Chapter 300 - Morton Levelled Up
On the first floor of Morton Magic Tower, a head commander in full black armor was trying to confirm Wizard Morton’s identity seriously. “Are you Wizard Morton?”
Wizard Morton did not resist and handed his wizard badge over. This was the procedure of a commission. Back in the days, he was also part of an adventure squad, so he was very familiar with how things would go.
This little squad seemed way too overkill. It was made up of 2 official Wizards, 3 commanders, and 7 intermediate knights. What treasure could they be delivering?
At first, Wizard Morton thought the delivery was from Abel, but this adventure squad had made him doubt himself. He didn’t Abel would have the power to send out such a powerful team.
“Who was the sender?” Wizard Morton asked the commander in black armor.
“Wizard Morton, the sender is anonymous. We don’t know who it was, but it isn’t from the human world. That’s all I know,” said the commander in black armor as he handed the Wizard badge back to Wizard Morton.
Wizard Morton bunched up his eyebrows. It wasn’t from the human world. Who could it be?
“Wizard Morton, this is the delivery. Give it a check. If it is good, please sign here!” Said the Commander as he handed a tightly sealed box to Wizard Morton.
The moment when Wizard Morton held the box, he could feel some slight wave of mana. This box was encrypted with a tiny magic circle. It would leave a mark as soon as it was opened, so he confirmed and said with a nod, “No problem!”
After the squad left the magic tower through the teleportation circle. Wizard Morton brought the tightly sealed box back to his 11th floor.
This box was already a decent magic object by itself; you would rarely see something like this in the human world. After having a close look at this box in his hand, Wizard Morton had come to a conclusion. From its style, it seemed like it was from the elves.
There were only 2 ways to open this box. One was to use brutal force to break it; another was to use the power of the will to carefully unlock it. Although this box could only record the opening one time, it could still be recycled.
As an intermediate wizard, Wizard Morton would not use his brutal force. In fact, probably no Wizard in the world would do this. He then examined the box with his power of the will. After he found the spot where most of the mana was concentrated, he began to pick with his power of the will. Then, the magic circle on the box disappeared.
Feeling a little proud of himself, Wizard Morton opened the box. Inside was a potion, with some soft fillers on the side. He then carefully took it out.
The potion was a gold ‘Healing potion.’ He knew this was a Healing potion because someone had etched the name in human language on the bottle. He could recognize Abel’s writing at first sight.
Although Abel had asked the Alchemy Union to deliver the potions for him, he still didn’t want to risk his safety by sending a dark gold one. If someone had seen this gold Healing potion, at most, he would just hear some rumors saying Master Bennett could make a gold Healing potion.
There might be a chance that these golden Healing potions could have special effects, so it was easy to make an excuse if he was caught. But those dark gold ones were different. They were far beyond anything Abel could comprehend.
Wizard Morton stared at the golden Healing potion in his hand, feeling deeply touched. His disciple still cared about him even on the run, and specially told someone to deliver these high-level healing potions to him. Potions were very rare in the human world. Most of the ingredients required were grown in the Double Moon Forest. If humans wanted to enter, they would have to cross the dwarf’s territory.
Only those who don’t care about their own lives would risk going into the Double Moon Forest, so no surprise there weren’t many high-level potions in the human world.
Since it was from Abel, Wizard Morton didn’t think too much and waste his kind intention.s Wizard Morton opened the lid and poured the Healing potion in his mouth.
As soon as the potion entered his body, it was like his body was plunged into a hot spring. Every single cell was screaming in excitement and began healing his body at a noticeable rate.
Not only the injuries he gained from this recent battle with elite wizards but the hopeless injuries he had long ago also begun to take a positive turn. As time passed, his body was slowly recovering.
Wizard Morton always thought he had a good perception of time, but now he could no longer clearly feel the speed of time. After 1 hour or maybe more, he felt like his body was fully recovered. Maybe recovery was not the right word. It was more like his body had returned to the way it was 50 years ago. All the old injuries and all the hidden injuries were completely faded.
By this point, Wizard Morton understood why Abel would send such an adventure squad to deliver a box with one potion. If he was to deliver a potion like this, maybe he would even add more defense.
Actually, Wizard Morton had mistaken Abel’s intention. Abel wanted to keep it low key, but how could his request be low key with his status. As soon as the elf alchemist accepted this mission, he had to give it his all and deliver the potion to Wizard Morton in the fastest way possible.
With this elf alchemist wealth, it was no surprise the best adventure squad in the Moon Guardian City would become his delivery team.
Suddenly, an unbelievable expression emerged from Wizard Morton’s face. A message was sent to him from his body. ‘Fulfilled,’ he had fulfilled his level 11 wizard body.
Almost immediately, the voice of Wizard Morton filled his magic tower with a hint of excitement. “I will ignite the defense circle until I successfully level up!”
Upon hearing Wizard Morton’s voice, Camille from the third floor and Carlos from the fourth floor quickly rushed out and exited the magic tower with their identity card. Other than the 2 locked up disciples, only Wizard Morton was left in the magic tower.
Mana rushed towards the 11th floor. Afterward, not a single bit of mana leaked out of the magic tower. By this point, those low ranking wizards outside felt something wrong as they realized all the mana had disappeared?
Camille and Carlos exchanged looks of joy and excitement outside of the magic tower. They also cared about their teacher a lot, but since they couldn’t do much about it, they could only continue to train hard.
Although they were shocked by this sudden news of their teacher leveling up, it was not impossible since their teacher had been stuck at level 11 for quite a while. However, deep inside, they also know this chance was extremely rare.
When the blazing sunlight of noon shunned upon Morton Magic tower, a strange sensation filled the magic tower and sifted outside, making both Carlos and Camille jump up in excitement.
Not only them, but the nearby Wizard Yveline had also felt this sense of level up from Yveline magic tower. When he arrived in front of Morton Magic tower, he could already see the huge body of Wizard Murthy standing.
Wizard Yveline asked gently, “Murthy, is it Morton?” but he already knew the answer fully well in his heart. There could only be one person that could send out such a powerful sense of level up, the level 11 Wizard Morton.
He was just surprised to see a miracle like this. Wizard Morton was basically hopeless on his path of progress and could only wait for death to come just like Wizard Yveline himself, but somehow Wizard Morton had leveled up before he died. Now Wizard Morton had gained another 10 years of lifespan. With this extra time, his training could bring him to new highs. Maybe even making a miracle.
