"After you're done, come find me in the lounge."
Colot added.
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving Peter and the Dark Wizard behind.
Peter felt helpless.
However, he had no choice but to do as he was told.
After all, he was just an apprentice wizard, and Colot was a Junior Wizard. He had to follow his orders!
Wizards were also divided into ranks.
From low to high, they were the apprentice wizards in gray robes, Junior Wizards in brown robes, Intermediate Wizards in blue robes, and Advanced Wizards in white robes.
Above the Advanced Wizards were the wizards directly affiliated with the kingdom.
Those wizards were of higher rank and had stronger magic powers. Peter had only heard about them in the conversations of the warriors and knew nothing about the details!
The highest level in a Wizard Tower was the Inspector General.
Usually, an Advanced Wizard would hold that position.
Unfortunately, Peter hadn't been here for long.
He had never seen the Inspector General!
At that moment, Peter glanced at the Dark Wizard and noticed that the Dark Wizard was also staring at him with a pair of gloomy eyes.
The gaze was sharp, making Peter shiver all over.
He had no doubt that if it weren't for the seal, the Dark Wizard would tear him to pieces without hesitation!
Swallowing his saliva, Peter summoned his courage.
He approached the Dark Wizard, clearly still afraid of him.
But when he realized that the Dark Wizard didn't resist, Peter's heart gradually relaxed.
He bent down and lifted the Dark Wizard up.
This guy was really heavy!
Peter carried the Dark Wizard to the heavy iron door in a corner of the Wizard Tower.
"Creak..."
The iron door slowly opened with a screeching sound.
Before him lay darkness and bone-chilling cold.
This was the underground area of the Wizard Tower, where Dark Wizards and various dangerous creatures were imprisoned!
Generally speaking, no one was allowed to enter this place.
But today was an exception!
Peter held the Dark Wizard on his shoulder with one hand and an old lantern in the other.
The candlelight swayed as he went down the spiral stairs. Peter felt as if he was about to completely blend into the darkness.
With the light of the candle, Peter could vaguely see peculiar runes carved on the rough stone walls.
Those were symbols imbued with magical power!
They formed a powerful seal, imprisoning those dangerous creatures forever in this dark and deep underground.
After walking for a long time, Peter finally arrived at the first underground floor.
By that point, he had switched from carrying the Dark Wizard to dragging him along.
This Dark Wizard had a much stronger physique than a normal human, and ignorant people might mistake him for an orc!
Fortunately, this Dark Wizard had already been sealed, allowing Peter to bring him here smoothly.
The first underground floor primarily held low-level Dark Wizards, undead, ghosts, vampires, werewolves, and other humanoid creatures with relatively low levels of threat.
Thus, the area on the first underground floor resembled a regular prison.
However, it was not a regular prison.
And the inmates held here were far from ordinary!
On both sides of the narrow corridor were iron doors engraved with magical symbols.
Behind those doors were the imprisoned individuals.
They relentlessly pounded on the iron doors, creating a clanging sound.
At the same time, mad and eerie voices echoed incessantly.
This made Peter, walking among them, feel as if he had entered hell!
The deeper he went, the more intense the pervasive cold became.
After walking for a while, Peter arrived at an empty cell. After taking a glance, he threw the Dark Wizard inside.
Clang!
The heavy iron door closed.
The runes on the door flickered, indicating that the seal had been established, and the Dark Wizard had been successfully imprisoned!
"How tiring!"
Peter sighed.
He used his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead. The back of his clothes had been soaked with sweat from the work.
If only he knew the Levitation Spell!
That way, he could easily lock up the Dark Wizard and not spend so much effort.
"It seems like I need to meditate and practice diligently to learn magic and become a real wizard as soon as possible!" Peter continued to himself.
"Otherwise, how can I manage if I don't even know the most basic Levitation Spell? There will surely be many more tasks like this in the future!"
Peter set a small goal for himself.
With such a high-intensity workload every day, if he didn't learn these simple spells, he would be kicked out of the Wizard Tower in less than a year.
Not to mention other tasks, even something as simple as cleaning would be much easier with Levitation Spell.
Some apprentice wizards would use the Levitation Spell to make their cloth float when wiping high windows.
It was much easier than climbing up a ladder and wiping slowly!
"Alright, I'll start meditating and practicing once I get back!"
Peter muttered to himself.
After taking a short rest and regaining some strength, Peter prepared to leave.
However, at that moment, he suddenly felt dizzy and lost consciousness.
Whoosh!
A strange feeling surged up.
In a daze, he seemed to see a peculiar-looking magic book.
The book wasn't physical and didn't appear before his eyes but directly manifested in his mind.
The style of the book seemed ancient, as if it had been around for many years.
On the cover of the magic book, there was a line of words, which was the title of the book.
Codex of All Realms!
"Codex of All Realms? What's this..."
Peter took a deep breath.
In his mind, he imagined opening the book, and immediately an invisible hand seemed to follow his command.
The pages turned, and the contents were displayed before Peter's eyes.
[Prisoner: Oddssen]
[Infamy Level: Three Stars]
[Strength: Advanced Wizard, Level Three]
[Status: Imprisoned]
[Capture participation rate: 1%]
[Reward: 10 magic power per hour ]
...
There was a portrait next to this series of information.
It was the Dark Wizard, Oderson, who had just been imprisoned in the dungeon by Peter!
There were also images below.
Upon closer inspection, Peter realized that the images depicted Oderson, the Dark Wizard, conducting acts such as slaughtering villages, drawing blood from people, and practicing black magic.
Was this the information of the Dark Wizard?
Peter immediately understood!
At the same time, he realized that he might have obtained a fortuitous encounter that belonged to a transmigrator!
In this "Codex of All Realms," any Dark Wizard or monster that Peter participated in capturing would be recorded.
Furthermore, based on the severity of the criminal's crimes, their strength, and the level of Peter's participation in their capture, various levels of rewards would be provided.
For example, this Oddssen.
Peter had only locked him in a cell and received a reward of 10 magic power per hour!
