Chapter 147 Challenge Cup Time: Showing No Mercy
Lin Wei silently steered the boat through a corner of the sea, trying not to make too much noise, and then listened intently.
"Everyone, give it your all! The start date for the Challenge Cup has been set, and there are still two years left!" A first-class wizard apprentice stood at the bow of the ship, waving his hands and shouting loudly to the crew members who were fishing for sea creatures. His face was filled with confidence and authority. "I am a prospective contestant. When I become a first-ring wizard, I will remember everyone's kindness."
"No problem." The crew members were overjoyed. Some of them jumped up excitedly, waving their hands in the air, their faces beaming with excitement, as if they could already see their wonderful future under the protection of a first-ring wizard.
They will most likely never become a first-ring wizard in their lifetime, but having a first-ring wizard as a backer means they won't have to worry about anything for the rest of their lives.
This scene takes place across the seas, mostly involving captains who are first-ring wizards, encouraging their crews to catch more sea creatures, then extract their resources to use in their organizations to make potions or exchange them for points as rewards.
"The Challenge Cup starts in two years? That's a bit tight." Lin Wei frowned, deep wrinkles appearing on his forehead. He opened his mouth slightly and muttered to himself, "I probably won't be able to become a first-ring wizard in two years. Right now, I only have a little over 4000 elemental factors."
"I'm worried that there might be someone at the peak of the first-class wizard apprentice level. Such a person would be a threat to me," Lin Wei said helplessly, shaking his head and spreading his hands with a worried expression.
A first-class wizard apprentice at the perfect level is someone who can break through to the first-ring wizard at any time. These people may have been stuck at the first-class wizard apprentice level for who knows how many years, even hundreds of years.
"Given the age of these wizard apprentices, they must have many strange methods waiting to be used against others. Even though my overall strength is very strong now, I can't guarantee that I can withstand all enemies." Lin Wei muttered to himself, his eyes revealing vigilance, his body slightly tense, as if he was ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.
Near Lin Wei's small boat, the members of the Natural Resonance wizarding organization, which had occupied his former fishing territory, spotted him. One of the crew members stared wide-eyed, his face contorted with rage, his mouth agape as he began to curse, "Why is that Turing Tower's little boat so persistent? It's back again!"
"Yes, this area can't accommodate two small boats fishing anymore." A witch stood with her hands on her hips, her eyebrows raised, her face full of anger, and she kept muttering to herself.
"Get him out of here, Master Parker!" a wizard apprentice shouted, waving his arms and looking anxious.
Parker, whom they were referring to, a first-class wizard apprentice, also frowned, veins bulging on his forehead, his hands clenched into fists, as if he were suppressing his anger.
The crew urged him on, but he watched the approaching boat with a fierce glint in his eyes. He then took out his magic megaphone, took a deep breath, and shouted, "You from Turing Tower, please leave. This territory is ours!"
Upon hearing the voice, Lin Wei was immediately startled, his body stiffening slightly. A look of confusion crossed his face, and his mouth opened slightly, as if he were thinking, "Is this coming for me? My original spot was taken by this small boat, and he didn't say anything. How dare these people yell at me?" Lin Wei's expression turned hostile, his eyebrows furrowing tightly, his lips pressed into a thin line, and his eyes revealing anger. "Is it because I'm alone?"
People don't offend me, I don't offend people.
This is Lin Wei's survival motto.
"Back in the human world, when I encountered people much stronger than me, I always kept my distance. But as long as I'm strong enough, I'll strike back hard against anyone who dares to mess with me." Lin Wei muttered to himself, clenching his fist as he spoke, the muscles on his arms bulging slightly.
"Besides, the Challenge Cup is coming soon, which is only two years away. If I find another place with abundant sea creature resources, the sea voyage alone will take up half a month." Lin Wei paused, a look of hesitation on his face, his mouth slightly open as if he was considering the pros and cons. "Moreover, once we reach a new resource point, there will definitely be many wizard organizations vying for positions, and we will still have to face these competitions."
"This land used to be mine," Lin Wei replied through the loudspeaker on his small boat, his voice firm and powerful. He continued to slowly approach the boat, which resonated with the natural sounds of nature, because only there could he catch more sea creatures. "You may leave now."
There were seven or eight people on the small boat with natural resonance. They almost burst out laughing when they heard Lin Wei's rebuttal. Some crew members clutched their stomachs, laughing so hard they were doubled over, their faces full of mocking smiles. Other crew members pointed at Lin Wei, their faces showing disdain.
"Who are you? How dare you spout such nonsense all by yourself?" The witch raised an eyebrow, glancing sideways at Lin Wei with disdain on her face and a slight smirk on her lips, as if mocking Lin Wei's overestimation of his abilities.
"Let us leave? What a joke! We wizards aren't known for our height. Why don't you people from Turing Tower seem a bit dim-witted? No wonder we've been losing contact with you." A wizard apprentice laughed, waving his arms and looking smug.
Captain Parker stood with his hands on his hips, his face equally unpleasant, his brows furrowed, and his eyes wide open as if they were about to spit fire.
He hadn't expected that he, a first-class wizard apprentice, was already being polite and courteous enough by advising this person to leave.
However, this person completely rejected their kindness and instead told them to leave.
How is that possible?
As the Turing Tower's ship drew ever closer, Parker gripped his wand so tightly that his fingers turned white from the force, and the veins on his arm bulged.
"You bastard, you won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!" Parker shouted through the magic megaphone, his voice filled with anger. "Then I'll just have to confiscate your boat. It just so happens that our boat only has enough fuel for another two months."
"Natural vine magic, vine coil spell." Puck began to chant, a fierce expression on his face, his mouth wide open, his voice deep and powerful.
As he chanted, a vine more than three meters wide began to coil around Lin Wei's small boat in accordance with the natural resonance. The vine was covered with sharp thorns and looked menacing, as if it wanted to completely destroy Lin Wei's small boat.
Wherever the vines passed, the seawater was stirred up into high waves, making a "whoosh" sound.
"Commander Parker, your vine spell is getting better and better." The witch tilted her head slightly, her face full of flattery, her eyes narrowed into slits, and her mouth was as sweet as honey.
