Chapter 399 Part 15: Mystic Ruins
Mystic ruins,
The forces were waiting anxiously for the return of their wizards from the mystic ruin. Nobody knows what is happening inside the ruin. Whether the wizards are alive or not. This something can be known in the end.
Apart from the small forces, the three giant factions were the main focus. The Yellow River Academy, The Weapon Palace, and The Royal Force Hall.
Amongst three of them, only the Yellow River Academy had sent a few members. So the crew was slightly on edge. Mentor Lion is sharing the news with the Academy from time to time.
But still, the worry can be seen on his face. Apart from being a mentor to the new elite wizards. He is also someone from the bloodline hall. He is very well aware of the dangers of mystic ruin.
There was never a time when the mystic ruin didn’t take the life of the wizards. So Wizard Lion was mentally preparing himself for the result. He hopes at least nothing bad happened to Lara White and Vincent Carey.
If anything worse happens to them, then it would affect the strength of Taboo Hall and Sub-taboo Hall.
Then the Academy won’t let him off easily. Feeling the pressure weighing over his head, he sighed inwardly.
His emotions can be seen by others behind him. They were all peers. Seeing the distressed look of the Lion, a beautiful female wizard steps forward.
Her name is Molly Wilkins, level-6 Healer from the medicine hall. She was appointed to treat students in case of emergency. Not only the Yellow River Academy. The other two academies have their respective healer as well.
“Ahem, wizard lion. You are thinking too much. Let’s wait for the result. There was no point in worrying before that,” Molly said in a calm tone.
She has long black hair and eyes. Unlike others, she was dressed in a typical medicine hall’s white lab coat.
Her words brought some positivity to the wizards.
Mentor Lion who was sulking a few seconds ago returns to his calm demeanor.
“Thanks, Molly, it’s just that I have this lingering feeling that something bad is going to happen, “Mentor Lion Heart commented.
Molly’s eyes lit up with surprise. Looking at the person with long blonde hair and golden eyes in front of her. She recalls the image of Lion Heart before he was appointed as a teaching staff.
“The mad-looking lion is missing nowadays,” She said in her heart. She feels that his teaching career somewhat affected him. He has almost become docile which is unlikely for the image of bloodline hall.
She knows that bloodline hall has been creating some fuss lately. Which has something to do with one of the special class wizards.
If anything happens to them, then all the blame would be directed to Lion Heart. After connecting the dots, she shook her head in disappointment.
This was not the right time for mystic ruins trials. Especially the bloodline hall is making noise in the academy.
Wizard Lion caught the expression of Molly from the corner of his eyes. He knows what his peers were thinking. But it can’t be helped. He is just following the orders of the academy.
He can’t refuse it for personal reasons.
Meanwhile,
Inside the Royal Force Hall’s golden fleet,
Like Wizard Lion, the Royal Force team was also headed by the teaching staff as well.
Her name is Lydia Burke- level-6 Golden Falcon Transformation Wizard. Like her magic, she was dressed In golden attire like a princess.
Right now she is seated in the main seat and reading the reports coming back from the academy.
She has long blonde hair and eyes. Her senses were heightened because of her magic. While reading the reports she overheard the words of others.
A frown appeared on her beautiful face. She didn’t know why but she got this uneasy feeling all of a sudden. This event would end disastrously.
“Who’s there,” She said in a low tone.
Swish!
The next moment, an old man wearing a tuxedo appeared in front of her.
Lydia asked, “Did you find anything from those yellow ?” She was hoping to collect information from the Yellow River Academy. As they are the ones who first arrived here.
The old man began to speak. He told what he had observed so far. And the information collected from other factions in the vicinity as well. .π―π΅
Lydia eases her eyebrows and sends him back. “Nobody has seen their wizards,” She mumbled under her breath. They were a little bit late to come here. Because of that, they have failed to see the cards of the Yellow River Academy.
Don’t know why? The Yellow River Academy gives her even more headaches. She doesn’t know about the students. But she learned who was leading their team.
“Bloodline Wizard- Lion Heart,” Lydia said to herself. She was no stranger to the name. That person used to be an old rival. Now he has switched to the teaching profession.
Then shaking her she pushed down these thoughts and continued to read the reports.
Similar situations were happening inside the giant ax fleet. Wilbur Ballard- level-6 Black Axe wizard is worried for students’ safety. Initially there wasn’t much panic.
But as the days went by everyone seemed to recall the horror of mystic ruins. The mystic ruin has its restrictions and measures. You cannot predict anything when it comes to mystic ruins.
…
From MC’s perspective:
The two unexpected gifts brought me a huge surprise. Which also shows that it’s good to make connections with other halls. You can exchange valuables whenever you want.
After closing the status panel, I decided to take some rest.
The following day,
Inside the Gregor mansion, I started my morning meditation. I got these piles of mana stones for my mediation. There is no need to worry about a lack of mana.
Outside, Lara and the other two woke up from their sleep and walked out of their tent. Seeing that Vincent’s tent is closed. Three of them decided not to disturb me.
Meanwhile, I started absorbing the gray mana particles from the surroundings. When the man entered my body, I guided the energy according to the mental method.
After circulation, the purified mana settles down in the mana core. Seeing that, I continued to repeat the process.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
I opened my eyes three hours later. My daily limit has been reached. I can’t absorb the mana anymore. Seeing that I decided to look up the system.
“System, show me the status panel,” I said to the system.

The status panel appeared and my eyes began to scan the details. After seeing that there was no change in attributes, I sighed in relief. Which means my body had absorbed the energy of the treasures.
After closing the status panel, I got up to take shower. After a few minutes, I changed into fresh clothes and a mage robe and left the Gregor mansion.
I appeared outside back in my tent. I know three of them might already be awake. So I slowly walked out of the tent.
Gasp!
The next moment I was greeted by a surprised-filled gasp. Three of them looked at me with surprised looks on their faces.
“Brother Vincent, did you take a bath?”
“How can you smell so good?”
Eva asked out of curiosity.
But sudden realizations struck my mind. Then I see three of them wearing the same clothes from yesterday. They don’t have a separate space mansion like me.
After quickly connecting the dots, I replied, “I used some stored water from the container vessel.”
This time my answer convinced them. If it’s necessary it was normal for wizards to carry some containers having water.
But these guys don’t seem to have it either. When I turned toward Lara White. She quickly avoided her gaze. I controlled myself from laughing out loud.
When I thought about her ice-cold snowstorm magic, I quickly controlled my emotions.
There was a sudden awkward silence.
“I think we should start moving,” I opened my mouth to break the atmosphere.
Lara White, Don, and Eva nodded their heads before starting to remove the tent.
