Chapter 384 Old Friends

At dawn, the bright sunlight shines through the window into the room, forming a light golden reflection on the ground.

Not far away, Enzo's eyelids trembled.

As if sensing the coming of dawn, the illusory crows circling around him drilled into the host's body, and Enzo slowly opened his eyes.

"Two months have passed, and the progress of the Shadow Corps' training has finally reached one-third!"

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Enzo's eyes flickered.

Two months have passed since the training of the Shadow Corps. The chip has been analyzing day and night, and with Enzo's efforts, he finally mastered the first transformation form of the Shadow Corps.

"Shadow Armor Form!"

Enzo stood up from the bed and chanted a spell in a low voice. As his mind moved, a shadow like black mist spread out from his body.

Then, the black mist shadow wrapped Enzo's whole body, forming a shadow-like armor.

As a second-ring witchcraft, the Shadow Corps can have three forms of transformation after being fully mastered.

The first one is the Shadow Armor Form!

Using shadows to form armor on the surface of the body seems to be very simple, but in fact it involves extremely complex property conversion.

"What a strange feeling!"

Enzo's eyes flickered slightly. After the shadow armor was worn on his body, it seemed to become a part of his body, similar to his hands and feet.

Swoosh!

As Enzo raised one arm, a shadow blade like black metal suddenly formed on his upper arm, wrapped in black mist.

"Cross sword!"

Enzo chanted in a low voice, and the shadow blade turned into black mist and shattered, and then condensed into a pitch-black cross sword, appearing in his hand.

After using the shadow armor form, Enzo can control the shadow armor at will according to his will and create weapons suitable for him.

Everything made by the shadow armor is like a part of Enzo's body. This feeling seems very strange.

"It's a pity that there is no chance now, otherwise I should test the combat effectiveness of the shadow armor form in actual combat."

Then, Enzo shook his head and removed the shadow armor on his body.

"The first form of the Shadow Corps has been mastered, and the next is the second form."

Standing in place, Enzo's eyes were thoughtful, and he said to himself: "The three forms of change correspond to different combat situations. After the shadow armor form is used, it is completely to improve my close combat ability."

"As for the second one, it is the Corps form!"

"Using shadows to create soldiers to form a Shadow Corps, this form is very suitable for small wars, allowing me to have the ability to form an army by myself!"

The essence of the second-ring witchcraft Shadow Corps is a witchcraft that controls shadow battles. Among the three forms of this witchcraft, the most famous is undoubtedly the second Corps form.

In history a long time ago, there was a wizard who relied on the second form of the Shadow Corps to drive the legion of shadow soldiers to destroy a kingdom by himself.

It is precisely because of this that the Shadow Corps became famous in one battle and left a terrible legend in the secular kingdom.

"In a sense, the second form of the Shadow Corps is somewhat similar to necromancy."

"However, the essential difference between the two is that the creatures summoned by necromancy are all consumables, while the shadow soldiers are derived from the power of the wizard himself. As long as the main body is not dead, the shadow soldiers are almost immortal!"

Enzo stroked his chin, and his eyes flashed with thought.

"However, if you want to master the second form of the Shadow Corps, you must first create shadow soldiers. But if you only rely on pure shadows to create soldiers, you can only get a group of shadow puppets in the end."

"So, if you want to get a group of shadow soldiers with wisdom and will, you must inject souls into the shadow soldiers when creating them..."

Dongdongdong!

Just as Enzo was thinking, there was a knock on the door, which made him frown slightly.

"Come in." Enzo said in a low voice.

The door was then pushed open, and Shirley, the housekeeper of the manor, walked in carefully. Seeing the unhappy expression on Enzo's face, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Didn't I tell you not to disturb me during my training?" Enzo frowned.

"I'm so sorry, Lord Enzo."

Shirley bowed and explained, "There's a visitor outside the manor, claiming to be entrusted by your friend to seek help."

"I didn't dare to disturb you easily during your training, but that person has been here for five consecutive days, and it seems that he has something very important, so I..."

"Someone is looking for me for help?"

Enzo raised his eyebrows and felt a little surprised. He had few friends in the academy, and his interpersonal relationships were pitifully simple.

"Who could it be?"

Enzo's face showed a thoughtful look, and people he knew flashed through his mind. He murmured, "Friends? Could it be Jorah and the others?"

There were almost no apprentices left from the overseas archipelago with him in the Dark Pole Region after more than 40 years.

Among them, only Jorah, Bourne, Misela and a few others could be considered friends with Enzo.

Myrcella was on an expedition in the Forest Spirit Plane, so it was obviously impossible for her to ask Enzo for help. So the only people who came to find her were Jorah and Bourne.

"Where are they?" Enzo asked.

"Waiting in the hall," Shirley replied.

Enzo nodded slightly, and after thinking for a while, he decided to go and meet them, so he got up and went to the hall, and soon he saw a girl.

It was a thin girl, wearing a new set of gray robes, with a reserved expression on her young face, sitting nervously on the sofa in the hall.

"Newcomers who have been admitted for no more than three years."

Enzo looked at the girl, and there was an extremely weak magic power emitting from her body, only at the level of a first-level apprentice.

Obviously, this is a new apprentice who has just embarked on the wizard's journey.

"This is Lord Enzo."

When they came to the hall, Shirley introduced the girl and said softly, "You can tell me what you have to say now."

The girl stood up quickly and made a very bad etiquette to Enzo.

"Hello...Hello, Lord Enzo."

The girl lowered her head, seemingly extremely nervous, and said, "My name is Ni Lan, and I am a first-level apprentice. Excuse me... Sir Enzo, do you know Bourne?"

"Bourne?"

Enzo nodded slightly and said, "Of course I know him. He is my friend. What's wrong?"

Upon hearing Enzo's answer, Ni Lan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Are you a friend of Senior Bourne? That's great!"

Ni Lan raised his head and said excitedly, "Senior Bourne was seriously injured in the mission not long ago and was almost dead. Only you can save him now!"

"Bern is injured? What's going on?" Enzo frowned slightly.

"I don't know the specifics."

Ni Lan shook his head and said, "But Senior Bourne's condition is very serious now. If possible, please go and see him as soon as possible."

"Okay, he's there, I'll go with you now."

Enzo nodded. Listening to Ni Lan, Bourne's condition seemed to be serious, so he decided to go over and take a look immediately.

Ni Lan didn't waste any time, took Enzo and headed towards the college.

"How long has Bourne been injured?"

On the way to the academy, Enzo asked, "What is your relationship with Bourne? Did he ask you to come to me?"

"Senior Byrne has been in a coma since he was injured in the last mission. It has been half a month." Ni Lan walked in a hurry, but did not forget to answer: "When I first embarked on my journey as a wizard, I was injured. Senior Byrne takes a lot of care of me, so I’m worried about his current condition.”

"Before looking for you, I have thought of many ways, but none of them could wake up Senior Byrne. I heard others said that you and Senior Byrne were from the same overseas island, so I decided to try my luck."

While the two were talking, they had already entered the academy.

Under the leadership of Ni Lan, Enzo soon arrived outside a courtyard. The location was somewhat remote and should be Bourne's residence.

According to the rules of Phantom Crows, newcomers who have just entered the school will generally be arranged to live in the dormitory, while third-level apprentices can apply for a courtyard.

As for the official wizard, after signing a contract with the academy, he will get an independent wizard tower.

However, after experiencing the wars between the three major organizations and the expedition to other worlds, Crow Phantom has ushered in the biggest era of change since its establishment thousands of years ago, so that the rules are no longer so important.

During the war between the three major organizations, the number of members in the academy dropped sharply, and after the Misty Forest was destroyed, the academy rebuilt a larger Misty City. As a result, the Phantom Crows remained sparsely populated for a long time. .

Therefore, as long as there are enough magic stones, even new apprentices can buy a house in Mist City without having to live in a small dormitory.

"plz follow me."

Ni Lan quickly walked into the courtyard, and Enzo followed closely behind. After passing through a courtyard, the two came to a clean room.

"Is this... Bourne?"

As soon as he entered the room, Enzo saw an unconscious figure lying on the bed not far away, exuding a bloody smell.

Enzo took a step forward and looked carefully.

The man lying on the bed looked to be about thirty years old, and Bourne's appearance could be vaguely recognized on his face with his eyes closed.

It's just that at this moment, his body has undergone a lot of mechanical modifications. His left arm, starting from the shoulder, is completely replaced by metal. The object like an energy pile on his chest has been completely extinguished.

But what really put Bourne into a coma was the wound on his abdomen. It looked a bit like the claws of a beast, leaving three long and narrow scars. Even though it had been bandaged with gauze, it still gave off a strong smell of blood. .

"This is……"

Enzo's eyes narrowed, and he stretched out his hand to tear off the gauze from Bourne's abdomen. The hideous wound appeared clearly in front of his eyes, and a trace of blood mist also came out.

"It looks like it's some kind of curse."

A thoughtful expression appeared on Enzo's face. He gently touched Bourne's wound with his fingers and frowned, "If I guess correctly, this curse should be attached to the weapon and extend to the enemy's wound when attacking."

Immediately afterwards, Enzo pinched a trace of the blood mist curse and rubbed it gently with two fingers. As the power of the curse was pinched, the blood mist seemed to turn into a crimson wireworm, twisting ferociously as if it wanted to get in. Inside Enzo.

"So violent?"

An unexpected expression appeared on Enzo's face, he crushed the blood mist curse with two fingers, and said with some confusion: "With such a manic curse attached to Bourne's body, if he was only a third-level apprentice, he should have died long ago."

Next to him, Ni Lan had a nervous expression on his face.

"How about it? Can you save Senior Bourne?" Ni Lan bit her lip and asked.

Enzo nodded slightly.

The blood mist curse is the main reason for Bourne's coma. Perhaps for a third-level apprentice, this curse may be fatal, but for Enzo, it is nothing at all.

As a second-level wizard, Enzo has too many ways to remove the curse from Bourne's body.

"Move aside."

Enzo spoke softly, and Ni Lan quickly stepped back a few steps to make room.

Then, Enzo put his hand on Bourne's wound.

With the traction of a magical force, the curse in the form of blood mist emanated from the hideous wound, and gathered together to form a strange-shaped flesh ball with red tentacles on the surface.

The tentacle flesh ball was controlled in the palm of his hand, and it seemed extremely violent, struggling hard, as if it wanted to return to the host's body again.

"Hmph!"

Enzo snorted coldly, and gently clenched his palm. The black flames burned immediately, devoured the tentacle flesh ball, and then turned into ashes.

The blood mist curse turned into ashes and disappeared, leaving no trace.

On the bed, Bourne frowned.

As the curse was removed, he showed signs of waking up, but because he had been unconscious for too long before, it was difficult to open his eyes.

Enzo took out a few potions and told Ni Lan to feed Bourne.

After a few potions were taken, a strange feeling spread throughout his body, and Bourne slowly opened his eyes.

"Ni Lan..."

As soon as he opened his eyes, Bourne saw Ni Lan with a nervous face, and said weakly.

"Woo! Senior Bourne, you finally woke up!"

Seeing Bourne wake up, Ni Lan's face suddenly became excited, and her eyes were full of joy.

"Enzo?"

At this time, Bourne turned his head and saw Enzo beside the bed. A trace of realization suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he said, "It turned out that you saved me?"

Enzo nodded slightly and frowned, "What happened to your injury?"

Hearing Enzo's question, Bourne lowered his eyes.

"Ni Lan, go out first." Then, Bourne used a mechanical arm to support his body and instructed Ni Lan next to him.

Ni Lan was a little surprised, but still obediently left the room and closed the door.

There were only two people left in the room, and Enzo dragged the chair next to him and sat on it.

Bourne leaned on the bed, a trace of pain appeared on his pale face. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Jorah has fallen."

Enzo raised his head, his face was surprised.

"Although even now, I am still reluctant to admit it." Bourne closed his eyes and shook his head, "But the fact is the fact, Jorah has already betrayed the academy not long ago and became a fallen wizard!"

"How could this be?"

Enzo frowned, his eyes suddenly looked at the wound on Bourne's abdomen, and said in a deep voice: "Your previous mission was to hunt down Jorah? The wound on your body was also caused by him?"
