Chapter 238: Mid-tier One Wizard
Aur slowly inspected his mental space, where around twenty-five percent was covered by the light blue mana, and he was quite satisfied.
With a thought, he mobilised the entire light blue mana sea and attacked the walls of his mental space. .net
Instantly, the walls started to crack one by one under the waves of the light blue mana, resembling a spider's web fracturing.
This process was relatively simple and easy for him to execute. With enough focus, it was basically impossible to fail, and his mana was sufficient for it.
In just an hour, the process finally concluded, and at this point, there was very little light blue mana left in his mental space. New barriers were constructed, stronger and sturdier than before.
"Let's use all the light blue mana and introduce the new mana," Aur thought to himself, his brows furrowed.
Instantly, Aur began to cast the spell Rock Skin rapidly consuming his light blue mana.
This was a spell that consumed more mana compared to the other spell, so it was appropriate to use it.
In just a short time, all the mana in his mental space was slowly rung dry, and with that, some slight injuries appeared on his body, which were instantly healed by his terrifying blood and Qi, and the properties of the golden blood, which accelerated the process to a visible pace.
"Not bad." Aur nodded his head in satisfaction. If it were an ordinary wizard, they would never dare spend their entire mana in their mental space.
With the mana rung dry, their physical body, which was linked, would be at best seriously injured, or the wizard might directly die from it; only Aur, with his strong muscles, could do it.
As for the ordinary wizard, they needed to go through the slow process of using the lower-ranked mana and then introducing the higher mana, making it polluted from the lower tier and slowly completely drying his entire mana in the mental, only leaving the higher tier.
This was a gradual and slow process that took at least a month to complete for ordinary wizards.
"Father?" Earl's voice trembled with uncertainty.
Aiken stood before him, his face devoid of expression, lost in silent contemplation. Had it not been for his father's sacrifice, using the elders as bait while he and some of the more talented members escaped, they too would have met the same fate.
"Should we flee these wildernesses?" Earl tentatively asked.
Hearing this, Aiken shook his head.
"Even with my strength, travelling out of these wildernesses is too difficult. Even if we do, we might be reduced to slavery, as the forces there won't allow a third-tier wizard to roam unchecked."
"What should we do then, father?" Earl asked, his confusion evident.
"We must go to the other village now. Almost half of the wilderness has already been occupied by the wolves. Our only hope is to seek refuge in the remaining two villages—the West and the North village," Aiken explained with an expressionless face.
"But... but the North vi-'' Earl tightened his fist, his nails digging into his flesh, causing blood to gush out.
Aiken gave him a stern look.
"For the sake of survival, one must sometimes put aside personal feelings and beliefs. What matters is the practicality of the situation and the benefits it brings. If you truly wish to survive in this world, you must either submit to the strong or become strong enough to protect yourself, and even then, humility is key."
"Yes, father," Earl nodded, his expression reflecting understanding. "So, are we heading towards the north village?"
"No, we are heading towards the south. The next target of the beast tide will likely be the west village, along with the numerous landlords who have settled there.
If we cannot withstand it, we will flee directly to the north village. And if even the north village falls, we will have no choice but to leave the wilderness altogether."
