Chapter 246: Fragment
[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Wizard Tool Blueprint [Twisted Harp].]
[Beep, extraction successful. Rule Power +1.]
Two notifications rang in Heath’s ears. A large amount of unfamiliar information surged into Heath’s mind, including the principle of the harp blueprint and the rule power attached to the harp.
Just as Heath had guessed, the main reason why Harker could use rule-based spells was because of this harp.
This was a rule-based Wizard tool.
As the name suggested, rule-based Wizard tools were Wizard tools that solidified rule-based spells. Through this method, Wizards could use rule-based spells even if they did not have the relevant knowledge yet.
Heath was overjoyed. “Haha, this is really unexpected!”
The materials needed to make a rule-type Wizard tool were extremely rare, and each rule-type Wizard tool could be described as priceless.
“Wizard Heath.” At this moment, a voice came from behind.
It was the young Wizard, Hollander, from before.
Hollander walked over and bowed respectfully. “Wizard Heath, thank you very much for your help. On behalf of the Law Enforcement Team of the Tower of Order, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you.”
Heath waved his hand and said indifferently, “There’s no need to thank me.”
His indifferent reaction immediately caused the several Witches behind Holland to frown. They were obviously unhappy.
One of the Witches said, “Can you straighten up your attitude? The person standing in front of you is…”
“Lena!”
Hollander interrupted the Witch’s words.
He said harshly, “A heroic act should be treated with courtesy and not harshness. If it wasn’t for Wizard Heath’s help, we might not have been able to catch Harker today.”
Lena bit her lips and lowered her head. “Yes…”
Hollander turned his head and bowed to Heath again. “I’m very sorry. I will punish my maid for her offense. I hope you won’t take it to heart.”
Heath raised his eyebrows and looked at Hollander in surprise.
According to the Wizards he had come into contact with, purebloods usually carried a sense of arrogance, especially the Partridge family from before.
It was rare to see someone so polite.
Seeing that the other party was so polite, Heath relaxed a little and nodded. “You’re welcome.”
The smile on Hollander’s face became more cordial. He introduced himself more formally. “I’m a beginner Wizard of the Tower of Order, Hollander Partridge. I’m the captain of the Crimson Lizard Law Enforcement Team. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Heath said, “Nice to meet you.”
Hollander smiled and said, “Recently, I have heard about the rumors about you when I was in my family. You are a new Wizard of the Dark Forest, a new generation genius of Shadow Tower, a mutated muggle… Ahem…”
As if he had missed something, he coughed dryly and changed the topic, “In short, you have been in the limelight recently.”
Heath said humbly, “People always like to exaggerate.”
Hollander shook his head. “No, I thought so too before this, but now I feel that those rumors still underestimate your excellency. It’s rare to see a beginner Wizard who can master rule-type spells.”
‘Could this guy have some ulterior motive?’
Seeing him praising him with shining eyes, Heath felt a little embarrassed.
He nodded and said, “Thank you.”
After a pause, he changed the topic and asked, “Did you come here for Harker… Oh, forgive me for being presumptuous, but this shouldn’t be said, right?”
When Law Enforcers carried out missions, they usually had to keep it a secret.
Hollander shook his head. “It’s okay, this is not a secret mission.”
After a pause, he explained, “Harker, formerly known as Rogue Bulak, is a Dark Wizard from Star Moon Bay. We’ve been keeping an eye on him for a long time…”
According to Hollander, Heath had a general understanding of the whole situation.
The Harker that he had just killed was actually a Dark Wizard who specialized in robbing and murdering other Wizards’ resources.
His whereabouts had always been erratic and good at disguising himself. Every time he killed, he would clean up the aftermath and leave no traces behind. No one could find any evidence against him. In addition, he had always robbed and killed muggle Apprentices. Therefore, he did not attract too much attention.
Until not long ago, the young lady of the Slavitt family had disappeared here. This young lady was also a direct descendant of the Slavitt family. The whole incident immediately caused the Slavitt family to be furious.
A high-level Wizard within the family had used a very high-level divination technique. In addition, there was a special spiritual imprint on the Staff of the Earth’s Core in the hands of that young lady. Only then did they finally lock onto this target.
“…I really don’t know what this guy was thinking. Who isn’t good at robbing? He actually targeted the young lady of the Slavitt family. Seeing the staff, he should know her identity. Even so, he still refused to stop.”
Hollander said in disdain.
Heath also felt it was a little strange. From Hollander’s description, this Harker should be an old hand. He should know who he could touch and who he couldn’t touch. He shouldn’t have made such a mistake.
“We’ll know after the trial.”
The Witch, Lena, walked forward. As she spoke, she took out a bell and gently shook it.
With the sound of the bell, clusters of blue flames suddenly rose in the surroundings. Then, they flew toward the center and finally gathered into a human figure. It was Harker from before.
It was similar to Heath’s soul-searching spell. This was also a spell that worked on the soul.
Lena took out a crystal ball. Harker on the ground was immediately sucked in, just like an ember.
The matter came to an end at this point.
Hollander then asked, “Wizard Heath, where are you going now?”
“I know a castle in the Dark Forest where you can eat rare delicacies on the market. The banquet held by the hostess there is also very interesting. If you are not busy, we can go and have a look together.”
Heath declined politely, “Forget it. I still have some things to deal with at the Gold Coast.”
Hollander said, “The Gold Coast. That’s a pity…”
“Well… How about this…”
He opened his dimensional pocket and took out a small bottle. Inside the bottle were some black pieces, like pieces of dried fruit.
Heath took a look and recognized the pieces.
Skunk Fruit was a special fruit in the Wizard World. Each Skunk Fruit had a unique taste. Through this principle, Wizards could locate the pieces of the same fruit. Then, they could find each other to send messages.
Hollander took out a piece and handed it to Heath. “When I’m done here, I’ll visit you again. Don’t turn me away.”
Heath accepted the fruit. “Okay.”
