The Bizarre Wizarding World
Chapter 433 - 307: Another Person_2

"Now is not the time for reminiscing!"

Swoosh!

As his words fell, dark ghostly figures suddenly appeared beside him, rushing toward Colin and Marjorie.

At the same time, Atbolde lifted his fingers.

Swoosh!

Swoosh, Swoosh, Swoosh!

Countless twisted roots, like thousands of swords being fired simultaneously, shot through the fluttering snowflakes toward the charging dark monsters!

Colin's expression turned solemn, readying himself for battle.

Unfortunately... it was somewhat rushed, with not much information gathered.

However, just then, Yasi suddenly frowned and looked behind them.

Tap, tap, tap—

A series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from behind, very close.

Colin instinctively turned around.

A dazzling golden light was the first to catch his eye, followed by a beautiful blonde Witch.

"Lillian, senior?" Colin exclaimed, pausing even in his movements.

But the dazzling golden light did not pause; it bypassed them and fanned out towards the dark monsters behind them.

Lillian, seeing him, also expressed some surprise.

"Colin, you're not dead?!"

"I came out of the Treasure Vault smoothly and, after not seeing you for several days, I left the Elf Kingdom and only just returned here recently," Colin replied succinctly.

Now was not the time for catching up, and Lillian didn't ask further. She greeted Marjorie at her side and then focused her attention on the battle.

Colin likewise continued to gather information about the battle.

The fluttering snowflakes were unaffected by the impact of the golden light; however, the dark creatures shrouded in black fog seemed as if they had encountered a fierce wind, their speed suddenly slowing, and the black fog on their bodies continuously dissipating.

Lillian watched this scene, her brow slightly furrowed.

This golden light was the talent ability she had acquired after enhancing her Elf Bloodline in the secret vault. Currently, it dispersed onto each of the dark creatures, its power barely equating to First Rank Upper Attack Witchcraft.

However, the effect obtained was not as good as she had imagined.

These dark creatures, each probably possessed strength at least equivalent to the peak of First Rank Intermediate!

A heaviness sank in Lillian's heart as she looked up at Yasi Hidosh in the distance.

Having raced back from the far-off Sea Domain, her greatest worry was encountering the situation before her.

As a Second Rank Wizard, even though she herself, after enhancing her Elf Bloodline, was nearly at the peak of a First Rank Wizard, she still had no confidence in dealing with it.

Swoosh!

Swoosh, Swoosh, Swoosh!

At that moment, the vines shot by Atbolde finally arrived belatedly, and in conjunction with the golden light, they successfully eliminated those dark creatures.

Lillian watched this scene and let out a light breath.

Her grandfather's condition was poor, but better than she had expected; there might still be hope—

As long as... she took something out from her Storage Ring, her mind made up.

"I didn't expect you to have survived, Lillian."

Yasi, not minding that his painstakingly created monsters had all perished, just gazed at Lillian and spoke softly, his tone carrying an inexplicable significance.

He smiled, the curvature of his lips broad enough to expose all his neat white teeth, seemingly laughing, yet his speaking tone was as indifferent as drifting snow, devoid of any warmth:

"You are really ugly, nowhere near as much like your mother.

It's a pity... if you resembled Octavia more, perhaps I would have spared your life."

"And yet, you just had to inherit the look of your phony nobleman father!"

"I like the way I look now," Lillian calmly responded, then added, "My mother liked it too."

Meanwhile, she moved discreetly toward the twisted gigantic tree where Atbolde resided.

Yasi's smile faded, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

He gazed at Lillian, who bore a striking resemblance to Pulan, and flames of anger burned within him.

But soon, he chuckled softly.

After all, tonight, all these grievances would be settled once and for all!

Whoosh!

Several dark shadows suddenly appeared and blocked Lillian's path.

At the same time, more dark shadows surrounded the twisted tree where Atbolde was.

Their bodies were shrouded in a black fog that was evidently denser than the monsters before, and their aura was much stronger!

"I know what you are trying to do," Yasi looked at Lillian and sneered,

"Two months ago, you went to the Southern Sea Domain under the pretext of reinforcing the battle line, but I know your real purpose was to find a cure for Atbolde."

"I thought you had died, as all Elf Clan members are traitors, and that so-called Elf Kingdom has become a land of pollution."

Yasi paused briefly, then continued,

"But you have come back safely... so I guess you must have something in your hands that can cure Atbolde, right?"

"You plan to heal Atbolde while I am unprepared," he spread his arms and shook his head. "But how could I let that happen?"

Lillian's expression slowly turned grim.

She gazed at the twisted tree, less than a hundred meters away, watching her grandfather struggling against the dark monsters, and pursed her lips tightly.

Only Second Rank could combat Second Rank.

She had never planned to confront Yasi directly; instead, she intended to heal Atbolde and let her grandfather deal with Yasi, gaining a sliver of hope.

At the very least, under her somewhat recovered grandfather's lead, they could manage to escape the manor and the barrier.

Once outside, Yasi wouldn't dare to lay hands on them anymore.

Members of the same school secretly murdering each other were strictly forbidden.

They just needed to hold on for a moment, and the noise of the battle would attract the Third Rank enforcement members.

'Sadly, Yasi has already seen through my plan...'

'There's only one way left!'

Lillian took a deep breath and transmitted her message to Colin.

"Junior Colin, I will hold off Yasi. You take the opportunity to hand the crystal bottle to teacher Atbolde.

It contains the Ancient Life Tree Dew I obtained from the Elf Kingdom, capable of healing the teacher."

"Only Second Rank can fight Second Rank; this is our only hope!"

Having said this, without waiting for Colin's response, she released a dazzling golden light at the surrounding dark monsters.

The intense light blinded their vision, and she seized the opportunity to pass the crystal bottle to Colin.

They had once fought side by side in the Elf Kingdom, and she knew Colin possessed strength comparable to a First Rank Advanced Wizard...

But what Lillian didn't know was that during this short period, Colin's strength had undergone earth-shifting changes!

Taking the crystal bottle, Superbrain's thoughts flashed rapidly.

Weighing for a moment, Colin cast Silent and Invisible Shadow on himself and raced towards the twisted ancient tree with the crystal bottle.

He had initially been prepared to fight Yasi head-on together with Lillian.

But now that Lillian had successfully obtained an item from the Elf Kingdom capable of healing Atbolde, just as Lillian had planned, there was now a better option!

After all, although he held the dual status of a First Rank Advanced Wizard and a First Rank Knight.

But as for how far he had progressed in strength, and whether he could combat a Second Rank's Wizard, he was not really sure.

Partly because he had only recently advanced and had no suitable targets to test his current strength.

Also, he was unclear about the actual strength level of a Second Rank Wizard.

Observing for a long time, Yasi, the Second Rank Wizard, had not yet made a single move.

He just kept commanding those modified dark monsters to fight, so their specific strength was still difficult to assess.

Consequently, a direct confrontation was clearly the last resort.

Before that, he would try out the plan proposed by Lillian first!
