The Wizarding Age

Wizard world, Ice Wind Territory in the North.

White Tower.

After these days of recuperation, the once desolate and cold Ice Wind Territory has changed its appearance.

A small village appeared on the edge of a sparse forest area 300 steps away from the White Tower. The houses were all made of logs, which looked heavy and solid. There were about thirty or forty households scattered around. There was a small circular square in the center of the town, and only a few shops and special buildings were scattered around.

Thanks to the blessing of the Wizard Tower, the cold wind blowing from the east had become much warmer before entering the town. The temperature in Ice Wind Territory, which is usually minus 17 or 8 degrees, has now been stabilized at around zero degrees.

Such a temperature can no longer interfere with normal outdoor activities of humans!

It is difficult to carry out any farming and animal husbandry activities in Ice Wind Territory, so most of the people living here are hunters. They will choose to go to the edge of the Black Forest in groups on sunny days to hunt some wild beasts or low-level monsters there.

Now with the appearance of the White Tower, the monsters near the Icewind Territory have retreated to the depths of the Black Forest, and these hunters have lost their hunting grounds and prey for their livelihood. However, as more and more Crimson Wizards and apprentices go to the depths of the Black Forest, these hunters simply settle near the White Tower, waiting for their employment and recruitment.

These controllers are undoubtedly the richest group!

As long as these masters are served well, a bag of gold coins that leak out casually is enough for their family to live happily and peacefully for several months.

It is dusk again.

This is often the time for the apprentice team to go on an adventure to the depths of the Black Forest to return.

If it is later, when night falls, most of the beasts and monsters begin to come out and move unscrupulously, and then walking in the Black Forest is undoubtedly an adventure. Therefore, before night falls, all teams that have not found a hidden camping spot must return to the White Tower to rest.

And this time is undoubtedly the most lively and noisy time in the town!

In the night, the seven members of the Shadow Light Team struggled out of the Black Forest and walked towards the town, talking and laughing all the way.

In the team, the five apprentices were still in the front, and the two hunters they temporarily hired were following behind, dragging a lion-like prey with a simple raft.

In just half a year, the Shadow Light Team has undergone tremendous changes.

As the captain, Pontar is still a quasi-witch, and his strength has not changed significantly, but the witch staff in his hand has changed from the wisdom staff that could only slightly increase mental power at the beginning to the current shadow magic wand. This magic wand, which can effectively reduce the difficulty of Pontar casting shadow witchcraft, cost him 200 magic crystals, which is almost more than 1/3 of his magic crystal income in the past six months.

However, with this magic wand, some shadow witchcraft that was originally difficult to cast can also be cast smoothly. This is simply a wonderful thing for a quasi-witch who lives by witchcraft.

As for the other team members, the physical training apprentice Daxo is still a senior apprentice, the transformation apprentice Blanco is still an intermediate apprentice, but the other two have undergone surprising changes.

The beautiful plant apprentice Eko is now a senior apprentice, and looking at her full of witchcraft equipment, she is obviously very favored. The little goblin Locke is the one who has changed the most, and is now a senior goblin magician. Behind it, there is a puppet magic machine that squeaks and makes noises all the time.

Don’t look at this puppet magic machine that is only more than 1 meter tall and looks thin and fragile. But in a real battlefield, the effect it can play is enough to rival 3-5 intermediate apprentices.

First of all, it is a super "monster sucker"!

Any monster attracted by the team will definitely attack this noisy little guy who keeps making harsh noises.

Secondly, this little guy’s ability to escape and avoid attacks is really first-class!

I don't know how Little Locke researched and developed this puppet magic machine. Although its attack ability is extremely weak, its ability to dodge attacks is amazingly strong.

As long as it encounters an enemy attack, it will instantly turn into a spider-shaped puppet beast with eight metal legs, and then drill around in the dense forests and bushes as if walking on flat ground. The monsters lured by it can only chase it in vain, and don't even think about touching its body.

In this way, the members of the Shadow Team can output comfortably and capture powerful beasts and monsters one by one.

Even if there are occasional mistakes, the little guy is torn into pieces by agile or flying monsters, as long as Little Locke, the goblin magic machine master, is there, no matter how serious the damage is, it can be repaired.

It is precisely because of all kinds of strange combat magic machines that the little goblin Locke can quickly grow into a senior apprentice in just half a year. This also allows Little Locke to successfully enter the main force of the Shadow Team.

As soon as the Shadow Team entered the town, they were surrounded by a group of people who had been waiting for a long time. At the call of the hunters Hank and Thor, everyone worked together to help move the body of the fire lion on the simple raft into the town.

The fire lion is also a common low-level monster in the Black Forest area. Seriously speaking, it also has the powerful strength of the first-level primary. But a monster is a monster. Although its strength is strong enough, its brain intelligence obviously has not kept up with the improvement of its strength.

So, such a wizard-level fire monster was killed by a group of wizard apprentices of average level but not advanced level.

The most valuable thing on the fire lion is the fire crystal core and the warm and soft fiery red hair.

A wizard-level fire crystal core is estimated to be worth more than 150 magic crystals. And the fire lion hair is one of the basic materials for making the flame cloak, and its initial value is about 30 magic crystals. In addition, there are the fangs, bones, flesh and blood of the fire lion, and the whip... These are all spoils that can be exchanged for magic crystals.

As for the fire lion meat, it is not a good ingredient because of its tough and sour texture.

However, it is also a hot commodity that many body refining apprentices like to buy because it is cheap and easy to get.

The adult fire lion hunted by the shadow team can harvest about 200 kilograms of meat if it is carefully decomposed. The senior body-refining apprentice Daxo in the team has reserved 100 kilograms, and the cost of buying meat will be deducted from his magic crystal income this time.

A highly professional slaughterhouse has been built above the town.

A fire lion weighing more than 200 kilograms was sent in. It took less than a quarter of an hour to be carefully and perfectly slaughtered and decomposed into various semi-finished products, and then returned to the Shadow Team in different categories. The Shadow Team paid only 3 magic crystals and some unnecessary corners.

Arriving in the town is actually the end.

All slaughtering, classification, valuation, and listing prices are completed in the town.

The information collected here can be transmitted to the White Tower and the entire Crimson Family at the same time. Any wizard who is interested in these spoils will directly take pictures of them. At that time, the transportation and storage matters will also be handled by a special person sent by the town, and the Shadow Team only needs to wait for the magic crystals to be put into the bag.

Such work assignment undoubtedly greatly reduced the logistics and supply pressure of the apprentice team, allowing them to devote more time to the honing and improvement of combat power. For most wizard apprentices, the collection of witchcraft knowledge is important, but it is undoubtedly more important to transform each piece of knowledge into corresponding combat power in a timely manner!

After delivering the prey, the two hired hunters returned home with two bags of heavy gold coins. The apprentices embraced each other and came to the only tavern in the town.

Here, they met another team of apprentices who were also celebrating with a toast - Vampire Fangs.

Just from the name, you can hear that this is a combat team composed entirely of apprentice-level vampires. Their team has seven members, all of whom are handsome men and beautiful women in luxurious robes, and there are also blood elves with pointed ears and fangs.

Although these guys don't have the diverse witchcraft methods of other apprentice teams, they can freely enter and exit and hunt in the Black Forest with the vampires' agile bodies and the bat demon transformation at will. Especially with the Crimson War, Lady Mary made great contributions within the family, and these low-level vampires also rose with the tide.

At this moment, the vampire clan has become the largest force in the Crimson Family. Even Tigule, who has the support of an entire secondary plane behind him, can't be compared with her.

Vampires, Witches of Fate and Mechanical Goblins, these three forces occupy more than 80% of the resources and status of the Crimson Family, supporting the entire Crimson Family with a tripartite trend. Of course, this is just some crude views of the lower-level people.

Only those Crimson high-level people can know some deeper secrets. In the Crimson Family, the real first force is not the vampire clan on the surface, but the third-level brain monster Gazlowe who is not conspicuous.

In the Crimson War, the Level 3 Brain Monster Gazlowe only showed his back slightly, and defeated the wizard coalition of the five major families. If the head of the family Grimm was willing to transfer it from the Lance plane back to the wizard world, the Crimson Family might instantly jump from a small family to a large family, just one step away from those super families.

If there is any flaw in the current Crimson Family, it is that it still lacks high-level wizards who can calm the situation. At least, without a Level 3 wizard in charge, the Crimson Family can't think of becoming a large family recognized by outsiders.

This point cannot be made up by relying on the number of magic warriors!
