I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha
#132 - Painting in the skin!
(5K Large Chapter)
On the rotating stone steps of Dahl Tower, Kaila and a Black Abyss female apprentice were descending the stairs together.
Kaila said to the Black Abyss female apprentice beside her, "Angel, you've arrived just in time. With you here, the task the mentor assigned us is as good as done."
In the evening, Kaila went crazy in the grand bathhouse, causing quite a bit of laughter and greatly disappointing Mentor Dahl.
Half an hour ago, her mental state returned to normal under the effects of the magic potion, and she begged the mentor to be responsible for this task.
After the mentor agreed, Kaila met Angel while going downstairs.
The Black Abyss female apprentice, Angel, was Kaila's best friend, and Kaila told her everything, so she told her all about the matter.
Angel immediately offered to help.
Angel said, "Rest assured, Kaila. I came this time specifically for this matter."
Kaila was a little puzzled and asked, "Angel, if you are a special investigator from the Black Abyss, then what about those four young wizards?"
Angel sneered, "What else can that group of good-for-nothings do besides internal strife and betrayal? The Black Abyss is no longer the Black Abyss of the past. Are they even worthy to represent the Black Abyss school?"
Angel's tone was very arrogant, but her strength was indeed remarkable.
She was a high-level apprentice.
Her appearance was very pure, even with a hint of holiness. But she just happened to have a pair of enchanting peach blossom eyes.
Whenever she blinked her watery eyes and spoke to others, it seemed like she was seducing them.
Even Kaila felt a deer bumping around in her heart when chatting with her.
Kaila swore that her sexual orientation was normal, but her girlfriend was too charming. Every time they met, it made people want to get close.
While chatting, the two had already arrived in the courtyard outside the wizard tower.
At the entrance of the courtyard, a dozen or so low and mid-level apprentices were surrounding Roland.
Not knowing what Roland was doing, the White Fang apprentices watching him had strange looks in their eyes.
When Angel clearly saw Roland's face, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Then, she narrowed her eyes.
She walked over with a smile and greeted Roland, "I was wondering who came to investigate this time. So it's little junior Roland. I know you. Your reputation has been quite something lately."
Roland didn't even look at her and was busy with his own affairs.
It seemed like he had just put on his pants in public, and now he was exposing his upper body, applying something to himself, not at all avoiding the gazes around him.
His behavior was crazy, muttering to himself, not knowing what he was mumbling.
Angel exchanged a look with Kaila, somewhat诧异, then pricked up her ears and listened carefully, discovering it was the 'Hemostasis Charm'.
Angel sniffed the air and detected the scent of 'Hemostasis Gel'. It seemed that this kid was applying Hemostasis Gel to himself while casting the Hemostasis Charm on himself.
At this time, Roland grinned and put on the Fire Demon Lizard Leather Armor, then wiped the edges of the leather armor with a hot towel. The leather armor was obviously very clean, but he wiped it over and over again.
"What is this lunatic doing?" Angel frowned and looked at the many apprentices.
One apprentice shook his head and said, "I don't know, Lord Angel. He's been like this ever since we came downstairs. We fed him magic potions before, but it didn't work."
Kaila shook her head and said, "He's probably gone crazy again, like that madness that's popular in town. He always feels like he doesn't have skin… We'll still have to rely on this kid to lead the way later, which is really terrible. Angel, you're good at mental and soul studies, can you cure him?"
Angel sized up Roland with a look of disgust and said, "He's beyond saving."
After a pause, she added, "People from the Black Abyss school all have some strange mental illnesses. But they're all intermittent. Let him finish what he's doing, and he'll be fine. Otherwise, he'll go crazy."
At this time, Roland had already put on his cloak. He checked his whole body and breathed a sigh of relief. The pain on his face was also gone.
He looked at the crowd and said, "I've made you all laugh. My skin disease just flared up… Oh, this senior sister, you are actually…?"
Angel said coldly, "Special Investigator from the Black Abyss."
Roland revealed a look of realization. He felt that this senior sister looked a little familiar. He thought he should have seen her the day he went to the Magic Chess Club. That day, the instructors were busy in the hall, and later many people stayed in the hall.
When he walked out of the hall at that time, several senior sisters stopped him… I don't know if she was one of them.
He once again sized up this senior sister, convinced that she had a high level of attainment in mysticism.
Because she has skin.
Kaila looked at the moon in the sky and said, "It's already very late, let's set off early. You're called Roland, right? According to your clues, where should we go now?"
Roland nodded, took out the Wishing Needle, looked at it, and then pointed to the distant mountains: "My skin is there."
Kaila looked at the inferior Wishing Needle in Roland's hand, and the corners of her eyes twitched fiercely.
A middle-level apprentice around her cursed, "Damn it, boss, this madman is playing us!"
Kaila patted her forehead and said, "Heavens. Don't tell me, the so-called clue is this Wishing Needle!"
Roland looked at the distant mountains and shook his head: "Didn't you see that skin?"
Everyone: "What skin?"
Roland pointed to the mist that was slowly shrinking back into the mountain in the distance and said, "Skin."
No one paid attention to him.
Kaila looked at Angel and asked, "Where were you originally planning to investigate tonight?"
Angel looked at the mountain with a strange expression: "I waited specifically until night… I planned to go up the mountain."
Everyone was slightly stunned and felt very surprised.
Kaila looked at the distant mountains shrouded in clouds and mist under the moon and shook her head: "Angel, the shepherds around the town often graze there, but there's nothing there. To be honest, I specifically went there at night when there was ghost mist. Ghost mist makes it easy to get lost, but with some effort, you can still cross it and go up the mountain…"
She emphasized again: "I went to see it with the mentor, and some of the wizard adults who often come here to play have also been there. There's nothing there."
Roland also frowned. Kaila's words made him have some doubts about his own judgment.
Angel shook her head and said, "That place is not simple. Let's go, I specifically brought something this time. Maybe we can find the real mountain."
Everyone seemed to trust Angel very much, and her words were final.
Soon, the group went up the mountain and entered the mist-filled area.
The surroundings were gray and hazy, and nothing could be seen beyond five meters. Kaila used a strange object to connect everyone together to prevent anyone from getting lost.
She said, "Angel, if I lead the way again, I'm afraid we'll go to that mountain where there's nothing. What good things did you bring, take them out and show us."
Angel took out a small ball, with a very funny smiley face painted on it.
After looking at the smiley face, she showed a very strange expression. Then, pretending to test her junior, she looked at Roland with a smile that was not a smile: "Our little guide, Mr., do you want to try his Wishing Needle again?"
Roland looked at the strange little ball and took out his cheap Wishing Needle.
After looking at it for a while, Roland turned around and pointed down the mountain: "Just go straight."
Everyone looked down the mountain and showed strange expressions: "Didn't you say that place was on the mountain?"
"It's on the mountain." Roland's tone was firm. He pointed down the mountain and said, "That's the mountain."
More than ten minutes later…
Kaila felt that she must be crazy.
She actually believed that madman's words.
They followed that madman, holding that broken Wishing Needle, circling around all the way. Sometimes going up the mountain, sometimes going down the mountain. Sometimes wandering blindly in the ghost mist, almost getting lost!
Finally, the little madman led everyone to find the road down the mountain, and they went all the way down the mountain and returned to the town!
In the thin mist, the moonlight draped a layer of silver clothing over this mysterious Gothic town.
The streets were very quiet, and people were asleep.
Tonight there was ghost mist, and someone was going crazy, so the town implemented a curfew, and people did not go out.
"Don't tell me, this is the mountain you were talking about!"
Kaila couldn't hold it in any longer. She didn't know what to say to the mentor later.
Tell the mentor that the mentor is a fool and believed a madman's words?
Then say that they played with this madman all night and came back without finding anything?
Roland's expression was also extremely strange. The terrain nearby was no different from the terrain near the town at the foot of the mountain.
The surrounding area was shrouded in thin mist, and the distance could not be seen clearly. For a time, it was not clear whether this was on the mountain or at the foot of the mountain.
Roland felt that this should be on the mountain.
Because he had been walking uphill all the time and had not taken any detours.
But everyone said that he had taken a detour and went down the mountain.
Now, the town at the foot of the mountain was right in front of him!
The terrain here was also wrong. The terrain on the mountain was suitable for building a castle, but a town could not be built.
Roland couldn't tell.
'Am I crazy, or are they crazy?!'

Angel frowned and asked, "Kaila, is Bloodfang Town also often covered by ghost mist?"
Kaila sighed helplessly and said, "It's Dahl Town, Angel. Ghost mist often spreads here. However, it usually doesn't linger for long before dissipating. Only the mist on the mountain appears for a longer time."
Roland frowned and pondered for a moment, his eyes slowly brightening.
"I understand, hahaha! I understand! The land skin is also skin!"
Roland pounded his fist into his hand and said to the crowd, "This isn't fog, it's skin! The town's skin! Someone has pulled the town's skin (fog) up the mountain! He stole the skin, and our skin was stolen too!
And we are now standing on this misty piece of land! We are now like the people in the Painted Skin, standing inside a skin!"
Look at that, what kind of madness is this?
No one paid him any attention, afraid of catching his madness.
Everyone was consulting the Black Abyss's mysterious master, 'Angel'.
Angel held some strange things, looked at them, and said, "This is indeed Bloodfang Town."
Angel then said with certainty, "However, the person who is spreading the madness will make a move tonight, and we have to catch him."
Kaila and the others revealed solemn expressions.
This madness in the town is very strange.
Many people have been infected, and each time it's in batches, even advanced apprentices like themselves are not spared.
If what's causing this is some mysterious phenomenon, then things would be easier to deal with.
Because not all mysterious phenomena are dangerous—for example, the symptom of madness like 'You actually don't have skin, you just haven't realized it!' belongs to the kind of mysterious phenomenon that is not dangerous.
Therefore, Kaila and the others felt that if it was a mysterious phenomenon, things would be easier to handle, but if the madness was caused by a person, it would be the most troublesome.
To be able to spread madness silently in the town, this person's strength is probably extraordinary.
After all, the White Fang Society has been searching for so long and hasn't found his trace.
This person is probably a Twilight's formal wizard.
These strange things seem like something they would do.
As Brenda had said before, the people of the White Fang Society understand people very well and often come into contact with various wizards.
But they don't understand mystery.
Moreover, they have never experienced 'Suffering' like this, and even few people in the Eastern Territory have experienced such a high-risk mysterious event.
Because those who have experienced it are basically dead.
Therefore, Kaila and her group used their own understanding to assess this matter, believing that if the madness was a mysterious phenomenon, it would not be terrible.
On the contrary, wizards are more terrible than mystery, at least Twilight wizards are more terrible than mystery.
They assessed the strength of their team according to this view.
Angel's strength is very strong, very strong, and she has many treasures in her hands.
Kaila also has some strange objects in her hand.
Two advanced apprentices, plus a dozen or so low and intermediate apprentices, it's not a problem to deal with a quasi-wizard.
Even dealing with someone who has just entered the wizard level can be a match.
But if that guy's strength exceeds the mentor... the mentor is a mid-stage first-order wizard, and is about to enter the late stage.
A wizard who has just entered the early stage of the first-order wizard and a group of elite apprentices may find it very difficult to fight, but once he enters the mid-stage of the first-order wizard, things are not something that these dozen or so people can handle.
If it's an enemy of this level, this group of people has no power to fight back.
But if it's just for exploration...
Roland listened to their discussion for a while, and couldn't help but reminded, "Everyone, what's causing this is definitely not a person.
Whether you believe me or not, the situation here is a bit wrong."
He showed everyone the compass in his hand that measured the degree of pollution.
The degree of pollution is: ?
Because the pointer on it was spinning wildly.
Everyone's pupils suddenly shrank.
Kaila took the compass from Roland's hand, and her face became very interesting.
The other people of the White Fang Society started arguing, and some said that they had always had a very strange intuition—palpitations.
They felt that there was great danger.
Moreover, now it seems that this town is a bit strange.
If it's a simple mysterious phenomenon, it's okay, if it's a simple wizard, it's not that complicated.
But if it's a Twilight wizard who has already become one with mystery, things may be a bit difficult.
These people felt that the town today was a bit strange.
They should immediately give up the investigation.
It's best to find the mentor to handle it, or suggest that the mentor convene the formal wizards of the academy to handle this matter.
Some people had the opposite opinion, saying that the mentor let everyone out to investigate this matter.
As a result, they haven't found any clues yet, so they just end it hastily.
Then in the mentor's eyes, they are deserters, and there will be no good fruit to eat.
Roland was also very hesitant in his heart.
Before finding valuable information, Lord Dahl will not let himself leave.
He wasn't sure if his skin could be recovered in a few days.
Not being able to get his skin back is a minor matter, he's afraid that his current state won't last a few days.
When he came out of the wizard tower today, he started bleeding all over his body, and there was a tendency to infection.
If it goes on for a while, he will die of festering all over his body.
Kaila looked at Angel, the backbone of the team, and said, "What's your opinion?"
Angel sneered and said, "Dahl, an alchemist who studies earth elements, what can he accomplish?
If you find other wizards to deal with it, who can you find?
Are you looking for Twilight wizards, or are you looking for people from our Black Abyss?
If those guys find out that there is a mysterious phenomenon here, they will have to occupy this place.
By then, your Dahl Town will have to be renamed, Dahl will die, and you survivors... hehe, the best outcome is to become slaves and be sold off."
Although Angel's words were very harsh, they spoke to everyone's heart.
Although Angel is also a Black Abyss wizard, she is Kaila's close friend and very loyal.
Most importantly, since the White Chess wizards settled in the Black Abyss, people like Angel have had increasingly worse relationships with their colleagues and professors.
She can be bought by the White Fang Society.
Angel said leisurely, "The most orthodox Black Abyss wizard is standing here.
I came here today on behalf of the Black Abyss Academy to help you deal with the situation here!"
She said to everyone with a smile, "Don't be afraid, the degree of pollution here is indeed very high, but it's not as terrifying as you think.
It's just something caused by a Twilight apprentice.
He stole a failed artificial mysterious object from the Twilight School and tried to advance to a formal wizard here.
Currently, he hasn't assimilated with the mystery yet, it's nothing great... but if it goes on for a while, hehe."
When everyone heard about the mysterious object and the formal wizard again, they immediately lost their confidence.
But Roland breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Angel say this with such certainty.
If that wizard hasn't 'merged with the Dao' of mystery, then it's still okay.
Kaila asked, "Are that experimental product and that apprentice powerful?
Can you handle it?"
Everyone seemed to trust Angel very much.
After Kaila spoke, they all looked at her.
Angel stretched out two fingers with a look of disdain, gestured, and said, "A piece of cake! A piece of cake, understand?"
With that, she waved her hand, "Follow me!"
But as soon as she took two steps, she stopped again and looked at Roland, "Where do you think we should go?"
Roland looked at Angel with a 'are you reliable or not' look.
Angel's face darkened and said, "Senior sister, I'm just testing you, don't be ungrateful!"
Roland stretched out his hand and pointed to the misty Grand Theater in the distance.
Angel raised her eyebrows and waved her hand, "Let's go!"
On the way, Roland looked at the buildings they passed, and at the people he occasionally encountered on the road who were talking to Kaila and the others, his eyes gradually became very interesting.
It started to rain.
