Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 324

Chapter 322 Death of an Old Friend

Locke confirmed that his pharmacy was fine, so he chose to temporarily return to Lilith’s cottage to sort out his current magic power.

He had just been promoted to a formal wizard and had encountered a series of battles, during which he had gained considerable gains.

Secondly, his own magic power is currently fluctuating due to continuous fierce battles, and must be tamed to avoid any future troubles.

Generally speaking, a formal wizard who has just been promoted and broken through may even need some time to repair his soul.

The act of engraving a spell model at the soul level will cause some damage to the soul, and it will take some time to recover.

But because Locke used a magic knife, he didn’t have this problem.

Secondly, he had to sort out his current resources as quickly as possible and immediately replenish his first-level spell pool, otherwise he would be at a great disadvantage in the battle.

The reason why he was able to kill Brittany before was entirely because she fell into a special place – a closed barrier and could not escape.

Otherwise, he would not be able to catch up with her with just his Big Blue Owl Bajiao.

Locke glanced at the big green owl banana behind him, and saw that in the continuous battles, the roots of the big green owl banana had become charred and had reached a certain limit.

Locke suddenly realized that someone seemed to be observing him. He frowned slightly and looked around, but found no one around.

…

On a mountain next to Lilith’s cottage, which was connected to part of the Forbidden Forest, the King of the Forbidden Forest and the Silent Bee Fairy appeared among Lin Mu’s feather leaves.

Silent Bee Fairy said, “It’s finally over. The war between human wizards was truly terrifying. They summoned horrible, horrible things. But fortunately, that Type I Nature Guardian performed well, didn’t he?”

“He used the city’s forest to suppress that strange creature, but in my opinion, the forest’s seal on it will only last about ten years at most. It will soon find a new way to cooperate with a wizard it can easily exploit, and then try to break free from the forest’s suppression.”

“I didn’t expect the wizards to allow something so troublesome to re-enter this world. I thought the disc creatures would completely leave this world. However, this matter is not something we need to worry about. Those wizards are more powerful than we imagined. Perhaps, if those wizards become stronger, it will be of great benefit to us.”

“Lord of the Forbidden Forest, you don’t seem to care much about this.”

The King of the Forbidden Forest looked in the direction of Lilith’s hut, was silent for a while, and then said: “The affairs of humans and wizards have nothing to do with us.”

“Planted forests are not forests either.”

“I’m here just as a spectator.”

The King of the Forbidden Forest turned and left, leaving behind a series of animal footprints on the ground. “Let’s go, Momofeng.”

The silent bee fairy was stunned for a while, then said: “You say one thing and mean another.”

…

Three days passed after Locke returned to Lilith’s cabin.

Within three days, Locke learned that many wizard apprentices had died in the turmoil.

The incident was defined as a sudden attack on Lilith’s hut by a dark wizard.

The inside story and the truth were not disclosed to the apprentices.

During this turmoil, both Laun and Pierre survived.

The same goes for his friends Angel and Aisi, but Angel lost an arm and he has no money for treatment for the time being, so he can only use one arm for now.

But a wizard seed that he knew died, the Burning Master Andy.

At this time, Locke, Albert and others, as well as Andy’s friends, attended a small funeral for Andy.

At the funeral, Albert presented a bouquet of white chrysanthemums and placed it on Andy’s tombstone.

This cemetery was prepared by Lilith Cottage for students above the second-class wizard apprentice level. Only second-class wizard apprentices and above have the right to be buried here. Of course, the grave site needs to be purchased during one’s lifetime.

Albert looked at Andy’s tombstone and sighed. “Andy’s best friends were me, Sophia the Witch, and Mitchell Peric the Stormer.”

“Now that you’re all here, it’s a pity that Witch Sophia left the Southeast Corner. Otherwise, she would have come to mourn him.”

Mitchell Peric is the captain of a combat team whose right eye is a demon eye. He also has a sigh on his face at this moment.

Mitchell’s eyes flashed with anger. “I, Perrick, will never coexist with those dark wizards. From now on, I will kill every dark wizard I see.”

Locke looked at the tombstone. Who could have thought that a wizard seed as powerful and good at fighting as Andy would die in this war.

And all this was just because Dean Thompson made a deal with the top leaders of the White Wizard Association.

The wizard apprentices participating in the gathering, even those wizard seeds, did not know the truth inside. Even if someone noticed something was wrong, it was just a simple guess.

Locke did not give any reason.

Locke walked over, and Andy’s seniors and juniors, as well as Andy’s mortal family members in Lilith’s Cottage, all saluted and saluted Locke, expressing their gratitude that an official wizard had condescended to participate in Andy’s funeral.

Albert looked at Locke and said in a low voice: “Locke, you have become an official wizard. Congratulations.”

“Just like Witch Sophia, you all became official wizards very quickly, in the blink of an eye. It makes us feel as if we are not in the same world as you.”

Albert saluted Locke. Now that Locke was a formal wizard, he was still a first-class wizard apprentice with a magic power of 900.

Moreover, there are already some wrinkles on his face, showing signs of aging.

Half a year ago, Albert had tried to break through to become a formal wizard and even took a sacrificial potion, but the result was disappointing and he failed to break through.

Of course, although he burned about fifty years of his life, Albert still escaped unscathed. Before his life was burned out, he took the termination potion he had bought in advance.

Therefore, his current mental strength is 900. Although he failed to break through this time, as long as he repairs his soul and nurtures it for a few years, he can try to break through again.

Moreover, the success rate will be higher.

This is also a common state among apprentices in the academy who have broken through to become formal wizards.

Few people can break through the first time.

The reason why Locke was able to do this was because he had consumed a large amount of magic resources in advance, and then used sacrificial magic to fully utilize these magic resources at once, and as a result, he rushed forward directly.

In addition, the ancient biological blood in his body produced a certain resonance with the natural force plane, resulting in a backflow of natural force.

Albert looked at Locke with a hint of envy and a jealousy he couldn’t suppress. Then, under Locke’s immense magical pressure, these emotions turned into respect. “Master Augustine…”

Locke shook his head. “Senior Albert, just like you said before, we can call each other by our own names and don’t need to be influenced by outsiders. So you can still call me Locke.”

Albert looked at Locke and noticed the sincerity in Locke’s eyes hadn’t changed at all. He then said, “Locke. Andy’s mental state hasn’t recovered since his last operation. He almost single-handedly endured the high-level curser’s permanent defensive force field, the [Fear Blood Curse]. After that, not only did he not recover from the injury, but his condition worsened.”

“That’s why Andy died in this war. Otherwise, with his abilities, how could he die at the hands of an ordinary first-class dark wizard apprentice?”

Locke nodded slightly. At that time, he had killed five wizard seeds of the Blood Curse Court by himself. Together with Severin, he had actually killed ten wizard seeds of the Blood Curse Court by himself, leaving only four. One of them, Hussein, was beaten half to death by him. He only let him escape on purpose.

In other words, he single-handedly killed seven wizard seeds of the Blood Curse Court, and another wizard seed died at the hands of Albert.

When attacking Lilith’s hut this time, the Blood Curse Court did not have many wizard seeds left, so Andy died under the siege of ordinary black wizard apprentices.

Albert said, “But this time you killed five wizard seeds from the dark wizards with your own hands and avenged Andy. As Andy’s best friend, I want to thank you.”

Albert bowed to Locke, and Andy’s parents and family followed suit and bowed to him.

They were not from the wizarding world, but they knew at this moment that Locke had an extraordinary status, and his sad eyes showed respect for them.

Locke nodded slightly.

Then he turned and left the cemetery.

In the next fifty years, the war will intensify, and such scenes will become more and more frequent in the southeast corner.

And just as Dean Thompson said, no one can stop this war, because the white wizard society has established a wartime economy, and it is unknown how many official wizards will benefit from it. Therefore, no official wizard will be willing to stop the war at this time.

Locke walked into Teacher Harun Vera’s office. Teacher Harun Vera contacted him through the gray mist slate, as if he had something he wanted to deal with.
