Wizard's Journey

Chapter 628 Hunting Target (Part Two)

In the sky, on the back of a giant bird.

A level two wizard led eight wizard apprentices and flew swiftly toward the Nine-Headed Wrath Academy, their shadows on the ground flashing by.

The wizard's apprentice stood behind him, whispering among himself.

"Gilgus, you've participated in the most wars against the Nine-Headed Wrath Academy. The Holy Tower Qualifying War is just around the corner. Are there any noteworthy wizard apprentices over there?"

Gilgeous, one of the three strongest wizarding apprentices at the Shadow Thousand Eyes Wizarding Academy since the death of Skybreaker seventy years ago, is known as the Explosive Maniac.

Wearing a pair of black aviator sunglasses, Gilges always had a big smile on his round little face, revealing a missing front tooth, and a small black goatee on his chin had an indescribable charm.

During the Academy Wars, wizard apprentices from both academies would often fight to the death within the city, while the outside was heavily guarded by official wizards, making it extremely dangerous. This greatly increased the friction in the life-or-death battles between the wizard apprentices of both academies, giving them a vague understanding of each other's strongest warriors.

"Haha, boom... Don't underestimate Nine-Headed Wrath Academy. In recent years, they've produced some formidable ace wizard apprentices. Besides Starlight, Storm Howl, and Demon Bonehead, who have already made a name for themselves in the previous academy wars, I also discovered a few very troublesome guys in the last academy war. They all came from Nine-Headed Wrath Academy in recent years..."

Gilges flicked a fiery red bead with his thumb and caught it again.

"I heard that a very remarkable instructor came to that academy. He has a very high level of wizarding knowledge and has trained so many powerful and difficult wizard apprentices. Of course, the vast majority of wizard apprentices there are relatively weak, below the academy's average level. I suppose that instructor can only teach the most elite wizard apprentices."

Beside Giggs, another witch apprentice nodded, as if recalling something.

"I fought Storm Howl thirty years ago. He was indeed ridiculously strong back then. Orianna, Zhebilin, and I barely escaped with our lives. But during the last academy war, I heard that the strongest wizard apprentice recognized over there has emerged, surpassing all the established wizard apprentices. He intends to sweep all the wizard apprentices of his cohort in this Holy Tower qualification battle and become the pinnacle."

Meiya, Orianna, and Zhebilin barely escaped with their lives from Stormroar's attacks...

Just how strong is this guy?!

But the Nine-Headed Wrath Wizard Academy gave birth to an even more terrifying monster, who overwhelmed and defeated Starlight, Storm Roar, Demon Bonehead, and all those hidden and powerful wizard apprentices. Just thinking about it makes one feel the terror of this wizard apprentice.

Being able to work alongside the explosive maniac Gilgos, the numerous wizard apprentices on the giant bird are all elite wizard apprentices from the Shadow Thousand Eyes Academy, and are expected to qualify for the Holy Tower Qualifying Battle to become prospective demon hunter wizards.

"Nine-Headed Star! I heard about that person from a Nine-Headed Wrath Academy wizard apprentice I killed ten years ago. The Nine-Headed Star is known as a legendary wizard apprentice who surpasses all ace wizard apprentices. Generally speaking, each wizarding academy often takes hundreds of years to produce such a powerful wizard apprentice. The wizard apprentice Sky-Supporting Bone Head from Shadow Thousand Eyes Academy, who was most likely to grow to that level, was killed by a formal wizard from Nine-Headed Wrath seventy years ago."

The last of the eight wizard apprentices spoke in a low, cold voice.

From his voice, everyone could hear the solemnity and worry in his voice. Clearly, this Nine-Headed Star was a real wizard apprentice, and very likely the ace wizard apprentice among ace wizards that the Nine-Headed Wrath Academy had been cultivating with all its might!

"well……"

During a private chat among several wizard apprentices, the second-level wizard at the front suddenly sighed.

"Compared to these wizarding apprentices you're talking about, the tutor at Nine-Headed Wrath Academy who produces so many elite wizarding apprentices is truly terrifying!"

The wizard interrupted, and the wizard apprentices exchanged glances, unsure of what to say.

The knowledge of wizard apprentices is generally limited to that of other wizard apprentices; the affairs of formal wizards are simply not something they can concern themselves with.

Or rather, caring is useless.

"The mentor you're talking about is a disciple of one of the deans of the Nine-Headed Wrath Academy, an elite demon hunter dark wizard of the Seven Rings Holy Tower, known as the 'Hidden One Who Kills the Hidden Ones,' the ace among demon hunter wizards. Over the decades, he has killed two deans of the Shadow Thousand Eyes Academy, nine second-level wizards, and roughly thirty or more full-fledged wizards!"

Upon hearing of such a feat, the wizard apprentices couldn't help but gasp in astonishment. Some were filled with fear, while others looked on with longing and anticipation.

The second-level wizard didn't say...

Through the academy's spies, the Shadow Thousand Eyes Academy has confirmed that the wizard who launched the surprise attack on the Wizard Tower was none other than Green, the secret agent from the Nine-Headed Wrath Academy!

In response to this hidden figure, the Shadow Thousand Eyes Academy even convened a special wizarding conference, which led to changes in the entire academy's war strategy.

It turned out to be a demon hunter wizard who crossed over from the Seventh Ring Holy Tower, and even more so, an ace among demon hunter wizards. Such a wizard who specializes in killing is truly terrifying.

He brought his killing instincts from his experiences in other worlds to the academy wars in the wizarding world!

"Hehehe, young master, I'm getting embarrassed if I keep listening!"

As the second-level wizard was marveling atop the giant bird, a lewd laugh suddenly came from beside him, startling both the wizard and the eight wizard apprentices on the bird's back, who had previously only heard the sound of the giant bird flapping its wings and cutting through the air.

"who!"

The moment the second-level official wizard asked "who," he felt a ripple in the air followed by an incredibly sharp pain in his neck, as if something sharp had swiftly sliced ​​through it.

With his eyes wide open, almost without thinking, the wizard activated his elemental body. With a "whoosh," his body transformed into an arc of lightning and reassembled dozens of meters away, narrowly escaping death.

Crackling sounds!

As expected, the Grimm element teleported over, and the black arc of electricity tore, absorbed, and distorted the light within a hundred-meter radius, striking the second-level wizard squarely in the chest. Without uttering a sound, the second-level wizard was annihilated by the power of annihilation.

"Ah, Master..."

"Run!"

The numerous wizard apprentices on the giant bird's back stared in terror at the suddenly appearing, mysterious, and powerful wizard—or rather, the mysterious wizard they had yet to see.

Master Mizron, who was leading eight wizard apprentices on a mission to fight the war at the academy, was killed in an instant without any ability to resist.

"A distorted magnetic field!"

Amidst the calm voice, the eight terrified wizard apprentices and the giant bird that enslaved their souls stiffened, then with a "poof," they were torn to pieces, becoming monstrous tentacles that devoured each other's limbs, and fell from the sky.
