Link was not a petty person.

Usually, when faced with disagreements, such as when five guys tried to bully him at school, he didn’t bear grudges.

Link would merely beat them up, give them a lesson, and vent his anger.

As for Mina Havcheck, who had clarified her part of the suspicion and promised not to stir up trouble, she received a promise of reconciliation from Link.

All that Link did was have Jasmine block her on social media.

And then there was Sophie Lucia-

Well, that was more due to her strong background and his helplessness. Anyway, Link was magnanimous and didn’t hold grudges lightly. But Harold Andrews was an exception. Link truly bore a grudge against him.

A very, very, very deep grudge.

in Link’s understanding, there were two particularly cruel ways to destroy a

person.

One was to physically destroy them, rob them of their life, and reduce their

body to ashes.

Some brutal people would even torture their victims before committing the act

of murder.

The other was to socially destroy them, making them despised by everyone, treated like dung, and avoided like venomous snakes.

And the common method to socially destroy a person was to smear their reputation, defame them, slander them, and incite public sentiment violence. Harold Andrews had launched three waves of such attacks on Link in total.

The first wave of attack exploited the defection of the five guys to portray Link as an ambitious person, aiming to provoke the hostility of people like the President of the New Blood Mutual Aid Association and fuel fear and isolation towards Link among the first-year Newbloods.

The second wave and the longest-lasting third wave of attacks targeted

Jasmine.

Harold had taken some blurry long-distance photos, fabricated some dialogues, and concocted a few stories to portray Link as an arrogant show-off, a master manipulator, and a hopelessly desperate case.

This severely affected Link’s reputation and image.

If it weren’t for Link’s indifference to these public sentiment attacks, and his cool-headed response throughout;

If it were someone else who had not experienced the power of rumor and slander as the main driving force of public sentiment violence, and became the target of such attacks,

Harold Andrews would have achieved his goals by now.

Even if things went awry and he couldn’t completely eliminate his target from the social level, he could at least cause a mental breakdown.

When a person’s state of mind collapses, they can do all sorts of stupid things.

Withdrawal is the lightest penalty; self-harm isn’t the worst.

As the victim of public sentiment violence, when they see the world in grey, life as hopeless, they may choose to end their own life to escape the world. Many have done so.

That’s how powerful and harmful public sentiment violence is!

That’s how profound its damage is!

That’s how disastrous its consequences are!

Therefore, the enmity between Link and Harold Andrews was not a minor grudge, but a matter of life and death!

This is an irreconcilable hatred. If Harold Andrews doesn’t die, Link’s resentment will never be appeased.

Retaliation was inevitable.

Link once tried to find a good opportunity for retaliation by tracking Harold, but his cloak’s optical stealth was detected by an intelligent law enforcement puppet, so he had to abort his plan.

That’s why he decided to abandon the cloak when he decided to enter Ravensmouth City.

The optical stealth function of the cloak could only deal with wizard apprentices who had no targeted measures.

If they encountered an intelligent law enforcement puppet, or people like Link himself, who wore glasses that could discern disguises and see through invisibility, it would not work at all.

Later, Link was immersed in studying, researching, experimenting and self-studying Potion Study, and he had no time to plan his retaliation. Who would have thought that he would stumble upon Harold Andrews in the Black Market on the first day of vacation, without even looking for him.

This was truly a golden opportunity!

Isn’t it quite normal for a few people to die in the West District? Heaven gives and takes, and those who resist will bear the consequences. There are some things that if you don’t do, your heart will always be uneasy! A fleeting thought crossed Link’s mind, and the intention to kill instantly arose.

The “Mind Closure Technique” immediately kicked into Full Gear, hiding his murderous intent.

His gaze conveniently shifted away from the silhouette of Harold Andrews, naturally scanning his surroundings.

Link, with his keen senses, wouldn’t knowingly commit a mistake that would alert Harold Andrews.

He didn’t even let the corner of his eye fall on him.

Following the original plan, Link continued his stroll in the Black Market.

The Magic Tool section was an eye-opener for Link.

Only the unimaginable, but nothing was impossible.

All kinds of bizarre, various Magic Tools were presented in front of Link, causing a great impact.

Any technological marvel he had seen or heard of in his past life, he could find a fantastical version of it in the Wizard World.

There were many other Magic Tools with even more unimaginable effects, such as the Melting gun of the Second-Ring level, which was something that could not be achieved by previous technology.

Even for an official wizard, if his defenses were broken, and he was irradiated by the rays shot from the Melting gun, all his flesh and blood would instantly become ash.

It was that terrifying!

Link was greatly tempted, but unfortunately, his pockets were shallow. The Magic Stones he carried in his arms were not enough to buy even a First Ring Level Magic Tool.

Compared to the Magic Tool prices in the University Life Service Building, the prices of Magic Tools here in the Black Market were at least double from the start.

The numerous types, powerful effects, and the privacy of not keeping records, are the exact reasons why the prices in the Black Market skyrocketed, in Ravensmouth City, apart from the North City District, there was no other place that could outperform the Black Market in these three aspects. After touring the Magic Tool section, Link went back to stroll in the Rune Item Area again.

The Rune items here were equally dazzling and varied in types.

In just a short while, Linkhad found all the Rune items he had on him.

The prices were really not attractive, much more expensive than in the University Life Service Building.

But those Rune items that the University Life Service Building couldn’t sell were really tempting.

Link felt a strong urge, very much inclined to spend all his Magic Stones. Suddenly, Harold Andrews unexpectedly came to the stall where Link was. Link was not disturbed at all, his mindset was very stable.

Using the three tricks: Changing his hairstyle, makeup and changing his outfit, and adding in the shifts in character made based on the “Mind Closure Technique” and the Hall of Mind,

Even someone as familiar as Jasmine Kidman would have to identify repeatedly to determine Link’s identity.

How could Harold Andrews recognize Link?

As Link expected, Harold Andrews wasn’t approaching him.

Link politely moved away.

When there’s no business at the Black Market stalls, you are free to look, free to choose.

But when other customers come, you should be considerate and not stay in place to listen to their conversation.

That’s a big taboo.

-Boss, do you still have the mini Stealth recorders you were talking about last time? I’ll take a set.”

Harold Andrews was apparently not a first-time customer at this stall. He came directly and asked the owner without choosing anything.

Link’s ears were quite sharp. After walking out a few steps, he still heard Harold’s words.

A mini Stealth recorder?

Isn’t that a goddamn bug?

The bastard has evil intentions; is he preparing to eavesdrop?

The killing intent in Link’s heart surged even more..
