PNB Chapter 130 Fragments of the Black Magic Weapon, Knight Without Form
Chapter 130 Fragments of the Black Magic Weapon, Knight Without Form
It's common for wizard apprentices to perish in the endless sea, never to return to their organization, regardless of status or background. The sea breeze howled, and waves crashed against the shore rocks, sending sprays of water high into the air.
……
At this moment, in the East Eighth District, atop Mount Flame, the headquarters of the Sons of Flame. Surrounding them are rolling waves of heat, and lava flows down the mountain intermittently, emitting a hissing sound.
The leader of the organization, the second-circle wizard Brega, sat beside the central crater, wearing a fiery red robe and with his hair somewhat disheveled.
He stretched out his rough, large hand and stuffed a spoonful of fresh lava into his mouth. The scalding lava steamed in his mouth, but he didn't seem to care. Then he gave orders to the group of wizard apprentices below.
"Two things. First, if you encounter a blue fish-like sea creature over four meters long in the Endless Sea, report it immediately." Brega paused, picked up the water glass beside him, took a sip of cold water, and continued, "Second, when you encounter Lin Wei of the Turing Tower, don't hold back. This arrogant fellow killed one of my Flame Children's men, and the honor of the Flame Children cannot be challenged. This guy is only a second-class wizard apprentice; he'll be easy to deal with."
"Yes, Lord Brega," a tall wizard apprentice knelt on one knee, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and said loudly.
"Lord Brega, if Lin Wei shows up, I'll burn him to ashes with flames!" Another wizard apprentice roared angrily, his fists clenched and veins bulging on his arms.
The wizard apprentices were filled with righteous indignation and were eager to fight, wishing that Lin Wei would appear in front of them and be killed on the spot.
"Okay, go down. I still need to do my research." With that, Brega leaped into the volcano, leaving only a whooshing sound before disappearing.
"Achoo!" Lin Wei was walking down the street when he suddenly sneezed again. He rubbed his nose and his body trembled slightly.
"Who's trying to harm me again?" Lin Wei was speechless. Ever since he came back, he couldn't stop sneezing. He frowned and his mouth turned down slightly.
"No, it could also be that they wanted to turn me into a blue marlin," Lin Wei muttered to himself, scratching his head as he spoke.
"Junior Brother Lin Wei, you're really easy to be targeted." Dora covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes narrowing into slits. Then she waved her hand and said, "We've arrived at the manor. I'm going to cultivate now. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." Lin Wei smiled, his eyes curving into crescent shapes.
He went straight to his own estate and went inside. The estate was shaded by green trees, blooming flowers, and filled with fragrance.
"What exactly did I manage to create?" Lin Wei muttered to himself, stroking his chin with a puzzled expression.
……
This is a dilapidated large ship, the headquarters of the Sea Knights. The surrounding waters are gloomy, with debris floating on the surface and strange noises coming from time to time.
Inside the captain's cabin, a dark, eerie shadow swirled around. In the center of the shadow, Lorther knelt, his body trembling slightly, and said to the black crystal ball before him with a fanatical expression, "My lord, my identity as a dark wizard has always been questioned, and my business in the East Eighth District is completely unable to proceed."
"Especially that damn Robert, I've cleared my name, but he keeps harassing me." Loser gritted his teeth, his hands clenched into fists.
"No rush, Lorther, you're a good boy. Keep lying low. This East Eighth District will soon be our dark wizards' testing ground. We've already infiltrated the Wizarding Council." On the other end of the black crystal ball, the faceless figure of an old man flashed by.
"Yes, sir. I can wait." Lorther was overjoyed, his eyes widening, and he quickly bowed his head.
"Hmm, you're a smart one. Our lifespan as dark wizards is inherently longer than that of white wizards. With this shift in power, the entire wizarding world will eventually fall into our hands. What we need to do is replicate the white wizards' patents and maintain sufficient patience." The black crystal ball spoke with an alluring tone, "This is a fragment of a dark artifact bestowed upon you. You can use it to deal with Robert of Turing Tower."
As soon as he finished speaking, a crack appeared in the crystal ball, and a palm-sized piece of black ceramic fell out from it. The crystal ball then vanished.
"Thank you for the treasure, my lord. Robert is doomed, as is his subordinate, Turing Tower." Losser was overjoyed, his hands trembling as he grasped the black pottery shard. He closed his eyes, poured magic into it, and felt the power within, a strange smile appearing on his face.
"Ah, what a wonderful feeling. Robert, you wait, after I finish my research, I'll make sure you're utterly terrified," Rossel chuckled.
His laughter echoed across the dilapidated ship, and the surrounding sea seemed to grow even more sinister because of it.
……
Lin Wei returned to his room and enthusiastically opened the gray knowledge page of the Rubik's Cube. The room was dimly lit, and the desk was piled with various books and miscellaneous items.

"My knight rank has disappeared?" Lin Wei's heart tightened, his brows furrowed into a deep frown, and his hands unconsciously clenched the hem of his clothes.
"What does 'Knight's Formless Body' mean?" Lin Wei asked curiously, his eyes wide and his head tilted slightly forward, as if that would bring him closer to the answer.
New information has emerged in the gray area of knowledge.
[A self-created cultivation technique, based on the six fundamental breathing methods, transforms extraordinary power into colorless and formless chaotic energy. This energy can simulate the power of all races, and requires continuous absorption of bloodlines to replenish its energy gap.]
A flood of information rushed into Lin Wei's mind. At this moment, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, his brows were furrowed, his hands were clasped behind his head, and his face showed a pained yet focused expression. His body trembled slightly, as if he was waging a fierce battle with the surging information in his mind.
Lin Wei sat as still as an old monk, constantly learning and absorbing. He sat cross-legged on the ground, his legs crossed, his back straight, his hands naturally placed on his knees, his breathing even and deep, the surrounding air seeming to ripple rhythmically with his breath.
Half a day later.
Lin Wei slowly opened his eyes, his gaze revealing a firmness and confidence. He murmured to himself, "I have pioneered a new path for knights, pointing directly to the source, which is the power of the knight's bloodline. For example, the Bloodline Inheritance Stone relies on the power of the bloodline to activate the bloodline seed."
"From now on, I won't be a Grand Knight, a Supreme Knight, or even an Epic Knight anymore. I only need to classify my strength according to the form of the Formless Body. Now I have the power of one form, which is a technique and also the future path of a knight." Lin Wei said as he stood up from the ground, dusted himself off, and stretched his stiff limbs.
