Wizards: Starting with Synthetic Gems

Chapter 388: Mana Power 5700, Magic Pressure 6700!

Not only Eric, but also his son George Plutarch, and the five formal wizards behind them, all had rather unpleasant looks on their faces.

Among the people behind them were even three wizards at the Qi Transformation stage.

In the Land of Six Towers, wizards at the vaporization stage are already quite rare.

Clearly, Eric's arrival this time was not just a simple act of causing trouble, but a serious and aggressive move.

They probably wanted to arrange for someone to be around Grand Wizard Sula to prevent Grand Wizard Sula from suddenly dying without them knowing anything.

Or at least to confirm whether the will of the great wizard Sura is favorable to their branch.

After all, the Plutarch family's businesses spanned the Six Towers, this vast wizarding land.

Countless mortal dynasties were under the rule of their family.

Their family is like gods in this land.

Eric was filled with jealousy at the thought of how the High Wizard Sura doted on his sister while neglecting his branch of the family.

The thought of how the High Wizard Sura doted on Alicia but treated his child so casually only intensified the already unbalanced feeling in his heart.

Eric looked at Locke with a cold smile. "You're an invited potion master from outside? Then you only need to treat Grand Wizard Sura; this is none of your business."

“The wizards behind me are all family wizards of our Plutarch family. It’s perfectly normal for us to come together to visit Grand Wizard Sura. Alicia, come out here. You don’t need to hide behind this potion master.”

"Are you going to stop us? Is that in accordance with the noble etiquette of the Plutarch family? How dare you, a junior, disobey your elders?"

Just as Eric was about to raise his voice further, Locke suddenly released his magical pressure, causing all the wizards present to change their expressions.

Locke's current magic pressure is 5700, but because he has been taking Mammon Powder potion continuously, the abyssal energy in his eyes is currently... 1000.

The sheer amount of abyssal energy she possesses, equivalent to her magical pressure, is already comparable to the magical power of an ordinary first-ring wizard.

The ratio of his abyssal magical pressure to normal magical pressure did not increase further. This was mainly because the speed at which the Mammon Powder potion increased mana exceeded its effect of increasing abyssal energy, so the ratio did not increase but instead decreased somewhat.

This demonstrates that Locke still maintains a certain degree of control over the abyssal energy within his body.

Generally speaking, even if external magical pressure is applied, if the quality of the magical pressure is insufficient, it will not present as a simple numerical addition. However, the problem is that the quality of the abyssal energy possessed by the Eye Demon Lord is extremely high, so the magical pressure that Locke is currently exhibiting is... 6700!

This magical pressure has officially surpassed the threshold of a liquefied wizard. Under this enormous magical pressure, Locke's magic power has changed from a misty state to a liquefied state, and the magic power, like spiritual liquid, revolves around his body.

Although Locke is not a liquefaction wizard, he has reached a stage close to that of a liquefaction wizard.

Moreover, this magical pressure, mixed with abyssal energy, was extremely aggressive, like a roaring beast, appearing in the ears of every wizard present. The profound malice contained within it made Eric's face turn pale.

Eric, who had almost directly borne all of Locke's magical pressure, took two steps back, as if someone had suddenly crashed into a wall while running at high speed.

Eric looked at Locke with a hint of fear that he himself was unaware of.

Eric, who was used to a life of luxury, even became a formal wizard by using the Tide Shark Pearl and the Plutarch family's half-elemental bloodline modification to transform himself into a half-elemental creature.

His permanent defensive field was not the permanent defensive field of a normal first-ring wizard, but a [fire element shell] formed by the combination of elemental creatures and the wizard's permanent defensive field.

This kind of thing is very useful for bullying wizard apprentices, but it's completely useless at the first level of wizarding.

At this moment, under Locke's indifferent gaze, Eric's fear grew stronger, and the wizards behind him were also under immense pressure.

Eric could no longer remain calm; his voice distorted. "You actually dared to unleash magical pressure on me right here on the heart grounds of our Plutarch family?"

"This is the number two White Dragon Tower. I am a senior wizard instructor at the White Dragon Magic Gem University. How dare you cast spells on me here..." "Get lost." Locke looked at him coldly. "Or, fight me?"

"Do you want to try it?"

Locke opened his right hand, and a green spiral staircase-shaped sea ginseng appeared in his palm. At the same time, the triangular leaves of the sea ginseng secreted spores of gold powder, and the sea ginseng instantly turned gold.

Countless golden sands swirl around a sea lily, creating an extremely dangerous scene.

Furthermore, the Golden Sand Storm was expanding in Locke's hands, and the expansion rate increased every second. Locke had activated the defensive magic array in the corridor by using magic in this corridor, but with Locke's magic pressure of 6700 at this moment, these simple magic traps could not suppress his magic power.

A look of fear flashed in Eric's eyes. He felt himself locked onto by Locke's magic and would be struck at any moment.

'Damn it, this potion master from outside is clearly hired by my Plutarch family, so why is there such obvious bias?'

'Where did my niece find such a powerful wizard to side with? It seems I really underestimated her; she's not as naive as she appears.'

'I am the son of a noble family, unlike these commoner wizards. If we fight, I will definitely be at a disadvantage.' Eric's eyes flashed with retreat, and he turned to leave in a fit of anger and embarrassment. 'Let's go, George.'

“We can’t reason with this commoner wizard, so we’ll come back another day. Alicia, you actually colluded with outsiders to bully your own family. You’re quite the acting head of the family. I’ll make sure to spread good word about you among the Plutarch family.”

"You're only the acting head of the family, and you're already leading outsiders to bully your own people. What will happen when you become..."

Locke was already impatient. The spores of the sea gold sand in his hand transformed into gold dust bullets, swirling around Eric. If he loosened his grip even slightly, Eric would be riddled with holes by the gold dust bullets in the next instant. "Get lost."

Eric turned back to look at Locke with a grim expression. He sensed that Locke was truly intent on killing him this time. Without finishing his sentence, he took his son and five other branch wizards who had come with him and fled as if his life depended on it.

At the top of the floating staircase, Eric and the others remained silent. After a long while, Eric finally recovered from Locke's terrifying magical pressure and began to pant. "That... wizard is even more ferocious than a dark wizard. Just now, I even felt that he might actually attack me, a direct descendant of the Plutarch wizard, in the very heart of the Plutarch family's territory."

"It's simply...incomprehensible. She's not easy to deal with. I originally thought Alicia was an easy person to talk to. I thought I could just tease her a little and then switch the people taking care of my father while he was unconscious. Who knew Alicia would find such a troublesome person."

Eric's eyes were filled with resentment. "If this continues, will our branch of the family still have a place?"

“George, you should marry that witch from the Basil family as soon as possible. Although she is a bit ugly, marrying her will improve your status in the Plutarch family.”

"Moreover, according to family rules, as long as you get married, the High Wizard Sura will give you some family property. I've been eyeing the family's Jackal Bloodline Essence Factory for a long time, and this time I'll use your marriage as an excuse to get that factory from my sister Lisa."

Eric said, "Besides, I think your grandfather might be dying, so we should try to fight for some of the inheritance."

“My sister’s side wasn’t in a very advantageous position to begin with. If it weren’t for that little girl, the Plutarch family’s fortune would all be mine!”

George hadn't recovered from the terrifying pressure Locke had exerted on him. He felt as if an endless mountain was pressing down on his heart, making it hard to even breathe.

At this moment, his face was completely bloodless, possibly because his soul had suffered slight damage from the rapidly increasing demonic pressure, leaving him in a daze.

……

After Eric and his men left, Alicia emerged from behind the lock. She breathed a sigh of relief and said to Locke, "Locke, thank you. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know how to get rid of them."

"If I were to step in, I would be bound by family ties and seniority. No matter how right or powerful I am, I would not be able to easily say no."

“My grandfather entrusted me with the management of the Plutarch family and completely entrusted me with the task of managing and treating his illness... I really don’t know if I now have that ability.”

Alicia said to Locke, "But I will try my best. I won't let you down."

"Furthermore, you can come with me to the data management room of White Dragon Magic University first. I will show you the current programs offered by White Dragon Magic University, and you can choose whichever program you want."
