After lighting the Dream Incense, everyone retreated. The wooden box was placed on a stump, and wisps of white smoke rose from it, drifting upwards before quietly dispersing. A hint of doubt flashed across Carl’s eyes, but the next moment his eyes brightened, and his breath caught. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵 Suddenly, a white, plump creature resembling a silkworm larva appeared in the midst of the smoke. It wriggled its body, moving toward the Dream Incense. This creature is born from dreams; according to the Wizard’s Book, it is a being of the dream world. And the dream world is quite different from the real world. Blaze waved at a nearby guardian while casting witchcraft on him. "One-Circle Witchcraft—Ignore!" This type of witchcraft causes others to subconsciously overlook the target. Those affected by this spell, when moving among ordinary people, won’t be noticed as long as they don’t overdo it; many Wizards use it for clandestine meetings. Barby held his breath, silently approaching the wooden box. His movements were light and fast, like a gentle breeze quietly sweeping over the wooden box in the center of the area. The key was that there were no fluctuations of a Wizard’s spiritual power on him, which perfectly fooled the Dream Devourer’s perception. That also meant that the Dream Devourer was trapped inside the box. "Good!" Blaze’s face lit up. A single Dream Devourer could be used to concoct at least one Silence Potion, sometimes two or even three. Their goal for this trip was merely three potions. After packing up the box that trapped the Dream Devourer, he took out another new box and lit the Dream Incense inside. Carl’s gaze fell on Barby. He asked curiously, "Does this Knight possess a Duke’s Bloodline?" "Duke’s Bloodline?" Millie shook her head. "No. He was promoted to Legendary after receiving baptism from the Old Ancestor." The Old Ancestor Millie mentioned was naturally the Second Circle Wizard of the Cape family, that centuries-old entity. "A Second Circle Wizard..." Carl looked surprised. "Can he help a Knight break their limits?" "Yes!" Millie nodded. "Didn’t you know?" "..." Carl smiled wryly. "I really don’t know much." "Hmm, perhaps it’s because you’re too focused on practicing witchcraft that you don’t know much about the Knight Path." Millie didn’t dwell on it and explained, "A Legendary Knight represents an enhancement of life’s essence. To break through, one needs not only the foundation of a peak Great Knight but also the help of a higher-level existence." "Innate power hidden within, a Divine Blessing, the baptism from a Second Circle Wizard, or certain special potions..." The innate power probably refers to a Duke’s Bloodline. Carl also knew about Divine Blessings but hadn’t expected there were other methods. "Special potions?" Carl’s eyes twinkled. "Which potions can help a Knight break through?" "Does Mr. Karl have friends who follow the Knight Path?" Millie glanced at him sideways and shook her head as she spoke. "A Knight trains their entire life, yet always remains a mere mortal. When I was young and naive, I also befriended those without Wizard Talent, but now I understand that the only ones who can truly accompany us to the end are fellow Wizards." Her tone was very calm, not haughty, but even more cold and ruthless. Knights were not qualified to be friends with Wizards! Just like Barby in the field, even as a Legendary Knight, he was still just a servant of the Cape family. "Yes," Carl nodded. "I understand. Just... finding out." Finding out? Millie shook her head gently. It seemed he was still not giving up, probably hoping to help a friend break through to continue their friendship or romance. She had seen such situations all too often. "Potions that can help a Knight break through to Legendary require Origin Power. Even Second Circle Wizards are reluctant to use such potions for this purpose." The two instinctively crouched down, looking towards the Dream Devourer that had appeared again on the Dream Incense. If it weren’t for the fear of disturbing the nearby nightmare horses, Blaze would almost have burst into loud laughter. Two Dream Devourers, easily obtained. If nothing went amiss, the Silence Potions would be sufficient. Of course, the more of these things, the better. He placed another wooden box in the center, lit the Dream Incense, and stepped back expectantly. Not long after, another Dream Devourer appeared in the smoke produced by the burning incense, wriggling its body as it crawled toward the wooden box. Everyone held their breath. Once the Dream Devourer had crawled into the wooden box, Barby rushed out again. Carl’s heart suddenly clenched. It was as if an invisible string had been plucked; his skin tightened, his pupils dilated, and his heartbeat suddenly surged. Marian and Blaze spoke simultaneously. Their sharp senses as Official Wizards had also alerted them to the anomaly. Meanwhile, Barby had already pressed down on the lid. A dazzling burst of fire erupted before their eyes, the spreading brightness instantly blinding everyone present, including the Official Wizards! And Legendary Knight Barby, in the moment of the explosion, his body was torn to pieces by the immense force, utterly helpless. Carl closed his eyes, invoked the Zero-Circle Magic—Azure Wave Ward, and the lesser spell force field expanded instantly. Phantom Amulet—Dematerialize! Thousands of azure streaks of light suddenly appeared in the area, swiftly covering over a hundred square meters, with the two Official Wizards as the focal point of the attack. Carl, who was on the edge, was also affected. He was only caught in the periphery. The streaks of light, unaffected by the spell force field, penetrated the streams of water summoned by the Azure Wave Ward, slowed slightly, then pierced Carl’s body.
