"Agatha is right!"

A clear and cold female voice suddenly interjected, shocking both people in the room.

With the soft knock of the wooden door, a slender figure wrapped in a palace dress appeared in front of the two of them.

"My lord!"

The two people in the room quickly bowed and saluted, feeling inexplicably nervous.

Because the one who came was none other than the patriarch and leader of the whole clan of deceitful witches, Lady Angelina who possessed the strength of Tier 4.

This Witch Angelina is over 700 years old, but judging from her appearance alone, she seems to be a few years younger than her daughter, Witch Lena. When the two stood together, the unsuspecting guy would mistake Witch Reina for her mother, and this Angelina for her daughter.

However, as a fourth-level witch, with Angelina's arrival, the entire haunted house suddenly became quiet.

Some weird monsters kept in bottles, jars or wooden cages curled up in the corner tremblingly, not even daring to breathe.

As long as the other party's spiritual power sweeps through the many secrets of light and darkness in the wooden house, they will be fully revealed.

In particular, the secret laboratory hidden in the basement of the wooden house attracted Witch Angelina's spiritual power to linger for a while.

"I completely agree with what Agatha said just now!" Angelina walked to the bed, looked at Xue Fu who was still unconscious, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Before coming, I have ordered to stop chasing the candidates of destiny. killed."

"Mother..." Witch Lena couldn't help but took a step forward.

"Needless to say." Angelina interrupted her directly: "You and I both need to bear certain responsibilities when things have come to this point. Wrong is wrong. When things develop to the point of no return, we must Correct the mistake."

"Yes, Mother!" Witch Lena lowered her head sadly.

She is well aware of her mother's temperament, and she has always said the same about things that have been decided, and cannot tolerate outsiders' disobedience.

"Take it easy these few years! You don't have to worry about the affairs of the clan, and concentrate on assisting Xuefu. Be sure to arm her with strength before the battle of fate begins. The return of the fate witch is likely to be a harbinger. The faction of witches who have cut off their inheritance is likely to return one after another, so... "

Having said that, Angelina paused for a moment, and suddenly stopped talking.

This matter is extremely complicated, and it is likely to involve the love-hate entanglement of the thirteen ancient witch branches, so before getting news from outside the territory, the more you do, the more mistakes you will make. This is another main reason why Angelina immediately stopped the pursuit!

Hearing that the power in her hand was taken away, Witch Lena's face turned a little pale in an instant, but she still nodded obediently with lowered eyebrows.

"When will she wake up?" Angelina asked Agatha this time.

Sensing the direct gaze of a fourth-level witch, Agatha instantly sweated profusely, and barely calmed down: "Miss Xuefu didn't suffer any physical injuries, but her mental consciousness was severely impacted. If she can get rid of the nightmare by herself entanglement, then the spiritual source will only need a period of conditioning to recover. If it is forcibly awakened, I am worried... "

"Then let her stay with you for a while. You can go to the clan to withdraw any resources you need during the period, and it must not damage Xue Fu's talent potential. Do you understand?"

"Understood...understood..." Agatha nodded quickly.

"Also, manage your laboratory well. If you let me hear any news about 'it' outside the Whispering Forest, do you know what the consequences will be?" Walking to the door, Angelina stopped in her tracks again, coldly Explained a few words.

And Witch Agatha seemed to understand what the matriarch said, she kept nodding her head.

"Yes... yes... yes... I must be careful."

After the powerful Witch Angelina left, that Witch Lena stared at Agatha suspiciously: "What kind of forbidden experiment are you doing behind the scenes? Even Mother can't help but beat you."

"It's nothing... really nothing..." Witch Agatha smiled obsequiously on her ugly old face, and kept playing sloppy eyes.

"Hmph, it's best not to cause any serious consequences, otherwise I won't spare you if my lord mother doesn't deal with you." The next words of this lord Lena immediately made Witch Agatha's head a little bigger: " Well, Xuefu is going to recuperate here, the second floor of this hut will be my temporary residence! Take care of Xuefu, and don’t bother me if you have nothing to do!"

After saying that, she waved her hand, and the trainee witches she brought rushed in immediately, as if they wanted to clean the haunted house thoroughly.

Agatha's wrinkled face finally couldn't help twitching.

...

Seven years later.

Feidnan City, Wizard Tower.

Seven years is not long or short.

For those high-level wizards, seven years may only be enough to complete a large-scale witchcraft experiment. But for wizard apprentices, it is enough for them to go between heaven and hell!

Wizard Meryl walked out of the classroom with a thick book in her arms.

A group of gray-robed apprentices immediately showed cautious and respectful expressions when they saw her, and they all avoided to the sides of the corridor, bowing slightly to salute.

With a faint smile on her face, Wizard Meryl passed through the crowd and turned towards the floating disk.

After returning to the sixth floor, she unexpectedly saw a familiar figure at the door of her residence.

"Am, is it you? When did you come back?" Meryl asked with a little surprise, and there was a bit of intimacy in her words.

"Just came back. Lady Alice asked me to invite you over." Amn was a little cautious.

Although he was very lucky to become a quasi-wizard 5 years ago, he was far behind Meryl who was promoted to wizard 2 years ago.

They were all wizard apprentices originally. Although there is some difference in strength, they are all apprentices in essence, so there is not much barrier in communication. But now, as Meryl successfully became a wizard, the original five apprentices unnaturally split up.

As a veteran quasi-witch in the group of five, Kodal was naturally unwilling to be overtaken by Meryl and become an inferior apprentice. Therefore, I forced a promotion last year, but unfortunately, I failed! Although not life-threatening, the traumatized mental space has not been repaired until now.

The remaining three senior apprentices, Am and Torre, also successfully became quasi-witches. Only Linna is still struggling at the senior apprentice level.

And 3 years ago, the Sarubo family assigned another wizard apprentice. There are three new senior apprentices under the name of Wizard Greem, and five new apprentices under the name of Witch Alice.

As for Meryl, since she had just advanced to the rank of wizard, she still focused on stabilizing her mental space, so the family did not assign her an apprenticeship. However, she took the initiative to undertake the teaching task of the open class inside the wizard's tower, so she has the most extensive good reputation among the family's apprentices.

In the past seven years, with the return of the Sarubo family's extraterritorial resources and the return of sporadic family wizards, the Wizard Tower in Feidnan City has become lively again.

The return of the 2nd-level wizard Lord Fogan and another 1st-level wizard Geya brought back a large number of rare resources from the alien plane. Under the family's spare no effort to cultivate, three quasi-sorcerers have been successfully promoted to become wizards in five years, which also allowed Feidnan City, the foundation of the Sarupo family, to once again have double-digit wizards garrisoned.

1 Tier 3 wizard Sanaza, 1 Tier 2 wizard Fogan, and 9 Tier 1 wizards!

After seven years, the Sarubo family has finally recovered from the impact and impact of the last plane war on the family. As long as we continue to fight steadily, the strength of the family will definitely continue to improve.

If the only two third-level wizards in the family can successfully advance to the fourth level, then the Sarupo family has the hope of becoming a large wizard family.

After all, in the world of wizards, the only top strength that everyone recognizes is only level 4!

Hearing that Alice was inviting, Meryl immediately showed a joyful smile, and brought Amn to the 7th floor of the Wizard Tower.

Although after being promoted to a wizard, she already has the capital to go out independently, but relying on the friendship and feelings of the previous years, Meryl still claims to be a wizard of the Greem faction, especially her relationship with Alice is the strongest. close.

There are two reasons for this result:

The first point, of course, is that both of them are 'women'.

Although Alice's body was solidified in the state of an 8-year-old girl, if she really counted it, she is now a mature woman of 23 years old. At least psychologically so!

Meryl was about the same age as her, one was Greem's 'subordinate' and the other was Greem's disciple, their close identities quickly made them close friends who talked about everything.

The second point is that only the two of them know it.

Before Meryl advanced, Alice used divination to help her solve some problems that had troubled her for a long time. And most of the expenses required for her promotion ceremony were borne by Greem's mentor, so after the promotion was successful, the impoverished wizard Meryl naturally approached her.

In Alice's residence, a large wind eagle was tied up and lay flat on the floor, and its scorched feathers showed how tragic it had been 'abuse'.

"Sister Alice, did you really bring it back?" Meryl couldn't help shouting in surprise when she saw the prey Alice brought back this time.

"How about it, Meryl, do you still like it?" Alice stood beside the immobile Wind Eagle, stepped on the eagle's head with her little feet, and showed off triumphantly: "I brought this back for you specially. You After becoming a wizard, there is no suitable flying pet, can you see if it is suitable?"
