This third-level wizard apprentice of the Ring of Noth was named Joachim Frisius. Like Jenna, he was also a disciple of the wizard Gildarts. Although he and Jenna were not familiar with each other, he had at least heard that his mentor had recently accepted a very talented female disciple.
From the fact that he was sent here specially to check it out this time, it is not difficult to see that the instructor still values this female disciple named Jenna very much.
When Joachim arrived at the scene, the first thing he saw was the corpses all over the ground, especially the eye-catching corpse of a fishman with a steel fork, next to which were several wizard apprentices dressed in the garb of the Ring of Noth.
His first impression was that Jenna and her companions encountered a group of murlocs and went forward to encircle and suppress them, but later the murlocs came to support them, resulting in them being besieged and then defeated, and forced to die together with the enemy.
After walking around, Joachim found that this was indeed the case based on various signs at the scene.
Jenna and the other two had all their belongings, with no signs of having been plundered. The magic stones and witchcraft props were all there, and even a large amount of raw materials that could be exchanged for points that even he would be tempted by were all there.
This further deepened his first impression that Jenna and the others died from the siege of the murlocs, not from the attacks of other wizard apprentices.
Otherwise, it would be understandable if they didn't take away the witchcraft props for fear of being tracked, but it doesn't make sense that they didn't even take away the magic stones and a large amount of raw materials that can be exchanged for points.
Secondly, according to the mentor, he could sense the existence of the mark at first, but soon after, he could no longer sense it at all.
This can also be well explained from the on-site perspective.
Jenna died in the battle, so the tall steel-forked fishman warrior who killed Jenna had a tracking mark on his body. However, perhaps because his opponent was too seriously injured, he was barely killed by Jenna's remaining two companions. Therefore, the tracking mark naturally dissipated due to the death of the host.
If we speculate in this way, what the instructor said is completely consistent with what happened on the scene, and it all makes sense.
However, Joachim thought again and decided that for the sake of caution, he should perform a soul-calling ceremony, summon a few souls of the dead here, and just ask them casually to find out whether this is the case.
So Joachim began to recite the necromancy.
As the spell sounded,
there was no soul in front of me!
Hey!
Where are the dead souls?
This shouldn't be the case! Could it be that I haven't used the necromancy for too long?
Let's try again!
As the spell sounded,
Joachim looked at the empty sky and fell into deep self-doubt.
After a while, Joachim planned to retreat. He asked the fat Stitched Monster beside him to tie up Jenna and the other two with chains, and then carried them away. Since Jenna's head had been chopped off, the Stitched Monster stuffed it directly into his waist.
However, Joachim swept through the venue to find the eyeballs, dorsal fins and other raw materials of the high-level and mid-level murlocs.
At the same time, he also took the raw materials such as the fishman's eyeballs from the three people that could be used to exchange for points and put them into his own pocket.
As for the other diaries and several witchcraft props, Joachim had no intention of touching them. After all, he still had to report to his mentor. The magic stones and equipment were still there, which was enough to show the problem.
As Joachim packed up, he muttered to himself, "Tsk tsk, it's not a wasted trip. These things plus the ones I got before barely make up enough points to exchange for a bottle of Marli mixture!
What a pleasant surprise! Junior sister Jenna, although we have never met, I still want to thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I don't think I would have this opportunity! "
Joachim thought about it carefully. Basically, there was no doubt that Jenna and the other two were killed by the murloc. The only suspicious point was that the souls all dissipated in a short period of time. This was a bit strange, but not completely inexplicable.
He was about to return to report his investigation to Mentor Gildarts, and exchange the Marli potion for it
.
Just as Richard was still hesitating at the fork in the road, suddenly, a figure walked out silently from the fork in front of him, which immediately scared Richard and the other two.
Fortunately, the other party was also wearing a gray wizard robe, and there was a cross pattern of three bone sticks on his chest, which made Richard feel a lot more at ease, after all, he was a third-level wizard apprentice of his own school.
But when Richard saw the other party's cold eyes under the hood, he instantly felt as if he was being stared at by a powerful monster, and his body kept giving warnings.
Richard was very shocked. Is this the strength of the top third-level wizard apprentice in the school? The other party's aura was cold and powerful.
In the school, Richard would occasionally meet some third-level wizard apprentices, but basically no one could compare to the third-level wizard apprentice in front of him. If it weren't for the three bone stick marks on the other's chest, Richard would choose to stay away from this person immediately, because the other gave Richard a very dangerous feeling.
The hooded man looked Richard and the others up and down and said, "Judging from your auras, you should all have the strength of a second-level wizard apprentice. Why do you still have the mark of a first-level wizard apprentice?"
Richard didn't say anything, but handed the crystal ball of the task assigned to the team by the school to the other party.
After all, sometimes no matter how much you talk, it is not as convincing as the official products of the school.
After checking, the hooded man showed a surprised look on his face: "Hey! You are the top freshman of this year?"
It turns out that the mission crystal ball contains brief information about the members of Richard's team, including Chief Richard's information.
"Uh, Senior, it was just luck!"
The hooded man's attitude improved a lot, and he said, "Excessive modesty is pride. You can take first place among hundreds of freshmen. Even if you are placed among the second-level wizard apprentices, your strength can at least rank above the middle.
However, as a senior, I'd like to give you a piece of advice before you leave. This area is a bit dangerous. Given the strength of the three of you, especially with one of you seriously injured, it's still too dangerous to stay here. I suggest you leave early.
Seeing that the third-level wizard apprentice was about to leave, he took just two steps and turned to Richard and said, "There's something wrong with the murlocs in this area. I just killed a few groups of murlocs, and they seem to be gathering in this direction. I think there must be something attracting or summoning them."
The hooded man pointed to another fork in the road.
There's something wrong with the fishman, Richard thought for a moment, and this was the direction the statue was guiding him in.
"By the way, I see that the three of you are pretty strong. Are you interested in cooperating with me? Listen carefully, this is cooperation, not teaming up. Cooperation does not violate the rules of this time. I will deal with the murlocs who are equivalent to the strength of a third-level wizard apprentice, and you will take care of the other small fish. The spoils will be distributed in the same way. How do you think?
As for your companion, I have a bottle of special healing potion here that can restore about 80% of his combat power in a short period of time. However, in the subsequent missions, you will have to take less eyeballs and fins of three intermediate murlocs as compensation."
Richard and the other two looked at each other and saw desire in their companions' eyes, especially Andrea, whose eyes were burning with desire.
