Wizard: I devour the stars with swarms of insects.

After parting ways with Isabel, Wayne returned to his room in the Wizard Tower.

After thinking for a moment, Wayne opened the leather scroll that Isabel had given him and laid it out on the table.

Reaching out to stroke this old roll of kraft paper, its surface rough and the lines drawn on it slightly blurred due to its age.

However, judging from the peculiar structural patterns of these symbols, they seem to be a variant of some ancient shamanic language.

Although I don't know them, but...

Next, with a thought, Wayne activated the [Hive] smart assistant and began scanning the parchment roll in front of him to identify the text information on it.

For some time now, I've been going to the library of the Natural Symbiosis Wizard Tower every few days.

Scan each book containing wizarding knowledge and store it in the memory bank of the [Hive] smart assistant.

After all, for wizards who pursue truth and power, knowledge is the greatest wealth.

After scanning and storing this knowledge information from this plane, it might come in handy sometime.

Therefore, Wayne's relevant information has already been included in the Hive database.

[Scanning in progress...Initiating information comparison]

A pale blue data screen appeared before Wayne's eyes, scanning the symbols and text on the parchment scroll through his pupils.

The information was compared with the data recorded in the database... A moment later, a notification appeared before Wayne's eyes.

[Information comparison completed. It is speculated that the symbolic script is similar to "rune"—a variant of an ancient wizarding language, dating back nearly a thousand years to the present wizarding era.]

"Runic script?"

Wayne was somewhat surprised to hear the results of the comparison, based on what he had seen in the library.

Runewen comes from an ancient wizarding civilization that once had a glorious and splendid civilization on the continent of Terra, and built many magnificent and imposing buildings.

Then, for some unknown reason, it disappeared overnight and never existed again.

According to records in wizarding texts, it seems that their home plane was invaded by a wizarding civilization from another dimension, resulting in the complete destruction of the Rune wizarding civilization...

[Load rune-related semantics and begin parsing the current content?]

"Analysis!"

Upon hearing the inquiry from the [Hive] assistant, Wayne immediately agreed to proceed with the analysis.

Then a pale blue waterfall of data began to refresh before my eyes, deconstructing the symbols and text on the parchment scroll in front of me.

Next, based on the information obtained from the text comparison, it was found that the contents of the parchment scroll had been encrypted with runes.

The detailed information will only be revealed after the material has been soaked in a solution of fluorite powder, a special mineral.

It's a simple form of text encryption.

The potion containing fluorite powder is not rare; it is a very common experimental material. Wayne remembers having it in his mentor Morse's laboratory.

Judging by the time, it's almost time for me to head to Professor Morse's lab to clean it up.

So Wayne kept the parchment scroll safe, locked it in his drawer, and then went up the spiral staircase to the upper floors of the Natural Symbiosis Wizard Tower.

Morse's mentor's "epidemic zone" laboratory, went in and started cleaning. Soon, after sweeping the inside with a broom.

When he left, Wayne took a bottle of [fluorite powder] potion from the laboratory and put it in his pocket.

Wayne went down the spiral staircase to his room on the first floor, closed the door, and took the brown paper roll out of the drawer.

Spread it on the table, then unscrew the stopper of the [Fluorite Powder] potion and pour it on top.

Changes occurred quickly; after the [fluorite powder] potion moistened the parchment scroll, ancient runes began to appear on it.

Furthermore, Wayne instructed the [Hive] intelligent assistant to begin simultaneously translating the runic text in front of them.

A massive waterfall of data immediately appeared before his eyes, projecting the translated information onto Wayne's retina.

[Combat Area: Northern Terra - Ash Plains]

[Status: The 7th to 12th Golem Legions at Ash Plains have failed in their battle against the unknown wizard civilization and are currently retreating...]

[The anti-curse barrier was not fully established when it was reverse-analyzed and contaminated by an unknown force, triggering an energy backlash...]

The remaining Golem Legion is sealed away at "Silent Manor," along with its design blueprints and repair plans. The sealing code is "Silver Cross"...

The contents of the parchment scroll in front of me were fragmented and vague, and I could only make out the general content.

It is likely that some of the inscriptions on the document have worn away over the long years, making them illegible.

Upon seeing a few words in these contents, Wayne froze in surprise, his expression one of utter astonishment.

"The blueprints for the Golem Legion?" As a wizard apprentice, he was naturally familiar with this ancient weapon of war.

It is said to be the pinnacle of alchemy, and wizards once commanded these golem legions, which played a significant role in interdimensional wars.

But who would have thought that the Rune Wizard civilization, which possessed this war technology... would also be wiped out?

What kind of wizarding civilization could possibly destroy such a powerful being?

Upon seeing this content, Wayne was utterly astonished and shocked, remaining speechless for a long time.

Soon after regaining his composure, Wayne's eyes gradually revealed a fanatical gaze.

According to the contents of this parchment scroll, the technology of those golem legions seems to be sealed away in this place called "Silent Manor"!

Furthermore, there is a very high probability that the wreckage of the Golem Legion is also here. If I can find this place... wouldn't I be able to master the Golem Legion's technology?

Unexpectedly, that girl Isabelle actually sent me such a... priceless "treasure"!

However, after a brief period of euphoria and excitement, Wayne quickly calmed down, because it was a place where the Golem Legion was sealed.

This so-called "Silent Manor" must be an extremely dangerous place, given that Little Karami is currently only a third-level wizard apprentice.

Going to a place like this now would be like lighting a lamp in a latrine—a suicidal act, so Wayne quickly regained his composure.

Next, after recording the location of this clue using the [Hive] smart assistant, Wayne carefully preserved the parchment scroll.

My immediate priority is to raise my mental strength to the level of a second-level wizard apprentice as soon as possible.

Then learn "Thorn Tongue," master it, and gain a certain level of combat ability and self-defense capabilities before proceeding.
