Wizard Immortality.

Chapter 21 The Wizard Family | Attack

Vic did not respond.

He took out two fine-quality gold rings and placed them on the table, saying coldly, "Here are two gold rings; that's enough to settle the debt."

Anthony was surprised that the other party still remembered the twenty soul stones.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say.

If he were to back down, this eccentric alchemist would certainly not give him a pleasant look.

I might as well accept it.

"Thank you, Master."

After receiving the ring, Anthony, who had managed the trading market for many years, could immediately recognize its extraordinary nature.

Excellent quality.

No.

It's even better than a fine-quality gold-plated ring.

He looked up at Vic, and the resentment he felt after negotiating the terms was somewhat soothed by the sight.

They are capable of producing rings of this quality.

This alchemist named Archie is far more skilled than the previous venerable one in the family.

From this perspective, the price offered by the other party is reasonable.

What Anthony was thinking.

Everything was within Vic's calculations, which is why he took out the two rings to settle the debt.

Alone and far from home.

Only by combining kindness and severity can we minimize the creation of enemies while extracting more benefits.

Vic didn't intend to linger at Mirror Lake. He stood up and said, "Take me to your family."

As they were talking.

He glanced at the knight Mather beside him out of the corner of his eye.

His cold gaze was like a chilling wind.

The wind made Mather tremble.

When he turned his head and met Vic's gaze, he thought to himself, "Oh no! Could it be that he's thinking of..."

The facts were as he expected.

After standing up, Vic gave a strange smile to his ugly face, pointed at Mather and said, "Your family knight is quite good. I admire him. Take him with you."

Anthony certainly wouldn't care about what a Cavalier thinks.

But Mather only felt a chill run down his spine.

For the past two weeks, he has been serving Vic, and he has been walking on thin ice every day, unable to sleep well.

He was secretly cheering just now.

Finally, we saw this great guy off.

it's good now.

The other party specifically requested him.

It's like a persistent ghost.

After returning to the family, heaven knows how long I'll have to serve them.

Mather was in so much pain that he almost cried.

He was just an ordinary family knight, but how could he be so unlucky?

The Bell family's territory is located 300 kilometers south of the Mirror Lake Trading Market.

This is the secular region of the Principality Alliance.

Although the three great wizarding families rarely concern themselves with worldly affairs, and the Alliance Council dominates everything in the region, their status remains aloof.

The Bell family's territory is located in the Dragon Lizard Hills.

They have been rooted and multiplied for over three hundred years.

The clan has two first-level wizards in charge.

Six senior apprentices.

There are more than ten apprentices.

The most powerful wizarding families in the Duchy Alliance region.

On the road.

Anthony gave Vic a brief overview of the other two rival families.

The Carter family and the Ross family each have a first-level wizard in charge.

They are also regional allies, forming an alliance to counter the Bell family.

For many years, the three forces coexisted peacefully, but ten years ago, the Carter family produced a new first-class wizard.

Completely disrupting the balance.

Not only does it intend to annex the Ross family, but it has also been in a state of war with the Bell family.

The war between them.

Vic wasn't interested.

He only cares about Soul Stones and Knowledge.

Several days later.

It's been raining continuously.

Vic and Anthony encountered a team of wizards sent by the Bell family to meet them at the border of the Dragon Lizard Hills.

A senior apprentice led the team.

Two apprentices accompanied him.

There are also six formidable guard knights.

Vic sat in the carriage with his eyes closed, resting and extracting knowledge from the lich's life box to increase the energy density of his spiritual body and slowly improve his strength.

After getting out of the car, Anthony exchanged a few words with an elderly man.

Then.

The old man strode to the carriage and said respectfully, "Lord Archie, I am Dylan Bell, a senior apprentice. From now on, I will be responsible for escorting you back to your family."

Anthony also spoke from outside the car.

"Master Archie, I'm very busy at the trading market, so I won't see you off any further."

Vic nodded slightly in response.

The old man outside the carriage was very old, wearing a scarlet wizard's robe like Anthony's. He was emaciated, with sunken eyes and brittle hair.

The latest novel is first published here!

He gave Vic a careful look.

His brows furrowed slightly.

Anthony lacked foresight and couldn't see anything amiss.

He could tell that Vic's current appearance and physique were clearly the result of modifications to his muscles and bones.

But the old man did not expose him.

He didn't care about the other party's background as long as their identity as an alchemist was genuine.

The Bell family is currently at war, so it's perfectly reasonable for them to send someone to escort the alchemist they worship, and Vic wouldn't suspect anything.

The Dragon Lizard Hills have a complex topography.

On a rainy day.

The grass was slippery, making it difficult for the carriage to move forward.

The trees on both sides were hidden in a thin white mist.

Occasionally, you can hear the deep roars and howls of dragon lizards during their courtship.

Although the only sounds outside the car window were the quiet rain and the clatter of horses' hooves, Vik remained vigilant.

Since the Bell family sent people to escort them, it's possible that the fact that they recruited an alchemist has already been leaked.

There is a high probability that we will be ambushed by the enemy family on the way.

If the enemy is too powerful, Vic won't risk his life for a few offerings; self-preservation is the right way.

But if the enemy is not strong, and you insist on cutting off their source of income.

When necessary, Vic will naturally take action.

Not long after.

The sound of galloping hooves could be heard from not far away.

The old wizard Dylan Bell roared furiously.

"It's the Carter family! Accelerate, shake them off!"

Apprentices cannot fly, so warhorses are the best means of transportation.

at the same time.

Another strong voice reached Vic's ears.

"Alchemist in the carriage! If you leave now, we won't make things difficult for you. But if you insist on helping the Bell family, don't blame us for showing no mercy!"

Wizards are pragmatic.

The threat of language is weak and ineffective.

Vic won't change his mind because of a few words.

They wanted to undermine his intentions.

Either pay more, or we'll fight bloodshed.

Compared to the Bell family's attitude, the Carter family seemed much more naive, resorting to threats at the drop of a hat, with no regard for their own interests.

Vic snorted coldly.

A hoarse, strange voice came through the car window to the ears of senior apprentice Dylan Bell.

"I won't change my mind for now; you should continue on your way."

In fact, the Bell family was also worried that Vic might change his mind and join the alliance between the Carter and Ross families.

Because helping the strong carries little risk, while helping the weak carries a greater risk.

Dylan Bell was not a newcomer to the wizarding world.

He knew what Vic meant by that.

The alchemist wanted to use this incident to test the family's strength.

But this kind of thinking is only natural.

Their relationship is purely professional; it's impossible for them to fight to the death with rival families for their sake.

but.

From another perspective.
