Wizard: Adventures in Two Worlds-Chapter 618 - 35: Tomb
Charlotte wore a light purple robe and slowly sat down at the main seat of the banquet with the help of two maids.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
He raised his glass, smiling broadly:
"Let me toast you all first!"
"Cheers!"
"..."
Everyone raised their glasses and drank in unison.
"This time was really dangerous." Putting down the glass, Charlotte sighed lightly, showing a look of lingering fear:
"I almost died!"
On that day, when the Demon Hunting Battle Group suddenly defected, he was caught off guard and pierced through the heart with a sharp weapon.
Fortunately, Charlotte’s body had also been magically modified, and he promptly froze himself, returned to the academy for timely treatment, narrowly escaping death. Any mistake during this period would have led to his demise.
Thinking back now, he still looked fearful.
Today’s gathering was to celebrate his survival, bringing some of the wizards from the academy together.
"I once heard an Eastern proverb that says, ’A great disaster survived will bring good fortune.’ " Lynn spoke:
"Wizard Charlotte being able to survive shows that fate is on your side, with much potential for the future."
"Haha..." Charlotte laughed heartily, turning a rosy complexion:
"I hope so."
"But what Wizard Lynn said makes sense. If it weren’t for the assassination attempt, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to stay in the Star Realm for so long."
"Star Realm." Maki asked curiously:
"What is the academy’s station in the Star Realm like?"
The others also turned to look.
The academy’s station in the Star Realm had always been Viper Academy’s biggest secret, rarely entered even by wizards.
There are rumors,
The Star Realm station is the core of the academy.
Some even say that Akasha Wizard discovered a spatial fragment in the Star Realm, establishing the academy there.
No one knows the truth, but every wizard desires to enter the station for cultivation.
There, one can be in close contact with Star Realm Energy, gaining the equivalent of several days of external cultivation benefits.
"Star Realm station?" Charlotte shook his head gently:
"Can’t say, can’t say. When you reach the First Rank Peak and have a chance to advance to a Second Ring Wizard, you can enter."
"Alas!"
Everyone sighed lightly.
Only Beastman Nicole took a deep breath, his gaze shifting slightly.
He was already at the First Ring Late Stage, having recently fought with the Abyss Cottage and Demon Hunting Battle Group, repeatedly winning many good things, his cultivation advancing by leaps and bounds, not far from the First Rank Peak.
The Star Realm station can increase the success rate of advancing to a Second Ring Wizard, and he was already quite eager.
"Let me introduce you."
Charlotte pointed to a young man at the end of the seat:
"Bruno, a twenty-one-year-old Official Wizard, a genius of the academy. You’ve all heard of him."
The young man stood up upon hearing this, nodding to the crowd:
"Nice to meet you all."
"Wizard Charlotte, it’s best not to praise me. My skills may pass elsewhere, but here they’ll only embarrass me."
Saying this, he looked at Lynn with a bitter smile:
"Wizard Lynn may be my junior, but he became a wizard at sixteen and is now at the First Ring Middle Stage. He’s bound to become a Second Ring Wizard, much stronger than me."
"Haha..." Charlotte laughed, waving his hand:
"Wizard Lynn is an exception."
"Indeed."
Lynn nodded:
"The witchcraft I practice is quite special, sometimes progressing very slowly, but at other times advancing quickly."
Everyone chuckled at these words.
The Great Flame Witch Vein’s inheritance was not well known, but they knew it was a law of devouring.
With something to devour, the cultivation could increase rapidly; without it, progress was slow.
Back when Jito became a wizard, reaching the First Ring Middle Stage, he was known to have ’devoured’ three Advanced Wizard Apprentices.
That was what was known.
In secret, this number was at least doubled.
However, Lynn truly was an exception; he inherited the foundation of two wizards, soaring high.
He harmed no one, only envying his luck.
"I’ve received news that the Black Witch Tower has decided not to support the academy." Charlotte spoke:
"We’ll now have to deal with the Abyss Cottage and the Demon Hunting Battle Group’s attacks on our own."
"What?"
"How could this be?"
"..."
The room was immediately in turmoil.
Viper Academy, the Black Witch Tower, and the Demon Hunting Battle Group had allied several times to resist the Abyss Cottage together.
Now,
Everything had changed.
With Viper Academy’s strength, fighting both forces alone, especially the powerful Abyss Cottage, would be extremely taxing even with a deep foundation.
"There’s no way."
Charlotte sighed:
"For the Black Witch Tower to provide aid, they’d have to journey a long distance and might fall into an Abyss Cottage trap."
"And in their view, we have centuries of foundation and the Star Realm station as a trump card. We couldn’t lose."
"Not losing doesn’t mean we can win." Maki frowned:
"What does Rose Academy say?"
The Four Major Forces were all within Rose Academy’s sphere of influence; if it could be moved easily, everything would be settled.
"The principal sent a request for aid, but Rose Academy said our conflict was a power dispute, not an Abyssal Demon invasion, and they wouldn’t intervene." Charlotte sighed:
"Even if the principal could use personal connections to find a few helpers, we’d still primarily be resisting ourselves."
"But there’s some good news."
His tone shifted as he said:
"To resist the invasion of the two major forces, the academy has agreed to open the treasure vault for rewards."
"Various potions to increase spiritual power, demons, secret witchcrafts, Second Tier and even Third Tier inheritance witchcraft, etc..."
"As long as you have enough points, you can exchange for them!"
Everyone’s eyes brightened.
"Also, you shouldn’t worry too much." Charlotte continued:
"The academy will favor excellent wizard apprentices and wizards, arranging for as little dangerous tasks as possible."
......
After others had left, Beastman Nicole followed Charlotte to the study behind.
"How about it?"
Charlotte went from looking weak to speaking seriously:
"That Lynn, what do you think?"
"His luck is good, and he hides some methods, but I can’t tell much else at the moment." Nicole shook his head:
"He just advanced to a wizard and reached the First Ring Middle Stage, but his combat methods seem very simple."
"That’s normal." Charlotte nodded:
"He probably hasn’t had time to construct more First Ring witchcraft, and he doesn’t have a tutor."
"His experiences over the past ten years are easy to investigate."
"Yes." Nicole agreed:
"About the Star Realm..."
"You’re right." Charlotte’s spirit lifted, saying:
"The academy’s station in the Star Realm is indeed the burial place of a Beastman Tribe sage, possibly housing a Fifth Tier powerhouse!"
"Beast Blood Lowell!" Nicole’s body trembled:
"One of the Beastman ancestors, rumored to have the power to devour stars and wisdom that spans the universe."
"No one from the academy has entered the depths of the burial ground yet." Charlotte watched him:
"Do you have a way?"

Lynn borrowed points from Maki, and with his own points, he exchanged for Netherworld Fire at the academy.
This flame wasn’t Second Tier but had the potential to ascend to Second Tier.
If he could merge it with the Second Tier Fire Scale Flood Dragon, it might become a Second Tier Magic Fire.
"Phew..."
"It’s only a First Tier Flame. It should be possible to refine it without the Holy Source Water Drip, and simultaneously construct a witchcraft."
He had long decided on the witchcraft to construct.
Uzur Fire!
Legend says that the ancient Flame God of this world was called Uzur, and this witchcraft also bore no tier.
Lacking a tier doesn’t imply strong witchcraft, but rather high adaptability.
Uzur Fire’s power depends entirely on the controlled flame. Without tiered magic fire, even a Third Ring Wizard couldn’t unleash significant power.
But with Second or even Third Tier magic fire, the witchcraft’s power could be terrifyingly large.
"Ben’s urging is urgent; I must become a Second Ring Wizard in five years, so I’ll have to take a risk."
"Swish!"
His body flickered, transforming into a Fire Scale Flood Dragon, opening wide to swallow the Netherworld Fire whole.
"Boom!"
The flames on the Fire Scale Flood Dragon soared.
As the flame’s tier increased, the Flame Heart grew more active, raising spiritual power along with it.
First Ring Late Stage, gradually approaching.
