Wizard, I Have Another World – Chapter 157

Chapter 157: Black Wizard

“Meeh!”

“Meeh!”

Four first-order Spirit Sheep raised their heads and bleated strangely, their four hooves leaving the ground as they pulled the carriage towards the sky.

“Karl.”

Daniel, controlling the Spirit Sheep, adjusted their direction and turned his head to look:

“There aren’t many opportunities to broaden your horizons like this, there’s no need for you as a knight to be in such a hurry to go back. After all, even if things get chaotic, very few people would dare to offend a wizard of the Six Rings Tower.”

“Yes.” Karl nodded:

“It’s mainly because I don’t have many magic stones on hand, there’s no point in staying, it’s better to go back.”

“Heh…” Daniel chuckled:

“That’s true.”

He wasn’t very familiar with Karl, this newly promoted wizard of the Tower, but he had exchanged impressions with others.

Everyone’s assessment was very consistent.

Cautious, timid, with a strong desire for knowledge, and a very ordinary wizard talent, but with a bit of good luck.

Wizards of this type usually have limited prospects.

If wizard apprentices compete on cultivation talent, then wizard cultivation competes on various resources.

A wizard like Karl, with ordinary talent and no background, can only try his best to seize every opportunity to take a step further, otherwise, he may never become a middle-stage, first-circle wizard in his entire life.

Being cautious,

is a good thing.

But being too cautious, and lacking a spirit of struggle, cultivation resources won’t fall from the sky.

In comparison, Omar is much better.

Although she is a girl, she is very clear about what she needs, and every step she takes is very solid.

With Wizard Bella helping her from the side, she will definitely be able to become a late-stage, first-circle wizard in due time.

Second-circle,

is not without a chance.

Daniel was just thinking these words in his heart, reminding Karl once was enough, he didn’t need to say too much.

Under the moonlight.

The Spirit Sheep carriage pierced through the thick clouds, leaving behind wisps of smoke, as it galloped forward.

The carriage’s speed wasn’t very fast, but it was very comfortable to sit in, making it very suitable for long journeys.

Karl touched the soft armrest and backrest, already considering when to get one for himself.

Standing on a flying carpet enduring the wind and sun, could not compare to the elegance of sitting in a carriage and watching the wind and clouds.

“Hm?”

Daniel, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, and turned his head to look at the distant jungle.

A soul attack?

The familiar magic fluctuations made his eyes change, after thinking for a moment, he handed a wooden plaque to Karl:

“You control the sheep carriage first, I’ll go over there and see what’s going on.”

“This…” Karl also sensed the fluctuations of aura coming from the distance, and nodded lightly:

“Be careful.”

“It’s fine.”

Daniel’s figure flashed and disappeared from his seat, reappearing thirty meters away.

In a few flashes, he was already out of sight.

First-circle spell ━ Void Walk!

This was a special spell unique to the Six Rings Tower, with an astonishing movement speed, and could be upgraded to the corresponding second-order and third-order spells.

With this spell, even if he encountered a second-circle wizard, Daniel had a good chance of saving his life.

Facing a first-order existence, he was even invincible.

Karl withdrew his envious gaze, picked up the wooden plaque for controlling the Spirit Sheep carriage, and quickly mastered it.

“The auction hasn’t even ended, and things are already starting to get chaotic, it seems my decision to leave early was correct.”

“Go!”

“Meeh!”

The four Spirit Sheep raised their heads and screamed, accelerating forward.

Not long after.

The carriage had just crossed a high mountain when they saw several figures running wildly between the mountains, some of them shouting loudly.

This is…

A mountain chase?

“Friends of the Six Rings Tower.”

One of the fugitives saw the Spirit Sheep carriage and shouted urgently:

“Please stop, a black wizard is chasing us, please help us, we will definitely repay you handsomely afterwards.”

“Damn it!” The pursuers behind them changed their expressions, and one of them roared loudly:

“Don’t meddle in this, this is a personal feud, don’t think that just because you’re from the Six Rings Tower, we won’t retaliate!”

“Go to hell!”

Accompanied by him waving the staff in his hand, a curved arc of light flashed, sweeping towards the fugitives.

“Puff!”

“Puff puff!”

Instantly, several people fell to the ground.

Karl on the carriage frowned slightly, and then controlled the Spirit Sheep to rush towards the figures below.

“Whoosh…”

The wind stirred.

The two people running at the front were pulled into the carriage by an invisible force, and the Spirit Sheep immediately turned and rushed upwards.

If it had been other people, Karl would have definitely chosen to ignore them, but this time the people being chased were acquaintances.

“Karl!”

“Wizard Enid, we meet again.”

The people being chased were none other than Enid of the Nelson family.

Looking at the pursuers using a flying spell to chase after them, Karl’s expression couldn’t help but turn serious.

Middle-stage, first-circle!

No wonder Enid didn’t dare to fly into the sky, with the opponent’s strength, she would almost certainly die in the open space of the sky.

“Roar!”

A desolate dragon’s roar suddenly came from the void.

A black dragon was summoned by the wizard behind them, opening its mouth to bite at the Spirit Sheep carriage.

Summoning spell!

Wizards sign contracts with creatures from the astral plane or other worlds, summoning them to fight when needed.

This type of spell is one of the few that can kill enemies above their level, as long as the summoned beast that signed a contract with the wizard is strong enough.

However, the black dragon looked majestic, but it was only a phantom, or rather, a remnant soul.

Its order was at most late-stage, first-order.

However, the released dragon’s might was also extremely stressful for the Spirit Sheep, and their speed couldn’t help but slow down.

“Giddy up!”

Karl grasped the wooden plaque controlling the carriage, and his mental power poured into it frantically.

“Meeh!”

The four Spirit Sheep raised their heads and screamed, their auras connected to each other, and a huge phantom of a Spirit Sheep appeared in the void.

The phantom’s four hooves stomped on the ground, and it resisted the dragon’s bite, carrying the carriage and rushing into the sky.

“Whoosh…”

The wind rushed at their faces, and the pursuers behind them were also thrown far away.

“As expected of Wizard Daniel’s Spirit Sheep carriage, even a late-stage, first-order existence might not be able to catch up at full speed.”

Karl praised, before looking at Enid and the other person:

“How did you provoke such trouble?”

“…” Enid smiled bitterly:

“Provoke?”

“You should know my personality very well, I would never provoke trouble, it’s all because of the Swirling Spirit Butterfly.”

“Swirling Spirit Butterfly?” Karl frowned:

“So quickly someone has come looking for you?”

He had thought that this matter would not cause a dispute until after the auction ended, but he didn’t expect it to develop so quickly.

“The family head took the Swirling Spirit Butterfly, and didn’t wait for the auction to end, he had us split into several groups to go back.”

As if seeing what Karl was thinking, Enid explained:

“Our group was attacked by the black wizard as soon as we left, luckily we met you.”

“Zoe.”

“Quickly thank Wizard Karl!”

***

“Wizard Karl.” Zoe was a woman in her thirties, her face pale, her voice tearful:

“Thank you!”

Karl’s gaze paused on Zoe’s slightly bulging belly, he could hear another faint sound.

“Pregnant?”

“Yes.” Enid nodded:

“We originally brought her out to broaden her horizons, but who would have thought…Zoe’s husband was not able to escape.”

“It’s okay.” Zoe gritted her teeth, and said in a low voice:

“As long as the family head can bring the Swirling Spirit Butterfly back, and allow the Nelson family to produce a second-circle wizard.”

“Everything is worth it!”

“That’s right!” Enid patted her back:

“This is what a good daughter-in-law of our Nelson family should be.”

Karl didn’t say anything.

Using other members of the family as bait, and taking advantage of the chaos to bring the Swirling Spirit Butterfly back, the Nelson family made a good decision.

However,

is it really worth it?

You should know that even if they have the Swirling Spirit Butterfly, it’s still not certain if they can refine it into a pill, and even if they have the pill, it’s not guaranteed that a late-stage, first-circle wizard will advance, it only provides a chance.

But just for this chance, a family with many wizards is willing to risk their lives.

“Wizard Karl.”

Enid pursed her lips:

“When we get back to Leipzig Market, can you let Zoe work at your shop for a while?”

“You also know…”

“That the Nelson family might not be very safe for a while.”

“This…” After thinking for a moment, Karl nodded in agreement:

“If it’s just for work, there’s no problem.”

*

*

Whether the Swirling Spirit Butterfly was safely delivered to the Nelson family’s late-stage, first-circle wizard was unknown to Karl.

However, he could feel that in the following days, the atmosphere in Leipzig Market gradually became tense.

“I wonder if the Six Rings Tower can suppress the Andrew family, I hope there won’t be any more trouble.”

“Whatever!”

“You guys fight amongst yourselves, as long as it doesn’t interfere with me, I can find the resources I need for cultivation in the other world.”

Looking at the somewhat gloomy sky, Karl muttered in a low voice, and strode towards the outside.

Walking out of the market, he rubbed the skin on his face, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a burly man with thick eyebrows and large eyes.

The transformation technique of bloodline magic, combined with the legendary knight’s control over his own aura, allowed him to achieve a perfect transformation.

Now, even if Omar stood in front of him, she would definitely not recognize him.

The Beast Market.

The place where the Andrew family sells beast meat.

Even before getting close, a strong bloody smell assaulted his face, along with various odors from the beasts.

The ground was crisscrossed with gullies, and blood mixed with dirt flowed within them, and if one was not careful, they would step into it.

This was a place only for the lower class.

Not to mention the noble wizards, even wizard apprentices usually would not come here to buy meat.

Even if the prices here were cheaper than in the market.

Karl went against the flow of people to the back where the beast meat was piled up, and waved at a man in a short jacket.

“Vincent!”

“Oh!” Vincent turned his head upon hearing the voice, a smile appearing on his face:

“It’s you, respected guest Joe, I thought you had forgotten about the beast meat you stored here.”

“Of course not.” Karl smiled:

“That’s hundreds of thousands of pounds of beast meat, I’m still counting on it to make a profit.”

“Then you’ll be disappointed.” Vincent said:

“Although the price of beast meat has increased recently, the increase is not large, at most you won’t lose money.”

“That’s a pity.” Karl sighed:

“Where are the goods?”

“This way.”

Vincent waved his hand.

The two came to a warehouse at the back, Vincent had someone open the heavy door, and inside were stacks of frozen beast meat.

After a rough glance, the amount was probably at least four to five hundred thousand pounds!

Five hundred thousand pounds seemed like a lot, but it was only a little over two hundred tons, and could be crammed into a few rooms.

It could be completely placed into the Divine Domain Fragment.

“Thank you.”

Karl nodded in satisfaction:

“I’ll take them away now.”

Not long after.

Watching Karl’s departing figure, Vincent waved his hand and called over a young man:

“Tell them, that person has left.”

“Uncle.”

The young man hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice:

“This person was introduced by Wizard Karl of the Six Rings Tower, do we really want to make a move against him?”

“Six Rings Tower…” Vincent narrowed his eyes:

“So what?”

“Besides, it’s not our Andrew family making a move, it’s the people from Dark Fortress, it has nothing to do with us.”

“Furthermore…”

“That’s hundreds of thousands of pounds of beast meat, enough to feed a village for a year, and listening to what this person said, he might need more in the future, there shouldn’t be other forces near the market.”

“Yes.” The young man responded and left in a hurry.

…………

Having obtained the beast meat, Karl was in a good mood.

‘The mysterious seller that Merlin mentioned should have arrived, when I go to the other world tomorrow, I hope I can get a suitable holy technique.’

‘If not, I’ll just change a breathing technique, it’s said that the Furnace of Myriad Forms breathing technique is of a higher order than the Giant Spirit breathing technique, and the key is that it can adapt to most holy techniques passed down from the Divine Domain…’

‘I have the Divine Domain Fragment, I can give myself blessings, theoretically I can cultivate any deity’s breathing technique.’

‘Speaking of which, which deity passed down the Furnace of Myriad Forms?’

“Hm?”

While walking, Karl frowned slightly, he could feel a faint gaze on him.

There were no mental power fluctuations, indicating it wasn’t a magical probe.

But besides being a formal wizard, he was also a legendary knight, and his physical senses were equally sharp.

“No way, I just bought some fine meat that ordinary people use, and I’m being secretly watched?”

“Vincent…”

“I thought this person was very honest, and I even used the name of the Six Rings Tower, and he’s actually so bold?”

“Today, I’ve formed a grudge with him!”

His gaze shifted, landing on a bird on a tree not far away, Karl turned his body without showing any signs.

“Controlling birds and beasts to watch, a bloodline wizard?”

As he approached the outskirts of the market, Karl’s feet pushed off the ground, and his whole body quickly shot out, approaching the market.

No matter who was spying on him, as long as he mixed into the crowd in the market, he would naturally be safe.

The street was right in front of him.

Just as he was about to flash into the crowd, Karl suddenly retreated, his face also showing a solemn expression.

A faint white light suddenly appeared on the ground in front of him.

“A magic trap!”

“Huh?”

He raised an eyebrow, looked around, and saw that his surroundings had changed at some point.

What should have been a narrow alleyway had suddenly turned into a dense jungle.

This is…

An illusion!

Karl had encountered similar illusions before, the illusions created by Nef’s Magic Mirror were similar scenarios.

However, he had entered the Magic Mirror voluntarily, allowing the illusion to reflect into his mental sea, but now he was being forcibly pulled in.

“After all, an illusion is just an illusion, especially a low-order illusion like this, trying to trap me is nothing more than wishful thinking.”

Karl stood still, and faint lightning flickered in his eyes.

Thunder God’s Wrath!

His violent mental power turned into thunder, blasting towards the existence affecting his mental sea.

“Squawk!”

A shrill cry rang out, and a ghost-headed monster that had been lying on the wall not far away screamed and fell to the ground.

The monster’s head was completely shattered.
