Secret passage, witch formation, library...

In Levi's eyes, a standard wizard family castle appears, and the burned castle is restored.

"A site dedicated to cultivating dripping mushrooms, one of the main materials of the jade potion."

"The witch formation in this secret room showed signs of being cracked by violence, and the self-destruction program also showed signs of being activated, but it was forcibly terminated by another powerful spiritual force."

…

Levi walked through the castle and entered each room in the ruins of the castle to conduct detailed scans.

In the bell tower, a broken copper bell fell to the ground.

Standing on the bell tower, you can overlook the entire old town of Bering City.

The newly built castle not far away failed to replicate the grandeur of the old castle and was much smaller in scale.

"It's so late, and the lord of Bering City still wants to go out?"

Li Wei saw a group of luxurious carriages in the distance, traveling at night with lights on, aiming directly at the cruise ship in the port, which was very dazzling in the dim city. Looking at the posture, they were ready to go out to sea to live in a dream.

"The frequency of travel is a bit high."

Levi frowned. He knew very well how extravagant the nobles in this world were, but he still couldn't help complaining.

"However, this trip was not completely fruitless."

Li Wei whispered that he found the marks left by other wizard apprentices in the ruins.

This castle is so eye-catching that every wizard apprentice passing by Bering City will probably be tempted to come in and explore it, right?

Outside Bering City, the closest town to the city, several large manors are located here.

Most of the wizard marks in the castle point in this direction, and a few others point to other towns.

These wizard apprentices were encircling the entire Bering City. It seemed that there were not a few wizard apprentices who coveted the Johnson family's inheritance.

Just as Levi's Austin family operates a series of external forces such as the Silver Crystal Chamber of Commerce, various wizarding families are often full of cunning rabbits.

Many people speculate that the ancestors of the Johnson family have left the Johnson family with resources for a comeback, somewhere on the vast ocean, and many people firmly believe this.

There are rumors that the city lord of Bering City lives up to his lavish lifestyle every day, but he actually wants to cover up his activities by going out for fun and secretly looking for the treasures left by the Johnson family.

"The tax revenue of Bering City cannot support such expenses. Someone should be investing in the city lord behind his back and giving him funds to go out for fun."

…

The harmonious scene in the town is in sharp contrast to the chaos in Bering City. According to the information obtained from the local people, the owners of these manors all settled here three or four years ago.

It is precisely because of their maintenance that the entire town can be so orderly.

It seems that like Li Wei, they are all wizard apprentices hiding in the countryside, ready to stay for a long time.

Levi rang the doorbell of an exquisite foreign-style building, and rhythmic footsteps came from inside the house.

"Hello! Who are you? Do you have an appointment?"

A well-dressed butler opened the door.

"Gary Williams, would like to meet the owner of this manor."

Li Wei smiled and casually made up a vest.

The butler had a difficult look on his face: "Mr. Glinton's daily schedule is very tight. Sir, if you don't make an appointment..."

Just as the butler was mid-sentence, a young waiter hurried out and whispered a few words in the butler's ear.

The expression on the butler's face changed, and he quickly bowed and apologized to Li Wei: "The master is waiting for you in the living room, please come with me."

Li Wei nodded with satisfaction, and then took back the spiritual power he had radiated.

Mental power is the biggest symbol of wizards, and it is also an important way for wizards to identify each other.

Entering the western-style building, you will see the elegant decoration. Various oil paintings, handicrafts, and specimens are placed on the walls in an orderly manner, which makes people look very comfortable.

The furnishings in the living room are very elegant, in the style of the Byron dynasty, which is a favorite decoration style of nobles that has been passed down for a long time.

A well-dressed middle-aged man was sitting on a mahogany chair, with dignified features and aristocratic dignity.

When the middle-aged man saw Li Wei arriving, he immediately stood up to greet him and gave him an aristocratic salute.

"Welcome, my friend."

Levi returned the favor: "It's an honor to meet you!"

"Hal, please step aside. I want to talk to this friend alone."

The middle-aged man waved his hand and asked the butler to lead several waiters and maids out of the living room. Only the middle-aged man and Li Wei were left in the spacious living room.

"Let me introduce myself again. I am Abel, a third-class apprentice at the Elemental Tower Academy! Glinton is my alias in Bering City."

The middle-aged man reported himself to his family and performed a wizarding ceremony.

The Elemental Tower Academy, like the Academy of Fantasy Gardens and the Academy of Immaculate Valley, is a long-standing wizarding academy on the Coral Coast.

"Gary Williams, a wandering wizard from overseas, third-class apprentice."

Li Wei showed off his vest and returned a wizard's gift.

"It turned out to be a friend who came across the ocean."

Abel looked very clear. Only a ghost could believe that he could be promoted to a third-class apprentice far away from the ocean.

However, he was not prepared to expose Li Wei's lies. The weight of a third-class apprentice was still quite heavy, and it would not be wise to take the initiative to turn against him.

The two exchanged a few polite words and then got to the point.

“Any recent news from the Coral Coast?”

Abel has determined that Levi is a wizard apprentice who has just returned from a distant place.

"I only know that the fight over ancient ruins has stopped, and order on the entire Coral Coast has gradually begun to restore."

Li Wei didn't try to hide it too much and asked directly.

A glimmer of wisdom flashed in Abel's eyes. He was in need of help now. If he could win over the other party, he might be able to break the situation.

It's not important information anyway, it can be obtained with a little effort.

"The colleges have reached an agreement on the ownership of the ancient ruins, and everything is back on track."

Levi raised his biggest doubt since his return: "So what is the current situation of the Irving family? I heard that they are recruiting pharmacists."

Abel replied: "I heard that the patriarch of the Owen family fought with official wizards from other colleges while fighting for the ruins. He was injured and is now hiding in the Aegean City to recover from his injuries."

Levi nodded, it was almost as he guessed.

"Actually...all the wizard colleges that participated in the exploration of the ruins suffered heavy losses, and they had no choice but to sign an armistice agreement."

Abel squinted his eyes and used his mental power to convey a surprising message.

"Nowadays, major colleges say they have returned to their former appearance, but in fact they are all powerful from outside but good at work."

…

Hearing this, Levi was thoughtful, the news was more exciting than he imagined.

"If there is no rush, I suggest Mr. Gary stay in Bering City for a while and wait until the situation becomes clearer before leaving."

Abel gives advice.
