Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 87 - Fifth Floor



Chapter 87: Fifth Floor

At this moment, on the sixth floor, at Checkpoint Valley.

When Heath and the others arrived at Checkpoint Valley, there were already quite a number of Apprentices gathered there.

When they saw Heath and the others coming over, everyone’s faces turned black.

“That pervert from Shadow Tower is here!”

“Damn it, stay away from him. I don’t want to fail before the finish line.”

If there were people who thought that the black-haired genius of Shadow Tower was undeserved in the past, then no one would have such absurd thoughts now.

In these few days, the Apprentices on the sixth floor had truly witnessed the terror of the black-haired genius.

Although Heath was sometimes very sinister, that was only when he could not beat them.

He had always been straightforward when dealing with rookies.

Along the way, every Apprentice who blocked his way and harbored evil intentions towards him was sent out by him using the most direct method.

Because of this, in just a few days, everyone had experienced the terror of being dominated by black hair.

Until now, it was too late to run when they saw him from afar. No one dared to ambush him anymore.

Just like when they saw Heath and the other two walking into the valley, the Apprentices all avoided him as if they were avoiding the plague. They even gathered together to form cliques.

To be able to force these unrelated Apprentices into a state of unity, one could see his great achievements in the past few days.

“Are you that afraid of me?”

Walking into the valley, Heath glanced at the trembling Apprentices, and then his gaze fell on the giant tree that blocked the entrance of the valley.

This was a high-level demonized creature, a kind of treant, called the Guardian Tree. It had the strength of a high-level Apprentice, and it could also summon Forest Fairies to fight together. It was unusually troublesome to deal with.

The clown, who was next to Heath, said, “All the paths to the destination have a Guardian Tree left by a Wizard.”

“But we don’t have to defeat them to get there. Maybe we can try to negotiate with them. Maybe there will be a surprise.”

Heath decided to listen to the clown’s opinion.

He walked forward.

Before he could speak, the Guardian Tree said with a bad temper, “Either defeat me or give me the Purifying Water. Otherwise, don’t even think about getting past me!”

Heath asked, “Purifying Water?”

The Guardian Tree pointed at a lake not far away and said, “There is a pool at the bottom of the lake. The pool is filled with Purifying Water!”

Heath frowned.

The lake seemed to be more than a hundred meters deep. He had never learned any diving-type spells, and he was not even good at swimming. How could he possibly get water from the lake?

The clown suggested, “The guards at every checkpoint have different requirements. We can’t get through here. Maybe we can try another place.”

“We can’t get through, we can’t get through. Let’s go, let’s go!”

“Let’s go, let’s try another place.”

“If it doesn’t work, we can just go back and dig for the treasure chest. I don’t think I can win anyway.”

The surrounding Apprentices began to choose to take a detour.

Heath also began to hesitate.

Should he take a detour?

The nearest route to the final destination would take at least a day. It would take too long.

Moreover, could he guarantee that he would be able to meet the requirements of the guards at the next checkpoint?

After weighing the pros and cons of each other’s strength, Heath placed one hand on the hilt of his sword.

The clown shouted, “Yes, do it!”

He was prepared to use force, but at that moment…

Jenny, who was in the team, suddenly said, “Let me give it a try!”

Heath was stunned. “Are you sure?”

The two of them had been useless along the way, so Heath had directly ignored them.

Jenny nodded. “I think I can do it.”

Seeing her confidence, Heath didn’t say anything more and put down his hand.

Then, Jenny walked to the lakeside and took out a cowhide water bag from her space pocket. She took off her clothes and walked into the lake naked.

With every step she took, her body began to twist and transform. Soon, she turned into an inch-long little mermaid. With a splash, she jumped into the lake and swam to the bottom of the lake with her tail flapping.

It was a common spell in the Wizard World, [Shape-Shifting Spell].

After waiting for a few minutes, Jenny swam back to the shore. The cowhide water bag was in her mouth.

She swam back to the shore, and her body began to expand and grow. Soon, she returned to her human appearance.

She raised the cowhide water bag and shook it at Heath and Jessica. “I got it.”

Then, she took out a towel to wipe off the water stains on her body and put on her cloak again.

Heath took the leather water bag and passed it to the Guardian Tree in front of him. The Guardian Tree opened the cork and drank the water.

“That’s right, it’s Purifying Water! You can pass through!”

After saying that, the dense branches made a path to the side.

Jessica and Jenny were overjoyed. “Haha, that’s great!”

Then, the three of them passed through smoothly.

Not long after they came out of the valley, the clown beside Heath said happily, “Ya, ya, ya! Congratulations, my friend. You passed the test of the sixth level.”

“The winner deserves a reward. Come, let’s see how lucky you are.”

It took out something that looked like a big wheel from somewhere. On it was all kinds of magic tools, such as Wizard tools, potions, scrolls, and so on.

Then, he turned the wheel and it began to spin.

After spinning for more than ten seconds, the wheel slowly came to a stop. At this time, the pointer pointed to a label.

On it was written: Wizard Tool [Hound’s Nose].

The clown said happily, “Big surprise, my friend. You drew [Hound’s Nose]. This is a medium-level Wizard Apprentice’s Wizard tool.”

“In that case, I’ll give you the [Hound’s Nose]. I hope it can help you on your journey.”

The clown snapped his fingers lightly.

With a bang, a cloud of smoke burst out in front of Heath. A small wooden box fell from the smoke and fell to the ground with a thud.

Heath picked up the box and took a look. There was something similar to a dog’s nose inside.

He immediately reached out his spiritual tentacle and inserted it into the box. He left a spiritual imprint on the box and learned how to use it.

Then, he thought to himself, ‘Extract.’

[Beep, successful extraction. Obtained Intermediate Apprentice Level Wizard Tool [Hound’s Nose] Blueprint.]

At the same time, two banging sounds came from behind. Jessica and Jenny each had a small wooden box in front of their feet. It seemed like both of them had received a reward.

“Haha, I got 2,000 Magic Stones!” Jenny said happily.

“I got [Thorn Bind], an intermediate Apprentice level spell.” Jessica also smiled.

Then, the three of them continued on their journey.

After passing through Checkpoint Valley, they arrived at a flat land. Moreover, according to the clown’s introduction, this area was forbidden for Apprentices to fight and kill.

Without any danger, the three of them were able to increase their speed once again. Soon, they arrived at the end of the sixth floor.

The fifth floor was just a few feet away!
