The silver-haired old mans body was already charred black, so his face could not be recognized.

Merlin scanned his body with Mind Power and immediately found a ring on the old mans finger. This silver-haired old man could be an Entrance-level Spell Caster. He might have only constructed one or two Spell Models, so he could have not been that strong. He was powerful probably because he had received some legacy from the Shaman.

Thus, Merlins aim was the legacy of the ancient Shaman.

Placing the ring in his hand, Merlins Mind Power directly delved into the ring.

There was a huge space contained in the ring. The silver-haired old mans ring was even better than the one Merlin received from the black-robed old man. The space in it was larger by several folds. Moreover, there were a variety of objects, filling up space in the ring to the brim.

In addition, other than a few strange potion ingredients, there were mostly precious elemental crystal stones and all sorts of stuff like Spell Casters notes.

Merlin checked out the notes randomly and found that it was the experience of a Spell Caster in Fire City.

Fire City was also a spell casters organization near the Dark Magic Region, as famous as the Abyss Fort and the Dark Magic Region. Since this note was in the silver-haired old mans hands, this showed that the Spell Caster might already have died in his hands.

The more Merlin looked at the things in the ring, the more he was surprised. This silver-haired old man could have stayed in many areas under the influence of spell casters organizations. Moreover, he had killed several Spell Casters before. These roaming Wizards did not account much since they were not wealthy. However, the Spell Casters in spell casters organization had all sorts of elemental crystal stones and potion ingredients.

These things were not of much use to the silver-haired old man since he was probably not good in constructing Spell Model. If that was not as such, his own ability would not be that weak.

Now that the silver-haired old man was dead, Merlin was the one who took over his belongings.

After searching for some time, Merlin did not find any Shamans legacy from the silver-haired old man. There were too many things in the ring and it would take a long time to find it, so he directly retrieved his Mind Power. He planned to search for it slowly after returning to the Dark Magic Region.

Merlin kept the ring properly, then met with Holmes, Ryllis, and Laurinkas gaze. However, they did not say anything. After all, the silver-haired old man was almost killed by Merlin alone, risking a great danger. Therefore, everything on the silver-haired old man naturally belonged to Merlin. There was no further discussion needed on this.

Thus, Merlin slowly stood up and touched his back lightly. A stabbing pain shot throughout Merlins body but at the very least the bleeding had stopped. This indirectly proved how strong Merlins physique was now.

Wizard Laurinka, Wizard Ryllis, are you alright?

Merlin looked at Laurinka and Ryllis, both looking pale as they were injured by Darkness Rays, just as Merlin, who knew how painful it was. With their weak body, it would take a long time to recover.

Were alright.

Both stood up and held onto their injured parts, seemingly still able to hang on.

The only one uninjured here was Wizard Holmes, but his expression was rather complicated. When Merlin returned the robe to Wizard Holmes, his expression appeared a little dark.

I lose more than I gain this time

Holmes mumbled softly. This robe cost at least a dozen contribution points. Even if they had completed their mission this time, they only received a mere fifty contribution points hence he truly lost more than he gained.

Following that, Wizard Holmes raised his head and shot a thoughtful look at Merlin. He said without emotion, The mission has been completed. I still need to return to my family, so Ill take my leave here.

Wizard Holmes did not even turn back. He immediately cast his spell and blasted the rubble which was blocking the cave. Bringing Ryllis with him, both left the cave together.

Merlin simply shook his head. He did not mind Wizard Holmes attitude. In fact, other than being a little arrogant, Wizard Holmes was a nice person.

Laurinka, lets go.

Merlin supported Laurinka carefully. When he was about to leave, Laurinka pointed to his back. Merlin turned around and saw the people who were tied to the rock pillars in the cave.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Merlin cast a few Fireballs at will and blasted the pillars to smithereens. The Elemental Swordsmen and Spell Casters who were tied up broke free and took deep breaths of air. It seemed that they were tortured badly on the pillar.

Lets go.

Merlin did not care about these people anymore. He had completed his mission and he might not meet these people in the future.

After going through the passage, Merlin and Laurinka finally walked out of the cave. Capace and Catherine were still waiting anxiously outside.

Wizard Merlin, did you see Wizard Pario and Father?

After Merlin had come out from the cave, he immediately approached Merlin and asked him about his father. Capaces palm was only slightly injured in the cave so he simply wrapped his injured palm hastily with a cloth.

Merlin pointed at the cave and said monotonously, Theyre in the cave. They should be fine.

Capace heaved a sigh of relief and respectfully bowed to Merlin. Merlin shot a glance at Catherine who seemed exasperated. Her arm was gone. This was a big blow for a nave girl.

Merlin did not say anything more. With Laurinka, they quickly left Donglin City. They planned to return to the Dark Magic Region to receive the reward of the mission.

Swish! Swish!

Two bright light glimmered. Then, Merlin and Laurinka staggered as they walked out of the Runic Magic Circle.

Merlin looked around and found that it was an empty land. He even saw the seagulls in the sky landing on the beach to search for food.

Finally back

Merlin shook his head as he smiled bitterly. Although the journey was smooth, they had wasted some time along the way. Unfortunately, Laurinkas injury worsened during the journey, so they had to stay a little longer on the way.

That large stone tablet of the Dark Magic Region still stood solemnly. Merlin could still recall clearly how shocked he felt when he first came to the Dark Magic Region and saw the black cat floating out from the stone tablet.

However, after spending half a year here, Merlin had turned from a newbie Wizard into a strong Six-Elemental Spell Caster!

Sigh

Just when Merlin and Laurinka approached the stone tablet, a black mist floated out from the stone table and turned into a spirited black cat.

Young Spell Casters, have you just returned from your mission?

The long tail of the black cat swayed lightly and it appeared elegant.

When Merlin saw the black cat, he could not help but smile, feeling rather warm seeing it. He walked a few steps forward and grabbed two Ice-type elemental crystals the size of a thumb each, from the ring. He threw the crystal stones at the black cat.

Meow!

The black cat bit the thumb-sized elemental crystal stones as its eyes brimmed with passion. Then, it crunched the elemental crystal stones and swallowed them.

Not bad. They taste really good. Young Spell Caster, the great Sir Didimoss will bring good fortune to you.

The black cat said without emotion, apparently satisfied with the elemental crystal stones. It still seemed to be recalling the delicacies it had earlier.

Merlin bowed slightly and asked softly, O great Sir Didimoss, can you not recognize me?

Hmm?

The black cat glanced at Merlin closely, shaking its head. A moment later, a light flashed across its eyes as it mumbled softly, Oh, youre the newbie Wizard half a year ago. Your name is?

The black cat could not seem to remember Merlins name, so Merlin replied softly, Wilson Merlin!

Thats right, Wizard Merlin!

The black cat raised its paw and pointed at Merlin. It continued, I didnt expect to see the newbie Wizard back then to become a Six-Elemental Wizard after half a year Not bad. The great Sir Didimoss is very satisfied with the elemental crystal stones, so Ill give you some gifts.

A black light shone on the black cats body. Then, the light flew straight into Merlins body.

Merlin was shocked. He did not expect this black cat to see through him with one glance. Nothing less expected of the spirit of Runic Magic Circle carved by the Great Wizard Fidel himself.

Moreover, according to the Spell Caster who welcomed Merlin then, Didimoss was, in fact, a unique living being. It was rather shocking to Merlin who knew a little about runes. Even Runic Magic Circle could produce life?

However, meeting Didimoss once again, Merlin had indeed sensed a rich living aura from it, much richer than that of the Dark Vampire Bat he met in the cave a few days ago.

When the black light on the black cat flew into Merlins body, he could not help but shiver for a brief moment.

However, some changes had occurred to his Mind Power. Initially, Merlins Mind Power could support six Spell Models but it was a heavy burden to him. Sometimes, it was even difficult to use his Mind Power at will. Now, after the black light was absorbed into his body, Merlins Mind Power had obviously improved where it had become smoother for him to cast a spell now.

The fact that it could directly increase a Spell Casters Mind Power was beyond Merlins comprehension. What sort of unique living being was this black cat exactly?

Wizard Merlin, you should go in!

Didimoss appeared a little exhausted. It turned into a black light and dived back into the stone tablet.

After seeing that Merlin was still stunned, Laurinka patted Merlin lightly. She commented with an envious tone, You only used two elemental crystal stones to make Sir Didimoss reward you. Tsk, tsk. Back in the time, there were Spell Casters who gave Sir Didimoss a bunch of elemental crystal stones but Sir Didimoss did not reward them whatsoever.

Merlin took a thoughtful look at the stone tablet, then bowed slightly. Although he did not know what sort of living being Didimoss was, it had obviously noticed that Merlin urgently needed Mind Power and thus, it increased his Mind Power.

Even if it was an intermediate Mind Meditation Spell, it would at least take one or two months for his Mind Power to increase by this much.

Then, Merlin and Laurinka took out their Dark Magic Ring and initiated the mysterious runes on it. Instantly, a pillar of light enveloped Merlin and Laurinka.

Both of them disappeared in the blink of an eye
