Chapter 122: Talk
Standing on the treetop, Heath looked in the direction where they left and pondered for a while.
In the end, he stopped the idea of following them. “Forget it. I can’t even finish my own things. I’d better mind my own business.”
He came here to improve his strength, not to find out other people’s secrets. Moreover, this secret was obvious and might bring trouble.
Curiosity killed the cat. A Wizard’s curiosity should be placed on studying spells.
Shaking his head, Heath dispelled the curiosity in his heart and began his hunting trip.
He returned to the battlefield first.
The Demonized Spider was only a low-level demonized creature. Its value was very low, and now it was burnt. It was absolutely worthless to ordinary Wizards, but to Heath, it was still a treasure that had remaining value he could squeeze out.
After looking around the battlefield, he saw that the damage was not that great, so he began to extract it.
[Beep, extraction successful. Spiritual Power +0.01]
[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Talent: Spider Silk]
[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Demonized Spider’s Life Sequence…]
He really did not know if he did not extract it. The moment he extracted it, he was shocked.
After his talent [Venom], Heath had even extracted the Demonized Spider’s talent [Spider Silk].
It must be known that many spells of Wizards originated from the physical simulation of demonized creatures in nature, such as the [Lightning Burst] that simulated the moray eel, or the [Environmental Invisibility] that simulated the chameleon.
These simulations required a huge amount of time and energy for Wizards to study and dissect a certain species for many years before the final result could be obtained.
And now, he had directly skipped the process of research and obtained the final knowledge. Only a Wizard knew how powerful and terrifying this ability was.
“I’ve come to the right place to extract two spells!”
With this knowledge, Heath only needed to combine them with runes to easily display the talents of these species through magic. It was basically equivalent to directly extracting two spells.
“And I can even extract life sequence… This is really incredible…”
Life sequence was equivalent to the genetic code of the species. Mastering these life sequences was equivalent to directly cultivating such species in the laboratory.
“This is also because I advanced to an advanced Apprentice? Then why can’t I extract it from ordinary demonized beasts? It should be related to the relatively new gene series of these species, right?”
Heath guessed that the fact that he could directly extract the life sequence of the species should have a lot to do with the species in the Magic Bug Forest.
Most of the species in the Magic Bug Forest were not original, but were new species that Wizard Parker had bred on the basis of other similar species.
For example, the Queen Spider.
The original Queen Spider was smaller than this, and it was even more ferocious and could not be tamed. In order to tame this species, Wizard Parker had specially modified and adjusted its life sequence.
Many species here were like this. The Magic Bug Forest was Wizard Parker’s magic bug laboratory.
“What surprises are waiting for me?”
Looking at the vast forest in the distance, Heath set off on his journey with great ambition.
…
At the same time, in the Shadow Tower, in Wizard Edith’s room.
Bang!
A heavy sound came from the room. Wizard Edith slapped the desk hard and said angrily, “These reckless Apprentices, d*mn it! Really d*mn it!”
At this time, Cassandra walked into the office. She could not help but ask, “What happened? Why are you so angry?”
Edith said angrily, “There was a warning from the Magic Bug Forest. Someone broke in.”
Wizard Parker, the former owner of the Magic Bug Forest, had a good relationship with Edith. Before he went to the secret plane, he asked Edith to take care of the Magic Bug Forest. Now that Wizard Parker was gone, Edith could not even protect his hard work. Naturally, he felt bad.
Cassandra glanced at the desk. There was a crystal ball on the desk. The crystal ball displayed the image of the Magic Bug Forest.
She shook her head and comforted, “There’s no need. These bugs are not worth much. What’s really valuable is the gene series left by Parker, and these are things that they cannot be taken away no matter what.”
Territory, resources, Wizard tools, Magic Stones. Shadow Tower gave everything away, but everything related to knowledge was still hidden.
Edith frowned, but still said somewhat indignantly, “I just can’t stand seeing these guys recklessly destroy Parker’s painstaking efforts.”
Cassandra smiled and changed the topic, “Which Wizard is so free to come to the Magic Bug Forest to take advantage of the magic bug forest instead of fighting for territory? Tell me, tell me, let me see.”
The resources in the Magic Bug Forest were valuable to the apprentices, but they should be worthless to the Wizards.
Edith said in an astonished tone, “It’s a few Apprentices.”
Cassandra was surprised, “What?”
She clearly remembered that Parker had reinforced the protection measures in the Magic Bug Forest before he left. Without the strength of an official Wizard, it was impossible to break in.
Cassandra continued to ask, “Where did the Apprentices come from to be so capable?”
Edith helplessly revealed a name. “Shadow Tower.”
Cassandra was stunned, but quickly understood.
It was a reasonable answer. After all, other than their Shadow Tower, there weren’t many Apprentices who could break in anywhere else in the Underdark Treesea.
Edith said angrily, “I really didn’t expect to raise a bunch of ingrates.”
Cassandra shook her head. “Forget it. We’re just taking what we need. We can’t just call ourselves mentors.”
Edith hesitated for a moment, and his expression gradually eased. He sighed and did not say anything else.
Cassandra continued to ask, “Who are the brats that broke in?”
Edith said, “There are a total of four who broke into the Magic Bug Forest. Two advanced Apprentices and two intermediate Apprentices. Those two advanced Apprentices are the two Gray Wizards outside. The remaining two intermediate Apprentices are from our Shadow Tower.”
After a pause… He added, “The two intermediate Apprentices are the ones who really played a key role. Especially the kid who set up the [Hellfire Sea]. Otherwise, those two grey mice wouldn’t be able to charge in so easily!”
Cassandra was even more surprised now. “Hellfire Sea?”
She asked in surprise, “Are you sure that the intermediate Apprentice set up the [Hellfire Sea]?”
In the Shadow Tower, Cassandra was definitely one of the Wizards who were most familiar with the Hellfire Sea, because she was the one who had created the spell in the first place, and she was also one of the main creators.
As the creator of the spell, she certainly knew how powerful the spell was, but at the same time, she also knew how complicated the spell was.
The knowledge of runes, arrays, and other things involved in the spell could be described as a vast amount, and there were many obscure and profound parts. Even some Wizards only knew a little about it.
In Cassandra’s view, without decades of hard work on knowledge, it was impossible to complete the arrangement of this spell. Those who had the time to spend decades studying knowledge and still be alive were basically Wizards.
It was not that there were no Apprentices with extraordinary talent who could learn it in one go, but they were definitely formal Apprentices. There was no reason for them to sell the tower so easily just for a small profit.
Edith smiled bitterly and said, “I also think it’s strange where an ordinary Apprentice learned the [Hellfire Sea], but I can’t be wrong about the [Hellfire Sea].”
He pulled the crystal ball over and gently tapped it. “It’s this Apprentice. Take a look for yourself.”
The crystal ball flashed, and soon an Apprentice appeared on it.
When she saw the iconic black hair, Witch Cassandra couldn’t help but twitch her lips.
“It’s that kid again!”
