Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 371 The First Wizard Empire in History

In the Red Swamp, the Rubber Witch led Su Nan to an area where there were suspected second-ring creatures.

The Red Swamp region is even more dangerous. All the creatures here seem to be enraged. Even the most ordinary swamp rhinoceros will charge at humans if it sees them.

Moreover, the Red Swamp area has even more ancient relics, with ruins of ancient buildings everywhere.

In a dilapidated ancient palace, Su Nan saw many corpses dressed in the white robes of the Pure White School of Wizardry, who had clearly died recently.

Hearing someone approach, a first-ring wizard dressed in pure white school robes cried out for help from a corner of the dilapidated palace.

"Help...help...save me! I am a first-circle wizard of the Pure White School. Young people, if you save me, you will have a favor to do for me as a formal wizard..."

An old man, his face completely blackened, cried for help.

A wizard apprentice from the Witch's House took out a ritual knife and was about to step forward to kill the old man, but Su Nan stopped him.

The witch's apprentice from the witch's house bowed to Su Nan and said, "Respected second-ring wizard, I am going to kill him."

"I'm not going to save him."

"During the previous conflict between the Witch's House and the Pure White School, my younger brother died at the hands of their school. I want to kill a high-ranking member of the Pure White School with my own hands."

The Rubber Witch's expression immediately changed, and she scolded her, "Whatever Lord Su Nan says goes, how dare you make excuses?"

Su Nan waved his hand and smiled at the witch apprentice, "I don't mind what you do. But you're clearly inexperienced and don't understand what's happening now."

"Do you think he was really calling for help? Look at the tree behind him."

The witch's apprentice immediately looked at a tree in the corner of the ancient palace behind the old wizard of the Pure White School who had cried for help.

The tree branches were crooked and twisted, which looked rather strange.

But Su Nan snapped his fingers, and the demonic pressure pressed down on the tree. Suddenly, the 'tree' moved, and a two-ringed creature with scales the color of tree bark—a viper—moved. It opened its mouth and dripped venom continuously.

The apprentice who had just tried to finish off the enemy turned pale with fright. She hadn't expected that a level two creature, specializing in venom, had been standing in the corner all along.

If she had walked over there just now... she would have been dead for sure.

Su Nan said, "That wizard from the Pure White School never had good intentions from the start. He must have been abandoned by the Pure White School and had already accepted the fact that he would gradually die here. But when he found us approaching, he immediately changed his mind and asked us for help, hoping to take one person with him before he died."

The wizards of the Pure White School looked at the three first-ring wizards of the Pure White School who were being controlled by Su Nan and exclaimed with delight, "So it's you! Come and save me!"

"Come quickly and save me!"

But the three first-ring wizards of the Pure White School only looked at him with a cold smile, and then said to Su Nan, "It's strange, we feel that this enemy is so familiar, Master, why does he specifically ask us for help?"

"Master, this enemy looks like a stray dog, all disheveled."

Su Nan smiled but didn't say anything.

The severely injured old wizard of the Pure White School looked at Su Nan with a horrified expression, "It's you! You controlled them! Who are you, and how dare you oppose our Pure White School?"

"The Pure White School has taken control..."

The next moment, the viper lashed his head with its tail, severing his head completely.

The viper's eyes were bloodshot, as if filled with rage.

Then, the viper that had been disguised as a tree charged directly at Su Nan and the others, intending to bite Su Nan. But the next moment, it was stopped by the three golden werewolf hunters.

It bit down on Wolf Big's arm. As a result, Wolf Big drew power from the yellow-eyed green zombie, making him invulnerable to blades and spears, preventing even the viper from biting through the werewolf's skin and injecting its venom.

Su Nan noticed that the viper was moving very fast, so he crushed a bottle of second-circle sleeping spell and injected it into the viper's body with an injection spell to slow it down.

Then, after more than twenty minutes of fighting, the two-ringed viper was knocked unconscious by the three-headed werewolf and lay on the ground.

Su Nan walked over and sealed the viper with a sleeping spell again. At the same time, he examined the viper's body and said, "The creatures in the Red Swamp are filled with anger, but I can sense that their anger does not come from themselves."

Su Nan poured a bottle of alien separation potion onto its body. Then Su Nan saw a lot of spiritual power that did not belong to the viper emanating from its body.

Su Nan ordered the Black Rye Matriarch to contact the spirits floating in mid-air, and then use the wolf pack effect to perceive the information contained within those spirits.

Then, in an instant, through the Rye Matriarch, Su Nan saw corpses covering the mountains and fields, countless fallen soldiers on the battlefield, and cities that had been massacred. A man stood atop the city walls he had conquered, giving a grand speech.

"Look, all the enemies that stood in the way of the Assyrian Empire are dead."

"If one person rebels, kill one person; if ten people rebel, kill ten people; if a hundred people rebel, kill a hundred people. If the whole world rebels against me, then I will slaughter them until they all submit to me."

"The Assyrian Empire was a wizarding empire built on death and conquest. Rebels, be angry. Let that anger render you even more powerless. This is the curse of the first wizarding empire."

"I will establish the oldest laws here, promulgate the code of the earth wizards, and in this capital, all enemies of the empire will be corrupted by their own rage."

"In my Wizard Empire, wizards and mortals will be two different species. Mortals will be merely livestock raised by wizards, while low-level wizards will be livestock raised by high-level wizards."

"In my wizarding empire, all who resist will be slaughtered!"

Su Nan and the Rye Matriarch broke free from their spiritual illusions.

The Rye Matriarch's face was somewhat pale, as if the violent spirit had truly harmed her. "Master, there are still some cruel people among the wizards."

"I feel so awful right now..."

After the Rye Matriarch came into contact with that spirituality, a violent emotion gradually rose within her. Her eyes also revealed a red, angry light, like that of a viper.

Su Nan didn't care much. He used the Ring of Myrcart to stick it on the Rye Mistress.

Suddenly, a serpent god appeared, coiling around the soul of the Rye Matriarch. "How can there be such delicious chaos?"

"Su Nan, did you know that the Demon King of the Abyss has the ability to sense chaotic areas? This swamp beneath your feet is truly... a delicious mess of chaos."

"This is... there's even..."

Su Nan nodded and said, "So even the God of the Abyss can sense it. Beneath this swamp lies the distorted and broken laws of the Assyrian Empire. When wizards establish an empire, they can create a special magical structure within the magical tides, which in turn gives rise to laws."

"Since the Assyrian Empire was the first wizarding empire..."

"There must be laws, so here are the laws of the Assyrian Empire."

"Could it be that the goal of the Pure White School is something like this?"
