Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 366 Finding the Intelligent Ghoul

At the foot of the Leaning Tower of Miletus, Su Nan waved, opening the tower's gate in the air, and walked into the tower, ascending the spiral stone staircase inside.

As Su Nan climbed each step, he saw a shadowy ripple appear on the surface of the spiral stone staircase.

Su Nan quickly walked up the steps to the top of the Leaning Tower of Miletus. After all, the external height of the tower is only 100 meters, and the internal height must be even lower.

But inside the bell tower at the very top of the Leaning Tower of Miletus, there was nothing but some huge, rotating gears.

Su Nan frowned and looked at the Arcane Intuition Ring on his right index finger. The ring was flashing a warning yellow light, while the brass ring on his left hand became even hotter.

The "Justice" witch is definitely here.

But having come this far, I have no way of finding out why she is here. There can only be one reason—she has been sealed away.

Su Nan had the AI ​​record the situation here, and at the same time whispered, "Judging from the sealing magic system of the Path of Exile, there should be a phase space here created using sealing energy."

"By using the same spatial coordinates but with phases on opposite sides, a relatively perfect sealed space is created. This phase-space sealing method is difficult to break due to mere coincidence."

Su Nan crushed a bottle of Path of Exile potion while constantly adjusting the frequency of the sealed energy to test if there was a phase space here.

In fact, the Bone Lands had already used phase magic, so the Bone Lands had three layers of space.

All three layers of space exist within the same spatial coordinate system, but in different phases, much like the positive and negative signs of numbers.

For example, 1 can be -1, +1, or an absolute value.

Ten minutes later, Su Nan became alert. "Found it."

The Path of Exile found a special phase space located here and used sealing energy to impact that sealed space, resulting in water-like ripples appearing in the air inside the entire Leaning Tower of Pisa.

Then, Su Nan saw that in the gear position where there had been no one, the "Justice" witch Mary Valleillo was tied up, her hands clasped together, and a shadow pierced through her.

Meanwhile, Marie-Barréeillo had her eyes closed, seemingly enduring some kind of pain.

Su Nan immediately recognized that she had been subjected to a type of sealing magic, a special form of torture used by the Pure White School to torment wizards.

Generally speaking, once a wizard breaks through to the first level, their mental strength is rarely this low.

It was no easy feat to accurately reduce the mental strength of three first-ring wizards to just 101. At the same time, Su Nan noticed that their magical power was extremely chaotic; it appeared powerful, but in reality, it would collapse on its own with the slightest touch.

Moreover, their understanding of magic and the spell models they created were also flawed.

Su Nan frowned. "Now, can just anyone become a first-ring wizard?"

It seems that the Pure White School must have made a deal with some power, resulting in them mastering a method for mass-producing first-level wizards.

Of course, the pseudo-first-ring wizards created by this method are just for show. A genuine first-ring wizard can easily kill a group of these pseudo-first-ring wizards.

Under Su Nan's magical pressure, these three pseudo-first-ring wizards were rendered unable to move or retaliate. Their permanent defensive force fields were even on the verge of self-destructing under Su Nan's magical pressure.

The three first-ring wizards of the Pure White School gritted their teeth and persevered. They knelt on one knee, and all the pride and self-satisfaction they had felt in becoming first-ring wizards in the past few days vanished at this moment.

How can someone be so amazing?

It turns out that even if they became first-ring wizards, they were just a bunch of small fry in Asia Minor.

This person must be incredibly skilled, not that they're bad at the game!

The Myrcart Ring on Su Nan's hand vibrated, and the illusory image of the Serpent God appeared beside Su Nan, saying to him, "These people carry the aura of that energy world whose name cannot be spoken."

"Su Nan, there's something wrong with these people. They're clearly wizards, natural enemies of that world. I suspect these wizards have sided with that world."

"Or, at least, we reached some kind of cooperation treaty with that world."

Su Nan glanced at Mary Balleillo and discovered that her mental strength had reached 600, which was the limit for a first-ring wizard.

This surprised Su Nan slightly, because Mary's advancement speed was almost the same as his. What surprised Su Nan even more was that the symbol of the Ghoul King appeared on the back of Mary's right hand.

That was exactly the intelligent ghoul I had been searching for, also from the world of blood!

After a brief moment of surprise, Su Nan quickly recovered and used the Reversal Spell to summon an ordinary werewolf messenger from his Peter Earl's Territory, and had him bring a White Leaf Tree sap stabilizing agent from the laboratory.

Taking advantage of the fact that the "Justice" witch was sealed, Su Nan used blood arcane magic to draw some spiritual energy from the back of her hand and stored it in ten bottles of White Leaf Tree sap stabilizing potion.

It took twenty minutes.

However, everyone present was either sealed away or was being suppressed by Su Nan's demonic pressure to the point of being unable to breathe, so they could only watch as he collected Mary's spirituality.

Su Nan mixed the spirituality of a wise ghoul with that of a wolfsbane and a vampire. As a result, the three spiritualities intertwined in an empty potion bottle, sometimes becoming violent and sometimes calm.

Constantly changing.

However, Su Nan still realized that although the combination of the three elements made things very chaotic, in reality, the spirituality of the combination of the three elements had become more powerful.

Su Nan said in a voice only he could hear, "My guess is correct."

"Intelligent ghouls can make werewolves and vampires even stronger. This might be the direction in which werewolves and vampires can break through the third ring."

"But with the mixed spirituality becoming three, the situation becomes much more complicated. The difficulty is hundreds of times greater than before."

"An ordinary second-circle wizard might spend over a hundred years figuring out the rules governing the fusion of these three elements. However, with my AI, I can skip this process and calculate the rules in a shorter amount of time."

Su Nan looked at Marie Valleillo.

After only a few months apart, she unexpectedly became the King of Ghouls.

A first-circle wizard from the Pure White School slowly propped himself up and chanted a spell.

Su Nan didn't turn around, but said, "Not bad, you're probably the strongest of the three weak first-ring spells. I didn't expect that even under my magical pressure, it took you twenty-five minutes to gradually condense a first-ring spell."

"However, if you dare to attack me, I will retaliate immediately."

Among the three wizards of the Pure White School, a middle-aged man gritted his teeth, a shadowy tooth hidden in his palm—the first-circle spell [Pure White Shark Tooth].

Once he activates it, a shadow shark's tooth will appear and attack the target.

After hesitating for a long time and going through an internal struggle, he suddenly broke the spell and bowed his head to Su Nan.

"My esteemed wizard, we do not know what level of wizard you are. Perhaps you are a wizard at the first level of the limit."

His vision is too limited, and he's too gullible; he couldn't even tell that Su Nan was a second-ring wizard.

He said, "But the Pure White School and the Pure White Council have no intention of being your enemies. If we have offended you in any way, we can apologize and make amends. It's just that that woman is a Pure White Wizard, who was specially sealed here."

"Our Pure White School now has a lot of first-ring wizards... unlike before. We will soon be able to unify the Asia Minor region and become the regional overlord."

"so……"

Su Nan scoffed. "What threat do wizards of your caliber pose to me, no matter how many there are? So why should I give you face?"

"Neill Oliver."

Neil Oliver, who had been ashamed and lowered his head, realized that Su Nan was right.

Even if he had become a first-ring wizard through that special method, it would still have been insignificant to him. But the next moment, he was horrified, because he didn't know why Su Nan knew his name.

At this moment, Su Nan could use the human virtual machine to transform into the state of an arcane vampire marquis, and at the same time, Su Nan pointed his finger at Mary's forehead. "Wake up, Mary Valleillo."

The Pale Cage Curse wasn't a particularly powerful sealing spell, since the Pure White School wasn't particularly skilled in sealing magic. Therefore, Su Nan only needed the previous twenty-odd minutes to analyze the method to break the curse while preserving Mary's soul intact.

The spell on Mary's soul was broken, and she suddenly opened her mouth and let out a cry, from which she spat out shadows.

Those shadows are all special sealed energies.

Now they have all left her soul.

After leaving Mary's body, the energy sealed by those shadows actually tried to rush towards Su Nan, but before it could get close, it was completely crushed by Su Nan's demonic pressure.

Inside the clock tower.

Mary also woke up from her deep sleep.

After she broke free of the seal, she used her own magic to dispel the Shadow Spikes spell that bound her hands, and fell to the ground from the gears.

She struggled to her feet, her body aching from the torture inflicted on her body and mind by the Pure White School. Mary was unsteady on her feet. She looked at Su Nan gratefully and said, "Thank you."

"Sunan Peter, my friend. I was in despair at the time, and after sensing you, I just wanted to give it a try. I never expected that you would actually come to save me."

She glared at the three first-ring wizards with hatred.

The three smugglers were so frightened that their hearts were trembling.

Mary was the kind of ruthless person who would retaliate on the spot if she had a grudge. She immediately picked up the iron thorn whip on the ground and lashed it at them, making them scream in agony. Their bodies were covered with wounds from the iron whip, and they were covered in blood, a truly gruesome sight.

Mary sneered, "You three idiots, how dare you torture me like that?"

Ten minutes later, Mary walked weakly toward Sunan and said, "Thank you again, my best friend."

"You seem to be a second-circle wizard now. I thought I was the only one who had this extraordinary encounter, and I was even looking forward to surprising you when we met. But I never expected that you would help me again."

Su Nan nodded and said, "Yes, I'm on the second ring road."

He wagged his index finger. "But no need to thank me, because I charge for this service."

"I saved you, so you should at least pay me an equal reward."

"For example, give me some magical resources. Also, tell me the background and history of this place, and the wizarding forces in Asia Minor."

"Why would the Pure White Council suddenly target you? You are a princess of the Nicomedia Empire, and your brother, Michael VIII, is he not going to help you?"

Mary Balleillo smiled. "Indeed."

"This is very much in line with Lord Su Nan's style of doing things, but I am still very grateful to you."

Mary called him Lord Sunan again.

This is a sign of respect for a second-circle wizard. The two are indeed good friends, but now that there is a difference in their ranks, Mary can no longer address Su Nan as casually as before, unless she also becomes a second-circle wizard, in which case their status will be equal.

Mary said to Sunan, "That's exactly what I was thinking. In Miletus, I unintentionally obtained the legacy left behind by Thales, the origin of all things."

"Here you go. This is a potion recipe I got over there. It will definitely be useful to you and should be enough as a reward for the friend who saved me."

Su Nan glanced at Mary, then checked the information Mary had transmitted directly through her mind. The name of the potion was [Sangarios Water Potion].
