Chapter 492: The Last Days (1/2)

The plot got uncovered in the end. The wizards were outsmarted in their game.

It turned out that the captured girls were already discussing months before on what they could do in order to gain freedom once they landed in that foreign continent dominated by the existence of wizards.

The major hook would be the talk about the mysterious people called The Astronians who possessed never before seen weapons into this world.

Alas, the girls did not expect that the mere topic about a greater power would be so effective in the minds of these old and powerful wizards.

”HAHAHA! I can't believe that I would see the day that almost all the wizards in the White Tower would travel as one into another continent!”

A humorous wizard laughed openly as he looked at the faces of his co passengers.

There were more than a thousand wizards in this ship. With the magic on their hands, the trip back into the barbarian continent would be cut by at least half the duration.

These great wizards would expect to land on solid grounds again some 3 months into the future.

With this much free time, it was all too natural for the wizards to socialize amongst themselves.

”How strong do you think are the weapons of those Astronians?” A lady wizard asked a handsome gentleman beside her.

It did not need telling that this man was also a mighty wizard like her.

”At least something that could kill a level 6 wizard. Perhaps more.”

”It's common knowledge that the strongest wizard to ever live in the barbarian continent was only at level 6.

The barbarian continent lacked the necessary supplies in bringing up someone more powerful than that.” The man replied in length.

He was of course talking about the obvious lack of resources in the barbarian continent. Unlike their wizard continent that could easily birth level 8 wizards in their midst.

”Is it possible for them to defeat a level 9 wizard?” The lady asked once more.

With their numbers advantage, it would have been too easy for her to be confident in this trip but alas, something was bothering her deep inside. A woman's intuition was truly scary indeed.

”Maybe. Same as you are, I don't know for sure also.” The man answered and went on a long silence after that.

After an indeterminate amount of time, he remembered something very important in this quest.

”There's a rumor that the Wizard King is also here amongst us.” The man lowered his voice deliberately.

”What?!” The woman could not hold her reaction in the same way. One should know that the Wizard King was the most powerful existence in the wizard continent.

His legend has been widely spread for millions of years as he was both feared and respected by experts and mortals alike.

The Wizard King was the only level 9 wizard in the continent and one of the few level 9 masters in this fantasy world.

”Maybe it's merely a ruse to keep us from going into the barbarian continent.”
