However, Jeming had to admit that the death of Amy and Victor left a scar on his heart that was difficult to heal.
Though this scar no longer bled, it still faintly ached.
Making him feel sowhat uncomfortable when conducting experints that required high precision and concentration, leading to frequent mistakes during his research.
Zzzzz—!
Accompanied by a pungent burnt sll, a preliminary modified Magma Giant experintal body ignited into a heap of worthless charcoal on the operating table due to a zero-point-zero-one-milliliter dosage error when he was injecting a Genetic Catalyst, causing its Energy Cycle to instantly collapse.
"Sigh..."
After once again rendering the experintal subject in front of him completely worthless due to his mistake, Jeming finally stopped his actions and sighed helplessly.
He knew that continuing to force himself to research in his current state would only waste ti and materials.
He walked to the side and reopened the Magic Network Terminal.
This ti, he didn't browse through those obscure pieces of knowledge but directly clicked on the task release platform of the local Nolun Academy on the Elorcia Plane—he intended to see if there were any suitable tasks.
Not to earn Points or complete any indicators.
He mainly wanted to go out and have a change of environnt to see if he could adjust his mood.
The task list refreshed like a waterfall, with various commissions listed.
So involved exploring remote Planes within the Elorcia Plane Community, collecting rare materials, and supporting academy construction.
Just then, a sowhat peculiar task title caught Jeming's eye.
[Hunt Mission: Kill Illegal Wizard.]
[Task Level: Second Level.]
[Acceptance Restriction: Only for Second Level and above Official Wizards.]
More information was unknown.
The detailed task description section was locked by permissions, viewable only after acceptance.
Jeming felt sowhat curious about the term "Illegal Wizard."
In a society as highly centralized and orderly as the Wizard Civilization, official recognition of "Illegal Wizards" actually existed?
To his knowledge, aside from the contract related to the Wizard Civilization signed upon enrollnt, all Witchcraft Artifacts engraved with the ditation thod also issued restrictions, and without relevant contract certification, they couldn't be activated.
Without the aid of initial ditation Witchcraft Artifact, it was impossible for a normal person to enter ditation, let alone beco a Wizard.
Yet under such tight safeguards, the existence of "Illegal Wizards" was still possible?
Curious, Jeming didn't hesitate much and directly chose to accept the task.
Quickly, as his permission was authorized, further task information surged into his terminal like tides.
This information included a detailed action route and activity track of the said "Illegal Wizard" previously monitored.
The file also attached an estimate of the strength according to the traces of destruction caused, made by the academy's intelligence departnt: expected overall strength comparable to a normal Second Level Wizard.
Hence, for caution's sake, Nolun Academy released this as a team task.
Its activation condition was a requirent for at least two Second Level Wizards to take the task in order to officially initiate it.
Coincidentally, before Jeming accepted, another person had already taken the task.
Now, with Jeming's addition, the task's activation condition was fulfilled.
Jeming glanced at the task's designated eting point: the Elorcia Main Plane, a new Nolun Academy Branch under construction.
As for the final deadline for the task assembly... Three days later.
"Such a short assembly ti, seems the academy really cares about this Illegal Wizard..." Jeming pondered as he rubbed his chin while looking at the information displayed on the screen.
He prepared briefly, switched the laboratory to automatic maintenance mode, and left several Magma Giant guards transford into Biochemical Beasts on the Purgatory Sulfur Plane, then directly sat on the laboratory's internal Teleportation Array.
Accompanied by a slight Space Distortion, the next mont, he arrived at the already budding new Nolun Academy filled with a sense of future technology on the Elorcia Main Plane.
For tasks like this, after acceptance, the Magic Network Terminal automatically starts the recording mode, primarily recording the Wizard's action trajectory.
Thus, Jeming was sure that in the mont he boarded the Teleportation Array, the other party should have received information about his movent towards the eting point.
Arriving at the assembly point located at the corner of the academy plaza, Jeming imdiately saw the person already waiting there.
Upon sensing the sowhat unfamiliar Soul aura, Jeming couldn't help but be stunned.
Because it turned out that the person was David, who had contacted him not long ago!
Of course, David's appearance now was sowhat different from what he saw during the trial and contract signing.
Back then, he was more like a barbarian living off raw flesh.
Now, although the wild aura on him had subsided sowhat, no longer resembling a brute, the appearance of wearing a set of pitch-black Heavy Armor covered in nacing bone spurs and Runes was still far from a traditional Wizard.
The main way Wizards unleash power is through Spiritual Power prying the lever of elental forces.
So in terms of attire, there's indeed not much restriction, whether liking being naked or clad in a chanical Body akin to a city.
However, generally speaking, indeed few people wear Heavy Armor.
Not that Heavy Armor is ineffective, in fact, Heavy Armor can use more materials, aning compared to sa Level Witchcraft Artifacts, it offers stronger defense, a more stable effect, and more space for Rune engraving.
Moreover, for Wizards also proficient in physical strengthening, Heavy Armor can serve as extrely effective armor and weapon during close combat.
The only downside is... Expensive!
One can tell by its size that a set of Heavy Armor demands more materials than a Magic Staff or masks, consuming far more materials.
The price of a complete Heavy Armor Witchcraft Outfit is two tiers higher than that of similar Level Witchcraft Artifact sets.
So not only Jeming, but other Wizards passing by also couldn't help but glance at David standing there.
He resembled a silent iron fortress, standing there quietly, emitting an icy atmosphere forbidding strangers.
To be honest, had it not been for that familiar Soul aura as heavy as earth unchanged, Jeming would nearly fail to recognize the "Tin Can" as David.
