The Wizarding Age

Shadow Light Squad.

Captain: Quasi-Wizard Pontar, male, 37 years old, with affinity for dark elements.

There are four members, namely, the body refining apprentice Daxo (senior), the plant apprentice Eko (female, intermediate), the transformation apprentice Blanco (intermediate), and the goblin magician Little Locke (elementary).

Originally, Little Locke was not qualified to join the Shadow Light Apprentice Squad with his strength. However, in view of the strong recommendation of the beautiful female apprentice Eko, and the fact that Little Locke's magician route does not pay too much attention to individual strength, and has a unique characteristic that other professions do not have, Pontar allowed him to become a member of the team.

This 5-person team has the body refining apprentice Daxo as a meat shield, the plant apprentice Eko as a healer, and a magician who is good at reconnaissance and disruption. In this way, even if they encounter those powerful monsters, they can deal with them calmly and give the greatest output opportunity to the core of the team-quasi-witch Pontar.

As for the Transfiguration Department, it is a strange promotion direction that suddenly emerged in the White Tower in the past six months. Most of the knowledge system in it comes from a magical world called Faen. It is said that there is a magical profession called Druid, who can communicate with animals and plants with his natural affinity for nature.

And the most powerful ability of that kind of Druid is to transform into a ferocious monster at will, and then rely on the instant racial superpowers and strong body to be invincible on the battlefield.

After the wizards of the Crimson Family obtained this part of knowledge from the other world, they slightly transformed it into a new discipline within the family - the Transfiguration Department.

Wizard apprentices who have mastered the Transfiguration Technique can freely switch between the Hell Bear, Shadow Cheetah and Wind Eagle, making their combat methods more diverse and more bizarre.

Of course, these three transformations are just basic subjects that all Transfiguration Apprentices must master. If you want to have more and more powerful transformation abilities, you need a lot of points and a lot of magic crystals to exchange knowledge in the family library. Therefore, these days, the lucrative family tasks in the nearby Black Forest have become very popular, and almost all of them are taken up by the combat teams formed by prospective wizards.

As for those lone wolves in the wilderness or those who have no one to rely on, they can only pick up some small tasks that others don't care about, or simply squat in the wizard tower and slowly brush their daily routines.

The progress of wizard apprentices is almost entirely based on the accumulation of points and magic crystals.

One step slow, every step slow, just relying on cleaning the laboratory, sorting and processing some witchcraft materials for formal wizards, acting as a witchcraft facility manager... Such work, wanting to achieve rapid progress is simply wishful thinking.

So these days, all the crimson apprentices with some skills and abilities have started to work, and almost completely cleared the Black Forest around the White Tower. Some ferocious monsters living here are naturally unwilling to be expelled, and began to frequently appear in the Black Forest to ambush those crimson apprentices who ran out to do tasks.

Several teams have been ambushed, and some Crimson apprentices have been killed and wounded.

For this reason, the family specially sent Lord Insect Wizard Bilis to the Black Forest, killing eleven lord-level level 1 monsters in one go. As a result, the previously arrogant monsters immediately disappeared and began to show signs of migrating to the depths of the Black Forest.

However, in this way, the danger level of the Black Forest immediately dropped by several levels, and it quickly became the best place for all wizard apprentices to train and explore.

"Blanco, do you want to die?" Pontar scolded dissatisfiedly: "Although all the lord-level monsters here have been eliminated by Lord Bilis, there are still many wizard-level monsters left. Do you think a team like ours can escape alive when encountering these guys?"

"Boss, our luck is not that bad, right?" Blanco is a sharp-tongued and slick boy, wearing a light leather armor, and there are two blue lines under the family emblem of the burning iron fist on his chest. This indicates that he has mastered the other two transformation techniques except the wind eagle.

"No one knows whether I can carry you or not. But if we really meet an enemy, I will definitely stuff you into the monster's mouth first..." Pontar threatened fiercely, but anyone could hear the teasing tone in his voice.

"How about... let's find a place to rest first!" The female apprentice Echo said softly: "We have been walking in the Black Forest for half a day, and it's time to find a place to rest and sort out."

During this period of time, Echo and Pontar's feelings have heated up rapidly. He naturally obeys the words of his sweetheart.

"Little Locke, quickly find a clean and safe place nearby."

"Got it!"

After receiving the order, the little goblin who had been quietly staying in the middle of the team immediately took out the eyeball fighter from his waist bag and threw it into the air.

A metal ball the size of a human head floated gently in the air.

Squeak...

With a dark sound of mechanical gears biting, the mysterious patterns on the surface of the eyeball fighter began to light up one by one, and then a metal secret door opened, revealing a dark red mechanical eyeball inside.

The mechanical eyeball can rotate and explore freely like a human eye. When the broken ruby ​​in the center of the eyeball begins to charge, it can emit a sharp scorching ray, which gives it a good means of attack.

The goblin took out a strangely shaped metal hat from his bosom and put it on his head. The top of the hat was equipped with a thought wave amplifier, so that even if the eyeball fighter was three or five miles away, it could always remotely control it. The front of the metal hat was equipped with a single-lens goggle full of strange sci-fi feeling, which could project everything that the eyeball fighter "saw" onto this small lens, allowing the goblin to always grasp the "battlefield situation" around the eyeball fighter.

After making all preparations, with the order of Little Locke, the eyeball fighter rushed into the surrounding jungle with a roar. It was seen that it flexibly bypassed the dense branches and thick branches, avoided the hanging vines, and quickly disappeared into the depths of the black forest.

Little Locke held his breath and concentrated on controlling the eyeball fighter to shuttle quickly in the air of the black forest, flying at high speed while quickly scanning the jungle below.

Soon, Little Locke couldn't help but exclaimed softly

"Found it... In that direction, 3 miles away... There is a relatively hidden valley with water sources around, which is more suitable for camping..."

Pontar nodded with satisfaction.

Although this little goblin's combat ability is not very good, his small waist bag is filled with all kinds of strange magic equipment, each with unique special abilities. Overall evaluation, it is still a good adventure partner!

"Let's go, let's go there to rest for an hour before continuing on the road. We must arrive at the family's No. 3 camping site before dark, let's go..." Pontar's order made all the team members exclaim.

Everyone's pace immediately became lighter, just like their current mood.

The so-called family camping site is actually a camping site that Lord Bilis temporarily converted from the original nests of those lord-level monsters after destroying them. If all the apprentice teams adventuring in the Black Forest cannot find a more suitable and safe camping site, they can go to a nearby family camping site to seek temporary shelter.

There were protective magic arrays and clean resting places arranged by the wizard, which were much better than their sleeping in the open and eating hard bread every day. However, what satisfied the apprentices most was the safety there.

In the family camping site, they could light a bonfire, grill or cook some delicious food, and with clean and tidy beds, they could enjoy such treatment in the Black Forest. What higher requirements could they have!

…………

Deep in the Black Forest.

On the top of a low cliff, Bilis, dressed in a black robe, stood alone in the cold wind, letting the cold wind blow the corners of his robes.

When the shadow light apprentice team in the distance slowly approached the family camping site No. 3, Bilis finally turned his body and aimed the four green pupils of two large and two small under the shadow of the hood at a certain place in the vast jungle.

At this moment, within a hundred miles of the entire Black Forest, his eye bugs were densely covered.

Any wizard apprentice team that sneaks into the Black Forest seems to be alone and helpless, but in fact, everything they do is under the close surveillance of the insect wizard Bilis.

The family sent Bilis here not only to eliminate those stupid monster lords without brains, but also to let him secretly "protect" the new follow-up forces of these families.

Bilis will not rashly intervene in the normal training and exploration of the apprentice team. Even if the team is in danger, as long as the risk is still within an acceptable range, he does not need to take action.

After all, only when the apprentice team is at the brink of life and death can the apprentices draw nutrients for growth!

However, once the apprentice team encounters a powerful monster that cannot be defeated, or there is a catastrophe of annihilation, the insect wizard Bilis will secretly take action to save them from danger in a hidden way.

Of course, the family will never advertise such things.

Therefore, the tasks of the insect wizard Bilis are not only heavy, but also trivial. If he had not had the ubiquitous eyeworms and an astonishingly large number of powerful insect armies, it would be difficult for ordinary wizards to perform this kind of "underground nanny"-style protection mission!

Of course, in addition to the protection mission, the insect wizard Bilis also has the task of expelling those ferocious and brutal monsters.

And now, with the accidental discovery of an eyeworm in the distance, Bilis found the trace of a humanoid scorpion. This kind of monster with a strong insect style is actually the guy that Bilis is most interested in. From them, Bilis can always extract a lot of evolutionary factors that are helpful to him.

Bilis's dark green insect-like compound eyes flickered, and a rustling sound immediately came from the dark jungle under the cliff. With a strange swing of the dense leaves of the towering ancient trees, the translucent demon mantises quickly disappeared in the jungle in front of him.
