come down--

   After a familiar sense of weightlessness, Chaos's vision resumed.

  OM——

   casts a light spell in his hand, and a soft white light suddenly spills out, illuminating the surroundings.

   Colin looked around, and after a while, he let out a slight breath.

   What came into view was finally no longer the despairing gray and white cave room before, and the **** smell that had always lingered on the tip of the nose finally dissipated.

   But he did not relax too much, and his face still had a trace of solemnity that could not be erased.

   'McIntosh's potion...'

   While muttering in his heart, he followed the instructions of the voice that appeared in his heart and walked forward along the gray-white passage in front of him.

The light of the    Brightness Art can only illuminate a short distance of the gray-white passage in front of him, and the passage beyond the line of sight is still pitch black.

   The embossed vine patterns on the gray and white walls on the left and right sides, with the movement of the white light source of the Lighting Technique in his hand, elongated the dark shadow.

  Tattoo——

   There was silence in the secluded passage, only the sound of his footsteps echoed.

   Not long.

   He came to the end of the passage.

   A smooth stone door carved with blooming flowers appeared before him.

  Click.

   As he approached, the stone gate opened automatically.

  The faint blue light leaked out from the crack of the door and fell on his face, making his blue eyes even darker.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

  In the small room, at the top of the pyramid-shaped stone platform in the middle, a ball of light emitting a faint blue light was greeting him.

   "Long time no see." Colin's lips moved, his voice a little slow,

   "...Erika."

   But he still hesitated to call out the name.

   The familiar voice that suddenly appeared in the cave hall was Erica's.

   After she instructed herself to escape, she briefly told him about the crazy experiment called Mackintosh and his potion on the passageway that she had just come over.

  Mackintosh's experiment... He still couldn't calm down.

   He inexplicably thought of the apprentices who died in the rituals—the witnesses of those rituals.

  They didn't even know the truth until they died...

After    greeted each other, the room fell silent.

  Colin looked at the blue light ball in front of him, was silent for a moment, and said:

   "Nice to see you again, Erica."

   As if he felt that what he said was not straightforward enough, he added:

   "I mean - glad you're alive..."

   "I'm dead." Erica interrupted, her voice calm and unwavering.

   "I'm just a mutilated ghost...or, not even a ghost."

   Colin was startled, his eyes lowered.

   In this world, it is not uncommon to lose the body and let the soul attach to other things and continue to exist.

   There are even many wizards who are proficient in life transformation, and they will specially replace themselves with a more powerful steel mechanical body.

   He thought this was the case with Erica, maybe she had some adventures or something...

  Can ghost...

The    ghost is another case.

   It is the product of accidental birth after the death of the soul.

  Strictly speaking, although the ghost will retain the complete or partial memory of the original owner,

   But in fact it is no longer the original soul.

   The original soul has died.

  The ghost will no longer have the emotions of ordinary people, and the way of thinking is completely different.

   They don't know whether it is hot or cold, love or hate.

  The only driving force for living is the deepest obsession of the original soul.

   "After entering the dark forest, I failed to find a miracle."

The    crystal ball flickered, and Erica took the initiative to start talking.

   "Finally, got lost in a cave and died..."

   "I don't know how long it took, and 'I' was alive again."

   "Unlike the chaotic ghosts born from other weak souls, my memory is not blurred, and it is even completely surprising..."

   said here, Erica paused, and vaguely mentioned a sentence.

   "I was puzzled at first, but then I thought about the legends passed down in the family... Maybe, this has something to do with my bloodline."

   "In short, I am stronger than I imagined, and my strength has far exceeded that of a junior wizard apprentice, and I have even reached the level of an advanced apprentice."

   "Unfortunately, before I had time to fully adjust to the ghost's body—"

   "Not far from the cave, the tower spirit in the Mackintosh Wizard Tower noticed me, grabbed me, and prepared to swallow it to replenish its origin."

   "And then, as you can see, I devoured Taling in turn, but I also became broken."

  Colin silently digested the information in Erica's words.

   "So Colin, as you can see, I'm no threat to you, but can help you escape the impending destruction of the Mackintosh Wizard's Tower."

The    crystal ball flickered, Erica continued.

   "So what do I need to pay?"

   Colin asked directly.

   He stared at the light blue crystal ball in front of him, and already had a vague answer in his heart.

   "Do you still keep the letter I gave you back then?"

   Colin nodded unsurprisingly.

The    crystal ball flickered quickly for a moment, and seemed to be a little happy.

   "Very well, Colin, all I need you to do is to bring that letter and my body back to Ryan, the capital of the Holy Flame Kingdom, to my parents."

   "In return, I will let you escape from this impending destruction of the wizard..."

   "Not enough." Colin interrupted her.

   He took off the silver Triangle School badge on his chest and rubbed it lightly.

  Then raised his head, stared at the crystal ball in front of him with blue eyes, and moved his lips.

   "I need more from you."

   "...Yes, as long as I can do it." Erica replied without hesitation.

   "Tell me what you need me to pay."

   "I need knowledge."

   Colin's eyes were faint and he spoke softly.

The sound of    is calm, but for some reason, it reminds people of the deep sea...

   Underneath, I don't know how many undercurrents are hidden.

   The silver triangle badge in his hand was twisted and deformed under the constant force of his fingers, making a subtle sound.

   Then, he threw it aside and paused.

   He opened his mouth slightly and took a breath, and emphasized in a deep voice as if he was suppressing something:

   "...I need strength!"

   "Erika, since you devoured Mackintosh's Taring, you must have inherited the knowledge it stored..."

   "It doesn't matter if it is not fully inherited, even if it is broken or incomplete, as long as it is knowledge, I need it."

   "And anything else that brings power, witchcraft, potions, witchcraft crystals, strange objects...

  Everything, as long as it can bring strength, I want it all! "

   The light blue crystal ball was silent for a moment, then said without hesitation:

"no problem."

   "However, under the ravages of time, due to the loss of the source of Taling, there is not much left of the stored knowledge. In addition, I have fought and collided with it before, and now there is nothing left..."

   "It doesn't matter, just give me as much as you have."

   "Okay." The crystal ball said no more.

  OM——

   After a while, several blue-green light **** suddenly appeared in the room, and then suddenly dissipated, leaving behind scattered supplies.

   "Pick up the leftmost ring first, it's a storage witch." The crystal ball commanded,

   "Then put the white crystal ball next to the ring to me, and I will burn all the stored knowledge in it."

   "Yeah." Colin nodded and turned to pick up the storage ring.

   seems to be thinking of something, he suddenly paused, turned back and asked:

   "Erika... What did you mean by 'the wizard's tower about to be destroyed' earlier?"
