Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 1060 - 485: Silver Moon Hall Omen (Part 2)

At that moment, a sudden commotion arose outside the Divine Hall.

A group of temple priests hurried over, evidently drawn by the strange phenomenon earlier.

Seeing David and Sofia standing on the altar, they couldn’t help but reveal expressions of surprise.

"Who are you? How dare you intrude into the Silver Moon Hall!" a priest shouted loudly.

David smiled faintly and unleashed the power of "Charm Dance".

This is a mysterious witchcraft capable of manipulating minds, allowing him to easily control others’ thoughts and actions.

Under the influence of "Charm Dance," the priests’ eyes became dazed, as if they had lost their own will.

They obediently followed David’s instructions and disclosed the intelligence about the Black Wizard Elder Council’s spies planted within the Fur Beast Race.

"I see... the Black Wizard Elder Council has actually planted spies in the Fur Beast Race."

David pondered inwardly, "It seems they’ve been secretly conspiring all along."

Upon acquiring this intelligence, David decided to act immediately.

He departed the Silver Moon Hall with Sofia and the allied warriors to investigate the Black Wizard Elder Council’s conspiracy in the Fur Beast Race’s territory.

Along the way, they traversed dense forests and rugged mountains, finally arriving at the lands of the Fur Beast Race.

Here lay a vast prairie inhabited by various Fur Beast Race creatures.

However, upon entering the territory, they discovered the atmosphere was unusually tense.

"It seems the Black Wizard Elder Council’s plot has already begun," David said solemnly.

They carefully infiltrated the Fur Beast Race’s village, attempting to trace the spies’ whereabouts.

After a thorough search and interrogation, they finally found the spies’ hiding place.

It turned out they were a group of black mages disguised as merchants, secretly planning an attack on the Fur Beast Race.

"We mustn’t let their conspiracy succeed!" David said decisively.

Thus, he led the allied warriors in a raid against the spies.

After intense combat, they successfully rounded up the spies, uncovering the Black Wizard Elder Council’s plot.

As night fell, the Fur Beast Race Alliance camp was lit by blazing bonfires, illuminating faces full of resolve and vigilance.

David and Cynthia stood side by side at the edge of the camp, gazing at the endless mountains in the distance, filled with anxiety about the unknown.

"David, I always feel this matter isn’t so simple," Cynthia whispered, her gaze gleaming with wisdom, "The appearance of those black mage spies might be just the tip of the iceberg."

David nodded, agreeing: "Indeed, we must be more cautious. However, now that we’ve discovered their trail, we can’t just stand by."

At that moment, hurried footsteps interrupted their conversation.

A fox race warrior quickly rushed over, reporting a stunning discovery to Cynthia: "Lady Cynthia, we’ve found suspicious runes on the tribe’s ancient totem pole! Those runes seem like some magic marks, very eerie!"

Upon hearing this, Cynthia’s brows furrowed.

She immediately led David and several loyal warriors to the fox tribe, to investigate further.

When they arrived at the totem pole, they indeed saw those strange runes, seemingly alive, flickering with ethereal glow under the moonlight.

"These are the marks of black mages," David concluded after careful observation, "It seems these spies have not only left traces here, but also attempted to maintain contact with the Elder Council through these runes."

Cynthia nodded, a cold glint flashing in her eyes: "We must find a way to decipher these runes and see what messages they are actually transmitting."

Thus, she displayed the Nine-Tails Illusion Technique, a mysterious fox race ability that revealed truths hidden beneath appearances.

Under the influence of the illusion technique, the runes gradually revealed their true nature—a soul contract with the Elder Council.

Through this contract, spies could directly transmit gathered intelligence to the Elder Council, while the Council could control their actions through the contract.

"I see..." Cynthia looked at the revealed soul contract, already calculating in her mind, "David, we can use this contract to give those black mages a ’surprise’."

Upon hearing this, David’s eyes lit up: "You mean to use their own tactics against them?"

Cynthia nodded with a smile: "Exactly. We can deliberately let the spies send false intelligence to the Elder Council, such as ’Frost Wolf Royal City’s defenses are weak,’ luring them to dispatch a team to investigate. Then, we’ll set an ambush and wipe out their squad."

David clapped his hands and praised: "That’s a good plan! It exposes the Black Wizards’ scheme while also striking at their arrogance."

Thus, they began implementing the plan.

Cynthia used her Nine-Tails Illusion Technique to modify the runes left by the spies, skillfully embedding false intelligence within.

Meanwhile, David covertly contacted Liya, instructing her to lead the Desert Mountain Wolf Pack in setting up an ambush at the predetermined location.

A few nights later, a team composed of black mages quietly approached Frost Wolf Royal City.

Apparently drawn by the false intelligence, they came to investigate personally.

However, little did they know that they had fallen into the trap set by David and Cynthia.

As the black mage team entered the ambush, Liya gave the order, and the Desert Mountain Wolf Pack launched a fierce attack.

Caught off guard, the black mages were quickly surrounded by the wolf pack.

Following a fierce battle, the black mage team was completely annihilated, leaving no survivors.

While clearing the battlefield, David found a tattered book—a fragment of the Erosion Realm Book.

This ancient tome recorded forbidden knowledge on dark magic, crucial for researching the black wizards’ conspiracy.

"It seems our operation not only revealed the black mages’ espionage but also unexpectedly gained this important book," David said, filled with a sense of accomplishment, looking at the fragment of the Erosion Realm Book in his hand.

Cynthia smiled and patted his shoulder: "It’s the collective effort of everyone. However, we must not let our guard down either. The Black Wizard Elder Council won’t easily abandon their plans; we must remain vigilant at all times."

David nodded, determination shining in his eyes: "Rest assured, Cynthia. No matter what awaits us ahead, I’ll stand by your side and fight until the very last moment."

Within the Fur Beast Race Alliance camp, Cynthia alongside David and Reina sat around a map made from ancient beast hide, their eyes focused on the Erosion Realm Book fragment.

The runes on the fragment glowed with dark light, seemingly containing endless secrets and danger.

Cynthia took a deep breath, her gaze becoming exceptionally focused.

Slowly raising her right hand, her eight tails gently swayed behind her, emitting faint light.

This is the fox race’s most mysterious Power of Eight Tails, capable of constructing mirror space and turning abstract info into concrete forms.

"David, Reina, I need your help," Cynthia’s voice was deep and powerful, "I will use the Power of Eight Tails to project these runes into a three-dimensional star map, but this process consumes a lot of spiritual power. While I construct the mirror space, you must stay alert to prevent any unexpected occurrences."

David and Reina nodded, indicating they were prepared.

Cynthia closed her eyes, her eight tails began to spin, releasing dazzling light.

Gradually, a mirror space composed of runes formed slowly in front of the three, the complex runes seemed to come alive, starting to dance and intertwine in three-dimensional space.

As the mirror space stabilized, a massive three-dimensional star map emerged.

The star map was filled with flickering light dots, each representing a plane anchor point’s location.
