigh, Green walked towards his castle and slammed the gate shut.

Using the power of nature, Green floated and flew through the castle, cleaning up the dust and restoring its cleanliness. Green couldn't help but think, "When I come back after this is all done, I'll hire new servants to take care of my daily needs."

With that thought in mind, Green arrived at the altar on the top floor of the castle, channeled his magic, and stepped into a dark rift.

"Oh no! It's the evil wizard! The wizard is coming! The wizard is coming! The wizard is coming..."

Hundreds of tiny Raindrop Flower Spirits screamed and looked up at the sky in fear. From a dark crack, Grimm, wearing a gray-white mask, gradually appeared in this fragment of the world.

Ok?

Green frowned slightly, looking at the green energy layer that was preventing him from fully entering this fragment of the world.

He had initially thought there was something wrong with the Demon Hunter Altar, but now, looking down at the group of tiny Raindrop Flower Spirits carrying Golden Ginseng Leaves, activating strange green energies that enveloped this spatial fragment, he couldn't help but smile.

Boring little thing...

Green's palm emitted a large amount of inextinguishable flames, which he gently swept downwards.

Amidst the disbelief and terror of the little ones, Green's inextinguishable flames easily destroyed layer after layer, dozens of layers of "world barriers." In despair and fear, the spirit of the Rain Dew Flower looked desperately at the sky, where the great wizard king, whom she could no longer stop from descending, had arrived in this beautiful "Rain Dew Flower World."

"No……"

One after another, the spirits of the rain and dew flowers rushed towards Grin, seemingly fearless of death.

To Green's utter astonishment, he snapped his fingers, and with a "snap," a large number of the rushing Rain Dew Flower Spirits were stunned. Only two Rain Dew Flower Spirits were struggling to stay afloat, clutching their little heads and looking at him in despair.

"Evil wizard, why? Why! Why have you acquired such power? Why have you invaded our beautiful Rainflower world? Do you intend to enslave us again? No! That's absolutely impossible! We, the great Rainflower race, will never compromise! This world will forever belong to us, the Rainflower race, and we will fight until only one warrior remains!"

The strongest of the Raindrop Flower Spirits, Little One, was actually shouting at Grin in Wizarding Language.

But in Green's mind, this Raindrop Flower Spirit was nothing more than a slightly larger intelligent mosquito, one that could be easily swatted dead without even needing a wizard.

Uh?

Invading the world of Rain and Dew Flowers? Re-enslaving? What's going on?

Green suddenly raised his head and looked at the spatial rift above him that had not completely disappeared. Then he looked at the group of raindrop flower spirits who were powerless to resist and was shocked!

Is this the perspective of a higher life form towards a lower life form? In the Blackrock Wizarding Academy, in the ruined tower, is that the eye looking into the laboratory bottle?

Green felt a chill run down his spine. He feared that the True Spirit Wizard was looking at him in the same way he was looking at these Rain and Dew Flower Spirits.

Suddenly, after the initial shock, Green revealed an unexpected joy.

So, this fragment of the secondary space has such a purpose: to create a world laboratory!?

Green's surprised smile, however, seemed to the two raindrop spirits who were not stunned as the end of the world, filled with despair.

This great wizard demon king is far too powerful. The great Rain and Dew Flower Spirit Clan... uh?

The spirit of the still-conscious Rain Dew Flower was completely stunned.

After circling the World Tree once and glancing at the World Fruits that were just beginning to develop on it, the wizard ignored his own spirits of rain and dew flowers and vanished from the world.

After a brief moment of astonishment, as the spirits of the raindrops, stunned by Grimm's power, awoke one by one, they discovered the evil wizard had vanished and exclaimed with delight, "Yes! The evil wizard has been defeated by the great prophet and has fled the world of the raindrop spirits..."

The other Raindrop Flower Spirits also began to celebrate enthusiastically, surrounding the two Raindrop Flower Spirits that had not been stunned by Grimm.
