Gehr had never thought that the peculiar stench of this swamp could be so refreshing, even the buzzing mosquitoes and flies were so lovely in his eyes, and of course, if anyone dared to fall on him, he would naturally slap him and give him a lifelong and final memory.

The gray mist that surrounded the swamp had dissipated at some point, and the bloody sunset spread its light unhindered to every inch of the land. Gehr looked around, and the field of vision was a dreamlike blood-red, and a large flock of black birds flew in the sky out of nowhere, constantly hovering over the swamp, densely packed, like a cloud of black oppression.

"I don't want to come to this kind of place if I can. ”

Gehr looked back at the portal, watched it crumble and annihilate after a few moments, turning into countless shimmering stardust scattered away, stood for a while, straightened his clothes, checked his backpack, and made sure that the harvest was all right, before walking out of the swamp.

Following the embankment that crossed the swamp at his feet, Gehr quickly returned to the entrance to the canyon on the outskirts of the swamp.

The canyon was still dead silent, the fence at the entrance was still there, and there were more footprints on the ground near it in the direction of the outside, which seemed to be left by the apprentices who left first, but I don't know if the footprints of the two Morio who had sent some books first were inside.

However, this thought was only fleeting in Gehr's mind, and whether or not he ran into them in the future was no big deal. Speaking of which, Gehr was a little grateful for the sudden change in the ruins, looking at the situation. Not only should Luke and Barnsley never get out, but even those two guys who tried to rob themselves are probably worried about their future. In this way, because of the changes in the ruins. All traces have been eliminated, and those possible aftermaths will naturally be gone, leaving no trouble.

Passing through the canyon, Gehr came to the open space at the mouth of the valley where the carriages were parked, only to find that there were not a single carriage left here, only a few still obvious wheel marks on the dirty earthy pavement.

Although it is not known why there is no carriage for the two wizards left, and there may be other arrangements, for Gehr, the next road can only rely on two feet.

But the good thing is that you just follow the dirt road at your feet. You can go back to the old town from the canyon without fear of getting lost.

When they came, it took three days for the group to travel from the town to the gorge by horse-drawn carriage, and now Gehr has changed to walking, which takes much more time. However, in order to avoid accidents during the three-day journey, the carriage was strictly in accordance with the guidelines of walking at dawn and stopping at dark, and now Gehr does not need to follow so strictly when he is alone, and he can continue to drive more after dark every day, and if there are no accidents on the road in this way. Gehr estimated that it would take him about five or six days to get back to the town, and he wouldn't have to wait long.

By the time we crossed the canyon, it was already getting dark, and after walking for more than an hour. It was completely dark. The Moon Goddess once again ruled the sky as usual, donning her black gauze dress studded with sparkling gems, and offering some starlight to Gehr who was hurrying below. He walked for more than two hours before he stopped at a small stream in the woodland by the roadside. Collect dry firewood and light a bonfire. Go camping.

I made a rather abstract clay pot with the basic shaping techniques that every apprentice who wants to experience life in the wilderness, set it on the fire, disemboweled a few small fish caught from the creek, cleaned it, and threw it in, and added some spices that I carried with me, and in a short time, a rich smell of fish soup spread.

While the fish broth was cooking, Gehr walked to the edge of the campfire, carefully sprinkling some black particles evenly on the circle centered on the campfire. This is a specially bred variant of sunflower seeds, which automatically erupts into flashes and explosions whenever it senses the vibration of something approaching nearby, making it a very simple and practical alarm device.

After all this was done, Gehr sat down by the campfire, took out the dry food, and began to swallow the fish soup in a big gulp.

Surrounded by a dark forest, there was no light except by the campfire, and a light breeze swept through the forest, blowing the leaves to and fro, making a gentle rustling sound, which made Geer feel even more lonely.

Luckily, no beast was attracted by the smell of the food, so Gehr finished eating peacefully, and then buried the crockpot that had completed his mission into the dirt to the side, so as not to attract some uninvited guests.

After all this was done, Gehr opened the backpack, took out a black cloth and put it on the ground, and then began to take out the materials in the backpack for preliminary processing.

Gehr didn't have time to do this kind of thing when he was in the ruins, but over time, some important substances in the materials might pass out to a certain extent, so now that he had time, he tried to dispose of some of them.

First take out a large piece of dead crocodile leather, put it on a black cloth, then take out a small red bottle, pull out the stopper, pour out some white powder that looks the same as salt from it, and spread it evenly on the leather, with a focused expression and careful movements, without missing any part of the leather.

Time passed minute by minute, and after Gehr had finished the parts that continued to be processed such as the dead crocodile leather, spine, and claws, he had already reached the middle of the night before he knew it.

Gell rubbed his sour eyes, stood up, and stretched, the joints on his body gurgled accordingly.

After moving his body, Gehr put away the materials in the same way, put them in the backpack, and then lay directly on the ground, pillowed the backpack, and began to rest.

There was no one around, and even the shaking of the leaves didn't know when it had disappeared, only the sound of his own heartbeat echoed the sound of the crackling of dead branches in the bonfire, and for a while, many inexplicable emotions came to mind.

It was already late autumn, and Gehr thought that it should be the height of summer when he came to this world with the people of the Holy Spirit Sect. Before you know it, two years have passed. Recalling the past, I can only sigh that it seems to have happened in the previous life. An unprecedented melancholy was born.

Gehr suddenly remembered the grandfather of this body, the beautiful Castle of Winterdusk, and looked at the three uncles and aunts buried in the flames, and then thought of Lucarin, and wondered if she was doing well? Sophia, how is this weak sister now, and will she be able to control the Colbenson house without herself? and Salorath, who has not heard from her since the separation of Bern. In addition, she has been in battle since then, and I don't know what her ending will be.

By the way, I don't know what Prince Fayelino thinks of his disappearance, whether he will give up his support for the Colbenson family because he has lost his usefulness, if this is the case, it will be really difficult for Sophia to survive. But thinking about it, it should be too much to think about, after all, the Colbenson family still holds a part of the financial lifeline that is about to rise and can affect the entire country, and according to the prince's eloquence, he should not be so unwise. On the contrary, a family without a backbone should be easier to support and control.

Carmerita, the companion who came to this world with her, should have arrived at the Ring of El long ago, with her qualifications and abilities. Now I guess I'm already a right-chosen patron, think about myself, it seems to be a little far away.

Time. Gehr recalled all the people he knew, and his thoughts were unusually confused.

For Gehr. This emotion is both abnormal and reasonable, just a normal reaction after a violent adventure that suddenly falls into a particularly lonely environment. When a person is in this environment, walking on a road that leads to the unknown, there will always be some inexplicable feelings.

Of course, if it were replaced by the previous life when he was still in that cruel and cold apocalyptic world, this kind of emotion would not have arisen in any way, and the current situation can only show that the life of this life has more and more influence on him, and I don't know if it is a good thing.

After being immersed in this strange thought for a long time, Ger suddenly became a little distracted, and simply looked at the materials he had collected in the ruins today, and began to organize them.

After spending so much time in the Aishi Rift, he already had a fairly clear understanding of the division between apprentices and wizards, and with what he had seen and heard today, his understanding of wizards was even clearer. Before, he only knew that all wizards would show overwhelming strength to the apprentices, but there was no accurate standard for how to distinguish the superior among wizards, but now relying on the knowledge he has learned and what he has seen and heard today, he can begin to roughly divide the strength level in the wizarding world.

The first is the apprentice, which is clearly divided, that is, the junior apprentice and the advanced apprentice, corresponding to the two stages of the preparer of the patron.

The primary apprentice is the lowest level, generally mastering one to three of the simplest tricks that are not even spells, and his physical fitness and spirit are stronger than ordinary people, but if he has not undergone military training, he is not as good as a knight-level warrior. On the side of the patron, it is equivalent to a junior preparer, and it is only a child who has undergone a certain amount of combat skills training, lacking actual combat experience, and can only bully ordinary people.

Among the people that Gehr knows now, Serena and Buonie are of this class.

Higher apprentices, at this level, have changed drastically compared to primary apprentices. Because of the long-term absorption of energy particles, the apprentices of this level have been strengthened to a very high level, and at the same time have at least three or more spell models, and some of the top apprentices have even mastered certain skills in simplifying spells and strengthening spells, which can already be regarded as a strong level beyond mortals, corresponding to the high-level preparers who have mastered the power of ripples on the side of the patron.

As for the wizard level, Gehr can only divide it into two levels based on the available information.

The first rank is the group of wizards who have just become wizards, because the wizards of this rank have just been promoted from apprentices, except for the defensive spell model that solidifies the spirit, they are not much stronger than the top apprentices in other aspects, but as long as it takes a long time to learn a few wizard-level spell models, the strength between the two sides will be quickly stretched.

As for the second order, Gehr only makes a conjecture based on some knowledge in the book, which mentions that the next stage is to transform the heart, to energize it, to further energize the blood, and finally to the entire circulatory system. At that time, wizards would gain a lot of special spells and abilities. The scene where Luke and Barnsley fought against the white-robed wizard seen today, Gehr estimated that they were using spells at this stage, the white-robed wizard should have completed the heart energy, and Luke and Barnsley were worse, so it took two people to join forces to cast spells of the same level.

As for what is going on with the comparison between the two ranks of wizards on the side of the patron, Gehr is not very clear, but considering the power shown by the wizard, Gehr is also quite looking forward to it.

In addition, things like magic items that can improve their strength may not be very important to wizards, but they are rare and good things for apprentices, and they can make up for the shortcomings of the apprentice's own abilities.

Thinking of this, Gehr suddenly remembered the loot he had obtained from Garton today, and took it out of his arms.

Reflected in the light of the fire, the pendant emits a misty blue light. (To be continued......)
