Lord of Mysterious Wizard-Chapter 528 - 489 Wizard Sect

Watching the fragment floating within his eyes that indicated the "Fool’s Ship" in his hand had transitioned from having a master back to being masterless, Tang Qi felt a mix of amusement and resignation.

That half-god from the Exotic Realm, "Gafaro," is it timidity or decisiveness that best describes him?

Between the two, there was only their first clash, in which Tang Qi employed only the "Judgement," a special Molten Furnace Witchcraft that had been elevated to Fifth Rank, certainly possessing formidable lethal power. Ordinary Professional Level chaotic evil Biological creatures wouldn’t withstand a mere glance from Tang Qi.

But to kill a half-god from the Exotic Realm with a single Judgement was clearly impossible, especially with the barrier of the "Mysterious" between them.

Tang Qi speculated that a projection from the Master of the Crucible would likely cause significant damage to the opponent.

Following the Judgement, Tang Qi had prepared other means, with even Diana collecting her power.

Unfortunately, Gafaro did not give Tang Qi an opportunity to make things difficult. Sensing a threat, Gafaro immediately severed the connection, gifting the "Fool’s Ship," an item obviously endowed with Mysterious and exceptional powers, to Tang Qi.

"Is it really necessary? I’m just a ’feeble’ Professional Level male wizard, and you’re running away without even fighting?"

With the loss of the Fool’s Ship, the so-called Holy Guidance Sect was completely wiped out. The Evil God known as "Gafaro" would likely have to pay a much greater price than before to establish a new power on Origin Blue Star.

"Could it be that he was scared off by a powerful figure? That does seem plausible; the reputation of the Master of the Crucible within the Evil God Group is indeed..."

Tang Qi once again realized the importance of a strong backing. If it weren’t for the fearsome reputation of a Melter Wizard and the ability to draw hatred that came with it, he would have seriously considered not concealing his identity as a Melter Wizard.

Now, well, perhaps it’s better not to. I don’t want to be besieged by Evil God believers.

Observing the Fool’s Ship carefully in his hand and fiddling with it for a moment, no further accidents occurred nor discoveries were made, so Tang Qi temporarily put it away.

He had not yet decided on its use, but he knew that an artifact capable of sailing within the ’Mysterious’ was something that any Extraordinary Organization needed to protect carefully.

Putting away the Fool’s Ship, Tang Qi glanced at the three little guys still frolicking at the breakfast table, with special attention on the Night Beast and Willnas’s Little Fairy.

Both had been living in the "Lake Heart Island Secret Realm" for some time, and most Secret Realms are very suitable for the growth of Extraordinary Creatures.

This place has all sorts of environments in particular.

Both the Night Beast and the Elf had extremely remarkable heritages.

The former had almost integrated its "Shadow Magic" into every movement, and the latter stunned everyone with its magical Talent, with each of the "Ancient Fairy Magic" passed down in its blood boasting amazing power.

Tang Qi vaguely felt a threat from them.

If given the time to use their Big Move, that sense of threat would only increase.

As for Gluttony, which had been with Tang Qi for an even longer time, it hadn’t shown much "progress" besides the expansion of the internal space within its belly due to consuming an excessive amount of Molten Magic, it still only knew how to lick people with its large tongue.

However, it was essentially a "pocket-type Abnormality," its main function being to hold items.

"Having resolved Peggy’s issue, the Hannahs’ Secret Medicine formula has also entered the deduction phase, with Nicholas joining as a new combatant, the Night Beast and Little Fairy are growing rapidly, and in a while longer, Noah and the others should be able to stand on their own... The school seems to be gradually getting on the right track."

"The only bit of trouble is that connections established by the school in the past, including contacts with some overseas organizations, have been lost due to the Witches’ negligence. Perhaps this task could be assigned to McGraw after he returns."

"Ah, there are also three dormant Danger Sources. When I find the time, I’ll see if I can make use of Diana’s power to fully resolve them."

"Outside of school matters, I should shift my focus to my own advancement path. According to the information I’ve read before, a formal Melter Wizard can advance at a shockingly fast pace if they choose to—offering sacrifices to Evil Gods, gaining Merit, exchanging for witchcraft, and continuing the cycle... In not a long time, a powerful Molten Furnace Great Wizard will emerge."

"Unfortunately, that method doesn’t suit me. Aside from extinguishing my Self Furnace, openly sacrificing Evil Gods everywhere else is out of the question. After all, not even the people from the Bright Church are so brazen, and the Lord of Light commands a vast Divine Faction."

"Besides, I wouldn’t rely on someone else for my life and death, even if it’s a deity from the Order Camp. The Soul Splitting Spell can deceive the Furnace Projection; I just don’t know if it can..."

"It probably won’t work!"

As a doubt began to emerge in his mind, it was immediately dismissed by himself.

Among the witchcraft created by Ralph, the "Life Spell" and "Soul Splitting Spell" were the most unfathomable.

When he first became a formal Melter Wizard, Tang Qi had used the Soul Splitting Spell to escape being marked by destiny.

With this thought, Tang Qi subtly chose his next direction for advancement.

"Ralph Witchcraft—I need to elevate this new Wizard Sect to the Professional Level."

"Where to start? Well, for most Wizard Sects, the key lies in the Meditation Method, the source of Magic Power supply during spell casting. Just as Ralph’s Handbook lacks the Meditation Method, it’s probably why he couldn’t advance to being an official Wizard. Another reason is the absence of Spiritual Tide."

"Powerful spells like the Guardian Spell and the Flame Spell lost their inherent strength due to the missing Spiritual Tide. Even if Ralph sacrificed his Life force to cast these spells, they would end up looking more like brilliant Magic tricks."

"These Mysterious spells, even for a true genius, could not be conjured up out of thin air at home. To find or create a new Meditation Method, I may need to first find what inspired Ralph to create these spells, or what turned him into a Mad Wizard."

"Hmm, I should look for some reference books."

As various thoughts jumbled in his mind, Tang Qi stood up and made his way downstairs to the third floor.

Compared to Ralph, this loner, or other Wild Wizards, Tang Qi has a powerful backing to rely on—the dreadful foundation left by the Witches.

One of the principles of the Mysterious Side: Everything can be traded, but knowledge is the most precious.

Extraordinary Books containing numerous mysterious, ancient knowledges are the most popular goods on the Mysterious Side.

Although the "First Generation Melada" betrayed the entire Merada Witch Group, on the other hand, it was also because this "Ancestor" still lived in the witches’ bloodline; the Witch Group never ceased their legacy and obtained excellent development over that century.

A vast number of precious Extraordinary Books fell into the hands of the witches.

And now, they are at Tang Qi’s disposal to be perused.

For this purpose, he even moved into the "Library Tower," fully embodying his identity as a polymath; in fact, he indeed has become a scholar well-versed in a great deal of hidden knowledge.

When Tang Qi arrived at the first floor, a large amount of books were already floating behind him.

In his hands, he held an extremely thick tome.

Different from his initial visit to the Library Tower, this place was no longer occupied by just him.

Although most of the children, even though they are students of the "Witch School," are reluctant to read books.

Still, some students love reading.

They currently only have borrowing privileges for the "Basic Category Area," but those books involving all sorts of magic and the Mysterious Side are unimaginably attractive to them.

The appearance of Tang Qi, the "Principal," indeed caused some ripples.

Curious, respectful, admiring, and other gazes were cast towards him.

Fortunately, everyone knew the rules within the "Library Tower," and not a single student was noisy. After Tang Qi smiled and greeted them, tranquility was quickly restored.

Yet, some students, overcome by curiosity, couldn’t help but take several more glances at the book in Tang Qi’s hands.

The book cover was thick, and the title on it was exceptionally eye-catching: "A Compilation of Wizard Sect Founders."

Clearly, it was a book summarizing the founders of various Wizard Sects; the author, a Mysticologist, had verified the major sects and how they were created, with timelines starting directly from the "Age of Ignorance" to the very end of the "Dark Era."

The books floating behind him included titles such as: "Life and Death of the Vilisa Wizard," "The Germination and Origin of the Hermes Wizard Sect," "The Last Luwedo Wizard," "Red Robed Wizard Ancestor’s Autobiography," "The Mystery of the White Robed Wizard’s Resurrection"...

Each one seemed to contain content that was quite abstruse.

However, Tang Qi quickly immersed himself into it; he was now set on conquering a broad category.

Within the Extraordinary World, every kind of Profession exists.

But Wizards, starting from ancient times, have been a major category that cannot be ignored.

Some Mysticologists even believe that the first Transcendent might have been a "Wizard."

Of course, it could also be another name, like "Prophet."

Tang Qi’s perusal of these books, aside from drastically increasing his progress as a "polymath," had a more important purpose: to find the possible path Ralph had taken in creating his witchcraft.

"I want to advance Ralph Witchcraft to Professional Level, but I don’t want to become a Mad Wizard."

Before sinking completely into them, Tang Qi grumbled to himself.

...

The first floor of the Library Tower, the central reading area.

Tang Qi sat alone at one spot, in front of him was a huge, primitive Dark Red Boro Wood desk, and he slowly closed a red-covered book as large as a human torso, where the title seemed to be written in fresh blood:

"Red Robed Wizard Ancestor’s Autobiography."

At the same moment, other opened books lying on the desk, as if handled by pairs of invisible hands, silently closed.

Tang Qi didn’t leave his seat but instead pondered over the plethora of complex information tumbling through his mind.

He had originally thought that there couldn’t be many ways to create a Wizard Sect. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

But now, it seemed he was mistaken.

In his mind, the methods related to the creation of Wizard Sects shockingly amounted to dozens, even hundreds of types.

If one didn’t summarize them, there might be even more.

"Ralph, which method did you use?"

Tang Qi’s mind returned to this question.
