Wizard Immortality

Chapter 28: Wizards Know People丨Too Cunning

Liszt narrowed his eyes slightly.

He wanted to find a flaw in Vic's demeanor.

Among ordinary wizard apprentices, only a few can remain sane when facing the mental pressure of a first-level wizard.

Even if you stay sane.

And he will definitely not be the same as this apprentice named Archie.

Take it all in stride.

Moreover, in the eyes of a first-level wizard, an apprentice is just an apprentice, and there is no distinction between senior and junior.

A wizard can disguise his appearance.

Can disguise demeanor.

But the characteristics of the spiritual magnetic field are difficult for wizards to disguise.

This is also what distinguishes a first-level wizard from an apprentice.

A wizard apprentice's impression of a person relies on vision and hearing, and does not break away from mortal means.

But for a first-level wizard, one's appearance and figure can be changed at will by adjusting muscles and bones, making one fat or thin, beautiful or ugly.

Not for reference.

A first-level wizard distinguishes others by identifying their spiritual magnetic fields.

Just like a person's unique temperament.

The characteristics of the spiritual magnetic field cannot be imitated by others.

cruel.

Selfish.

Or hate evil.

Lister has lived for more than two hundred years and has come into contact with countless wizards.

But the alchemist in front of him, named Archie, had a spiritual magnetic field that was the first time he had ever encountered such characteristics.

Like an eternal rock.

It is aging, but still strong.

For a moment, Liszt thought that the person standing in front of him was not an apprentice, but an old man who had lived for too long.

But this feeling only lasted for a moment.

Afterwards, the aura of Vic's spiritual magnetic field became no different from that of other apprentices, except that he was cold-blooded and greedy.

A wizard's senses are exceptionally acute.

Extremely cunning.

Lister would not doubt that the breath just now was his own illusion. He would rather believe that the alchemist in front of him might be a disguise of a second-level or even third-level wizard whose strength far exceeded his.

What scares him most is...

Vic told him clearly that he would not stop him if he killed the two descendants of the Bell family.

Although this is a common way of saying that a worshipper should distance themselves from a wizard family, after careful consideration, Lister's mood gradually became solemn.

He looked at Vic in silence.

He took it as a warning.

Because it is very easy to make enemies by infringing on a wizard's private property.

Although Vic was a man of deep scheming and wisdom far beyond his peers, he could not guess for a moment what the first-level wizard hovering in front of him was thinking at the moment.

Use words and eye contact to give psychological hints to first-level wizards.

For a wizard apprentice, it means seeking death.

Vic wouldn't do it.

Moreover.

Whether Mather and Evelyn were dead or alive was none of his business.

The deal between them was limited to helping the two men escape from the Bell family and gain freedom.

He originally thought that Lister would kill the two people behind him casually, but to his surprise, the first-level wizard Lister just remained silent for a while, then inexplicably stepped aside, his tone was ambiguous, and even a little awed.

"Since these two are your personal followers, I will do you a favor and you can take them away.

I won’t pursue it.”

For the Carter family.

Letting go the two knights with low talents pose no threat to them.

Moreover.

After becoming the alchemist's followers, the meaning of their existence is to extend the other's strength and will.

As long as you don't make enemies with each other.

Don't worry about retaliation.

You might even be able to make friends with this mysterious alchemist and leave a good impression, which is a sure win.

Carter had already determined it at this time.

This alchemist named Archie must be a powerful wizard posing as a senior apprentice while traveling around the world.

This kind of thing is common in the wizarding world.

The identity of an apprentice is much more convenient than that of a formal wizard. Vic was slightly surprised and said, "In that case, thank you very much."

The implication is that you are accepting this favor.

Liszt nodded slightly and flew away.

Although the conversation between the two was very brief, Lam Bell, who witnessed this scene, was shocked and felt lost.

Because he lost a chance to save his family.

Lister Carter, who was always arrogant, was humble when facing Master Archie. The man's identity and background were much more profound than he had imagined.

Mather and Avila walked behind Vic.

The former looked relaxed, and did not conceal his joy and excitement at surviving the disaster.

The latter silently stared at Vic's back with complicated thoughts.

'Ignorance and lack of ambition are the original sins.'

This sentence was like a demon in her heart. Ever since she left the basement that day, it has been lingering in her mind and has never gone away.

And the status and power of a powerful wizard like Vic were deeply engraved in her memory.

Facing Mather's frivolous love words.

Ivilia just responded with a perfunctory attitude.

Her mind was now entirely on Vic.

first time.

Evelyna hated Vic's ugly disguised face so much that she felt sick at the mere sight of it.

But now.

The figure riding on the horse seemed to have a unique charm that deeply attracted her.

Not love.

Neither is it awe and yearning.

It's a strange feeling that is hard to describe or explain.

But she could never catch it.

Vic was wondering why Lister suddenly showed him a favor.

He was not naive enough to think that his disguise as an alchemist was so perfect that he could fool a first-level wizard.

If the other party is a wizard apprentice.

The identity of an alchemist has this value.

But Lister was a first-level wizard, and the favors given by an apprentice were not worthy of his status and position.

Something went wrong.

Disturbing.

Because it is impossible to understand the knowledge system of a first-level wizard.

Vic thought again and again.

He suspected that the other party had sensed the existence of the Lich's Life Box through the mental magnetic field that he had leaked.

let him go.

I just want to keep the treasure all to myself.
The more Vic thought about it, the more frightened he became. Even he broke out in a cold sweat.

The wizard's greed for carriers of knowledge.

There is no need to obtain evidence from others, just using his own example is enough to explain everything.

Vic didn't dare to gamble whether the other party would discover the soul box.

The leakage of his mental magnetic field was because the energy density of his mental body was too high, approaching the critical value of the apprentice level, and was difficult to control.

Suppose that is the case.

He must find an extremely secret place to be promoted to a senior position.

It is not too late.

Vic was extremely anxious at this time, fearing that if he was a second late, he would be found by Lister and would be killed.

So he decided to find an excuse, leave Mather and Evelynia to fend for themselves, and run away at the speed of light.

He now has more than 800 soul stones in his hand, which is enough for him to be promoted to senior level.

Vic remained calm on the surface, stopped his horse, and said to Mercer, "Our agreement is over. You and Ivilia are free."

Because it's urgent.

Vic didn't have the energy to create his image as a weird and tricky alchemist in front of two mortals.

Mather was so excited that he wanted to hug Evelyia.

But the dazzling red-haired girl pushed him away because she had thought one thing through thoroughly, saw through her own heart, and understood what she really wanted to pursue - a wizard.

When it came to her first love, her eyes were unfamiliar and her voice was exceptionally cold.

“We seek different things, Mather.

I want to continue serving Master Archie.

Even though the chances are low, I want to try... to become a wizard."

　I've been very busy lately, and I'm feeling tired, sleepy, and dizzy.
