The most powerful wizard in the magic world
Chapter 229: Deep in the Quagmire
He looked around, and those familiar faces seemed so strange at this moment. The sunlight outside the window was blocked by dark clouds, and the air was filled with tension. He took a deep breath, cast his eyes on Ligula, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by her voice.
"I can't stand it any longer, Gulu." Ligula's voice was calm and firm, with a sense of urgency in her words. Her eyes were shining with anger, and she looked directly at Gulu, as if she was fearless. "Sly's victory is too abominable. Not only did he ruin my reputation, he also put my family in a desperate situation!"
Guru frowned slightly, knowing the hatred in Ligula's heart. He gently advised: "Revenge is dangerous, Ligula. You have to think clearly, do you really want to do this? This kind of hatred may make you pay a greater price."
"I don't have time to look back." Ligula gritted her teeth, raised her chin, and her eyes were as firm as a knife. "I just want to destroy Mankro Academy and let everyone know that I am not a victim to be manipulated by others!"
"Destroy the academy?" Gulu's heart sank, and alarm bells rang in his heart. "Do you know what consequences this will cause? Not only to the academy, but also to those innocent people?"
"Innocent?" Ligula's voice was almost a roar, "They are all Sly's accomplices. They helped him climb to the pinnacle of power! I won't let this happen again! I will never allow it!"
Guru sighed and looked at her seriously: "I understand your anger, but you have to understand that hatred can only bring you more pain. You know, Sly is not useless. Everything he did was for the beliefs he believed in."
"So, tolerating him is my excuse?" Ligula's expression became even colder. "The belief he believes in should not exist in this world! He and Mancro Academy must pay the price for this!"
Gulu was silent for a while, thinking about Ligula's determination. "If you insist on doing it, then I will stand by your side." He spoke slowly, his eyes firm. "But I need you to tell me the specific plan, we must be prepared."
A glimmer of joy flashed across Ligula's eyes, but was soon overwhelmed by anxiety. "I plan to start from the inside, collect their secrets, and expose Sly's dark side. Their weaknesses will be the source of my strength."
"How do you plan to collect these secrets? The academy's defense measures are quite strict." Guru continued to ask. He knew that once Ligula made a decision, she would ignore the consequences.
"I know a few people who are very familiar with the internal situation of the academy, including some people who are not loyal to Sly. I just need their cooperation." Ligula raised her head slightly, with a gleam in her eyes, "I will meet in the next few days and find the right time."
Guru nodded, but his heart was filled with worry. "Then I can help you gather more resources and information. Because success is not just based on anger and hatred."
Ligula nodded firmly: "Thank you, Guru. But I don't want you to take risks. I know this road is very dangerous. It concerns my own destiny."
"We are all on the same path, Ligula." Gulu's tone softened. He could not watch her walk into the abyss. "No matter what happens in the future, I will stay by your side, help you analyze the situation, and guard against various risks."
"I have always hoped to have you by my side in this struggle." Ligula's expression gradually softened. Although she was reluctant, she felt relieved, as if she saw a faint light in the darkness.
"I'm honored to share a burden with you." Gulu smiled, and the tension in his heart seemed to ease. He reached out and patted Ligula on the shoulder, "But you have to remember that our goal is not only revenge, but also the pursuit of the truth."
At this time, under the cloudy sky, the two had already shouldered a heavy task. There seemed to be the sound of wind or conversation coming from outside the window, and the indifferent atmosphere seemed to warn them invisibly. Guru suddenly noticed that everything around him was more gloomy than before, as if something bad was about to happen.
"We have to speed up." Ligula's eyes flashed, as if she sensed something. "Contact those I can trust immediately. I think they may be able to help us."
"Okay." Guru nodded, "I will investigate the movements of the academy, especially Sly's recent whereabouts."
"But before that, we have to make sure we won't be discovered." Ligula whispered, and stood up and looked around. Just as she finished speaking, she heard a rustling sound, and Gulu and Ligula immediately became alert and adjusted the tense atmosphere.
"Who's there?" Gulu's voice was low and cold, and his hand was quietly raised, ready to deal with possible threats.
A figure walked out from the shadows. It was Ligula's friend, Mengyao. Her face was pale, and there was a hint of fear in her eyes. "I'm sorry, I heard your conversation."
Ligula frowned: "Mengyao, what are you doing here?"
"I came to look for you, hoping to know your recent movements." Meng Yao said softly, looking a little uneasy. "I'm worried about Sly's reaction. Will he take any measures against you?"
"I have my own plan." Ligula's tone became a little tougher. "I will destroy Mankro Academy and restore my order. This situation cannot continue."
"Destroy the academy?" Meng Yao shuddered. "This... is too risky, Ligula!"
Guru also frowned: "Mengyao, listen to what she means? This is not something you should interfere with."
"No, this is about her own decision." Meng Yao looked unwilling, with a hint of powerlessness in her anger. "She lost herself in the flames of revenge, she must not act on her own!"
Ligula glared at Mengyao angrily: "You don't understand my pain, and you don't know what I have lost. I can't be bullied like before!"
"I know revenge is painful, but destroying everything for revenge is not a long-term solution." Meng Yao's eyes were full of determination, and her tone was full of concern. "Ligula, have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this? Hurting others will also make you fall into the quagmire."
