98: Chapter 98 World Coordinates

However, at this moment, neither The Old Turtle retreating backwards, the Delicate Youth, nor Dylan and the others noticed this figure that had appeared so abruptly.

They continued with their own affairs, paying no mind to anyone else.

Watching The Old Turtle continue to retreat, the Delicate Youth finally came to his senses and anxiously demanded,

"What are you doing? Why are you retreating? You should be fulfilling our contract right now! You cannot retreat!!!"

The Delicate Youth was clearly aware that if this Void Creature left, he would truly be doomed without a place to be buried.

Therefore, he no longer cared about being respectful and shouted out loud.

Upon hearing the words of the Delicate Youth, The Old Turtle immediately began to curse at him.

"F*** you! If you had told me earlier that it was the Wizard World, I wouldn't have responded even if you beat me to death. It's fortunate enough that I'm not causing trouble for you, and you still want me to fulfill the contract? Dream on!"

From the flustered and exasperated appearance of The Old Turtle, it was clear that it was truly furious.

"You Void Creatures are still the same, you haven't changed a bit. You break contracts as soon as you say you will, unlike us Wizards who abide by contracts."

Just then, a hoarse voice suddenly rang out.

Hearing this, The Old Turtle, who was still in a fit of rage, instinctively retorted,

"F***, where did this Wizard-sycophant come from, spouting nonsense with eyes wide open? Let's see if you can still say that when those bastards tie you to an experimental table. By then..."

But just as it said this, the words in The Old Turtle's mouth suddenly stopped. It seemed to recall something, and its body began to tremble.

Now it desperately wanted to know who exactly was standing behind it and speaking.

Its eyes rolled as it glanced backward.

When it saw the figure behind it and that phantom image hundreds of meters tall, its heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, finally died completely.

At the same time, Dylan and the others, as well as the Delicate Youth, also saw that figure through the gaps in the light beam.

How should one describe it?

Although that figure's physical size did not even match a single finger of The Old Turtle, the sense of oppression stemming from the level of life fell upon everyone's eyes, surpassing the pressure from The Old Turtle.

Even with The Old Turtle in between, that aura was incredibly soul-shaking, making it impossible to ignore.

And the moment they saw this figure, voices automatically rang out in their hearts.

Those voices were all calling out the same name: Stigmata Wizard of Phantom Nightmare Binding!!!

In the Wizard World, every Wizard who achieves the Stigmata level has their title inscribed within the world.

When Wizards see their forms, the corresponding name will ring out in their hearts.

As for the titles of Stigmata Wizards, they are not randomly chosen but are related to their respective abilities.

This point is mentioned when teaching the basics of the Wizard World, so Dylan and the others were not overly panicked when facing this situation.

But the Delicate Youth was not necessarily the same—no, he definitely did not know.

Because at this moment, he was already terrified by this sudden change.

Meanwhile, The Old Turtle looked at the Stigmata Wizard of Phantom Nightmare Binding, its eyes rolling around as it begged,

"Great Guardian Stigmata Wizard, I had no intention of offending the Wizard World. Just now was merely a misunderstanding. I wonder if you could allow me to leave."

"If possible, I will certainly sing of the Wizards' benevolence and majesty in my future journeys, letting the name of the Wizards spread to even more distant places."

The Stigmata Wizard of Phantom Nightmare Binding seemed not to see the rolling eyes of The Old Turtle. Upon hearing these words, the gaze directed at it was filled with mockery.

"Unexpectedly, you actually know about Guardian Wizards. It seems you are quite knowledgeable about the Wizard World."

Guardian Wizard is a special Wizard profession, just like the Expedition Wizard who specializes in expeditions, except their responsibilities are diametrically opposite to those of the Expedition Wizard.

Guardian Wizard, as the name implies, their duty is to guard, and the object of their protection goes without saying—it is inevitably the Wizard World.

This type of Wizard generally does not leave the Wizard World and does not take action; they only do so when something threatens the safety of the Wizard World.

As for how to become a Guardian Wizard, it is very simple. After becoming an Official Wizard, a Wizard can independently choose whether to become an Expedition Wizard or a Guardian Wizard.

Although Guardian Wizards can stay within the Wizard World, greatly increasing their safety, most Wizards ultimately choose to become Expedition Wizards.

After all, what Wizards yearn for most is the pursuit of knowledge, and the Great Expedition can satisfy this pursuit of theirs.

Hearing the words of the Stigmata Wizard of Phantom Nightmare Binding, The Old Turtle explained with a fawning smile, "Please forgive me, Guardian Wizard. I had no intention of prying into the Wizard World; I have just lived for too long, so I know a little about everything."

Hearing this, the Stigmata Wizard of Phantom Nightmare Binding nodded slightly and did not continue to dwell on this matter, but instead changed the subject, speaking with a playful gaze.

"Having given you so much time, you must have prepared yourself by now."

Upon hearing this, The Old Turtle's expression did not change. After all, based on its understanding of Wizards, it knew clearly that its little tricks could not deceive a Wizard.

Especially for a Stigmata Wizard who specializes in guardianship.

However, its previously still giant claws began to frantically gesture in the Void Realm at this moment.

After all, even ants have a desire to live, let alone The Old Turtle that has lived for so long.

It certainly did not want to lie on an experimental table, having its body sliced open inch by inch by a cold scalpel, being analyzed inch by inch until nothing was left, with not a single secret remaining.

At this moment, while it gestured with both claws, attempting to quickly break free from the Wizard World and re-hide into the Void Realm, it also tried to use words to delay the Wizard's actions.

"Great Guardian Wizard, I am willing to spend my future life singing praises for you, and I will offer up half of my body, only hoping that you can spare me!"

"I am even willing to hand over the world coordinates I have recorded from my past experiences, just to survive!"

Hearing these words from The Old Turtle, the eyes of Dylan and the others present suddenly lit up. The faces that had previously been able to remain calm could no longer hold it back, and their eyes all burst with burning light.

Those are World Coordinates!

If a Wizard wants to launch an expedition to another world, the most important and first condition to be met is to master the World Coordinates of that world.

Only in this way can Wizards find new worlds within the Void Realm, where there is no concept of time and space.

Otherwise, relying solely on the Eternal Sky City to search aimlessly in the Void Realm is undoubtedly as difficult as using one's hands and eyes to find a single hidden red bean in an ocean full of mung beans.

But with World Coordinates, Wizards can directly conduct ultra-long-distance expeditions through teleportation channels.

As for a brand-new world, the benefits contained within are irresistible, not only to Official Wizards but even to Stigmata Wizards.

In the Wizard World, in many popular novels, the protagonists all begin their rise after obtaining a brand-new set of World Coordinates.

Thus, one can imagine how great the temptation of a brand-new set of World Coordinates is to a Wizard.
