Chapter 73 - Chapter 73 Return

The carriage moved slowly, and from time to time, the horses would snort once or twice, bringing a breath of fresh air.

Maureen put his hands on the carriage frame, occasionally looking back and smiling inside the carriage.

On the carriage, there were not only some of Morin's important experimental instruments, but also the finished potions he had refined during this period, and several alchemical grenades.

"I have no shortage of magic stones now, but I only need to keep the necessary potions. The others still need to be used, otherwise they will be wasted."

"Also, I still need to refine the alchemical grenades. After all, at my current stage, the more of these things the better."

Maureen pondered.

He has only been promoted to a third-class apprentice not long ago. Even if the witchcraft he has learned are all optimized and improved witchcraft templates, the improvement in his strength is limited. At most, he is equivalent to a strong third-class apprentice. If we evaluate it carefully, he is not yet at the level of looking down on third-class apprentices.

The combined witchcraft Dark Wind Ring is a trump card, but it may not be able to overwhelm all the third-level apprentices. After all, Morin does not think that other wizard apprentices have no other means. The magic item Thorn Blood Seal is quite powerful, but it is a bit shady.

Therefore, the alchemical grenade that can explode has undoubtedly become Morin's killer weapon.

"Ogulite, the ruler of the Dark Forest, requires us to return within a hundred days. If I go back directly, it won't take that long. So, I will slow down and refine more alchemical grenades."

Such a thought flashed through Morin's mind, and he couldn't help but smile.

Suddenly, Morin looked around and frowned.

He pulled the reins and stopped the carriage.

"Blake, come out."

Maureen said calmly.

It was quiet ahead and there was no sound around.

"Aisai!"

Morin's face was expressionless. He opened his palm and a ball of green acid with white smoke and boiling continuously appeared in his palm, then flew heavily to one side.

Acid missiles.

Hiss!

The sound of corrosion was heard, and the surroundings became bumpy and corroded as if concentrated sulfuric acid had been splashed on them.

There was a noise and Blake rolled out, covered in dirt and dust, looking very disheveled.

"Blake."

Maureen quietly looked at the figure that appeared in front of him, whispering Blake's name.

"Maureen." Blake's face looked very ugly. He looked at Maureen and slowly stood up.

"Blake, you have been following me from the beginning. You can't be idle and come to see me off."

Maureen smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Hearing Maureen's words, Blake's face flushed red. He took a few deep breaths and said, "Maureen, I'm sorry I caught up with you so suddenly, but I really want to know one thing."

"Where's Bina?"

"She went with you to the gathering place of gray pigeons, but when you came back, Bina was gone. Why did that happen? Why did she disappear?"

Blake looked excited and shouted loudly at Maureen.

Maureen raised her eyebrows slightly.

Then he smiled.

"So you want to know about Bina."

Morin put his hand on the carriage frame and said, "I don't know. We separated after we came out of the gray pigeon gathering place. It seems that she left for something. I don't know the details."

"You're talking nonsense!"

Blake panted, becoming more and more excited, and said, "Molin, you went there with Bina, how could you not know the news about Bina!"

Blake has been feeling uneasy ever since he saw Bina didn't come back.

His mind was wandering and he kept thinking about Bina, but he had few opportunities to interact with Morin, so he had no chance to ask. He also wanted Albert and the others to ask Morin, but when Albert and the others heard this, their expressions changed drastically and they quickly refused.

Blake was confused and didn't know why.

He did not go to the gray pigeon gathering place with Morin Albert and the others last time, and did not see Morin take action. Therefore, he could not understand Albert and the others' views on Morin, and the faint indescribable fear in their hearts.

For him, Maureen's departure was such a surprise that Blake panicked. Finally, he couldn't help but follow and ask Maureen about Bina.

Although he was also confused as to why Albert and the others treated Maureen in that way, when he thought of Bina, nothing else mattered.

"Where on earth did Bina go? Tell me, Maureen, tell me quickly!"

Blake roared and looked at Morin with fierce eyes, as if he would fight Morin to the death if Morin didn't say anything.

"For an unrelated woman, even though she is also a wizard, you are offending or even offending another wizard like this, Blake. You are not stupid enough to play with women."

Maureen's voice turned cold.

He no longer has much patience.

"Maureen, don't you want to tell me? I'll let you tell me. In order to know the news about Bina, I don't mind doing other things. You know, I became a wizard a long time ago..." A cold look appeared on Blake's face. His lips moved slightly, and he was about to start chanting a witchcraft spell.

However, just as he started to read, his face suddenly turned pale.

"Sizzle!"

A huge hand that seemed to be made of shadow stretched out from the side, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Blake's stomach silently, piercing Blake's entire body.

The sound of corrosion continued to be heard. Blake's flesh and clothes were constantly rotting, and everything was black, which looked very scary.

"Hand of Negative Energy, why is it so powerful? Also, Morin, when did you..."

There was no trace of blood on Blake's face. He looked at Maureen with disbelief in his eyes.

In response, Morin just glanced at him.

"How pitiful."

"Blake, should I say you are naive or stupid?"

There was a faint expression on Morin's face. He stretched out his hand, and a deep red fireball appeared on his palm, then flew out with a bang.

The flames died down, and all that remained was a patch of black ash.

The expression on Morin's face was calm. He gently whipped the horsewhip and walked forward again.

This kind of thing is just an episode on the way home, but it is very disturbing.

Morin adjusted his mindset and began to walk along the route towards the next wizard gathering place.

On the return route planned by Morin, he wanted to pass by as many wizard gathering places as possible.

There's still time anyway.

"Mr. Richard, your blood-blasting potion is of very good quality. In my career as a pharmacist, there are only a few that can compare to yours."

In a shop in a wizard gathering place.

Maureen was chatting with the owner of the shop, who had a huge red nose and looked quite weird.

He looked at Morin with undisguised admiration and surprise in his eyes.

"Five hundred magic stones." Morin raised his eyes, looked at the owner, and said lightly.

"Mr. Richard is so direct."

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, thought about it, then nodded and said, "Although the price is a bit high, Mr. Richard's finished medicine is of good quality, so, it's okay."

"Mr. Richard, deal."

After getting the magic stone from the shop owner, Morin ignored the shop owner's attempts to keep him or to get information or build a relationship with him. He simply said a few polite words and left.

He walked onto the street, holding the black silk bag, and in his hand he felt the texture of magic stone, hard, but very pleasing.

"Yes, after selling a batch of finished potions, I have magic stones again, and I can buy Hillland Metal."

This thought flashed through Morin's mind.

After getting back on the road, Morin changed his appearance and clothes to become a different person. Even his former acquaintances could not tell who he was. In addition, in order to avoid trouble, Morin also used a pseudonym.

Of course, for convenience, the fake name was simply Richard's name, since he was more familiar with this name anyway.

"However, before that, I still have to deal with some troubles behind me."

"Interesting, I'm being targeted again."

Morin glanced over and saw the person behind him staring at him with malicious eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Even though he was very careful, there were still some wizard hyenas who looked at him. He concealed himself very well, like a lone wandering wizard. In the eyes of some wizard hyenas, he was also a target to be considered for attack.

After all, it is human nature to bully the weak and fear the strong, and no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. As long as they can get a few more magic stones, those wizard hyenas don't mind killing a few more people.

This is something that happens in a certain wizard gathering place and is difficult to prohibit.

But it doesn't matter. Morin has encountered this kind of thing many times. It's just a one-time action.

On the way, he encountered people with good intentions and people with bad intentions. He encountered wizard families that wanted to invite him to join, and he also encountered wizard families that were cold and condescending to him. But this time, they were just trash wizard hyenas.

Simple things should be handled simply.

In the cave.

The fire was constantly dancing and shining, illuminating the faint glow of defensive witchcraft all around.

Morin looked ahead at a smooth stone platform carved out with a cross sword. His lips moved constantly as he chanted spells and made spell gestures.

Suddenly, Morin let out a loud shout.

"The omnipresent flame, I grant you life. From now on, you will obey my call and dedicate your strength to me (Ancient Andasis)!"

Crackling.

As Morin's shout rang out, several black spherical objects on the stone platform trembled, and the surface was covered by a layer of invisible flames, burning fiercely.

There were faint silver lines on their shells that were glowing, and the flames were absorbed by the silver lines and finally disappeared completely, as if they had never appeared.

The silver lines on the outer shells of those objects gradually dimmed and disappeared without a trace. It seemed that those black spherical objects were just like iron lumps that could be found everywhere. There was nothing strange about them at all.

But a smile appeared on Morin's face.

"Well, that's good. I finally succeeded in making the alchemical grenade." He picked up an alchemical grenade and said softly.

Recently, Morin has been refining potions while constantly purchasing Hillland metals and refining alchemical grenades. Now, Morin has become very skilled in refining alchemical grenades.

However, he finally arrived at the Dark Forest.

"I still have more than 3,000 magic stones on me now." Morin thought of his situation and his face looked a little unhappy. There was no way. Although Hillland Metal was not difficult to buy, the price was really too expensive. Even Morin, who was constantly refining potions, still had to pay for magic stones.

"Fortunately, I have more than seventy alchemical grenades."

Thinking of the number of alchemical grenades he had made, Morin's expression finally looked a little better.

These alchemical grenades are what Morin relies on to dare to return to the Dark Forest.

He let out a breath softly.

"Okay, let's go back now."

"Let's see if I can avoid the patrolling wizards near the Dark Forest and go directly to Gregory's residence."

Morin moved his sleeves and grasped a test tube in his hand. Inside was the powdered medicine he had carefully prepared, and he felt a little nervous.

He also made preparations to avoid it.

However, Morin had no idea whether he could escape or not. After all, he didn't know the methods of formal wizards, nor did he know the level of patrols near the Dark Forest.

Two days later.

Morin appeared outside the dark forest.

There was a green scene in front of me, but not far away was a black forest, dry and weird, which made people feel creepy.

"let's start."

Mo Lin's heart moved and he took out the test tube.

He was just about to open the test tube when suddenly, a loud voice came.

"Hey, young wizard apprentice, hello." A familiar huge lizard head came over, opened its mouth, revealing its sharp teeth that shone with cold light, and said, "You're back?"

"Hoho, oh hoho."

"Welcome back to the Dark Forest!"
