If he knew that his opponent was a high-level wizard, Silver Eye, as a mid-level mage, would definitely not try to capture him.

Furthermore, due to the nature of their profession and external pressures, high-level wizards are even rarer than Silver Knights.

“Darran School? Interesting!”

Su Lu smiled, “Your manipulation of metals, particularly your concept of mercury, is fascinating.”

As an semi-spellcaster, he could understand magical notes.

Moreover, he had also gained some understanding of this world’s ‘wizards’.

They were actually a generic term for spellcasting professions.

For example, Silver Eye, if he were in the Main World, might have taken office as a [Metal Mage]. In addition to this, there are [Element Mages], [Illusion Mages], and so on. However, in this world, the mysterious aspects hadn’t developed to such a vast and detailed scale, and all supernatural powers that were non-knight were attributed to ‘wizards’.

Particularly worth mentioning, was that Dragon I, suspected to be a [Dragon Shepherd] or a [Dragon Knight], was considered by the wizards to be an unimaginable ‘Witch King’! Yet the knights insisted that their founding monarch was an incomparably powerful knight capable of controlling a giant dragon!

“To be praised by you, sir, is an honor for our school!”

The Silver Eye Wizard proudly puffed out his chest.

“It even involves human body modification, changing nearly half of the blood into mercury. Such a crazy idea, I can’t believe you thought of it, and the key point is, you succeeded!”

Su Lu was tapping on the Silver Eye Wizard’s notebook.

It seemed that because of the ‘Twilight of the Gods’, pure element mages in this world were not popular, their combat power was too weak.

Therefore, the wizards chose a different path: the path of self-transformation. By transplanting some strong and strange bloodlines, a certain ‘quasi-magical’ ability was retained.

“This is the highest secret technique of my Darran School. Sadly, I could only complete half of it. According to the records and assumptions, if we can achieve the final transformation, perhaps the wizards of our school will become pure metal creatures, severing the previously known life form.”

Silver Eye spontaneously explained.

“Yes, hence it is crazy, but also potent.”

Su Lu smiled: “And I am more curious about the method you adopted to control such power.”

Being able to ascend despite the ‘Twilight of the Gods’, it didn’t just require top-notch innate talent, but also a very powerful legacy!

Specifically regarding this brutal body transformation and bloodline transplant, if there wasn’t enough strong mental power to coordinate the endocrine, anti-rejection reactions and other bodily elements, flesh decay would be the only outcome.

“Do you mean the Meditation Skill?”

Silver Eye found this odd, this advanced wizard, doesn’t he know about the Meditation Skill?

‘So it is this!’

Su Lu confirmed in his heart.

He was familiar with the Meditation Skill, it was a topic only an arcanist of the White Tower would come into contact with. Capable of promoting the refinement of mental power and swiftly restoring spirit, it’s an auxiliary method with fairly potent capabilities.

However, among the spellcasters of the Main World, it usually required you to be at least third level or higher before you’d come into contact with this aspect.

Unexpectedly in this world, the Meditation Skill was practically a basic skill!

‘Is it because of the Low Tide of Spirit, where active refinement is needed for advancement?’

‘Of course, it’s also possible that Meditation Skill is too precious in the Main World, locked under strict control by the major forces.’

Su Lu’s eyes flickered as he came to understand. His eyes suddenly brightened: ‘Although this world is in a trough, since there is the Dawn of the Gods, there must be some impressive legacies. Perhaps I can do well to collect them!’

He stared at Silver Eye, his face stern: “You led people to hunt me. Do you know why I spared your life?”

“I don’t know…”

Silver Eye shivered subconsciously in reply.

“I need your Meditation Skill!” Su Lu simply stated.

This was content not recorded in the opponent’s magical notebook.

“OK!”

Silver Eye readily agreed because the Meditation Skill of each school was different. The technique of his lineage was only useful for the magic of his school.

He couldn’t figure out what the other party wanted to do with this.

‘Is it really that simple?’

Su Lu gave him a stare, “Then you better explain it in detail. Don’t worry, I won’t treat you unjustly.”

“Alright!”

Silver Eye settled down: “The Meditation Skill of my Darran School is known as ‘Mercury Meditation’, mainly it is…”

Not only Su Lu, but also Ham and the other two who were observing from the side, and even the now awake Ali, couldn’t help but prick up their ears to listen attentively.

Unfortunately, their memory was limited, they soon realized that they couldn’t remember much, and quickly forgot what they heard earlier.

Even if they remembered the content, they who did not understand witchcraft at all, couldn’t comprehend it.

“So it’s like this…”

Su Lu, however, found this quite enlightening, but it was only inspirational.

Because he found that the Meditation Skill of this world was more like a spiritual or soul transformation. The Meditation Skill of a particular school would tailor the adept for magic cultivation of that school.

For wizards of other schools, it’s completely useless, in fact, it’s also quite harmful!

No wonder Silver Eye readily agreed to share, showing no reluctance.

‘The Meditation Skill I need should be of a universal type, otherwise, it would be better to recover by slowly resting…’

Su Lu rubbed his temples, looking at the rising sun on the horizon: “I am planning to leave, Mr. Silver Eye, where do you plan to go?”

“Me?” Silver Eye gave a bitter smile: “I’d like to follow you, sir.”

He was somewhat reluctant to return, fearing that the furious Earl would vent his anger on him.

If he refuses, the other party might directly kill him.

Moreover, this is a rare high-level wizard, the chance to learn by staying by his side is not something that can be found just anywhere.

“Us too!” Ham and the others exchanged glances and likewise chimed in.

“You want to become my followers?” Su Lu pondered: “Okay…but…”

He pointed at Ali who was tied to the tree: “I need you to prove your loyalty!”

Silver Eye and Ham exchanged glances, pulled out their weapons, and closed in.

“No…”

Ali tried to resist futilely, but abruptly, his desperate struggle became a high-pitched scream, startling a flock of gray sparrows in the forest.

“You did well.”

Su Lu rode a horse, looking at the four followers behind him: “Since you’ve become my followers, I won’t treat you unsatisfactorily…I will teach you the power of mystery, lead you into the hall of mystery, and perhaps… even further!”

As he said the last sentence, he saw Silver Eye’s eyes lit up abruptly.

“Thank you, my lord!”

Ruff immediately expressed his thanks loudly, fearing Su Lu would change his mind.

“All I ask is to follow my lord and learn some knowledge. After all… the barriers between schools…” Silver Eye’s eyes dimmed again as he spoke.

“Haha…Don’t worry, the school I belong to will not conflict with any other school, yet it can mobilise extraordinary powers!”

Su Lu laughed loudly.

“Is there such a magical wizard sect?” Silver Eye asked in surprise.

“Of course! Its name is…” Su Lu’s mouth curled up slightly: “Arrogant School!”
