Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 87 Return to the Witch Tower
"No, you can't kill me... Don't kill me!"

Feeling Roy approaching, Melina's face turned pale as paper and her body trembled slightly.

She tried to get up again, but it was difficult because the blackening potion was constantly corroding her flesh and destroying her functions.

He could only maintain his limp posture on the ground, breathing slightly with his eyes blind.

"I was wrong, Roy!
I shouldn't have come after you thinking you were easy to bully because you were new to the job."

Melina said in frustration.

Roy was slightly surprised: "That's it?"

He also found it strange that Melina was chasing him like an enemy.

It turns out that you only pick on the weak.

"I violated my covenant and my oath, which is why I have suffered this misfortune. I am willing to accept the punishment and use the treasure as compensation...

Treasures. By the way, there are several treasures in my space ring, all of which were obtained in the Cretaceous Kingdom.

This is the treasure trove we are exploring on this trip. The things inside are profound. Don’t you want them?”

Melina's voice was full of seduction.

"If you're willing to let me go, I can give you anything!

But if you're not willing to let me go, you'll get nothing!"

For a moment, Roy was really moved.

He knew Melina was telling the truth.

Killing a spellcaster who possesses a storage device does not necessarily guarantee that you will get the treasure.

These things are locked with secret seals. If you try to crack them with technical means, at best you will just get an uncertain "treasure chest". What you get out of it is entirely a gamble of luck.

Brute force cracking is even more likely to fail.

The space ring is something that involves the power of space and is not so easy to crack.

But the hesitation only lasted for a moment.

Roy thrust his sword forward, piercing her heart as she was stunned and stunned.

"Roy!"

Melina was very tenacious. Even though her heart was pierced, she still stood firm, gritted her teeth and tried to resist.

Only then did Roy realize that the color of her blood was a little off.

It seemed to be a method of transforming the witch's body similar to using one's own blood mercury, or it might be a transformation for the purpose of maintaining eternal youth.

Although the energy density of witchcraft is far less than that of his own blood mercury, the weakness of the heart is also eliminated, and it will not be so easy to die from being pierced in the vital parts.

At this moment, Roy suddenly realized that a spiritual force was trying to communicate with the ring.

Melina was trying to take something out of it, but because she was seriously injured and her mind was a little dazed, she failed to succeed immediately.

"I knew it wasn't that easy!"

Roy snorted coldly, still decisively pulling out his sword and slashing it down.

This time the attack was so powerful that it shattered her skull and the brain inside.

A faint figure, like a wandering soul and flashing with a faint white light, floated up.

Roy was slightly surprised, and then realized that this was Melina's ghost.

I don't have any powerful enough witchcraft now to destroy the flesh, blood and soul together.

Melina's spiritual power must be strong enough, or she may have practiced some secret method, so she can remain for a short time.

Melina was so angry that she was shaking all over: "Why? Why do you have to kill me?
I've already surrendered!"

"I'm sorry, but I can't tell whether you're sincere or not.

If I already possessed wizard-level strength, perhaps I would be able to let you go.

But now, I can only ask you to die."

Roy retreated cautiously while saying in a deep voice, "I hate it!"

Feeling Roy's determination, Melina's remaining soul was completely desperate.

"Almost! Almost!
......"

She chanted the spell unwillingly, and her low murmur sounded in the air, shaking the surrounding void.

Roy was shocked: "No way, he can still cast spells even in this state?
Wait, what kind of spell is this? It doesn't sound like the "summoning spell" I chanted before!

He quickly hid far away, ready for a new round of battle or even to flee.

But he soon found that his worries were unnecessary.

It would have been fine if Melina hadn't chanted the spell, but once she did, she violently mobilized her spiritual power, accelerating her demise a thousandfold.

Her soul was struck by lightning, and suddenly she felt that all her senses were disappearing.

"what!"

Amidst the wailing, his form dispersed like smoke, transforming into specks of white light that faded away in the air.

……

Roy waited for a long time before going forward to check again and confirmed that Melina was completely dead.

He first grabbed her space ring, then stripped off her clothes and threw them aside.

The blackening potion was poured, smoke was emitted from many places, and soon, the senior student was completely transformed into a skeleton without flesh and blood.

Afterwards, the color of the skull gradually darkened, and it slowly softened and melted in the small puddle formed by the solution of blood and flesh.

Roy checked it out.

Although short wooden staffs, dresses, etc. are all magical items with certain enhancement and defensive effects, they are not worthy of too much attention.

What is really worth paying attention to is the space ring that serves as a storage magic weapon.

Melina is dead, and no one in this world knows the secret code she set. It is very likely that we will have to try through "spiritualism" or prophecy, divination and other means, and it may not necessarily be successful.

The cost of investment and the possible output are also unknown.

If you bet out some junk, it would be a real waste of your money.

However, if you use the least technical method to brute force the attack, it will easily destroy the ether space inside and you may get nothing.

The moment it is successfully opened, the things inside will be exiled to an unknown place.

There's no way to put this kind of thing into your ring like a nesting doll.

Therefore, after taking a look, he knew that he would never be able to handle this thing in a short period of time.

I might as well just put this delicate-looking women's silver ring in my pocket and think about it slowly after I get back.

"I wasted some time here, and I don't know what's going on over there..."

Roy was hesitating whether to go back and take a look, when he suddenly heard a loud roar coming from several thousand meters away.

That was the sound of alchemical bombs and elemental orbs exploding.

"What a fierce fight!"

He looked from a distance for a while, then turned and left.

There is no need to wade through the muddy waters that follow. Entering the Cretaceous Country is to obtain the resources needed for future development. What I have obtained now is enough.

After returning, digest it carefully, and becoming a formal wizard is the bottom line!
Not everyone had the same plan along the way.

Some smart ones seem to want to rob people on the road and do some business with no capital.

But apart from Oren, Baru and Sophia, no other apprentice could pose a threat to him.

They even knew Roy, and when they saw him from afar, they turned around and ran away.

Therefore, the journey home was smooth.
