The Mara wizard, whose face was slightly pale, walked into the hall, glanced at the pantry, smirked, and hurriedly flew to the second floor without a mont’s delay.
His losses had already been significant. Now he had to make the most of his ti to recover whatever he could.
Third floor of the flying ship.
A scene of ruins, bodies everywhere, so of wizard apprentices, and also three knights.
Outside the innermost cabin, four knights, exhausted and covered in soot, simultaneously swung their swords towards the pale red shield outside the cabin, having slashed it countless tis.
"Crack——"
The shield could no longer hold, shattering with a boom.
Inside the cabin, the one student Mara had on the flying ship, Bulanya, looked desperate.
He had locked everyone else outside, relying on the traps left by his ntor to fend off these Temple Knights.
In the end, he couldn’t hold out until his ntor returned.
Whoosh——
A blood-red Sword Qi sliced through, and Bulanya gritted his teeth, casting Fireball Technique in an attempt to block the Sword Qi.
Thunk.
The Sword Qi swept through the fireball without a ripple, slicing straight towards Bulanya, cutting him in half.
"Target complete, let’s go!" the leading knight gave the order, turned, and rushed downstairs.
Just as they reached the second floor, they ran into Mara coming up.
Seeing these knights descending, Mara’s face, initially with a hint of a smile, darkened completely.
He knew that no one was left above.
"You damned scoundrels!"
Mara gritted his teeth, raised his right hand, and a deep blue fla erupted from his palm, engulfing the four Temple Knights.
"For the war god!"
The leading knight, devout and solemn, raised his longsword, slashing toward the incoming flas.
"For the war god!"
The three knights behind him followed suit, slashing at the flas with their swords.
Among them, so may have voted against in the caves, but that didn’t an they feared death.
Those not devout couldn’t even sense the power left by the god.
Their opposition to acting now was rely to absorb more power and strike when stronger.
Whoo——
The deep blue flas quickly lted the Sword Qi, continuing to rush towards the four knights, ultimately vaporizing them all.
"Divine Grace Knights." Mara’s face was sinister, "I’ll rember you."
Taking a deep look where the four knights vanished, he turned and headed downstairs, arriving at the pantry door:
"Co out, little guy."
Hearing Mara’s voice, Lor imdiately breathed a sigh of relief, pushed aside the bread piled on him, stepped out, and bowed: "Mara wizard."
"Mm." Mara nodded, "I’ve consud quite a bit, so I’ll take you to the Wizard Tower tomorrow."
"As a reward for surviving, you can roam freely on the first and second floors of the flying ship today. All the cabin doors were destroyed by those bastards."
With that, he turned and headed upstairs.
"Thank you, Mara wizard." Lor was rather delighted, repeatedly expressing gratitude, and watched him ascend the stairs.
With Mara’s words, it ant he could freely explore and take advantage on the first and second floors of the flying ship today.
In the library on the second floor, he might find so useful witchcraft among the gifted witchcraft models.
What Lor most coveted, however, were the Magic Crystals that might be left over in the energy room on the first floor.
While he could acquire Magic Crystals by selling optimized witchcraft models and then convert them into charge points, he couldn’t just sell imdiately!
He had to familiarize himself with the environnt and confirm he could sell safely first.
Before that, he had to maintain his guise as a genius in witchcraft modification and steady progress in ditation techniques.
At this point, the role of Magic Crystals beca evident.
"Magic Crystals are very helpful to , but I shouldn’t go to the energy room first."
Lor mused, "I’m not supposed to know the energy room exists, I should check the library first and then look around slowly."
Having made his plans, Lor stepped towards the second floor.
Walking through a pitch-black corridor, taking a few turns, he arrived once more at the library entrance.
The library was now a ss, with parchnt scrolls scattered everywhere.
Entering the library, Lor casually picked up a book from the floor and glanced at it.
Bloodline: Howling Moon Wolf ditation Technique.
He threw it aside, next book.
Baleen Whale ditation Technique.
He threw it aside, next book.
...
Lor patiently searched for over an hour.
Suddenly.
Upon flipping through a witchcraft model, his hand, habitually set to toss the book, stopped.
"This is the precursor to Earth Vein Traveling Technique, the Earth Vein Breathing Technique?"
Looking at this witchcraft recorded at the end of an Earth ditation Technique, Lor’s eyes lit up.
Earth Vein Traveling Technique is one of the essential escape and life-saving witchcraft for Earth Mages from level 1 to 3, extrely practical.
"morize it now, learn it later."
Spending half an hour ticulously morizing the witchcraft model, Lor spent another hour going through the library without finding a witchcraft that moved him.
After all, it was just basic witchcraft gifted from ditation techniques, nothing good was normal.
He did not plan to morize witchcraft to sell, firstly because they were worthless, secondly because ti was short, and he couldn’t morize many.
"That’s about enough."
Lor stood up and walked outside the library, "Now to take a stroll on the first floor, it’s reasonable."
After a while, Lor descended to the first floor, walked into the corridor on the left of the hall, carefully avoiding so apprentice corpses, and looked into cabin after cabin.
Occasionally spotting soone dressed extravagantly, he would squat down to search around, managing to acquire dozens of gold coins.
After reaching the Wizard Tower, although only Magic Crystals could be used to trade for wizard resources, gold could buy food and drinks.
Anyway, since it was convenient, he didn’t mind collecting a bit.
Surely, these apprentices wouldn’t mind either.
Having gathered around five hundred gold coins, he found them heavy in hand and decided not to gather more.
"It would be nice to have so space equipnt." Glancing at the large cloth bag in his hand, Lor sighed.
Unfortunately, such things were very expensive, certainly unaffordable until he formally sold the optimized models.
Walking a bit farther, he finally saw the place struck by the Temple Knight’s second Sword Qi Slash, the spaceship’s energy furnace.
The energy furnace was now blackened, caused by self-destruction following operation interruption.
"Hope there’s so Magic Crystal left." Lor entered the energy cabin beside the energy furnace with anticipation.
He scanned the surroundings, noticing half of it near the energy furnace was also blown to ruins.
The other half remained intact, but there was nothing there.
Lor quickly walked to the destroyed half and searched around, soon like finding a treasure, he picked out a fiery red stone.
[Detecting a chargeable object, charge?]
"No." Lor promptly refused.
Kidding, what if the Mara wizard were watching him?
A Magic Crystal vanishing on the spot, did they think he was an official wizard?
Carefully placing the Magic Crystal into a small pocket inside his clothes, Lor continued searching.
One piece.
Another piece.
Yet another piece.
"Mara wizard must be really wealthy to usually store so many Magic Crystals in the energy cabin?"
Lor collected piece after piece of Fire Elent Magic Crystals, realizing that he had underestimated Mara wizard’s financial resources.
