Sixth Ring Wizard

Herag found a safe, deserted place and emerged from the ground. It was a small pit overgrown with weeds.

He glanced at the shadow of the city in the distance, took out a vial of Thousand-Change Potion, and drank it up.

His appearance quickly changed, transforming into a man with ordinary features, plain and unremarkable.

Such looks were very common in the Land of Dawn, the kind that would get lost in a crowd.

Herag selected a black robe without any insignia and put it on, completing the most basic disguise work.

Now Herag looked like just an ordinary wizard from the Land of Dawn, with nothing special about him.

After finishing his disguise, Herag continued using the Shadowy Corner to turn into a patch of shadow and stealthily approached the city.

Once the city was within Shenlan's environmental detection range, Herag stopped and carefully observed the internal situation.

The city also had a tall external wall, but it was just an ordinary city wall.

To Herag, the decorative meaning of the city wall outweighed its defensive purpose.

The gates at the city entrance were wide open, with only two people guarding them, the defense force very weak.

After observing these situations, Herag did not let his guard down; instead, he became more cautious.

A defense this weak didn't indicate the city's leaders were fools; rather, it showed their absolute confidence in their own power.

They didn't need to rely on the wall for defense at all.

This city was different from Silver Moon City; externally, it already had a huge wall defending against the threats of the pollution area.

Internally, there weren't as many external threats.

The city's internal security relied more on manpower and the Wizard Tower.

This city, like Silver Moon City, had many Wizard Towers throughout the city.

The shadow Herag transformed into circled to the other side, where there was no city gate and no one guarding.

After observing the situation behind this side, he found it was a densely populated residential district.

It was obvious that this area was inhabited by the poor, with low houses and dense buildings.

Many people lived in the small area, and the comfort of living was surely very low.

After scouting out the situation here, Herag continued forward.

This section had too many people, making it unsuitable to traverse by climbing over.

Although he hadn't found any Official Wizards yet, it was better to be cautious.

Herag moved on and finally discovered an area with not many people.

It appeared to be a market, very chaotic, presumably a place for city residents to sell and buy various things.

Herag approached the city wall, and seeing no one around, a shadow quickly climbed the wall and flipped over to land on the inside.

Once he landed, he quickly dispelled the Shadowy Corner magic, reverting to his original appearance and walked down the street like an ordinary person.

Once inside the city, he knew he couldn't use Shadowy Corner anymore, as there were many powerful wizards within.

If someone noticed him sneaking with magic, it'd be like having "I'm up to no good" written on his forehead.

Walking normally down the street wouldn't attract attention; who would bother checking on a passerby for no reason?

Most cities in the Land of Dawn didn't have a curfew, and many taverns in Silver Moon City were open twenty-four hours.

After observing outside for a while and confirming there was no curfew here either, Herag took advantage of the night to enter.

The most pressing matter now was to gather intelligence, find out where he was, and which Wizard Organization he was in.

The talisman stone was gone, making it inconvenient to look up information.

But since he was already in the city, Herag naturally knew where to gather intelligence.

Wrapped in his black robe, he couldn't help but shrink his neck as the cold wind blew by.

After walking two main streets, he turned the corner, and there was a tavern with lights on right in front of him.

A lamp hung on the tavern's door, emitting a soft, warm yellow light, illuminating this small area in front of the tavern.

Just as Herag reached the door and before he could push it open, the sound of loud chatter came from inside.

On such a dark, cold night, Herag didn't find the noise annoying, but rather a bit lively.

Herag pushed the door and entered, with a gust of cold wind instantly blowing into the tavern.

He quickly closed the door behind him to block the cold wind trying to rush in.

Herag dusted off the dirt from his body and saw the tavern was quite bustling, full of people either drinking or chatting.

Not many people noticed him; only a few glanced at him before withdrawing their gaze.

Herag looked just like an ordinary customer coming for a drink at midnight, not attracting any attention from these people.

The only one who paid attention to Herag was the server, a young woman in black stockings, who approached with a tray in hand and asked, "What would you like to drink, sir?"

When Herag first entered, he quickly glanced around and found that the drink varieties were similar to those in Silver Moon City.

He casually said, "A butter beer will do."

After ordering, Herag found a quiet corner in the tavern to sit down.

The server promptly returned, holding a tray with a butter beer, gently placing it on the small table in front of Herag.

Sitting alone in the corner, Herag drank silently, without engaging in conversation with others.

The others also didn't bother him; someone like him was common in taverns, with sitting alone in the corner to drink inherently meaning they didn't want to be disturbed.

As Herag drank, he listened to the conversations of others.

The tavern was noisy, with various sounds blending together.

Herag listened carefully, picking out the parts he needed from the mixed information.

"Solde City."

After listening for a while, Herag learned the name of the city he was in.

He then had Shenlan search the database for information about Solde City.

As expected, this city belonged to the Eye of the Storm.

Solde City was the most western city in the Land of Dawn, and a very large one.

This city was about five times bigger than Silver Moon City, with a huge population and strong internal power.

When Herag saw the massive outer wall, he knew this city wouldn't be small.

Small cities generally weren't worth fortifying with such tall and thick walls.

A map of the entire Land of Dawn appeared in Herag's mind, and he located the positions of Solde City and Silver Moon City.

The two cities were far apart, making returning difficult.

Herag didn't expect to return directly to Silver Moon City; just thinking about it made him realize it was impossible to have a direct route.
