Wizard: The exploration panel keeps me pure.

Chapter 222 Riot

In the end, Ron still listened to Swano's textbook-worthy speech.

His mental state had fallen into a strange state, and he felt that the nearly one-hour-long speech had been nothing short of mental torture.

"Junior Ron, what's wrong with you?"

Swano, however, seemed completely unaffected, standing beside him as they walked, with Swano asking Ron about his condition with concern.

He seemed unaware that his previous words were somewhat verbose, and even thought he had spoken quite well.

Ron had no intention of telling the person in front of him what had happened. After all, they had already been through it, and there was no need to talk about it again and hurt their relationship.

Time passed by, second by second, and the red moon gradually peeked out from behind the clouds.

As the orange-red moonlight shone on the earth, the two young people in the woods couldn't help but look up at the red moon in the sky.

"Senior, I feel like the atmosphere here is a bit off. Is it always like this when you come here?"

After hearing Ron's question, Swano's face showed a serious expression he had never seen since Ron arrived: "No, it wasn't like this before. This is the first time I've seen something like this."

Clearly, while most creatures in the forest were fast asleep at night, they, as students of the Red Moon Tower, naturally knew an ironclad rule throughout the wizarding world:

The Red Moon is the source of madness and depravity, the origin of pollution, and the final resting place for the souls of all evil beings.

In short, whenever the Red Moon arrives, the entire wizarding world descends into unprecedented madness.

Normally, when the red moon descends, ghostly howls would echo throughout the Karazov Mountains. But today, as the two found themselves in the twilight-shrouded forest, they were surprised to find the surroundings unusually quiet, as if the clock had been pressed. Apart from the rustling of the wind through the leaves, there was no other sound, not even the chirping of birds or the sounds of insects.

Just then, a somewhat abrupt sound reached the ears of the two young men: "Awoo!"

Swano recognized the voice; Ron had heard similar voices in many places as well.

The long, drawn-out howl, like the clanging of metal in a bronze fortress, emanated from the wolf's mouth. Immediately after that howl, the two were astonished to find the same sounds echoing from the surrounding woods, near and far: "Awoo!" "Awoo~" "Awoo!"

As if in response to their king, a series of voices came from afar and then reached their ears.

"Oh no! Junior Ron, run! It's a pack of Wind Demon Wolves!"

When Swano heard the first wolf howl, his expression changed from composure to complete surprise.

After hearing the responses, although he maintained his usual composure and calmness, it was not hard to tell from his tone that his senior had a certain fear of the so-called giant wind wolf pack.

Of course, this doesn't mean the other person shouldn't have these feelings.

As a normal human being, even if one embarks on the extraordinary path of a wizard, as long as one's level of life has not undergone a transformation, fear is inevitable when facing a species that is far more powerful than oneself. It is a kind of emotion imprinted on the most essential and primitive part of the human body.

Before Ron could react after the other person finished speaking, he saw a figure fleeing the spot at a speed that was beyond the reach of the naked eye.

And this person was none other than Swano, the senior who had been standing next to him.

Seeing the other party's actions, he immediately understood. Although he had heard the other party mention the creature called the Wind Demon Giant Wolf when he was boasting about himself, the other party's words just now seemed to be "a pack of Wind Demon Giant Wolves".

This made Ron's heart sink.

He never expected that he would encounter such a thing on his second day in the Karazov Mountains.

Regardless of whether the Wind Demon Giant Wolves are as powerful as Swano claims, the fact that they have formed a pack is enough to clearly demonstrate the true strength of this so-called Wind Demon Giant Wolf pack.

It was definitely not something a lowly wizard apprentice like myself could handle.

Otherwise, the senior wouldn't have turned around and run away.

With this thought in mind, Ron forcibly suppressed the complex thoughts in his heart, as well as a trace of fear of the unknown.

He quickly mobilized all his magical power and chanted a spell: "Fire Feather Technique!"

Feathers formed of flames suddenly appeared in the void behind him, and the air was filled with scorching heat, which wilted all the flowers, plants and trees within a five-meter radius.

Ron no longer cared about concealing his presence and poured all his magic into the void behind him.

Then, the two originally illusory flame wings grew rapidly under these conditions, and even gradually began to take on a physical shape.

Finally, after sensing that his magic power was reduced to nearly half, Ron stopped what he was doing. Then he gently flapped his wings.

With a whoosh, he shot off like an arrow.

In the blink of an eye, he caught up with Swano, who was running ahead.

Feeling the intense heat emanating from behind him, Jin Nian's face showed a hint of surprise as he looked back.

Then he saw his junior classmate again, who was now charging towards him like an angel with fiery wings on his back: "Not bad, junior Ron, you can actually keep up with my speed. It seems I underestimated you."

"Senior, there's no need for you to joke with me like this at a time like this. Instead of talking about these random things, why don't you tell me what kind of creature the Wind Demon Giant Wolf you're talking about is? And is that wolf pack really that terrifying?"

"The two of us, one a high-level wizard apprentice and the other a mid-level wizard apprentice, should be able to handle it as long as it's not a large-scale monster horde, right? Senior, please don't tell me that there hasn't been a single beast tide attack like this in all these years, okay?"

Ron didn't pay attention to what Swano was saying. He just wanted to learn some information about the Wind Demon Giant Wolf from the other party. In case he had to fight with those beasts later, at least he would have a general understanding and wouldn't panic.
