Sixth Ring Wizard

Chapter 45 Ambush

"Deep Blue, analyze the spell models of the three spells: Ice Shield, Mana Shield, and Blink, and calculate the time and mana required to construct the models."

Once Herag arrived home, he immediately began reviewing the spell models of the three spells. After going through them all, he had Deep Blue input the data and analyze it.

"Task file created, data entry and analysis in progress..."

One minute later, Deep Blue provided the result.

"Level 0 spell Ice Shield: Estimated spell model construction time is 15 minutes, and the estimated mana consumption for model construction is 13%".

"Level 0 spell Mana Shield: Estimated spell model construction time is 20 minutes, and the estimated mana consumption for model construction is 15%".

"Level 0 spell Blink: Estimated spell model construction time is 30 minutes, and the estimated mana cost for model construction is 21%".

"The three tasks are scheduled to take 66 minutes to execute sequentially, and are expected to consume 40% of your mana."

Looking at the calculation results in front of him, Herag muttered to himself, "Right now, Deep Blue can only execute tasks sequentially, not multiple tasks simultaneously. The mana consumption isn't high; I'll finish these three spells today."

He then gave the instructions: "Deep Blue, begin constructing the spell models for Ice Shield, Mana Shield, and Blink."

"The mission has been created..."

In Herag's mind, Deep Blue began by constructing the spell models for three spells in sequence, starting with Ice Shield.

To an ordinary wizarding apprentice, this would only make them think that Horag is crazy; no one would construct spell models for three spells in a row.

Sixty-six minutes later.

"Spell model construction is complete."

It would take an ordinary wizard apprentice at least a year to master these three spells, but Herag only took a little over an hour.

"Six level zero spells: four defensive, one offensive, and one movement spell."

Herag took stock of the level zero spells he possessed. As long as he wasn't facing a formal wizard or a powerful third-class wizard apprentice, he should be able to protect himself without any problems.

"I'll go mushroom digging again in a couple of days, and first I'll study the data on these spell models." Herag only has one magic stone left. It will cost money to enroll in potion classes, and practicing potion making will definitely cost a lot of money as well.

Harvesting Sleeping Mushrooms is currently the most efficient and safest task, and Hrag is prepared to take advantage of this task to harvest as many as possible.

Three days later, Hrag set out again for Moonlight Forest.

Not long after he went out, a figure emerged from the corner behind him; it was Sunny, who was with McCann.

He took out the runestone and sent a message to McKen: "He's gone out, and judging by the direction, he's heading to Moonlight Forest."

"Good! Finally out the door!" Ever since McCann found out that Herag had dug up so many Sleeping Mushrooms, he had called on Sunny, and the two of them took turns keeping watch near Herag's house.

They waited for three days until Hrag finally came out.

McKen guessed that Herag had some special method to quickly find Sleeping Mushrooms, and Herag was only a first-class wizarding apprentice who had just joined the Woodlands. He and Sunny discussed it and concluded that if the two of them joined forces, they could definitely take down Herag, and then force him to reveal his method, so they could earn a lot of magic stones by digging for Sleeping Mushrooms.

McCann was even considering dealing with Sunny, and he believed that Herrag was no threat and could be easily taken down.

He couldn't possibly let a second person know the special method; it was Sunny who needed to be careful.

……

Herag waited for Hellfoot to arrive at the post station. He looked back and saw that neither Sunny nor McKen had appeared.

He smiled and said, "It's fine if we go together."

Deep Blue's environmental detection range is 250 meters, and Sunny and McCann had already been exposed to Herag's view.

"Senni: Strength 2.0, Agility 1.8, Constitution 2.8, Spirit 6.7."

"McKen: Strength 2.1, Agility 2.2, Constitution 3.1, Spirit 7.3."

Helag already knew the data on these two people perfectly well, and was just waiting for them to take the bait.

Fighting is forbidden in the towns and northern woodlands of Moonglade, but Moonglade does not prohibit its members from killing each other.

It's normal for wizards to have conflicts of interest. If you have any conflicts, go outside and resolve them yourself. Moonglade won't interfere with your affairs.

Whoever survives becomes stronger and more valuable to the forest; that's the law of survival here.

Unless you're an important figure in Moonglade, nobody cares whether you live or die, as long as you don't disrupt the normal order of the glade.

This is why McKen and his companion could only lie in wait outside; they dared not make a move in the northern forest region. Only when Hrag reached places like Moonlight Forest could they act with impunity.

Herag was traveling alone in the carriage. After arriving at the entrance to Moonlight Forest, he walked inside and waited for McKen and the other man to arrive.

Not long after, another carriage arrived, and the two people who got off were McCann and Sunny.

After getting out of the car, the two of them looked around warily.

"That kid should be inside by now," McCann said, looking at the dense Moonlight Forest.

"How about we split up? I'll search the left side and you search the right side?" Sunny suggested.

McCann nodded and said, "Okay, once you find that kid, don't make any rash moves. Quietly notify me so we can take him out together."

"No problem," Sunny said with a smile.

The two entered the Moonlight Forest together and then parted ways. McCann sneered, thinking, "I'll take care of that kid first, then I'll take care of you."

After walking a distance, Sunny looked back at McCann's location.

His idea was the same as McCann's: to get the secret of Hrag and then kill McCann.

"Hrag, whatever you do, don't go to the right." McKen groped his way forward through the jungle, observing the tracks on the ground as he went.

He quickly discovered that the bushes had been trampled and there were obvious human footprints on the ground.

Sunny beamed with delight: "Hrag went this way."

In the dark jungle in the distance, Herag observed Sunny through the Deep Blue environmental monitoring system.

He heard their initial conversation clearly. He stayed at the maximum distance within Deep Blue's monitoring range, ensuring that he could control their positions without revealing his own.

Herag waited, waiting for the two to create some distance between them before taking them down one by one.

His first choice was Sunny, who was relatively weaker.

Herag remained hidden in the jungle, slowly retreating as Sunny advanced, always maintaining a safe distance.

Those traces in the forest were deliberately left by him to lure Senny deeper into the mountains.

Once Sunny entered a relatively open area, Herag made his move.

A corrosive arrow quickly formed in his hand, silently piercing through the air and striking Senny's abdomen.

The area where Sunny lived had no tall trees; it was covered with low shrubs.

He became alert after hearing a whooshing sound.

When he noticed that the bushes next to him had been cut down, he realized the danger and instinctively dodged to the side.

The corrosive arrow grazed his waist and abdomen, not directly through his stomach, but it still left a wound, and that was enough.
