"Does anyone else have any objections?" The burly man looked down indifferently at the apprentices.

The guy who had been shouting earlier immediately fell silent and wisely shut his mouth.

"Bulder..." Penny ran to the center of the deck with a worried look on her face, a stark contrast to the indifferent apprentices around her, and immediately helped Buld up.

He took out a bottle of medicine and immediately poured it down his throat.

It was rare... Lorne had taken in everything, and a feeling involuntarily arose in his heart.

After some fragments of memory flashed through his mind, he stopped paying attention to that side and instead stood on the deck gazing at the Wall Manor, which was firmly surrounded by a huge protective shield.

It doesn't look the way I remember it anymore.

Time has passed, things have changed, and people are no longer the same...

A sense of apprehension quickly spread among the apprentices, and those who had been chatting and laughing earlier all looked grave.

After being unconscious for a while, Burd slowly awoke, gently touching his face, which felt burning hot.

She secretly cast a resentful glance at the burly man before beginning to soothe the disorganized crowd.

After being slapped, he dared not utter a single word about "protest" again.

"Everyone, calm down. There are no official wizards in Wall Manor. At most, there is magical pollution caused by wizards."

It's just a place where war has taken place between two major powers, not a battlefield, so why make it so tense?

Besides, the mission isn't particularly dangerous; it's just exploration, and if danger comes, you can just run away.

After Burde's reminder, the unease in everyone's hearts subsided considerably.

"As long as we all come together, we can ensure a very high level of security."

A few second-level apprentices who had not previously joined Boulder's team approached him after careful consideration.

From then on, apart from Lorne and the Great Han, all the apprentices were integrated by Burd into the largest group recruited this time.

"The beasts at least roam alone, while cattle and sheep flock together in herds," the burly man said, raising an eyebrow in a blunt mockery.

"You..." This remark left Burd speechless and also caused dissatisfaction among most of the apprentices.

Because of the pain in his face, Burd didn't choose to argue; a few more slaps and he'd be dead...

As the spell shuttle arrived near the Wall Manor, Gunnar, who was in front of the control circle, maneuvered the shuttle to slowly descend into the open space on the outer edge.

The landing point was directly opposite the entrance to Wall Manor—a collapsed pit and broken, dilapidated walls.

Of everyone, only Lorne recognized this as the entrance, because the original owner had passed through here countless times to run to the grasslands outside the manor to play with Theodore.

If he were there, he would definitely recognize him.

The spell shuttle landed smoothly, and all the functional modules were shut down one after another.

The moment the magic array patterns disappeared and the shuttle's protective shield dissipated, a powerful storm swept in.

A faint popping sound came from afar, and the wind whistled through the hollow air above.

Most of the apprentices were unsteady on their feet due to the violent fluctuations and helped each other up; some of their legs were already trembling.

"I will open a gap for you to enter, and then I will wait for you on the shuttle. Just let me know if anything happens."

After saying that, Gunnar jumped down first, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.

"What? Lord Gunnar isn't coming into Walt Manor with us?" The apprentices looked at each other, beginning to hesitate and wonder.

In a short while, Gunnar on the ground was almost inside the territory of Wal Manor.

"A bunch of cowards." The big man sneered, then leaped high into the air and plummeted to the ground.

"What should we do?" someone asked Burd with concern.

"Let's go down." With utter helplessness, Burd led the way toward the ladder used for the shuttle.

With a sigh, Penny followed to the ladder. Before stepping onto the ladder, she curiously looked at the figure standing at the head of the deck.

He stood tall and straight, his robes billowing in the wind, his long brown hair flying high.

Isn't he going down?

With this question in mind, Penny climbed the ladder at the urging of her descendants.

One after another, the apprentices disembarked from the shuttle. Lorne remained on the deck, gazing at the ruins of the Wall Manor, a sense of desolation and sadness welling up within him.

This emotion does not belong to him, but to this body.

"Then I'll go and see for myself. From now on, I'll owe you nothing..." Lorne murmured, gently touching his heart.

The star vortex spun rapidly, unleashing a massive amount of celestial energy.

Lorne's eyes were bright, and he looked like a crane. He took off and fell straight to the ground from the deck, which was about six or seven meters high.

A cold, heavy, invisible aura moved through the air, while his profound inner strength made his movements smooth and stable.

The toes lightly touched the ground, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

With Lorne's current level of internal strength, while he can't take off yet, achieving a slow descent is still a piece of cake.

After overtaking all the apprentices who were struggling to climb, he followed behind the big man.

At the same time, Penny, who had just climbed down the ladder and landed on the ground, saw that familiar back and three question marks popped into her mind.

He subconsciously looked up and glanced towards the deck.

Wasn't he on the deck?

Lorne's movements were so light that the apprentices, focused on climbing, didn't even notice him. Perhaps because of his low profile, only Penny paid a slight attention...

Once everyone had arrived, Gunnar suddenly unleashed an incredibly powerful aura. He took out a square core that emitted a faint glow and poured magic into it.

The invisible barrier surrounding Wall Manor quietly opened a small gap.

"You may explore however you wish, whether in large groups or in small groups, as long as you can thoroughly investigate the overall situation of the manor."

"If you encounter any magical artifacts scattered or strange phenomena, return to the magic shuttle and notify me immediately."

Gunnar gave a few brief instructions and then gestured for everyone to enter the Wal Manor through the gap.

The big man, as an example, was the first to enter.

Lorne followed closely behind.

After much hesitation, the apprentices, led by Burd, passed through the gap one after another.

As soon as he entered the Wall Manor, Lorne felt very unwell, not only physically.

The small lake in his mental sea surged violently, and his body trembled slightly uncontrollably.

It seemed as if something extremely terrifying was hidden deep within the manor.

The impact of the incident was not only psychological distress, but also, and perhaps more importantly, fear.

Calm down... Lorne activated his breathing technique to calm himself and organize his thoughts.

With a stable wristband, these problems related to mental strength will no longer exist.

Unfortunately, Hyman stole it.

While resisting the inexplicable turbulence in his mental sea, Lorne began to think.

The Wall Manor is very large and is divided into many sections, some of which the original owner of the body had never been to.

There's no need to go to these unfamiliar places; it's not very meaningful.
