Wizard's Journey

Chapter 296 Experiment Notes

half a month later.

Leaving the Tomb of Words Wizarding Academy and holding the Seventh Ring Contract, Grimm arrived at the outer perimeter of the central area of ​​the Seventh Ring Holy Tower.

Beneath the mask of truth, his eyes gazed upon the massive castle built halfway up the mountain, and Grimm murmured to himself, "This must be it?"

In the early stages of the war in the world of Shadow Mystery, Grimm unexpectedly rescued a female sorceress from a pile of corpses and voluntarily took her magic wand as payment.

At the time, Green thought the matter was over.

But as the Shadow Cataclysm descended, Grimm discovered that the reward he had demanded for the magic wand was actually the life casket of this female sorcerer. And with the witch's death, she was reborn in the life casket in the form of a metal doll.

On one hand, the life box is hidden inside the magic wand, which is Green's reward and is his personal property.

On the other hand, after the witch was reborn through the Life Box, although she was no longer a witch hunter, she was still a wizard of the wizarding world.

In that case, Greene shall not enslave or restrain a wizard in any way.

The two sides have fallen into a logical contradiction.

Left with no other choice, the metal doll made a contract with Grimm. If Grimm took her into the Demon Hunter World fragment, she promised him a treasure when he returned to the Wizarding World, and she only needed one item from the treasure.

Afterwards, Green hurriedly returned to the Wizarding World to lift the curse of Nightmare Shadow, and when he sold Amonro at the slave market before returning to Witcher Castle, he released him from the fragments of the Witcher Castle world.

According to the contract rules, she should be waiting for him here to fulfill the contract.

Only a few years have passed, which is not a long time for a wizard, and the other party should have made some preparations.

With that thought in mind, Green summoned the power of nature and slowly descended to the front of the large castle.

Ok?

I was amazed by the strength of the magic array surrounding the castle. Such strength could not have been set up by an ordinary wizard. It must have been set up by a high-level wizard or a wizard who specializes in the study of magic arrays.

Creak, creak, creak...

Several trees, some over thirty meters tall, in the castle courtyard slowly opened their eyes, their branches swaying and making creaking sounds.

Upon seeing Green, one of the thickest trees slowly said, "...the...respected...wizard..."

The tree speaks at an alarmingly slow pace.

Green shook his head, holding the Seventh Ring Contract in one hand and taking out the crystal ball in the other, transmitting the identity information of the metal witch figure on the Seventh Ring Contract into it.

Hiss...

The transmission of magic power and the information from the crystal ball seemed to have been interfered with before being received, which should be the result of the other party's reincarnation in the Life Box.

"Green, you've finally arrived."

Inside the Grimm crystal ball, a lifelike metal figure appeared. This metal figure was clearly no longer the same as Grimm had been after his reincarnation in the Shadow Mystery world, where he even stumbled while walking.

"Um."

Green nodded, adopting the air of a mysterious and aloof dark wizard, and said in a deep voice, "Judging from your expression, you seem even more eager than I am to complete the contract?"

As they spoke, the metal figure flew from the castle toward Grimm, and the many guardian trees slowly turned their heads to look. Grimm also put away the crystal ball.

With a "pop," the metal figure passed through the magical barrier without hindrance.

By unleashing its magic, the metal figure casually released the elemental matching code, revealing a gap in the magical barrier.

The metal miniature figure greeted them with a wizard's salute: "Please come in."

Green nodded and went straight in.

There's no need for high-level wizards to frequently bow and return greetings to low-level wizards. Currently, the status of the Grimm Demon Hunter Wizard is clearly a level above that of the Metal Dwarf Arcane Wizard.

Crossing the lush green grass, Green followed the little metal figure to the castle hall.

"Master." A little boy with black hair and green eyes, dressed in a loose wizard's robe, bowed to Grimm.

After nodding, Green noticed that the little boy seemed to have only recently awakened his magic.

"Luo Xia, go to the room inside and study."

After the metal figure sent the little boy away, it said nonchalantly, "This is the third disciple I took in on my way back. He has some talent."

Then, the metal figure led Green to a long corridor and spun a vase on an inconspicuous cabinet in the middle of the corridor.

Creak, creak, creak...

Amidst the whirring sound of metal gears turning and rubbing together, an underground passage opened up.

With a whoosh, one magic lamp after another lit up, making the red carpet stand out.

Walking ahead, as the little metal figure led Green into the tunnel, the entrance closed again amidst the creaking sound of metal gears grinding together.

"Green, this is the treasure I was talking about."

The metal figure jumped onto the magic experiment table in the underground passage and pointed to a teapot placed inside a red and cyan double-layered magic barrier in the center of the table.

Green walked to the experimental table, and with the help of the magical light, his eyes, hidden beneath the greyish-white mask of truth, stared intently at the teapot within the double-layered enclosure. He asked in confusion, "What is this?"

The metal figure smiled mysteriously, snapped its fingers, and the double-layered magical restrictions on the experimental table disappeared in the next moment.

"A spatial magical artifact! No, this artifact emits the energy of human despair... a dark wizard's black magic artifact?"

Green exclaimed.

As the metal figure once again activated the magical barrier to conceal the despair emanating from humanity, Grimm looked at the metal figure with a puzzled expression, awaiting her explanation.

The metal figure said calmly, "This is a precious spatial magical artifact passed down from my mentor. It is not even a spatial artifact in the ordinary sense; it is a magical spatial sealing artifact."

Sealing the magical artifact!

Green knew the significance of sealing magical artifacts, of course. The Green Python Thread that his third uncle gave him was a low-quality sealing magical artifact, but its value was calculated in terms of magical essence.

Legend has it that some truly powerful sealing artifacts are connected to illusory spaces, such as nightmare realms, dimensional gaps, and other non-material spaces.

The more powerful, fantastical, and elusive the non-material space is, the less it can influence the rules governing the movement of matter in the endless world, and the less it can be traversed freely.

Green tentatively asked, "You mean, this magical artifact seals a dark wizard inside? Then why...?"

"No!"

The little metal figure interrupted Green, of course she knew what Green meant.

Why not take the sealed artifact to the Seventh Ring Holy Tower to claim the reward?

"Because the wizard sealed inside is my mentor himself. He was only infected with the despairing aura of a dark wizard during an experiment. I believe that he must have been a legitimate elemental wizard in life, and I cannot let him bear the infamy of a dark wizard."

Does the failure of the experiment lead to human despair?

Can this kind of thing be transferred?

Green looked at the metal figure with a suspicious gaze.

The metal figure slowly took out an experimental logbook from a corner of the experimental table and handed it to Green.

The handwriting was somewhat messy, and some characters used ancient wizarding hieroglyphs, making it a little difficult to read, but Green still patiently read on.

…………

"If this great sorcery succeeds, it will be enough to allow me to enter the wisdom of dawn. This will be a milestone development, and my name will be passed down by all future sorcerers! I will name it 'Noki Ancient Regenerative Great Sorcery.' Yes, this is my own original sorcery."

The story begins with a wizard named Noch having a magical idea and then starting to work on it in a crazy way.

Green was used to this kind of scene; every wizard had experienced something similar. So Green continued to look down.

"It didn't work?"

"Mutual exclusion?"

"Blood contamination?"

……

"Damn it, these alien humanoids and demi-humans must be inferior creatures, it must be, it must be, there's no reason why it won't succeed... Yes, I need to experiment on humans, only in this way can I prove my value, my meaning of existence, my great wisdom..."

By this point, Green had been reading his experimental diary for the duration of an hourglass.

For the next two thousand years, this wizard devoted all his energy and wealth to the research of this outlandish witchcraft, and conducted experiment after experiment, each of which was described and recorded in detail.

However, without exception, all experiments failed.

The principle behind this "Noki Ancient Resurrection Great Magic" is that the wizard extracts limb fragments from the bodies of a series of ancient creatures, mimicking the instinctive abilities brought about by the wild transformations of wild body-refining wizards, and artificially modifies them.

For example, the scale defense that Green gained from his first wild transformation is a common ability among most wild body-training wizards.

Then, the "Noki Ancient Resurrection Great Sorcery" will transplant scales of certain creatures onto humans, and then use some drugs to stimulate and neutralize them, attempting to use wisdom to unlock certain degenerate seals from ancient times in humans...

In the eyes of body-refining wizards, humans, who are gradually moving towards evolutionary intelligence, are indeed degenerating compared to their ancestors from the ancient, unknown period.

Moreover, it has degenerated beyond recognition.

In short, after reading this part of the experiment diary, Green felt that the wizard had probably become a deranged and obsessive freak.

Furthermore, the diary entries are interrupted for about 1,500 years, suggesting that the wizard had some new research ideas and had advanced to the level of a second-level wizard.

Fifteen hundred years later.

"I can't break the rules of the Holy Tower, otherwise I won't be able to enter the Dawn of Wisdom. So... if I could conduct a grafting experiment on a dark wizard and myself, I wouldn't break the rules of the Holy Tower. Yes, that's it!"

Green rubbed his temples.

This old wizard had actually conducted nearly four thousand years of experimental research. After advancing to the second-tier wizard level, he risked his life to go to the Dark Domain to hunt down a black wizard.

It's important to understand that if the Wizarding Continent is a treasure trove shrouded in the shadow of demon hunters for dark wizards, then the Dark Domain is a worthless hell in the eyes of elemental wizards.

And this guy actually went on a crazy hunt for a black wizard in the Dark Domain?

Sure enough, he was already on the verge of a madman. Green picked up his lab journal and continued reading.

"I will succeed, I definitely will! Yes, it feels amazing right now. After I implanted the first layer of the evolution system into that despicable dark wizard who was not protected by the rules of the Holy Tower, his reproductive cells have been grafted over and successfully fused with me. This feeling, it's as if all my cells are awakening, this feeling..."

Ok?

Green was breathing rapidly as he quickly flipped through his lab log.

Could it be that this wizard has really made some progress, able to use external forces to activate his wild instincts and revert to ancestral evolution, achieving some breakthroughs for human body-training wizards?

"What kind of world is this? Why has the wizarding world become like this? Why have I become like this...?"

"No, don't do this!"

"god……"

Green shook his head in disappointment. This wizard had clearly gone mad, attributing the failed experiments to divine punishment.

He was no longer a wizard.

Finally, what caught Green's attention were two distorted symbols on the blank pages of the notebook. Green wasn't sure if they were some kind of writing, but they seemed to be messages left by the wizard during his final conscious phase.

Closing his experimental journal, Green looked at the tiny metal witch beside him.

The metal figure said with a hint of sadness, "Everything within the sealed space of this magical artifact can be yours. I only ask that you remove the aura of human despair from this teapot-sealed magical artifact so that I can protect the inheritance from being lost."

Green understood what she meant.

It was to make her kill that "thing" in the teapot, which had already taken on an unknown form, that was the predecessor of her mentor.

Green said in a deep voice, "Okay, but I need to recuperate from my injuries and also learn more about the situation inside this spatial sealed artifact."
