This Knight's combat instincts and sensitivity to external gazes are simply exaggerated to the extreme. →69🅂🄷🅄🅇.🄲🄾🄼

Yet another being whose strength surpasses that of an ordinary Formal Magician!

The clanging sound of the metal spear vibrating could be heard.

The opponent clearly had the ability to pierce him with a single shot, but chose to thrust the spear into the ground less than half a meter in front of Saine.

Sensing that he was being targeted, Saine stopped hiding and stepped out.

Given the strength of the Knight maintaining order City of Mozhsuobula, it was clear that a mere apprentice whose Mental Strength had just reached the Advanced Apprentice, but whose magic was almost entirely intermediate, could not possibly cause any trouble.

After all, even the Formal Black Wizard were defeated.

The appearance of Saine caused a stir among many Knight outside the city.

Not all Knight discovered the hidden Saine.

In fact, Saine is quite far from City of Mozhsuobula. In such a dark and noisy environment, unless detection magic is used, even Formal Black Wizard would have a hard time finding Saine.

This is why it is said that the Knight who discovered Saine was far more powerful than an ordinary Formal Magician.

"As expected of Brother Bakda, he was able to find even a little Black Wizard Apprentice hiding so far away."

"Brother Bakda has experienced several Plane War and his strength has reached the Level-2 Earth Knight."

"I heard that Brother Bakda's Bloodline power is quite rare. It's just a pity that there were too few opponents who could make Brother Bakda activate his Bloodline Transformation in this battle to eliminate the Black Magician. We had no chance to see it." The voices of the Knight came from their conversation.

The pressure exerted on Saine by the surrounding Knight was no less than the pressure that the academy's Black Magician usually exerted on Saine.

These are all powerful beings at the first Life Level.

It seems that the Surface World forces have been plotting to destroy City of Mozhsuobula for quite some time.

Besides the Holy Tower Magician, many Knight with exaggerated power were also recruited.

Among these Knight, the one who put the most pressure on Saine was the leading knight, a strong Knight dressed in full silver armor.

This is the strongest human that Saine has ever seen.

His nearly three-meter-tall frame made him stand there like a small silver mountain.

Furthermore, the other party did not resemble Stanson, a high-level Black Wizard Apprentice.

It's not that the size of the body only increases when Bloodline Magic is activated, but rather that the opponent is naturally this strong.

Given Stanson's Advanced Apprentice level... Saine guessed that this Silver Armor Knight could easily flick the opponent away with a single finger.

Saine was, after all, someone who had seen Level-4 lifeform.

Surrounded by a group of Knight and with a Level-2 Earth Knight staring at him, Saine did not back down.

Throughout the entire process, Saine remained calm and composed.

It was this composure and calmness that made the Silver Armor Knight in front of him look at him with new respect.

Even those powerful first-level beings from other worlds sometimes dare not face his majesty, but this little apprentice can.

Moreover, this Silver Armor Knight had seen countless people. Although he didn't have the ability to read minds, the blond apprentice in front of him gave him a feeling that he was much better than those trashy kids who mingled with the Black Magician.

It was under these circumstances that the Silver Armor Knight spoke up, "Are you Black Wizard Apprentice in this underground city?"

The Silver Armor Knight had a deep voice, which was quite in line with the other party's physique.

The surrounding Knight fell silent immediately after he spoke, demonstrating his prestige among Knight.

"Yes," Saine replied in a deep voice.

Under these circumstances, it would be difficult for Saine to lie. His Mental Strength, which was far beyond that of ordinary people, could not be faked, and these Knight would naturally be able to discover his identity as a magic apprentice.

As for whether he is Black Wizard Apprentice.

In this underground world, what other apprentices could there be besides Black Wizard Apprentice?

"Brother, handcuff him!"

"Two months ago, Jike was ambushed and injured by a Black Wizard Apprentice."

"Poor Jike, he wasn't injured by the Black Magician, but by an apprentice instead."

"I wonder how many people will laugh at us when we get back to the Knights' Hall," said a Knight in yellow armor.

The Knight wasn't wearing a mask, Saine vaguely saw a hint of frivolity and mockery on his face out of the corner of his eye.

Just as the Knight finished speaking, the other Knight had gathered around burst into laughter.

The Silver Armor Knight did not laugh. With a wave of his right hand, the yellow-armored Knight, who had been waiting nearby, stepped forward in shackles.

The shackles were engraved with obvious demonic patterns, and there was also a row of sharp barbs on the inside.

With the eyes of an Alchemy Apprentice, Saine guessed that these shackles must have the function of binding and imprisoning Mage.

Saine's guess was correct; in fact, these shackles were made specifically to target Formal Black Wizard.

Saine's "honor" is mostly due to the Mental Strength of his Advanced Apprentice.

Advanced magic is already posing a slight threat to these formal Knight.

Although it's unlikely to be fatal, getting injured would certainly be embarrassing if word got out.

However, what truly chilled Saine to the bone was that as the yellow-armored Knight drew closer, the knight's eyes were fixed on the staff in Saine 'Saine hand and the Space Ring on his wrist.

These are greedy eyes.

Before the yellow-armored Knight could put the shackles on Saine, Saine hurriedly said, "I am an apprentice who has just returned from the Yellow Sand World. I have important news to report to the esteemed Holy Tower Magician!"

Saine's statement surprised all the Knight around him, including the Yellow Armor Knight.

"The Yellow Sand World? Is that the Alien Plane portal that Master Romwozi of the Dawn Holy Tower and that Level-3 Peak Black Magician fought over more than two years ago?"

"There are even apprentices out here?" one of the Knight around exclaimed in surprise.

"Whoosh!" A commotion arose among the civilians not far from Saine and the others, and no one knew what had happened.

The Silver Armor Knight seemed to be still thinking with his head down, but the yellow-armored Knight in front of Saine paid no attention to him.

A pair of shackles were about to bind Saine's hands and feet, including his right hand, which was wearing a metal glove, and was about to touch Saine's Space Ring.

Just then, a cacophony of shouts from the common people erupted.

The civilians City of Mozhsuobula were in a state of chaos because the Knight who had been maintaining order had all come to watch Saine Black Wizard Apprentice, Thane.

At a glance, there were at least a hundred civilians approaching this area.

To Saine's utter surprise, the first to speak up for him were these ordinary people whom no one would normally give a second glance.

"My Knight, this magic apprentice is a very kind person!"

"We didn't starve to death a few years ago, all thanks to the charity and help of this apprentice!" A slightly old and hoarse voice came from behind.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of civilians who had come closer knelt down in large numbers.
