Wizard of science

As Mas transmitted the signal to the sea behind the big ship, there was soon movement in the distance.

A faint orange light appeared, approaching quickly.

Soon, dense orange light spots arrived near the big ship.

Looking at it, it turned out to be huge octopuses floating on the water, with eyes the size of washbasins, emitting orange light.

There are about twenty octopuses. Each octopus has a black metal structure inlaid on its head, which penetrates deeply into the flesh of the octopus, like a fixed tray or hat.

At this time, on the octopus's "hat" stood wizard apprentices wearing jet black robes, looking at the Conch with sharp and vicious eyes.

Arriving near the ship, the octopus quickly extended its tentacles and grabbed the edge of the deck without seeing how the wizard apprentice could control it. It climbed to the deck with the wizard apprentice above its head.

One of the male wizard apprentices with strange eyes sat on top of the octopus, looking down at Mas who was delivering the signal, and asked aloud: "How is the situation?"

"It's just as planned, Senior Raymond!"

"Very good." The wizard apprentice known as Raymond nodded with satisfaction and said nothing to Maas, "Lead the way, solve the remaining troubles, ensure that our Shadow Academy can control the entire ship, and then... greet Master Skeleton."

"Understood, follow me!" Mas nodded excitedly and rushed to the side.

Raymond waved his hand, and the octopus beneath him and the octopuses beneath the rest of the people on the deck quickly crawled to follow.

Li He hid in the corner and watched all this. He could clearly feel the mood of the environment changing from the calm just now. He understood in his heart: It seemed that this was a sneak attack by the Shadow Academy.

He had known about the conflict between the Shadow Academy and the White Fang Tower for a long time - he had gotten this information from the other party's diary after killing Hale, the apprentice of the Shadow Academy, when he was in the Kingdom of Fornalanza.

Afterwards, I boarded the ship and heard the story of the Demonic Heart Wizard - the Academy of Shadows is an organization of black wizards, and the White Fang Tower is an organization of white wizards. They have completely different styles of conduct and creeds, and they are relatively close to each other. They often compete and fight. Even using various means to weaken the opponent - even more convinced of this.

When Hale released the spirit killer in Fornalanza, he did not hesitate to create a panic about lunatic disease, but he also wanted to kill potential wizard apprentice seeds and reduce the number of students accepted by the White Fang Tower. This was also proof.

Now, it is obvious that the Shadow Academy feels that releasing the spirit killer is not enough, and simply came to seize the Conch in the White Fang Tower.

It's a bit interesting... Li He sighed in his heart... It seems that the battles between the two sides are everywhere. Even the new students have become targets.

But he did nothing to stop it.

On the one hand, there are too many opponents, so it is dangerous to attack rashly.

On the other hand, he has no sense of belonging to the White Fang Tower. After all, he has not officially joined the White Fang Tower yet. Coupled with the performance of the Demonic Heart Wizard, he already has a low impression of the White Fang Tower. Just disappeared.

In his opinion, the White Fang Tower is just a bridge for him to understand the real wizarding world, and a springboard to help him increase his learning speed and accelerate research. Considering that the White Fang Tower does not have too advanced knowledge and is still far away from the setting location of the Blood Countess, if there is a chance, he would not mind changing to another wizard organization to enroll in.

Of course, he also had a bad impression of Shadow Academy. After all, the shadow academy wizard apprentices he met before, whether it was Hale or Frank, appeared as opponents and brought him big or small trouble.

For him, neither White Fang Tower nor Shadow Academy seemed to be a good choice.

But apart from that, he wanted to go to other wizard organizations, but he had no channels and no idea of ​​the location.

After thinking for a moment, Li He looked at the Shadow Academy wizard apprentices who were launching an attack, and decided to wait and see first.

He stayed where he was and continued to observe, watching the Shadow Academy wizard apprentices riding giant squids pass by him one after another. However, when a red-nosed male wizard apprentice passed by, an accident occurred.

The male wizard apprentice with a red nose suddenly sniffed hard as he passed by Li He, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Senior Raymond, there's a situation!"

"What?!" Raymond from the front came over quickly and asked urgently, "What's wrong, hound?"

"Senior, you know that under the guidance of Wizard Os, I modified my nose and can smell many scents far beyond those of normal people, even far beyond those of wizard apprentices."

"so?"

"I smell something weird."

"What is the taste?"

"I smell it..." The voice of the wizard apprentice, who was called the hound, gradually dropped to the point where it was almost inaudible. The next moment, he roared: "Senior Raymond, there is an ambush there!"

As he spoke, the hound waved his hand suddenly, and a wind blade struck towards Li He's position.

Discovered?

Li He raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that he would be discovered by an ordinary wizard apprentice despite being well hidden. From what the other party said, it seemed that he had discovered his scent.

This is indeed a magical world. If there are any loopholes, there may be danger.

Although he can now restrain energy fluctuations and hide his aura, he really doesn't pay attention to the smell. It seems that he will continue to improve in the future.

After being discovered, Li He didn't panic at all. He waved his hand while thinking of many ways to hide the smell.

"brush!"

A wind blade more than half a meter long flew out, directly crushing the opponent's flying wind blade.

And this also completely exposed his figure.

The shadow academy wizard apprentice who boarded the ship and prepared for a sneak attack was already very nervous. When he saw Li He appear, he quickly counterattacked without hesitation, and many spells flew towards Li He.

Wind blade, fireball, ice cone, acid...

Seeing this scene, Li He did not hesitate, stepped back, jumped off the deck, fell straight into the sea, and disappeared from everyone's sight, making all attacks in vain.

As mentioned before, Li He doesn't have much sense of belonging or affection for the White Fang Tower. Now when he encounters the sneak attack from the Shadow Academy, he has no consciousness to try his best to resist it. This is not his responsibility - there are people on the ship. There are formal wizards and wizard apprentices from the White Fang Tower, and they are the ones responsible for protecting the ship.

So, Li He retreated decisively when he saw that he was under fire.

Li He withdrew so completely that Raymond, the leader of the Shadow Academy, couldn't help but be stunned, but he didn't waste any more time and said quickly: "The other party has someone else hiding on the deck. Our actions are probably exposed. Speed ​​up the action immediately." .Team 1 and 2, immediately go to the bottom and control the driving of the ship. The remaining teams and I will resolve the obstacles."

"yes!"

Everyone responded, and a large number of people followed Raymond and rushed towards the room built on the deck of the White Fang Tower wizard apprentice. With the assistance of the giant octopus, they launched an attack.

A small group of people quickly entered the lower entrance of the deck and continued downward to one of the restricted areas on the Conch - the bottom cabin operation room.

The scene became chaotic.

In the chaos, no one noticed that Li He left and returned.

He hid the energy fluctuations, restrained his breath, and wrapped his body with a layer of water film to control the leakage of the smell. He followed the first and second teams of the Shadow Academy and entered the lower cabin.

Li He had always been curious about what was in the bottom compartment and what principles were used to drive and operate the entire ship.

But considering the evil wizard on the ship, I didn't rush in to investigate before.

Now that he was attacked by the Shadow Academy, he would not let go of this good opportunity.

"boom!"

The first and second teams from Shadow Academy entered the bottom cabin and used magic to force open the door of the operation room. Li He successfully saw the situation in the operation room.
