Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique

Link planned to ambush Harold Andrews.

Spider Tail Alley was the location Link chose for the ambush.

It wasn’t too far from the Black Market, and the street gangsters should be able to trick Harold Andrews into coming there.

Don’t be fooled by how easily Link takes on street gangsters and think they’re weak.

It’s not that the street gangsters are weak, it’s just that Link is among the strongest in the first stage of wizard apprentices.

If you exclude Magic Tools and Rune Objects, apart from those on the verge of becoming official wizards, even fourth-year, experienced, third-class wizard apprentices would only either lose or die if they were to duel Link.

The comparison in Zero Ring witchcraft comes down to two things: the time it takes to cast the spell and the effect of the spell.

Whoever can cast witchcraft faster, whoever can control witchcraft with more power and greater function, has a greater chance of winning.

Not only can Link cast witchcraft faster, but he can also simultaneously activate several witchcrafts.

Usually, for the sake of studying and living, Link only maintains two witchcrafts on standby to “activate”.

With the battle about to begin, the more witchcrafts on standby for “activation”, the better.

When Link bursts into action, he is akin to a walking Human-Shaped Magic Machine Gun.

If you include Magic Tools and Rune Objects, Link does reveal a weakness.

He lacks a powerful Attack Magic Tool.

His defense system, built around first-ring-level tools: glasses and vest, along a few Rune Objects, is beginning to fall behind and needs an upgrade.

Harold Andrews, though Link doesn’t underestimate him, is still presumed to be at the stage of a First Rank Wizard Apprentice.

The five street gangsters, according to Link’s observation, are all Second-rank wizard apprentices. They should have no problem handling Harold Andrews.

Link arrived early at Spider Tail Alley and hid.

He wasn’t worried at all that the street gangsters would flee after taking the Magic Stone and not do the job.

What are street prowlers most afraid of?

Those decent-looking degenerates.

Wearing Gold Frame Glasses, with a pleasant smile on their faces, saying harmlessly that they mean no harm, and then kill you effortlessly.

Based on the latest map of the West District, and the information in his mind, Link was sure that Spider Tail Alley, nearby a small piece of ruins, was currently unmonitored and devoid of any Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppet. The original gang that dominated Spider Tail Alley had been eradicated by the Academy’s law enforcement department a few months ago.

Hmm…

The idiot who dared to sell a Magic Tool that could block the signal of an Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppet into the academy was a member of this unlucky gang.

It wasn’t long before Link spotted the gangsters leading Harold Andrews towards the nearby ruins from afar.

“How much longer till we get there? Have we arrived? If we haven’t, I am not going.”

Harold Andrews, who had frequently been going in and out the Black Market recently and was familiar with the street trends of the West District, started to feel scared as they ventured farther and farther off track.

He paused, quickly retreated a few steps away from the circle of street gangsters, and shouted out in caution.

He activated the Sprint Boots he was wearing and reached for his waist, ready to attack, defend, or flee as necessary.

Just half an hour ago, he had just left the Black Market when these familiar-looking street gangsters approached him with a potentially lucrative deal.

Harold Andrews knew there were many bottom layer gangsters on the streets of the West District who would steal, loot, excavate ruins, or rob corpses, and frequently come up with some good loot.

But street gangsters without enough resources to set up a stall in the Black Market, who are unwilling to sell at a lower price to stall owners or gangs, would loiter around the Black Market looking for potential buyers.

Harold Andrews once bought a valuable item from another group of street thugs.

That great gadget was used for long-distance stealth photography, extremely covert and not easily detected. Other than the rather blurred image quality, it had no apparent drawbacks.

Harold Andrews had used this wonderful gadget to secretly take pictures of the detestable Link Grande and the annoying Jasmine Kidman. On the “forum”, he fabricated rumors, fanned the flames, and had never been caught.

Today, Harold Andrews had bought some Rune Objects at the Black Market, spending almost all of his Magic Stones, including those he had brought from home and those he had accumulated through various means since his enrollment.

Upon hearing about an opportunity to scoop up a good deal, the penniless yet urgently needing to arm himself, Harold Andrews, surely didn’t want to miss out.

Therefore, he followed these street thugs to the ruins.

The further he was led astray, the more Harold Andrews began to suspect whether these street thugs really had the goods, or if they were deceiving him with ulterior motives.

Harold Andrews was not fooled easily because street thugs often deceived and cheated others.

“Bro, what are you so afraid of? If we dare to do anything to you, we would end up as corpses on the street tonight.”

The gang leader laughed out, “We’re almost there, just around the corner on the alley ahead.”

“Spider Tail Alley?”

Harold Andrews upon hearing this raised his eyebrows suspiciously, “The gangs initially in place there have all been thoroughly eradicated. What good stuff could be found there?”

Obviously, he had heard about the events taking place in Spider Tail Alley.

The gang leader snorted in a provocative that-you-know-nothing attitude, “My brother, you just don’t understand. These gangsters love to bury things underground. A few days ago, we came over to wander around aimlessly. We casually dug a courtyard. Can you guess what we found?”

“What?”

Seeing the street thugs showing no sign of attacking, Harold Andrews was slightly relieved and did not leave immediately. He asked out of curiosity.

The gang leader looked around and with a cautionary posture that affirmed no one else was present, whispered in a lowered voice, “A shield device, ever heard of it?”

“I have.”

Harold Andrew nodded his head unable to help but have his curiosity piqued. The shield device is a Magic Tool that can block Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppets for a short time.

“We found a complete shield device!”

The gang leader revealed the answer in an even lower voice.

He spoke the truth—they indeed found a shield device within Spider Tail Alley. Wasn’t that something?

However, that shield device was sold long ago!

The gang leader’s tone and expression revealed no trace of deception.

Harold Andrews believed him.

He was also tempted.

It wasn’t easy for him to launch a campaign in the school “forum” targeting Link Grande.

It not only required the use of a special brain capable of making anonymous contacts and login to the “forum” but also required him to avoid other people and Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppets.

Every time Harold Andrews caused trouble in the college, he had to sneak into the campus toilets to avoid getting monitored.

If he could have a shield device, why would he have to suffer like that? “Alright… deal.”

After hesitating, Harold Andrews finally succumbed to temptation and decided to follow along once again.

The gangsters seemed to consider Harold’s feelings and did not continue to crowd around him, instead keeping a distance from him.

Just one more corner before the alley..
