Within the territory of the Pan-Continental Wizards Alliance, Satsuma City.

According to the general rules of the mainland, Satsuma City can only be regarded as a small city, the city covers a small area, and the total population is just over 100,000, but it is the smelting center of the former sacred Venice, covering almost one-third of the entire empire's weapon casting.

Half of the 100,000 inhabitants are full-time blacksmiths, and the streets are full of shirtless, muscular men, as well as many dwarves.

It was also the seat of the former Holy Venetian Empire, the General Guild of Blacksmiths, and was home to the highest foundries in the entire empire.

The city is not big, but the role is not small, this is the true portrayal of Satsuma City, of course, similar to the formation of this kind of full-time city, naturally has its special historical background or external reasons, and Satsuma City is because of the unique geographical environment.

Satsuma City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, belonging to the intersection of the three major mountain ranges of Atlanta, there are extremely rich mineral deposits, not only there are abundant gold, silver, copper and iron ore veins, but also rich associated metals, whether it is rare mythril, pure gold and other enchanted metals, or almost the legendary black tan, dark iron are found from time to time.

Of course, it is also because it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there are many dense forests and shrubs outside Satsuma City, and it is full of all kinds of monsters.

As for reclaiming wasteland, growing food or something?

Do you need it?!

Naturally, there is a steady supply from merchants, and no matter how bad it is, the empire will send troops to transport it, as for letting these blacksmiths go to farming, isn't it a waste?

It is also based on this that in the radiating circle of Satsuma City, there are rare villages and towns that have not been established, and except for the villages with supplies in the major mining areas, the wilderness is almost inaccessible.

For hundreds of years, Warcraft and the intelligent race have also formed an invisible tacit understanding, Warcraft will not invade mining areas and cities, and intelligent life will not invade the wilderness.

Today, however, a figure breaks this convention.

This is a wizard, who is shrouded in a light wind, faintly glowing with blue light, and holds the wizard to 'jump' in the grassy wilderness, yes, jump!

The wizard's mode of movement is very peculiar, he is like a feather, every time he lands and steps hard, he will fly lightly, cross an arc, and when he slowly falls, he will step lightly again, and fly again.

The wide black cloak obscured the wizard's face, and only a white right hand sticking out of the cloak held a staff, and the faint magic fluctuations on the staff kept the 'featherfall' running.

The wizard wasn't moving fast, to be exact, he seemed to be looking for something, and with each rise and fall there was a noticeable stagnant movement, and the murmur of voices came from the cloak, as if he was chanting a spell, as if he was calculating something.

And the path he traveled was even more bizarre, sometimes straight ahead, sometimes zigzag, and even occasionally standing still, he didn't disperse the spell, just rose and fell in place, as if playing on a trampoline.

In the wilderness, dangers lurk, from time to time snakes and insects swim away, wild beasts flee, and demonic beasts hunt. Here, natural selection and survival of the fittest are the true portrayal.

However, all this has nothing to do with the wizard, he walks in the wilderness, but it seems that there is no level with the wilderness, the monsters don't seem to see the wizard, and the wizard doesn't care about the monster.

In this way, time passes slowly, from early morning, to noon, from sunset, to moonrise.

Day after day, apart from the necessary food and rest, I don't know how long the wizard walked in the wilderness and how many circles he circled around Satsuma City.

Finally, one day, he stopped.

When the spell dissipated and the wizard stood firmly on the ground, the sense of independence and the emptiness outside the world dissipated, and he slowly looked up, the sun shining under the cloak, revealing a young, pale, but equally resolute face.

Amazingly, this is exactly the Meereen who said goodbye from the Black and White Academy.

"Sure enough, the dark wizard will not give up the opportunity to harvest the power of fear, the 'Fear Nightmare Witch Array' has been constructed, and the entire Satsuma City is shrouded in the 'Fear Dream Builder'......"

"My guess is also correct, this large 'Dreaded Nightmare Witch Array' has three large nodes and thirty-six small nodes, and all of them are arranged outside the city. So, if I can do that, maybe I can get more data......"

"However, if it is discovered, or if it is found that something is wrong, and I take the initiative to stop the witch array, all my arrangements will be empty, and when the time comes, I will have to face endless pursuit......

"How do you choose? to continue? or to be more secure......

"No, it's worth it, without more dark wizards, without more data, my spells won't be perfected, adventure is a must......"

"As long as I can complete this spell, it will be the day of extinction of the dark wizards, and for this goal, even if I lose more, it will be worth it......"

As if to strengthen his faith, Meereen lowered his head again, and the black cloak turned into a shadow over his face.

With the murmur of the incantation, the light on the wand began to shine, and the cyan wind whistled, this time no longer holding up, but whistling, blowing directly into the distance.

This time, there was no calculation, no pause, but the direction was pointed and went straight to the goal.

@@@

Outside Satsuma City, at night, in a valley.

During the day, the verdant green willow trees began to wither, withered yellow, became pitch black and curved, and layers of black mist and moonlight rose up, like dark clouds covering the world, and the valley seemed to become a ghost.

After doing all this, Wag finally breathed a sigh of relief, he stared at the cloaked man not far away with his scarlet eyes, and let out a 'quack' strange smile from his mouth: "I don't care who you are? What is your background? I want you to know that this errand is mine, and this territory is also mine, no one can touch it, and if you touch it, you will die!"

Wag felt that the person in front of him had come to steal his mission, as the caretaker of a large node in the 'Dreaded Nightmare Witch Circle', he had met more than one dark wizard who wanted to fight the autumn wind.

Speaking of this position, it is indeed a rare 'fat difference', not only does it not need to engage in wind and rain, fight and kill, but also give priority to the power of fear, and a little throttling is enough to make yourself full of food and drink.

Of course, the process of Wag getting this 'fat difference' was not easy, he not only spent a lot of money to bribe the relevant high-level executives, but also assassinated three competitors to get this place.

But it was all worth it, he had only been 'guarding' here for a month, and his cultivation speed had exceeded that of a normal year, and with the massive supply of fear power, he could almost see his own growth.

He was confident that as long as he gave himself another ten years, he could even try to break through the third order, thinking about the power of the Great Wizard, his heart was hot.

Of course, before that, he had to protect his one-third of an acre.

Wag was cautious, he didn't even think much about the strength of the enemy, he opened the defensive circle here, and when the rows of ghost willows transplanted to absorb the power of fear were activated, the rich power of fear permeated, and he could mobilize these forces to amplify his spells.

The dark wizard's black magic is never free from the power of fear, and Wag is confident that even if the great wizard comes, he will be able to resist for a while, and if he has time, he can contact the wizard tower in Satsuma City and get rescue.

After all, he is a guardian recognized by the Wizarding Alliance, even if there is still some chaos in the management of the Wizarding Alliance, but as long as it is passed on, no one dares to ignore it.

However, the Cloak Man's actions left Wag a little confused.
