Chapter 19: The Apprentice of a Witch with Faith

A month later.

Li Beiwang returned to the bazaar of the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy.

"It looks depressed."

"There's a lot less crowding."

He walked down the street, looking at a wizard apprentice who hurried by, his face unchanged.

Compared to two months ago.

The flow of people in the bazaar is half as low.

This also made him secretly frightened.

How many wizard apprentices in the bazaar mutated into monsters during the Red Sun and were then purified?

"Sure enough, wizards are all ruthless people."

"And the wild cultivators, in the eyes of those wizarding organizations, I'm afraid they are just leeks."

"Even at the beginning of the red sun, the ban on meditation was spread so that the leeks would not break their roots......"

"Harvesting once every 100 years is cruel and bloody."

"The wizard's world is dangerous everywhere."

He muttered to himself, becoming more and more vigilant.

I have repeatedly reminded myself to act more cautiously and steadily in the future, and never to waste.

His life span is endless, as long as he keeps living, he will one day be invincible in the world.

He turned left and right in the bazaar, and soon came to the gathering place of the spark.

Today is November 3rd, and it is the day of the Spark Gathering.

He was going to find out the news first.

Living in the bazaar is a natural matter of safety and listening.

"Mitchell, you're here."

"I'm relieved to see you're safe and sound."

Seeing Li Beiwang coming in, Harold spoke, but his voice was extremely low:

"Another good friend of mine, who didn't leave the bazaar in time, was polluted and turned into a monster, and was captured by a third-level wizard apprentice from the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy."

Li Beiwang was stunned.

Captured?

Didn't decontaminate on the spot?

He glanced at the twelve members of the room, except for Harold, and everyone had a bad look on their faces.

However, the Palmer Wizard Apprentice who had reminded them to leave the bazaar was not there.

He guessed that the other party, as a real student of the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy, might still be busy.

"How many apprentices in the bazaar have mutated into monsters?"

He asked, sitting in his place.

"A lot."

"As far as I know, at least more than five hundred."

"But fortunately, three other official wizards from the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy have come to suppress and take away all the monsters."

Li Beiwang had seen it once, and the female wizard apprentice named 'Joanna' had palpitations.

She didn't show up at that meeting two months ago.

So he didn't get Palmer's warning, and left the bazaar.

She stayed in the bazaar and almost died twice.

From the bottom of her heart, she thanked the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy.

If it weren't for the fact that there were three more official wizards from the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy, plus one official wizard from the original bazaar, who suppressed all the monsters with the power of four official wizards, she felt that she might not be alive now.

Those monsters are terrible.

As long as the distance is not far, there is a risk of contamination.

Fortunately, there were no tainted monsters of third-level wizard apprentices in her vicinity from beginning to end.

And the monster formed by the contamination of the second-level wizard apprentice appeared near her, and as a second-level wizard apprentice, although she couldn't last long, she was far enough away.

"Five hundred!"

Li Beiwang was awe-inspiring in his heart.

The Flame Serpent's Tail Academy is really ruthless, and has directly harvested more than five hundred wizard apprentices.

To become a wizard apprentice, anyone has wizard qualifications.

And wizard qualifications-

It is an extremely rare qualification.

If you don't count the inheritance of the wizard bloodline, it is difficult to have one in 100,000 ordinary people.

Just like the seventeenth elementary world he was born in, a person with wizard qualifications was born, and even the king of the kingdom would send someone to congratulate him.

And now—

But more than 500 wizard apprentices died at once!

"And that's just the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy's bazaar."

"The cities of the Ters Holy Empire, the bazaars opened by the rest of the wizard organizations......"

"In the entire Tess Holy Empire, the number of wizard apprentices who died during the Red Sun is probably extremely terrifying."

"As for ordinary people, the death must be even more tragic......"

He whispered in his heart.

The effect of the spirit crystal is too strong.

No wizarding organization can resist this temptation.

But—

Why did the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy capture the monster back?

Is it to prevent the secrets of the spirit crystal from being revealed?

He thinks it's possible.

If the spirit crystal is known to the wild cultivators, it will inevitably go crazy.

Those wizard organizations will have a lot of trouble when they cut leeks.

Moreover, spirit crystals are definitely an extremely important resource, and those wizarding organizations will not allow the outside world to have them.

"A great wizard once said that if you want to be strong, be prepared to step on the bones of a lot of corpses, kindness is a good quality, but weak wizards don't need it."

He thought of these words and his heart was silent.

"Alright, let's not talk about that."

"The red sun has passed, and the bazaar is returning to normal."

"We should see our weakness in this matter, so that we can do everything we can to strengthen ourselves."

Harold spoke.

Everyone nodded.

They calm down, take out their knowledge or resources, and start trading with each other.

Li Beiwang took out the three spell templates that had been improved once: Flame Qi Shield, Boiling Blood, and Energy Light.

He is primarily knowledgeable about trading.

When it comes to resources, he doesn't value them that much.

Squeak –

At the end of the fair, when everyone was already about to leave, the door of the villa was suddenly pushed open.

The sun is shining from outside.

Two figures entered through the gate.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm very sorry, I've been busy lately, so I've delayed this gathering."

Palmer, who was walking in front, looked apologetic and made a wizarding salute to the crowd.

He was wearing a black robe inlaid with red patterns, and a crimson snake tail on his chest was very bright and lifelike.

This is the uniform of the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy, which is a demonized item.

"You're so kind, Lord Palmer."

All the wizard apprentices stood up and saluted Palmer in return.

Li Beiwang is no exception.

Palmer reminds him to leave the bazaar and avoid the most dangerous places, which is no small favor.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the grandson of an old friend of mine, who is already a full student of the academy and starts joining us today."

"Let's welcome Reynolds."

Palmer leaned over and pointed to the young man next to him, smiling.

The young man had brilliant blonde hair and was very handsome, and at this time he saluted slightly to everyone, with a sunny smile on his face:

"It's an honor to join Spark."

"It's an honor to meet you."

The crowd applauded and welcomed.

Li Beiwang's expression on his face was the same as that of everyone else, and he was also applauding gently.

But looking at this young man named 'Reynolds', he felt a little strange in his heart.

Because—

From this person, he felt a feeling similar to that of the four Holy Spirits in the kingdom of God.

That's what believers feel.

As a god, although he has no divine powers, he can still tell whether a living being belongs to a believer or not.

After all—

Believers are an important part of the gods.

Twenty-one years in the bazaar, he had seen a sorcerer's apprentice for the first time.

And it's not that kind of shallow believer, at least at the level of true believer.

"Could it be a member of the Black Sun Sect?"

He guessed in his heart.

Not sure, though.

In the Ters Holy Empire, in addition to the Black Sun Sect, there are also some other sects, but the scale is far less than that of the Black Sun Sect.

"If you are a member of the Black Sun Cult......"

"Then this person is most likely an undercover agent of the Black Sun Sect lurking in the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy......"

"Could it be that the Black Sun Sect is planning to do something to the Flame Serpent's Tail Academy?"

His face remained unchanged, but his heart was very solemn.

If that's the case—

Then he will have to consider changing to a market life organized by wizards.
