Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 370 The Four Beasts of the God of Law

The red-eyed female zombie flew out of the swamp in an instant, moving with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, she had shortened the distance between herself and Su Nan. At the same time, she held the yellow-eyed zombie's head in her right hand, looking completely at ease.

Just as she approached, within fifty meters of Su Nan, she suddenly gritted her teeth and sneered, because the three golden werewolf hunters behind her were actually keeping up with her speed, closely following her.

"Not bad." The red-eyed female zombie turned around, her left hand transforming into a hand blade, allowing the two werewolves to strike her with their hunter claws. The werewolves' claws rubbed against the zombie's body, creating intense sparks. At the same time, a special rune appeared on her body. Su Nan observed that the rune was composed of four animal patterns, each of which was very unique.

Su Nan felt he had seen it somewhere before. "AI, search for runes composed of four patterns. I think I've definitely seen them somewhere before."

[Yes, searching...Found it! The image is recorded in the scriptures of the Law God, depicting the destruction of the four beasts by disobeying the Law God.]

[These four beasts were also sent to earth by the God of Law to show mortals the consequences of having no law, and to make them cherish the law more. The classic text about the God of Law, on page 133, paragraph 2, states: "One day, God cast the four beasts down to earth because He was annoyed by their incessant clamor in heaven, and even more so by the mortals' endless questioning of the law. Because people did not obey the law, these four beasts descended to earth to tell the world about the past world lacking law, in the ancient era when the evil sun ruled."]

[On page 156, paragraph 3 of the Law Classic, it is written: "The Lord of the Law seized the power of these four beasts from the ancient evil sun. These four beasts will surely bring calamity to mankind, threatening the world with danger and power, and strengthening people's faith in the gods. But the Lord of the Law is different from the ancient evil god; He sent down His own divine beings to rule over the four beasts."]

The red-eyed female zombie used her left hand to slash open Wolf Big's chest, and then used her right hand to cut Wolf Two's throat.

She suddenly frowned, put the blood stained with Wolf One and Wolf Two into her mouth and tasted it, then her expression changed. "This taste I hate."

"It's the power of a deity..."

All werewolves drank a trace of Su Nan's blood in the earliest werewolf curse transformation potion, and a small portion of Su Nan's spiritual power flows within them.

Looking back now, I realize that the reason my werewolf possessed such powerful immortality from the very beginning was because my blood was divine blood, possessing great spirituality.

Therefore, this red-eyed green zombie, which is clearly affected by the radiation of the so-called "Four Beasts" power, can sense that scent that seems to be its natural enemy.

According to the scriptures of the God of Law, the nemesis of the four beasts is the bloodline of the God of Law's divine family.

The red-eyed female green zombie suddenly looked at the two werewolves. She saw that the bodies of the two werewolves were rapidly recovering, and they were even more furious. Their strength had increased, and the magic potion was gradually being digested.

The two werewolves roared at her.

The red-eyed female green zombie seemed to have been provoked. "A mere living thing, yet so arrogant, wanting to compete in immortality? I am neither alive nor dead! A zombie!"

The next moment, she struck with both hands in quick succession, gouging out eyes, removing brains, and ripping out hearts. Each of her continuous attacks caused some form of maiming damage to Wolf One and Wolf Two.

The undead in the green swamp suddenly rioted and charged toward Su Nan, but were stopped by the wizards of the Witch's House.

The wizards in the Witch's House have very interesting magic. They turn themselves into rubber and then use the properties of rubber people to attack others.

So, their arms and legs would extend, and so on. When they fight the zombies, they would transform themselves into some kind of rubber rope or something similar to bind the zombies.

In any case, the combat style of transformation magic has always been unique.

Su Nan stood still, observing the ruins in the green swamp. After careful observation, Su Nan discovered that some of the buildings emerging from the swamp also bore the markings of the "Four Beasts".

In other words, this place once housed numerous temples dedicated to the worship of the "Four Beasts".

Within the green swamp, these remaining structures all possess a unique spirituality. This explains why the corpses that died in these swamps transformed into special undead creatures, and why things like the red-eyed green zombies were born.

Su Nan pondered, "The relationship between the four beasts and the God of Law is that they are both enemies and friends. And this swamp, according to legend, was once the capital of the Assyrian Empire, the wizarding empire."

"It seems that the Assyrian Empire once utilized the power of the 'Four Beasts'."

"But what does the Pure White School have to do with this?"

Su Nan pondered, "I never expected that coming here just to find the bodies of two second-ring creatures would bring such an unexpected surprise."

"Since we've come to this swamp, we might as well explore it and seize the inherited witchcraft array from the Pure White School while we're at it."

Su Nan looked up at the center of the battlefield and saw that the battle between the three werewolves and the female zombie was becoming increasingly fierce. The female zombie was impervious to blades and spears, and the werewolves' claws could hardly penetrate her defenses. However, the werewolves' multiple immortalities were also causing the female zombie great suffering.

Even if you remove their eyes or brains, they can actually grow back on their own!

This ability to remain immortal has reached a terrifying level, even surpassing those who are neither alive nor dead.

As the werewolves gradually absorbed the potion during the battle, the balance of power shifted to the other side, and the female zombie found it increasingly difficult to fight.

However, the werewolf blood, imbued with Su Nan's spiritual essence, which had been scattered throughout the swamp, was now undergoing a strange change. In the green swamp, the murals on many ancient, dilapidated buildings bearing the images of the four beasts suddenly lit up.

The entire swamp seemed to have undergone some kind of change because of the divine blood of Su Nan.

The Rubber Witch left the battlefield and ran to Su Nan's side. "Lord Su Nan, this is..."

Su Nan did not answer.

Instead, they observed the changes in the swamp, which was indeed closely related to the god of law.

……

On the other side of the waterside mossy swamp, in a red swamp, the Pure White School mobilized its entire force, with each wizard activating their inherited magic array for a week-long magical enhancement.

A week later, their school's traditional witchcraft array will automatically go into hibernation for a year.

The pure white wizard looked before him at a statue of a woman, with the name "Hera Assyria" carved on the back, hidden in the swamp bushes. The stone carving of the woman also had the pattern of four beasts appearing on her forehead, and it was flashing with magical light.

A look of ecstatic joy appeared on the pure white wizard's face. "I've been studying this swamp for ten years, and this is the first time I've seen anything like it."

"What happened to change this place?"

"Could it be that my ten years of hard work are finally going to pay off? This change must be for me."

Behind him, his son, the White Bird Wizard, exclaimed happily, "Father, this change must be because of you!"

"We'll soon find what that lord wants, and we'll also get our hands on the magical resources left behind by the ancient earth wizard Caspian Quinn before he went mad."

The Pure White Wizard looked around his group. In addition to the more than one hundred wizards from the Pure White School, there were also thirty wizards from the Emerald Pharmacy and more than fifty wizards from the Black Wizard Tower and the Ice Paradise.

However, most of the wizards from these other schools were bound in chains, clearly prisoners of the White School.

The Pure White Wizard turned to look at the Green Witch, a first-ring wizard from the Green Apothecary, and stared at her with a sinister gaze. He said, "From now on, the wizards in your organization must provide healing to our Pure White School. Otherwise, I will kill them one by one right now, turn their corpses into shadow puppets, and use them as our tools."

The Emerald Witch was a young woman who appeared to be in her early twenties, with an innocent and beautiful demeanor. However, at this moment, her face bore the whip marks inflicted by the wizards of the Pure White School. She turned her head away, gritting her teeth, and said, "I understand."

At the same time, the pure white wizard looked at the wizards of the Ice Paradise and said coldly, "The reason I haven't destroyed you is because your Evocation School's ice magic is very useful to me in this swamp. As long as you obediently use ice magic to create an ice path in the swamp, I can release you afterwards."

The Ice Wizard, a first-ring wizard from the Ice Paradise, appeared to be a middle-aged man. He sighed and said to the Pure White Wizard, "Yes, Pure White Wizard."

However, the wizards of the Black Wizard Tower were neither bound nor wounded; they were clearly allies of the Pure White School.

The Black Tower Wizard, a first-ring wizard from the Black Wizard Tower, said to the Pure White Wizard with a somewhat ingratiating smile, "Pure White Wizard, if you receive the inheritance, you will surely become a second-ring wizard."

"At that time, our Pure White Wizard Council will surely be able to take another step forward."

The Pure White Wizard nodded. "Now, I've launched a blitzkrieg against both the Emerald Apothecary and the Frozen Paradise. Their resources, heritage, and people are all in my hands. And your Black Wizard Tower willingly became a vassal of the Pure White School a long time ago."

"The remaining witch's house is nothing to fear. However, their transformation magic is excellent for survival, so I plan to deal with them later."

The pure white wizard sneered. "That lord also instructed me to aid the Palaiologos royal family of the Nicomedia Empire. So the royal family is now under my control. A royal princess witch offended me before, and now she has fallen into my hands as well."

The pure white wizard felt exceptionally good. "I am now the overlord of all of Asia Minor. When I advance further, I will even be able to touch other places, and I will no longer need to fear the Church or anything like that."

He told all the wizards, "The Four Beasts Runes have been activated."

"This means that the earth defense magic that has shrouded the swamp for thousands of years has opened a path for us, and we can now enter the true core area of ​​the swamp."

"The ancient earth wizard Caspian Quinn was a third-circle wizard who created many spells, such as the zombie magic and the golems that have been passed down to later generations and have had a profound impact on us."

The White Bird Wizard was shocked. "So the ancient earth wizard Caspian Quinn was the creator of golem magic. This is truly..."

The pure white wizard said, "So we also need to be especially careful about the golems here."

……

In the green swamp, the two arms of the flying red-eyed green zombie were held up by Wolf One and Wolf Two respectively.

At this moment, Wolf One and Wolf Two had completely transformed into Golden Werewolf Hunters, and with the Wolf Demon Claw, combined with Demon Blood Charging, Platinum Blood Boiling, and the Hunter Mask, they pierced through her body.

"I..." The red-eyed female green zombie clearly did not expect that these werewolves were so powerful that they could kill her, who had roamed this swamp for so many years.

"God of the Law, after so many years, have you finally remembered me and sent your messenger to let me enter the cycle of reincarnation once more?"

The next moment, her soul fire was crushed by the werewolf wearing a hunter's mask with red stripes, its claws shattering the flame. The wolf, its eyes gleaming with mockery, met her gaze through the hunter's mask.

The red-eyed female green zombie died.

After she died, all the undead in the green swamp scattered and fled, and Su Nan did not let the werewolves wipe them out.

After all, there are just too many of these zombies. Killing them would be a waste of time and wouldn't make much of a difference.

Su Nan placed the red-eyed female zombie's corpse into the Land of Bones. At the same time, he had Wolf Three target the yellow-eyed green zombie mixed among the living dead.

"Wolf One, Wolf Two, and Wolf Three, use your hunter chains to capture those yellow-eyed green zombies. Although they are a bit weak, they still have magic that makes them invulnerable to swords and spears, so they can be of some use."

Wolf One and Wolf Two immediately gave chase, running among the swamp zombies. In less than five minutes, they each used Hunter's Chains to bind three yellow-eyed zombies and then captured them.

Amidst its struggles and roars, the yellow-eyed zombie helplessly transformed into a three-headed golden werewolf hunter, with a small golden zombie statue on its left werewolf hunter chain.

At the same time, the three-headed werewolf hunter roared to the sky, and its fur turned noticeably green, showing zombie-like characteristics and becoming invulnerable to weapons.

The wizards of the Witch's House were filled with mixed emotions upon witnessing this scene.

Every time they come to this swamp, they have to be extremely careful, gathering a lot of information and strategies to learn how to avoid the large number of swamp zombies, and most importantly, to avoid provoking the yellow-eyed zombies.

As a result, now that Su Nan has made a move, not only can the yellow-eyed zombies be subdued, but even the red-eyed female zombies can be tamed.

The Rubber Witch said to Su Nan, "Lord Su Nan, I never imagined that with your power, you could even subdue such a ferocious beast."

"That's really impressive."

Su Nan tossed a newly researched Blood Arcane spell to the Black Rye Matriarch; it was the Blood Arcane spell [Blood Arcane Deflection Shield].

This shield is a defensive spell, but its most important function is that once it is deployed, it can deflect sunlight as long as it continues to be deployed.

In other words, a vampire who possesses this magic can walk in the sunlight and become unafraid of it, as long as they learn and consistently use this defensive magic!

However, continuously using this spell consumes a significant amount of mana, which will weaken combat power and incur additional mana costs.

Su Nan looked at the Rubber Witch and asked, "I have indeed obtained the second-ring undead creature. Where is the tree viper you mentioned earlier?"

The Rubber Witch said, "Please follow me. It's deeper in the swamp, in the Red Swamp. There's a mist within the Red Swamp that has always concealed its core area. So the Red Swamp is roughly the deepest point one can reach in this swamp."

"The Red Swamp has more historical relics than the Green Swamp. This swamp has five colors in total: Black Swamp (ordinary swamp), Green Swamp, Yellow Swamp, White Swamp, and Red Swamp."
