Chapter 329: Down the Well
Chapter 329: Down the Well
Heath asked in surprise, “You can’t fly there?”
The soul connection between him and Nina was more than 500 meters in the beginning. Later, as Nina’s soul energy recovered, she had already broken through one thousand meters. After he advanced to an intermediate Wizard… This distance had more than doubled. Now, Nina could fly several thousand meters away from him without any problem.
In other words, this well was at least a few kilometers away from the bottom of the well?
Heath lowered his head and looked down at the dark well for a long time… No, this well was probably not as simple as a few kilometers…
‘Forget it, let’s explore further down.’
After thinking for a while, Heath quickly made a decision.
Then, he took out a rope and tied one end of the rope to a tree trunk next to him. He put one end of the rope into the well and then grabbed the rope and slowly descended.
This was a retractable rope, a kind of creation-type Wizard tool. The rope itself was not long, but as long as it was supported by magic power, it could continuously extend and grow. After the magic power was withdrawn, it could quickly retract and return to its original state.
Although using the flight spell and the light feather spell, Heath could enter the well. The magic power consumption of these two spells was still relatively large. Magic power was the foundation of a Wizard’s life. He could not squander it recklessly just because he had advanced to an intermediate Wizard. It was better to save as much as possible.
The remaining two Apprentices looked at each other and quickly followed Heath’s footsteps, climbing down the rope.
“Light!”
With a short incantation, a few firefly-like light spots suddenly flew around Heath’s body and emitted milky-white light, forming fist-sized light clusters that lit up the dark space.
This was a spell created by Heath using the light spell (Light Spell] combined with the surround formula, (Firefly Light), which was specifically used to illuminate under such circumstances.
Looking at the light cluster that was circling in front of her, Nyssa could not help but ask, “Wizard, may I ask what kind of Wizard you
are?”
In the few days they spent with Heath, they had seen Heath cast many spells, and most of these spells came from different elements such as fire, plants, light, and activation.
It was a well-known truth among Wizards that quality was more important than quantity. Wizards had always only studied one or two fields, and it could be said that there was no one like Heath who could bloom everywhere.
Heath said casually, “I’m more interested in spells, and I spend more time and energy on them.”
This explanation was obviously a bit far-fetched, but it was not something that the two Apprentices could question. The two could only say, “So that’s the case…”
Nyssa smiled and said, “Sir Wizard, you are really knowledgeable, but why haven’t I heard of you before?”
At the level of a Wizard, every Wizard had a name, especially a ‘versatile’ Wizard like Heath. Logically speaking, he should not be unknown.
Heath explained casually, “I just joined Deep Sea Kiss not long ago.”
The two of them suddenly understood.
The Deep Sea Feast was related to the competition between the various Wizard organizations in the Golden Islands and even the division of resources. Therefore, it was not a new thing for some Wizard organizations to secretly go to other Wizard regions to look for external assistance on the eve of the Deep Sea Feast.
Nisse said, “It would be great if our Parris Academy could also have external assistance like you…”
Parris Academy was a medium-sized Wizard organization on the west side of the Golden Islands. Nyssa and Carrette were both Apprentices from this organization.
Heath understood what she meant, so he casually said, “If there’s a chance, I’ll help you get the Heart of the Sea.”
The two were overjoyed.
“Thanking Sir Wizard!”
“Thank you, Sir Wizard!”
Heath shook his head. “You’re welcome. Let’s focus on the dungeon first.”
From the clues they got, this dungeon was not a happy place. There were still many problems to be dealt with later, and it was hard to guarantee that there would not be a need for these two Apprentices.
The three of them continued to move down the well under Nina’s lead.
Heath was already very surprised when he found out that the tunnel under the well was more than a few kilometers long. However, when they really entered the well, the length of the tunnel far exceeded Heath’s estimation.
It had been a few hours since they had entered the well, but they still could not see the bottom of the well. It was as if the well was a bottomless pit.
“The tunnel of this well is too long, isn’t it?”
“Yes, it has been a few hours, hasn’t it? Why can’t we see the bottom?”
“Could it be that there is some magic restriction?”
The two Apprentices were discussing in a low voice. Their eyes would look at Heath from time to time, hoping to get an answer from him.
However, while they were puzzled, Heath was also very puzzled. In fact, when they had been descending for more than half an hour and still could not see the bottom of the well, he had had the same guess from the two Apprentices. He thought that some magic restriction had been triggered, causing them to fall into a circular tunnel or something like that. Similar spells were everywhere in the Wizard World
However, when he checked with magic, he did not find any restriction or illusion. This was really a tunnel of a dry well, and they were indeed still going down.
Even though it sounded incredible, this well was indeed dug to such a depth.
‘Such a deep well… Is this the power of the Gods?’
It was impossible for a deep well of such a depth to be done by humans alone. It was almost impossible for even an intermediate or advanced-level Wizard like Heath to do so. Heath only did a simple calculation. The amount of magic power required to do so was immeasurable. Perhaps only a Wizard at the level of the Stigmata level would have such an ability, which corresponded to the level of the Gods.
‘Stigmata…’
Thinking of this, Heath could not help but think of the large-scale Stigmata-level spell he had seen in the Bloody Battlefield. The power that surpassed all living beings was truly unforgettable.
Sooner or later, I will also master this kind of power…’
Heath silently encouraged himself.
They continued to descend the well.
After the three of them continued to descend to the bottom of the well for more than an hour, finally, Heath’s spiritual power felt a slight throb. That was the feedback from Nina in front.
Heath immediately stopped.
According to the information Nina had just sent to him from her spiritual tentacles, she, who was walking in front, had successfully seen the bottom of the well!
“What happened, Sir Wizard?”
“Why did you stop?”
The two Apprentices who didn’t know what happened were puzzled.
Heath turned around and said, “Wait a minute. My companion told me that she saw the bottom of the well.”
