Chapter 170: Shadow
It looked like a bedroom. There was a wooden table, a cabinet, a big bed in the middle, and a balcony next to it.
There was a round table on the balcony, and a wooden chair beside the table for afternoon tea.
At this moment, there was a figure sitting on the chair.
To be exact, it was a skeleton.
It looked like it had been dead for God knows how long. Some dried bacon was hanging on the pale skeleton, and a tattered cloak was draped over it.
“Is this the Wizard?”
Heath could still feel faint elemental fluctuations from the skeleton. It was obvious that it belonged to the level of a Wizard.
Heath spread out his spiritual tentacles and scanned the surroundings. After confirming that there were no traps or other dangers, he walked forward.
There was a notebook on the round table. It was obvious that it had been there for many years, but it was still intact, probably because it had been enchanted with magic. It was just covered with a thick layer of dust.
Heath blew away the dust on it and picked up the notebook to open it. It was a diary that recorded the life of this Wizard.
However, what Heath did not expect was that the first sentence caught his attention.
“Hahaha, I passed the test. I can become a Wizard now. Sigurama Wizard Academy, I’m here!”
Heath was stunned.
“Sigurama Academy?”
This was a very famous academy on the West Coast. There were even some Stigmata-level Wizards, and it was the only Wizard organization on the West Coast that had Stigmata-level Wizards.
Heath had also obtained the dazzling Wizard relic from this Wizard organization.
However, this Wizard organization had been extinct for more than a thousand years, and the situation was somewhat similar to that of Shadow Tower. It seemed that the higher-ups had all been wiped out during a certain expedition, and then the enemy came to find them, and they were all slaughtered. The remaining members were either dead or escaped.
However, the specific details of the destruction of their higher-ups were not clear, only mentioning that they were exploring a certain secret plane.
“Did this Wizard escape to this place to avoid disaster?”
Heath continued reading.
The diary described the student’s experience of going to the West Coast continent to study.
The owner of the diary was called Victor. Like most Apprentices, Victor was brought to the Wizard Academy after he was tested for Wizard talent, then, he began to accept various missions to earn Magic Stones, meditate, buy materials to learn spells, and so on.
The resources of the Sigurama Academy were determined by talent. The higher the talent, the more resources were given.
Victor’s luck was not bad. He was born with a high-level talent, so he could get more resources.
In addition, he was also quite hard-working, so his strength was constantly improving. Low-level, intermediate-level, and advanced-level, it seemed that he was going to advance to a Wizard soon.
But at this time, something unexpected happened.
“There’s a rumor that something has happened to Lord Magus Brent and the others. This must be the nonsense of those jealous villains. Lord Brent is a Stigmata Wizard. How many people in this world are his match?”
“Heavens, something has really happened to Lord Magus Brent and the others. They were completely annihilated in the Mysterious Sea area!”
“It’s over. I heard that the Ice Queen of the Frost Castle has returned from the sealed land. She’s Lord Magus Brent’s sworn enemy…”
“What should we do? Should we fight to the death? But… I don’t want to die yet… Everyone is running away. It seems that I have to make preparations as soon as possible…”
Mysterious Sea Area?
“I see. The reason that led to the destruction of the Sigurama Academy back then was because of the Mysterious Sea area?”
There were four extremely dangerous and mysterious places in the Wizard World. They were the Mysterious Sea, the Death Desert, the Dark Forest, and the Polar Ice Field.
It was said that these places were the kind of places that would eat people without spitting out their bones. Even high-level Wizards did not dare to set foot in them easily.
However, danger often meant profit. It was said that there were countless rare treasures growing in these places. Some of them were even sought after by Stigmata Wizards. Therefore, there were many Wizards who tried to get rich overnight to explore these places all year round.
It was worth mentioning that legend had it that the [Great Fall] that Heath had seen on the sea was a way to the Mysterious Sea area.
Heath continued to read.
What happened next was logical. The death of the higher-ups and the enemy coming to find them. The Wizard Academy must have been cleansed from top to bottom, which was similar to what Heath had read in the book.
“Is it the Frost Castle that destroyed them? No wonder it has such a huge amount of energy.”
The Frost Castle was a Wizard organization on the same level as the Tower of Order, and it was said that their strength was much stronger than the Tower of Order. They belonged to one of the top Wizard organizations in this world.
From the diary, the Frost Castle was extremely ruthless. They had completely eliminated the Sigurama Academy.
Because of this, although Victor was lucky enough to escape from this calamity, he did not dare to show his face in the Wizard Continent anymore. Thus, he hid back in his hometown and built a Wizard tower in a secret realm that he found by chance.
However, this was the land of elemental exhaustion. Victor did not have too many resources, so it was destined that his cultivation would be difficult.
During this period, although he had gone out a few times to search for materials and resources, not only could he not find the materials and resources, but he was also chased and hunted everywhere, so he could only hide back.
The efforts that lasted for a period of time did not have much effect, and in the end, his life force was completely exhausted.
Seeing that there was not much time left, Victor could only give up and adjust the core of the magic array at the end of his life, feeding the elements to his only demonized beast, which was the Dark Cloud Beast outside.
“Now that things have come to this, I no longer have any expectations. I only hope that I can spend my old age here peacefully.”
“The only regretful thing is that it was not easy to complete the [Shadow]. This is the greatest pride of my life as a Wizard…”
“So, I left all of this here. If a Wizard comes here, I hope that this spell can be passed down and let this world remember that there was a Wizard who came to this world. His name was Victor.”
The diary ended here.
In the skeleton’s hand was a scroll made of sheepskin. Similarly, this scroll had been cast with spells, and because of this, it had not been damaged for so long.
Heath took it and looked at it. This was a spell scroll that recorded the -[Shadow] mentioned in Victor’s diary.
Victor was a Wizard who was relatively talented in spells. In addition to the abundant resources provided by the Tower, he was able to accumulate a large amount of knowledge before advancing to a Wizard, and successfully combined this knowledge to form his own spell system.
And [Shadow] was a spell that he had created with his own spell system.
Holding the scroll, Heath was in a great mood.
He did not expect to have such a great harvest this time. Not to mention the pile of Magic Stones and materials outside, which was at least a hundred thousand Magic Stones and materials, he had even obtained a Wizard-level spell scroll. This kind of luck could not be stopped.
Out of respect for the deceased, Heath bowed to the body of the deceased and carefully put away the scroll.
