After returning, Heath made some preparations, making potions, making magic scrolls, etc., and preparing various tools that might be used during adventure ruins.

A few days later, Jackman arrived as promised, and Heath briefly explained to Amy, then went out with him.

When we arrived at the dock, there was already a large sailboat docked here. It was a five-masted sailboat with a huge hull and nearly a hundred meters long. The bow part was a sculpture of a mermaid, which was well-made.

It docked in the middle of a pile of merchant ships, and looked like an ordinary merchant ship. Even the hull was covered with a noble family badge and a noble flag was inserted on the mast, which looked like an ordinary noble merchant ship.

However, Heath could easily feel the strong elemental fluctuations from above, and could easily see the runes scattered on the hull with the spiritual eye, just like a wizard ship disguised as an ordinary merchant ship.

At this moment, some men wrapped in headscarves and dressed in cloth clothes and dressed as sailors were transporting boxes of goods to the deck, looking like they were preparing for their sailing.

After Jackman brought Heath over, the sailors saluted one after another.

"Mr. Jackman."

"grown ups."

Heath noticed that the sailors had very ligated muscles and were burly. They could even clearly see thick calluses in their palms. They were all traces after using the sword. The identities of these people could be easily read from their breath, just like they were all knights.

Heath asked, "Did these knights go with us?"

Jackman nodded: "It's easier if there are knights in the wilderness to help us set up camps, right?"

Heath asked, "Where did they come from? Are they reliable?"

Some wizards will prepare some knights before the adventure ruins, collect wandering knights from the market, or force them with black magic. Most of these knights have no knight spirit and are not very reliable. Not to mention how much help can't be brought during the adventure, they may also pull their backs and even betrayal in times of crisis... Therefore, the wizards who died at the hands of knights have also happened. Anyway, Heath has always disliked taking these burdens with adventures.

Jackman explained: "Don't worry, I know what you are worried about. I don't like to bring strange knights on the road, but these knights can rest assured that they were all brought by Arza from his family established in the blood of the human world, not a wandering knight."

Alza is the wizard who is going to explore with them this time, and is also the discoverer of the ruins.

Heath said: "That's it, okay."

After continuing to move forward for more than ten steps, Heath finally met what Jackman called the wizard Alza here.

This is an old man who looks very old in his sixties and seventies. He has silver hair on his head, wrinkles on his face as with old tree bark, his back is already hunched, and his figure is very hunched.

He was wearing a reddish-breasted long gown and a pair of golden canes in his hand, looking polite as if he were a human noble.

Jackman walked up and said hello: "Arza, my old friend, I brought the person here!"

The old man turned his head and first looked at Heath. The envy on his face was obvious when he saw Heath's young face. After using his mental power to investigate Heath, his expression became even more shocked.

He quickly saluted humbly: "Sir."

From the perspective of mental power, the young wizard in front of him has the strength of a medium wizard, and strength is respected in the wizard world, and the figures at this level of nature must of course be respected.

Heath said casually: "I am Jackman's friend, so it's better not to be so polite."

Jackman also added: "Haha, old man, what I told you before? Heath is not a person who likes to hold airs, he is very easy-going."

Seeing Jackman familiar with the old man, Heath couldn't help but look at Jackman curiously.

With the help of magic, it is not too difficult for wizards to maintain a youthful appearance, and most wizards will operate in this way.

Generally, there are only two types of wizards who do not hide their age and let the years put on their faces. One is that they do not care much about their appearance, and the other is that they are not able to maintain their youth by relying on magic.

The old man in front of him was obviously the latter. Heath felt that his vitality was already very weak when he saw him.

But you should know that the wizard has a lifespan of five hundred years. Since the old man can consume his lifespan to this level, he should have lived for hundreds of years. Jackman is just a new generation of young wizards. The two of them can establish friendship, which makes Heath feel curious.

Perhaps seeing Heath's doubts, Jackman took the initiative to take over the conversation and said, "What? Brother Heath? I feel that our relationship is so good?"

Heath nodded: "It's not like an ordinary family member, but like a close friend of the Brothers."

Jackman laughed: "Hahaha, then your judgment is really accurate, and in fact it is indeed true. Alza and I were brothers who grew up together, and we wore the same pair of pants when we were young."

Heath was stunned, obviously even more confused.

But he thought for a while, and soon seemed to think of something again: "Can it be..."

The old man Alza nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Heath, you guessed that I am now. I became what I am now because my vitality was consumed too much. I failed twice when I advanced to the wizard, and then because of several failed magic tests, which led to my aging now..."

Not everyone can be as smooth as Heath in the road to wizards. On the contrary, most wizards, especially those without foundation, are always full of ups and downs on the road to wizards.

This road is full of hardships and dangers. Whether it is promotion, magic tests are easily failed, causing magic backlash. These backlashes will at least cause the wizard's mental power to be subject to death, and at worst, there is a huge loss of vitality like Alza, which cannot be repaired even by magic.

Now there is only one way left before him, that is, to continue to advance. Only after advancing to the medium wizard can his vitality be restored.

Heath said regretfully: "Oh, it's so unfortunate..."

Alza sighed softly: "Yes, some wizards are born with bad luck, just like me..."
