Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 1029
Chapter 1018 Locke: I’m not interested in human wizards for the time being!
In the top-level water magic laboratory of the Tide Wizarding Tower, inside a room created by water prison magic, dozens of undead were besieging a second-ring soybean warrior.
Ice towers appeared above the heads of these white ice towers, constantly firing ice needles and ice bullets at the soybean warrior, which dodged all attacks by adjusting every inch of its branches and leaves.
The soul fire in the pupils of the second-ring liches within the white ice towers flickered.
“Damn it, that plant is too powerful.”
“It’s impossible to hit it.”
Meanwhile, outside the laboratory, Locke, Wizard Terence, and Wizard Gusta were recording the effects of the actual combat.
[I hope readers remember our domain name for reading Taiwanese novels: ᴛᴡᴋᴀɴ.ᴄᴏᴍ Super Powerful]
Because this was the water magic laboratory of the Tide Wizarding Tower, Locke, out of courtesy and the necessity of operating the water magic equipment, invited Wizard Gusta.
By this time, the undead had been fighting here for half a day.
Locke observed their fighting style.
“I see. The ice tower above their heads, condensed through advanced meditation and the special magic array of the white ice tower, is a container for temporarily storing magical energy. This overcomes the need for ice magic to freeze the moisture in the air and temporarily create a large amount of cold air. The ice tower can store frozen air and magical energy, reducing combat consumption, avoiding the biggest weakness of ice magic wizards—the problem of endurance—and also providing stable output and enhancing the attack power of magic.”
Wizard Terence added, “Moreover, the ice magic of the white ice tower seems to complement the undead’s bodies perfectly. Ice magic has two major drawbacks: first, it consumes a lot of energy and has endurance problems; second, it puts a burden on the body. Many ice magic wizards experience a continuous drop in body temperature due to casting spells, resulting in weakness and illness.”
“Using too much ice magic will put a great burden on the body,”
Wizard Gusta said. “Why don’t you two just modify your bloodlines?
“
Wizard Terence ignored him.
Locke then said to him, “Bloodline modification has significant side effects. Moreover, it only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. But if you become an undead, it seems there are no such side effects. No wonder the wizards of the White Ice Tower are so receptive to necromancy.”
“The apprentices of the White Ice Tower favor three spell models, which are basically derived from the first-circle spells: Ice Spike Barrage and Ice Needle. These two spell models are also the most popular among their first-circle wizards. By storing their ice magic through the White Ice Tower, they can use these two high-consumption, continuous-cast spells in battle. Becoming undead eliminates the final side effect of ice magic—lower body temperature.” “
In this way, the sealing effect of ice magic, the cumulative damage to living beings, and the advantages of altering the environment and weakening enemies become apparent.”
“The most typical effect of ice magic is also freezing magical energy.”
“This is publicly available information, but based on the undead I’ve captured, I believe the White Ice Tower’s spell model also has the effect of freezing spiritual energy, preventing its smooth flow.”
Locke saw the undead attacking his Bean Warrior. Although they couldn’t hit the Bean Warrior, as their attacks all missed through the gaps in its branches and leaves, they did hit the ground, which was now covered in a thick layer of ice. Invisible ice shards filled the air, even affecting the operation of the water prison.
The Bean Warrior’s movements slowed down because its magic and spiritual energy were frozen.
The soul fire flickering in the undead’s eye sockets seemed extremely joyful.
“Lord Augustine said that if we can kill this demonic plant, he will let us leave.”
“There’s hope!”
At this moment, Locke, standing outside the water prison, pointed, and a beam of moonlight shone on the soybean warrior. This was the Moon Cultivation Method. Locke then used a wisp of his unused Melting Spirit Aura on the demonic plant. Instantly, red threads appeared on the soybean warrior’s branches and leaves, and its entire body turned bright red.
The soybean warrior, having received the Melting Spirit Aura, became stronger. At the same time, special red threads also grew on its green soybean leaves. This was a slight change in its species after being strengthened by the Moon Cultivation Method.
“I knew the soybean warrior was very suitable for this kind of spiritual energy.”
“I thought of it when it absorbed it. It seems my intuition was right. The soybean warrior absorbed this spiritual energy very easily and mutated.”
This was thanks to his Moon Cultivation Method, which improved with the advancement of spiritual energy knowledge.
Secondly, the soybean warrior itself was indeed suitable for this kind of spiritual energy. This was his judgment after using the soybean warrior and the Melting Spirit Aura.
Sometimes, the spiritual energy produced by one type of magical plant can be perfectly suited to another magical plant that is completely unrelated to it.
A major task for breeders is to find such highly compatible magical plants and spiritual energies.
Of course, their own lunar cultivation method undoubtedly reduces the difficulty of cultivation significantly.
At this moment, the Molten Heart Soybean Warrior seemed to be wrapped in flames, a result of the Molten Heart’s spiritual energy merging into its living energy. Therefore, the Molten Heart Soybean Warrior completely ignored the ice magic in its surroundings, and its agility and magical pressure were fully restored.
It swung its soybean branches, and instantly, a vaporized lich floating in mid-air using ice magic was struck in the waist and shattered instantly. A fire nova erupted from their contact.
The entire lich exploded.
Locke immediately understood what had happened.
“The molten spirit’s energy flows with the collision, entering the attacked enemy’s body and igniting them. But the undead have no spirit energy, especially not the explosive, hidden life force of molten spirit energy. So, in that instant, the undead will die instantly. But such an attack would likely have little effect on living beings,”
Locke analyzed.
At this moment, the undead of the white ice tower looked at the Molten Heart Bean Warrior in terror,
not daring to approach.
Wizard Gustav looked at Locke in astonishment, because Locke’s magical power was too strong. He had simply cultivated a magical plant, yet it had rendered these undead helpless.
You must know that if the wizards of their Tide Grand Wizard Tower encountered these undead on the battlefield, they would be in for a tough fight.
Wizard Terence clapped his hands and said, “Director Locke, I think with these undead, the progress in developing magical plants specifically to counter the White Ice Tower is simply too fast. It would be wonderful if other projects had such a large number of undead for experiments.” “
Other human experiments are explicitly prohibited by the Ethics and Morality Review Committee. If we conduct them without approval, we will be investigated. Even if we use black wizards for experiments, if the number is too large, it will still attract the committee’s review due to humanitarian issues.” “
But with these undead, even the last bit of concern and sympathy will be eliminated
. “
Locke nodded.
Locke stretched out his finger and immediately used the [Blooming and Falling] spell. The Molten Heart Soybean Warrior quickly withered and turned into three seeds.
While the liches were still in shock, an evolutionary moon descended from the sky, and the three seeds immediately grew into three Molten Heart Soybean Warriors. At that moment, three beams of moonlight shone on one of the Soybean Warriors.
The soybean warrior withered again due to the “Blooming and Falling” technique, producing three seeds.
Because of the continuous use of “Blooming and Falling” and the cultivation of magical plants, Locke had exhausted his remaining wisp of verdant spiritual energy.
Looking at the three seeds in his hand, Locke frowned. These were merely ordinary second-ring soybean warriors, not Molten Heart soybean warriors.
Although magical plant seeds would inevitably undergo phenotypic degeneration with each generation, this degeneration was too rapid. It was likely because the soybean warrior hadn’t produced any imaginary roots capable of absorbing Molten Heart’s energy; the previous wisp of Molten Heart’s energy had been infused by the plant itself. Therefore, the seeds in the third generation would degenerate back into soybean warriors. “
Using Molten Heart’s energy to cultivate soybean warriors is far too extravagant,”
Locke pondered. “Furthermore, I still need to solve the problem of the Multi-Eyed Pineapple—a Great Green Leaf Dragonfly—remotely controlling soybean warriors. It seems I need to find a lower-cost cultivation resource. If all else fails, I’ll use the Moon Cultivation Method to cultivate some soybean warriors with increased ice magic resistance and fire magic plant factors.” “But—”
The White Ice Tower is the top academy along the Tianjiang River.
Their ice magic isn’t ordinary; its freezing power can also freeze fire magic, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Locke. He thought of his Great Ming Dragon Sparrow and its spiritual essence.
Perhaps this could be used as a substitute.
Locke flicked his fingers, and moonlight shone on one of the soybean warriors. In an instant, the soybean warrior exploded.
Many undead around were swept into the Vermilion Bird’s fire and instantly perished.
With a bang, only the second-ring undead lich, who had transformed himself into a skeleton, crashed into the water wall. He survived.
He got up from the ground, his eye sockets filled with fear as the soul fire flickered. They thought they were about to defeat the soybean warrior, but the next moment, this happened.
Locke glanced at Wizard Gusta, who immediately ran to the control panel of the magic array, to a floating water magic wand, chanted a spell, and partially opened the water prison, allowing Locke to retrieve two Molten Core Soybean Warrior magic plants and two ordinary Warrior magic plants.
Locke pondered, “It seems the Vermilion Bird’s Spirit Breath and the Soybean Warrior are completely incompatible. The moment they come into contact, the Soybean Warrior will ignite and cause an explosion.” “
Then we can’t use the Vermilion Bird’s Spirit Breath.” “
How can we cultivate magic plants that can counter the wizards of the White Ice Tower before the March meeting?” “
Moreover, the imaginary root connection between the Multi-Eyed Pineapple—a Great Green Leaf Dragonfly—and the Soybean Warrior is also a problem.” “
And the biggest problem is that there seem to be not enough undead.”
The second-ring undead got up from the ground; his entire body was a white skeleton, and he seemed very happy.
“Hahaha—I survived! I survived!”
He pressed his fingers against the water prison, causing the flowing water to freeze into ice blocks. These ice blocks were instantly shattered by the water flow. The undead glared at Locke and the others with hatred, saying, “Let me out! Let me out!”
“I will kill you for revenge, Locke Augustine.”
“Just like those wizards of the Tide Wizarding Tower that I killed with my own hands, hahaha—”
He crushed the last magical artifact on his body, and a zombie who was once an ordinary first-ring wizard of the Tide Wizarding Tower appeared in the water prison. The wizard was a middle-aged man, who looked at the water prison with a puzzled expression.
“This is—this is the Tide Wizarding Tower’s special-grade laboratory.”
“Wasn’t I dead? Ah!”
The magic of the second-ring undead flowed into the middle-aged man’s body, forcing him to submit and causing him immense mental anguish.
“Master—”
“I will kill all your enemies.”
The second-ring undead laughed loudly, looking defiantly at Locke and the others outside the water prison.
The wizard Gustav’s eyes turned red with anger. He chanted a spell, and a stream of magic entered the water magic wand in front of him. Instantly, a huge water elemental appeared inside the water prison. However, before the water elemental could attack the second-ring undead, it was turned into a huge ice man by the second-ring undead with a spell.
The next moment, the ice figure shattered.
Countless ice blocks crashed against the surface of the rapidly flowing water prison. The wizard
Gustav, his face flushed, hurriedly maintained the magic circle. He frantically adjusted the water prison with his wand, barely managing to keep it from being destroyed.
Gustav was startled.
“Was that damned undead from the white ice tower deliberately provoking me, trying to get me to use water elemental attacks so it could convert the water elemental into ice elemental, which it could then use to break through the water prison?”
“That undead is too dangerous.”
Locke and Terence exchanged a glance.
Terence whispered, “My lord, I don’t know if you noticed.”
“This undead’s thoughts and ideas seem particularly disconnected. He was clearly so afraid of you before, and knew there was no hope of escaping from you, yet he still deliberately provoked you and even dared to be so hostile towards us. This disconnected thinking seems to be a consequence of his becoming an undead.”
Locke nodded.
“Death always takes something away from a wizard. However, we’re not wizards studying the psychic school, so we don’t need to delve too deeply into this area. From our previous observations, these spirits do indeed have personalities different from the living. They are more prone to extreme emotions, and their thinking and logic are fragmented, perhaps because they weren’t complete human beings.”
“Fragmented, I don’t think that’s quite right,”
Locke pondered. “It’s more like their thinking is unable to penetrate to the essence.”
Wizard Gustav said to Locke, “I know this second-circle lich; in his previous life, he was the renowned ice magic sage of the White Ice Tower, the Sphinx. Mr. Sphinx was gentle and exceptionally kind to ordinary wizards; I’ve heard that all his students spoke highly of him. It’s hard to imagine that such a person would become like this.” “He
seems different from the rumors.”
“Perhaps it’s a misrepresentation; perhaps he was always like this in life, but it could also be—”
“Furthermore, Sphinx has published some journals in the second ring, second district. It’s hard to imagine that his thinking wouldn’t be able to delve into the essence of things.”
Locke shrugged and said, “I have a joking guess that this undead named [Sphinx] might not even know if he is still [Sphinx] himself.”
Wizard Gustav turned around and looked at Locke with a puzzled expression.
Wizard Terence didn’t understand either.
Facing their questioning gazes, Locke said, “I just said it offhand. Mr. Terence, Mr. Gustav, please continue collecting data on the undead magic here. I need more complete information on the commonly used spells of the White Ice Tower.” “
I need to get more undead test subjects.”
Locke left the Tide Wizard Tower’s special-grade laboratory, then left the castle and came to a garden within the tower.
Locke pondered where to capture more undead and how to create a magical plant system that could perfectly counter the White Ice Tower’s magic.
Just then, Locke suddenly turned and looked towards a corner deep within the bamboo grove of the garden.
Locke said, “As a second-circle archmage, why hide? Can you come out directly?”
A second-circle wizard wearing a black hood emerged from within, without any wizarding insignia.
Locke glanced at him, puzzled. “What’s this, sir?”
The second-circle wizard took an object from his pocket—the symbol of Tianhanjiang Investment Bank—and whispered, “Mr. Locke Augustine, you seem eager to end this wizarding war.”
Locke asked, “What does the investment bank want with me? Is it because I recently dealt with a group of undead?”
The second-circle wizard chuckled, “Heh—undead, we don’t care at all. We have no interest in things that can’t make money or be invested in. We’re completely unrelated to such things. We only like things with investment value. And you are one of those.” “
We heard that you’re currently accelerating the development of a product that can make a decisive breakthrough, and that needs to be completed before the March meeting. You need a lot of money, and we—we happen to have nothing but money.
Mr. Locke Augustine, we want to invest in you. We’re prepared to invest fifty million magic stones in you, and all you need to do is one small thing.” “
And our investment doesn’t require any shares in return.”
Locke looked strangely at the suddenly appearing wizard from Tianhanjiang Investment Bank.
“So you exist in more than just this one wizarding territory along the Tianjiang River?”
“However, most of the valuable assets along the Tianjiang River should have already fallen into your hands. Aren’t you worried about the current chaos along the Tianjiang River?”
The second-circle wizard chuckled softly, “You jest. Lord Augustine, we are absolutely neutral, because whoever wins, we win. Except for the undead.”
“We are absolutely neutral. Our only request is that we invest 50 million magic stones in you, and in return, you have Silver Peach Garden repay the money it owes us. We don’t need to repay the money directly; we just need Silver Peach Garden to convert one-third of our debt from fictitious to legally recognized debt. That will suffice.”
The second-circle wizard bowed to Locke again, saying, “Please allow me to express my respect once more. You are the most outstanding breeder along the Tianjiang River. With our investment, you will surely be able to cultivate magical plants that will cause the White Ice Tower great losses. This is a considerable investment, a very large sum of money within the Tianjiang River region, and our Tianhanjiang Investment Bank is willing to invest in you in this way.”
Locke’s expression was strange.
The other party wanted to give him money, while making Silver Peach Garden owe the investment bank money.
This back-and-forth was quite troublesome.
It seemed that the Tianhanjiang Investment Bank was more complicated than he had imagined.
Locke, with his hands behind his back, said, “What, do you think I’m short of money right now and desperately need funding to conduct experiments?”
The wizard from Tianhanjiang Investment Bank said, “Respected Mr. Augustine, you deserve ample funds. If a breeder as excellent as you doesn’t deserve those funds, what breeder along the Tianjiang River does?”
Locke laughed, “I don’t lack funds.”
The second-ring wizard’s lower eyes, hidden behind his bird-beak mask, showed doubt, and his elegant and composed posture suddenly stiffened.
“I heard that you invested all the money you earned from the Great Azure Leaf Dragon Sparrow into opening a second Great Azure Leaf Dragon Sparrow service station next to the White Wizard Association headquarters. You must have done this out of the intuition and sensitivity of a top breeder, because you want to win the bid for the White Wizard Association headquarters for the interplane colonization war.” “
Although the Witch Rose also wants to win it. Your biggest rival is the Witch Rose. And among the other geniuses from other places along the Tianjiang River, apart from Wizard Apian of the Golden Dynasty, there is no breeder as outstanding as him. And Wizard Apian himself has recently encountered trouble; he didn’t get the first round of school funding.”
Locke said with his hands behind his back, “Your information is very well-informed. But I really don’t lack funds recently, because I’ve thought of a new way to supplement my funds.”
The second-circle wizard paused, taken aback.
Locke explained, “I recently discovered I can abduct the undead and capture the undead of the White Ice Tower for experiments.
They were already dead, not human to begin with. I even suspect they aren’t their original souls anymore; in other words, these undead and their original selves are two separate entities.” “
Therefore, abducting the undead is no problem for me. And so, I’m not short of money.”
The second-circle wizard was stunned. He had dared to sneak over here because he thought Locke desperately needed funds and wanted to invest.
But he hadn’t expected this wizard to come up with a new way to make money out of nothing.
This was too ruthless.
The second-circle wizard could no longer remain calm.
“Wait, you don’t need to distrust us. Our investment bank has substantial investments in the Southeast Corner and the Six Towers. Aren’t you surprised that those wizard families in the Six Towers are so wealthy? It’s not just about plundering resources from ordinary wizards; if that were all, they couldn’t possibly have that much money. Many family wizards in the Six Towers are important members of our investment bank, and Grand Wizard Sura holds a high position within us.” “
Our investment bank’s full name is Eastern Boundary Investment Bank. You’ve greeted us many times along the way, but you’ve never recognized us.” “
Therefore, you don’t need to distrust us. We’ve also been in contact with your friend, Ms. Alicia, since she’s about to take control of the Six Towers, which is one of the key regions for us to legitimize our wealth. We have a strong foundation for cooperation, and most importantly, you hold an important position in the Cloud Marsh Wetlands. If we join forces, you’ll become a key figure in our investment bank.”
Locke glanced at him. “No, I don’t need the money right now; I don’t need to resort to such methods.”
If he did, he would be offending his teacher, the Red Dragon Witch.
Essentially, he had done the same thing as the previous administrators of Silver Peach Garden—selling out its interests for personal gain.
This might seem like a minor or major issue,
but Locke suspected that if he gave this leverage to the investment bank, it could become a fatal problem.
Locke said, “This wizard, you may leave. I cannot accept your proposal, as I am not short of money.”
The second-circle wizard immediately bowed to Locke.
“I understand. It seems that what we asked you to do has offended you. Next time, we will propose something that won’t put you in such a difficult position. Perhaps then we can still cooperate.” “
You can trust us. Let me reiterate, we have absolutely no connection with those undead who have no purchasing power and no investment value. The Eastern Boundary Investment Bank despises anything worthless.”
The second-circle wizard maintained his bow, then retreated, disappearing into the bamboo grove of the public gardens of the Tide Wizard Tower.
After he disappeared, Locke finally figured out the steps he needed to take.
Using the Spirit Breath Cultivation Method is too late, and this project isn’t even worthy of it. The four cultivation methods, individually, are insufficient to fulfill my vision. Therefore, the best option is to use the Finite Element Cultivation Method to create swordsmen. Then,
use the swordsmanship method for breeding. “
Use a combination of the Moon Cultivation Method, the Magic Frequency Cultivation Method, and the swordsmanship method for cultivation, and then use the Synthetic Cube to accelerate it.”
Locke considered this. He could capture a large number of White Ice Tower undead to fight his own soybean warriors, then use the finite replication of the Tree of Prosperity and the ancestral evolution of the Evolutionary Moon to reduce the soybean warriors to level one magic plants. Then, using a large number of level one soybean warriors to fight the undead, he could stimulate a surge of evolution through the Moon Cultivation Method and the Magic Frequency Cultivation Method.
To achieve this, he would need to further develop his two ultimate magics.
But due to the accumulation of time, he did possess this ability.
Therefore, as long as he had enough undead and fully utilized his comprehensive strength, he would have the opportunity to do so.
As for using imaginary roots to create soldiers from beans, that’s simple. Just mount a Golden Dragon Claw Air Plant on a Great Green Leaf Dragon Sparrow, then use that plant to obtain the shared imaginary roots of the Styx Iron Tree. Use these shared imaginary roots to create soldiers from beans.
This is where the plant enlargement technology from the Wind Hunter’s Holy Land comes in handy.
You can create a massive Great Green Leaf Dragon Sparrow (transport type) and then use these transport-type Great Green Leaf Dragon Sparrows to manipulate the bean-to-soldier creation.
Locke had a clear idea. Now, the only thing he needed to do was—capture as many White Ice Tower undead as possible on the Wizard Battlefield!
Locke summoned the Great Ming Li Dragon Sparrow, and with a trail of flame, he vanished.
He was going to hunt down the undead on the White Ice Tower Wizard Battlefield.
A day later, as flames appeared across the sky, a group of White Ice Tower wizards fighting on the Wizard Battlefield all looked up at the sky.
The wizards of the White Ice Tower all paled.
Locke had already wiped out three wizarding battlefields in a single day, and this was the fourth, and the last large-scale wizarding battlefield on the eastern front of the entire Wizarding War. It was the border between two mortal empires, and a battle was raging between wizards from multiple intermediate academies belonging to the two major wizarding schools, as well as reinforcements.
At this moment, a chief wizard instructor leading the White Ice Tower team, a second-ring wizard, wiped the sweat from his brow, a hint of fear flashing in his azure eyes.
“I heard that a crazed Star Ring wizard has appeared on the battlefield, disregarding all shame and scruples, unafraid of the March Council’s sanctions, unafraid of the opinions of Wizard Chikunmoon and the Fura Association President, directly attacking low-ring wizards.”
“His actions have already broken the balance of the war.”
“He’s here.”
At this moment, the white towers atop the heads of all the White Ice Tower wizards began to melt under the intense heat, the melting ice magic turning into trickles of water that fell from their heads.
“Bang!”
The human chief wizard mentor of the white ice tower hurriedly tried to resist, summoning his ultimate spell, Ice Tower. A massive tower rose from the ground, about to ascend, but at that moment, a red moon suddenly descended from the sky.
The second-circle wizard froze.
“A red moon?”
The next moment, he was horrified to see that the red moon was entirely filled with flames.
As the red moon descended, his Ice Tower was forced to stop halfway up the ground.
The second-circle wizard was dumbfounded. “How is this possible? My ultimate spell was suppressed!”
On the battlefield, the wizards of the White Ice Tower, whether full-fledged wizards or apprentices, were all drenched in sweat. However, their sweat evaporated instantly, and they discovered they couldn’t use any ice magic, as it was completely suppressed.
Fortunately, the wizards of the Tide Grand Wizard Tower didn’t seize this opportunity to attack.
Their water magic was also suppressed by the overwhelmingly powerful fire magic!
The White Ice Tower’s chief wizard instructor, a second-ring wizard, swallowed hard. He hadn’t expected such powerful fire magic to exist in this world, and he certainly hadn’t expected to be so powerless before that Star Ring wizard, a once-dominant wizard along the Tianjiang River.
At that moment, a magical fluctuation flashed within his shadow reflected on the ground.
And suddenly, a second-ring Sea Gold Sand, wreathed in Vermilion Bird Stream Fire, appeared in the red moon, transforming into a Golden Fern Spear. This spear shot out and struck his shadow. His shadow let out a scream, and then, a second-ring undead crawled out from within the wizard’s shadow.
The second-ring undead tried to pull the sea gold dust stuck in its stomach, but the moment its hand touched the sea gold dust leaves, it screamed in agony.
The lich undead shrieked, “This isn’t fire magic! Fire magic is only good against low-level undead. Cremating corpses is useless against high-level undead modified bodies. This is—this is life magic! What kind of spiritual energy is this?”
He immediately realized that this was no simple fire magic.
The red moon in the sky and the flames wrapped around the sea gold dust were not ordinary things, but terrifying entities wrapped with some kind of higher-level spiritual energy.
The second-ring wizard of the white ice tower, the chief wizard instructor, grabbed the nameplate magic artifact worn on his chest. He was about to do something when he suddenly heard a voice in his ear.
“You’d better not use that necromancer. If you weren’t human, I could use you as my experimental subject however I wanted.”
“I’m reminding you because of the need to deal with the ethics committee.”
The wizard’s pupils suddenly contracted, because Locke had appeared beside him. Not only was his ultimate magic suppressed by Locke’s, but he hadn’t even realized how Locke had appeared beside him.
Was this the difference between a top-tier wizard from a prestigious wizarding school and himself?
So powerful—
At this moment, Locke reached out to grab the second-ring undead who had crawled out of the shadows. He had warned the wizard because if he threatened him and forced him to use the necromancer to become undead, and then captured him for experiments, it would still violate ethics.
If the ethics committee investigated him, this would be a major problem.
But this wizard, already an undead, was truly a gift from nature, to be taken at will.
The second-ring undead lich, watching Locke’s outstretched hand, had its pupils flickering with fear.
“You—what do you want to do? You’re too violent.”
He wanted to summon a white ice tower, but the problem was that Locke had concentrated a large amount of Vermilion Bird Spiritual Breath on the Evolution Moon, causing the Evolution Moon to produce its third form—the Red Moon.
Under the light of this Red Moon, the Vermilion Bird Spiritual Breath filled the air, suppressing his ice magic.
Even though they were both second-circle wizards, there was a significant level difference between them, as well as a difference in their academic backgrounds.
The gap between them was huge.
Therefore, he didn’t summon any white ice tower, only a white wisp of freezing air, which was quickly evaporated by the high temperature.
Locke immediately grabbed his neck, and at the same time, he mobilized the Great Ming Li Dragon Sparrow on his back, using the Vermilion Bird Spiritual Breath given to him by the Golden Dragon Wizard and the Sky-Full Tree to suppress the undead in his hands.
This undead lich was completely suppressed by the Vermilion Bird Spiritual Aura formed from this spiritual breath—a derivative second-circle minor spell of the Four Holy Blessings series of spells given to him by the witch Catherine—and was unable to use necromancy and ice magic at all.
Great Ming Li Dragon Sparrow—Vermilion Bird Spiritual Breath—Four Holy Blessings.
Each one is a top-tier magical inheritance.
There’s a significant level difference between Locke and him—the difference between a Star Ring and a Second Ring is enormous in the endless void.
“The Vermilion Bird’s Spiritual Breath is indeed one of the top-tier spiritual breaths,”
Locke mused. “I still have Azure Dragon’s Spiritual Breath, but unfortunately, I don’t have the imaginary roots to generate it. I can only use it once to obtain the Green Dragon Vine. But my teacher said there are two more Green Dragon Vines in this world; perhaps that’s the key to my sustainable acquisition of Azure Dragon’s Spiritual Breath.”
At that moment, a terrifying magical pressure erupted from the distance, and a Star Ring rose from the horizon.
“Mr. Augustine, you’re too audacious. How could you personally intervene and disrupt the balance of a lower-level wizarding land? Is this the responsibility of a breeding master from a higher-level wizarding land?”
Locke snorted coldly, completely unaffected by the other’s words.
He raised his hand and gently grasped at the sky, instantly a crimson moon falling into his palm. He plucked the moon from the sky, then hung it back up, this time a deep blue moon.
But this moon was larger than usual!
It was a supermoon!
As the moonlight fell, all the plants illuminated began to evolve and grow wildly, including a soybean seed that Locke had previously sown.
This soybean seed, after growing, began to mutate in the moonlight. This
was because Locke had imbued his ultimate spell, Evolution Moon, with the magic sun spell model. In other words, his Evolution Moon now combined the Moon Cultivation Method and the Magic Frequency Cultivation Method.
The Magic Frequency Cultivation Method was causing the illuminated magical plant to rapidly and randomly mutate, while the Moon Cultivation Method was allowing information from the plane of existence to flow back into the magical plant’s essence.
This was a double mutation!
Super Evolution Moon – Blue Moon—this was the ultimate spell he had forged and enhanced to upgrade the Great Azure Leaf Dragon Sparrow.
In this project, in order to achieve the expected development goals, he actually further honed his Great Magic, making it more worthy of the title, as a Star Ring Wizard should possess two forms of Great Magic.
At this moment, the Giant Soy Warrior began to mutate.
The Star Ring Wizard, who had rushed over from afar, with ten ice shards floating around him, saw the Giant Soy Warrior mutating and attacking the surrounding undead.
“Augustine—what exactly are you trying to do? What makes you personally intervene, so insane? We’ve tolerated you for too long. You—”
Locke looked at him and retorted, “I’m collecting the undead, a gift from heaven, to use as experimental subjects, is there a problem?”
The Star Ring Wizard was stunned. He wanted to refute, but suddenly realized that he couldn’t.
Because corpses have no human rights!
This is the ironclad rule of the White Wizarding Association. Anyone who dares to violate this rule will be attacked by the entire world.
Locke said, “Go back and ask your Master Chikunyue. Alright, don’t bother me. Unless you also want to compete with me for the undead. Do you want this undead?”
The Star Ring Wizard gritted his teeth. He considered the difference in strength between himself and Locke, especially after seeing the level of mastery Locke displayed in his Great Magic.
Although he was an old Star Ring Wizard, in this ordinary wizarding land, his mastery of Great Magic was inferior to Locke’s.
At least Locke’s Great Magic had already begun to take on a second form, looking quite impressive.
The old Star Ring Wizard waved his hand and said, “All human wizards of the White Ice Tower, follow me.”
“Let’s see if this Mr. Augustine dares to attack us human wizards in public.”
The undead of the White Ice Tower were dumbfounded. No, they were being abandoned like this?
Locke said, “I’m not interested in human wizards for the time being. You can leave. But please hurry.”
