Wizard: Building a Cultivation Family from Scratch

Rolling around...

In an eerie atmosphere, Daniel's head slowly rolled to the hooves of Baron Hoover's warhorse before coming to a stop.

His wide-open eyes met the Baron's gaze in mid-air.

"No...no..." Baron Hoover's lips moved slightly, but suddenly his mind went blank.

Daniel...

No, this isn't true...

All of this happened so suddenly that Baron Hoover had no time to react.

But just then, a cry of alarm rang out from the side: "Baron, get out of the way!"

A knight bearing the Hoover family crest on his chest leaped from the side and tackled the Baron off his horse.

Almost at the same time, a cyan light blade flashed across the spot where the Baron had just been standing, and then instantly passed through the body of a soldier behind him.

The next moment, the soldier's body was immediately cut in two, and blood and internal organs gushed out.

  

"It's a wizard!" someone shouted.

Upon hearing this, the baron's soldiers and extraordinary knights immediately panicked.

wizard??

How could that be...?

Are there any other wizarding apprentices here besides Daniel?

Then, they couldn't help but look at Daniel's body again...

Everyone quickly recalled that Daniel's head had been severed by something resembling a wind blade...

Could there really be other wizards here?

Everyone immediately thought of this possibility.

Yes!

There must have been a wizard involved in this attack!

Otherwise, how could the Grey Gu mercenary group have dared to launch a preemptive attack on Baron Hoover's territory?

And then there was the attacker who just took the brunt of a fireball...

Damn it!

That's definitely a high-level enchanted item!

Besides wizards, who else could afford such expensive and luxurious things?!

Panic began to spread.

Throughout the entire continent, everyone knows what a terrifying bunch wizards are.

The difference between mortals and wizards is enormous.

If wizards were indeed involved in this attack, then they would have no chance of winning.

Thinking about this, many soldiers had already considered deserting.

The situation on the battlefield gradually began to change...

Baron Hoover, who had been tackled to the ground and narrowly escaped, had obviously noticed the situation.

But Aiko's death had completely driven him to madness.

The baron shoved away the family knights who were clinging to him, drew his sword sharply, his eyes bloodshot, and roared at the top of his lungs:

"Who dares to run? I'd like to see who dares to run!"

"Find that guy who only knows how to ambush others right now, I'm going to hang him!"

Upon seeing this, the extraordinary knight beside the baron quickly ran over and hugged him, urgently saying:

"Your Excellency, let's go quickly!"

"asshole!"

Baron Hoover roared in anger:

"Are you trying to desert?"

At this moment, the baron's eyes were frighteningly red, and he growled menacingly:

"I am your lord! You must obey my commands!!"

"But……"

The knight hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and said:

"Your Excellency, Daniel is dead..."

And he was killed by a wizard!

The other party was clearly prepared.

If we stay here any longer…

"Pfft!"

However, before he could finish speaking, a blood-stained longsword pierced through his back.

"Ahem... Your Excellency Baron! You..."

The knight stared wide-eyed at Baron Hoover in disbelief.

However, the Baron ignored him.

He abruptly drew his enchanted longsword, imbued with the [Sharp] rune, and roared at those around him:

"Go! Charge them all up there..."

"Da...da...da!"

Just then, the sound of horses' hooves came.

The baron instinctively turned his head to look.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a knight dressed in full knight's armor and wearing a black cloak rushing out of the forest not far away.

In the firelight, the Baron even had a fleeting illusion...

He could almost see a faint blue light flickering beneath the other man's heavy knight's helmet.

For some reason, the Baron suddenly had a feeling:

It was him, he killed Daniel!

Strangely...

At this point, Baron Hoover calmed down.

He stared intently at the unfamiliar knight before him, gripping his longsword tightly.

"Come on, you bastard! I don't care if you're a wizard or whatever, I'll make you pay for this in blood!"

However, to Baron Hoover's bewilderment, the other party did not seem to intend to make a move.

He simply stood quietly in the chaotic battlefield, moving his gaze to observe the surrounding situation, seemingly not taking him seriously at all.

That bastard...

Baron Hoover was furious. He could no longer bear the humiliation. With a roar, he gripped his sword and charged at his opponent like a mountain bear.

……

Gordon looked around and nodded in satisfaction.

Baron Hoover's army suffered heavy losses under the combined attack of the Grey Gu mercenaries and the Blackwater Knights.

He was particularly pleasantly surprised by the performance of the Blackwater Knights.

He discovered that the basic magical artifacts he had created, infused with [defense and restriction], had effects far exceeding his expectations.

And this made him realize...

Perhaps the cultivation system from the previous life would naturally have certain differences in levels if it were applied to this world.

However, this matter needs to be studied further later.

What pleased him most at the moment was that he had just taken the life of that wizard apprentice with a single wind blade spell.

However, Gordon knew this in his heart.

There was actually an element of luck involved.

Daniel was busy dealing with the old knight Granger at the time, which gave him the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

But no matter what, the result is always good.

And things are developing in the direction I planned...

However, just as Gordon was pondering this in his heart...

He suddenly noticed a middle-aged man dressed in magnificent knight's armor, wielding a longsword taller than himself, roaring as he charged toward him.

Seeing the other person's appearance, Gordon immediately guessed that this must be his main target this time - Baron Hoover.

Although they haven't fought yet, Gordon has already realized that Baron Hoover's strength is indeed extraordinary.

He's even above the old knight Granger, and is probably only one step away from breaking through to the level of a great knight.

Without a doubt, given his current close-combat abilities, if he were to engage in a one-on-one close-quarters fight with the opponent, he would probably be cut in two immediately.

But Gordon wasn't worried at all. He chuckled to himself and then raised his right hand:

[Secret Technique: Mental Puppet]!

Soon, a faint wisp of purplish-black energy shot into Baron Hoover's brow like a sharp arrow.

The next moment, Baron Hoover's momentum came to an abrupt halt!

"Turn around."

Gordon sat on his horse and said calmly.

By this time, the people on the battlefield had noticed this place, and they soon saw a horrifying scene.

After Gordon uttered the word "turn around," Baron Hoover's eyes suddenly became vacant, and he actually turned around...

Then, like a puppet on a string, he suddenly charged into his own troops...
