Or a player?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan touched the mask on his face, smiling slightly as he said, \"I am a player.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you recognize me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose was somewhat puzzled. She had clearly not worn the Rose mask, and her voice was disguised. How on earth had the player recognized her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The magic staff you used just now,\" Sunan succinctly answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The magic staff capable of casting Magic Missile was a product brought out for trade during the second gathering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan clearly remembered that the magic staff was traded away by Rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the moment he saw the magic staff, he guessed the identity of the gray-robed person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose was silent for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She honestly did not expect her identity would be exposed due to the magic staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the only people who could recognize the magic staff were those from the Forest Cottage, not enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you here?\" Rose asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Same as you,\" Sunan got straight to the point, \"You want to enter the city, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprise flickered in Rose’s eyes, seemingly not expecting Sunan’s objective to be the same as hers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze subtly shifted for a moment before she suddenly said, \"How about we cooperate?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You saw it too, the island city is heavily guarded, and there are soul-hunting beasts that can see through invisibility and illusion techniques. Any one of us wouldn’t be able to sneak in alone; why not collaborate and meet our respective needs?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soul-hunting beasts?\" Sunan quickly reacted, \"You mean that black lion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I tortured the details out of a human-faced lion. It’s said to be a rare exotic beast raised by the human-faced lion, capable of sensing soul breath. Unless you can alter even your soul breath, any disguise is useless before it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I initially thought the human-faced lion exaggerated until just now... Invisibility skills and magical disguise seem to be useless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan realized, but was also somewhat speechless afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The human-faced lion was indeed exceptionally cunning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, the two human-faced lions he had interrogated unanimously hid such an essential piece of information. They wanted him to charge ahead blindly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, Rose stepped on this landmine before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The cooperation is possible; I also have a way to infiltrate the city. But first, you need to tell me your reason for sneaking into the island city.\" Sunan fixed his eyes on Rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose hesitated, gritting her teeth, \"I agree, but you must sign an Oath Contract with me, ensuring you won’t tell anyone else!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two proceeded to sign an Oath Contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Rose slowly explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I discovered a Wizard inheritance in the underground world. According to my investigation, the key to unlocking the Wizard inheritance is hidden somewhere in the city, which is why I want to sneak inside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard inheritance!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan’s pupils slightly contracted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is a Wizard inheritance nearby?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re not afraid I’ll want to interfere with the Wizard inheritance upon hearing this news?\" Sunan raised a brow in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose chuckled lightly, saying, \"If you are willing, we can cooperate to explore the Wizard inheritance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Would you be so generous?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have no choice.\" Rose sighed, \"The guarding force there is excessively strong, and merely guarding the entrance is a Refined Gold Golem that I can’t defeat alone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Refined Gold Golem!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan was somewhat surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is a higher-level metal golem than a Steel Golem, with combat power not inferior to a Hundred-armed Monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even for him, tackling the Refined Gold Golem wouldn’t be easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The entrance is guarded solely by a Refined Gold Golem, and the inner guard force will be stronger. I can’t handle the Wizard inheritance alone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Originally, I planned to invite one or two people for collaboration at the Forest Cottage gathering once I got the key. Meeting you now is quite coincidental.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about it, want to cooperate?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rose looked at Sunan hopefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although unaware of the player’s exact strength, judging by the resources he holds and his past achievement of defeating Herb, he certainly isn’t weaker than her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the player joins the exploration, the assurance of acquiring the Wizard inheritance would undoubtedly increase substantially.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How will we distribute the things in the Wizard inheritance?\" Sunan got right to the point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He certainly wouldn’t want to miss the opportunity to explore the Wizard inheritance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The risk is worth it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, he has many cards up his sleeve, a high level of self-assurance for survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I take two-thirds, since I provided the information.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunan decisively rejected, \"I want half.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Rose was about to speak, he interrupted her, \"I will think of a way to sneak into the city, and the Refined Gold Golem can be dealt with by me, but the cost will not be small. I must take half of the Wizard inheritance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Alright, half for each.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hesitating for quite a while, Rose finally agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Sunan can solve these two problems, which troubled her the most, the half-and-half split seems reasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the vital allocation ratio was settled, the subsequent matters became much simpler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After discussing the details, the two again signed an Oath Contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the contract was sealed, both visibly relaxed, and the atmosphere between them became easier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the constraints of the contract, they no longer needed to worry about betrayal or attack during the exploration or after obtaining items from the Wizard inheritance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of the contract is absolute for Wizards!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—At least for Wizards who aren’t yet strong enough.\u003C\u002Fp>",943,"2026-06-06T02:33:43.453Z",1,"novelbin.me","f215f21323b7f935975e64d721a74ddb3e3a8a20d53fac7d6450eb06035eb197","synthetic-wizard-chapter-128","synthetic-wizard-chapter-126",369,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsynthetic-wizard-cover.jpg"]
