Wizards: Starting with Synthetic Gems

Chapter 475 The Role of Tetraploid Iron Rust Beads!
The wizard Edgar seemed to think that he could stack damage through his nature avatar and continuously use nature spells to increase the damage to a level that would completely surpass the simulated permanent defensive field of the Iron Fortress in a short period of time.

Therefore, his natural avatar used botanical magic continuously, and with the blessing of the reverse flow of natural primal force, it was truly earth-shattering, with each spell filled with terrifying power.

Edgar the Treant swung his fist, smashing an S3 machine gun that was firing at him relentlessly into pieces. At the same time, he slammed his fist into the ground, unleashing one of the most powerful spells of the terrifying first stage, Natural Wave, which fell to the ground like an energy ball. Then, as the Force of Nature poured in, Natural Wave caused the fortress ground to distort drastically.

Edgar the Treant unleashed yet another natural storm.

At the same time, the witch Diana gritted her teeth and, with a fierce determination, wielded two swords and attacked from the other end of the city fortress, continuously applying the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, which condensed into ice and enveloped the fortress.

One of them possessed the power of nature to amplify life magic, as if he were in a wizard's tower, where every spell could be magnified. The other, after using the Laurel Tree and the Laurel Leaf Blade, had his botanical magic possess the characteristics of a second-circle ultimate magic, each strike tearing through the sky in a terrifying display, with a full moon symbolizing the shadowy figure behind him.

The two players' output was extremely terrifying.

However, even after fighting for ten minutes, the two still couldn't completely break through the simulated permanent defensive force field of this steel fortress.

Locke landed on the permanent defensive field and looked at the two wizards in the sky who were attacking frantically. "Their attack power is definitely higher than mine. Without using the beast panel, my attack power cannot surpass theirs."

“But unless it’s a life-or-death crisis, I don’t need to use the Beast Panel in a match.”

Locke's forehead now bore the innate demonic eye of a three-eyed tiger cat. "But even without comparing damage output, I still have a way to win this competition."

Locke unleashed a beam of Earth Elemental Magnetism from his forehead, which not only struck some of the component robots but also paralyzed a portion of them.

This caused the operation of the massive steel fortress to come to a standstill.

“My guess was right,” Locke pondered. “These massive sub-component robots are like individual cells. They will go to specific locations to repair this fortress, but knowing which specific location to go to requires the guidance of some kind of signal. Although time is of the essence and we cannot rule out which kind of signal it is, we can use the Earth Polar Magnetic Field to destroy these sub-component robots with a powerful magnetic field and capture the energy of that specific signal.”

"After all, it's not a true permanent defensive force field. A permanent defensive force field wouldn't have these vulnerabilities."

As Locke pondered, beams of earth-based magnetic energy shot from his eyes, striking the fortress city and disrupting the normal operation of the sub-component robots. As some robots malfunctioned, more bugs were triggered, and these chain reactions of logical errors caused the entire fortress's sub-component robots to malfunction.

The simulated permanent defensive force field of the entire fortress has malfunctioned.

Meanwhile, the paying viewers, the first-ring wizards, all nodded in approval upon seeing this.

"This wizard is very calm. He knows he can't compete with those two wizards in terms of output, but through calm thinking, he has found a way to deal with the simulated permanent defensive force field."

"I originally thought that this simulated permanent defensive force field was already perfect and could be put into practical use. It could even set off a revolutionary wave that changed the field of golem studies, and some wizards could even publish articles on it and obtain the throne of wizards. But now it seems that this simulated permanent defensive force field is still not a true permanent defensive force field. Its shortcomings are still too great."

"If it really had no flaws, do you think those Mekani people would use it?"

On the judging panel, the wizard judges had already begun to score the judges.

Although Locke did not directly destroy the Vengeance Machine Soul, he devised a way to cause a vulnerability in the simulated permanent defense field of the entire steel fortress, thus breaking this version of the simulated permanent defense field. This action earned him a lot of credit.

On the field, the Wizard Edgar and the Witch Diana, seeing this, accelerated their attack even more. After all, the simulated permanent defensive field of the Iron Fortress had been destroyed, so they only needed to continue attacking to destroy the Vengeful Soul more easily.

Even if Locke performs exceptionally well, the wizard who destroys the Vengeful Soul will ultimately receive the highest evaluation score.

The victory still belonged to one of them, and Locke's actions were merely a stepping stone for them.

Just as Locke was about to seize the opportunity to continue his attack, he suddenly realized something was wrong; the hydra plant magic on his right hand flickered.

"Huh? Someone's directly attacking the Hydra plant's main body?" Locke turned around and saw that Yennefer had actually attacked his Hydra plant's main body directly at the eight Suryas, attempting to use this method to break the nine layers of permanent defensive force field protecting him. He was currently constantly under the Mekanis's fire, and once he lost the Hydra's protection, he would immediately be in great danger, even death.

The other party's intentions are already quite clear.

Locke saw eight mages from Suryas screaming on the ground, their bodies covered in white mycelium.

Clearly, Yennefer's Mushroom King had already attached imperceptible mycelium to the eight Suryas before the war began, waiting for it to erupt at the crucial moment.

Yennefer smiled at Locke across the sky. "I'm sorry, Wizard Locke."

"I still really want to get third place."

A missile struck Locke, and it was clear that once Locke lost Hydra's protection, he would immediately be engulfed by the saturation attack of the Mecanians.

Edgar the Wizard and Diana the Witch also noticed this scene. Both of them showed disgust towards Yennefer, but for the sake of the championship, they increased their attack speed.

Locke gritted his teeth and looked at the ground. "Luckily, I still have a backup plan."

Eight Suryas were seen collapsing to the ground under the Mushroom King's mycelial toxins. However, what made Yennefer's expression change drastically was that after losing eight sources of first-level magical pressure, Hydra did not immediately become weak and listless. Instead, it seemed to be completely unaffected.

Locke looked at his right hand, where the Hydra Plant was wrapped around it. The tetraploid Rust Bead Flower could amplify the permanent defensive field by two times, and could also store this magical pressure for later use.

In other words, because of the tetraploid Iron-Rusty Bead Flower, the Hydra Demon Plant can be used for a long time even without human intervention.

On the ground, Yennefer noticed this and was immediately enraged. She swung her petrifying hammerhead mushroom at the Hydra plant's main body. "I don't believe it! A tactical-level plant can't function without someone controlling it. Even if it can still move, how much power can it unleash!"

Locke, inside the fortress, ignored all attacks. "Idiot."

The next moment, Yennefer's mushroom hammer collided with Hydra's. Her action was tantamount to using her magical pressure to clash head-on with nine layers of permanent defensive force field, and Yennefer did not have the second-ring characteristics like Edgar and Diana.

The next moment, the hydra plant, which had accumulated the magical pressure of nine wizards, deployed nine layers of defensive force fields and collided with the petrifying mushroom hammer.

Yennefer's expression changed drastically, because she felt that she was fighting against the magical pressure of nine wizards all by herself.

That was a battle with vastly unequal numbers.

That's like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, attempting to use one person's strength to fight against nine, like a strong man standing in the middle of the road trying to stop a speeding car.

The next moment, she screamed in agony, blood gushing from her face, and flew backward, the petrifying mushroom hammer in her hand breaking in two.

Using a single magical plant to directly attack a tactical magical plant is undoubtedly an extremely foolish and reckless act, but Yennefer was convinced that since no one was controlling the hydra magical plant, she would surely destroy it with a single blow.

Locke, on the other hand, would most likely die, thus placing her third.

Those who rank in the top three will have the opportunity to enter the True Knowledge Academy.

Unfortunately, she didn't expect that the tetraploid rust bead flower could store an extra 100% of magic pressure, which meant that the hydra plant could still function for a period of time without being operated.
