Chapter 42 The Hidden Methods of a Veteran Dark Wizard
If we say that Wizard Lescent's wizard tower was on the pirates surrounded by the sunken ship, and that these pirates noticed the location of Wizard Lescent's wizard tower, we can say that these pirates were very observant, while Wizard Lescent was careless and did not notice the pirates' attention to his lair.
The fact that Wizard Lescent's lair was located on such a small reef, and that no matter how alert or careful the pirates were, they could not possibly pinpoint the location of Wizard Lescent's lair without being detected by him, is to underestimate a wizard.
Sensing the doubts of Loen and the Crimson Wizard, the pirate who had led the way immediately began to explain.
The wizard Recent was an extremely cruel dark wizard.
After the pirates delivered their looted supplies to the island, Wizard Recent would kill the pirates who transported the supplies.
But he didn't kill the pirates with any magical witchcraft.
Instead, they would let the pirates board the ship and sink them and the pirate ship together in the waves, letting them drown in the ocean.
Among the pirates who drowned was a pirate named Lynn.
—He and the pirate who led the way were twin brothers.
These twin brothers have a secret that only they know.
Under certain conditions, they can share each other's senses, allowing each other to know what they see and what they hear.
In this world, twins are very popular with wizards—many legends about wizards involve wizards using twins for experiments.
To avoid becoming a wizard's experiment, when they encountered a pirate raid, the older brother, Yalin, cut off his own nose.
In this way, no one could tell from their appearance that he and Lynn were twins.
So, after that raid, the twins joined the Bloodtooth Shark Pirates.
Wizard Resent naturally didn't notice this either—after all, no wizard would invest too much energy in an ordinary person.
The reason why Yalin determined the location of the Wizard Tower of the Recent Wizard was on this reef is because of this.
As Lynn was slowly drowning in the waves, his older brother, Yalin, shared Lynn's senses.
So, through his brother's eyes, he saw the wizard Lessonte carrying so many supplies, 'diving' into the reef like ants carrying food.
Ants moving house.
Listening to Yalin's description, Loen and the Crimson Wizard exchanged a glance, both feeling a strange sensation welling up inside them.
Before dying in the ocean, the wizard Lescent was perceived as a mysterious, evil, and powerful dark wizard.
—The thought of this dark wizard killing all the pirates who were delivering goods, and then, when no one was around, like an ant, slowly carrying the pirates' supplies into his lair... diligent and careful... like a treasure goblin carrying a sack.
The more you think about this scene, the more you can't help but laugh.
"Cough cough."
"Crimson Wizard, you wait on the ship. I'll go check out that reef." Loon tried his best to look serious, suppressing the laughter in his heart.
"Okay." The Crimson Wizard nodded as well.
Although Wizard Lescent drowned right before their eyes, in her mind, Wizard Lescent was still a rare and powerful figure.
If it weren't for the fact that Lawon's mount was killed by Loon, giving them the opportunity to safely kill Lawon, even though she was already a second-class wizard apprentice and had Andy's help, she would never have easily become an enemy of Lawon.
At most, the two sides can coexist peacefully.
But now, her perception of Wizard Lessent as a powerful figure has completely collapsed!
At that moment, she only found the wizard Lessont funny, not scary.
As a result, other dark wizards like the one in Lescent no longer appear terrifying.
"They're all just wizarding apprentices like me," the Crimson Wizard thought.
In her view, after giving himself an underwater breathing harness, Luo Ang carefully disembarked from the boat.
A shark surfaced beside the boat, carrying Loon toward the exposed reef.
A large patch of seaweed was attached to the reef, with some shrimp hiding among it.
Luo Ang raised his hand, his mental energy solidifying as if it were tangible, and used it to push away the attached seaweed.
In this wave, Luo Ang immediately noticed the flaw in the reef.
There is a thin crack on the reef, dividing it into two parts, upper and lower.
With a gentle push on the upper part of the reef, as if opening the lid of a cup, a hole appeared before Luo Ang's eyes.
"Is it really here?" Looking at the cave entrance, even though they knew the pirate who had led them wouldn't dare to lie to them, Loon and the Crimson Wizard were still stunned for a moment.
Who would have thought that the wizard Recent would place the entrance to his lair here?
There was no wizarding trickery at the entrance—just a simple 'lid' covered with some seaweed.
The method of hiding it was incredibly simple and unpretentious.
But Loon was certain that if the pirates hadn't led him here, he would never have been able to find this entrance.
the reason is simple.
Because no one could have imagined that the entrance would be here, or that it would be hidden in this way.
In that instant, Loon couldn't help but think of the Scarlet Wizard's stronghold.
That place was also extremely secluded.
You need to first use underwater breathing techniques to dive into the water, pass through an underwater cave, and then go up to reach their base—its structure is similar to a curved-neck flask.
"Are all the wizards in the sea so aware of danger that they all hide their strongholds like this?" Luo Ang wondered.
Standing at the entrance, Luo Ang carefully lowered his mental energy down the opening to observe the situation inside.
This reef, like the islands next to it, is clinging tightly to the seabed.
The wizard Recent's lair began here, gradually hollowing out the reef and extending it towards the seabed below.
Upon reaching the seabed, we gradually expanded to the left and right, following its terrain and structure.
Just by looking at it from the outside, one can imagine the sheer scale of the project and how hard the wizard Lescent worked during construction—it's no exaggeration to call him a diligent civil engineer in the wizarding world.
Luo Ang kept a straight face.
The image of Wizard Lescent huffing and puffing as he dug out this stronghold, then secretly dumping the excavated soil and rocks elsewhere, was becoming increasingly comical.
"It looks like this is where Wizard Recent usually practices," Loon said, beckoning to the Crimson Wizard and telling him about his discovery.
