Wizard: I'm leveling up by AFK in another world

"For the proud and arrogant Isabella, this is worse than killing her." Simon nodded. "There are still three years left. If she still cannot become a formal wizard, then it's out of her control."

"So this campaign was very important to her, but she never expected something like this to happen..."

The conquerors have disappeared, and their starship has crashed.

The current situation of the conquest is extremely unclear, and there is a high possibility that the contribution points will reach the standard but the person will be unable to return to Wuhua Island.

Considering the time commitment, Isabella's only option is to find a way to complete her advancement within the Silver Tree Ring.

However, the elemental interference from the other world greatly slows down her meditation speed.

At the same time, due to the severing of ties with Wuhua Island, all of the legion's resources will be strictly controlled, and the value of contribution points will plummet.

Isabella must exchange as many resources as possible to help her advance in rank before her contribution points become worthless.

Therefore, for the sake of the mission, she had to risk her life to save Garrett, even though she knew he was in a trap.

Simon's words gave Rhodes a completely new understanding of the icy witch.

"I see." But he still had some questions. "Then what about you and Barton? Why are you two advanced apprentices so devoted to her?"

Such mercenary wizard apprentice squads, composed entirely of advanced apprentices, are extremely rare.

After all, each advanced apprentice can recruit enough intermediate apprentices.

With a group of subordinates, the advanced apprentice captains only need to choose the right tasks and they can basically sit back and wait for the results.

"Because, without her, we wouldn't be who we are today," Simon smiled.

"Barton and I are actually descendants of servants of the Stuart family. From birth, we were destined to be the guardian knights of the Stuart descendants."

"But Isabella didn't see it that way. She broke my soul contract with Barton, sent us to be tested for mental talent, and let us enter the wizarding academy with her as classmates."

Simon took a deep breath, his expression more solemn than ever before.

"She gave us the power to transcend class, she gave us dignity. From the moment she broke off the contract, my life and Patton's life were forever hers."

"On the surface, we are her best friends and teammates, but Barton and I both know that we will always be her guardian knights on her wizarding path."

At this point, Simon patted Rhodes on the shoulder.

"This is the secret of our team. Now that you're a temporary member, that's why I'm telling you this."

"Although Isabella doesn't say it, the fact that she agreed to let you join us means she recognizes your value. She's a person who's cold on the outside but warm on the inside; she's just used to using frost to protect herself."

After hearing this long story, Rod was deeply moved and remained unsettled for a long time.

"Let's get to know each other again, Rod Weasley." He solemnly extended his hand. "I think I'm no longer your temporary teammate from now on."

"We'll have to see how you perform after that, you're just an average apprentice," Simon said with a smile, shaking Rhodes' hand and teasing him.

"Then you'd better watch out."

"Very confident! By the way, my story is over, it's your turn. How did you and Claire meet?"

Although Simon was determined to help the arrogant Isabella make more friends, he didn't just befriend just anyone.

When Simon rescued Claire and witnessed her use of witchcraft he had never seen before, he knew that this mid-level apprentice was no ordinary person.

"You have excellent taste! I think the best thing I've ever done in my life was getting to know Claire."

Rhodes recounted the story of the Blue Sea Realm, and Claire's legendary experiences at the Grey Amber Wizarding Academy.

"That's amazing," Simon exclaimed repeatedly. "Now I understand why you weren't worried at all that he would die in this volcano."

"That's true, but I still want to find him as soon as possible," Rod said. "This volcano gives me a bad feeling; I have a feeling that something is happening..."

"Absolutely. Don't forget, he's the only one who has the Soul-Cleansing Elixir! If we can't find him, we'll probably be consumed by the Blood Flame before we even get out of this volcano."

The two stopped talking and continued walking forward.

Perhaps it was some kind of honeymoon luck, but they soon discovered unusual clues.

"This looks like the mark left by some kind of wood elemental magic," Simon said, pointing to the rock wall corroded by the [Withering Poisonous Mist]. "It's very new; it must have only been a few hours."

"Could it be Claire?" Rhodes exclaimed excitedly. "He's the one with wood elemental affinity!"

Simon raised an eyebrow slightly.

The trace of witchcraft felt very familiar to him; it reminded him of that person.

But the question is, how can it be so powerful?

It clearly possesses the power of an advanced apprentice!

The other two advanced apprentices traveling with him, Garrett and Sylva, are both amethyst and earth elemental affinities, and Sylva is an ice elemental affinity; it couldn't be either of them.

He was promoted to senior apprentice in less than a day?

This is getting more and more interesting.

"Whether it's him or not, following this trail is better than wandering around like a headless fly." Simon withdrew his hand from the rock wall and quietly pinched some powder into his hand.

"Let's go, and keep an eye on our surroundings."

……

……

Isabella squinted, secretly observing the small house surrounded by vines in front of her.

Claire suddenly suggested making a potion, so I asked her to wait a bit and meditate to restore her magic power.

Then this guy summoned those giant, Vajra-like vines that surrounded him, mysteriously fiddling with something.

Isabella had to admit that she was now completely "fascinated" by Claire.

This guy with this surname not only possessed ancient alchemy secrets that even she didn't know about, but also incredibly advanced to the rank of advanced apprentice in a single day.

She also deeply regretted not having secretly peeked at what the alchemy technique looked like when the other person was still a mid-level apprentice.

Now she can't see it even if she wants to.

This person had just been promoted, yet seemed to be very comfortable with the mental power of an advanced apprentice, making it impossible for her to find a breakthrough.

And who knows when the magic will be restored.

Just as she was feeling down, Isabella's eyes suddenly sharpened, and she immediately stood up.

An unusual magical fluctuation is approaching.

A glimpse of the motionless vine-covered cottage in her peripheral vision stirred a sudden unease within her usually calm heart.

Has this guy gone mad from concocting medicine? Doesn't he have any sense of vigilance at all?

But she didn't say anything in the end; instead, she raised her wand.

Not knowing what Claire was up to inside, she didn't want to disturb her and cause a backlash of her magic.

What if the enemy who comes is not a threat and they call Claire out? Wouldn't she lose face?

No, what am I thinking...?

Isabella shook her head, forcing herself to concentrate.

Two clear figures appeared in my field of vision.

"Simon?"

Isabella raised an eyebrow and put down her wand.
