Wizard: Become stronger by drawing cards from the potions variety show

Chapter 699 Harry’s Discovery

"I saw it."

The trajectory of the Zhou Tian circulation diagram has slowed down.

When Noah and Ava consciously guided the magic to flow along a specific trajectory, they soon noticed the difference.

A new law is growing within them.

The speed at which they multiplied exceeded their imagination and understanding.

[Holding onto the key to control]

The interpretation of this law itself is the definition of all conscious things returning to chaos, namely "death".

Is it possible that a single spell can generate such a complete and powerful law?
Noah and Ava exchanged a glance.

One can enhance their understanding of the laws through killing. With enough interpretation of specific things, one can even inflict several times the actual damage, and can directly touch the core of things through magic.

The laws brought about by the deadly grasp can complement the True Scripture of Penetrating Emptiness.

When the two are combined, the understanding of things will increase exponentially, and the destructive power will naturally be stronger.

The complete control over the situation was fully manifested in these two individuals.

Then it entered the sea of ​​consciousness of the two.

The gains were truly substantial.

A complete set of rules for death, along with corresponding magic; the two complement each other, and death can be declared as soon as the target is hit.

Noah suppressed his excitement and communicated with Ava to confirm that Ava was in good condition.

With the combination of the Void Scripture and the Dead Hand Seizure, the two of them simultaneously received their rewards.

“It’s amazing that we can share the rewards after we become symbiotic.”

Noah adjusted his mindset and continued with the subsequent training.

In the normal difficulty, Noah plays the role of a squad leader, with three team members. However, this time, the three are no longer teaching assistants, but ordinary wizards.

According to Noah's assessment, the strength of these three individuals, if converted to the difficulty of combat training, would be roughly between normal and difficult. They possessed some secret techniques, but they also had fatal flaws.

It can almost be seen as a budget version of the previous round of teaching assistants.

Those who excel at offense are not good at defense; those who excel at rescue tend to be conservative; and wizards who rely on amplification and support have extremely weak self-protection abilities.

Its strengths are obvious, and its weaknesses are also straightforward.

This mission is an assassination.

The leader of a cult is organizing a large-scale sacrificial ceremony, which will be successful once it is completed.

They need to work together to assassinate key figures under heavy protection.

Clearly, this training session tests the team leader's teamwork ability. If these individuals can be fully utilized, their potential is very high, enabling them to consistently demonstrate the strength of a wizard in difficult combat situations. However, if coordination fails and casualties occur, their exposed weaknesses could cause the situation to collapse rapidly.

Of course, there is more than one way to solve a problem.

For example, Noah chose a more direct approach, using Polyjuice Potion to infiltrate the scene and, in full view of everyone, used the Killing Curse to kill the person he needed to assassinate.

Of course, with no one watching, it naturally became an assassination.

There was a slight hiccup along the way. Although this cult was small, its leader had a good sense of security, controlling a puppet to take the lead while he himself mingled among the followers.

Unfortunately, Noah had no intention of letting anyone go. After killing the puppet on the stage with the Killing Curse and extracting its soul, he discovered that the target had already been killed long ago.

The mass killing curse instantly crushed everyone present.

Then comes the hard difficulty level.

On the hardest difficulty, the teammates were even more outrageous, slow to react, timid and hesitant, acting like complete novices.

Moreover, after the training failed, the system kindly displayed the panels of the three teammates.

"Fear of power, attachment to life, and dread of weakness"

The two black special marks were on the heads of the three people respectively.

Upon seeing this bizarre panel, Noah covered his face.

"As expected of the difficult difficulty level, they're all cowardly lizards. No, can these guys really pass the War Wizard's test?"

Their mission this time is to hold their ground. They need to defend their positions using magic arrays at specific locations while waiting for reinforcements.

As a result, not long after the battle began, his three teammates died one after another. The only thing they had in common was that they all died while trying to escape.

Deviating from the established order and running away, even if one survives, will still be wanted and executed upon returning. It's unbelievable that someone would make such an unwise decision.

Just ridiculous.

But this ridiculous decision was made by his own teammate, harming not only himself but also Noah.

Noah went all out, but he couldn't defend against the targeted attack. The disadvantage in numbers was on full display at this moment, and he was eliminated in a frustrating way.

Seeing the "Battle Failed" message on the results page, Noah decided to try again.

This time, when he faced the three who had escaped, he used the Soul-Stealing Curse to control them after they abandoned their posts.

Through the Soul-Stealing Curse, it was seen that the abilities of these individuals were extremely poor. Their magical skills were mediocre and unremarkable. Moreover, their inherent characteristics were constantly stimulating the will of these wizards, and their desire to escape was trying to awaken them to break free from control.

Noah sighed, knowing that he couldn't count on these people. Keeping them around would not only be of no help, but would also continuously drain his magic power.

However, before releasing control, Noah still cast Confusion and Induction spells on a few people.

This subtly signaled that these individuals were about to request assistance.

This can be considered as giving a few people a legitimate reason.

Meanwhile, he abandoned his stronghold and attempted to sneak into the enemy camp. If he could successfully decapitate the enemy, he might be able to buy some time.

Faced with the scattered escapees, the enemy quickly made a decision to send more people to pursue them.

They surrounded the stronghold, naturally not wanting to let a single person slip through. Although the guidance spells on these people were somewhat deliberate, what if it was just a feint to make them lower their guard?

As a result, the number of pursuers not only did not decrease, but actually increased compared to the previous time.

Noah's stealth was also unsuccessful; he was exposed when he was only 150 meters away from the enemy's position.

The extremely wide true sight range constructed by the enemy is itself composed of several invisibility, tracking, and marking spells, which basically prevents any possible concealment spells.

Noah's stealth abilities were quite good, but he was still marked.

Within a range of 150 meters, they were directly targeted by concentrated fire.

He had no choice but to confront them head-on. Layer upon layer of wide-range magic compressed his escape space, and Noah used a series of apparitions to cut into the enemy's ranks.

While avoiding large-scale spells, it can also create chaos on the scene.

When Noah unleashed his deadly combo, anyone with a lower magic level than Noah would suffer a crushing blow and death under the law of death.

However, the enemy also maximized their numerical advantage, killing them endlessly. As soon as someone died, someone else would take their place, filling the gaps as much as possible.

Noah brought his talent to its fullest potential. In the chaos of battle, the trajectory of every spell and the opponent's every offensive intention were reflected on the Zhou Tian Flowing Diagram. Thanks to the Dong Xu True Scripture, his perception was greatly enhanced, and his super-fast reaction was brought to its limit.

However, just as Noah was wreaking havoc...

A system notification has arrived.

The stronghold was lost, and the battle was lost.

He was ultimately just one person with limited abilities. Under these circumstances, he had already done his best to delay for so long. The enemy bypassed him and entered the stronghold, taking over the position.

Noah sighed. He tried a few more times, and the results were all pretty much the same.

He is very capable individually. In solo and small-scale operations, he can try to break through. He is also confident that he can run away if he wants to. However, if he needs to hold the position, he can run away, but the stronghold cannot be taken away.

The operation is considered a failure if any enemy enters the stronghold.

After several attempts, Noah still couldn't come up with any good ideas.

Therefore, we plan to continue with the training.

……

Harry proceeded steadily and entered the difficult team-based challenges. Although he failed a few times, Harry continued to try.

During his previous combat training, Harry gave up after a few attempts because he realized that he wasn't particularly talented in combat and that even if he continued, he would probably find it difficult to overcome the challenges.

However, things are different in teamwork. The reason he didn't give up was because Harry made an important discovery.

After the first attempt, the panel deliberately displayed the teammates' stats, focusing on their negative traits. This display felt a bit too deliberate.

Although the three teammates are like idiots, good for nothing but running away, the fact that they were able to pass the War Wizard's test and become War Wizards, and appear in this round of the competition, means that they must have advantages that can offset their negative traits.

With this in mind, Harry didn't give up on overcoming the difficulties of teamwork, but instead spent some time getting to know his three teammates thoroughly.

As he expected, things turned out exactly as he predicted.

These three teammates, despite having various negative traits, all share the same talent: runes.

Only after communicating with them did I learn that they were all in reserve as war wizards, or more accurately, they were in the stage of being pre-recruited and then gradually trained.

What they will need to learn next is runes and magic circles.

Every magic array wizard is a strategic force capable of influencing the course of battle; once trained, they can play a tremendous role.

This is also why these three people were admitted ahead of schedule despite their significant negative personality traits. On the one hand, magic array masters do not need to participate in frontline combat; they are often behind the lines of war, thus avoiding their negative personality traits. On the other hand, these individuals are simply too talented.

Harry smiled, looking confident and assured: "I already know what the test is."

"Teamwork is both now and in the future. The foundation of everything lies in familiarity with teammates. We need to see their talents, give them time to develop those talents, and find ways to help them grow."

"As for growth and development..."

Harry glanced at his potion-boosting system, the Super Training System, and activated it!

"Since we can generate a learning program for magic, we should be able to generate a learning program for runes as well."

"That's really good! But it's not enough. This cultivation cycle is a bit too long. We don't have enough time right now. Let's see if there are any more practical cultivation methods first."

"Hmm... Right now, we need to hold our ground and rely on the magic array. The enemy has a numerical advantage, so the most important thing about the magic array is its sturdiness. It would be best if it had other characteristics as well."

"Huh, this... seems to actually work."

As Harry's own needs were fed in, the potion-making system immediately generated several feasible solutions.

The one that suited Harry's taste best was this "Wall of Oaths"—magic originates from belief, and oaths are the most powerful spells.

Focusing on their beliefs, they use the blood curse as a bond to connect with the local environment.

Among these, belief is the most crucial and the core of all vows.

Harry nodded slightly. What could be more determined than those three guys? Their will to escape was so strong, their desire to survive so intense, that it could be sensed even without specific perception magic.

Harry had an idea in his mind.

As long as we unite our own people and directly instill their knowledge, allowing them to learn specific parts in a targeted manner, we can naturally save a lot of time.

Ok?
Harry suddenly felt a little dazed, as if this method was somewhat familiar.

Thinking about it more carefully, isn't this just like my own experience in "Little Potions Master"...?

Harry chuckled.

Sure enough, after experiencing how useful this method is, I naturally choose it, which shows a bit of path dependence.

However, it must be said that this is probably the best way.

This reduces the difficulty to a minimum. Now, we need to see if these rune geniuses with fatal flaws can succeed.

……

Alexei, Dennis, and Farin looked at each other in bewilderment.

They had just received the mission and hadn't even had time to learn the details before the squad leader put them in the rest room. Although it was called the rest room, the magic network was cut off, which was no different from solitary confinement.

"What exactly is going on? Why did the captain send us here?"

"Who knows? Maybe the captain has his own plans," Dennis said nonchalantly. "Trust the captain. He's young, but he's very capable. He broke through the encirclement single-handedly and brought back classified information. If it were me, I could never complete this mission in my entire life."

"Not to mention the missions the captain carries out later, which one isn't legendary? Hunting down cult leaders, chasing down S-class wanted criminals. With a captain like that, you can rest assured."

Farin couldn't help but say, "That's exactly why I'm worried. Our captain has always been on high-risk missions. Now that he's leading us, will it be another mission of the same level?"

Dennis was stunned for a moment: "No way..."

Alexei hesitated for a moment, then said, "That's possible, after all, we can't even open the magic network right now."

Just as the three were chatting, the door to the lounge opened.

"Don't worry, it's alright if the magic network can't be opened, I've prepared other things for you..."

Harry walked in through the door with a smile on his face.
