Malcolm’s words were obviously threatening; unless Herag stays in Moonlight Forest all his life, Malcolm would attack once he cos out.
After considering, he still decided to leave temporarily.
The current Batty was difficult to deal with, making it almost impossible to capture Herag from his hands.
Malcolm glanced at Batty, and then rode on the Night Steed and flew away.
Batty stood on the spot watching him leave, not making a move to stop him.
Now, at this critical mont of the ceasefire, he didn’t want to stir up the situation again.
Batty looked down at Herag: "Let’s send him back to the forest first, I’ll notify Larry."
He knew Herag was Larry’s student, and although the injuries were serious, he wouldn’t die.
Batty summoned a huge leaf, and with a flick of his finger, Herag floated onto it. He stepped onto the leaf himself afterward.
Once steady, the leaf suddenly accelerated, flying towards Moonlight Forest.
"Mr. Batty, I haven’t gotten on yet!" Fred shouted from below.
"Adding a person is more burden, you return to the station and continue the mission yourself." Batty’s voice ca from afar in the sky.
Fred watched the rapidly disappearing leaf and glanced in Malcolm’s departing direction, feeling nervous.
If Malcolm turns back now, he would undoubtedly die.
He wasn’t as strong as Herag, and probably couldn’t last a second under Malcolm’s hand.
The circle of giant trees around hadn’t disappeared; these were summoned by Batty’s magic.
Fred climbed down from the tree, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and started running back.
...
Three days later.
Herag awoke after being unconscious for three days, only to feel a splitting headache and soreness all over his body.
"You’re awake?" A gentle female voice sounded.
Herag’s consciousness slowly returned, discovering himself lying on a bed in his ho’s bedroom, with a woman sitting beside him. Upon closer examination, it was Bessie.
"Why is it you?" Herag was sowhat surprised.
Bessie said: "Don’t say too much now, you haven’t fully recovered. Mr. Larry just left, he has been treating you these days. Your broken bones are all connected now, and you need to rest quietly. I can’t heal, but there hasn’t been much to do recently, so I’m staying here to take care of you."
"Thank you." Herag found it difficult even to lift his head.
"Shenlan, check my current physical condition."
"Multiple fractures all over the body, all currently connected. Multiple soft tissue bruises, the lung was pierced by broken ribs, now repaired. Liver rupture with massive bleeding, now repaired..."
"The body is in a state of severe injury recovery, estimated to require a month of rest to fully recover."
Herag looked at the results Shenlan provided: "Seems I almost explained myself there."
This was his first ti facing an official wizard, the huge gap in strength left a deep sense of helplessness in his heart. Even if he strived with all his might, he could only live a little longer.
Fortunately, Batty’s rescue ca in ti; otherwise, he would already be lying in Malcolm’s lab dissected and studied.
"Water." Herag felt very thirsty, his lips sowhat chapped.
Bessie imdiately got up and poured a glass of water, slowly helping Herag sit up, placing a soft pillow behind him, and then slowly fed him water.
"Thank you." Herag expressed gratitude.
"No problem, we’re friends after all." Bessie smiled.
Herag noticed that she dressed very conservatively today, unlike the last ti when she was more stylish.
He then asked: "How long was I unconscious?"
"Three days." Bessie replied, "Your body is really strong. Mr. Larry said, normal people who suffered such severe injuries wouldn’t wake up within ten days or half a month."
Herag knew it was due to his strong constitution, but compared to an official wizard, it was still far worse. He shook his head: "I’m still too weak, barely made it back."
Bessie quickly said, "No, you’re already very strong. Malcolm is a Level 1 Crystalization Wizard, and you managed to hold on under his hand for so long until Mr. Batty arrived for assistance. That’s really impressive; barely any third-class wizard apprentices can achieve your level."
The gap between official wizards and wizard apprentices is an insurmountable chasm, with strength like heaven and earth.
Normally, Herag should have been killed instantly at first sight.
Herag smiled bitterly, knowing it’s a complint, yet feeling so helpless inside.
"Ascend to beco an official wizard! I must ascend to beco an official wizard!"
Never before had he felt so strongly the desire to beco an official wizard.
Facing life and death, Herag’s yearning for strength grew increasingly intense.
After feeding him so water and food, Herag continued to lie down and imdiately began ditating.
"You really work hard, no wonder you progress so fast. Mr. Larry said that ditation indeed can speed up recovery, but don’t do it for too long, adequate rest is still needed." Bessie reminded him, then lightly closed the door and left, not disturbing Herag further.
In Herag’s mind, a second star lit up in the array map.
In the third-class wizard apprentice stage of the Starry Sky ditation Technique, five stars can be lit, he still lacks four.
His current spiritual power is 18.6, and Herag estimates that reaching the extre in his current stage of the Starry Sky ditation Technique can get to a spiritual power of 24 or 25.
Generally, the ascension requirent for third-class wizard apprentices is around twenty, and if Herag can ascend with a spiritual power of twenty-four or twenty-five, it’s naturally very advantageous.
"ditate to the extre before ascending."
Despite his urgent desire to beco stronger, Herag remained calm.
He could choose to ascend once his spiritual power reaches twenty points.
But Herag wants to pursue the utmost, and he is perfectly capable of reaching it, planning to prepare thoroughly before ascending.
Half a month later.
Herag was already able to get out of bed and walk slowly, recovering faster than he imagined.
"Perhaps it’s related to the Starry Sky ditation Technique." He speculated in his heart.
During this ti’s ditation, the twelfth star is close to solidifying, and within two to three days, ditation will likely be completed.
Bessie was helping him to the living room when suddenly soone knocked on the door downstairs.
"I’ll get the door." Bessie assisted him to sit on the sofa, then went downstairs to open the door.
Through Shenlan’s perception, Herag saw a middle-aged man wearing round glasses; from the magic power fluctuation, he seed to be a powerful Level 1 Official Wizard.
"Don’t know him, why is he looking for ?" He hadn’t seen this person before.
Herag observed the movents downstairs; Bessie obviously knew him after opening the door, her expression very respectful, this person’s status and identity appeared unusual.
After Bessie brought him upstairs, this person looked at Herag and said: "I’m Salin Ellison, one of the current managers of Moonlight Forest."
