Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 269 Reencounter with the Insect Curse School

Stormwind Keep, inside the St. Mark's Theater.

Su Nan saw that many sorcerers were fighting with the insect curse school of the wizarding school.

The Insect Curse School has about fifty wizard apprentices, but most are only at the third or second level, with only three at the first level. One of these first-level apprentices is Vera, whom Su Nan had met before.

Coca is still a second-class wizard apprentice.

There were over two hundred warlocks, as numerous as locusts. However, these warlocks were mostly one-star and two-star warlocks, not high-level at all.

There are only a few dozen three-star warlocks, no four-star warlocks, but the leader is a five-star warlock.

The reason the Insect Curse school has been able to survive until now is because there is an old, white-bearded first-ring wizard among them; he seems to be the backbone of the Insect Curse school. He is probably a first-ring wizard of the Insect Curse school who has recently revived due to the increased concentration of magical tides.

However, this first-ring wizard was clearly struggling. His insect spells were basically unable to break through the defenses of the five-star sorcerer, but the five-star sorcerer was able to leisurely hunt down the wizard apprentices of his school while easily exchanging spells with him.

The five-star warlock was a young man with unusually high brow bones, probably only in his early twenties. With a smile on his face, he used his energy field to block the mosquito swarm curse of the old witch, and then killed one witch apprentice after another from the Cursed Valley.

The young five-star sorcerer laughed, "Old wizard, you've lived so long, and this is all you've got? We sorcerers, as long as we have enough aptitude, can have the corresponding bloodline implanted. The higher the bloodline level, the higher our level."

"Do I need to waste hundreds of years like you to become a formal wizard?"

"How ridiculous."

"Warlocks have a more efficient way of gaining power. I advise you to join our Energy World. Hand over your warp portal in Cursed Valley and give us this stronghold."

The old sorcerer remained silent, but with a grim expression, he used a first-level mosquito curse in an attempt to break through the defenses of the young five-star sorcerer.

The young five-star sorcerer conjured a giant scythe from a chilling wind in his hand.

Then, he spun his scythe, and in an instant, a cold, whirlwind of wind emerged from beneath it, reaping the lives of five third-class wizard apprentices from the Insect Curse Valley. Moreover, the spell's momentum didn't wane; it struck the Insect Curse Wizard directly, shattering a ring of his insect armor curse.

The old sorcerer, spitting out blood, was knocked to the ground, his face a mixture of anger and helplessness.

He hadn't expected that after his resurrection from the magical tide, he would soon encounter the energy world again. And this time, there were no high-level wizards left on this land.

Faced with the world of energy, they can only rely on themselves.

Fortunately, this world, at least on the surface, is still in the hands of the gods. The gods are the last barrier to suppressing the energy world.

The old sorcerer was filled with grief and indignation. He still had the strength to escape, but this meant that the Valley of Insect Curses, which had been suddenly attacked, would be completely annihilated.

The subspace of the Cursed Valley within this stronghold, and all the resources accumulated by their school, will vanish in an instant.

This is why the old sorcerer with the curse of insects has been unable to make up his mind to leave this place.

The old sorcerer, facing the cold scythe in the hand of the five-star warlock, suddenly changed his expression. Just as he was about to cast a spell to escape, he looked into the distance in surprise.

Su Nan appeared on the battlefield.

However, Su Nan did not seem to be preparing for battle. Instead, he greeted the Guca Wizard and Vera.

"Hey, Guca, Vera, it's you two."

"I have come to Stormwind Keep as invited by you, to be a guest of your school."

Gu Ke and Wei Er were both stunned. They hadn't expected to meet Su Nan under these circumstances.

They are fighting. They are facing an overwhelming number of powerful enemies in the darkness, enemies they cannot defeat.

But when Su Nan saw them, he didn't run away or hide. Instead, he walked straight into the battlefield and greeted his old friends.

Wei'er was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously called out to Su Nan, "Brother Su Nan, you're here too. No, this place is dangerous."

The next moment, Su Nan appeared beside her. A three-star sorcerer in front of her suddenly opened his mouth, spat out a mouthful of blood, and looked incredulously at his abdomen, where a huge bloody hole had appeared.

But he didn't even see how Su Nan made his move.

Su Nan casually grabbed another astonished three-star sorcerer beside him, extracted the essence of his bloodline while he was still alive, and then refined a magic potion on the spot.

Meanwhile, Su Nan looked at the five-star warlock with great interest. "I see. There are quite a few five-star warlocks in Stormwind Keep now. Is this what that old bastard blind monk is relying on?"

Upon hearing his leader belittled in such a manner by Su Nan, the five-star sorcerer became enraged. He glared at Su Nan and demanded, "And who are you, daring to speak so ill of a blind monk...?"

The next moment, Warwick and Blom attacked him from behind at the same time, injecting a ring of wolf venom into his body, leaving two huge wolf claw wounds on his back.

"When...?"

Facing two werewolf hunters wearing red masks, whose full-force attacks could reach the level of 1.5 ring power, and with wolf claws and wolf venom specifically designed to target energy shells, the five-star mage's energy shell defense was instantly torn apart, resulting in severe injury.

Su Nan looked at him with a mocking expression. "You lowered your guard just because I was talking?"

While Su Nan was greeting him, Su Nan had secretly thrown two special golems of rune birds at him, and at the same time secretly used the niche conversion spell twice to move Warwick and Blom to his position.

Then, Su Nan deliberately insulted the blind monk, provoking his anger.

As a result, this young high-level sorcerer focused all his attention on Su Nan, and paid no attention to his own back.

He is still too young.

Panel data is panel data, while actual combat power is actual combat power.

At the same time, in an instant, Su Nan used a remote injection spell to summon a rain of wolfsbane here. In the wolfsbane rain, all the warlocks became weak and their combat power was greatly reduced.

Blom donned the Crimson Mask once more and used the Abyssal Web Transformation to become a werewolf messenger. After activating Blood Charge, Hunting Fury, and Boiling Blood, he then used the werewolf messenger's special talent—an additional Hunting Fury—granting him even greater melee combat abilities. He then charged forward to fight the heavily wounded five-star warlock.

Meanwhile, Su Nan announced to the wizards of the Cursed Valley, "Do not kill these sorcerers. These sorcerers are prey for our wolf pack."

"Whoever dares to touch the wolf pack's prey is the wolf pack's enemy."

Su Nan had already finished refining a bottle of [Warlock's Blood], and he drank it directly, strengthening his mental power to 330.

His magical pressure increased dramatically, and all the warlocks felt as if an invisible dark cloud was looming over their hearts, suppressing them with magical pressure.

The old wizard, pursing his lips, muttered, "Aren't these werewolves a bit too powerful? Are they even werewolves anymore?"

"Little Wei'er, are these all your friends?"

Vera hesitated, unsure if she could even acknowledge such a formidable friend. "Um...yes...we knew each other before."

The old sorcerer immediately ordered the wizards of the school, "Cease fighting those sorcerers."

At that time, the thirty-nine mutated werewolves, whether werewolf inspectors, werewolf messengers, or werewolf deacons, each had their own roles. They combined with each other and coordinated with each other's rhythm, activating their magic blood charging, boiling, and rage, leaving the weakened warlocks with no chance to fight back.

Soon, except for nine three-star sorcerers who were captured by the wolf pack, all the other sorcerers were killed. Their bloodlines were extracted by Su Nan and his team, and then placed in the sap of the White Leaf Tree to stabilize the magic potion and stored.

The high-level sorcerer was incredibly resourceful; his cold aura seemed capable of transforming into various weapon shapes, including scythes, swords, spears, halberds, and shields. Furthermore, these weapons could be infused with the power of the other four basic sorcerer spells to create combined spells.

Moreover, he also possesses a spell called "Cold Wind - Jade Bullets," which allows him to launch dozens of wind projectiles forward with a single swing of his Cold Scythe.

He was indeed a significant threat, but because he was ambushed by two werewolf hunters and poisoned with wolf venom, he only struggled for less than ten minutes before the wolf venom spread throughout his body, rendering him unable to move.

He was escorted to Sunan by Warwick and Blom. At that moment, the young man was still full of resentment, saying, "Damn it, if you hadn't ambushed me..."

"How could I lose so quickly? Where did you come from? There shouldn't be such a powerful wizard in Stormwind Keep, there shouldn't be."

Su Nan glanced at him. "Shouldn't it?"

"But for the strong, the world is never something they need to care about. Therefore, the world itself is defined by the strong."

Su Nan poured a bottle of first-level warlock bloodline essence into his left hand and then pressed it against his forehead.

The five-star sorcerer was first puzzled, then filled with terror. "What are you going to do to me? You're draining my bloodline!"

Su Nan extracted a large amount of sorcerer bloodline into his own hands; this was the first sorcerer bloodline equivalent to that of a formal wizard that he had obtained. Su Nan couldn't even imagine how many good things he could use it to create.

Su Nan said, "Since it is an implanted bloodline, there is a possibility that it can be extracted again."

"The warlock system is far more susceptible to having its power separated than the wizard system. Of course, this is a characteristic designed by the energy world itself."

Su Nan extracted all of his sorcerer bloodline and carefully stored it in a white sap stabilizing potion.

The young man was terrified. "What did you do to me? What did you do to me?"

Su Nan ignored him and turned to the old wizard with the Insect Curse, inviting him, "Are you a first-ring wizard? I recently established a formal wizard-level gathering and would like to invite you to join."

The old wizard, stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded and said, "I'll join."

Gu Ke and Wei Er looked at Su Nan in disbelief.

When they first met Su Nan, he was merely a second-tier wizard apprentice. Later, in the secret realm, he became a first-tier wizard apprentice. But this time, he turned out to be a first-ring wizard, and a first-ring wizard even more powerful than their ancestor!

Guca broke out in a cold sweat. So, was Su Nan really one of the Forgotten Ones, pretending to be a wizard's apprentice?

Su Nan nodded to the old wizard of the Insect Curse and said, "I will have one of our first-ring wizards go to the place you designate and set up the entrance to the gathering. First-class wizard apprentices can still enter the gathering for now, but in principle, only first-ring wizards can join in the future."

The old wizard with the insect curse blinked, suddenly feeling as if he was no longer alone and had found his organization.

It turns out that in this era, in this era of scarce resources, there still exists a trading organization at the level of a first-ring wizard.
