Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy-Chapter 676 - 647: Strange Events One After Another
Chapter 676: Chapter 647: Strange Events One After Another
“Anjie, wait a moment.”
“??”
Anjie thought about looking around to see what kind of place this was. Just as she was about to move her feet, Ivan called out loudly to her again, making her even more puzzled.
“This place is very unusual, don’t wander around aimlessly.”
Ivan said with a serious expression. The more he sensed the surroundings, the more he noticed something was off.
He had never seen such a bizarre situation. Under his Soul Consciousness, space was constantly coming into and out of existence with such rapid changes that it was unheard of.
In other words, this place is extremely dangerous, and any carelessness could lead to getting lost or trapped in the ever-changing spaces.
“Is it really?” Anjie was skeptical.
In Ivan’s widened eyes, she tried taking a step forward. Nothing changed, so she proceeded to walk left and right, everything seeming normal.
“See, you can walk anywhere, it’s completely normal.”
“This—”
Seeing this scene, Ivan raised his eyebrows, his eyes widening slightly.
This doesn’t make sense!
“Mr. Ivan, you’re quite the joker; you gave me a scare just now.” Anjie said with a light smile, not forgetting to pace back and forth to counter his words.
“It seems my senses might have been wrong.”
No matter how much Ivan trusted his Soul Consciousness, he had to admit that the issue was on his end, otherwise, how could the other, a lord, be bouncing around like this?
“So can we move now?”
“Ahem, Miss Anjie, it’s time to test your luck.”
“Mr. Ivan, I don’t think I quite understand.”
“From now on, you’ll lead the way. I’ll observe from behind. If anything changes, I can take immediate action to protect you. How does that sound?”
“Huh? Okay.”
Anjie looked at him with doubt, having never heard of protecting someone from behind.
But despite the doubt, Anjie agreed, choosing a direction with interest and gracefully flew that way.
Ivan scratched his head and hurried to keep up.

In his view, this place was full of hidden dangers, and every step needed to be cautious. If he had to lead as recklessly as Anjie, his scalp would surely tingle.
Could it really be a problem with his senses?
Or had some sort of test already begun, targeting only him and not Anjie? Moreover, the lure that drew him near had dispersed and was now everywhere.
For once, he was rarely hesitant.
Ah! Sometimes, knowing too much can be trouble, like Anjie, without such worries, just leading the way ahead.
He quickly adjusted his thoughts, vigilantly observing the surroundings in case something truly happened.
Anjie had kindly brought him here, and if any mishap occurred, he really couldn’t face Antoinette.
“Mr. Ivan, I think we should adjust our direction slightly, maybe switch to this side? What do you think?”
“I think you’re right.”
Whether it was Anjie’s luck or not, they traveled for half a day without knowing how far, and encountered no mishaps, let alone anything else.
The surroundings were still a white expanse, with not a trace of other colors.
Ivan, however, hadn’t relaxed his guard.
And so, day after day passed.
In a flash, it was the fifth day, and they were still within this white expanse. Clearly, they had lost their way and didn’t know which direction led back.
“Mr. Ivan, it seems my luck isn’t helping you.” Anjie had lost her enthusiasm from a few days ago.
“Alright, let this sorcerer lead the way, you follow closely.” Ivan immediately understood and didn’t refuse this time. After these days, he had adapted to the peculiar conditions here.
Even if it was like walking on a knife edge, in a fire and brimstone, he could face it calmly, moving forward with composure.
Then, their positions became Ivan leading in front, Anjie following behind.
“Mr. Ivan, Mr. Ivan.”
After advancing a bit further, Anjie seemed to think of something and suddenly called out his name repeatedly.
“What is it?” Ivan glanced back but didn’t stop his pace.
“Time to test your luck.” Anjie said playfully with a smile.
“Then we’ll wait and see.” Ivan replied wryly, then nodded.
With that, he intuitively chose another direction, taking Anjie along as they flew that way. He wanted to see if there would indeed be some difference.
A new day.
It should be around noon when Ivan suddenly noticed a vague black dot in the front-left direction, causing him to freeze, given that it had been a long time since there was any other color in his sight.
Anjie also following tightly behind noticed this and stalled for a moment herself.
“You’re right.” The two exchanged looks, and Ivan said.
“Really?” Anjie seemed a bit disappointed.
“Of course, but it doesn’t necessarily mean anything.” Ivan continued.
The duo then moved toward the location of the black dot, appearing close yet actually quite farther than expected.
This wasn’t difficult for Ivan and Anjie. As they got closer, their vision first settled on a mountain, ahead seemingly being a floating island.
Ivan’s eyes brightened slightly.
But as he moved a bit closer, his face suddenly turned dark. Indeed, life is full of unexpected encounters.
What a misfortune!
“Oh, two little darlings have come.”
Close enough now to no longer evade, the creature there turned around, its massive head and sharp claws emerging from beneath the mountain. It was evidently someone Ivan recognized, an old acquaintance.
