Chapter 152: Acquaintances
“Lord Oracle, our people just caught a group of blasphemous sinners outside the city and are awaiting your punishnt.”
“They are a group of Wizards!”
When he heard Spencer’s report, Heath was in the temple discussing so of the contents of ‘The story of God’ with rrius. This sudden news stunned him.
After being stunned for two seconds, he asked, “Wizard? Are you sure?”
Spencer said with certainty, “Yes, my Lord…”
Then, he learned the whole story from Spencer.
After gaining control of Caleru City, Heath issued a series of orders to restore order, including strengthening patrols, guards, and the prohibition of weapons, etc.
Every person who entered the city gate had to undergo a strict search, including a body search.
Today, a group of strangers ca to the city gate, attempting to use the spiritual spell [Hypnosis] to avoid the guards and enter the city.
Normally, it was difficult for ordinary people to guard against [Hypnosis], but today, a few soldiers stationed at the city gate had coincidentally absorbed Heath’s Blood of God and learned the [Chapter of Light].
The Blood of God contained a trace of the power of a Grand Knight, which could improve a Knight’s spirit and willpower. Therefore, although the few soldiers were hypnotized first, one of them woke up halfway and quickly woke up his companions.
Then, the group of people had a conflict with the spellcasters. Spencer was patrolling nearby, so he brought people to subdue them.
Heath frowned and asked, “Where are they?”
Spencer said, “Currently, they’re being held in the dungeon.”
Heath said, “Bring there.”
Along the way, Heath was thinking about where this oddity ca from. Although the Holy Knights that he nurtured were indeed stronger than ordinary Knights, they were actually not that strong.
To be able to be subjugated by ordinary people, the standard of these Apprentices was indeed quite weak.
Soon, they arrived at the dungeon.
Just as they ca down from the stairs, Heath heard a series of voices coming from below. At the sa ti, a few spiritual fluctuations belonging to the sa species were transmitted from below.
“…Are we dreaming? This is simply a dream. We were actually captured by humans and locked in the dungeon. Heavens!”
“Can you shut your mouth? If it wasn’t for your sh*t-like [Hypnosis], we wouldn’t be here.”
“Paul, hurry up and think of sothing! This place is terrible, I don’t want to stay here!”
“Shh, I think soone’s coming.”
“This feeling… it’s the sll of a spellcaster!”
“Such strong elental fluctuations… Could it be that we’ve t a Wizard…”
The voice ca to an abrupt end.
Walking through the corridor, under the light of the dancing torches, Heath saw that there were about five or six people in the cage through the iron railings. There were n and won. All of them were Apprentices, and the strongest one was only at the level of an advanced Apprentice.
While Heath was sizing them up, the people inside were also looking at him. The spiritual sense made them feel like they were the sa kind of people from Heath’s body. The strong elental fluctuations gave them a fright.
One of the pretty girls seed to have suddenly noticed sothing, and her eyes suddenly widened as she looked at Heath.
She exclaid, “It’s you!”
They seed to know Heath. With her scream, the others recognized him.
“The magic genius of Shadow Tower!”
“Black-Haired Heath! It’s him! Why is he here!?”
Heath was stunned.
Could this person who was captured be soone he knew?
…
A while later, in the chapel of Caleru Temple.
Heath and rrius were discussing the etiquette of the Holy Church.
Knock, knock, knock! At this mont, there was a knock on the door.
The door to the room was open. Spencer appeared at the door with a few young n beside him. They were the group of Apprentices who had been locked up in the dungeon previously. At this mont, they had changed into clean clothes and it was obvious that they had freshened up.
Spencer bowed and said, “Sir, I’ve brought them for you.”
Heath nodded and said, “Go down.”
“Yes.”
Spencer left, and the Apprentices walked into the room.
The Apprentices walked into the room.
Heath took the initiative to greet them and said generously, “Welco, friends of the Light Cult.”
These Apprentices were none other than the small Wizard organization he had t once in the Underdark Treesea and had saved once by Heath, the Light Cult.
Perhaps it was because they were too embarrassed, the Apprentices all looked rather embarrassed. They had been saved by Heath twice in a row.
It was fine that there were Dark Wizards last ti, but this ti they were captured by a few humans and locked up in the dungeon. This was the biggest joke in the Wizard World.
In the end, the girl stood up and said, “Hello, Apprentice Heath, we et again. I’m so glad to et you here. I’m Celia. We t last ti. Do you rember?”
The girl was about 16 or 17 years old. She was not particularly gorgeous, but her facial features were very delicate. Her big eyes were sparkling as if they could speak.
Overall, it made Heath involuntarily think of the little sister next door when he was a child. She was just as pure and cute.
Heath smiled and said, “I’m glad to be able to save you, Miss.”
This girl was the one he saved from the Dark Wizard.
Celia’s face was slightly red and she looked very shy. She avoided looking at Heath’s eyes and said in a panic, “You… You… Thank you…”
‘No way! Why are you so flirtatious?’
While Heath was surprised, a brown-haired boy ca forward.
He bowed to Heath and introduced himself, “Hello, Apprentice Heath. I am the Wizard Master of the Light Cult, Paul Xavier.”
Heath retracted his gaze from the girl and replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, “It’s a pleasure to et you, Sir.”
Pausing for a mont, he asked in surprise, “Pardon for being presumptuous, but are you the Wizard Master?”
As far as he knew, the Wizard Master of the Light Cult should be a peak-level advanced Apprentice. He was about 80 years old and ca from the Aurora family. He had never heard of Paul of the Xavier family before.
Paul explained, “My teacher had an accident two years ago. Before he passed away, he appointed to take over the position of Wizard Master.”
As he spoke, he took out a badge. This was a badge issued by the Ruler of Darkness, and only the Wizard Master had it.
Paul said, “Because the current ruler’s candidate is vacant, the scepter and badge haven’t been replaced yet. The na of my teacher is still on it, but the spiritual brand inside is already mine.”
He activated the badge as he spoke.
The Wizard Master’s badge could only be activated by the Wizard Master’s own spiritual power. The fact that he could activate the badge clearly showed that he had received the previous Wizard Master’s approval.
For a mont, Heath’s eyes lit up.
He never thought that the benevolent act of the last ti would give him such a big gift. This was really…
Being sent a pillow when he was sleepy…
Paul once again bowed seriously to Heath and said, “We haven’t had the ti to thank you for what happened last ti. Thank you for your help. If it weren’t for you, the Light Cult would have been buried in my hands.”
It was too embarrassing to let the humans finish the job today, so there was no need to ntion it…
The other Apprentices also bowed, “Thank you, Sir.”
Heath shook his head and smiled. “It’s nothing.”
Paul continued, “We of the Light Cult will always rember your kindness. If you need our help in the future, you can co to anyti.”
Heath suddenly said, “That’s good. I have sothing I need to trouble you with.”
Paul was stunned.
Although he was not being polite, he did not expect Heath to be so direct.
He quickly said, “Please go ahead.”
Pausing for a mont, he added, “If it’s within my ability, I won’t decline!”
Heath said, “Of course.”
Then, he asked excitedly but completely out of Paul’s expectations, “I want to ask you, your Light Cult…”
“Are you still looking for people?”
