The magic swamp was still damp and dark every day, just like a pool of stagnant water filled with a foul stench.
However, under the muddy and dirty water, there was a terrifying undercurrent surging.
The prospective apprentices who were trapped on the first floor day and night were all full of envy towards those official apprentices who walked in front of them with their heads held high. However, they didn't know that a deadly storm that could destroy everything was coming towards them.
In this storm, those who were not prepared enough would not be able to escape.
In such a harsh environment, they held on for another 10 days. Finally, the terrifying day had arrived!
It was a gloomy and cold morning. Most of the apprentices were still immersed in their sweet dreams, but that scary Wizard Anderson had just completed the construction and modification of the mysterious wizard circle.
As soon as Wizard Anderson came out of that special sealed alternate dimension, he quickly inserted his power of the will into the control core of the high tower. He had a panoramic view of the entire tower.
These days, he had been busy in the alternate dimension, so he didn't have a complete understanding of the outside world. However, with his highest authority as a wizard stationed in the tower, nothing in this high tower could hide from his senses and prying.
Perhaps they were vaguely reacting to his cold power of the will prying, those few potential wizards of the will began to become active one after another, as if they had all woken up from their dreams.
Hmph, since the ones who should be here are all here, there's no time like the present. Let's carry out the plan today!
The skinny and skinny Wizard Anderson was wearing a pointy hat and a grey wizard robe. He silently stood in the control hall of the high tower. His hands kept moving in the air, forming dazzling spell runes one after another. As soon as these spell runes appeared, they would disappear in an instant. Then, the high tower would slightly tremble.
Under Wizard Anderson's control, the entire magic swamp was tightly covered by a thick mist. Even the few eye-catching entrances were hidden. As the tower slightly trembled, the body of the tower was also lit up.
When the raging elemental energy flowed through the green glow stone that was used to build the high tower, it emitted a cold and desolate magic glow. The dead souls and vengeful spirits that were usually hidden in the depths of the swamp swarmed out and began to circle around the high tower, continuously letting out soul-stirring ghostly screams.
The terrifying magical creatures that had signed a witchcraft contract with the Swamp Tower that were entrenched in various parts of the Magic Swamp Swamp became restless and active. They left their nests one after another and gathered around the tower, vigilant of any outsiders approaching.
Layers of magic light surrounded the high tower. Countless witchcraft traps and magic gears had been activated. All the secret magic doors and secret passages that could enter and exit the high tower had been sealed. Even the many narrow windows on the high tower were blocked by countless transparent air barriers.
Almost at the same time, all the Tower's apprentices were locked in place, unable to move at all.
Almost at the same time, all the tower apprentices were locked in place and could no longer move.
Following his command, the demonic worm Entich, who had been sitting in the secret chamber like a dead man, suddenly raised his head. His eyes lit up with blazing and bright soul flames. Following his command, the doors of the apprentices' residences that were protected by countless witchcraft barriers opened. The scorpions swarmed in like a tide and quickly wrapped around the apprentices.
With the help of Entik's many scorpions, all the tower apprentices were gathered and transported to the fifth floor, the higher floor of the Wizard's Pagoda that they had never set foot in before.
In the bright and spacious magic hall on the fifth floor, the scorpions swarmed in and out, transporting all the tower apprentices one after another.
Grim and the other two prospective wizard apprentices were at the forefront. They were tightly bound by translucent Air Shackles like mummies, their eyes closed and unconscious. Grim and the other two sorcerer apprentices were at the forefront. They were tightly bound by the translucent air shackles like mummies, their eyes closed, and they were unconscious.
Wizard Anderson only floated into the hall after everyone was in place. He looked down at the floor full of unconscious tower apprentices and smiled coldly.
When everyone was in position, Wizard Anderson floated into the hall. He lowered his head to look at all the unconscious tower's acolytes, and a cold smile emerged on his face.
"Stop pretending to be asleep. Do you think I can't sense your restless mind wave? In front of a Magus, all your tricks are useless! "
After hearing Anderson's words, the three prospective wizards at the forefront opened their eyes at the same time.
"Honorable Mr. Anderson, what are you trying to do? You can't be thinking of killing all the tower apprentices here, right? How are you going to explain this to the Sarubo Family? " Grim struggled a few times, but he could not break the shackles on his body. He angrily asked Anderson, who was floating in the air.
"Hmph! Family? When I use your blood, flesh, and souls to break the shackles, I will be a great level-two Wizard. By then, the Sarubo Family will be trying to curry favor with me. Why would they blame me for a group of apprentices like you? "
"What? You really want to kill us all? I … "
Anderson couldn't be bothered to listen to the last cry of a dying lamb. He pointed with one hand and a Silence Spell landed on Grim, instantly silencing him.
Mary and Alice struggled as hard as they could, but they could not break the shackles on their body.
Wizard Anderson gently pointed with his finger, and Grimm's storage belt flew into the air and landed in his hand. He closed his eyes and examined it. After a while, a look of joy appeared on his face. He flipped his hand, and a crystal clear magic puppet crystal core with strong elemental waves appeared in his hand.
Elemental puppets like this were rare even in the hands of an official Wizard. If he could erase Grim's will mark on it, maybe he could get himself a free servant. After making a few gestures, Anderson sealed this wizard crystal core with a simple seal and put it in his pocket with a smile on his face.
After looking around again and making sure he did not miss anything, Wizard Anderson raised his arms up high. Following a strong dimensional wave, the entire hall was wrapped in a gentle white light. When the white light slowly faded, everyone was no longer on the 5th floor of the Swamp Tower. Instead, they were in an unknown magic room.
The magic room was not small. It was about the size of 3 football fields. In the middle of the room, there was a strange triangular altar. The altar was not big, but it was divided into 3 levels. Each level was about 2 meters tall, and there were 10 steps connecting them.
On the walls of every level of the altar, there were all kinds of life-like human faces. Some were in pain, some were crying, some were crying, and some were sad. Their expressions were all different, but they were all very life-like. It was as if they were made of living people. It was very chilling!
Anderson flew up to the top of the altar and stood there steadily. As an obscure and profound incantation resounded in the world, the secret magic room was completely sealed with a rumbling sound, cutting off all contact with the outside world.
This was also Anderson's insurance.
In order to prevent the outside world from interfering, he temporarily sealed this space. Before he successfully performed the blood sacrifice, no one would be able to escape from here. Perhaps at this time tomorrow, the one who would walk out of this space with his head held high would be a reborn Anderson, a rank 2 Magus!
At that time, all those who had looked down on him would have to bow their heads under his dazzling radiance. They would be filled with fear and respect. The entire scattered tower forest would be celebrating the birth of a new rank 2 Magus!
With boundless expectations for the future, Anderson bent down and scanned the acolytes who were lying on the ground. He waved his hand and released the wind chains on Mary.
The moment she regained her freedom, Mary's figure was as fast as lightning. Almost instantly, she appeared in front of Anderson. Her blood-red claws slashed at his throat at a speed that was hard to see with the naked eye.
If not for that strange transparent barrier, Mary might have had a chance to hurt Anderson. Unfortunately, facing a Magus who had advanced for more than 300 years, no matter how fast Mary's sneak attack was, it was not as fast as Anderson's.
* Swoosh swoosh swoosh … *
Following that, countless claw marks appeared on the transparent barrier. Mary clenched her teeth and attacked with all her might, but she still could not break through that thin barrier.
With the support of the swamp tower, a steady stream of pure magic energy passed through space and entered the transparent barrier outside of Anderson's body. Unless Mary's attack was strong enough to break this barrier in one hit, she would not be able to exhaust the wind elemental energy on the barrier.
"My beautiful and elegant personal servant, do not restrain your wild and unrestrained nature. Give up your meaningless resistance. From now on, continue to crawl under the feet of your great Master Anderson …"
Following Wizard Anderson's murmur on the altar, Mary, who was in the middle of a crazy attack, suddenly trembled. Her scarlet eyes instantly turned pale. She also stopped what she was doing subconsciously.
"That's right, that's right! Go, go … Under the altar are the countless lambs I've prepared for you. Go taste their blood and let the boiling blood warm your cold body again … "
Mary's pretty face showed a hint of pain and struggle. Unfortunately, her will was not even worth mentioning under the restriction of Wizard Anderson's spell. She didn't even need to bend her fingers. Her main body's consciousness was overturned by the surging vampire instinct.
Mary's throat made a soft sound. She jumped down the altar and fiercely laid on the body of the acolyte closest to her. She angrily revealed her sharp vampire fangs and instantly pierced through the acolyte's carotid artery. The acolyte woke up from his deep sleep and cried loudly. Unfortunately, his cries for help and struggles were of no use. After a while, his breathing gradually became softer.
