Chapter 0426 Change

The emergence of the Flame Throne has obviously greatly changed the development trend of this Black Forest.

The residents of Songta Town, 300 miles away, felt it the most.

Once upon a time, as a small town on the edge of a human settlement, they had always lived under the shadow of the rampant monsters. Whenever a large-scale beast tide broke out in the Black Forest, they could only desperately seek help from Baldan City, which was closest to the town, because there was a wizard tower there.

And the wizard families who have some interests in Songta Town will also send family wizards and apprentices in time to help the residents of the town resist the impact of the beast tide. But this kind of help is limited after all. Once the danger faced by the town exceeds expectations, these foreign wizards and apprentices will never coexist with the town.

So from the beginning of its establishment to now, Songta Town has experienced two tragedies of being broken by migrating beasts. And after each tragedy, a new batch of immigrants will be transferred here by the wizards.

So this is a terrible place that makes people love and hate!

But now, with the appearance of a mysterious wizard tower in the Black Forest, this area of ​​the forest suddenly became unprecedentedly peaceful and cold.

The monsters that used to ravage the forest have disappeared, and even the large jungle beasts and fierce birds have also decreased sharply. Many mercenary adventure teams have bravely entered the Black Forest for nearly two or three hundred miles, but have not found any traces of the monsters.

Some known monster nests have been abandoned, and places that were once regarded as Jedi and dead places have become safe places to come and go freely. These mercenaries who make a living by adventure began to explore the crypts and caves one by one, looking for the abandoned nests of monsters everywhere.

For a time, the mercenaries in Songta Town became unprecedentedly active, and every time they ventured out, they could return with a full load and bring back huge gains. And the wizard apprentices with simple waist bags have also become popular. With their presence in the team, they can bring back more and bigger spoils every time they explore abandoned monster nests.

At first, they didn't know how all this happened. However, as some mercenary teams extended their footprints to the location where the Sick Wood Forest used to be, they had the honor to visit the apprentices of the Wu Tower who were maintaining the order of the forest there. They just learned that a "great" Wu Tower had been erected under the Sick Wood Forest.

It was no longer called the Sick Wood Forest, but the Flame Cave that everyone talked about. As for the depths of the Flame Cave, that is where the "great" Flame Throne Wu Tower is located!

As soon as this news was passed back to Songta Town, it immediately caused a great sensation.

Not only did the residents of the town become ecstatic, but even the wizard apprentices who were undergoing trials near the town seemed extremely excited.

Out of curiosity about this mysterious Wu Tower, several apprentices stationed here by wizard families hurried to the Flame Cave and then visited the Flame Throne.

According to the general rules of the Wizard Continent, they were also fortunate to stay in the Wu Tower for a night and contact the apprentices in the Wu Tower. Thus, they learned that this Flame Throne belonged to the private Wu Tower of Grimm Wizard of the Sarubo Family.

Sarubo Family? I seem to have heard of it before. It is a humble middle-class family in the middle of the continent.

Wizard Grimm? Sorry, this name seems very unfamiliar!

Grimm's title of Fire Demon is actually only famous in a few areas around Fednan City. A little further away, many wizard families in many areas have never even heard of it.

However, the speed of spreading news in the wizard world is still amazing!

When these apprentices passed the news they had inquired back to their families, the rumors about this Fire Demon soon became known to everyone.

A newly promoted wizard fought against a strong enemy and killed a veteran wizard in a one-on-two situation... Later, in a family conflict, he killed an elite blood wizard...

Once these rumors were dug up, they immediately attracted the interest and attention of many wizard families.

This... This is a powerful wizard rising up!

So, more wizard apprentices flocked into Songta Town, and then turned to the mysterious wizard tower-the Flame Throne.

According to the general rules of the wizard continent, except for the wizard towers in very few areas that are completely closed, most wizard towers actually adhere to the principle of being open to the public. Each wizard tower will open a specific area for the wizards and apprentices to take a short rest and replenish supplies.

And this is also one of the ways for the wizard tower to earn magic crystals!

Of course, only wizards and apprentices can enter the tower to rest and replenish supplies. Ordinary adventurers and mercenaries who want to buy enchanted items can only transfer through familiar apprentices. Therefore, the prosperity of the wizard tower has also led to a circle of apprentices in disguise, allowing these marginal people to form an outer market around the wizard tower.

…………

Bilis is a wandering wizard apprentice.

Due to his poor talent, he is 35 years old, but he is still only a junior apprentice. And he has only two pitiful witchcrafts, detection and weak light.

The former is not a strange witchcraft of divination, but a simple witchcraft to check whether food is poisonous and what effect a certain item has. As for the latter, it will create a dim light area around the caster, reducing the enemy's vision range.

Yes, these two witchcrafts are neither offensive witchcraft nor defensive witchcraft, but... a kind of auxiliary low-level witchcraft.

It is for this reason that Bilis's family is just an ordinary noble family, and they obviously cannot stand him continuing to consume the family's resources without being able to provide any return to the family. Therefore, three years ago, the family cut off his resource supply and financial support, and Bilis could only regretfully leave the witch tower where he had lived and studied for 27 years and became a wandering wizard apprentice.

Of course, if he is willing to return to the family, he still has the opportunity to become a chamber of commerce leader or a local noble, but Bilis, who has made up his mind to devote himself to the wizard career, still dreams of becoming a great wizard one day.

Therefore, he would rather wander and experience in various regions than return to the family to be a puppet who follows the rules.

When he accidentally traveled to the Elovis area, he happened to hear that a new wizard tower had emerged in Songta Town. With the simple idea that the other party might recruit some foreign apprentices, Bilis immediately changed his itinerary and went straight to the legendary Flame Throne.

The former Songta town has now become very lively. Adventurers and mercenaries with bows and swords can be seen everywhere. Seeing the apprentice robe on Bilis, they excitedly surrounded him and wanted to recruit him into the team.

At this time, in Songta Town, even the most useless wizard apprentice, as long as he has a wizard waist bag, can attract countless teams to recruit him. After all, the opening and storage of the wizard waist bag requires a certain amount of mental power, which ordinary warriors cannot use at all. Only apprentices who have mastered certain elemental powers can do it.

Therefore, if the expedition team wants to bring back more spoils, wizard apprentices must be recruited.

Unfortunately, Bilis had other plans in mind, so he rejected all invitations to join the team without hesitation. After hiring a familiar guide in the local area, Bilis also successfully passed through the dense forest of 300 miles and came to the entrance of the legendary flame cave.

In fact, before approaching the pile of rocks where the flame cave is located, Bilis was shocked by the bustle and noise here.

When there were still 10 to 20 miles to the end, Bilis met many small teams heading to the Fire Cave. Their teams were large or small, with more than a dozen people in the hunting team and less than three or four people in the exploration team. And a team like Bilis, with only him and the guide, was simply unique.

The further he went, the more mercenary teams Bilis met. They either carried huge prey on their shoulders or carried huge blood-stained backpacks, and strode happily through the dense and difficult Black Forest.

After many teams met, they would shout and greet loudly, and ask from time to time, "How is the harvest today?" "Where is another secret nest found?"... and other strange questions.

When they walked through the jungle together and came to a huge clearing in the forest, Bilis was completely shocked by what he saw and heard.

This is the Black Forest!

This is a dangerous area nearly 300 miles deep in the Black Forest!

But in the huge clearing in the forest in front of Bilis, rows of simple wooden houses and tents were built crookedly. There were three or four hundred mercenary adventurers in different costumes walking around in this temporary camp. Stalls for buying live animals and wild animal furs could be seen everywhere, and guys in apprentice robes bargained with mercenaries everywhere...

This place... had become a temporary camp, a bridgehead and material supply site for mercenary adventurers to explore the surrounding areas. The camp managers were wizard apprentices who came out of the Flame Throne.

In a corner of the camp, a dozen large jungle beasts were kept in a huge wooden cage made of thick logs, including fierce beasts such as armored rhinoceros, razor boars and violent apes.

Under Bilis's gaze, many mercenaries were carrying tied-up beasts and rushing there. They handed them over to a wizard apprentice in a green robe who was managing the animal pen, and then received heavy small cloth bags from him.

"Sir, we have arrived at the Fire Cave you mentioned!" The guide who led the way was an honest villager, looking at Bilis with hope.

Bilis took out a small cloth bag from his waist bag and threw it to the other party.

50 gold coins!

If it were in the past, even if Bilis took out more gold coins or even magic crystals, it would be impossible to let these guys who had no combat ability go deep into the Black Forest. But now with the appearance of the Fire Throne Wizard Tower, this Black Forest has become a very safe back garden, allowing most adventurers to walk, explore and hunt in it safely.

After sending the guide away, Bilis mustered up his courage and walked quickly towards the huge cave in the center of the camp. Even at a distance of 200 to 300 meters, Bilis could feel the strong breath of fire element coming towards him.
