The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 322 Pay the money and you won’t be killed
Following Richard's order, the witch hunting team rushed across the middle area between the two positions in an instant like four black lightning bolts.

In their hands, the roaring chainsaw swords were wrapped with white and purple energy arcs, and when they were swung, they were like golden thunder.

When faced with the wizard's obstruction, the chainsaw sword cut through the magic barrier like cutting butter, and cut the wizard inside as well.

"Enemy attack!"

Amid the fierce shouts of the wizards of Meteorite Academy, the third alarm sounded at the defense line of Meteorite Academy.

The wizards inside the defense line began to move together quickly. Thirty years was enough time for the black wizards to become as good at coordinated operations as the white wizards.

Dozens of powerful spells pierced through the blood mist exploding from the wizard's body and shot towards the witch hunting team.

Rumble!
The shock wave carried the flames and instantly formed a wall of fire.

The gathered wizards did not naively wait for the flames to dissipate, but began preparing for the second round of spells after the first spell was fired.

If you encounter a wizard, this strategy is undoubtedly the most effective and safest strategy.

But unfortunately, this time they encountered Richard's witch hunting team.

A large square shield broke through the flames and crashed into the nearest wizard like a bull. The huge force instantly shattered all the bones in the wizard's body.

The second round of casting now came, but this time the wizards saw clearly the effects of the spell.

"Retreat quickly!" a second-ring shapeshifter shouted in shock.

Dozens of spells fell on the witch hunting team as silently as raindrops.

Facing armor plates that could withstand spells of four thousand energy levels and large metal shields that could withstand spells of six thousand energy levels, these wizards' spells were as weak as water guns.

The chainsaw sword swung, bringing up a bloody mist.

The wizards of Meteorite Academy began to use all their skills to escape.

The witch hunting team is definitely not an opponent they can resist.

Richard followed the witch hunting team in. Looking at the wizards groaning on the ground, Richard smiled slightly and then shouted to the back:
"The necromancers will take care of the wounded, and the wizards behind will follow!"

No one at Meteor Academy noticed that the wizards who were cut by the chainsaw swords were still alive, even the wizard whose bones were shattered was still groaning.

The vitality of a dark wizard is even stronger than that of a cockroach.

Subsequent wizards came in and looked at the wounded all over the ground, and cast admiring glances at Richard.

"Master, what should we do with these wizards?" asked an undead wizard with blue soul fire burning in his eye sockets.

Richard looked at the wounded all over the ground and a bright smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I think these wizards would be happy to trade their magic pockets for their lives, what do you think?"

The necromancer chuckled, and the soul fire in his eye sockets flickered twice.

"I think so too."

Pay money and avoid killing, this is the decision Richard made in order to maximize his benefits.

The witch hunting team's strength can easily break through the defense line and slaughter the wizards in the defense line. However, doing so has limited benefits and is likely to cause the Meteor Academy to bear grudges.

And if these wizards were seriously injured but not killed, Richard's benefits would not be reduced much.

The wizards of Meteorite Academy also want to do Richard a favor.

It is better to have more friends than more enemies.

Besides, doing so would only cause trouble to the witch hunting team. Most of the wizards on the defense line were not even strong enough to leave a scratch on the witch hunting team's armor.

This is the individual armor whose material cost alone is over 100,000 magic essences, which brings confidence to the witch hunting team.

"You can give one quarter of the magic stone in your pocket to each of you. You can copy the notes, but the original must be kept by me. You can take the staff, but keep the magic suit for me."

The necromancer respectfully performed a wizard salute to Richard.

"Don't worry, we understand."

……

The witch hunting team advanced quickly and broke through the defense line in two or three minutes.

The wizards who arrived later followed the gap created by the witch hunting team and continued to expand it. A large number of alchemy wizards began to build new defensive positions on the ruins.

The witch hunting team was divided into two teams according to Richard's order to expand the gap in the defense line and block the second-ring wizards who came to support.

Buzz!

The roaring chainsaw sword slashed on the magic shield, causing ripples.

Kava looked at the old wizard in front of him with some surprise. This old wizard was the first wizard he had met on this line of defense who could block the chainsaw sword.

Although the barrier was about to crumble under the chainsaw sword, it was finally blocked.

"Damn it, you guys are so unruly, aren't you afraid that the war will get out of control?"

The old wizard looked at Kava with gritted teeth. Kava did not turn on the closed mode, so the old wizard could feel that there was a third-level creature staying in this steel giant.

In this battlefield filled with first- and second-ring wizards, a third-level creature wearing armor that is highly resistant to elemental damage is almost the same as a tank.

No, the Witch Hunt is much more flexible than a tank.

"Not following the rules? You're slandering me, old man!"

Richard's voice came from behind Kava, and then a black shadow appeared beside the old wizard and smashed the old wizard's crumbling magic barrier with a punch.

The old wizard was startled and was about to wave the staff in his hand.

But the shadow's fist was faster than his.

boom!
A bloody hole was punched in the old wizard's chest.

The old wizard's heart turned into a ball of bloody mist under this punch.

Richard retracted his fist and said, "To be honest, you are the ones who are not following the rules.

At least I saw with my own eyes your three-ring wizards hunting down the two-ring wizards from our academy."

The old wizard stood trembling, unable to utter a word.

The disruption of the magic power return caused him to temporarily lose the ability to cast spells instantly.

Richard took out a few magic-sealing nails from his pocket and casually nailed them on the old wizard.

"But it's your business if you don't follow the rules. I like to follow the rules and I'm very kind.

We are all wizards, there is no need to fight to the death.

Give me your magic pocket and magic suit, and I will let you live until the end of the war.

You won't lose out on this deal." The great wizard opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of black blood, which was full of tiny pieces of internal organs.

He wiped his mouth and said with a depressed look:
"I agree to the deal."

As he said this, the old wizard untied the magic pocket around his waist and handed it to Richard.

Richard nodded in satisfaction and smiled kindly at the old wizard, "I knew that the master would make the right choice. Magic stones and magic armor are external things, and life is the most precious thing for a wizard."

Richard waved his hand, and an undead wizard who was cleaning up the wounded threw the wounded to the ground and came to Richard.

"Master Richard, what do you want?"

Richard pointed at the old wizard on the ground and said, "Arrange a better room for the wounded for this old gentleman."

"No problem, I'll take care of it."

……

The sudden attack by the Black Tower Wizard Academy did not surprise the Meteorite Academy, but the results achieved left the Meteorite Academy dumbfounded.

In just half a night, the Black Tower Wizarding Academy had carved out a huge gap in their direction and was expanding the gap at an alarming speed.

However, this phenomenon did not last long.

As the first rays of dawn appeared on the horizon, the expansion of the Black Tower Academy wizards also stopped.

At this moment, more and more wizards gathered at the front line, and even the witch hunting team did not dare to attack rashly.

Reality is not a game. Although their individual armor can withstand elemental spells of level 4,000, it does not mean that those spells have no effect on the armor.

Water dripping can wear away a stone, let alone magic.

When attacked by elemental spells to a certain extent, the external armor of an individual armor must be replaced.

If they are not replaced, these armor plates will develop cracks due to unstable internal structure, and in more serious cases, they may even break.

Moreover, it is extremely troublesome to recycle those discarded armor plates, and they can hardly be used as raw materials for armor plates again.

This also made Richard temporarily afraid to let the witch hunting team forcibly tear through the defense line.

The density of wizards on the front line now is not comparable to when they launched a sneak attack. By that time, the armor plates will be destroyed and he won't even be able to repair them.

So within a short period of time, both sides started a sit-in war again.

……

Temporary Command of the Recovered Area
Richard holds a crystal ball and contacts Joe Lord in the Central Black Tower.

"Teacher, what are our results?" Richard asked.

There was silence on the other side of the crystal ball, and then Joe Lord's surprised voice was heard.

"...So far, it's pretty good. Our occupied areas have achieved our initial goals, and even exceeded them a little.

As long as we can hold out for seven days, this war will be over."

Listening to the results of the battle, Richard made a steady gesture to the wizards around him.

When the other wizards saw Richard's gesture, they were immediately delighted.

"It's fine as long as we achieve our goal." Richard said with a smile, "The wizards of Meteor Academy have already gathered together. If we don't achieve our goal, it will be difficult for us to take it away."

In terms of numbers, the Black Tower Wizarding Academy has always been at a disadvantage.

If the advantage of surprise attack is lost, it will be difficult for Black Tower Academy to achieve the same results as today.

“Don’t be careless, your next task is still very difficult, and the seven days have just begun.

Although your fire lizards are very powerful, they alone are far from enough to stop the offensive of Meteorite Academy.

The House War is ultimately a battle between wizards."

"Don't worry, teacher. I still understand this."

After a few more pleasantries, Richard ended the call.

Richard is currently the commander of the temporary command post. As the vanguard in tearing apart the defenses of Meteorite Academy, Richard deserves this position.

But with power comes responsibility.

Richard now needs to coordinate a lot of things, and he must take advantage of this short period of time to build as many fortifications as possible.

And prepare a response strategy when Meteorite Academy launches a strong attack.

A first-ring wizard brought a map of the recovered area. Li looked at the map and rubbed his brows with a headache.

"Alas, it's really hard to get the dean's salary."

……

Meteorite Academy Command Post
“Yes, according to the wizards who retreated, it was four black steel golems that broke through our defense line this time.

These golems have been specially treated to have excellent protection against elemental spells, and the weapons in their hands are also very effective against magic barriers. "

……

"I am very sure, because this conclusion is not the words of a single wizard, but the result of our summary of the statements of a large number of wizards."

……

"Okay, okay, got it. I'll do it right away."

After ending the call, Crispin rubbed his temples with a headache.

"Master Qike, it seems we made a wrong judgment back then."

Zeke, who sat opposite Crispin, held a cup of magic tea in his hand. The rising steam blocked his eyes, making it hard to tell what he was thinking.

"Indeed, what the little guy said back then was true. This was my mistake."

Crispin shook his head: "I have also made a judgment, how could it be a mistake made by a wizard like the Master.

The most urgent task now is how to deal with these four golems."

Zeke was silent for a long time, and the magic tea in his hand became lukewarm.

Finally, Zeke seemed to have made a decision.

"Well, it's the end, let the war escalate.

Call all the three rings. They have been idle for thirty years. It is time to move around and bring some face to the dean."
