The angrier Link was, the calmer he became.

Without changing his pace or posture, he naturally walked out of the Rune Item Area and went near the entrance of the Black Market.

There was a subtle stall hidden in the corner selling various types of blueprints, like the latest updated geographic and topographic maps of the West District.

Link had found this information after several rounds of searching on the “forum”.

It had taken a great deal of time and energy.

Standing in front of the stall, Link didn’t speak a word. He directly pulled out five standard first-grade Magic Stones and placed them on the booth one by one.

Five Magic Stones occupied five corners, forming a somewhat abstract pentagram.

This was code language, indicating an understanding and willingness to adhere to the rules of this stall.

Buy and take, without uttering an extra word.

The blind old man manning the stall sensed the movement, and with shaky hands, touched the Magic Stones.

He patiently felt each one, confirming the five Magic Stones formed a pentagram before carefully putting them away one by one.

He then shakily pulled out a crumpled map from under the counter, put it on the table, and slowly turned his back.

New maps are for sale.

A crumpled old map is considered lost.

Although it might appear unnecessarily awkward, it at least leaves room for the stallholder, Black Market leader, and those behind the scenes to manoeuvre.

In the grey area, survival in the cracks is normal.

There is no casual defiance, only trepidation and fear.

Thus, it frequently results in abnormal and antisocial personalities due to the excessive mental pressure.

Link picked up the crumpled map, quickly opened it for a glance, and compared the information on the map with his memory, noting down the updated parts, then quickly left the concealed stall.

After walking out of the dark tunnel and returning the mask, Link quickly left the Black Market.

He wandered around the nearby streets for a while, and finally found the street hooligans who had been following him earlier.

Staying at a distance, he confirmed several times that all the street gang members were Wizard Apprentices, all within Link’s manageable range, and nothing should go wrong.

Only then did Link stand at the entrance of a dead-end alley, casually waving at the hooligans who had already noticed him and became suspicious.

The street gang members, impulsive and prideful, were immediately infuriated.

Who the fuck is he looking down on?

Does he think he can call us over like a pack of dogs?

So, the gang members spread out, advancing, then regrouping, corralling Link into the dead-end alley.

From all available information about Ravensmouth City, Link had an understanding of the general situation of the street gangs in the West District.

Most of these people were locals from Ravensmouth and surrounding areas.

They had Wizard Qualifications, but they were all third class or lower, which was quite awkward.

They couldn’t afford the expensive tuition fees and also didn’t want to sign a “slavery agreement” (similar to the Storm Sea New Blood pact). They didn’t want to work hard for four years at Ravensmouth Biological and Medical College and end up in one of those sweatshops in the South City District.

So they could only randomly learn some ordinary Meditation Techniques and witchcraft that may not necessarily suit them. Then, like hyenas, they wander around the streets and alleys of the West District, looking for scraps.

If they tried a little harder, they wouldn’t have fallen into such circumstances.

They could at least join one of the many gangs in the West District, couldn’t they?

Despite being cornered, Link remained calm.

He gently adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with an urbane smile, “Gentlemen, I mean no harm.”

The street hooligans didn’t respond, grinning maliciously and preparing to rush in all at once.

They had wanted to rob this fat sheep laden with Rune Items and even Magic Tools, but unfortunately, he had went into the Black Market.

Unexpectedly, after exiting the Black Market, the fat sheep took the initiative to approach and provoke them.

Well then, let’s get to work!

Suddenly, an extremely thick fog that blinds everyone, enveloped the street thugs.

Things took a sudden turn, and the vision of the street thugs was completely restricted.

All they could see was a vast expanse of whiteness. Apart from the thick fog, they couldn’t see anything.

Even each other.

Despite being in physical contact, and being aware of each other’s presence, they couldn’t see each other at all.

The street thugs were greatly shocked. Ambush!

Just as they were about to retaliate,

Tens of thorns quietly grew, silently moved around, tightly entangling and binding the legs and bodies of the street thugs.

Five sharp leaf arrows, blinking with a ghostly light, rose to the forehead of the street thugs.

As long as Link gave them a thought, the street thugs had no time to activate the defense of their Rune Objects, they would explode and die instantly.

The secondary Misty Rain Technique was removed and the thick fog dispersed.

The street thugs recognized reality, under the threat of the Leaf Arrow Spell, they dared not move a muscle.

In less than 0.5 seconds, Link first Instant Cast a fulfilled level of Secondary Misty Rain Technique, while simultaneously Instant Cast Thorn Entanglement as a Pseudo Destiny Witchcraft.

Then he followed up with a “Parallel Casting”, developed from Pseudo Destiny Witchcraft, sending out five concurrent Leaf Arrow Spells in less than 1 second.

This combination of interference, control, and deterrence was executed very smoothly and completely deterred the street thugs.

In the blink of an eye, he cast three spells; although they were all common ones among the Zero Ring spells, but…

This TMs is not something that an ordinary wizard apprentice can achieve!

Which young master from the North City District came to the West District to seek fun?

“Boss, speak directly, no need for this act.”

The oldest among the street thugs stuttered.

However, at this point, the boss still didn’t beg for mercy.

Link didn’t care about these either and asked kindly, “Now, can we talk calmly?”

“No problem, your words count.”

A few street thugs said in unison, “Please remove your witchcraft first, it’s creepy to talk like this.”

Link smiled, removed the Leaf Arrow Spell, but two Self-Destructing Fire Thunders promptly appeared in his left hand.

If he could control the street thugs once, he can do it a second time.

Then, without giving the street thugs a chance to talk back, he asked directly, “I have a job for you, the pay is ten standard first-grade Magic Stones, are you in?”

The street thugs looked at each other.

Big boss, you staged such a grand scene just to give us a job?

You think highly of us!

“You say.”

The situation is compelling, what else can the street gang leader do, he must agree.

Link immediately described Harold Andrews’ height, hair color, body shape, and clothing to the street thugs, then said, “This man will come out of the black market soon, and I want you to find a way to guide him to Spider Tail Alley.”

As he spoke, Link pulled out ten Magic Stones with his right hand, and gave two to each person.

It’s not a negotiation, but an order.

“Once you take the money, you should do the job, right?”

Passing by the street thugs bound in place by the thorns, Link turned back and smiled elegantly.

The white teeth sparkled with a cold light..
