Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 478

Chapter 476: Chasing into Yunhu and Acting

On the judging panel, a three-ring wizard from the Rose Council commented, “I didn’t expect the Hydra Demon Plant to be able to function for quite some time without anyone controlling it. That little Yennefer guy completely miscalculated.”

“The evaluation of the Hydra Demon Plant needs to be raised even further.”

“This magical plant is very practical.”

The four three-ring wizards also nodded in approval.

Wizard John said, “Alright, the champion, runner-up, and third place are almost decided. We can let the machine spirit escape. If this continues, the machine spirit may be destroyed.”

“That’s not good.”

“I never expected that the Yunze Cup champion would be won by a wizard sponsored by the Six Towers. The two wizards in the Three-Ring Wizard research group could only get second and third place. This is something none of us had expected before.”

Dean Richie shook his head slightly. “But the quality of this Yunze Cup was already very high. After this one, it’s likely we won’t be able to replicate the grandeur of this Yunze Cup for a long time.”

“Every one of the top three is a former champion, and some even surpass them. Even the fourth place is at the average level of a former champion.”

“The Ancient Tree of Life, the Laurel Tree Man… and the Hydra Demonic Plant. It’s not just an honor for us contestants, but an honor for the Yunze Cup, that these three demonic plants can appear in the Yunze Cup.”

“These three wizards will become excellent breeders in the future.”

Witch Ekaterina pointed at the dome screen, and the entire steel fortress plummeted towards Cloud Lake. “Let’s let the Machine Spirit escape first. We didn’t anticipate a wizard capable of breaking the simulated permanent defense field.”

“Um?”

The five three-ring wizards were all stunned for a moment, because on the dome screen, the steel fortress suddenly separated itself into three parts, and each part used a rocket thruster to accelerate the separated part and separate it from the main body of the steel fortress.

This forced Wizard Edgar, Witch Diana, and Locke to stay above the Cloud Lake, and they could only watch as the main body of the Iron Fortress chased into the Cloud Lake and disappeared.

The steel fortress went straight into the Cloud Lake and disappeared completely, unlike before when it was wandering on the surface of the sea of clouds, attracting contestants to attack it.

But the next moment, Locke did something…

He used the archaeology spell, the historical pointer, to gather the surrounding negative energy particle field, then used the historical pointer to point in a specific direction, and immediately canceled the magic, allowing himself to see the result, and then immediately rushed under the Cloud Lake and chased after it.

The 130 judges in the judging panel were all stunned when they saw this scene.

Because before, Locke had demonstrated that he could break the simulated permanent defense field, and the consequence of Locke chasing after him would most likely lead to the complete destruction of the Vengeance Machine Spirit and the Mekanians.

The most important thing is that the entire scene just now was seen by paying viewers, and it is still being broadcast live.

Although the Yunze Cup is full of inside stories, it is a paid commercial competition after all, so at least the general audience cannot find out anything wrong.

And now Locke has caught up, and the Iron Fortress’s last resort has been cracked. In the eyes of the majority of paying viewers, doesn’t this mean that this Yunze Cup can completely put an end to the Mekanians?

The Mekanis who were allegedly harassing a specific lakeshore in the Yunze Wetlands have vanished. Should the Yunze Cup be held again?
And what’s the rationale for holding another one?
The three-ringed wizard from the Rose Council stood up. “What’s with this brat? He’s actually an archaeologist.”

Witch Ekaterina held her finger in mid-air, the corners of her mouth curling up. “This… is quite interesting.”

Wizard Richie was already wiping the sweat from his forehead. He looked at the constant barrage of cheers from the paying audience within the True Vision Crystal System and began to think about what to do. “Oh no! There’s been a livestream incident.”

“Quickly cut off the live broadcast and said it was due to technical problems, force majeure, and the live broadcast was temporarily interrupted.”

“Well, let’s just say that our system has never been below Cloud Lake before, so it can’t be broadcast.”

Witch Ekaterina said, “President Richie, you don’t have to take this so seriously.”

Dean Richie wiped his brow with a handkerchief. “Many of my Three-Ring wizard friends have bet on the Yunze Cup. The Yunze Cup involves so many things, how could there be an accident?”

“The Yunze Cup has long become a regular large-scale event in our Yunze Wetland.”

…

Below the Cloud Lake, Locke used the historical pointer to lock the direction of the Iron Fortress and rushed directly into it.

He jumped into the city of the Iron Fortress, and followed the Iron Fortress across the Cloud Lake area and into the bottomless pit below the Cloud Lake.

It was completely dark here.

There was no light at all, only the light coming from the Iron Fortress.

And in the light, there were many civilizations and magical creatures living on the walls of this bottomless pit. Locke even saw some simple stone houses.

But there was no one in those houses, only some bloodstains.

I don’t know what happened in the past and who would live here.

In an instant, Locke felt a huge pressure coming towards him. He was stunned for a moment, because under the Cloud Lake, there was actually a magic-absorbing land.

“No wonder the Mekani can roam freely beneath Cloud Lake. Above Cloud Lake is a naturally densely magical land, while below is a magically absorbing land. Countless magical tides are all sucked away by something beneath that bottomless pit.”

Locke’s nine layers of permanent defense force fields appeared. “Luckily, I have nine permanent defense force fields.”

Locke raised his right hand, and the Hydra’s body was quickly summoned by him to the bottom of the Cloud Lake. A large ball of chains completely wrapped around him, and nine crocodile heads floated behind him.

With the protection of nine layers of permanent defensive force field, the magic power in Locke’s body will not be sucked away by the mysterious power under the Cloud Lake.

But every time he took a step, the permanent defense force field would sway.

“What on earth lies deep in the bottomless pit beneath this Cloud Lake?”

Locke gritted his teeth. “Any wizard would be in great pain just entering this place. While this suction force won’t compete with a wizard’s mana, it’s enough to make it impossible for a wizard without a permanent defensive field to replenish their mana by using up a little mana here.”

“And the power of the spell is suppressed to the lowest level.”

“Only I, with my nine-layer permanent defense field, can slightly resist that suction force. In this harsh environment, I can barely recover some of my mana through the outside world.”

“The creatures living here are either creatures like the Mekanians, who don’t rely entirely on magic power to survive, or they are special life forms that have developed some kind of resistance in their bodies and can protect some of their magic power from this suction.”

“Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to find a way to replenish their magic power in this environment.”

At the same time, the machine soul inside the iron fortress projected an image on a magic crystal. She turned out to be a little girl in a pink dress.

The little girl’s spirit nervously sent messages to the higher-ups at Yunze Wetland. “I can’t act anymore! I can’t act anymore! Your people are charging straight into Yunhu and catching up with me.”

“He’s killing me.”

“Hurry up and make him stop.”

“What? There’s still a live broadcast? It hasn’t been cut off yet? You want me to continue acting? I can’t act anymore. That wizard has the means to track me. Even if we split the city again and throw him out, he will definitely catch up.”

The little Machine Spirit girl panicked and threatened the Yunze Wetland executives. “I’m going to sell all the shares I bought from your Yunze Wetland store alliance. If I die, I’ll immediately sell off the shares at a low price, causing your stock price to plummet!”

“You’re scared now, hurry up and find someone to save me.”
