Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 338 Abnormal Aggregate of Malevolent Thoughts

For the next week, Su Nan spent his time adjusting the second-circle spells and researching the War Spear Wizard Tower, dismantling its magical technology.

At the same time, Su Nan also pardoned many people in the werewolf empire's capital who had failed in their duty of guarding.

The reason is that, after all, the assassination was planned by wizards, and with their abilities, they certainly couldn't stop it.

In fact, the assassination, in essence, reinforced the indigenous people's worship of the power of shamans in the flat and square world.

The wizards' power has proven time and again to them that it truly surpasses that of the summoners.

On the field, the Summoner genius Alfred also lost confidence as he lost seven times in a week, each time even faster.

He felt as if no matter how he adjusted his summoned creature lineup, he could not threaten Warwick and Blom.

Even if the entire Summoner system has opened up all resources to him, allowing him to summon any mythical beast god at will, the result will be the same.

Above the void plane, Su Nan spent a week adjusting the Brown Field spell model to the appropriate level for a second-ring spell, turning the Brown Field into a second-ring Brown Field shield.

In this way, the Brownian field is no longer limited to an invisible defensive layer. The Brownian field shield of the second ring can transform into any shape of shield, even appearing on Mario's fist or Alexander's gravity blade, forming special shield shapes.

The defensive force field of the second-ring Brownian Force Field Shield has also been greatly enhanced, possessing three types of second-ring level defenses: Energy Shell, Spell Shield, and Anti-Force Shield, each of which is second-ring level and switches between them in a very short time according to an irregular pattern.

It can also be charged using magic potions.

The previous 50x level 1 Brown Field required at least 15 bottles of Quadruple Ascension Consumable Potions or at least 30 bottles of Triple Ascension Consumable Potions per week to maintain its peak performance.

Currently, his second-ring Brown Field Shield requires 7 bottles of sixth-level Ascendancy consumable potions, or 15 bottles of fifth-level Ascendancy potions, or 30 bottles of fourth-level Ascendancy potions to maintain the strength of five times the minimum second-ring wizard's permanent defensive field.

However, the Aksha Vortex Potion, a potion that undergoes four stages of ascension, is something that Su Nan can easily craft now. Therefore, he directly crafted 30 bottles, maintaining the permanent defensive field at five times its normal strength.

Overall, this defensive spell should still be considered excellent among second-circle spells.

However, since it was only upgraded from the first-level magic, it lacks some staying power and is not as excellent as it was when it was the first level.

Su Nan plans to create new and better defensive magic once he has accumulated enough experience.

Su Nan had already recorded and analyzed the runes on the War Spear Wizard Tower and the rudimentary floating magic pool.

The AI ​​even reverse-engineered some of the War Hand runes, increasing the number of War Spear runes that Su Nan possessed to twenty-one.

Most runes for the Hand of War are related to themes like "slaying," "power," and "resilience." This type of rune setup is very effective at increasing melee combat ability.

Su Nan plans to use this rune in his own wizard tower, at least until he creates his own system of runes.

This will enhance Alexander, Gagui, and Mario's close-range attack capabilities.

Although the increase may be small, it is an accumulation. As time goes by, the Stone Wizard Tower will gradually become stronger through this strengthening process.

Su Nan continued his research on the floating magic pool in the Wizard Tower. "This method of creating a magic pool using summoning stones is particularly inspiring to me."

"After all, I have plenty of summoning stones."

"We have as many as you need from Hualong Mountain. Hmm? It seems something's happened."

Su Nan sensed the pain Warwick was experiencing amidst the wolf pack effect, but for some reason, Warwick didn't connect with himself within that effect.

Su Nan directly communicated with him in the void above the plane using the wolf pack effect.

"Mr. Warwick, what happened to you?"

Warwick responded in the Wolf Pack Effect analogy, "N-nothing..."

Blom responded directly amidst the wolf pack effect: "Master, come back quickly, Mr. Warwick is in trouble. When he accepted the challenge from that young summoner Alfred, I don't know what Alfred did, but his own spells seem to have gone out of control, and as a result, he and Mr. Warwick were both hit."

"I'm going to kill that Alfred! But never mind, that's too much trouble; he's already been infected himself."

In the context of the wolf pack effect, Warwick stated, "Mr. Blom, didn't I tell you not to cause trouble for the young master? Besides, I can handle this myself."

The next moment, Su Nan used the Niche Reversal Spell to return from the void to the Heaven and Earth Plane. As the magic emperor here, Su Nan felt that the entire plane was welcoming his return.

The unique magical structure within the plane binds the magical tides of the entire plane.

Su Nan, standing in the stands, witnessed what was happening on the field. By this time, many of the surrounding spectators had begun to panic. They were starting to realize that something bad had occurred.

Meanwhile, inside the arena, Alfred was in a daze, his soul bound to a filthy, viscous black hand that resembled gasoline. This black hand, by consuming his soul power, transformed into a plume of black smoke shooting into the sky.

The black smoke rushed into Warwick's mouth and nose, entered his body, and caused him harm.

Su Nan frowned. Of course, he cared deeply about Warwick's life; he considered him family. But on the other hand, the werewolves' immortality wasn't fake. And from the very beginning, the purpose of holding a competition across the world was to injure the werewolves, allowing them to better digest magic.

However, the Beast God ability that Alfred uses is indeed quite unique.

Blom rushed to Sunan's side, and even Vasilyan came over.

Standing in the stands, Blom asked Su Nan, "My master, can you tell what tricks the opponent used to make Mr. Warwick suffer a loss?"

"Really. If it's a matter of raw strength, Mr. Warwick could kill him with a single finger."

Vasilyan stated succinctly, "On the battlefield, victory is all that matters. The means don't matter."

Blom shrugged. "But that black mist seems to be killing him too. He's creating a power he can't control, trying to take us all down with him. But I don't think the chances are high."

Su Nan remained silent, observing. "That should still be a Beast God. And a seventh-tier Beast God, the highest level."

"That black mist hand seems to only absorb people's souls and convert them into its own power. Now it probably wants to find a new host, after all, Mr. Warwick's soul is not comparable to Alfred's."

Su Nan said, "In history, there have been some unique products that emerged from this type of medium-sized plane."

"That's one of the reasons I organized this competition."

"It's easier to deal with all these monsters at once than to let them cause trouble in secret. Alfred is being used."

Su Nan glanced at the Arcane Intuition Ring on his middle finger, which was now shimmering with spiritual light.

"Judging from the magical aura, that black mist hand is also an aggregate of evil thoughts. All phantom beasts and phantom beast gods are essentially aggregates of evil thoughts."

"But the evil thoughts gathered by that black mist hand seem to far exceed ordinary evil thoughts, thus creating a critical reaction that allows it to extract the surrounding souls and forcibly absorb the evil thoughts of the surrounding souls, turning them into its own power."

Su Nan said, "So this place has become its stage."

"Because there are tens of thousands of spectators here, plus the three of us, it can certainly draw on powerful energy and even suppress Warwick in turn."

Blom exclaimed in surprise, "My master, it can actually absorb our power!"

Su Nan nodded. "There's nothing strange about that. It's normal for anomalies to exist in a plane of this size."

Vasilyan asked, "Then, master, what should we do?"

Su Nan looked down at Warwick in the dueling arena and raised an eyebrow, saying, "As expected of Mr. Warwick."

"Mr. Warwick's talent is improving."

"At the same time, he is digesting the magic potion."

"This accident became an opportunity for him."

Throughout the match, Warwick gritted his teeth and endured the damage from the Black Mist Hand as he walked towards Alfred.

Alfred was now losing control of himself. Only now did he realize the ill intentions of the mysterious summoner organization that had approached him yesterday. They had deceived him, intending to use him as a weapon to perish together with the high-ranking werewolves.

Alfred was unwilling to die like this, but his consciousness was becoming increasingly confused. His pupils had dilated, and black mist was constantly spewing out from his open mouth.

Warwick slapped him on the shoulder. "Kid, don't sleep."

Alfred's consciousness returned slightly, and he looked at the werewolf who walked directly in front of him, slightly surprised.

Warwick looked at him and said, "Listen, I don't care if you live or die, but you once received my master's gaze, so I won't let you die until my master makes it clear that he's not interested in you."

"You're in grave danger. You've been manipulated into launching a suicide attack against me. But even so, I'll be fine, just slightly injured, but you're dead."

Alfred gave him a puzzled and confused look.

So now the summoner wants him dead, while the wizard wants him to live?

Could it be that wizards truly represent the future...?

But does he still have a future?

If he wants a future, shouldn't he embrace the wizarding profession sooner?

Warwick gave a cold smile. "I will not allow anyone to disrupt what my master cares about, nothing at all."

"Now you must stay focused and not give up hope. Then..."

Warwick said, "That thing is binding your soul. You should have learned some basic potion-making meditation before. Now, practice that meditation in your mind, and I'll help you swallow that thing."

"Use meditation to save your life before I eat that thing."

The next moment, Warwick opened his wolf's mouth and unleashed Predator's Bite. At the same time, some gold began to appear on his fur, and golden hunter chains began to emerge on his left hand.

Within the Bite of Plunder, the aberrant aggregate of malevolent intent—the hand of black mist—is being continuously devoured by Warwick.

When Warwick absorbed the black mist hand and transformed into a golden werewolf hunter, his power traits underwent some changes.

Because they borrowed from the Golden Black Magic system, the Golden Werewolf Hunters possess the ability to be well-integrated with other power systems.
