What kind of wizard are you if you don't have any entries?

After half a day.

Outside the astrological archives, two more wizarding apprentices arrived.

This brought the team's size to double digits, totaling 11 people.

Seeing that most of the manpower had arrived, Aglen looked up at the sky and decided not to wait any longer.

"Gentlemen!"

Aglen stood up, looked around at everyone, and said in a deep voice.

"Those who could come have basically all come, so let's begin!"

"Flander, Bering, you two take the summoned creatures and keep watch around the area."

"The rest of us joined forces to attack the mechanical beetle."

"Only by defeating the Mechanical Star Beetle and obtaining the Star Crystal can we inherit and acquire the [Precision] attribute within."

"And we can only get in after we take care of that big guy at the entrance."

Upon hearing this, everyone stood up, and their expressions toward the archives became much more serious.

Mechanical Star Beetles are notoriously difficult to deal with.

As he stood up, Vilin's gaze swept over the jumbled pile of rocks outside and the dense forest that was faintly visible in the mist, lost in thought.

"Someone is spying on us from the side; I don't know if it's some scattered wizards, or perhaps..."

Weilin rubbed his temples slightly.

"No matter what, we need to be careful."

With this in mind, Valin used the contractual connection between the summoned creature and the White Walkers to issue commands.

The White Walkers, having received their orders, walked out of the area like dull geese and hid among a pile of collapsed stone pillars.

After giving the instructions, everyone took their positions.

"Be careful, everyone, watch out for the casting of the spell!"

After giving some instructions, Aglen gave a wink to the heavily armored, burly young wizard in the arena.

The burly young wizard strode toward the star archway of the [Astrological Archives], which was engraved with stars.

Melee Wizard

This is a well-known school within the wizarding system.

These types of wizards either possess powerful "melee" stat bonuses,

Either it has a decent melee-type "conversion attribute".

For example, long-range magic can be transformed into powerful melee magic.

Or perhaps it's converting life force into melee magic power, and so on.

Furthermore, the [Melee Wizard] does not attack with bare hands; they also utilize various melee spells.

However, the range of their melee spells is only within 10 or 20 yards of themselves.

It is far less than the hundreds of yards that other wizards can release, or even hundreds of yards for special spells.

But overall, melee wizards require quite a few [items].

Furthermore, before the melee wizard's [affix system] was fully developed, it did not have a significant advantage over conventional wizards.

However, once a "melee wizard" is fully developed, it becomes a typical example of someone who is extremely durable and resilient.

It is far more powerful than the "Blood Demon Wizard".

The young melee wizard had been in the wide doorway for a short while.

Clang... Clang...

Waaah...

The heavy, dull thud of machinery colliding with the earth struck everyone's hearts.

It was also mixed with a low, mechanical hissing high-frequency sound.

Many wizards looked solemnly toward the passageway.

Suddenly!

"Sizzle sizzle..."

A semi-transparent beam of flame, mixed with starlight, suddenly shot out.

The young melee wizard, wearing a shield that resembled a tortoise shell, flew backwards as he emerged.

Fortunately, he was agile and landed with a roll to regain his balance.

"As expected of a melee wizard, their physical skills are truly impressive!"

The melee warrior had just raised his shield.

sizzle...

The scorching red light shot out again.

I wonder what powerful attributes the tortoise shell shield wielded by that melee wizard has.

The scorching rays that could easily kill a low-level wizard were blocked by him holding up his battle shield.

However, judging from his condition of supporting his battle shield while retreating step by step, his face was flushed.

Clearly, fighting against such a powerful creature as the Mechanical Star Beetle is no easy task.

Immediately afterwards, a [Mechanical Star Beetle] about the size of a small car charged out angrily.

This mechanical star beetle is pure white, with many magical patterns of stars, suns, and moons on its body.

Whether it's the back of the carapace, the body, or the limbs, they are covered with dense lines and textures.

With a single glance, Verin sensed the extremely complex and intricate magical energy pathways.

"Exquisite work of art!"

As he silently praised it, Vilin's spell, "Tentacle Missile," was already launched.

boom!

The exploded magic missile quickly condensed into a blood-red tentacle, which lashed out at the back of the mechanical beetle.

The other wizard apprentices were also quite skilled in witchcraft.

The newly emerged mechanical beetle was subjected to a powerful wave of magical attacks.

hissing...

The attacked mechanical beetle hissed, and the dark blue brightness of its energy channels increased significantly.

I wonder if that melee wizard used some powerful magical artifact.

The mechanical beetle showed no intention of changing its target; it simply aimed at the melee wizard with the shield and launched a fierce attack.

This scene actually reassured the other wizards a lot.

While keeping a close watch on his surroundings, Vilin unleashed spells to attack the mechanical star beetles.

Compared to other wizards, Vellin's spells are much more powerful.

Knowing this, Vilin naturally wouldn't unleash his full power in the spell.

Increasing the power of witchcraft is very difficult.

But there are many ways to weaken the power of a curse.

Using less magic, adding fewer magic-amplifying syllables to spells, and so on.

These are all effective ways to reduce the power of witchcraft.

Even though Vellin had reduced the power of his spells by more than half, his tentacle missiles and those bloody tentacles still performed quite well in the arena.

There are shield-wielding melee wizards who draw aggro.

In addition, there were the group's spell attacks and some control-type witchcraft.

Even though the mechanical beetle is tough and resilient, after a dozen or twenty rounds of sorcery attacks, it was still able to withstand the onslaught.

Click click... click click...

He was covered in wounds, staggered, and even had some parts dangling inside his body.

After more than a dozen rounds of witchcraft bombardment.

The mechanical beetle finally couldn't hold on any longer.

Waaah... Clang...

After letting out a low, mournful cry, it collapsed completely to the ground.

"good!"

"Well done!"

"This big guy, if it weren't for our large numbers and good preparation, it would have been really difficult for three or five people to deal with him."

"This mechanical beetle is a minor leader-level mechanical life form."

As the mechanical beetle fell to the ground, several of the more unrestrained and cheerful wizards cheered loudly.

"It's definitely a tough fight, especially since we outnumber them!"

While many wizard apprentices were still immersed in the joy of hunting mini-bosses.

what--

A particularly shrill scream suddenly rang out, sweeping across the entire scene!

The faces of the many wizards who looked over upon hearing the sound changed drastically.

Not far away, a young wizard dressed in a black vampire robe with a red lining was holding a severed head in his hand, looking at the crowd with a mocking and cold smile.

The headless corpse lying on the ground was none other than the wizard "Flander" who had been keeping watch for everyone.

Strangely, no blood dripped from Flander's head in the vampire wizard's hands, and the head appeared to be alive, its face filled with horror and despair.

"It's Erosath of the Blood Curse Wizarding Order."

A gasp rang out from the crowd; though the sound was faint, it was clearly heard by Weilin.

Eross's gaze swept across the entire room with disdain, completely disregarding Verin and the others.

"You did a great job, you can get out of here now!"

"This astrological archive is not a place for trash like you!"

Aglen took a few steps forward, his face ashen.

"You?"

"oh!"

Eros's lips curved into an exaggerated smile, revealing his sharp fangs.

"Trying to bully the few with the many?"

"What a pity! I have more men than you do."

The mist behind Eros gradually dissipated.

A dozen or so young wizards from the Blood Curse Wizarding Order, dressed in blood-red and gold-plated robes and well-equipped, appeared.
