The strongest magician who started as a hunter

In a dark space.

A black hole wrapped in a white aperture rotates silently.

Roads are like white spots of ink, spread randomly on the dark background fabric, forming this space that looks like an infinite universe.

There is no dazzling sun, no bright stars, no stars... except for the only black hole, there are no extra stars.

It looks a little monotonous.

And here is the inside of the "realm" of worry.

The black dagger was pulled into the field together.

The mysterious existence within it began to actively release black gas the moment it sensed changes in the external environment, hiding the blade in the sphere formed by the gathering of black gas.

Tentacle-like black gas grew out of it.

It looks like... it seems like a stressed cat, deliberately inflating its body to dissuade enemies who are trying to attack.

However, this comes with the complete closure of the field.

What follows is a mental attack targeting all aspects of consciousness, thinking, and cognition!

As long as there is a collection of consciousness, due to the characteristics of the field, it will be forced to receive a large amount of and dense useless information, causing the thinking itself to fall into a state of near stagnation!

Perhaps because of the blessing of 'rules', even the group of consciousness hidden in the black dagger was obviously not immune.

Just for a moment!

The black energy with tentacles began to dissipate.

The black short knife hidden inside was also exposed, and the original red lines on the blade gradually became dull.

Probably because of this, he fell into sleep.

However, only a few minutes later.

The "field" that has not been completely constructed yet suddenly collapsed, and cracks appeared out of thin air from the surrounding void.

After a while, the ink-colored domain space shattered.

"Sure enough, there are still many shortcomings."

Worry felt a little tired after a long time, his brain was slightly hot, and his body briefly entered a special state called 'surgical fusion' because of the closed field.

In this state, You will be temporarily unable to use spells.

However, it will not affect his ability to mobilize spell power and use reversal spells.

"The domain... must be used with caution in the future."

Youmo ran the reversal spell, using the reversed spell power to quickly repair the hot brain, in order to speed up the 'spell meltdown'.

In less than a minute, the gap passed quickly.

…

Return to reality.

The large amount of black energy that originally filled the bottom layer of the ruins has basically dissipated, and the black short sword has become lifeless since it left the 'realm'.

"The ceremony seems to have been interrupted because of this..."

You used the magic technique to suck the black short knife that fell on the ground into the palm of your hand, closed your fingers, and applied a little force through the 'no lower limit', you can hear the crisp cracking sound from the palm.

"Crack!"

He opened his palm and could see several obvious cracks on the blade.

It was obvious that the strength of the knife had decreased.

And he did not use the black aura to repair the blade as before.

"Without the blessing of the 'rules' in that space, this knife is no different from an ordinary iron weapon."

You increased the strength of his fingers and easily crushed the blade in his palm. A large amount of black energy also overflowed from it, and then gradually dissipated into the surrounding void.

died.

Although it is strange to use 'death' to describe a short knife, You are sure that the consciousness in the black knife is weakening as the gas disperses.

Constantly getting closer to the dead thing... but always just a little short.

"At times like this, you really have to leave it to professionals."

You summoned the black cat. Needless to say, the latter opened its mouth and tried to swallow the last remaining black energy on the blade fragments.

Wait until the thought of eradication is over.

After You confirmed that everything was correct, he left here with the somewhat mellow black cat.

…

Shortly after.

You, Piyou and the others successfully "encountered" each other in a corner on the second floor of the ruins. After a friendly exchange and confirmation that each other's identities were not disguised as enemies, they were finally able to get together to explore the ruins.

After finishing the ceremony of the unknown organization.

The interior of the ruins became dark again, but the intensity of the guards also dropped a lot.

Overall, the exploration process went very smoothly.

You found a good-quality emerald-colored gemstone in a certain tomb, and Piyu and his team also successfully collected various treasures deep in the ruins.

A few days later.

The group of people, who had gained a lot, left the ruins safely with various data measured in the ruins and treasures.

This also made the rest of the team waiting outside breathe a complete sigh of relief.

…

After returning to base.

Piyu did not rush to study the various ancient treasures brought out like other members. Instead, he found a free time and invited You to have a private meeting.

As for the location of the meeting, it was extremely hidden... and was not chosen inside the base.

Instead, he chose Piyou's personal data storage room. No one except Mia knew the specific location.

now.

Surrounded by a pile of neat bookshelves, You and Piyou sat face to face at the tea table with hot tea on the table.

"Although you were introduced by Miss Bisiki...but your behavior in the ruins is really suspicious."

Piyu dragged his chin with his palm and asked straight to the point: "In addition to 'excluding thoughts', you should have other abilities."

You Wenyan chuckled and said lightly: "You should already have the answer in your heart..."

Piyou was silent for a while and did not ask any further questions.

Instead, he took out his mobile phone, propped his chin with one hand, swiped the screen with the other, and said:

"Although I don't know what your purpose is, looking at it now... it was really helpful when I was at the ruins."

Piyou pulled out a few photos from his phone, then rotated his wrist and brought the screen in front of You.

"These...are all done by you, right?"

On the screen, You can see several familiar scenes, especially the bottom of the ruins with a huge ravine.

He did not answer, but asked with interest:

"Besides you, who else has been to the depths of the ruins?"

"It's just me and Mia..."

Piyou's tone was calm, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you planning to kill people and silence them?"

"No, I'm just asking casually." You shook his head, "Besides, it's just a few photos that have little relevance to me."

"Even if I really wanted to silence myself because of something... it wouldn't be now, it wouldn't be here. Because that would be stupid and it wouldn't make much sense."

"It's better to talk about it. What do you want to see me for?"

"I want to invite you to join my team. In addition... it's also to confirm something." Piyu said.

"Confirm what?"

"Confirming whether there is an informant arranged by that guy Pariston in my team... No, I should say confirming who it is..."

You didn't expect Pi You to be so frank, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't you doubt it's me?"

"If it were you, you would be a little too clumsy." After Piyou finished speaking, he murmured thoughtfully:

"It seems like it's really possible..."

"Anyway, if nothing else happens, that guy Pariston should have known about our situation."

"After all, ever since I joined the Twelve Branch, I always feel like I can't escape his surveillance."

"So...you doubt Mia?" You asked.

"I didn't doubt her, I just happened to rule it out."
