Entrustment

Perhaps sensing his impending doom, Moxidu spoke at length with Saine on his last night. →

Besides instructing Saine to conceal his identity as Black Wizard Apprentice when he arrives on the Surface World, he also took the opportunity to tell Saine about the general situation of the Underdark and its surroundings.

"There is a Magic Map of the Underdark inside the Space Bracelet. It was made by your master more than a hundred years ago when he first came to the Underdark."

"I checked your background records in the second year after I took you in as my teacher."

"You are indeed not a commoner. Normally, when the Black Magician of City of Mozhsuobula go out to collect apprentice seeds, they rarely target nobles."

"It's not that I'm afraid of those ordinary nobles, but rather to avoid unnecessary trouble."

"After all, the nobles in the Wizard World can basically all have some connection with Knight and Mage."

"You were one of those Black Magician who went out to plunder, obtained from specialized human traffickers."

"The Black Magician of our City of Mozhsuobula generally have connections with human traffickers or bandit groups within the Underdark. They often leave some things that are inconvenient for us to do ourselves to them."

"Many of the new apprentices admitted to the academy each year come from this group."

"I haven't been able to find out exactly which noble family you come from, but I do know that you seem to be from the north of the Underdark."

"I have a Bloodline Tracing Magic here that might be able to help you," Moxidu said.

Upon hearing information about his background and family, Saine's heart trembled slightly.

Seriously accepting the Crystal Ball containing the Bloodline Tracing Magic handed to him by his mentor, Saine couldn't help but feel excited at the thought of returning to the home of his childhood memories soon.

After handing the last Crystal Ball to Saine, Moxidu's situation seemed to worsen.

His previously strained mental state gradually became muddled, and he even started babbling incoherently.

"Cough cough!" Moxidu spat out a mouthful of black blood, the foul-smelling black blood splattering most of Moxidu robes.

Saine, however, did not mind and quickly stepped forward to help Moxidu up so that he would not fall.

At this moment, Moxidu should have only a last vestige of clarity left in his mind.

He glanced at Saine beside him with his yellowish eyes, and spoke in a hoarse tone...

He said, "Actually, you're not suited to be Black Magician."

"He's not ruthless enough, but he's not without principles either."

"Fortunately, you are still young, only an apprentice, and not wanted by the Holy Tower."

"Once you leave the Underdark, you can survive in the Wizard World as an ordinary magic apprentice."

"Actually, on the very first night I met you, I tried to use your body to barely sustain my life through the method of necromancy..."

It's unclear whether Moxidu was truly delirious or confused, but he even told Saine about this. →69🅂🄷🅄🅇.🄲🄾🄼

Faced with Moxidu ' words, Saine lowered his head and remained silent.

In fact, Saine had already learned from Owl Qi that his mentor Moxidu had tried to harm Saine that night.

However, in the days that followed, Saine remained normal and did not distance himself from or fear Moxidu any way.

The only change was that Saine concealed his gains in the Yellow Sand World.

He only briefly mentioned his experiences in the Yellow Sand World over the past two years to Moxidu, without discussing the thirty Level-2 Energy Crystal.

Thirty level -Level-2 Energy Crystal —this huge sum would tempt even a level-two or Level-3 Magician.

Saine is just a lowly magic apprentice. Before he has enough power, showing off his wealth will only put him in danger.

The legacy left to Saine within the Moxidu Space Bracelet will indeed allow him to smoothly advance to the level of Formal Magician in the future.

However, if we include those thirty Level-2 Energy Crystal, it's possible that Saine won't lack resources until he advances to level two.

This was a unique opportunity for Saine, and perhaps the reward for his more than two years of wasting time and struggling to survive in the Yellow Sand World.

As for the deal with the Sand Worm King Sand Worm King... all we can do now is wish him good luck.

After all, Saine did manage to contact the Holy Tower Magician, but the outcome might not have been good.

Moxidu was unaware that Saine was also hiding something from him.

However, as his time was drawing near, after entrusting everything to Saine, Saine suddenly grabbed Saine's shoulder and made one last request.

Yes, it's a request, not a demand.

"I come from Thousand Leaf Coral Island in the central part of the Western Islands."

"If you have the chance in the future, take my ashes back and scatter them in Gezes City on Thousand Leaf Coral Island."

"Black Magician is not suitable for you. In fact, even I am not a qualified Black Magician, which is why I rashly trusted others."

"Remember, you can only travel to the Western Islands if you reach the level of Formal Magician or above."

"The Wizard World is too vast for an apprentice like you to traverse."

"Even the Black Domain of the Western Islands is definitely not a place that a magic apprentice can venture into."

"Do your best, and if you can do it, then do it. If you can't, scatter my ashes in the Endless South Sea; that will be my final resting place," Moxidu said, closing his eyes.

After saying this, Moxidu never opened his eyes again.

After a long while, feeling his mentor's body gradually grow cold, Saine couldn't help but bring his trembling fingers close to Moxidu' nose.

Not only did his breathing stop, but his heart also stopped beating.

Looking at Moxidu, who looked old and was hunched over.

Saine knelt before him and kowtowed several times.

When disposing of the mentor's body, it was Saine who did it all by himself.

Owl Qi simply watched from the sidelines, Saine didn't let it interfere.

"Gugu, your mentor is right."

"He doesn't seem like Black Magician, and you don't seem like a Black Wizard Apprentice apprentice either. What a strange master and apprentice pair," Owl Qi, standing on a boulder and looking at Saine in front of the fire.

"That night, if the mentor had really made a move, could you have stopped him?" As he watched Moxidu's body gradually being consumed by flames, Saine asked calmly.

"Well, it's hard to say. After all, your mentor is a Formal Black Wizard, and he should have other Magic Conductor at his disposal."

"If the other party forces their way in, I estimate there's only a 30-40% chance I can stop them for you," Owl Qi replied.

Owl Qi's answer made Saine sigh deeply.

He didn't know why he was sighing.

In short, the death of his mentor Moxidu left Saine feeling extremely depressed and distressed.

"He is my mentor, and always will be!" Saine said, staring blankly at the flickering flames in front of him.
