Mythical Card Master: Start with the Knight

Chu Ming never showed up during the entire Mandala Tree King incident. In the end, Miguel died in the aftermath of the Mandala Tree King's screams and had nothing to do with him.

Chu Ming confirmed: "It is obvious that Ma Lin committed a heinous crime."

"In order to get rid of Miguel, he deliberately led Miguel into the territory of the Mandala Tree King, which indirectly led to Miguel's death."

"I'm just a passerby, and it has nothing to do with me."

Even if other apprentices knew that Marin went out to follow him, so what, would Marin dare to tell?

As long as he dares to speak, Dipper will immediately understand what Marin is thinking.

Therefore, Marin's crime of accidentally killing Miguel is certain, and now it depends on how Dipper will solve it.

If we go over now, we might still be able to watch a good show.

Chu Ming walked towards the stairs with a calm face. Several wizard apprentices met him, with strange expressions on their faces.

Obviously, they all knew about Miguel's death in the forest.

Although the whole thing seems to have nothing to do with Chu Ming, everyone knows it.

Allen once spread the news to the apprentice group that Chu Ming was going to the forest. These apprentices naturally knew that Marin and Miguel entered the forest to track Chu Ming, but the end result was that Miguel died in the forest, and Chu Ming came back safe and sound, and everyone in Ming knew there was something wrong.

Ignoring their strange looks, Chu Ming slowly walked up the stairs and disappeared into the corridor.

The thirteenth floor of the wizard tower, Chu Ming set foot here for the first time.

This is a gathering place for wizards. Under normal circumstances, if the apprentices have nothing to do, they usually won't bother those wizards.

After asking the slaves in the corridor, Chu Ming walked towards the laboratory where Dipu was.

Turning a corner, at the beginning of the corridor, Chu Ming vaguely heard a burst of angry curses.

"Marin, this is the second time?!"

"Teacher, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have taken Junior Brother Miguel out for training."

Marin's slightly crying voice sounded, and every word seemed to be filled with great pain.

"You...how do you want me to explain to Count Fernando!"

Chu Ming stood outside and listened quietly. After a while, Dipu's anger calmed down a little and he drove Marin out.

Marin walked out of the laboratory with his head lowered, the painful expression on his face put away, and he glanced at Chu Ming expressionlessly before leaving.

Marin's weird personality is really unpredictable, but Chu Ming believes that as long as there is a chance, Marin will not hesitate to take action against him.

But... so does he.

"Teacher Dipu, Narender wants to see you for something."

Chu Ming knocked on the door gently, and Dipu's irritable voice came from inside.

"come in."

After Chu Ming opened the wooden door and went in, he saw Dipu sitting on a chair and resting.

"What do you want from me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed Chu Ming's arm returning to normal.

The old wizard's frown slowly relaxed.

"Have you mastered witchcraft?"

"Teacher Dipper, please look at this."

Chu Ming nodded, chuckled, and stretched out his scarred right hand.

Mysterious purple flowers bloomed on the ugly skin, and a strange floral fragrance filled the air from above.

Dipper's face showed a look of satisfaction, "If I'm not mistaken, this is a mandala flower, right?"

"Sure enough, I can't escape the teacher's eyes."

"When Edel and I went to the dark forest yesterday to look for datura trees, we accidentally lost the raw meat we were carrying. We didn't dare to pick up the datura trees with our bare hands, but we didn't expect that on the way back, we saw a huge dead tree. The mandala tree was blessed with a bloodline medium.”

Chu Ming sighed, congratulating himself on his good luck.

After hearing this, Dipu frowned and looked at Chu Ming, "Did you go out yesterday?"

Chu Ming immediately apologized and said: "I'm sorry, teacher. In order to practice witchcraft quickly, I went out with Edel."

"But we were careful not to provoke dark creatures."

Dipu looked at Chu Ming deeply, then stood up and took a roll of parchment from the cabinet.

"This is the Lion-Snake meditation method practiced by our Lion-Snake sect wizards. Please study it carefully and ask me if you have any questions."

"Thank you, teacher."

Chu Ming took the parchment, and the history book next to him glowed with golden light.

【Lich Meditation Method】

[Quality: Dark Blue]

[Skills: Spiritual Meditation (full level), Spiritual Assimilation]

Seeing the above content, Chu Ming became excited, but his face still maintained joy.

"Work harder and strive to become a wizard as soon as possible."

After a few words of encouragement, Dipu drove Chu Ming away on the grounds of rest.

Before leaving, the old man looked at his back and said:

"Narende, I hope you and Marin can get along well."

"That's what the teacher said."

Chu Ming lowered his head slightly and closed the wooden door.

After leaving the laboratory, Chu Ming quickly returned to his room.

After thinking about it in his mind, he took out the roll of parchment.

"Lion snake meditation method, ha." Chu Ming showed a sneer, "If it weren't for the history books, I would have been kept in the dark."

"The dark blue lich meditation method is of quite high quality."

"But this spiritual assimilation can actually assimilate the spirit of people who practice meditation into a special existence."

Chu Ming thought for a while.

"What do these wizards want to do? It's a mental coordination test and a lich meditation method. Do they want to reappear the undead?"

Liches are the final form of necromancers and are a type of undead. As long as their souls do not die, they will never die.

The undead have existed in the distant era of the gods, but they do not belong to the Intinuit world. Like darkness, they come from outside the world.

The world after being engulfed by darkness is completely silent, without even any time or meaning.

To escape the darkness, they fled to the Intinuit world and became a part of it.

However, after the end of the Magic Era, the magic dissipated, and the soul fire of the undead was completely extinguished, turning into a pile of bones and being buried in the dark place.

"Without magic power, it is impossible for the undead to appear. What on earth do Dipper and the others want to do?"

Chu Ming frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't think of a reason.

After sitting quietly for a while, he looked at the meditation method in his hand.

"I don't know if spiritual assimilation will affect me, but there is no other meditation method now."

Chu Ming sighed, returned to the bed and sat up cross-legged.

"Only by improving our strength can we solve the problem."

"I'm too timid to move forward, so I can only die here."

Memorizing the contents inside, Chu Ming slowly closed his eyes and entered meditation.

Light blue light lit up from the spiritual world, and Chu Ming felt peaceful inside.

…

half year later.

In Dipper's laboratory.

Dipu put down the grinding tools and crystals in his hands and looked at Chu Ming, "Narende, you have been here for more than half a year."

"Yes, teacher."

Chu Ming nodded.

At this time, he was wearing a fitted gray robe, and the edges on his face became more prominent, making him look much more mature.

The gray robe he wore was modified from the pseudo-cloak used in the dark forest half a year ago.

This cloak was originally a magic item handed down from the Magic Era, and it was already on the verge of collapse.

Chu Ming had worn it in and out of the dark forest several times in the past six months, and had completely used it up.

However, the material of this cloak was very good, and it was warm in winter and cool in summer, so Chu Ming asked a servant who knew tailoring to help him change it into a gray robe.

Of course, the changes aren't just cosmetic.

In the past six months, he has meditated hard, his spirit has reached another level, and the quality of his cards has also ushered in changes.

[Wizard Apprentice Narender]

[Quality: Dark Green]

[Race: Human Race]

[Skills: Spiritual Meditation (Advanced), Thousand-Handed Mandala, Hand of Carrion]

After going in and out of the dark forest many times, he finally caught the blood medium he needed - the Carrion Ghost, and developed the Carrion Hand that was very compatible with the Thousand-Hand Mandala.

The hand of the corpse can exert more powerful power, and it also contains weak poison and plague, which can infect the mandala flowers it blooms.

When the two are combined, whoever they encounter will be unlucky.

"Time flies so fast."

Dipu sighed and explained to Chu Ming the reason for calling him over.

Dipu has been paying attention to Chu Ming's growth in strength, and since he has been in the wizard tower for almost a year, Dipu decided to let him and Edel be responsible for this month's outings and lead the slaves to nearby villages to purchase. Living supplies.

Almost every material purchase is led by an apprentice, firstly to prevent attacks by dark creatures, and secondly to deter slaves who want to escape.

It's just that Chu Ming's qualifications were still relatively low before, so others wouldn't be worried if he went out.

But now it's been almost a year, and it's time for Chu Ming to take over the affairs in the Wizard Tower.
