The Bizarre Wizarding World-Chapter 735 - 448: Surging Waves
Chapter 735: Chapter 448: Surging Waves
Although Colin had successfully escaped a disaster, his encounter had caused tremendous upheaval across the Siya Continent!
The traitor who sided with the Divine, who was also a Fourth Rank Wizard, had managed to infiltrate the heartland of the continent so silently!?
Suddenly, every wizard on the continent felt endangered, especially those in the regions of Merredith and Neustadt, who were close by. Some even moved to the deeper parts of Wizard City overnight.
Golden Barley.
Second floor study room of Wizard Tower.
"Councilman Colin, sorry to disturb you, could you describe the scene when you saw the traitor Calvin again?" a resolute-looking Third Rank Wizard politely asked.
"Sure." Colin nodded slightly and recounted the scene once again.
His Superbrain’s memory enabled him to precisely describe Calvin’s attire, expression, exact position, and even a small tree by the road.
After he finished recounting, the visiting Third Rank Wizard politely thanked him, then turned and left the room.
This ambush incident had an impact no less significant than the previous farmland pollution incident. Colin had lost count of how many times he had gone through such inquiries.
The wizards urgently needed to clarify how the Fourth Rank Wizard had managed to get past their defenses.
"Wizard’s side... obvious disadvantage..." Colin watched the investigating wizard leave the study and couldn’t help but sigh.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, both historically and presently, the Divine indeed held a much stronger overall power than the wizards.
The reason wizards had persevered for a thousand years now seemed solely due to the sacrifices of the Supreme Councilmen.
But a millennium had passed, and the world had once again reached the brink of destruction...
’How many traitors are still among the wizards?’
Colin silently stood up and slowly walked to the window.
The Supreme Councilmen had sacrificed their lives for a thousand years of time, yet the Wizard World had not only failed to progress but had even regressed.
At least, there weren’t so many traitors a thousand years ago.
And witchcraft... how much innovation has there been in witchcraft over the millennium?
The number of Supreme Councilmen also seemed to not have increased...
Swoosh.
Colin sighed again, switching to Supersensitive Vision. Suddenly, the clear air before him manifested grey-black Tainted babblings, sparse but ubiquitous.
He raised his right arm and gently gripped, but he couldn’t catch any strands of Tainted babblings.
They seemed to exist in another space, silently passing through his right palm.
Even when Colin covered his palm with spiritual power, Magic Power, will, Blood Energy, humanity, and knowledge’s Spiritual Light... he still couldn’t interfere with these Tainted babblings.
Only when Colin deliberately exposed a sliver of his humanity and knowledge’s Spiritual Light did the Tainted babblings swarm toward it like sharks smelling blood.
That the Wizard World hadn’t progressed in a millennium, Colin didn’t believe it was without the Divine’s meddling.
Tainted babblings were perhaps just part of it.
Now that the Wizard World’s hierarchy was so rigid, it seemed an inevitable result of driven interests, but the influence of the Divine was likely not absent.
Otherwise, facing such formidable enemies and internal strife, how could some Pureblood Wizards only focus on their shortsighted interests?
While Colin was so certain of this, it remained an unsubstantiated conjecture.
After all, the Divine had only started becoming active again in recent years.
What had transformed the Wizard World into this over the millennium, the underlying reasons must be complex.
Like the Supreme Councilmen... A shadow suddenly crossed Colin’s eyes.
But soon, he shook his head.
The Supreme Councilmen should be trustworthy, otherwise... Colin stopped his thoughts and decided not to ponder further.
Dealing with enemies that even the world’s will couldn’t detect... indeed posed a problem.
He didn’t think the Supreme Councilmen had any effective measures for them, otherwise, there wouldn’t be traitors among the wizards.
Moreover, those Supreme Councilmen... if he remembered correctly, since his arrival in this world, he had not heard of them taking action.
Could there be some restrictions?
...
Neustadt.
"Colin survived?!" Johnson looked incredulously at the subordinate reporting to him.
"... That’s what the information from our insiders says, and it’s also the message from the Supreme Council."
"How is that possible?!" Johnson murmured, then his expression turned furious, and he clenched his teeth.
Swoosh!
He made a motion as if to smash the desk!
"My lord!"
The black-robed subordinate spoke up bravely, "You instructed me last time to remind you to take care of this mahogany desk."
Johnson’s eyes widened and he breathed heavily for a moment, but ultimately, he lowered his hand.
The black-robed subordinate slightly relaxed.
Bang!
But in the next moment, Johnson swung his sleeve forcefully, and the black-robed wizard kneeling on the ground was suddenly thrown back against the wall, coughing up a large mouthful of blood.
Johnson didn’t even look at him and just left the study with a gloomy face.
"What on earth is the matter with you, Johnson!"
Just as he stepped out the door, he bumped into a young-faced, profound-eyed grey-robed wizard.
Even with immense anger inside, Johnson immediately ceased his tirade and greeted respectfully:
"Uncle Ron."
But Ron didn’t let him off and continued to press with a frown,
"Just because that Colin survived, you threw such a big tantrum?"
