Wizard Immortality

Chapter 89: Establishing Authority and Reputation丨Changes in the Road
The day.

The port facing the Hanging City was just as peaceful and bustling as usual.

but.

The largest local gang.

The atmosphere inside the Viper followers' residence was depressing.

The head of the organization, senior apprentice Pio, fixed his gaze on the alchemical ring on the table, frowning.

He was wearing a dark brown robe, reclining on the sofa, his hands adorned with jewels, looking preoccupied.

this time.

He sent people to sell the stolen goods that were obtained illegally on the black market.

Everything else went smoothly.

Only this ring.

No one dared to accept it.

To find out the reason, he went to the black market in person, but was turned away.

He picked up the ring and held it before his eyes, examining it carefully.

Could it be that this thing really has a great origin?
That's true.

Why didn't the foreign knight say anything? If he had an identity and background, he would have received him sincerely as long as he mentioned it.

At this time.

The deputy who had gone out to gather information came back in a hurry, only to see the elderly wizard apprentice, sweating profusely and his face was pale.

"Lord Pio! We are in big trouble this time!"

Pio has extensive connections in the port area of the Hanging City, and has a close relationship with a first-level wizard who works on the Rectification Committee.

There are frequent exchanges of interests between the two sides.

Even if he offends a first-level wizard, he has enough cards to deal with it.

He snorted coldly, without panicking at all, and said, "Big trouble? Talk slowly, I'm listening."

The old apprentice had thinning hair and a wrinkled face.

His teeth chattered as he said, "I paid a huge price to buy the information from an apprentice on the black market.

He told me that the black market traders kept us out because the ring contained the spiritual mark of a powerful wizard.

And that big shot is now living in the Hanging City!
It is a terrifying existence that we absolutely cannot afford to offend!"

Hear this.

The senior apprentice, Pio, looked increasingly serious and asked, "Do you know the identity of that important person?"

The apprentice shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

If it were before.

For such a big thing, the Rectification Committee will definitely provide him with information, and even if he runs away, they will cover him up.

after all.

The Rectification Committee will also gain a lot of benefits from the gray industry they run.

pity.

Until now, he hasn't heard any news from the Rectification Committee.

Realize something is not right.

The senior apprentice was also a decisive person. He immediately stood up and said, "From now on, you will be responsible for handling the organization's affairs.

I'm going to be away for a while.

Be careful not to tell anyone about my whereabouts."

but.

It’s too late to leave now.

A dull voice suddenly came from outside the door into the camp.

"The people inside came out to see me on their own."

thereafter.

The mental pressure of a first-level wizard roared like thunder in the spiritual body of the senior apprentice Pio.

He lost his balance and nearly fell!
All of a sudden.

Fine beads of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

His hands were shaking madly.

Biao knew that he was in trouble, but since the other party came to his door, he had no choice but to go out and greet him.

With his apprentice's strength.

It is impossible to escape from the hands of a first-level wizard.

The Serpent Cult's base is located next to a warehouse at the port.

The house is small on the outside, but has a lot of space inside and in the basement.

This is the peak period for port throughput.

Vic stood in the air.

The black robe fluttered in the strong wind at high altitude.

The airship, like a giant steel structure, blocked out the sky and left the port, trailing billowing white smoke behind him.

Passing merchants and wizards, seeing a first-level wizard acting so aggressively, stopped to watch.

Luke is now an assistant to the committee. He has a high status in the Hanging City and has already entered the upper-middle class. He holds real power and has considerable personal strength. But he can only stand behind Vic, moving his lips, trying to dissuade him, but dare not speak.

Upon hearing the news, wizards and apprentices from the Rectification Committee who were patrolling near the port also rushed over.

"Master Luke! What are you doing?"

Luke's face was livid at this moment, and he stood with his hands behind his back, completely unlike the gentleness he showed when facing Vic. He shouted coldly, "Tell the first-level wizard in charge of the port to come see me!"

Not long after.

Then a young wizard who had just been promoted to the next level was seen flying hurriedly from a distance.

After seeing Luke, he was slightly startled and bowed his head quickly. Then he looked at Vic, a little confused about the other party's origin, and whispered, "Master Luke, who is this?"

Luke snorted and said, "You don't need to know his identity, Tris. This happened in your jurisdiction. You can handle it yourself."

Tris secretly checks the depth of Vic's abilities.

My heart sank.

Although the opponent's mental magnetic field strength was the same as that of a newly promoted first level, he knew that a newly promoted first level would not make Lord Luke so cautious.

Especially the other party's mental magnetic field characteristics.

Cruel and ruthless.

It's scary.

Tris was silent for a while and wanted to interrupt to ask what had happened to mobilize such a large force, but he saw the senior apprentice Pio walking out of the base.

I've already guessed most of it.

I wanted to scold him and deal with him in public for violating the rules.

But he accidentally caught Luke's eye.

Suddenly he was shocked.

Luke was obviously saying that if you don't want to die, don't use the name of punishment to protect the profit chain you run here at the port.

Otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk.

Vic doesn't care about the value of an alchemical ring.

But he didn't give it.

Others cannot snatch it.

and.

This matter is related to the purpose of his coming to the Hanging City.

Must be dealt with seriously.

Vic is thoughtful and pragmatic.

This time he came to the Hanging City with a clear purpose.

One is to get rid of the criminal wizard Amiya.

The second is to gain profits by leveraging the alchemist's status and connections.

Paving the way for the talent of witchcraft and promotion to senior level.

The squire knight was robbed, which damaged his dignity and caused his strength and status to be questioned, which was equivalent to cutting off his source of income.

court death!

Moreover.

In the wizarding world, the laws of the strong remain unchanged.

The intangible benefits of a notorious reputation far outweigh the disadvantages.

The Black Tower Academy period.

Vic's strength and talent are no different from those of an ant. When he encounters problems and fights with others, he is at risk of falling at any time.

Not so now.

After opening up the sea of knowledge at the star sea level.

Also a bloodline wizard.

Impact the black box level talent position.

An unexpected feud with a criminal wizard.

His path to advancement has gradually departed from the rule of "mediocrity racing against time" and he has stepped step by step into the ranks of geniuses.

The incident where Locke was robbed.

Can be big or small.

But Vic intends to use this incident to establish his authority.

Establish a bad reputation.

This will make it easier for him to act in the Hanging City in the future.

When he was young, his face was ordinary, just like an ordinary passerby.

But a hundred years of vicissitudes.

Vic's temples and front hair were already gray, his face was angular, and his eyes were sinister and terrifying.

Just standing in the air.

His demeanor is majestic without him being angry.

He looked down at the senior apprentice who was walking out of the station with a flat voice and questioned him.

"You stole my squire knight?"
