Journey to the Witch World

Chapter 142 Winnie's Death

Half an hour later, Enzo left Lilith's hut.

After paying 600 magic stones and signing a waiver agreement, Enzo was satisfied to get the Soul Bone Wand. With this high-level magic item, his combat power was greatly enhanced.

"Now I can fight even against ordinary third-level apprentices!"

Walking on the road paved with black slate, the apprentices around were in a hurry, many of them were injured, and they seemed to have just returned from missions in the wilderness.

The atmosphere in the academy was a bit serious, and some low-pitched conversations came from time to time.

"It seems that not only the skinning forest, but also the apprentices who were on missions in other areas were attacked!" The chip collected the whispers of the apprentices around, and Enzo keenly noticed something in the messy information.

It seems that some foreign forces have appeared in the Misty Forest in recent times.

Many apprentices who went out to perform tasks were attacked, and some even died. The academy obviously knew about it, but it did not take any action, so that the foreign forces became more rampant.

"What happened?" Enzo's eyes were filled with solemnity.

Walking along the stone road, he had unknowingly arrived at the living area. Enzo walked towards the dormitory, but suddenly saw a familiar figure on a bench in front of him.

"Jora?" Enzo walked to the bench and frowned slightly.

The figure sitting on the bench heard the voice and raised his head stiffly. His soul-destroying face was pale, and his lips were almost cracked, like a traveler who had lost all hope in the desert.

"Enzo. It's you." Jora spoke hoarsely, without a trace of luster in his eyes.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing Jora's state, Enzo asked hesitantly.

The two hadn't seen each other for a while, but Jora didn't look like this in his impression. I don't know what he had experienced. At this time, he was like a walking corpse without a soul.

"Winnie is dead." Jora was silent for a moment and made a sound like a knife.

Enzo was stunned, and the shy girl appeared in his mind.

"What's going on? What happened?" Enzo's face was gloomy and he was sad. He and Winnie didn't communicate much, but they were both from the Overseas Islands and had a certain friendship.

"Damn it! It's all my fault. If I were stronger, maybe it wouldn't have happened, and Winnie wouldn't have died in the Misty Forest to save me!"

Jorah's face was painful, and his hands were pressed on his head in annoyance.

After a while, Enzo learned what happened from Jorah's intermittent narration.

Everything needs to start seven days ago. As usual, Jorah's apprentice team went to the field to perform a mission. Several apprentices were from the Overseas Islands, knew each other, and had cooperated in performing missions many times.

Under the leadership of Captain Bourne, the mission was completed smoothly.

The apprentice team had no casualties, and they only had to return to the academy to receive their rewards. However, when they returned to the academy, they were attacked by a gray-robed masked man.

The gray-robed man who called himself "Dead Blade" was extremely powerful and had the fighting power of a third-level apprentice.

As soon as the two sides met, a fight broke out. Bourne initially planned to communicate with the other party, hoping to use the magic stone to calm the other party's murderous intention, but it didn't work at all. The Dead Blade was like a machine without emotions, coming completely for killing.

The apprentice team was simply unable to compete, and soon there were casualties. Jorah fought desperately, but was easily trampled under the feet of the Dead Blade.

Seeing that the apprentice team was about to be annihilated, Bourne resisted a spell of the Dead Blade at the cost of one arm, and Winnie also exhausted all her magic power to save her lover Jorah and released a spell that did not belong to her.

Thousand Trees Forest!

It was a powerful spell that was no less powerful than the Dark Fireball. Even a third-level apprentice had to temporarily avoid the edge. Bourne took this opportunity to rescue Jorah, but Winnie died in the Misty Forest because of exhaustion of magic power.

"If I had died, maybe Winnie would have survived."

A trace of pain flashed across Jorah's face, and his eyes were full of self-blame.

Enzo was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to comfort Jorah, so he could only sit on the bench and pat his shoulder.

"How is Bourne now?" Enzo asked after a while.

There were five people in Jorah's apprentice team, two of whom were killed by the Dead Blade, and Winnie, who died of exhaustion of magic power, only Jorah and Bourne survived.

"He lost an arm, and his strength is almost useless." Jorah shook his head, his face ugly.

Unlike Enzo and others, Bourne's wizard talent is not high. The reason why he can serve as the apprentice team leader is mainly because of his Sky Knight-level physique. Now that he has lost an arm, his strength must be greatly reduced.

"It seems that something is really going to happen."

Enzo murmured in his heart, and a solemn look appeared in his eyes. A large number of foreign forces appeared in the Misty Forest, which obviously infringed the interests of the Crow Phantom, but the academy was indifferent, and it was unknown what was brewing.

After parting with Jorah, Enzo went to the White Tower.

The task assigned by the mentor had been completed. He needed to hand over the head of the Snake Claw to Gustav. Although there was no reward for this task, Gustav, as a mentor, would definitely give Enzo some rewards.

"Hello, mentor." Following the shadow servant to the top floor of the White Tower, Enzo bowed and saluted.

"It's done so quickly, it seems everything went well." Gustav put down his hand and threw the test tube to the shadow servant who was his assistant.

"It's okay." Enzo smiled bitterly and told what happened in the forest.

Gustav listened, his eyes gradually became solemn. The snake claw tribe used the gray-scaled python to deal with Enzo, which was within his expectations, but the appearance of the vampire Lakasha made him frown.

"Even the people of Fang Blood Shadow appeared?" Gustav said coldly.

"The other party does have the blood of a vampire." Enzo nodded, and then hesitated and asked, ": Foreign forces appeared in the Misty Forest, don't the college plan to take care of it?"

Gustav stroked his chin and shook his head slightly, ": I don't know the specifics, but the college will definitely not let foreign forces get involved in the Misty Forest."

Enzo's heart skipped a beat and felt a little surprised.

Gustav is a formal wizard, as a core member of the academy, even he doesn't know what happened, so this incident may be beyond imagination.

After a moment of silence, Gustav raised his head.

He looked at Enzo and said in a deep voice: "The Misty Forest is not safe recently. Don't go out casually during this period. No matter what, those foreign forces dare not attack the academy."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a roar outside!
