Wizard's Journey

Chapter 307 Setting Off to Conquer the Nest World (Part 2)

Unsurprisingly.

Of the seven, apart from two demon hunters whom Green had never seen before and who were unaware of the situation, the other five all walked towards Green on their own initiative.

The other two, somewhat bewildered, followed and looked at Green.

The seven people, each wearing a wizard's veil, all bore the mark of a medal of honor.

The strongest demon hunter dark wizard was naturally the Three Pepper Ghost. Under the dazzling and bright fluctuations of the Level 2 Honor Medal, demon hunter wizards nearby were secretly spying on him from time to time. Even when the command headquarters distributed the Zero Boundary Stones just now, their attitude was very different.

The other two besides the Three Pepper Demons, the witch Kuyak, the wife of Lokiru with her pale white bone armor, and Gabil, the senior from the Black Sota Academy in Green, each had two Level 3 Honor Badges, radiating astonishing energy.

The remaining four all have a third-class medal of honor.

"Green! You bastard, if you hadn't plotted against me two hundred years ago..."

The most excited person was actually Grimm's senior from the Black Tower Wizarding Academy, Gabil.

At this moment, he pointed at Green and roared loudly. In his excitement, the crocodile tail under his wizard robe slammed into the metal floor of the fortress with a "thud," producing a piercing sound like metal scraping against metal. The terrifying power was extremely astonishing.

The situation here quickly attracted the attention of other dark wizards in the vicinity.

Some powerful figures sneered and stood still to watch without caring, while others, with their cold nature, moved a little further away, completely ignoring everything that was happening.

"Huh? Is that the same Green from Black Tower Wizarding Academy who defeated the Three Pepper Demon and caused all seven of us to fail our demon-hunting mission?"

Just as Gabil finished roaring, the two previously clueless demon hunters suddenly realized what was going on. One of the male demon hunters looked at Green with curiosity, as if he had seen a treasure.

The male witch hunter was dressed in a typical dark wizard outfit, looking quite ordinary and unremarkable.

The other female witch hunter, whose identity was initially unknown, resembled an old witch covered in black pustules and scars.

When the witch learned that Green was actually the "legendary" witch hunter from two hundred years ago, she couldn't help but laugh gleefully. Some food crumbs remained in her metal dentures, making her feel extremely disgusted.

"Heh heh, well done!"

After the old witch finished speaking, she gave Kuyak a cold and vicious glance.

Two hundred years ago, it was Kuyak who tricked these two people away from Hattori's escape route, so that the Demon Hunter missions didn't involve these two people at all.

On the other hand, Green, who saw the seven people, felt immense pain and disgust.

The pain stemmed from the fact that upon seeing the seven people, Green, who had already recovered from the grief of Raffi's tragic death, couldn't help but recall that desperate scene again, causing a pang of sorrow and bitterness to well up in his heart.

The resentment stemmed from the fact that although Raffi's death was unrelated to the seven demon hunters before him, the culprit, the black wizard Hattori Mizo, was dead, and the demon hunting record was beyond Green's control. Naturally, his resentment was directed at these seven people.

Or rather, it's about these five people.

Although they are innocent in essence.

Before Green could even speak in response to Gabil's accusations, the myna bird was jolted awake from its drowsy slumber. It then bristled like a fighting rooster, pointing one wing at Gabil and croaking and cursing in a hoarse, duck-like voice.

"Gah! Your Eighth Grandpa pooped all over your face! It's all because of you, you bastard, that I had nightmares for three days straight, couldn't sleep well, and developed a phobia of watermelons! I..."

The myna bird was extremely excited, which left the furious Gabila somewhat bewildered.

Indeed, the tragic death of Lafite left the myna bird listless for several days, and it took several days for the pain to subside. However, it developed a strange illness that prevented it from ever eating watermelon again.

Green sneered and faced Gabil, saying, "She was the one who plotted against you, and he was the one who stopped you, you fool."

Green pointed at Kuyak and the witch hunter whose robes were ablaze, and said sarcastically.

Kuyak's long golden hair flowed freely, and his fair and pure face remained unconcerned about the gazes of the old witch and Green beside him. He simply stood quietly next to Lokiru, appearing wise and profound.

Lokiru was covered in white bone armor, and the three-headed dog fairy lay at his feet, not saying a word, and even his eyes were no longer on them.

As for the witch hunter whose robes were ablaze, he actually snorted and chuckled smugly!

"you……"

After his initial anger subsided, Gabi Lie turned to Sanjiao Gui and suddenly changed the subject, saying, "Hmph, you should be the angrier one, right? Even if I had rushed over there, I would have only had a 20% chance of success at most."

Its cold eyes emitted a dark red glow, a gray flame flickered above its head, and five new skull rings were once again placed on its withered five hands. Its hunched body leaned on a new magic staff made from the spine of an unknown animal. The Three-Pepper Demon had been watching Green for a long time.

After glancing at Gabil, the Three-Pepper Demon said grimly, "I can't bear the responsibility for harming other demon hunter wizards during the expedition. Hmph, but... that master who was overseeing the demon hunter achievements has already developed a strong interest in him."

The Three-Pepper Demon turned its gaze to Green and sneered, "Heh heh, I'm sure after this Demon Hunting Expedition ends, that proctor will personally reward you with a mission to join the Demon Hunting campaign. At that time... true terror awaits you!"

creak, creak...

The three-pepper demon's withered hands clenched so tightly in his spinal magic staff that his large, bony knuckles creaked, revealing his inner rage.

Not only Gabiel, but the other demon hunters also looked at Grin expectantly, because everyone knew what price the Three-Pepper Demon had paid for the right to use the Key of Friendship of the Holy Mark in Kuyak's hands.

Green's eyes were also fixed on the Three-Pepper Demon, his initial disgust turning into...

Appreciate yourself?

Give yourself the opportunity to complete the Demon Hunter achievement mission?

Beneath the veneer of truth, a hint of undisguised mockery and contempt flickered in Green's eyes.

In the eyes of other demon hunter dark wizards, joining the demon hunter ranks is equivalent to having one's demon hunter career recognized by the wizarding world, just like qualifying for the Holy Tower for wizard apprentices and becoming a prospective demon hunter wizard.

But in Green's view, joining the Demon Hunter campaign was a deep-seated aversion, even disgust.

And the three-pepper demon in front of him actually wanted to retaliate by ruining his demon-hunting achievements.

How pathetic how utterly ignorant they are!

Beneath the mask of truth, a disdainful smile played on his lips as Grimm turned and left. The myna, however, remained perched on Grimm's shoulder, its hoarse, duck-like voice snarling and cursing at Gabila like a fighting cock.

"Hmph, I thought there would be a good show." A level two demon hunter dark wizard muttered to himself and then curled his lip.

The other dark wizards also looked disappointed, quite displeased with Green's "cowardly" behavior.

At this time, they had not left the wizarding world, so it was not during the Demon Hunting Expedition. Although the fight between dark wizards at this time violated some rules, as long as it did not cause any damage, it would at most be a little witch spirit punishment warning.

Clearly, even if a mere level one demon hunter wanted to cause any damage on the Origin Space Fortress, he would be powerless. Yet this guy simply turned around and left.

To most people, this was clearly Green's cowardice.

Three-Pepper Ghost let out a cold snort, but looked even more indignant, staring intently at Green's slowly departing figure.

Green stopped about 100 meters away from the seven people, standing calmly and composed.

Mynah still looked annoyed, cursing, "Damn it, this is infuriating! Young Master, tell me when have I ever been this angry? Hmm... except with you."

Green glared at the myna bird, said nothing, and waited silently.

As teams of demon hunters, both light and dark, arrived at the fortress plaza, the light wizards entered the fortress base, while the dark wizards remained on the plaza.

One by one, the mechanical bees that had completed their missions entered the space fortress base along with the last space airship to enter the fortress.

Click!

Suddenly, a dark gash appeared in the calm sky above the fortress.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

One by one, dots of light, more than a hundred figures of unrestrained forms flew out of the black crack and quickly landed on the Origin Space Fortress Plaza. Most of them went directly into the base of the space fortress, while a small number remained on the flat plaza.

These are all level three Grand Wizards from the Seven Rings Holy Tower, and their aura and pressure are significantly higher than those of level one and level two Demon Hunter Wizards.

"Well, even though there are more wizards than during the last expedition to the Shadow Mystery World, the fortress is much larger, so it's not as ridiculously crowded as it was last time. I wonder how the Stigmata Wizards are being arranged for this Demon Hunting Expedition."

Grimm and the other witch hunters looked on with great anticipation as they continued to peer into the dark rift.

After a while, a dark figure slowly appeared at the other end of the dark rift, looking towards the Wizarding World Space Fortress.

Only one Stigmata Wizard?

Stunned, the many demon hunters muttered to themselves in astonishment.

Because most demon-hunting expeditions require two or even three demon-hunting wizards to complete together, but now only one holy mark wizard has been spotted.

The crowd couldn't help but secretly speculate whether this expedition was to some special, low-level world, or whether this Saint Mark Wizard was one of those extremely powerful legendary old guys...

Green suddenly jolted, startling even the myna bird on his shoulder, interrupting its continued grumbling.

Incredulous disbelief, Grimm exclaimed in shock and horror, "This...this...this...such a repressive, cold, and violent aura...this is the Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard!?"

I'm returning to SJZ from XJ tomorrow, and I have some things to take care of, so I can only try to maintain a consistent update schedule of one chapter per day for the first ten days of March, resuming updates in the latter half of the month. If there's an unavoidable hiatus, I'll make up for it with three chapters in the latter half of the month.
