Chapter 663: Third-circle! (1)

As a second-circle transcendent creature, the Iron-Winged Griffin was very flustered.
Because above it, a pterosaur with a wide wingspan and waving the power of wind and lightning was circling.
Griffins were very intelligent creatures, which was why they were used as mounts by powerful wizards.
The tactful griffin took the initiative to submit to Levi and avoid being beaten up.
Moreover, even his master had been subdued by Levi.
“I’ll have a flying mount in the future.”
Lindt had spent a lot of effort to get this griffin. It could be said to be the most valuable thing on him.
Levi sat on the griffin. The griffin flew very steadily, and very quickly, it was comparable to some low-level wizard airships.
Levi threw Lindt into Alice’s ring and took out his storage bags. After counting them, his gains were not bad.
70,000 Aether Stones and a third-circle Wizard Tool. Other than that, there were also some spell books and casting materials from the Ocean School of Thought.
“Not bad, one-sixth of Rex,” Levi muttered to himself.
There was no need to mention the Aether Stones. That Wizard Tool was the same thing as the cannon used by Lindt and Levi in the battle. There were mysterious and complicated runes solidified on it.
Without appraising it, Levi did not know what it was. He only knew that it was most likely a hand cannon similar to the Wizard World’s and had extraordinary power.
He planned to find an opportunity to sell it for money. This kind of third-circle Wizard Tool looked standard. It was far inferior to the Great Black Sky Curtain. Levi couldn’t be bothered to use it.
The cash in his pocket made Levi feel at ease.
The griffin flew quickly and steadily. On its furry back, the lady boss slowly woke up.
Levi had set up a small protective shield around the mother-daughter duo to prevent the Griffin from flying too fast and blowing Leah down. The lady boss looked at the smiling old man in front of her.
“Old Keg? Are you really a wizard?” She was in disbelief.
“I already said that I’m a wizard. You didn’t believe me.” Levi shrugged and said helplessly.
“But how can there be a wizard living in seclusion in this small city, chatting with mortals, drinking, smithing, and farming…” The lady boss recalled Levi’s actions over the years.
“Wizards are humans too. As long as they do something that makes them happy, it’s fine,” Levi said.
“Where’s that person just now? This seems to be his mount,” the lady boss asked.
“I killed him. Naturally, I took his mount,” Levi said.
The lady boss suddenly felt a little scared. The seemingly harmless and gentle Old Keg could calmly say something like killing someone.
That meant that Old Keg had killed too many people, and he no longer took it seriously.
“Will you punish us like him?” Once bitten, twice shy. After Lindt’s kidnapping, she no longer had any hope for a wizard’s moral bottom line.
As Lindt said, morality was just an excuse for the weak to protect themselves.
In this world, what mattered most was strength.
Wizards dominated the vast sea. They had their own circles and rarely interacted with mortals.
To some wizards, those busy mortals who were busy working for their livelihoods were just ants working diligently on the roadside for food and reproduction.
Therefore, it could be said that it was rare for wizards to consider mortals even after their cultivation level had increased.
“You have two choices. The first is that I will send you back to Mist City. The two of you will continue to live peacefully as mortals and live an ordinary life.
“The other is, if Leah wants to become a witch, I can find a reliable wizard for her as a teacher. From now on, she will become an apprentice wizard and enter the magnificent but dangerous Wizard World.
“It depends on what you choose.”
Levi asked.
“I choose the second option,” the lady boss said.
“Oh, you should have just seen the ruthlessness and cruelty of wizards. I thought you were completely disappointed in wizards.” Levi smiled.
“I’m very disappointed in wizards, but so what? I still have to live.
“I remember that when I was young, very few wizards flew over Mist City, let alone saw wizards chasing and fighting in the sky.
“However, from time to time, wizards would pass by the sky in a hurry or fight and kill each other.
“We live in a small city and are afraid all day long. I can feel that the world of wizards seems to have encountered some changes, so this world is becoming more and more chaotic.
“We are too lowly. So lowly that wizards can decide whether we live or die at will.
“That’s why I want Leah to give it a try. If possible, she should have the power to fight for her destiny than to do nothing.”
“Not all wizards are like that. The reason why you can live peacefully in this small city for so long and rarely suffer from the attacks of transcendent creatures is that you’ve never been attacked by transcendent creatures.
“It’s because, behind it, there’s a group of wizards who consider the overall situation and protect the wizard civilization. Wizards are also humans. No one is born a wizard.”
The lady boss nodded.
“Do you still need to make a trip to Mist City? If not, I’ll head straight to our destination,” Levi said.
“There’s no need. Old Keg… Wizard Lord.” Realizing that calling Old Keg again might be disrespectful to the wizard, the lady boss suddenly changed her words and said with a flustered expression..
