Chapter 99 This witch is a bit proactive
"This ship is only about ten meters long, not as big as the one the wizard Randolph had before, which means there are far fewer sea creatures climbing aboard. So I won't waste a single one of them." Lin Wei muttered to himself, his eyes fixed on the sea creatures in front of him, his fists clenched, ready to strike at any moment.
He quickly killed three sea creatures, their blood splattering on him, but he didn't care. The gray face of the Rubik's Cube was unlocking at a rapid pace, and excitement appeared on his face.
"Almost there, about 50 left." Lin Wei muttered to himself, then charged at another group of sea creatures, slamming his fists down like heavy hammers, sending the sea creatures flying one after another.
Unlike Lin Wei, everyone else, including Kaiya, was struggling to hold on. Kaiya's forehead was covered in sweat, and his hair was soaked and stuck to his face. Even as a first-class wizard apprentice, facing a swarm of sea creatures, he felt a great deal of fear, because wizard apprentices were ultimately very fragile. His body trembled slightly, but he still tried his best to cast spells.
"what!"
A third-class wizard apprentice had his chest pierced by a sea urchin. His eyes were wide open, filled with resentment. He let out a miserable scream before dying, and his body slowly fell to the ground.
The others were unable to offer any assistance, and even Lin Wei, having fought his way deep into the enemy territory, was powerless to help. He could only sigh helplessly and continue attacking the sea creatures ahead.
"I estimate half of them will die, and that's with me in the mix." Lin Wei shook his head, a look of regret on his face. "The sea race and wizards are sworn enemies. I've heard that even at the formal wizard level, there are stronger sea races to hunt. And this is after the Wizarding Council has weakened them; the stronger plane races are intercepting them at a greater distance." He attacked while thinking.
……
Half a day later, the gray clouds over the small boat completely dissipated, leaving the deck in a mess, littered with the corpses and bloodstains of sea creatures.
Only four wizard apprentices remained on the deck; the rest were all dead, including the one who had spoken tauntingly earlier. He had been torn to pieces by two sea creatures, his body mutilated beyond recognition, a truly gruesome scene.
Only Lin Wei, Kaiya, the first-class wizard apprentice, and the only witch remained on the ship.
"Half of our people are dead. What bad luck." Kaiya, pale-faced, collapsed on the deck and groaned in pain. His body was limp, as if all his strength had been drained. This was a sign of mental exhaustion. He had single-handedly killed six sea creatures, a commendable performance.
"There's nothing we can do. This is the fate of us modern wizards. The struggle with the sea creatures has been going on for thousands of years. It's ingrained in everyone's bones," said another first-class wizard apprentice. One of his arms was broken, with the white bone exposed. His wand was also worn out and burned, so he had to get a new one. His face was filled with exhaustion and helplessness.
"Junior Brother Lin Wei, thank you so much." The witch kept thanking Lin Wei, her voice trembling. If it weren't for his care, she would have died several times over. She was lucky; whenever she was about to be killed by the sea creatures, Lin Wei would just happen to be nearby and easily save her. Her eyes were full of gratitude.
"Junior Brother Lin Wei, we were able to get through this thundercloud storm successfully thanks to you." Kaiya struggled to his feet, swaying as he poured a bottle of recovery potion into his mouth. The potion dripped down his chin, but he didn't bother to wipe it away.
"Yes, thanks to you." Another first-class wizard apprentice also came over, his face full of admiration, his body leaning against the ship's railing for support.
In an instant, the other three were all impressed by Lin Wei's strength. Even though he was just a newcomer, they estimated that Lin Wei had killed nearly twenty sea creatures by himself, which was outrageous. All three of them had expressions of amazement on their faces.
"We're all part of the same organization, this is nothing," Lin Wei shrugged, his face showing humility.
"I'll write a letter when I get back, reporting your achievements. Points will be credited to your account in the tower, and you'll get 60% of the sea creature flesh and blood. The rest we'll split among the three of us." Kaiya patted Lin Wei's robe and said with a smile, gently pressing his hand on Lin Wei's shoulder.
"Although none of us want to encounter thundercloud storms, this is also an opportunity. Look, this ship full of sea creature flesh and blood, once distributed, means I won't have to worry about the amount I need to hand over for at least two years. I can then focus on studying meditation techniques and improving myself," Kaiya continued, his face showing anticipation.
"That's true." Lin Wei nodded, but he was a little frustrated because the gray face of the Rubik's Cube was still not unlocked. He guessed he would have to try again. His brows furrowed slightly.
"Then let's go back. Report the dead wizard apprentices to the teachers; we don't need to worry about them anymore." Kaia took the helm, his hands gripping the helm tightly, his eyes resolute.
"Junior Brother Lin Wei, my name is Bondi. If you have any questions about cultivation in the future, feel free to ask me. I am also a pharmacist apprentice, and I usually teach pharmacy-related courses. I am a substitute teacher of pharmacy. If you are interested, you can sign up. I will not charge you any points." Another first-class wizard apprentice came over and said with a friendly look and a warm smile.
Pharmacist apprentice?
Lin Wei knew that in the wizarding world, alchemists were a highly sought-after profession, as they could create various magical potions that greatly helped wizards in terms of combat power and breakthroughs. Wizards needed potions to stimulate their mental power to achieve breakthroughs, and this was a must-have breakthrough potion made by an alchemist.
Of course, wizard apprentices don't need them yet. Breakthrough potions are only required when a first-class wizard apprentice breaks through to become a full-fledged wizard. Before that, it's enough to ensure that your mind can absorb a sufficient amount of elemental factors.
"No problem, Senior Brother Bondi." Lin Wei's lips curled up, revealing a gentle smile.
Being able to get to know a pharmacist apprentice is quite an achievement, Lin Wei thought to himself, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"Junior Brother Lin Wei, you are welcome to visit my courtyard after you return. This is my courtyard number."
The only witch blushed slightly, handed a note to Lin Wei, her eyes darting around but hinting at something.
"Forehead……"
Lin Wei wasn't stupid; he naturally understood the witch's thoughts. He smiled and took the note, but his fingers accidentally touched the witch's hand, making her blush even more.
Wizards have very open minds, so they treat matters of the heart as casually as eating and drinking. As long as their minds are open and it doesn't affect their breathing exercises or the acquisition of knowledge, that's fine.
But Lin Wei was different. He frowned slightly and thought to himself, "The witch will only slow down my sword-drawing speed."
