Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 380 The Royal Palace of the Assyrian Empire

Sunan and the others, along with the ghouls, pursued the Pure White School through the swamp. But at that moment, the brass ring that connected Sunan, Mary, the Rubber Witch, and the Petrifying Witch suddenly began to heat up.

Su Nan sensed that the petrifying witch was using a brass ring to transfer a curse to him. Without hesitation, he accepted it, after all, he now possessed the divine abilities of the Heraclius family, which allowed him to transform a curse into a blessing.

It was clear, however, that the petrifying witch was contacting him in this way because she had something very urgent to discuss.

Soon, the sky turned into a storm, and Su Nan, the Rubber Witch, and the "Justice" Witch appeared at the Storm Gathering Place.

At this moment, the latest round of transactions in the gathering has ended, and only the Petrifying Witch and the 'World' Witch remain.

Su Nan said to the petrification witch, "Petrification witch, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly use the brass ring to curse me? That's too dangerous. I meant you."

The petrifying witch was now drenched in cold sweat; casting a curse on a second-circle wizard would have severe backlash.

Su Nan fared relatively well, proactively sharing most of the magical backlash with her. In any case, that level of backlash was utterly ineffective against the permanent defensive field on the surface of a second-circle wizard's soul.

But the petrifying witch didn't know that the "Justice" witch had also become a second-circle wizard, so she was now suffering a severe backlash.

The petrifying witch gave a wry smile. "I should have gone to the Mossy Marsh with you guys. How come even the 'Justice' witch has become a second-circle wizard now?"

Mary offered a brief explanation: "I had a serendipitous encounter in the swamp, but I also have to thank Su Nan for resolving the potential problem of my rapid power increase."

The Rubber Witch said, "Petrifying Witch, I'd like to switch places with you. You have no idea how dangerous this swamp is right now. My witch's headquarters is still nearby, and I can't escape even if I wanted to."

"The situation over there is getting bigger and bigger, and it could even cause the end of the world if we're not careful."

What she said was a bit of an exaggeration, after all, even if the emperor went mad, he would only be a fourth-circle wizard.

At most, it might destroy half of the world; it probably wouldn't be able to completely destroy the world.

The petrifying witch frowned. "I heard from 'The World' that there's an evil school of wizards in Asia Minor, but I didn't expect the problem to be this serious. You all should keep working hard over there. This old man is currently searching for magical resources in a small country far from the Storm Kingdom."

"But this time it's the 'world,' and the situation is urgent."

The World Witch weakly recounted the situation. She had no magic left, and if the Petrifying Witch hadn't automatically pulled her into the Storm Gathering, she wouldn't have been able to contact anyone.

After hearing her question, Su Nan's expression turned strange. "So that's how it is. The Pure White School actually kidnapped four of the five wizarding organizations in Asia Minor and took them into the swamp with him."

"However, your problem is easy to solve. I'll give you a bottle of Flash Potion +2. Take it in the real world and drink it to restore your mana. Be careful, you should be able to get out of the swamp on your own."

"However, at the Storm Gathering, every deal requires an exchange."

The World Witch was a little panicked. "Then, Teacher Moon, could you give me some cheaper potions? I don't have any high-value items that I can exchange with you for a +2 Flash Potion."

Su Nan tossed the potion to her. "No need. Just tell me the details of the current situation of the Pure White School."

"This is the deal details."

The "World" witch breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a touch of gratitude. "I never expected 'Moon' teacher to be so kind to me at this crucial moment."

"I had considered joining his ranks before, but that was because of my original wizarding organization. Now that my original organization has abandoned me, I think it might really be time to switch to another one."

The "World" witch immediately recounted the story, emphasizing it four times: the wizards of the Pure White School always liked to find a place to rest and adjust their state in the swamp, and then talk to their shadows.

Su Nan pondered, "Something is hidden in their shadows."

Su Nan said goodbye to them and then left the Storm Gathering.

……

On the edge of the core area in the mossy marshland by the water.

The World Witch left the Storm Gathering as if clutching her life, holding the +2 Flash Potion bottle tightly. Upon returning to reality, she drank the potion without hesitation.

Then, her body emitted a bright magical glow.

One minute later, her magic was restored.

Without hesitation, the "World" witch immediately used a healing spell to envelop the six wizard apprentices beside her.

The six wizard apprentices were overjoyed.

The "World" witch said, "Everyone, I have received help from the wizarding gathering organized by the wizarding organization I mentioned before. Everyone, why don't we switch to another wizarding organization? That organization is called the Werewolf Empire, and it even has second-ring wizards."

The six wizard apprentices, who were originally from the Emerald Apothecary, did not hesitate much at this moment. After all, their school had abandoned them, and it was the werewolf empire that was providing help at this critical moment.

Moreover, as herbalists, it's perfectly normal for them to seek out powerful wizarding organizations to attach themselves to.

In any case, even if they didn't resent the Green Pharmacy, they were all exhausted at the moment and could no longer trust that the Green Pharmacy had the ability to protect them.

So they all started currying favor with the "World" witch. After all, if they wanted to join a new and powerful wizarding organization, especially one with second-circle wizards, they would still need the "World" witch's introduction.

"Then we'll leave things to you from now on, Senior Sister. I hope we won't be bullied by anyone in that second-ring level wizarding organization, the Werewolf Empire."

"The Emerald Pharmacy really can't stay. Asia Minor is now the territory of the Pure White School. If we stay here, we'll only be coerced by them. We need to find a powerful wizarding organization, otherwise we won't even have the right to maintain a semblance of independence."

The "World" witch recovered slightly, and some color returned to her face. "Don't worry, everyone. That second-circle wizard is a very good person, and we're acquainted."

Although most of the previous relationships were not good ones.

……

In the core swamp region, after Sunan, Mary, and the Rubber Witch left the Storm Gathering, Sunan gave everyone a brief explanation before heading towards the direction of the Pure White School's colossal mechanical bird.

About half an hour later, when Su Nan and his group arrived there, Su Nan saw that among the ruins of the swamp buildings, there was actually a palace that had sunk into the swamp.

Most of the buildings in that palace had collapsed, and among them were even several wizard towers.

Su Nan had initially thought he could acquire a lot of Wizard Tower resources this time, but after taking a quick look, he was greatly disappointed.

The Assyrian imperial palace was the most severely damaged. All the wizard towers there had weathered away and would disintegrate at the slightest touch.

Meanwhile, Su Nan saw the Pure White School members fighting against the colossal bird golem.

The pure white wizard was also in the midst of the battle when he saw the intruder. His tone changed instantly, filled with surprise and anger; anger and tyranny.

"How could a strange wizard have entered my swamp at this time?"

"Prepare! Use the Shadow Strike Array against that golem. Inherited Witchcraft Array, activate it! Emerald Medicine House, heal me! Otherwise, I'll slaughter you all immediately!"

"You guys go up to the Black Wizard's Tower too!"

At this moment, the wizards of the Frozen Paradise had already been used as meat shields by the wizards of the Pure White School in the previous battle, so they were all wiped out.

Therefore, the Pure White Wizard had no choice but to send his allies forward as shields.

The Pure White Wizard looked at the Rubber Witch. "Rubber Witch, have your men come too! If you can help me destroy this war golem, I'll forgive you for trespassing into our Pure White School's swamp!"

The Rubber Witch was dumbfounded; she hadn't expected the Pure White Wizard to be so domineering.

Su Nan laughed, making no attempt to hide his laughter. "Pure White Wizard, hasn't anyone ever said you look like a clown?"
