Wizard: Start with Biological Transformation to Grind Experience novel Chapter 99

Chapter 99: 007: William’s Undead Castle

High-level apprentice Snow stepped forward: "The apprentice brought back by the teleportation scroll has already awakened. From his description, it’s clear this was a trap targeting Miss. During their mission, they encountered the Black Wizard Organization, Blood Origin Cult..."

Snow succinctly recounted the events on Ghost Island as he had learned from Adam.

Yeager’s expression grew darker and more ominous with each passing moment.

What was supposed to be a simple low-level task had unraveled into such chaos: multiple mid-level apprentices, several low-level apprentices, countless followers, and even the high-level apprentice-class Ausen Giant Python... This was clearly a kill mission!

"That bastard! I should’ve left him to die back then, never should’ve brought him back!" Yeager cursed loudly.

The apprentices exchanged glances, everyone aware of whom Yeager was referring to, but no one dared to interject. A conflict at this level wasn’t a matter to be trifled with—especially now, if Miss couldn’t return...

Then, they’d be left at the mercy of that ’bastard’...

Yeager pressed further, "What’s the current situation?"

Snow replied, "According to reliable sources, not long ago, near the mission’s destination in Gray Town, a war broke out. Several local noble houses mobilized their forces. We suspect it’s related to Miss."

"From the latest investigation, it appears Miss and her team managed to escape. However, only two people made it out."

Yeager asked, "Who else?"

Snow’s expression turned peculiar: "An apprentice named Lynch Valen. I checked his records; he’s listed as a low-level apprentice. But in reality, he appears to be a mid-level apprentice. According to Adam’s description, their escape was mainly thanks to this apprentice. He seems to possess strength that doesn’t match his official rank."

Yeager narrowed his eyes: "Lynch Valen? Why does that name sound familiar?"

Snow added, "He received the Warrior Feather."

Yeager suddenly remembered, "Ah, of course, now I recall!"

He asked, "So now that means he’s the one protecting Miss, correct?"

Snow nodded, "That seems to be the case."

"Alright then," Yeager said. "Take your team out immediately. Whatever resources you need, you’re authorized to use. If necessary... even if it means breaking the rules, we must—no matter the cost—find Miss before they do!"

Snow replied, "Understood."

After a brief pause, he asked, "And about those human nobles..."

Yeager’s eyes turned icy cold, "Fools who dare meddle in the disputes of Transcendents—they’re courting death. If they’re so eager, then we shall grant their wish!"

After a pause, he declared without room for debate: "Kill them all!"

...

Not long after, Shadow Tower, Outer Ring District.

"Move! Clear the way!" A flurry of hurried shouting echoed around.

A swift-moving squad passed through Shadow Square—Black Robe Enforcers, Alchemy Creations, Elemental Lifeforms, Knight Relatives—all marching together. Leading the way were several Netta Apprentices, bearing the crest design typically associated with the Holy Light Cathedral.

Their expressions were solemn, their pace brisk, as if something urgent was afoot.

The apprentices gathered at the square eagerly began discussing the commotion.

"What’s happening? Why such a big mobilization? They deployed so many Black Robe Enforcers, along with Alchemy Creations, Knight Relatives, even Elemental Lifeforms."

"You don’t know? The eldest daughter of the Tavendish Family—she’s gone missing!"

"What? Seriously?"

"Absolutely, the news has been spreading rapidly. Supposedly, she was ambushed by Black Wizards while on a mission in the Human World. Her fate is currently unknown."

"Damn it! That’s a major event. Is the Black Tower Alliance trying to start a war with us?"

"Who knows..."

Listening to the chatter in the square, Subaru and Carl’s faces turned pale.

Lynch had spoken with them before heading off for this mission, so naturally, they were aware of the details.

Subaru frowned and asked, "Did you ask about it? Any news on Lynch?"

Carl’s expression wasn’t any better, "I’ve already spoken to Graham. He said he’d look into it, but there’s no news yet... Wait, there he is!"

At that moment, Graham came sprinting across the square.

Carl and Subaru hurriedly went to intercept him.

Subaru, visibly tense, asked anxiously, "Sooo? Young Master Graham, Lynch..."

"Let... let me... catch my breath..." Graham raised his hand to stop them.

After taking several deep breaths and calming his pace, he finally straightened up.

Carl and Subaru stared at him expectantly. _{freёwebnoѵel.com}
