Wizard: I want to be a top student

"I know something about human wizards. You advocate equal exchange, which I think is good." Seeing that Ivan didn't speak for a while, the old tree man Meg couldn't hold back anymore and took the initiative to talk.

"You mean you are willing to pay some price?" Ivan understood.

"Of course I am willing." Meg nodded heavily, and then it became embarrassed again: "It's just that many of my things were destroyed in the process of breaking into the lava, and now I'm afraid I won't be able to come up with anything that satisfies you."

As it talked, it groped around on its body, and finally took off the flower crown on its head, which was all blackened.

If nothing else, this is the only thing it can get.

"I have a proposal. I wonder if you are willing to listen to it?" Seeing the old tree man's reluctance written on his face, Ivan said.

"Human wizard, please tell me." Meg quickly retracted her hand upon hearing this.

"I have important things to do when I go to the underground world. This trip may be very dangerous. I may need a strong guard to protect me until I leave the underground world." Ivan continued.

"Me, me, I am quite strong when I am not facing flames and lava. If you don't believe me, just wait and see." Meg stood on the spot and shook her body a few times, and a ray of emerald green light emerged from her feet.

The light instantly enveloped its whole body, and even enveloped a large area nearby.

Another false lord!

"Will you be my guardian until I leave the underworld?"

"Yes, I am very willing."

"Okay, let's sign a contract."

Ivan drew up a contract on the spot and handed it to the old tree man. The old tree man signed it without any hesitation, for fear that he would regret it. Yi Wen confirmed it was correct and felt speechless in his heart.

He figured it out.

Even though the old tree man is old and has lived for countless years, in essence, he is an honest person.

The old tree man completely ignored the fact that there was no specific number of years in the contract, and only agreed that it would last until he left the underground world. If he did not leave, the old tree man would have to be a guard for who knows how many years.

"You can call me 'Wizard Yiwen', they are ze ants and flaming scorpions."

"I have made a note of it. When we go underground, we will protect your safety, Wizard Yiwen."

"Come on board."

Afterwards, Ivan took the lead in boarding the lava boat transformed by the Flame Scorpion, and Meg and Zeyi quickly followed.

The portal of the lava boat closed quickly and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving no gap.

"Wizard Yiwen, shall we set off?"

"Set off."

"Okay, you guys sit tight and leave the rest to me, Yan Scorpion."

Accompanied by the splashing sound of entering the water, the lava boat sailed forward while sinking into the underground river of lava.

Both created by the 'semi-biological construction technique', the lava boat is the same as the sun golden boat. The inside of the boat is strangely transparent, giving people the same feeling.

At this moment, they seemed to be sitting inside a ball of orange-red lava. The scenery outside the ship was clearly visible, but the range of vision was limited.

The molten water inside and outside the ship is very close, but the hot temperature cannot be felt.

"It's so good, so good. It's the first time we've come into the lava so safely. This time we will definitely reach the underground world." Meg kept looking around, the joy on her face was beyond words.

"Of course, Wizard Yiwen has been fully prepared for this, and has been preparing for half a year." Ze Yan agreed.

"Half a year?" Meg's eyes widened as she stared at Ivan's back.

"Absolutely." Ze Yan didn't know why.

"I-I've been preparing for a hundred years," Meg murmured.

"Hundreds of years! Then what have you prepared?" Ze Yan also widened his eyes.

"I - hey! Just don't tell me." Meg became a little downcast.

Zeyi understood this. After all, a tree man would be restrained from crossing the lava, and it was an old tree man whose brain didn't seem to work very well.

Meg seemed to be an optimistic person, and she regained her spirits after a while and focused her attention on her surroundings.

What it knew was that the underground river just now was not difficult to cross, and the lava channel now was not difficult to sneak through.

The difficulty lies in the faults at the back. The faults are filled with lava of different colors and there are floating lava stones blocking the path. That is the main habitat of lava creatures.

Once traces are exposed, they will inevitably be attacked by lava creatures.

The lava creatures will then become endless, fighting off one followed by two more until the lava lord is enraged. For hundreds of years, it has been lying there, returning in vain every time and bringing back a miserable state.

"Be careful here, there may be a lava lord."

Not long after, the lava ship arrived at the first fault, and Meg couldn't help but give a warning.

The so-called 'fault' is a place where no mountain walls can be seen at all. There is only molten lava in the sight, which is orange-red, red-red, blue, green, etc. The colors are colorful, magnificent and dangerous.

Ivan could clearly see that the reason why the molten magma had different colors was that various metals or other substances were melted in it.

If it were in another place, he would definitely collect some.

The lava boat sneaked for a long distance in the fault, and suddenly a beast's shadow appeared in the line of sight, which made everyone on the boat feel frightened. Even the Flame Scorpion himself was affected.

"Wizard Yiwen, what should I do?" Yan Scorpion has not experienced many things, and it is inevitable that he will not be sure when encountering problems.

"What else can we do? We should move forward as we should, and we should fight back as we should. You don't have to be afraid of it at all." Ivan said in a deep voice.

The lava boat originated from the underground magma, and it would merge with the surrounding magma. There was no strange smell, and it would only be regarded as the same kind by the lava creatures.

The lava giant lizard gave the fire scorpion a fierce look, and the fire scorpion did not show weakness and used its own momentum to fight back.

As expected, the two were in peace and passed each other.

After a while, they encountered another magma creature, and the fire scorpion did not show any abnormality at all, and it was also calm.

"Good! Great, it's really a good fire scorpion."

"That's natural."

Treating its own kind, the lava creature showed enough tolerance, and the fire scorpion came all the way safely until it drilled into the passage deep in the fault again. In the mountain wall on one side of the passage, Ivan found the signpost left by Jenny, and the direction was correct.

The magma of the second fault was mainly gold.

The temperature of the magma has obviously increased, and the Fire Scorpion is still like a fish in water in such an environment.

However, the breath of the lava creatures in this fault is also more fierce, which makes the Fire Scorpion sneak trembling, but in the end it is still safe.

The magma of the third fault is mainly white.

If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the last fault, and it is the most worthy of caution. Fortunately, as the lava boat continues to dive, it does not encounter many lava creatures.

"Stop!"

Seeing that it is about to cross the third fault, Ivan unexpectedly found that Jenny's signpost was sensed in the magma, which is a bit unusual and different from the prior agreement.

Under his instructions, the Fire Scorpion swam over slowly.

A floating lava stone appeared, and Ivan managed to take out a different signpost from it - with text attached.
