Wizard: I can predict the future

Chapter 48 Symbiotic Insects

The other two, looking at their teammates not far away and their unchanged expressions, completely changed their expressions.

One of the youths suddenly took a step back.

His gaze darted back and forth between Nord and the woman.

He seemed to want to speak, but couldn't utter a single word.

The other person gritted his teeth, the elements in front of him had already gathered, and the witchcraft was clearly taking shape.

But he hesitated to release it.

They knew very well what that instantaneous lightning bolt meant.

Nord looked at the three tense people and a smile appeared on his face.

"Don't be nervous, only Edgar offended me."

"I won't do anything to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, all three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

The woman, who had been holding the spell in hand and preparing to unleash it, also suppressed the backlash and withdrew the spell she was about to cast.

However, the next moment.

Three bolts of lightning appeared in the sky almost simultaneously.

Then it fell straight down towards the three of them.

Without any time to react, the three were instantly engulfed by the electric light.

Nord regained his composure; he had never intended to let them go.

He would never do something like releasing a tiger back into the mountains.

That was just a delaying tactic on his part.

At this point, although he had already reached the level of a first-level wizard apprentice, he ultimately only knew one offensive wizardry.

Wizards use unpredictable methods; you never know if they might have some special tricks up their sleeves.

Then we must resort to deception and not give them any chance.

Initially, he did not make a direct move, but instead slowly stepped forward, which was also to put psychological pressure on the other party.

Nord stepped forward and picked up the only magic staff on the ground.

All the other people's belongings were destroyed by the lightning.

Irene watched as Nord picked up his magic wand and slowly walked over.

I instinctively took a step back.

"Who...who are you?"

Nord looked at the two people with worried expressions and shook his head.

"I am Nord."

He was not a bloodthirsty person, and Irene and Ryan had no grudge against him.

After entering the Forest of Trials, the other party did not exploit him at all, but instead explained a lot of things to pay attention to.

Most importantly, when he finally tried to distance himself from the relationship, the other party even helped explain.

Irene looked at Nord, who had already suppressed his demonic pressure and returned to normal.

Yet, it felt like a lifetime had passed.

After unleashing the Fire Raven spell while facing the Dark Night Spider, she nearly exhausted all her magic power.

She had assumed that Edgar and his men had no chance of survival.

But then they suddenly discovered that the teammate they thought was just there to make up the numbers was actually a hidden master.

The shock left her speechless with emotion.

"Are you really a first-level wizard apprentice?"

She finally couldn't resist asking out of curiosity.

Ryan, standing to the side, also looked at Nord with curiosity.

Upon hearing this, Nord quickly organized his thoughts.

"no."

He shook his head.

"Actually, the magic pressure and the minor lightning spell just now were magical artifacts given to me by my teacher."

"However, I haven't been officially accepted as a student yet, so I can't disclose his identity."

Irene and Ryan exchanged a glance, their expressions suddenly realizing what was going on.

That makes sense.

Otherwise, if the other party really is a first-level wizard apprentice, that would be terrifying.

They knew perfectly well that the journey from the Xilihai Islands to the Southern Regions was only a little over a hundred days.

In just over a hundred days, one becomes a first-level wizard apprentice and can cast spells instantly.

That's no longer a matter of talent; it's beyond their imagination.

Irene took a deep breath and glanced at the remains of the Night Mother Spider not far away.

He then looked at Nord, his tone becoming more serious.

"Nord, thanks to you this time."

"If it weren't for you, Ryan and I would probably have died in the Forest of Trials."

"This mother spider, and all the spoils around it, are yours."

"Consider this our compensation for your use of the witchcraft, and also our way of expressing our gratitude."

Ryan nodded without refuting.

"Nord, please don't refuse."

"We don't have anything else to offer right now."

Nord glanced at the two of them, then shook his head.

"There's no need for that. You've also sacrificed a lot in this battle."

"Divide it however you normally would, according to what we agreed on before."

As he spoke, he raised the magic wand in his hand.

"This is my spoils."

Irene watched Nord's hand movements and suddenly laughed.

There was a hint of tears in her eyes.

"Thanks."

Ryan stepped forward, patted Irene on the shoulder, and looked at Nord.

"Today, we only encountered the Night Wolf Spider. Alvin died tragically at the hands of the mother spider."

After a moment of silence, the three began to clean up the battlefield.

A long time passed.

Ryan piled the spoils in the middle of the three of them.

"One venom sac from the mother spider, seventeen venom sacs from the young spiders, four pieces of carapace, approximately three pounds of spider silk, and other supplies."

As he spoke, he took out a cocoon wrapped in spider silk and handed it to Nord.

"We're lucky; we actually found a viable female insect egg."

Seeing that Nord didn't answer, he continued to explain:

"Nord, you've just entered the academy, so you shouldn't have any companion worms yet."

"The Night Wolf Spider is a rare companion insect; it can avoid most curse spells."

"And its ability to release a mental shockwave may also include a protective ability at the soul level."

Upon hearing this, Nord took the cocoon.

"Companion parasites?"

"What is this? I've never heard of it before?"

Looking at Nord's puzzled expression, Ryan became even more convinced of Nord's words.

"This is something that is only covered in mystical courses."

"Our mystical witchcraft is incredibly diverse, with curses being the most common."

He lowered his voice and told Nord with a mysterious expression.

"Although fighting is prohibited within the academy, the academy won't interfere too much as long as students aren't caught."

"Every year, many students die from the curses cast by the mystical side."

"And companion insects are strange insects cultivated using special methods."

"Once the master is cursed, it will be transferred to the companion insect."

"Because each curse causes a large number of companion insects to die, the academy professors always recommend that everyone choose insects that can reproduce quickly and in large numbers."

Upon hearing Ryan's explanation, Nord finally understood the role of the companion worm.

Suddenly, he recalled the scene of dying from a curse when he was trying to figure out how to survive in Lilia's clutches.

A cold sweat broke out on my heart.

Fortunately, he hasn't provoked anyone at Ash Academy.

But in the next instant, the image of a person appeared in his mind.

Vera.

She is the mysterious side.

For some reason, he inexplicably recalled the scene in the restaurant, Vera's final expression.

A sense of urgency suddenly rose in Nord's heart.

We must cultivate companion insects as soon as possible.

He turned his gaze away from the cocoon and looked at Ryan.

"So what are the methods for cultivating companion parasites?"

"What do I need to give in exchange?"

Ryan looked at Nord's serious eyes.

"The cultivation method is not difficult. I will copy the contents into your crystal ball in a moment."

As he spoke, he grinned.

"You saved us just now and didn't ask for anything in return, so here, this is for you."
