Chapter 1004: Part 1: Testing the metallic puppet
From MC's Perspective:
The mysterious liquid has enhanced the quality of the puppet body. When the last drop was gone. The procedure came to an end.
The conscious who is in charge of the inheritance inspects the product. After confirmation, there is nothing wrong with it. The metal door was then opened.
Creak!
On the other hand, I am focusing on the metallic chamber. When the door was open. My eyes immediately focused on the puppet body.
The puppet has a silver luster on its metallic skin. The next second, I used the system to inspect.
The status panel showed up. Then I focused on the details. The Puppet's rank increased from level 7 to level 8.
My eyes flash with disbelief. Because I know that living things require rule power understanding in order to progress further along their wizard path.
But the puppet is entirely different. I am not sure what kind of principle is driving this advancement.
[Inheritor can take away the improved spy puppet]
The voice broke my thoughts. Then I entered the chamber and collected the puppet back to the system space.
Since the work here was done. I don't plan on staying here. Then I used the inheritance token to leave the place.
A few hours later,
I reached the mountain range. It is the same mountain range where I spent the first part of the journey looking for treasure. I am sure there are still several groups looking for the rare herbs right now.
Suddenly, a thought occurred to me. I would like to put the Zero Puppet's abilities to the test. This is an excellent opportunity to use the Zero Puppet to collect rare herbs from this small mountain range.
There are still a few hours left before dawn. The ominous power usually appears at night.
There was no oppressive pressure emanating from its body. I believe Puppet can handle monsters of the sixth or higher order. So I can execute the plan.
Swoosh!
After appearing at the Gregor Mansion, I took the puppet body outside.
Then I began to observe it. I'm not planning to activate the core right here. I began to put black clothes and mage robes on it.
15 minutes later,
A masked puppet stood before me. I grabbed the puppet's shoulder and appeared outside.
Then I examined my surroundings. Seeing that no one was present. I put the mid-grade mana stones in the puppet's core slot.
The puppet core then began to activate. Slowly, light returns to the puppy's eye.
"Master," The Zero Puppet exclaimed with vigor.
Hearing that, I nodded in satisfaction.
'Take this map. I want you to collect rare herbs. If possible, loot the resources from the wizards who are roaming the mountain range."
"It will reduce the risk of being exposed to danger," I told the puppet.
"Whether the task is successful or not, you must return before dawn," I added.
"Yes, master," Zero said before leaving the place.
Seeing the puppet's nearly human-like movements. My eyes sparkle with anticipation.
When the puppet disappeared from my sight. I returned to the Gregor Mansion.
On the other hand, the puppet moves quickly towards the top of the mountain range, where there is a wider area.
At the same time, there were foreign wizards from different camps searching for the treasures on this mountain range.
Everyone knows about the weird ominous power that comes at night. Apart from newcomers, the veterans have experienced the near life and death experience first.
So they were more keen to complete the work before the nightfall.
At this time, a group of 4 people are searching not far away from the coming puppet.
All 4 of them are rogue wizard wanderers who have managed to join a like minded camp. In order to avoid getting into conflict with other powerful groups.
They have come here to look for fortune.
"Brother, don't go further. We have already taken the risk to come here, who knows what's buried under the ground."
"So you should come back," One of the warriors shouted at the wizards who were drifting away from the group.
On the other hand, the person getting scolded turned blind eye. Because he has spotted something sparkling under the bush.
He noticed it a while ago. But he didn't inform anyone.
"After getting this item, I should ditch this group," The person said to himself while getting closer to the bushes.
After getting there, he crouched then to check the sparkling item.
Swoosh!
When he extended his hand to check. Out of nowhere, a silver palm hit his heart.
Bang!
The next second, his chest bones broke and the beating mana core and heart exploded. The Man's eyes filled with disbelief and fear.
Before he could figure it out, his consciousness left his body. The silver hand then cut off his hand to collect the storage bracelet.
The sparkling object is nothing but a gem stone which is picked by the Zero Puppet on the way.
Then the Zero Pupper walks out of the bush which startles everyone. The three of them saw that the intruder had covered his identity.
So the 3 rogue wizards started to attack. One of them was a level-7 Wizard. And the other 2 were level-6 wizards. The deceased one was a level-6 Wizard as well.
"Fire Ball"
One of them quickly cast the flame magic spell. Several fireballs appear in the mid air and then shoot towards the coming puppet.
The other rogue wizard brought the huge giant sword forward. He was a weapon wizard. The last one simply uses knuckles. He is a Physique Type Wizard.
Zero Puppet used his feet swiftly to avoid the attack. The puppet body has improved. It's a simple task for the puppet to eliminate 3 of them.
Boom!
The Fireballs have missed the target. One by one they landed on the ground creating a lot of noise.
Swoosh
The Zero Puppet immediately appears before the Fire Wizard who was caught off guard.
Pfff!
Then the puppet used its left hand to chop off his neck.
The other 2 rogue wizards are horrified. Those simple movements and reactions did not belong to level-6 Wizard.
Even level-7 Wizards like themselves can't do it. Which left them with one option.
'"Escape!"
"Enemy must be a level-8 Wizard."
The 2 exclaimed in the shock at the same time. The Zero Puppet didn't waste anymore time. It instantly appears beside them before chopping off their head one by one.
Pfff!
Blood splattered on the ground. The Zero Puppet then cut off their bands before collecting the storage bracelets.
Meanwhile,
In the Gregor Mansion, I began to read the academy book. It's been some time since I touched it. Most of the time was gone in surviving the territory.
But whenever I got the time. I had practiced many of my Gravity Spells. It also brought me unknown benefits.
Now I have little time to spend studying. Before that I thought about the status panel.

The Status panel showed up. Then my gaze fell on the details. I didn't notice it earlier. The unknown benefit was 1% increase in the Gravity Rule Understanding.
Then I closed the status panel before I began reading the books. I think the knowledge recorded in the books would further increase my understanding.
Time passed,
The Zero Puppet is successfully hunting the wizards. After some time, people started to take notice of the decapitated corpse. What's more strange is that all the corpses had the same mark.
Their head was decapitated and one of their hands was missing. Seeing that wizards began to be suspicious of each other. Because the missing hand held the storage bracelet.
Monsters will not be able to kill with such precision and patience. All of the camps concluded that a high-level wizard was targeting them.
The news made the Adventurer groups and the Rogue Wizards Camp fearful. The wealthy camps are guarded by high-level wizards. So they are not too concerned.
