Noland Lee sat silently in the passenger seat, quietly pondering a plan to maximize the gains from this situation.
He was in the “Breath of the Dead” state, taking the form of a skeleton.
With no flesh or skin on his face, others couldn’t see his expression change.
However, Philia could still detect his contemplative state.
She rolled her eyes and remarked:
“You must be plotting how to control me and seize control of the magic car, right?”
Noland Lee was startled, canceling the “Breath of the Dead” state, transforming back into human form, and looking confusedly at the displeased Philia:
“Huh? What? What are you talking about? Seize the control of the magic car? No, not at all.”
“Hmph. My mentor said that you wandering wizards are especially good at exploiting loopholes and taking risks. He told me to be careful and never let the magic car fall into your hands. You wandering wizards always have hidden motives, who knows what you’ll do with the magic car…” Noland Lee hesitated:
“No, no, I was just thinking about something else…”
“I think you’re a good person, not as terrible as my mentor thinks. That’s why I said this to you.”
“Yeah, I know, I understand.” Noland Lee nodded and spoke before Philia had a chance to say anything:
“Philia, look, up until now, my Lecturer Professor hasn’t dragged me into the Dreamscape. What does that imply? It means he knows I’m weak and not qualified to intervene in the upcoming events. I do have self-awareness, and
I’m proactive in avoiding trouble. I won’t make decisions without the Lecturer Professor’s orders. Even if he really wants me to seize control of the magic car to do something, I’ll consider our friendship, right?”
Philia blushed and awkwardly replied:
“…You’re right… I’m sorry; I got the wrong idea about you.”
“It’s fine, it’s fine, misunderstandings happen; clearing them up is what matters.”
Noland Lee waved his hand, then suddenly paused:
“Hiss… But, Philia, I have a few questions for you.”
“What?” Philia touched her flushed face and looked at him with confusion. “Are there any attack-type magical devices on this magic car?” He asked.
“No.” Philia shook her head.
Noland Lee asked again:
“So, if this magic car can withstand attacks from a Seventh Ring Wizard, when it’s moving at full speed, wouldn’t it act like an indestructible hammer, crushing enemies to bits?”
Noland Lee firmly believed in the principle of “action and reaction.”
When an object has strong enough defensive capabilities, it can become more than just a vehicle!
The magic car could become a mud truck!
After hearing Noland Lee’s words, Philia was taken aback:
“Huh? Using a magic car to ram a wizard?”
“Yeah, don’t you think that’s the only way us two weak wizards can deal with the roaming wizards?”
Noland Lee said:
“Think about it, if the Bone-mending Wand falls into the hands of the Night Spirit Cult’s wizard, and your mentor doesn’t send anyone to support you, what will you do? How can you stop the Night Spirit Magician with the
Bone-mending Wand from escaping? If you miss the chance to obtain the
Bone-mending Wand, how will your mentor pay the reward for capturing Samuelson?”
“Yeah…” Philia muttered.
Noland Lee gently coaxed her:
“We must make thorough preparations to prevent the roaming wizards from taking the Bone-mending Wand. This is crucial evidence of the Death Herald Guild breaking the rules and entering the Fission Wilderness. It must end up in the hands of the Elemental Judgement.”
“Yes, yes, you’re right.” Philia nodded vigorously, “So, what should we do?”
“First, we wait on the ground. Once we detect who has the Bone-mending Wand, we’ll drive the magic car to follow and ram the enemy from behind. I suggest that I drive, while you snatch the Bone-mending Wand. As soon as the Bone-mending Wand is in our hands, we’ll immediately return to Union City…”
Philia greatly agreed with Noland Lee’s proposal, continuously nodding her small head like a pecking bird.
“Yes, yes, yes, it is decided.. But…”
Philia’s eyes became more clear and alert as she looked at Noland Lee with caution:
“In the end, aren’t you trying to wrest control of the magic car from me?” “Um.” Noland Lee was momentarily at a loss for words, “It seems that way.” Philia looked him up and down and sighed softly:
“Fine, I’ll trust you this time. After all, you helped me kill the Young Raven and obtained Samuel’s mask, which makes you far more reliable than the other wandering wizards.”
“Yeah, that’s right- ‘
Seeing Philia accept his proposal, Noland Lee secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He glanced at the scene around the abandoned building and pointed towards the sky:
“Someone is coming.”
Philia picked up her telescope and checked:
“Yes, three people in total. They’ve used precious Magic Broom Summoning
Scrolls. They must have received definite information from the Lecturer Professor to come here as quickly as possible. Let me take a closer look; let’s see who these three are…”
After observing for a few seconds, Philia identified the three people.
The Death Series can be broken down into multiple branches, some of which are more common.
The “Night Spirit Cult” belongs to the Night Spirit Branch, in which there is only one wizard force, the Night Spirit Cult.
The members of this force call themselves “Night Spirits” and are adept in blood magic and death magic, similar to vampires.
The White Bone Branch focuses on bone magic and death magic and can be further divided into multiple sub-forces that specialize in bone magic..
