Chapter 119 The Eve of Leaving (Please collect)
Night.
The Black Swamp is pitch black.
Insects and birds chirp from time to time.
In the room, the kerosene lamp swayed gently, casting a soft halo.
Karl, who was wearing a wizard's robe, held a quill in his hand, dipped it in ink, and wrote on the yellowed paper.
Write a letter.
He still prefers to do it himself instead of relying on the help of a secondary mage. This seems to be more sincere.
It is also better to express your feelings.
Dear friend Jenny,
May your days be filled with sunshine and peace, like the flowers blooming on this spring day. I am here to write this letter, hoping to convey my deep thoughts and blessings.
The last time I received your letter was a few months ago. Time passed by in a hurry.
I often think of the wonderful times we spent together, when we walked together and discussed our dreams for the future.
Now, although we are thousands of miles apart, the blessings of friends are always connected with you.
Life here is full of challenges and difficulties, and we often have to face wars and riots, but I believe that as long as we maintain firm faith and courage, we will be able to get through these difficult times.
I hope even more that you can live a peaceful and happy life, away from these troubles and sufferings.
In my last letter, you said that you had made friends and made progress in your studies, which was really pleasing.
Also.
I often miss the food you cook. Compared with your beautiful singing voice, your hidden food talent is equally amazing.
I hope that one day, we can get together again, share the good times we spent together when we were young, and talk about the experience of being apart these years.
Finally, I would like to express my thoughts and blessings to you again.
In the coming days, in order to escape the war, I will go to a distant place. I may not come back for a long, long time, but no matter where you are, I hope that your every day will be full of sunshine and warmth. May your days be filled with sunshine and warmth. Your dreams can come true.
Please believe that no matter where we are, our friendship will last forever in our hearts.
Your friend,
Carl.
Date:...
Fold the letter and put it in the envelope, seal it with wax and put it aside.
After thinking about it, Karl took out another piece of paper.
Cousin Ewinnie:
Cousin.
It has been several months since I last wrote. I wonder how you are doing and whether Kingsley has remarried...
I will be traveling far away soon.
Under the oil lamp.
Karl’s eyes were filled with thoughts and a touch of nostalgia.
Relatives, friends, hometown, as we grow older and experience competition, we always feel reluctant to let go.
As I write, I feel a little crazy.
…………
The Fat Dwarf’s Tavern.
It is said that the tavern owner has dwarf blood.
No one knows whether it is true or not, but it is true that the boss is short and strong.
The wine
is also made very well.
Today is a small gathering of members of the Star Secret Society, only a few people came.
“Cheers!”
Sibel’s face glowed red and he raised his glass.
"Peng!"
The four people from the Star Secret Society raised their wine glasses at the same time, and both men and women drank the wine in one gulp.
“We are separated this time. I don’t know when we can meet again next time.”
Modi Li, who has not fully recovered from her injury, put down her wine glass and sighed:
“Originally I thought everyone would go to the wizarding world, but I didn’t expect... I was the only one who could go there.”
"We would like to." Omar shook his head:
"There are only twenty places. You are a disciple of the official wizard and you have enough merit to go."
"We..."< br>
"Carl and I are going to the Magic Forest."
"I'll stay." Sibel said:
"I will wait until the next batch in ten years to go to the Wizarding World."
Karl nodded lightly.
"Omar." Modili looked sideways:
"You really want to go to the Magic Forest. It is said that it is not safe there. It is better to wait for the next ten years to go with Sibel. Wizarding World. "
Omar and Sibel are both senior wizard apprentices. After almost all official wizards leave, their status in Black Swamp will become very high, and it is almost certain that they will become more powerful in the next ten years. Quota.
Especially Sibel.
She is now the acting president of the Star Secret Society and the leader of the inspection team. She has dozens of wizard apprentices following her, forming a vague force in the Swamp Alliance.
“No.”
Omar shook his head:
“I don’t like to do tasks. Even if I stay, my achievements in ten years may not be as good as the others. To the top twenty.”
"If you go to the Enchanted Forest, you can directly join the Six-Ring Tower, and you can also get the teachings of an official wizard."
Her eyes lit up slightly when she said this.
Her mentor is just an intermediate wizard apprentice, and she can reach this point entirely due to her own efforts.
With the guidance of a famous teacher and sufficient resources, Omar would definitely have become a senior wizard apprentice a few years earlier.
“Wizard Marian has agreed to accept me as a disciple and provide thirty hours of free lessons.”
"Of course."
Oma said:
"When we get to the Magic Forest, I need to help her with things."
Modi Li's eyes showed regret, but he also understood her choice, and then turned his attention to Karl.
"Karl."
"I thought the two of us could go there together."
"Oh!" Karl shook his head:
"Forget it!"
"Peng!" Sibel said fiercely He slapped the table and his pretty face tightened:
“It is official that wizards bully people. My junior brother’s achievements rank among the top three. He should have gone to the wizarding world.”
"It doesn't matter." Karl smiled:
"My wizard talent is too low. Even if I go to Kalim Continent, I won't be able to join the big forces."
"Go to the Magic Forest now. He is a member of the Sixth Ring Tower, not to mention he also got a bottle of Grimm. Water, speaking of which, I took advantage."
"It's best if you think so." Mo Dili nodded:
"I'm worried that you will complain in your heart and offend the official. Wizard, unfortunately... I joined White Fang Castle."
He does not have the right to decide which force to join, the decision lies in the hands of his mentor.
“No matter where we go or which force we join, we will always be a member of the Secret Society of the Stars.” Sibel picked up the wine glass:
“I wish each of us can become Official wizard!"
"Do it!"
"Do it!"
Three people from the Star Secret Society were determined to leave the Black Swamp this time, Modili, Omar and Karl.
Sibel is not in a hurry.
She has just advanced to become a senior wizard apprentice and still needs a few years to settle down. Going to the wizarding world will not change anything.
The same goes for the next ten years.
So I am just a little sorry to stay.
Others also have their own choices. This party can be regarded as a breakup banquet, and everyone must go their separate ways.
"Modi Li, if you leave, what will happen to your relatives? They will definitely not be able to go to the wizarding world."
"I left them some magic stones, gold coins, and others. I’m not worried about people, I’m just worried about my brother. He’s just a mortal.”
“Don’t worry, I will take care of him.” Sibel patted his chest and promised:
“Your fiancée... …”
"No longer the fiancée." Modili shook his head:
"Sibel, which force do you want to join in the next ten years? White Fang Castle or the Sixth Ring Tower?"
"Six Let’s go to the tower. Omar and my junior brother are here. I’m really sorry that I can’t come with you.” .
…………
The next day.
Althea comes to visit.
She brought a thick stack of things and knocked on the door of the guest room where Karl rented.
“Sit.”
Karl, who was still drunk, had red eyes and poured a pot of cold water into his stomach to sober up.
"In your current state, I doubt whether you can handle things."
Alsiya shook his head, pulled up a chair and sat down:
" These are the valuation of your property, real estate shares, goods for sale, and some witchcraft materials."
"The total value is about six hundred magic stones."
Karl nodded slowly.
The largest part of his investment is Hetty's real estate. Since he is leaving, he must get rid of it.
Coupled with the remaining magic stones from purchasing high-level magic items, the total assets have exceeded one thousand magic stones.
This is an amazing number!
"Also..."
Althea took out a piece of paper full of words:
"Do you really want to acquire these things? Although the Magic Forest does not belong to the wizarding world, there is a lot of witchcraft materials. I asked about it, You can buy more things with the same magic stone over there.”
“Take it!” Karl rubbed his forehead:
“I need it urgently.”
I need it urgently. ?
You are leaving soon, what else is needed urgently? Is it possible that you are afraid of being in danger if you go to the Magic Forest? But the things you bought don’t have many destructive magical items?
Althiya shook her head, but didn’t ask any more questions.
After all, she is a businesswoman, and Karl is willing to spend money with her, so there is no reason to refuse.
"I'm already buying magic items, talismans, or talismans that can mask the aura. Such things are not cheap."
"I can buy them for you, powerful talismans. Four, but the price is one hundred and fifty magic stones.”
Because of Cologne's retaliation and the continuation of assassination missions, the price of the talisman is also rising.
Forty magic stones have been reached.
Four coins and one hundred and fifty coins are considered the market price.
“Okay!”
Karl nodded.
"The four talismans are Continuous Fireball, Powerful Disease, Gravity Field and Ice Explosion. They are all relatively rare existences among talismans." Olseya said:
"You will not suffer. "
"I believe you." Carl closed his eyes and sat on the chair. Lean your upper body back and let your mind go:
"In one month, I will go to the Magic Forest. What do you think I should bring with me?"
"In addition to magic stones, You don’t need to bring anything.” Althea shrugged:
"Everything there is cheaper than here. If there were no time and number restrictions on going to the Magic Forest, I would have wanted to go there myself."
"It's all cheaper..." Karl fell into deep thought:
"There are always advantages here that aren't there, right?"
"What?" Althea shook her head:
"Witchcraft materials? Demonized items? Talismans? I heard that Even the inherited weapons will be sold.”
"No!" Karl opened his eyes:
"There is something that is cheaper here."
"What thing." Althea was stunned.
“Knowledge!” Karl said:
“A few magic stones can buy a witchcraft, and a dozen magic stones can buy an apprentice inheritance.”
"With dozens of magic stones, you can buy the inheritance of an advanced wizard!"
"Although I don't know the situation over there, I guess it's definitely not possible!"
Alseya Eyes light up.
"Help me acquire witchcraft knowledge." Karl knocked on the table:
"Acquire all knowledge!"
"I have some things to deal with in the next period of time. I may not show up, so I will trouble you."
"Don't worry!" Althea nodded heavily:
"I will definitely let you Satisfied.”

*
The once free port has long been in ruins.
On the ruins.
Countless zombie-like sharks wandered back and forth, roaring from time to time and pounced on the bugs emerging from the ground.
There are only normal creatures alive here underground.
Horrible monsters are entrenched in the ruins, using the wandering sharks as food.
For some unknown reason, the sharks did not resist the monster's devouring, and even took the initiative to feed the monster that was inconvenient to move.
Somewhere on the top of a mountain in the distance.
Nearly a thousand people gathered.
Three hundred of the cavalry are death knights from His Highness Mevia, and the other six hundred are the 'people' of Rapid City.
"Knight John."
Poseidon Hawk raised his head and said:
"There are hundreds of thousands of sharks here. Ordinary sharks are comparable to knight attendants. Some mutant sharks are not weak. As a great knight, he also possesses considerable wisdom. "
"According to my observation, the number of mutated sharks is at least hundreds!"
"There are also various alien species, many of which are legendary creatures. It is impossible for us. Their opponents.”
"Where is the location of the City Lord's Mansion?" John said in a cold voice:
"Point it out!"
Hoke tightened his hands. The other party didn't take him seriously at all, he just treated him as a servant and didn't care what he said.
Actually.
The attitude of the death knight has been obvious along the way.
Aloof, indifferent...
"Yes."
Taking a deep breath, suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, Hawke stretched out his hand in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion. Refers to:
“Over there.”
"The building surrounded by several legendary creatures is the city lord's palace."
"Captain." One of the death knights rode closer and whispered:
"That person's breath is still there. "
"It should have inspired the pressure in the Grand Duke's bloodline to prevent these evil gods from approaching."
"Oh?" Under the devil's mask, John's eyes lit up. ：
"Not dead?"
"Very good!"
His voice was filled with excitement, or... greed?
"Knight John." Hawke's expression changed drastically:
"The City Lord's Mansion is in the center of the ruins, surrounded by so many sharks and legendary creatures. If you get close, you will die."
"Let's just investigate the situation here. There is no need to go to the City Lord's Mansion."
"Huh?"
As soon as he finished speaking, John's eyes turned cold, and one of his hairs glowed black. The long whip of smoke whipped hard.
"Bang!"
The crisp explosion made Hawke fall to his knees directly, and a deep scar was drawn on his back.
There was no blood in the scar, but a dark black depression, like a twisted centipede.
As a peak knight, Hawke was struck by this whip, and his whole body trembled crazily, and he let out a painful wail.
"President!"
"Hawke!"
"How can you hit people casually?"
"..."
The people from the Poseidon Association shouted when they saw this.
Hoke's status in the Poseidon Society is very respected. Seeing him being bullied, many people's expressions changed.
“Boom!”
The ground suddenly shook.
Dozens of death knights rushed out in an instant, crashing into the crowd with long whips, and whipped the shouting people.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The whip shadow was heavy, and the cavalry charge was unstoppable. With screams, dozens of people came one after another. Fall to your knees.
There was silence.
The people from the Poseidon Association turned pale and wanted to get angry but didn't dare, while the others' eyes flickered.
"Just do what you're told and don't talk so much nonsense."
John bowed his head on the horse:
"Go, take fifty people over to have a look. Road.”
What?
Hawke looked up, his expression changed drastically.
"What?"
John's eyes narrowed, his right hand pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist and looked at him:
"Don't want to go?"
An invisible sense of murder permeated the scene, and a single word 'no' could usher in a killing spree.
"Yes."
Hoke sweated on his forehead, forced himself to stand up, and picked out fifty people from the crowd to walk towards the Port of Freedom.
Compared with the hundreds of thousands of sharks, fifty people are like raindrops blending into the sea, inconspicuous.
“Guardian.”
The Blasphemous Knight Yana approached Karl and spoke in a low voice:
"I am not the opponent named John. There are three people like me in their team."
"Oh!"
Karl raised his eyebrows:
" Really?”
Yana’s meaning was obvious, that is, to warn Carl not to contradict John, otherwise the consequences would be very troublesome.
And people like her...
‘Sacred Blood Warrior! ’
‘It seems that even without the blessing of the gods and the blood of the Grand Duke, the people of this world have still found the path to legend, but both the blasphemous knights and the divine-blooded warriors have great flaws. ’
‘The profane knight has a short lifespan and is easy to mutate, while the divine blood warrior must rely on the blood of the Grand Duke to advance, and there is a limit on the number. ’
“唳!”
A group of bat ghosts were the first to discover Hawke and his party. They let out a piercing scream and flew out from the roof of the ruins.
These monsters with human bodies and bat-winged heads emit sound waves and rush towards the crowd from a distance.
Hoke is experienced and leads the people around an arc to approach the Port of Freedom, while shooting the bat ghost.
However, their movements still attracted the attention of the sharks, and thousands of sharks surrounded them from all directions.
At the same time.
A strange mist emerged from the shark's body and spread around.
These strange fogs contain waterworks' viruses. If they stay in them for a long time, they will mutate.
"Retreat!"
Hoke's eyes widened and he shouted loudly, directing everyone to retreat before the sharks could complete the encirclement.
On the top of the mountain.
John's eyes flashed.
'According to the records at the end of the Gods' Song, the descendants of the God of Evil Water are divided into ordinary sharks, blue-eyed sharks and red-eyed sharks. There is no legendary red-eyed shark born yet. In addition, this The evil god also has the ability to drive monsters and control souls, but these are just fragmentary attributes of the evil god's will. , shouldn’t be too strong...'
Thinking about it, he immediately looked at the Dragon King Chamber of Commerce:
"You!"
"Go fifty more people, from Approach from the other direction and lead the nearby sharks to other places.”
"Yes." Connie took a step forward, bowed in response, and winked at Quincy behind him.
"I'll do it."
Karl shook his head slightly and stopped the two of them:
"I'll go over and take a look first."
"Elder Karl !" Connie looked surprised.
In his impression, Karl always acted cautiously and never took risks.
Quincy looked surprised.
In fact, if it weren't for the death knight watching along the way, he might have sneaked away long ago.
“Let’s go!”
Karl randomly selected fifty people and headed towards the Port of Freedom.
Yana, wearing a black robe, was still by her side.
“Beep!”
Similarly.
The first one to notice the crowd was the bat ghost.
“These things don’t seem to be observing with eyes, but something else. Could it be ultrasound?”
Karl thought for a moment and looked sideways at Yana.
During this period, he has gained some understanding of the Blasphemy Knight, but he has not yet truly seen the opponent's methods.
Now is the opportunity.
“Whoa!”
Yana pulled out the giant sword from behind, and with a slight shake of the sword, it slowly turned into a giant bow.
Dragon-killing fantasy sword!
The standard weapon of the Blasphemous Knight.
It can be transformed into various weapons according to the user's wishes. It is said to be the handiwork of the God of Craftsman.
“Drink!”
Yana shouted in her mouth, the bowstring was fully drawn in an instant, and four blazing white arrows appeared on the bowstring out of thin air.
"Whoa!"
As she let go of the bowstring, the arrow shot into the sky and hit the bat ghost.
"Poof!"
The four bat ghosts were hit by arrows on the spot and fell from a high altitude.
Yana kept strumming the bow string, and the bat ghosts landed one after another.
The arrow was very fast, but its lethality was obviously not strong. The bat ghost that landed on the ground was not dead. It was still struggling to get up, and was then killed by the people who rushed up.
“Let’s go!”
After solving the bat ghost, everyone continued to move forward.
“Beep!”
As everyone got closer and closer to the Port of Freedom, a shrill strange roar also came from the front.
This voice sounded like some kind of instruction. When the sharks wandering around heard the voice, they turned to look at the crowd.
Next.
The dense crowd of sharks rushed over crazily, accompanied by the sweeping mist.
“Back off.”
Karl waved his hand, leading the shark to retreat.
"Whoa!"
A flash of blue light suddenly flashed through the crowd of sharks.
Blue-eyed shark?
Karl's eyes moved slightly, his hands quietly pressed the hilt of the broadsword, and his eyes were firmly locked on the incoming figure.
"Peng!"
The ground beneath his feet suddenly exploded, and he rushed forward using the force.
Cut!
The great knight's perfect physique allowed him to rush out as fast as a sharp arrow that had taken off its string and shot out straight.
Zero Ring Witchcraft - Control Gravity.
The sharp decrease in gravity caused his speed to increase again.
Um?
Yana raised her eyebrows slightly.
This speed...
It is no worse than an ordinary legendary knight. He is worthy of being the guardian chosen by the Moon Goddess.
“When…”
Two broad swords and a pair of fists collided, sparks bursting out.
"Huh?"
Karl's eyes moved slightly, his body shape changed rapidly, and at the same time, the secondary mage's force field also fell on his opponent.
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
Combat Skill - Divine Sanction!
The broad swords fell in staggered cuts, and the shark flew directly backwards, and was slashed by the two swords in mid-air.
"Poof!"
The head fell to the ground, lifeless.
“This guy is much stronger than the one I met before. If that guy was comparable to the great knights, then this guy is the best among the great knights.”
"I am cultivating the top inheritance, and the great knight is perfect, but I still need to use witchcraft to solve it."
Putting away the broad sword, Karl waved to Yana behind him:
" Come here."
"Okay!"
Yana nodded and stepped closer.
"Huh..."
Karl took a deep breath, and his size instantly increased, transforming into a huge giant six and a half meters tall.
“You go first!”
He yelled at the others:
“I’ll hold them back!”
Said.
Excellent Dharma Seal - Regrettably!
"Boom!"
The ground within a few dozen meters around him suddenly rippled, and the sharks collapsed to the ground on the spot.
Next.
Countless stone thorns emerged from the ground, piercing the sharks one by one.
While the dust and smoke were flying and the situation was unclear, Karl swayed to shrink his size.
At the same time take out a magic item.
Hold your breath!
Silence!
The light is distorted!
The invisible force field quietly emerged, wrapping the two people in it, and their figures disappeared before the fog dissipated.
The distorted light made the two of them transparent to a certain extent.
Concentrating one's breath and being silent can restrain the body's aura and mental fluctuations, and also make the sound of footsteps invisible.
Even the sharks around him couldn't detect the abnormality, let alone the people on the mountain in the distance.
"Seal?"
A trace of curiosity appeared in Yana's eyes:
"A very unique seal."
Compared with the unique seal, she was more curious about Karl What are you going to do with all this effort?
What to do?
Of course, to collect great favors!
With the Death Knight to share the pressure, and a legendary Blasphemy Knight thug, coupled with the wizard's methods, Carl now just wants to find out the great grace hidden in the Port of Freedom before going to the Enchanted Forest. .
As for other people and the City Lord's Mansion...
It has nothing to do with him!
Please give me a monthly ticket! ! !
