Wizard's Journey

Chapter 312 The Ice Field on the Surface (Part 3)

On one side, the busy Ming Wizard formation was carrying out battle deployment under the command of the combat headquarters.

A legion of soul slave monsters, under the command of the Ming Wizard Legion, surged into the entrance to the World Nest like a tidal wave.

On the other side, over three hundred elite dark wizards surrounded the Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard, awaiting orders for a special mission.

Crunch, crunch, crunch...

The surrounding space continued to collapse and crumble, while the outermost space was distorted. The figure of the Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard at the center of the chaotic space was blurred, and a black-robed phantom carrying a huge book could be barely seen in the distorted space.

This caused most of the demon hunters who were seeing the Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard for the first time to hold their breath and involuntarily gasp.

The Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard before me, though a Level 6 Grand Wizard, is probably already infinitely close to a Level 7 True Spirit Wizard. He is one of the most powerful absolute experts below the Level 7 True Spirit Wizard in the wizarding world.

If, in the years to come, this great wizard truly succeeds in taking this step...

I am afraid……

The Wizarding Continent is about to begin the construction and development quest for the Eighth Ring Holy Tower.

"Hehehe, little ones, your task is to explore all the entrances to the entire World Nest and mark them with my Blacklink Mark. Each new World Nest entrance discovered will earn you one Witch Essence, with no upper limit. The one who explores the most will receive a Level 2 Honor Badge, and the second and third place winners will each receive a Level 3 Honor Badge."

Medal of Honor, Second Class!

The eyes of the many demon hunters lit up, and their breath caught in their throats.

It is extremely rare for a Level 2 Medal of Honor to be awarded with a specific mission in mind, a situation that is bound to occur in this mission world.

If too many honor medals are awarded during an expedition to a world, the Holy Tower will take up a larger proportion of the Holy Mark Wizard's benefits, which is something no Holy Mark Wizard wants to see.

Therefore, every Holy Mark Wizard who ventures into foreign lands will do everything in their power to eliminate the conditions for generating a Level 1 Honor Badge, and at the same time try their best to avoid generating a Level 2 Honor Badge, so as to maximize their gains from this demon-hunting expedition.

Who would have thought that this Black Sota Stigmata Wizard would actually issue a special mission with a reward of the highest level two honor medal.

Moreover, the difficulty of this task is clearly of an extremely low level.

"What's going on? Does the Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard not care about the profits from this world, and is just in a hurry?"

Green kept guessing in his mind, but his actions were not slow at all. Together with the many elite demon hunter dark wizards around him, he took out his own magical artifact.

"Hehe, young master, our chance has come! A second-class medal of honor! Hehehehe..."

The eyes of the demon hunters standing nearby nearly popped out when they saw Green pull out a three-meter-diameter spherical flying vehicle called the Shadow Starfall from the dimensional gap.

This……

The value of this magical vehicle far exceeds that of the mechanical bee by hundreds of times!

Generally speaking, even a true Shadow Wizard wouldn't accumulate enough Wizard Essence to buy a private Shadow Meteor; instead, it would be provided by a Demon Hunter during their term of office.

But this Green...

No wonder he was personally named by the great level six Saint Mark Archmage of Black Sota!

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

The numerous demon hunters acted swiftly. A few breaths after the Black Tower Saint Mark Wizard issued the special mission, they all vanished from their spots, turning into hundreds of afterimages and shooting away in all directions.

These are all elite wizards among the Demon Hunter Dark Wizards.

"well……"

Inside the Shadow Starfall vehicle, the Wizarding Machine, Green let out a sigh.

The Shadow Starfall spacecraft was extremely fast. Inside, Grimm and Myna seemed to be in a bubble, scanning the ice plains of the Nest World as the spacecraft passed without any blind spots.

However, at this moment, Green couldn't help but sigh.

"Huh? My dear, great Young Master Grin, what's wrong?"

The myna bird, who was searching for the entrance to the World's Nest with Grimm in the Spyfall movie, couldn't help but ask in surprise after hearing Grimm's sigh.

"There's no hope for the Medal of Honor this time."

Shaking his head, Green slowly said, "While the Shadow Starfall spacecraft is precious, its value lies in its ability to traverse the void and its astonishing top speed. However, to reach the Shadow Starfall's top speed, it would require more than a dozen months of continuous, full-speed acceleration. This is clearly impossible for us, who need to travel and stop frequently to mark the entrance to the World Nest."

It's no wonder Green is so pessimistic.

On the one hand, considering the world situation of this mission, when traveling within the confines of such a small world, the Shadow Meteor is clearly not as suitable as a constant high-speed aircraft like the Mechanical Bee.

Among the many demon hunters and dark wizards, quite a few of them used magical artifacts that were constant high-speed flying vehicles similar to mechanical bees.

On the other hand, Green was astonished to discover that some of the Dark Wizards themselves were flying at speeds far exceeding those of the magical artifacts used by other Dark Wizards!

Among these demon hunter wizards, the vast majority are skilled in light element energy magic, while a small number are masters of wind element energy magic.

During a brief observation, Green discovered that the initial flight speed of his Shadow Meteor was only at a medium level among many Demon Hunter Dark Wizards.

Green's claim of being "very fast" was only relative to his previous flying speed.

Compared to the numerous elite demon hunters and dark wizards they had just encountered, Grimm was utterly insignificant.

Clearly, flight speed is one of the fundamental conditions related to the number of World Nest entrances that can be found.

Half an hourglass time later.

"Hmm? Let's go down and investigate if this cave entrance is the entrance to the World's Nest."

Having made some discoveries, Green brought the Shadow Starfall to a stop, and after the hatch opened, he slowly descended into the hole, which was only a little over ten meters in diameter.

Not all the openings on the surface ice sheet connect to the World Nest.

Some of the cave entrances were formed naturally after geological movements, and were not dug by snow worms, who are almost like the "creators" of the nest world, connecting to the world's nest.

Another part is that as the activity of snow nematodes decreased, the ice and snow on the surface of the ice sheet refilled and sealed its interior.

The Shadow Starfall fell steadily into the cave entrance, while the phantom of the Blood Terror Doll circled around it, emitting unsettling and terrifying laughter.

Green was delighted as a large swarm of snow worms, startled by the fall of the Spy Star, fled into the cave.

That's right, this is indeed an entrance to a World Nest, and I've obtained a Witch Essence!

however……

"Hehehe, Grin? Sorry, I discovered the entrance to this World Nest first."

Deep within the cave, a level-three archmage surrounded by a purple hurricane chuckled at Grimm, his eyes burning like ghostly flames. Before him, the Black Chain Mark slowly unleashed pure black energy threads, seemingly weaving a giant magical net to seal the cave's exit!

"Huh!? Looks like I'm a step too late..."

The myna bird, perched on Green's shoulder, was startled by the sudden appearance of the demon hunter deep within the cave. After understanding what was happening, it said regretfully.

Beneath the surface of truth, Grimm's face was extremely grim. After withdrawing the Black Chain Mark and performing the wizard's ritual, he said awkwardly, "Excuse me."

After hastily departing, Green, once again piloting the Shadow Starfall high in the sky, couldn't help but lament, "Just a little bit short. Clearly, he was only a little too early."

However, judging from the black magic circle woven from the Black Seal mark of the demon hunter wizard, Green's energy level was only enough to intimidate creatures below level one.

However, it was the subtle spatial power within that caught Green's attention.

Could it be that these black-tethered markings weave a web that, at certain times, allows the Black-Tethered Saint Mark Wizard to personally descend?

However, even if hundreds of elite demon hunter dark wizards could only find a part of the entrance to this world's nest, they had no idea that there were thousands or tens of thousands of entrances. How could the Black Tower Saint Mark Wizard possibly block them all?

Mynah, however, said angrily, "Young Master! I think we should use the Shadow Meteor to fly for a few months first, to unleash its higher speed and leave the other demon hunter wizards behind, and then we can search for the entrance to the World's Nest with peace of mind."

Uh?

Green's eyes lit up, and he looked at the myna bird in astonishment. This was a good idea!

Thus, Green couldn't help but joke, "Looks like you've recently learned to use your intelligence, huh? Here, take it, it's a reward for you."

Green tossed a magic essence to the myna, which the myna happily snatched in its mouth and stored in the dimensional rift, chuckling mischievously, "Hehe, my old master used to be wise beyond his years. How could mortals possibly fathom the wisdom of a great steel-emblemed myna?"

In the past, if Bage had dared to mention "Master Bage" in front of Green, he would have been slapped into a dimensional rift by Green long ago.

However, at this point, thanks to the companionship of the myna bird during their century of painful and lonely imprisonment, their feelings for each other had been completely elevated, and they no longer minded.

In a flash, the Shadow Starfall sped faster and faster, flying straight towards the distant ice plains of the Nest World without stopping at some cave entrances.

I estimate it won't be until the 15th. Updates will resume today or tomorrow; if they resume today, the second chapter will be a bit later.
