A noun entry: Wizard

"Ahhhhh!"

With a painful scream, the Ice Cone Wizard Apprentice clutched the wound on his right shoulder.

On the ground lay a right arm, severed at the root.

"Instant-cast spells, I know all the level two wizard apprentices. You're a prospective level two wizard apprentice?" His face was pale, whether from blood loss or something else was unclear.

The ice cone wizard apprentice lowered his head, clenching his teeth tightly to prevent the resentment in his eyes from showing.

A prospective second-level wizard apprentice can cast spells instantly, right? Give him some time, and he can do the same.

He can already compress the casting time of spells to within one second. In at most six months, he will be able to cast spells instantly as well!

Unbeknownst to the Ice Cone Wizard Apprentice, Russell had already successfully condensed his magical power and advanced to the second-level Wizard Apprentice level.

The only difference between him and a seasoned veteran among second-level wizard apprentices is that he has constructed the Furry model for the second-level wizard apprentice stage and constructed two new spell models.

To be honest, among the second-level wizard apprentices on Panlong Mountain, there are several relatively young ones who are in a similar situation to Russell now.

"Fighting among wizard apprentices is forbidden, but failing to help those in distress is not. As for losing your arm, that's just a minor punishment."

Russell watched as Hai Si surged forward, then stepped back. "Can you still endure the excruciating pain, chant incantations, and mobilize your mental energy to deal with Hai Si?"

"Don't worry, I will kill Hai Si, the one who killed you, to avenge you."

"No!"

The Ice Cone Wizard Apprentice turned and ran.

"Bang!"

A shield came crashing down.

The Ice Cone Wizard apprentice was knocked to the ground by a shield that flew out of nowhere, leaving him bleeding from a head wound.

A knight looked down at his two dead companions, remaining silent.

"No! No! No! I won't die here!"

The ice spike wizard apprentice struggled to his feet, wanting to continue his escape.

"boom!"

A ball of dark blue water slammed into him, making a loud bang.

Russell's expression shifted, and he turned to look.

A seaman landed.

He was tall and thin, his head was covered by countless dark blue tentacles, and he wore tattered clothes to cover his body.

But at this moment, he stepped out of the sea, his clothes clinging tightly to his body, making him look somewhat out of place.

What's most eye-catching is the deep blue gemstone he's holding.

The gemstone emitted a magnificent deep blue color, making it look absolutely beautiful.

"A level two Sea Heir, and a spellcaster wielding the 'Heart of the Azure Sea'—is this my luck?"

Russell muttered to himself, raising his hand to unleash a wind blade.

The method is a bit limited, but there's no other way.

Russell was only a first-level wizard apprentice, and this was the only spell he knew.

The second-level Sea Heir raised the Azure Heart, and a water sphere condensed to meet Russell's wind blade.

"Snapped!"

The water sphere shattered the wind blades and turned into seawater, which then fell to the ground.

Heart of the Aqua, a treasure from the sea, is an extraordinary gemstone that can be used to make witch wands.

Unfortunately, the wand made from the Heart of Aquamarine can only be used to amplify spells of the water and ice types.

"If this kid were still alive and stronger, perhaps that would be his opportunity? After all, it's the Heart of the Azure Sea."

Facing a Level 2 Sea Siege, Russell now has the confidence to be briefly distracted.

After all, the opponent can be suppressed simply by using instant wind blades.

Russell already possessed magical powers, which he used as a guide to resonate with spiritual power and attract the wind element from heaven and earth to converge.

The wind blades that were released so instantly, combined with the effects of the affixes, each one possessed the power that Russell had previously used to kill a level two Sea Child!

We must even surpass that!

"Unfortunately, I am now only a level two wizard apprentice, and I can't even get 0.1 of the affix dust from killing you."

Russell shook his head slightly, suddenly feeling his magical power and mental strength drop simultaneously, which made him frown.

However, he was relieved when he saw the two wind blades form instantly.

It turns out that a special keyword was triggered.

[Spell Turret (Rare): Spell damage +110%, 20% chance to increase spell count by 1]

"However, the fact that the number of spells increases by 1 also consumes my mental and magical power is different from what I expected."

"I thought another spell could appear out of thin air, but it seems that even entries must follow the law of conservation of energy."

"Just like how mythological terms are powerful, but I still need to have a certain foundation, otherwise they are not very useful."

Two wind blades shot out, but a level two Sea Instinct could only unleash one water ball at a time. It could block one wind blade, but not the second one!

"Pfft."

Under Russell's control, the wind blade that was not blocked mercilessly swept across the body of the Level 2 Sea Sigil.

Cut the opponent in half at the waist!

Immediately afterwards, another wind blade shot out, precisely severing the opponent's head.

Russell walked over, picked up the Heart of Aquamarine from the ground, dusted it off, and put it away.

They also found a small bag of source stones on the Ice Cone Wizard apprentice, which they then put away and left.

"thank you."

A calm, middle-aged man's voice rang out; it belonged to the only surviving knight.

Russell glanced back at him, nodded noncommittally, and continued his hunt for Hai Si.

It was as if, just as he had said before, severing the arm of the Ice Cone Wizard Apprentice was a small punishment.

This was because the other party had splashed dust onto Russell's robes.

What happened here is just a microcosm of the entire coastline; nobody cares what happened.

The death of a wizard's apprentice?

No one would offend another wizard apprentice for the sake of a dead person, since they are not related by blood or marriage.

Some wizard apprentices even changed direction tacitly when they saw the situation from afar.

There are plenty of sea creatures along the coastline, so there's no need to go near them and get yourself covered in fishy smells for nothing.

"Four second-level marine juveniles."

After Russell killed six more Level 1 Sealings, even the hundreds of Sealings present were slaughtered by the wizard apprentices.

Especially after the three second-level wizard apprentices stationed on the coastline joined the battle, they displayed a slaughtering speed comparable to Russell's.

No matter how many Hai Si there are, they can't withstand this kind of slaughter.

"A hundred Sea Sprites are nothing. Four Level 2 Sea Sprites are just a minor problem for a Level 2 Wizard Apprentice."

Russell looked around.

The only problem is that the knights suffered heavy casualties, but in the eyes of those three, it probably doesn't matter much.

It's unlikely to alarm Schilling.

The lack of knights, with just a slight improvement in their treatment, could become the final straw that breaks the camel's back.

This prompted the knights in Panlong City who were initially undecided about joining Panlong Mountain to do so.

In particular, Panlong City also has knight potions, so even ordinary people who dare to fight can become knights.

Weak? Just drink a few more Knight Potions and you'll be fine.

Panlong City has never lacked knights.

If you don't do it, plenty of knights will!
