Welcome everyone to -< >-:. In the past, there was no problem with the potions when I was an apprentice, but now the potions that can also have an effect on the wizard's mental power are very different in value. The sobriety potion and the calming potion are only used by apprentices.

He had also reluctantly prepared a bottle of tranquilizing potion before. Although it was a substitute, drinking it had no effect at all. This also proved that there was indeed a huge gap between wizards and apprentices.

He sat quietly for a while, unable to find any good solution. In the end, the problem was that he had too few resources.

"No wonder so many wizards can only rely on water milling skills to grind slowly. There are still many wizards who have stayed at the original level for hundreds of years. It turns out that the speed of improvement after wizards are promoted is too slow... I guess those improvements

Extremely fast wizards should have concentrated a large amount of resources together to forcibly improve themselves. So why were ancient wizards able to quickly improve and become stronger, and communicate with countless unknown worlds?"

He was lost in thought.

Whether it was Liliana, Ram's mentor at the academy, or the wizards he had encountered before who were often hundreds of years old, it seemed that it would be difficult to improve without resources.

The exercise of mental power to become stronger actually relies entirely on the exercise of the organism itself. This is why the strength will always stagnate after being energized. Without the body, mental power cannot be strengthened and grown. Naturally, there is no way to go further.

The level of a wizard is almost entirely based on the level of witchcraft release, and releasing a witchcraft requires the corresponding mental power to be completed in one go. Therefore, mental power basically represents the actual level of the wizard.

Angelet thought for a long time, but did not come to any useful conclusions. However, he secretly made up his mind to explore the ancient wizard ruins if he had the chance.

The so-called ruins now, including the small island he visited before, are only ruins thousands of years ago. And the real ancient ruins are estimated to be only in the wider underground world, or in the distant and mysterious endless sea of ​​gems.

Only at such a depth can it be barely possible to find it.

Remove the black cloth covering the crystal lamp.

Angelet stretched out his right hand. A meat bag quickly emerged from the shoulder on the slightly silvery skin. The meat bag quickly moved to the palm of his hand, and then the skin slowly split open, revealing a bunch of black keys inside.

Pick up this bunch of keys.

Angelet stretched out his index finger and lightly touched the silver key ring.

There was a hiss. The key ring suddenly lit up, glowing with a white halo.

"Prepare to collect the mechanism for generating hallucination models." Angele muttered silently.

‘The 324th collection of hallucination mechanisms is ready.’ The chip immediately sent feedback.

Angelet's eyes narrowed slightly. The hand holding the key suddenly shook.

Wow...

The key made a crisp sound.

Angelet closed his eyes, and his palms felt warm.

When he opened his eyes again, the surroundings were completely dark.

He was still sitting on the same chair, but the surrounding environment became invisible.

Angelet could feel that in this darkness, he seemed to be the only source of light.

Woo...

A low roar like a leopard came from all directions.

Angelet stood up vigilantly. Three lines of silver metal slowly appeared on his cheeks. His eyes instantly lit up with blue fluorescence, with countless dots flowing rapidly through them, faintly emitting a bright blue halo in the darkness.

He suddenly took a step forward.

Snap!

The sound of crisp footsteps continued to spread and echo rapidly in the darkness.

In the darkness, with Anglie as the center, a red light spot was like countless open eyes. It quickly spread in all directions, as if it was contagious and polluted.

The red light spots spread rapidly on the ground until they were so far away that the edges could not be seen.

laugh!!

A trace of blood suddenly appeared on Angelet's right arm, and scarlet blood slowly flowed down the skin.

"The first stage?" Angelet narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly raised his left hand. The hallucination mark on the palm of his hand was black and shiny.

laugh!

Another thin sound came from behind Angelet.

Snap!

The mark on the palm of his hand blocked the oncoming attack. An unusually hot feeling suddenly came from the mark.

One of the red eyes on the ground was instantly extinguished.

Hee hee hee hee...!

In an instant, a series of piercing sounds rushed towards Angele one after another. A whimpering roar also sounded in the darkness.

Black lines continuously circled Angele and stabbed him quickly. But every time, he blocked it with the hallucination mark of his left hand at extremely fast speed.

Soon, as time passed, there were fewer and fewer red eyes on the ground.

Snap!

After the last crisp sound, Angelet fell into darkness again.

He was breathing heavily, sweat pooled on his forehead and temples, and dripped from his chin. There were blood stains all over his body and face. After taking a few deep breaths, he closed his eyes again.

Opened suddenly.

He has sat back on his original chair.

The surrounding environment has not changed at all. But everything, tables, crystal lamps, carpets, bookshelves, etc., everything, including walls and floors.

They are all aging slowly.

Everything is quickly becoming extremely old at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The mahogany tabletop quickly became covered with a layer of white ash, and the color changed from dark red to light red. Some fine cracks appeared at the edges.

The crystal light illuminated by the crystal lamp became weaker and weaker, and gradually dimmed completely.

Carpets, floors, and ceilings gradually turned from smooth and flat to rough and dull.

Angelet sat on the chair, his expression unchanged at all.

"The second stage..." He raised his right hand.

The originally smooth and flat light silver skin was slowly becoming dull and dull. A trace of wrinkles slowly appeared, accompanied by a few black and brown age spots.

"This time, I will never fall here again!" A stern look appeared on Angelet's face.

He stood up slowly, raised his left hand suddenly, and grasped it with the palm of his hand.

"Hades! Mephilia!!" He shouted loudly.

The hallucination mark on the palm of his hand suddenly bloomed into a black halo. A chaotic noise instantly filled the entire room.

The halo formed a ball of black light, and something seemed to be struggling to come out.

As time passed by, wrinkles gradually appeared on the skin of Angelet's face. Dots of crow's feet stretched out from the corners of his eyes. The whole person also appeared slightly stooped. But he still raised his left hand high, maintaining the black light.

ball.

I don't know how long it took.

hiss!!

The ball of light was finally torn apart.

A huge creature slowly crawled out of the black halo.

It has a female body, giant eagle wings, and a long snake tail.

The banshee's body was covered with black metal-like scales, and she kept spitting out long red snake messages from her mouth. She made a hissing sound like a snake. The body that was seven to eight meters long seemed to have no bones.

Slowly twisting and crawling.

Angele reached out and gently stroked the head of the Socra Giant Eagle Banshee, and the aging skin on his body immediately began to return to its original state.

The banshee's golden beast eyes narrowed slightly, and her long black snake tail surrounded Angele in a circle and coiled it in the center.

Socra Giant Eagle Banshee. Her face is extremely delicate and beautiful, but her skin is black metal with a cold and hard luster. Her hair is a cluster of black tentacles that are constantly twisting and moving. She has no hands, only a pair of black eagle wings.

, covered with steely black feathers.

hiss.....

The banshee hissed with joy, her upper body pressed tightly against Angele and kept surrounding her, like a pet.

Angele raised his left arm. The banshee's body quickly shrunk and turned into a strange snake over one meter long, wrapped around her left arm. She lay affectionately on Angele's left shoulder.

"Finally successful..." A smile slowly appeared on Angelet's face.

He slowly left the table, stood in front of the window, and gently pushed open the glass window.

Outside the window, there are still forests and lakes. But the sky is as pale yellow as dusk. Everything is dyed with a layer of dusk and twilight.

The world outside seemed to be lifeless. It was dead and quiet.

"Is this the illusionary world that the key led me into? Or is it the world that the last bloodline of the Socratic Eagle Banshee finally opened by using the properties of the key?" Angelet murmured in a low voice.

"Tell me, where is this place?" He looked sideways at the banshee on his left shoulder.

"Hiss... nightmare... nightmare..." the banshee responded intermittently.
To be continued...
