Initiative

A silent exchange of glances occurred in the corner of the building materials store. →

In the end, it was the female Black Magician in front of us who left first, with a slight frown.

As she reached the corner ahead, the female Black Magician suddenly turned around and looked at Saine again.

At this moment, Saine was also looking at the other party.

A few seconds later, the female Black Magician walked straight away and went to the store counter to pay.

This tall female Black Magician mostly buys dark-elemental materials.

For example, the other party bought two of the Dark Being mummies on the shelf just now.

Over the years, Saine has also dabbled in the fields of dark and Necromancy Element.

Although it's far from reaching the level of fire magic, the materials shop still has some items that Saine can use.

The female Black Magician bought quite a few things, but the overall value was relatively low.

Saine noticed that the other party's payment methods were mostly Magic Beast Core and biological crystals, with virtually no Energy Crystal or Magic Coin.

This is probably the normal payment method used by the dark Black Magician Black Domain. Saine judged that those grayish-white biological crystals were probably crystals of some kind of undead creature.

When Saine went to the counter to pay, a male and a female Mage happened to be standing in front of him.

A moment later, Saine tossed more than ten Magic Coin onto the counter.

The staff at the materials store were trying to find him some low- to medium-grade Energy Crystal.

"Don't bother looking anymore," Saine said impatiently.

The staff member was an old man with hardly any hair left. He glanced at Saine and added three low-grade White Bone Grass to the magical materials Saine had purchased.

The value of these three low-level White Bone Flower is roughly equivalent to the change needed to give to Saine.

He collected all the dark and Death Element magic materials in front of him into his Space Equipment. When Saine walked out of the shop again, the crowd outside was bustling, and he could no longer see the tall female Mage with long black hair.

Beneath the Azure Fire Eye Mask, there was a hint of distress and a touch of complexity in his expression.

After glancing around a few more times, Saine followed the main direction of the crowd and headed east.

In recent years, Ellen Harbor has attracted Knight and Mage from the Western Islands and the Wizard World.

Therefore, as early as six months ago, this prosperous mega-port city had already issued a flight restriction policy.

The skies above the city are subject to several layers of no-fly zones. Apart from Ellen Harbor law enforcement personnel, no outsiders are allowed to fly at high altitudes, not even Third-Level Great Magician.

With Saine's abilities, he could only maintain a levitation of one or two meters, which doesn't even qualify as flying.

Saine didn't know was that after he walked out of the "Daksi Materials Shop"...

Not far from him, at a street corner, the female Black Magician who had briefly exchanged silent glances with him suddenly appeared from the shadows around the corner.

The female Black Magician stared at Saine's departing figure for a long time, until Saine was almost lost in the crowd. She paused for a moment, then followed him.

Finding someone in a giant city with hundreds of thousands of level one Knight and Mage is far too difficult for Saine.

Furthermore, as the opening time of the Knight Continent approaches, the total number of Knight and Mage in Ellen Harbor is no longer just a few hundred thousand.

It's very likely that it has already surpassed one million!

A million beings of level one or higher, a powerful force capable of annihilating several planes, were all concentrated in one city.

No wonder Ellen Harbor has a no-fly zone. If chaos were to break out here, even level four or five creatures would have a hard time dealing with it in a short time.

And with the opening of the once-in-a-millennium Knight Continent, there are countless other cities like Ellen Harbor within the Western Islands.

Saine was lucky; after losing track of the female Mage and drifting through two months in a daze...

He finally found the other party's trail again.

The sheer number of level one and above creatures in the surrounding area made it impossible for Saine's detection magic to lock onto and track the target due to the interference of so many forces.

He saw the female Mage purely with his naked eye.

She was just passing by a square in the southern part of Ellen Harbor.

Because the Mage from the Black Domain were generally ostracized by the normal Holy Tower Knight and Mage, they mainly acted in groups in Ellen Harbor.

Even the authorities of Ellen Harbor dispatched a special law enforcement team to follow those Black Magician.

It wasn't out of fear that those Black Magician, whose average Life Level was around level one, would cause any chaos; rather, the main purpose of this enforcement team was to protect them.

Because at this time, the number of Third-Level Great Magician appearing in Ellen Harbor far exceeded the Level-1 Magician in these Black Domain.

No matter how vicious these Black Magician are, they can't cause any trouble here.

What Saine as odd was that the female Mage had never been accompanied by any other Black Magician throughout the entire ordeal.

If she changed her mage robe to a different color and removed the badge from her chest.

She estimated that she would become an ordinary female Mage in Ellen Harbor.

She just has a rather cold demeanor.

Saine is not the type to strike up conversations with strangers.

But at this moment, a flutter of excitement rose from the bottom of my heart, and I couldn't find any trace of the other person for the past two months.

This prompted Saine to step forward.

If possible, he would like to ask the other party to leave a Crystal Ball mark.

This should be the first time Saine has acted so proactively so far.

The increasingly dense crowd around him made it more and more difficult for Saine to squeeze into the center of the square from the outer edge.

The female Black Magician seemed not to notice Saine, and instead walked straight towards the west side of the square.

How could Saine let the other party disappear from his sight again? He quickened his pace.

In a city like Ellen Harbor, which has a large number of Knight and Mage of level one or above, although there has been no major chaos or conflict so far, there are still some minor skirmishes.

Let alone those Black Magician, even normal Holy Tower Magician have their share of bickering and hostility.

The Holy Tower also often provides battle arenas specifically for these Mage with personal conflicts to resolve their grudges.

Surrounded by the crowd, Saine did not activate Magic Shield; he simply pushed forward using his physical strength.

A Knight in silver armor happened to block Saine's path.

The opponent's thick body and height of over 2.5 meters almost completely obscured Saine's view.

Saine didn't hold back and bumped into the other man from the side, just off the shoulder.

"Thump!" A dull sound rang out, and the incredibly burly Silver Armor Knight was knocked back by Saine.

"You fucking!" Knight are generally impulsive and easily angered.

Their hormone levels were much higher than those of Mage, and they were much more aggressive.

The Silver Armor Knight turned around fiercely to look back, assuming it was one of his fellow Knight who had done it.

But when he looked back, he only saw one person closest to him, a Saine had stepped sideways in front of him.

Judging from his attire, Saine is clearly a Mage!
