Defeated

"My name is Silver Eye... What a pity, I never imagined that I would have to personally kill such a promising young Wizard!"

The old Wizard sighed, and suddenly a silver light shone from his pupils.

In his eyes, Sulu seemed to see himself being constantly twisted, changed, and formed into a ring.

Although it was an illusion, his body actually began to freeze, as if even his blood had stopped flowing.

"Illusion?"

He had a sudden Inspiration, broke free quickly, and his figure flashed by.

Pfft!

Countless tiny silver needles emerged from around him and stuck in his original spot.

"Manipulating metal? Interesting!"

From the dense forest nearby, Sulu's figure emerged, long sword in hand, a playful expression on his face. "But it's not enough to deal with me!"

"Witchcraft - Thousand Needle Curse Kill!"

The Silver Eye Wizard chanted incantations rapidly, and the silver needles on the ground turned into a pool of liquid metal, quickly spreading towards Sulu's location.

Pfft!

One by one, silver needles as thick as a finger took shape and flew towards him.

"This level of strength... even a second-tier Bronze Knight might not be able to withstand it; only Silver Knight could emerge unscathed!"

Two pale yellow Thaumaturgy Card appeared in Sulu's hand—"Fireball!"

With a wave of his right hand, two clusters of orange flames appeared. One exploded amidst the needles, while the other shot towards the old man's horse at incredible speed.

"Oh no! Scatter!"

One-Eyed Aili immediately gave the order, "Protect the Wizard!"

But it was too late.

The next moment, a ball of fire exploded right in front of him.

Boom!

An astonishing heatwave and shockwave swept outwards, throwing Aili off his horse.

He struggled to his feet and saw that the old Wizard's mount was in pieces, and several knights around him had also fallen from their horses, their fates unknown.

Moreover, the terrifying explosion and the sound startled the horses, causing many to run wildly and completely disrupting their already scattered formation.

'Is this... the power of Wizard?'

As Aili watched this scene, she clenched her fists: 'As expected, they come from the devil; they shouldn't exist in this world...'

This is the natural hostility of a poor, miserable Warrior towards a rich, handsome mage!

Of course, one could also say that social class determines consciousness.

After all, among the humans in this world, only knights and Wizard possess extraordinary powers, and there are only a limited number of positions at the top, so those who want to rise to the top must fight for them!

Knights received strong support because they were relatively 'approachable'—in fact, close to the nobility.

At the same time, as members of the extraordinary class, the knights are also working hard to suppress the status of Wizard, and many vilifying rumors are spread from them.

After all, aside from Wizard, they were the only superhumans left!

"You... are not a novice Wizard!"

The Silver Eye Wizard was not injured in the explosion. A set of silver armor appeared on his body, flowing like mercury and radiating various lights.

At the same time, he looked at Sulu with a look of horror on his face.

The Wizard system in this world is very simple, starting from the beginner level, then moving to the intermediate and advanced levels, and finally reaching the legendary ' Wizard King '!

He originally thought Sulu was just a novice Wizard who used witchcraft in combination with his knightly profession to kill Andrews, the Bronze Knight.

But now it seems that the other party's skill in witchcraft has exceeded his expectations.

Why are there so many people in this world... courting death?

Sulu sighed and suddenly charged forward.

"Silver Binding!"

The Silver Eye Wizard shouted, and mercury flew out from his body, forming streaks that seemed like living ropes, binding Sulu.

But in the next instant, Sulu, who was bound, smiled and vanished in a phantom.

"Ah!"

Startled, the Silver Eye Wizard's brow split open, revealing a silver vertical pupil that scanned his surroundings.

He suddenly turned around and saw the real Sulu.

The other person was holding a dagger and rapidly approaching.

"Go!"

A silver cone appeared in the Silver Eye Wizard's hand and flew through the air.

But Sulu lightly touched the ground and swiftly changed direction in mid-air, dodging the flying spikes of the silver cones, and arrived in front of the Silver Eye Wizard, thrusting out the Demon Hunting Dagger.

Puff!

The Silver Eye old Wizard stared blankly at his shoulder.

There, the Mercury Armor that was supposed to protect against the knight's slashes was completely pierced, blood splattering everywhere, mixed with intense pain.

The Demon Hunting Dagger is already extremely sharp, and it also has the effect of ' Magic Breaking '!

He screamed and fell to the ground, his Mercury Armor now showing barbs, making him look like a hedgehog.

"Spirit Pressure!"

Sulu snorted coldly, and a powerful pressure descended. The Silver Eye old man felt as if his mental sea had been hit by a heavy hammer, and he immediately fainted with his eyes rolling back. The mercury armor around him automatically collapsed.

"A high-level... a high-level Wizard!"

Before plunging into darkness, a voice roared in the old man's mind, filled with unspeakable regret.

Snap!

A splash of clear water fell, and the Silver Eye Wizard awoke.

He looked up blankly and found himself in a forest. It was already dark, and he was tied to a tree trunk. One-eyed Aili was beside him.

Before them was a campfire, and the young Wizard from earlier in the day was studying a very familiar notebook, while three Wandering Knight were cooking food around them.

'So... I've already been defeated and taken prisoner!'

The Silver Eye Wizard smiled bitterly to himself, and after learning of Sulu's rank, he dared not make the slightest move.

The opponent is suspected to be a high-level Wizard, possessing a mysterious power even stronger than that of the Silver Knight!

Only the legendary Gold Knight could surpass him.

'How did such a master become a wanted criminal? The Grand Duke of Wolf Castle's actions this time were somewhat irrational...'

A feeling called regret kept rising in his mind.

"Oh no..."

The other three Wandering Knight seemed to be in a similar situation.

Laf, who was adding firewood to the fire, glanced at Sulu, who seemed completely absorbed in his books, and whispered to his two companions, "If those cavalrymen escape today, will we be wanted?"

"Even if they do, we're not afraid! They don't know our names anyway. We can just hide in the south and never come to the Northern Territory again..."

Ham was very confident about this, clearly aware of the unfortunate transportation and information transmission conditions of the era, which made cross-border pursuits difficult.

"That's the only way!" The honest-looking Yorn nodded. "Besides... I'm also very curious about that mysterious Wizard."

At this point, Sulu finally finished reading the witchcraft notes he had seized from Silver Eye and felt that he had benefited greatly from them.

The other party was, after all, a native, and one who was able to advance to a second-tier professional during the Dawn of Gods; some of their ideas and thoughts were quite interesting.

"You two are awake?"

Sulu glanced at Silver Eye and Aili, gesturing for Ham to untie Silver Eye.

"Daran School, Silver Eye Dom salutes you, esteemed High Wizard!"

Silver Eye didn't make any underhanded moves; instead, he bowed to Sulu very solemnly.
