This wizard only wants to take students

Not good!

Many half-elves and wizard apprentices were frightened. They looked at the rapidly recovering magic beast and felt fearless. Many people thought of the roars of Lucian and other third-level wizard apprentices before, and hurriedly took out the magic plants they had hidden in their hands and threw them on the ground like hot potatoes.

But some people had despair in their eyes, because they had just used the magic plants as soon as they got them.

After all, for these second-level wizard apprentices who have been exploited by their mentors for many years, they knew very well that if these precious magic plants were not used in time, they might eventually be taken away by their mentors. Although using them on the spot might waste some of the medicinal effects and even cause certain poisoning to the body, they could not control it.

But now, they could feel that this magic beast, whose pressure was much stronger than that of the third-level wizard apprentice, had set its sights on them.

"Run!" Someone roared, trying to find an exit to escape. But the next moment, a long tongue appeared behind him.

The next moment, he was pulled backwards by a terrifying dragging force, and finally fell into the stomach of the giant frog Kux under the tongue. Soon, screams and wails came from Kux's stomach, as well as the cry for help from the wizard apprentice just now.

"Uncle Qi, save me! Save me!" A half-elf screamed in fear, because the giant creature had already looked at him at this time, and its mouth opened, and its tongue had already stuck to her head.

"Uncle Qi..." The half-elf screamed in fear.

At this time, the goblin leader waved his hand, and a wooden thorn directly attacked Kux's long tongue.

However, her attack fell on Kux's body, but it had no effect at all, and it didn't even attract Kux's attention. It still slowly dragged the half-elf towards its mouth in fear at its own pace.

"Alas." The half-elf named Qi shook his head and sighed, but waved his hand, and a wooden thorn pierced into the half-elf's forehead, directly crushing her spiritual sea, which was also a quick death for her before she was swallowed alive by Kux.

Quietly, the other wizard apprentices and half-elfs were all listening to the horrifying struggle and painful groans coming from Kux's stomach.

Many people had fear and worry on their faces. After all, they had just collected the magic plants in the garden. Although they had thrown them away, no one could say whether Kux would come to trouble them again after judging those guys who still hid the magic plants.

At this time, Lilia was holding Adeline, her eyes extremely alert.

However, Lucian narrowed his eyes. He looked at the giant frog Kux who was still "calling the roll" at this time, but he thought of the sacrifice that needed to be offered to the Moon Wolf Tuso.

Fortunately, the execution of the giant frog Kux stopped after it dealt with the three apprentices who hid the magic plant. It immediately lay down on the spot to rest, as if it was digesting the "food" in its stomach.

However, as long as you get slightly closer to Kux, you can hear the struggle and cry of the apprentices in its stomach, and even a small wail and some sound similar to splashing liquid.

Many apprentices were sad and lowered their heads slightly.

Snap--

Suddenly, two badges similar to the purple leaf talisman were spit out from Kux's mouth. The badges were round, and the patterns inside were the faces of the two apprentices who were swallowed without being killed.

"Sacrifice!" Lucian's pupils shrank, but he was the first to act and rushed to the two badges.

And other wizard apprentices also reacted. Maybe they didn't know what this kind of coin-like item was used for, but sometimes, it's better to keep it in your hand without using it than to have it in your hand when you know its use!

Lucian was surrounded by a shadowy aura. With the help of the witchcraft [Shadow Stealth], he quickly merged into the shadow underground. However, he took one of the prototype badges in his hand with a reaction speed that was much faster than others.

Facing Lucian who had already sneaked into the shadow, the others hesitated for a while and could only fight for another badge that was still outside. In the end, with the cooperation of the goblin leader, it was taken by the half-elf named Qi.

"You just killed a companion and wasted a badge." Lilia was most afraid of Kux because she had just collected magic plants. She was also the farthest away from him, so she was a little unlucky at this time and missed the badge.

However, she saw the secret of the production of this badge, and therefore blamed Qi who had just killed the half-elf, hoping to force him to give up the badge just now.

"The badges we got are ours." The goblin leader stopped Lilia with a cold look in his eyes. "No one knew there was such a thing as a badge. My people did nothing wrong. Besides, now both of us have one badge each. It's fair."

Lillia looked at the half-goblins who were bursting with momentum at this time, glanced at Lucian who had lifted the shadow, and then looked at the other weak wizard apprentices with a slight flicker in her eyes.

"Hmph." She snorted lightly and turned away.

"Mina, when we leave later, remember to take the ice snowflakes. That Kux should only move inside the garden. If you are faster, I will also give you a magic tool for acceleration. There is still a chance." Lilia returned to her seat and looked at her student.

"Teacher... I..." Mina's face was pale. At this time, she could still hear the wailing inside Kux's stomach. Lilia's action was undoubtedly an experiment on her life.

"No need, Lilia." Bennett looked at several second-level wizard apprentices with sad faces at this time, and then looked at Lilia and shook his head slightly. "I guess there will be other ways to get the badge later. What's more, what if we leave with the ice snowflakes, and that Kux will not chase us but kill all of us?"

Lilia ignored Bennett and looked at Lucian. It was obvious that she was threatening to make Lucian give up the special badge in his hand.

Lucian's right hand holding the "sacrifice" exerted a little force. He knew the value of the badge in his hand, but now was not the time to tear his face with Lilia, after all, there were still those half-elves watching covetously.

Moreover, when there was still a choice, Lucian did not want Lilia to do what she said.

If this giant frog of Kux could leave the garden and would keep chasing them, then the secret realm would become extremely dangerous.

"Lilia, I remember you have a copy of the Song of the Deep Sea." After a brief silence, Lucian looked at Lilia and put forward his own conditions.

The Song of the Deep Sea is a special natural wine. It can be taken directly to improve mental strength, or it can be used as a raw material and combined with other materials to prepare a potion that can assist the third-level wizard apprentice to become a formal wizard. It is more valuable than [Moonlight Praise] and is an extremely precious material.

However, inside the secret realm, the value of this temporarily unused material is naturally not as good as the sacrificial badge in Lucian's hand. After all, these special badges may be the "credentials" to enter the core of the secret realm.

Bennett opened his mouth, obviously a little moved, but he looked at Lilia, who was obviously a little mentally abnormal at this time, and finally didn't say much.

Lilia stared at Lucian, with a hint of violence in her eyes. "Okay, then you have to keep it for me."

She took out a wine bottle and quickly exchanged it with Lucian.

"Lord Lucian, I am Gagarin..." At this time, a mental force carefully connected with Lucian through witchcraft. Gagarin's attitude in this secret communication can be said to be extremely humble. Although he didn't say anything core, Lucian knew that this was to seek shelter.

After all, the Mina incident just now can be said to have made her students feel a strong crisis, and now they all began to look for new backers for themselves.

Lucian didn't promise anything, but just promised to take care of it within his ability and ended the communication.

But he also gained some useful information, that is, Lilia's doll Adeline, which Gagarin had never seen Lilia use before.

This is either the treasure that Lilia has been keeping in the bottom of the box, or a deliberate "gift" or "trade" by a formal wizard for this operation.

"Unlucky Lilia." Lucian glanced at Lilia who was studying the badge and shook his head slightly. At this time, he was too lazy to think too much about a guy whose cognition had been distorted.

Perhaps it was just like what Lilia said herself - she was just temporarily keeping the sacrificial badge for Lucian.

Because they were afraid of the giant frog Kux who was "taking a nap" at this time, the apprentices were very gentle and disciplined when looking for the exit.

In fact, the exit was not difficult to find. After all, this garden originally had a small wooden door with beautiful decorations. And now there are only two ways in front of many apprentices - open the door, or try to climb the wall.

After a brief discussion, a half-elf came to the wooden door nervously, then carefully pushed the door open with his hand, and then slowly and carefully walked forward two steps.

Everything seemed normal, but when the half-elf wanted to return, it seemed that there was an invisible diaphragm blocking him. Even his voice could not be heard clearly. He could only guess what he said through his constantly opening and closing lips and gestures.

This made many apprentices hesitate and want to observe again. Lucian took Carly and walked quickly out of the garden.

The moment he walked out of the garden, Lucian's eyes were replaced by a vast expanse of white, which made him close his eyes slightly. After a slight adjustment, Lucian opened his eyes again and observed the new environment inside the ruins of the Cloud Kingdom.

"So... so many mushrooms!" Carly exclaimed.

And this is exactly the most realistic portrayal of the environment in front of them. Looking around, there are huge silver-white mushroom colonies with a height of nearly two meters. Their silver mycelium, like a white gauze skirt, covers the ground. From a distance, it even feels like a silver-clad snow.
