Dark Raven had the talent to parasitize entities weaker than its spiritual force and peer into their memories.
Many mid-level and high-level demons possessed this terrifying talent, among them the infamous Mind Flayers!
Because of this, demons were formidable opponents. They often relied on powerful disguises, concealing themselves among humans. If they didn’t use demonic aura, it might be impossible to detect them. “Old John” swiftly flew towards the Black Pearl Wizard Market.
They arrived at the entrance of the array.
“Lord John, you’ve been out for quite a while this time,” the second-circle wizard guarding the entrance said with a smile.
“Don’t mention it; being a pharmacist is too challenging. Can’t find any materials, sigh,” Old John sighed.
“Yeah, more and more wizards, but resources are becoming scarcer. I guess after this internal war ends, we’ll have to start preparing to search for and open up new resource planes again,” the guard remarked.
Old John presented his Identity Token, easily deceiving the grand array. Dark Raven could effortlessly conceal its demonic aura; it was an innate ability of its race.
Navigating through the pristine city, feeling the vibrant human auras, Dark Raven returned to Old John’s wizard tower and said excitedly,
“Let’s begin… Dance of the Raven Flock!”
Behind Dark Raven, feathers flew out, transforming into black shadows. These shadows entered the earth like black swimming fish, with Old John’s wizard tower at the center, spreading out in all directions.
Inside the wizard tower, in the laboratory, Levi, clad in his experimental robe, stood before a plethora of experimental apparatuses. In his hand was a cup containing a transparent potion.
“The 8th experiment, another failure, no purification effect at all…” Levi sighed in frustration as he set the potion down, leaving the laboratory.
“When in doubt, gain experience.”
Researching the Purification Elixir wasn’t something that could be completed in a day or two.
This was the crystallization of the Bug Luminist’s wisdom, and each material had its own peculiarities.
Finding alternative materials proved to be an exceedingly difficult task.
But he wouldn’t give up. Levi refused to believe that a Purification Elixir could best him.
Levi gathered various alchemical materials available in the nearby wizard market.
If one attempt failed, he would conduct a hundred, a thousand experiments, confident he would find a solution.
Levi stepped outside the tower, stretching lazily. Around his wizard tower, he had planted some medicinal herbs—merely for show, as they were inexpensive.
A frost-white giant wolf appeared by Levi’s side, gently nuzzling against him with its head.
This giant wolf was none other than Algerta.
Just yesterday, this white wolf girl seemed to undergo an unexpected change during her breakthrough to legendary. It appeared to be a direct atavism, resembling a miniature version of the legendary Silver Frost Wolf.
This was quite different from Levi’s legendary experience.
Typically, legendary beings only gave birth to a legendary organ, and it shouldn’t result in a direct atavism.
When Levi tested Algerta’s bloodline again after a short while, he made a startling discovery—her Silver Frost Wolf bloodline had significantly surged once more.
Levi speculated that this might be some extremely unique atavism.
After a brief moment, the giant wolf transformed back into the white wolf girl.
“Transforming into a giant wolf is really cool,” Algerta happily exclaimed.
“Don’t get too proud; keep working hard. This is just the beginning,” Levi advised.
The other three members of the fur clan were also top-notch grand knights. However, they still had a considerable way to go before breaking through to legendary knights.
Even for the fur clan with remarkable talents, the threshold of becoming a legendary knight remained a barrier for the majority.
Algerta, however, was quite exceptional. Levi suspected that this young girl might have a connection with the White Wolf God worshipped by the white wolf clan, the Silver Frost Wolf.
“Algerta, keep an eye on the house. I’m heading to the auction,” Levi said, patting the head of the white wolf girl.
“Yes, Master. Go ahead and don’t worry.”
Levi quickly made his way to the Black Pearl Auction House.
The Black Pearl Auction House held a large-scale auction event every year, where many valuable items could potentially become available.
Levi was currently in need of wizard knowledge and materials, so he wanted to try his luck. If he could find some Soul Artifact fragments among the leftovers, it would be even better.
In front of a white circular building resembling a colosseum, a circle of wizards gathered. These wizards were there to participate in the auction, mostly starting as official wizards. Apprentices had no qualifications for such prestigious auctions.
Among them were second-circle, third-circle, and even fourth-circle wizards.
“Have you heard? In the past week, nearly twenty official wizards died in the market. It seems like there’s a demon involved.’
“Is that true? I haven’t heard any news.”
“Well, I’m planning to temporarily leave this Black Pearl Market. I heard the
Thunder Dragon Family is recruiting official wizards with excellent benefits. I’m thinking of going for an interview.”
“In my opinion, the wizard world has long become a troubled place. It’s the same everywhere you go.”
Wizards stood around, casually discussing some unverified gossip.
Levi frowned upon hearing this. He had been busy with his research on the Purification Elixir and hadn’t paid much attention to the market’s affairs..
