The Wizard Apprentice were shocked by Leo's power, but only the three First-Level Wizard could vaguely sense just how powerful Leo.
Tuoluoyin's strength was no different from theirs, with attack power around 2000 points. However, it was clear that when Tuoluoyin was attacked fatally, the magical artifacts on his body activated immediately, and several protective shields appeared around him.
If facing an opponent of equal strength, Tuoluoyin could hold his own against three First-Level Wizard for a short time thanks to his protective shield.
As a result, under Leo's single finger, the protective shield on his body was like a piece of waste paper, providing no defense whatsoever, and was instantly blasted into pieces along with his body.
Amidst the blood and foam scattered on the ground lay the system a wizard had painstakingly built and mastered over hundreds of years.
But in Leo's hands, this was just a puppet with no ability to fight back. With just a little force, Leo could easily crush it.
This means that Leo could crush them at any time, as easily as crushing a few ants.
The fundamental difference constantly reveals the immense, insurmountable gap between them and Leo!
As expected of a recipient of three Wizard Medals, even a glimpse of his attack was enough to overwhelm them. It's truly unimaginable how powerful Leo's full-force strike would be!
"Alright, prepare a room for me, then you can go do whatever you need to do. I'll take action whenever any wizards from the Black Skull Academy enter Tiyama City."
Leo dispelled the shield that had been blocking the blood in front of him. The unease he felt after killing someone brought him some relief. He gestured for Nigel to lead the way, as he wanted to find a room to rest and study.
Today's events not only had a huge impact on the other wizards, but also unsettled Leo. He needed to find a quiet place to clear his mind and make a decision.
Nigel quickly prepared the largest room for Leo, intending to invite Leo to a banquet to deepen their relationship, but Yaoyao stopped him.
"Little guy, I know what you're trying to do, but Leo doesn't like these things. If you can make me happy, maybe I'll teach you a little. Although I can't make you a Great Wizard, advancing to First-Level Wizard will be a piece of cake."
"You should know that I am Leo's soulmate. I know everything he knows, and I can teach you, a mere Wizard Apprentice, with ease."
Yaoyao saw through Nigel's plan immediately. As Leo's soulmate, he had an obligation to help Leo deal with these trivial matters that were taking up Leo's time. Let this poor guy handle these trivial matters.
But why do I have this urge to burst out laughing with my hands on my hips?
Nigel glanced at the Level 3 Benji, who stood guard at Leo's door and kept everyone at arm's length, then looked at Yaoyao, who couldn't suppress her smile.
He greeted Yaoyao with a respectful and charming smile, saying, "Would Lady Yaoyao be so kind as to attend the banquet tonight? I will prepare a sumptuous dinner for you, ensuring you have a wonderful evening."
"Slurp"
Yaoyao couldn't help but slurp a big mouthful of saliva, and said to Nigel, "Then you'd better prepare several portions, I have a big appetite."
"I will definitely make Lady Yaoyao satisfied."
Nigel showed no aversion to Leo's indifference; it would have been strange if Leo had been particularly enthusiastic towards him.
The gap between them meant that Leo wouldn't even notice him. Protecting him, in addition to protecting Tiyama City, was already Leo's greatest favor.
If you're not satisfied and want to get something more from Leo, there's a high chance you'll offend Leo.
Think of Tuoluoyin, who was instantly killed in the hall just now. He was a well-established Official Wizard.
As a result, he was killed without warning by Leo.
If he displeases Leo, his fate will be no better than Tuoluoyin's.
However, there are other ways to achieve your goal.
Nigel smiled as he looked at Yaoyao, who was already looking forward to the banquet that evening.
Nigel was confident that as long as there was an opportunity to communicate and converse, he could gain the trust of Wizard Leo and get what he wanted.
Leo naturally sensed everything that happened outside, but he had no intention of stopping or mocking Nigel.
When someone works hard, what they do deserves praise.
Leo was even considering that if Nigel could really move him, offering a little help to help him advance a level wouldn't be out of the question.
But Leo isn't in the mood for that right now.
He was still thinking about his relationship with Abigail. He couldn't understand it; he wanted to kill her, but he also didn't want to.
This conflicted feeling, commonly known as a lack of clarity in one's thoughts, caused Leo to suffer inner torment and anguish.
The clear sky turned dark, then black.
It got dark.
Loud laughter and cheers echoed from the main hall of the city lord's mansion. Leo's arrival was like a powerful shot in the arm for everyone, sweeping away all the gloom that had been hanging over Tiyama City from the shadow of death.
No one dared to suggest abandoning the mission and returning to the academy anymore. They were now brimming with confidence in the mission, as if Leo's presence guaranteed their success.
Throughout the banquet, Yaoyao's voice was the loudest, as if afraid others wouldn't know she was Leo's soulmate, recounting her glorious experiences over and over again.
For example, with Yaoyao's help, Leo successfully killed some enemy and, with Yaoyao's help, successfully passed the First-Level Wizard Elimination Tournament.
In short, in Yaoyao's words, 70% of Leo's achievements today are thanks to Yaoyao.
With Lord Yaoyao here, as long as it's not Stigmata Wizard, no matter how many come, they'll all die.
The wizards were well aware that there was more hype than water in this scheme, but in order to please Yaoyao, their flattery only made Yaoyao more and more infatuated.
All right,
Leo gained a new understanding of Yaoyao's boasting; there was no boast he couldn't keep up with, and with the Stigmata not appearing, he was the strongest.
Aren't you afraid the wind will blow him away?!
"Lord Leo, Nigel has sent over a lot of exquisite food. Would you like some?"
Benji was outside the door, hadn't heard Leo's voice for Heavenly Capital, and could roughly guess why Leo was so depressed and negative.
He had been with Leo since before Leo became Wizard Apprentice, so he naturally knew the significance of Abigail in Leo's life.
In fact, Leo's initial goal in surviving was to kill Abigail.
You can eat it all.
Leo responded to Benji in a low voice, then continued to ponder the question. He found that his emotions were sometimes difficult to control, making him seem nothing like a calm, collected, and rational Elemental Wizard.
It was well past midnight, and the banquet in the city lord's mansion had long since ended.
Benji's voice once again pulled Leo from his reverie, "Lord Leo, Abigail has arrived. She says she has something to discuss with you."
"Let him in."
Leo hasn't figured out how to deal with Abigail yet. He has reasons for both killing her and not killing her, and these are reasons that neither side can convince the other.
Benji opened the door, and Abigail walked in.
Abigail bowed, then took a crystal ball from her magic ring and presented it to Leo with both hands. "Master Leo, I know that what I have done to you is unforgivable. If you wish to kill me, I have nothing more to say."
"If you think you can spare my life, then please accept my apology. This is the most important knowledge in my Wizard System —all the knowledge about that altar that once connected to the Jeft World."
"My abilities are limited and I am not yet able to perfect this part of the knowledge. If Master Leo would be willing to accept it, I believe this knowledge would be more suitable for you than for me."
Leo looked at Abigail, who was bowing respectfully before him, and the crystal ball she held up in her hands. After a long silence, he finally said, "Is this your money to buy my life?"
"I suppose so. If the master doesn't want to kill me, consider this knowledge as proof of our reconciliation."
Leo understood Abigail's meaning: if Leo accepted the apology, he shouldn't cause Abigail any more trouble.
Looking at Abigail's humble appearance, and the bitter expression on her face of resentment yet having no choice, she was deeply moved.
This is not the oppression of the strong, but the sorrow of the weak.
Weakness is the original sin. Even if Leo hadn't decided whether to kill him, he had to beg Leo for mercy first.
Putting yourself in her shoes, Abigail was once hailed as a genius wizard by Alice. If she were targeted by a Great Wizard like herself, her life would be in her own hands, Heavenly Capital be on guard against retaliation.
Anyone would be devastated in that situation.
Either you die a quick death, or you solve the problem.
Abigail's current approach is to make this matter disappear completely, so it will no longer be a nightmare for her.
Leo couldn't comprehend the fear and despair Abigail felt when he appeared before Abigail with his current strength.
"Did you find us, or did you buy us from another wizard or merchant group?"
Before Leo could even take the crystal ball, he asked a question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time.
He woke up in the basement and had no idea what happened after the Earth shattered.
During the time between his coma and his appearance in the basement, Leo completely lost this part of his memory.
"I bought it from Green Cottage. As you know, the physical composition of you people overlaps with ours by more than 80%, and you're not banned in the Wizard World, so..." Abigail answered Leo's questions without reservation.
He's willing to risk his life for his most precious knowledge, so what else can't he say?
"Okay, I understand. I'll accept the things."
As Abigail waited anxiously, Leo reached out and threw the crystal ball from Abigail's Leo into the Shadow Space.
Seeing that Leo accepted her apology, Abigail felt relieved and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally resolving the problem that had been weighing on her mind.
