Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 368

Chapter 366 The Retreating Pirate Witch

Locke chased along Channel 6, but strangely, he didn’t catch up with the trainer.

Just when Locke chased to a hall and wanted to take out three Rotten Earth Amorphophallus King Demon Plants from the Star Ring again and let these three Mayfly Fireworks search around.

Suddenly, a burst of magical light appeared in the circular living room, and a magic circle appeared on the ground. It was the magic circle of the protection school – forced exile.

But this is not a starting array, but a termination array.

I saw a dimensional door opening above the hall.

A woman with a shoe-horn face walked out of this dimensional door. She looked tired and her eyes were alert. She was wearing a white wizard robe and exuded a sacred light.

“who?”

The Holy Master looked at Locke, “Dark Wizard!”

A lightsaber condensed from holy magic appeared in her hand. It was the first-ring magic [Cross Holy Sword]. Every ray of light on this holy sword contained the terrifying energy of holy magic.

“Dark wizard, you dared to hijack a ship. This is a serious crime. Immediately…”

Locke showed his badge as a temporary consultant at Lilith’s cabin, proving his identity.

The divine priestess was stunned for a moment. “I’m sorry, I was tricked by those dark wizards and trapped. I finally used my trump card to escape early, but I saw you right after I emerged, so I mistook you for a dark wizard.”

Locke nodded. “I’m chasing a dark wizard I crippled. I chased him here, but I don’t know where he’s hiding.”

“Those dark wizards have the Eclipse Seed in their hands. If we let them come into contact with the energy core of the Void Battleship, we will be in trouble.”

The Divine Priestess landed on the ground and nodded in agreement. “In that case, there are two passages here. You go down that one, and I’ll go down this one. How about we each go down one?”

Locke glanced at her and realized that she was a wizard in the liquefied stage. He was immediately relieved. “Yes, no problem. I have already killed the only wizard in the gaseous stage. It shouldn’t be a problem for you to chase them.”

The two of them separated at the fork in the road in front of the hall, entered a different passage, and chased forward.

Locke chased for about five minutes and suddenly stopped at the entrance of a passage. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized that something was wrong with the Holy Mother Saint, so he turned around and immediately returned to the hall.

As soon as he returned to the hall, he saw a joker card stuck on the ground. On the back of the joker card was the image of a female magician.

Moreover, Locke saw through the observation window of the Golden Crystal of Time at the top of the hall that there was an escape flying device outside the Sun-Chasing Silver Shuttle, which had already left the Void Battleship and fled into the distance.

At that moment, the magic lights in the hall suddenly returned to normal.

The sound transmission array also began to operate, and a nervous voice emanated from within. “Everyone, please don’t panic. This airship was just attacked by dark wizards, but they have already fled. We are currently expediting repairs and counting casualties. The crew of this airship will be held accountable for any casualties incurred during this journey.”

Locke saw that outside the observation window of the Golden Crystal of Time, the Sun-Chasing Silver Shuttle was slowly flying away from the huge magic painting in the outside world.

“The female divine master just now should be the female magician in the Magic Thieves Circus.” Locke pondered, “It’s just that the magic pressure she showed me before was only that of an ordinary wizard, but the female divine master just now was in the liquefied stage, so I subconsciously ruled out this possibility.”

“But if I recall the situation carefully, there are quite a few flaws.”

“They actually let them escape like this.”

Locke recalled that the female magician might not have appeared in front of him in her true form from the beginning.

The body under the magical pressure of an ordinary wizard is probably either a puppet or another wizard controlled by her.

She was in this hall, pretending to use a forced exile to seal herself, waiting for herself to get close, and then walked out of it to confuse herself and make herself think that she was also a sealed white wizard.

Moreover, the other party deliberately disguised himself as a Holy Master. Everyone knows that a Holy Master is a demonic wizard who is not inferior to the Jungle Hand. So when he heard that a Holy Master was going to hunt down a black wizard, he would subconsciously think that this problem would be solved.

Therefore, they will relax their vigilance.

Locke looked out the Golden Crystal’s observation window at the small, fleeing Voidship and shook his head slightly. “This Magic Thieves Circus is truly a bunch of charlatans. I’m afraid the clown isn’t the leader at all. The real leader is the female magician who’s behind everything.”

“I don’t know if I’ll run into them again next time. These guys are active on the routes of wizard airships, so maybe I’ll run into them again. But this time, they should be impressed by me.”

…

Inside the small voidship, the female speed painter supported the animal trainer with a grim expression on her face.

She carried the wailing beast trainer to a simple operating table on the voidship and examined the wound using instruments like tweezers. “It’s a golden magic. The golden sand has remained in your wound, causing you unbearable pain.”

“Boss, we’ve lost too many people this time. The clown is dead, the puppeteer was captured, and the animal trainer was beaten half-crippled. There are six people in our circus, and three of them were crippled by the enemy. Now there are only you, the boss, and the fortune teller left in our circus.”

The speed painter frowned. “Besides, we barely managed to loot any valuables this time, so we were forced to retreat. Boss, why don’t we keep fighting? The three of us can surround and kill that Qi-transformation wizard. I think we can still do it!”

The female magician gave her a cold look and said ruthlessly, “Speed Painter, let me ask you, who are we?”

The speed painter was stunned.

The female magician placed one hand on her waist and said, “We are a circus, thieves, pirates on airships. So it’s only natural that we’ll be hunted and killed. From the first day we joined, I’ve told you that revenge is not a concept in the Magic Thieves Circus. If you die at the hands of those white wizards, it’s simply because you’re not as skilled as them.”

“The circus will never avenge you. This is our way of survival. If you come to Wuying and go to Rufeng’s circus to seek revenge, you will destroy the only way we can survive, even if it means destroying ourselves.”

The speed painter said: “But…”

The female magician said, “The puppet the puppeteer made for me was destroyed by a white wizard on that wizard ship. There were far more than just one Eye Demon wizard on that ship as our enemy. Before I made the decision to retreat, I consulted a fortune teller to calculate the possibility of us surrounding and killing the Eye Demon wizards.”

The speed painter immediately looked at the fortune teller, a middle-aged man in a black wizard robe. He shook his head slightly and said, “I used the spirit bone cards to divine, and the undead told me… if we were to surround and kill the Eye Demon Wizard, we might succeed, but our circus would be completely destroyed.”

The speed painter’s face paled. “How is that possible… Is that White Wizard so powerful? The boss is a wizard in the liquefied stage, and he can still defeat him?”

The fortune teller himself was a little unsure and said, “Anyway, judging by the divination results, this is what it shows.”

The female magician said, “This time it’s our fault, or rather, it’s my fault as the planner. I really underestimated that white wizard, causing our circus to suffer such a huge loss.”

“The Eye Demon Wizard… How come I haven’t heard of such a powerful figure before? Has he always stayed in a wizarding land and rarely come out?”

“Our circus only operates on the airship route. Ordinary wizard organizations have rarely heard of us. Only those wizard organizations that operate airships are familiar with our name. I guess that wizard was previously a teacher at the wizard academy, taking the conventional route. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have heard of us before.”

The female magician gritted her teeth. “From now on, before you act, check the passenger information. If his name, Locke Augustine, appears again, stop the operation immediately.”

“We are thieves, not warriors. We must not touch any sharp objects.”

The circus members fell silent.

The female magician Zoe turned her head and looked behind her. The Golden Crystal of Time observed the empty second sky outside the window. “The White Wizards Association… I miss that name so much. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard of it. For a moment, I really miss those sanctimonious guys.”

“Let’s sort it out. Although we didn’t make much profit from this robbery, we can still make back our money. After all, there are a few less mouths to feed.”

“We can’t make any major moves in the near future, so we can’t attack the airship. If we attract the intervention of the second-ring wizards of the School of Prophecy, even if we have magic weapons that can block prophecy magic, we won’t be very safe.”

“In the near future, we can rob a slightly larger wizard ship. Even a little bit of meat is still meat. By robbing the astral rings of the official wizards on the wizard ship, we can still accumulate some magical resources.”

The female speed painter looked at the pirate witch Zoe, as if remembering something, and said, “Oh, Boss, I remember you said before that you were a white wizard. Even among white wizards, you have a distinguished family background. Then why do you want to be a dark wizard like me?”

“And you’re doing the hardest and most tiring job of a pirate, even among dark wizards. You obviously have such a distinguished family background…”

Witch Zoe’s expression was filled with secrecy. “Speed Painter, don’t ask questions you shouldn’t ask.”

“I never want to have anything to do with those white wizards again.”

The female speed painter nodded. “But thanks to the boss, without his familiarity with the operation and defense systems of these discarded, old, dilapidated void warships, we wouldn’t have been able to expand our business to this point.”
