I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

As long as Miss Lilith is willing to repent and stop causing trouble, the White Chess Council will accept her.

At this moment, the large oil painting far behind the three of them suddenly moved, and then two wizards and an apprentice emerged from it.

The female wizard took Roland to rest on the other side, and the red-haired male wizard came to Bruce and reported: "Qila has found the relics of Prince Charles."

After listening, Bruce shook his head and muttered, "It's good that he's dead... What a stupid pig!"

Charles was talented but lacked virtue and had no respect for his elders. He relied entirely on the White Queen's care to get where he was today. Therefore, Headmaster Bruce did not have a good impression of Prince Charles.

What's more, Charles was fully responsible for this incident!

According to Bruce's original plan, the apprentices would not jump directly into the dangerous area but would start from the edge. After all, the Twilight Wizards had already shown their cards, telling the White Chess Council that they were going to the dangerous area. The area had already been marked!

As a result, Prince Charles, who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, not only wanted to lead the team directly into the dangerous area and confront the Twilight apprentices head-on but also insisted on landing in the most central area!

The plan was changed because of this.

Prince Charles was a formal wizard hiding his strength, not an apprentice. As the only formal wizard who followed the apprentices into the forbidden area, he should have shouldered his responsibilities.

But this good-for-nothing not only died as soon as he arrived but also killed all the new recruits!

More than a hundred people! More than a hundred excellent apprentices!

Only five came back!

Headmaster Bruce's heart was bleeding.

They were all wizard seeds of the White Chess School! Moreover, many of them were descendants and relatives of Bruce's friends. They entrusted their families to him, but they all died!

How was he supposed to explain this to everyone when he returned?!

That good-for-nothing Charles was to blame, but as the leader of this forbidden area trial, he had to take the blame for him!

It was good that the guy died; it could be considered a fig leaf for the White Chess family. The school could say that he died in battle, not from stupidity!

Coming back to his senses, White Chess Headmaster Bruce looked at the boy named Roland. He nodded secretly, giving him a good evaluation in his heart.

Then, Bruce withdrew his gaze and asked the red-haired male wizard about the current situation in the forbidden area.

At this time, Ying Tao, after seeing Roland come out, had already greeted him.

"I knew you, kid, wouldn't die!"

She habitually wanted to hug the apprentice's head in her arms to comfort him. But after walking over, she realized the serious height difference between the two. So she grabbed Roland's arm.

Miss Ying Tao was extremely anxious. If this stinky kid died, how would she explain it to Catherine?

Oh, right, he seemed to be her student too!

She pulled Roland over and carefully checked him, finding that he was only exhausted of magic power and was not seriously injured. Only then did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Roland asked, "Teacher, haven't Andy and Charlie come back yet?"

Ying Tao picked up her thin-stemmed pipe and said, "Basically, they're all dead."

Angel, that is, Lilith, and Charlie were still alive. The vice president was also alive. Although President Andy was rescued, his life was uncertain. As for Lance and Alex, they were both dead.

Roland sighed after hearing this.

Just a few days ago, everyone was gathering together to play cards on the road. The four gambling gods were now only two and a half left, and they couldn't play anymore.

Ying Tao said, "It's already good enough that some people survived. It's all thanks to Angel, or rather, Lilith."

Ying Tao looked at Roland with great dissatisfaction. Her student probably already knew that Angel was Lilith, but he kept it from her.

That old thing, Usak, too, he must have known, but he kept it from his lovely student (Ying Tao was once Vice President Usak's student).

Roland's face stiffened when he heard Ying Tao mention Lilith. He said, "Angel was Lilith all along? She really hid it from me for a long time. Cough, teacher, the White Chess Wizards won't deal with her, will they?"

Lilith had caused no shortage of trouble in the past. When Roland first arrived, she kidnapped a large group of people and extorted a large sum of money from the White Chess Wizards.

Ying Tao snorted and said, "Don't worry, the White Chess people won't make things difficult for your little lover. However, when she was taken away, she exposed you—she said that you had half the credit for this matter (stopping the Holy Servants)."

Roland's face was very ugly, and he cursed in his heart: 'Why did she drag me into this?'

Ying Tao said, "If someone comes to investigate later and asks you questions, don't be evasive. Just say whatever you have to say. The survivors have said everything they could say. That Miss Qila is the investigator; she has been wandering around the forbidden area with the rescue team for two or three days, and she knows the situation inside."

Roland couldn't help but look at the powerful female wizard not far away.

Miss Qila was also looking at Roland. When Roland looked over, she turned her head and avoided Roland's gaze.

Ying Tao frowned and said, "Qila and I aren't that familiar. Does that guy know you? She's been staring at the two of us."

Roland was full of doubts.

At this time, a group of White Chess high-level apprentices walked over to check his body and mental condition.

During this process, Ying Tao, as his teacher and guardian, naturally didn't leave and kept hugging Roland's arm.

The White Chess female wizard also didn't leave, standing not far away with a cold face, communicating with some high-level apprentices about other matters.

After the examination, Roland suddenly thought of Joan and hurriedly pulled the unconscious Joan out of the dimensional bag.

He laid Joan's body flat, touched Joan's neck, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming her condition.

He said to the high-level apprentices around him, "Check her condition first."

When the many High Tower apprentices saw that this was one of their own, and also the vice president of the magicians, they couldn't help but give Roland a thumbs up.

Everyone knew which area Roland had returned from. To return from there, one had to face the Holy Servants first, and then quickly find a path that was not covered by the desert before the desert covered the central area, escaping from there.

In the middle, one didn't know how many Twilight apprentices they would encounter. Under such circumstances, he was willing to save people and was able to save people.

The many High Tower apprentices were full of admiration for this little scholar.

There was a magic spell on Joan's chest strap. Unless she took off all her clothes and unfastened the strap, it wouldn't be discovered.

And the apprentices used magic spells for examination and treatment, without taking off clothes. So Roland was relieved.

"Oh, what a beauty~ No wonder our little grape is willing to save her." Ying Tao suddenly exclaimed exaggeratedly.

Miss Qila frowned and looked over there. But she found that Ying Tao was squinting at her, and she couldn't help but avoid Ying Tao's gaze in a panic.

Roland hurriedly explained, "She's a man, don't talk nonsense."

If this matter spread to Senior Sister's ears, he would be in deep trouble.

Miss Qila's ears twitched in the distance, and her expression improved a lot. But when she curiously looked over here and found that Joan was a very, very beautiful 'boy,' she couldn't help but frown again.

There were some things that Qila still needed to confirm. Seeing that Roland was unharmed at this time, she went to ask Roland a few questions.

Regarding some matters in the forbidden area, Roland had already told Miss Qila and the male wizard when he came out. Now he was just supplementing a few questions.

Ying Tao hadn't heard Roland's description yet, so she also asked.

Next, Roland, under Ying Tao's questioning, described everything that had happened in the past few days. He naturally didn't mention anything about the Red Skull and crossing the desert. He only said that under Joan's guidance, they quickly arrived at the desert, and at that time, there was still an area on the east side that hadn't been covered by the desert, so he used Joan's odd object to fly over quickly.

As for that tree... this matter couldn't be hidden.

So, Roland, like Lilith, made the same decision—selling out his teammate.

It was all Lilith who made him do it. His original intention in getting the sapling was to take it and run away, so as not to let Lilith cause trouble and drag him in.

Speaking of this, he looked at Miss Qila and said, "Madam, my words are all true. There is no concealment."

Miss Qila ignored Roland. She glanced at this little scholar and then took the few students who had just taken notes to report to Bruce.

Bruce listened and shook his head secretly.

Compared to the stupid pig on Prince Charles's side, Headmaster Bruce was really surprised by Princess Catherine's fiancé.

He was clearly just a mudblood, clearly a marginalized figure who was not given high hopes, but in this difficult task, he saved countless people.

After Lilith and the others returned, everyone believed that Roland, who was teleported to the southern area, would definitely become another sacrifice to the Holy Servants, just like Prince Charles.

But things turned out completely opposite.

Leaving aside what Lilith's purpose was in giving Roland that special sapling.

But judging from Lilith's confession, this kid originally absolutely disagreed, but after he learned that he could leave after taking the magic potion, he suddenly asked Lilith for the sapling.

Bruce believed that this cautious little ranger would never cooperate with Lilith. But was afraid that Lilith would cause a big mess and implicate him. The purpose of asking for the sapling was to bring the sapling back.

So, this was a conscientious little rascal.

Judging from the situation reported when the first rescue team returned, that tree was eventually planted by this kid. But it was planted on that Holy Servant's body!

In that situation, to be able to calmly make such a decision and devise a way to let the Shepherd Tree destroy the Servant of God's arrival, this little wizard possesses great wisdom.

And judging from the wizards' investigation results on the anchor point, this kid's original landing spot was quite a distance away from there!

He teleported with another group of magicians. Given the personalities of the Black Abyss apprentices, they wouldn't possibly go with them.

Even if he accidentally ran into that open space later, he could have chosen to run away—if he ran, he would undoubtedly die.

But he chose to live by facing death. And this decision allowed him to truly survive.

This is great courage.

He looked at Joan, who was unconscious on Roland's side, and breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, Joan was rescued. At least he could give Joan's father an explanation.

Bruce's gaze towards Roland became gentler.

The Dean of the Ursack Branch, who had been silently listening to the White Chess wizards, saw more people flying over from the distant tower and couldn't help but say, "Bruce, Roland should be the last one. Let's not wait any longer. Let's go to the tower and take a look."

Bruce gave Kira and the male wizard some instructions, and then left.

Kira led people to inspect the camp and gave some instructions. As she walked, she happened to come to Roland's side again, so she inspected the area again.

At this time, Joan had already been taken away by the tower apprentices for treatment, and Yingtao was still here.

Miss Kira perked up her ears and listened to Yingtao saying, ". The father of that handsome boy is an important senator in the council. He also has some territories in his hands. With this relationship, you should have one more option regarding the territory."

She hugged Roland's arm again and said, "Of course, you can also look for your little darling. Next time you secretly date, you can coax her properly."

Roland immediately interrupted, "Miss Yingtao, please don't talk nonsense. I'm not familiar with Her Highness Catherine at all, so there's no such thing as dating."

"My little grape, sweet grape. Sister already knows about you two."

Yingtao leaned on Roland's shoulder and said, "Just coax her like you coaxed sister last time. Don't worry, sister won't be jealous."

Roland's face was full of question marks. He pushed Miss Yingtao away and said, "Mentor, what are you talking about?"

At this moment, he heard a cold voice behind him: "Scholar Roland, come over here for a moment. There are still some issues here that require your cooperation in the investigation."

Roland turned his head and saw Miss Kira. He hurriedly got up and followed her to her tent.

Yingtao, who was on the side, narrowed her eyes as she watched Kira's departing figure.

On this side, Roland saw that Miss Kira's face was very cold, and followed anxiously behind her to her tent.

'Where did the problem occur? Has the fact that I killed my fellow disciples been exposed, or has the secret of crossing the desert been discovered?'

Roland repeatedly reviewed it several times along the way, and felt that there should be no problems. He thought to himself: 'Stay calm! Stay calm! There are no witnesses to these things, so they can't deal with me immediately. As long as I stick to my story and get through this review, I will have the opportunity to leave here.'

Full of thoughts, Roland followed Miss Kira into the tent.

After entering, Miss Kira leaned against the stone table with an icy expression, then nodded her chin, and asked Roland to sit on the chair in front of her.

This is a Tier 1 mid-stage wizard, and even more powerful than Lord Bidal. Roland didn't dare to act presumptuously in front of her, and sat on the chair, pretending to be calm.

He looked at the 'Review Officer Miss' Kira with feigned doubt, and politely asked, "Madam, what kind of investigation do you need me to cooperate with?"

Miss Kira crossed her arms in front of her chest, squinted her eyes, and sized Roland up and down for a long time. There was a faint murderous aura in her eyes.

In front of this powerful and assertive Review Officer Miss, Roland was frightened. He thought to himself: 'This murderous aura... what exactly has been exposed?'

After a while, she finally asked the first question: "When did you and Yingtao get into bed?"

Roland was dumbfounded. He subconsciously poked his ears and asked, "What did you just say?"

The Review Officer Miss asked with fire in her eyes: "What is the relationship between you and your mentor?!"

Roland was stunned for a long time, and asked, "Of course it's the relationship between a teacher and a student... Wait, Miss Kira, does this matter have anything to do with the forbidden area?"

With a snap, Kira's palm cracked a large number of cracks in the stone table. Immediately, Roland's hands were bound to the chair, and the magic power in his body was also imprisoned.

Miss Kira said: "Answer what I ask!"

Roland was shocked. His brain spun frantically for a long time, and he thought to himself: 'Why is there such a big commotion? What exactly has been exposed? Could this matter be related to Yingtao? Is she a spy? No, Yingtao is Senior Sister's person, how could she be a spy?'

"I'm asking you a question!"

The Review Officer Miss shouted sternly, startling Roland. The Review Officer Miss Kira's eyes were filled with a cold light, saying: "How did you coax her last time?"

Roland looked dazed. He asked, "Madam, what does whether I coax Yingtao or not have to do with this investigation?"

Review Officer Kira nodded deeply, and said through gritted teeth, "I can hear it, it seems you really got together with her... You ungrateful and heartless stinky man!"

As she spoke, she reached out and touched the French sword on her waist. It seemed that she was about to hack Roland to death in the next second—she wouldn't relieve her hatred with magic!

As she drew her sword, she said angrily, "Roland, you deserve to die! You deserve to be cut into a thousand pieces! I went deep into the desert, searching bitterly for ."

"Wait!"

Roland was scared to death, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Allow me to say two more words."

Review Officer Kira spat out a word from between her teeth: "Speak."

Roland said, "First of all, I don't know what you are investigating, but as for Yingtao, how could I possibly have a relationship with her? I'm not even familiar with her!"

Review Officer Kira said: "Bullshit! Just now..."

Roland interrupted: "Listen to me first—regardless of my character, I think you should know the character of my fiancée."

Review Officer Kira seemed quite interested in this matter, and actually asked, "Hmm, so, in your eyes, what kind of person is Her Highness Catherine?"

Roland hesitated slightly. He looked at the sword in the female wizard's hand, and looked around suspiciously. After confirming that there was no such gaze behind him, he coughed and said in a low voice:

"Catherine is a bit petty."

Review Officer Kira: "?"

Roland said: "Not only does she like to be jealous, but she is also a thief..."

As he spoke, Roland felt that the murderous intent in the Inspector Miss's eyes seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.
