Wizards: Starting with Synthetic Gems

Chapter 365 Alicia's Savior

For a moment, the two dark wizards thought Locke was a dark wizard disguised as a white wizard, otherwise how could they explain his behavior just now?

Locke quickly locked onto the Joker leader, his eyes scanning the throwing knives on his back before fixing his gaze on the Joker leader. "You Joker gang are all liars."

Just now, in order to avoid Locke's magical attack by carrying Alicia, the clown leader directly revealed his true strength. He used the magic of the Transfiguration School to turn his legs into a pair of spring legs, and then used the jumping force to barely avoid Locke's magic.

But this also meant that he had told Locke that he was a Transformer from the Transformation School, and the little tricks he had learned from the Conjuration School to control throwing knives were relatively exposed to Locke.

He was not a sorcerer of the sorcery school at all, but a shapeshifter of the shapeshifting school.

Meanwhile, the Joker leader gritted his teeth. "You call me a liar? What about you? Aren't you a robber? You stole our Jokers' spoils and didn't care about the lives of the hostages at all."

The beast tamer secretly used magic to summon a magical bird in his palm, but the next moment, the magical bird and his palm were both pierced through the heart by Locke's Sea Gold Sand, which transformed into the Golden Fern Spear.

The beast tamer screamed in pain. His Permanent Defense Field was a support spell called [Double Summoning], so as a wizard of the Summoning School, he could summon two magical pets in the same summoning spell.

This can easily be used to trick people.

At this moment, his right hand and a magic bird were pinned to the ground by the Golden Fern Spear, but the Steel-Blade Swallow hidden in the shadow of the magic bird suddenly broke out of the shadow and slashed towards Locke's neck.

But the next moment, Oak Armor appeared on Locke's body. A full suit of white oak armor appeared on his body, and at the same time, Locke used his right arm to deflect the steel-bladed swallow.

These dark wizards are incredibly cunning, employing far too many tricks and deceptions.

At this moment, the clown leader's eyes lit up, feeling that he had seized an opportunity.

His entire body rapidly changed shape, transforming into a spring-like figure. Powerful potential energy accumulated throughout his body, and then he punched Locke. The instant his fist made contact with Locke's oak armor, his fist suddenly began to flatten, becoming a two-dimensional fist that drilled into the gap in Locke's oak armor.

A look of surprise appeared in the eyes of the clown leader, followed by a surge of killing intent.

His Perpetual Defensive Field is not a defensive spell, but an auxiliary spell called "Two-Dimensional Deployment." This spell allows him to keep his body in a two-dimensional plane and, from an incredible angle, use topological methods to find the flaws in the three-dimensional shape of the wizard enemies' Perpetual Defensive Fields.

After all, some defensive force fields may appear to have no blind spots, but apart from wizards of the Transfiguration school, other wizards rarely put much effort into topology, so their permanent defensive force fields may have loopholes in their topological structure.

That's why the Clown Master learned this magic.

When facing an enemy, he suddenly casts this magic with the effect of killing on first sight, and in an instant, he can hit the enemy's vitals.

While this trick is unlikely to work the second time, the problem is that you only get one life.

At that moment, Locke's expression changed slightly, clearly realizing that the opponent's fist was attacking through the gaps in his full-body oak magic armor.

Although the opponent's fist had been expanded into two dimensions, the transformative magical energy contained within remained undiminished. If it passed through the gaps in the oak magic armor and struck his heart, his heart would be shattered in an instant.

The premise is that you only have one permanent defensive force field: the Oak Magic Armor.

Locke's mind stirred, and he instantly transformed his oak magic armor into steam bark. It was too late to change his life force field now.

Because the opponent's fist was almost touching his skin.

The next moment, a burst of violent, high-temperature steam erupted from Locke's body, turning it into a layer of bark.

The clown leader's expression changed drastically, "What!"

"How do you have two permanent defensive fields?"

Because he was too close to Locke, he had no way to avoid Locke's Steam Bark attack. The high-temperature steam hit his right arm and his face simultaneously.

Moreover, steam bark does not have topological vulnerabilities at the two-dimensional level. After all, it is just a layer of steam, and Locke can shape it however he wants.

His fist slammed into Locke's steam bark, releasing immense elastic potential energy in an instant. Not only did it fail to penetrate the bark, but it also damaged his arm. The clown leader screamed and tried to flee, but Locke's large hand reached out and grabbed his throat. "Gentlemen, I need to borrow your heads."

The clown leader's neck and head, under the effect of his transformation magic, unfolded again into two dimensions, turning into paper pieces that tried to slip away through Locke's fingers.

But Locke conjured an execution hammer mushroom in his right hand and smashed it toward the clown leader's head. The clown leader was about to show a look of joy, because physical attacks were far too easy for a wizard of the Transfiguration school to deal with.

Neither cutting nor blunt force was of any use.

He has ways to deal with everything.

Therefore, he did not pursue any defensive magic as a permanent defensive force field. The wizards of their Transfiguration school could deal with most offensive magic simply by changing their own shape.

But to the Joker leader's surprise, a gravity field enveloped his throat. "This is gravity magic..."

These words became his last, because the gravity field that had enveloped his neck exploded the next moment.

The powerful gravity snapped his neck. No matter how much he changed shape, two things were certain.

First, in the deformation of the surface shape in topology, it cannot break, that is, it cannot deform by separating the neck from the head; it must deform continuously and without segmentation.

Second, gravity can warp everything nearby, and it doesn't matter what shape you make yourself.

It was for this reason that Locke decided to use the Execution Hammerhead Mushroom to deal with this Transfigurationist dark wizard.

Locke also snatched the ring from the black wizard captain and put it in his pocket.

As for the supplies inside the ring, which were previously looted from the void warships, those would definitely belong to him as well.

Locke turned around and saw that the beast tamer had actually ordered the golden lion to bite off his right arm. Then, with both arms gone, he summoned a rhinoceros beetle, a magical insect as big as a man, and rode on its back to escape quickly.

Just as Locke was about to give chase, a rhinoceros beetle left behind lunged at him, but before it could get close, Locke opened his palm and summoned back a sea ginseng that had transformed into a spiral spear, piercing it right through.

The rhinoceros beetle let out a miserable cry and lost its ability to move. Locke picked up the rhinoceros beetle and threw it into his Druid Ring, since it was a good source of forest fertilizer and potion-making material.

“Fighting beast tamers from the Summoning School is quite interesting,” Locke said. “They even delivered magical materials to me.”

Locke watched the beast tamer flee in a disheveled state, and saw the blood all around him. He prepared to follow, but Alicia behind him suddenly spoke up: "This... wizard... you..."

Locke turned back to look at her, puzzled.

Alicia looked at Locke with gratitude. When she was at her most desperate, Locke descended from the sky and immediately killed the despicable wizard who had bullied her. He was also going to hunt down another wizard.

Alicia asked softly, "What is your name, wizard? I am Alicia. You are my savior, and I want to thank you properly."

Locke pondered for a moment and said, "Locke Augustine."

Locke didn't pause for long, but immediately gave chase. Who knew if anyone else besides the Black Wizard Leader who possessed the Eclipse Seed would have such a thing?

Therefore, to prevent any accidents, it is still necessary to nip the problem in the bud.

Alicia watched the direction Locke had left in, his figure gradually disappearing at the end of the corridor in her azure pupils. She gently exhaled a breath of stale air.

"Locke..."

Alicia remembered the young wizard's retreating figure. "Thanks to him this time, otherwise I don't know what would have happened to me."
