Wizard: Starting with Symbiosis with Algae

Lynn roared, and the apprentices froze, frozen in place.

Everyone has moments of fear, and Lynn expressed her understanding.

But he didn't rely on sheer force to control the sand worms.

Scaled pike

[Heartstring Fluctuation: Consumes a small amount of magic power to slightly fluctuate the target's nerves. The more blurred or lower the target's consciousness, the better the effect.]

This was the first time Lynn had used this characteristic of the pike.

When dealing with Iron Man Elon, he chose a quick and decisive battle, without resorting to these roundabout tactics.

But this occasion is just right.

Even though the effects of this damned, interfering environment weakened the range of the heartstring vibrations within a few dozen meters, the results were still immediate. Coupled with the overwhelming aura of the pike, as long as magic power was continuously injected, the sand worms would submit. And so, the person was saved, wasn't he?

The vines were binding her a little too tightly, so Lynn twisted and turned in the tumbleweeds, adjusting her position to lie down.

If the situation hadn't been so dire, Lynn would have preferred to watch the apprentices fight a little longer; he lacked a proper understanding of second-level apprentices. Seeing them so helpless was a rare sight for Lynn.

The observation revealed a significant difference between these individuals and Ruby.

In Lynn's memory, Ruby was a level two who remained calm under pressure, and so was Joe.

Are Joe and Ruby both elites?

Lynn thought so.

If so, then he is also an elite.

He noticed the rather unusual one among the remaining four.

Sephir, with blue hair and dressed in clean white, looked nothing like someone who had taken a risk, and seemed to be well taken care of.

She must be a woman from a certain family.

However, Lynn thought again that there was nothing to worry about in the affairs of a large family.

Ruby comes from a large family, and nobody knows what she's doing now.

Lynn withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to the characteristics of the sand worm.

[Observed characteristics of sand worms]

[Gather Sand Blocks: Use a very small amount of magic power within your body to piece together sand blocks, then spit out the entire block.]

With no special characteristics, low magic power, and being overweight, Lynn could only describe it as utterly worthless.

A purely low-level monster. Even lower than a regular electric worm.

There's no need to hold back anymore.

He silently recited in his heart

"Flying sticks, hunt them down."

Several streaks of blue lightning flashed past Lynn's side.

In the high temperatures, the flying rod's movement speed is even faster than it could be at its fastest speed on the dune planet. The hot air facilitates its movement, slightly reducing the need to activate its arc mode.

In the blink of an eye, the flying rod covered a distance of tens of meters, launching a lightning-fast surprise attack, piercing through the desert and burrowing into the heart of the sand worm.

With a single strike, a large plume of yellow sand gushed from the mouth of the first sand worm, and its massive body crashed to the ground.

Without pausing, the flying rod burrowed into the worm's heart, passing through several key segments before anyone could react, and then locked onto its next target.

"Powerful, swift, what kind of magic is this!"

"I, I, I don't know!"

The remaining worms, seeing this, tried to escape, their plump bodies desperately burrowing into the sand.

Lynn ordered all the flying rods to attack freely. They then attacked based on their own experience and talents.

The result was significant. Although these worms were quite fast and even tried to burrow into the sand for protection, so what? At the same level of magic power, larger size does indeed mean greater strength. But each sub-level of magic power is clearly hierarchical. The worms' carapaces simply couldn't withstand the concentrated magic power of the flying rod.

Another bolt of lightning pierced the hard outer shell, followed by a hissing sound as the internal tissues were instantly burned by the intense heat. Yellow fluid splattered everywhere.

Lynn had already foreseen the outcome of this battle.

Without a doubt, he won again.

Flying Rod, indulging in its picky eating habit again, destroyed the sand worm's heart and the magic concentration points on its body segments before leaving the massive creature on the ground. But since victory was already achieved, waste was the victor's prerogative.

The apprentices exclaimed in surprise:

"What is that—what is that blue dot?"

"How can he be so strong!"

"How come it's completely unaffected by the environment!"

Lynn lay on the ground, feeling good.

The flying stick performed quite well, so the pike doesn't need to be taken out for now, which is good. The only thing that's bothering him is that if the tumbleweeds scatter, he'll be harder to deal with. He rolled too hard just now, breaking several knots in the vines, and a few tumbleweeds have already rolled far away. He'll have to re-tie them later, which will be quite a hassle.

Lynn looked everyone over.

Logically, the person who was rescued should have come over to express their gratitude by now.

Lynn lay on the ground and waited for two seconds.

Not a single person dared to step forward.

……

Sephir stood in the middle of the group. She took a step back along with her three remaining teammates.

"What's wrong, Kayla... Why did you stop? We're already out of danger, aren't we?"

Unlike her teammates who kept their eyes open the whole time, Sephir was too short and had just closed her eyes again. Apart from a flash of lightning and the sand worm falling to the ground, she didn't touch anything.

All she knew was that her teammates had barely relaxed before they tensed up again. The enemy had clearly been defeated; they should have simply thanked them and given them a gift back at their clan.

Why are we still waiting here?

Could the other party be some important person?

Saifei frowned and patted Kyle on the shoulder.

"No, Sephiroth, we have encountered a more powerful enemy."

Kayla, the eldest woman among them, quietly retreated, not wanting to disturb the grassy creature in front of her after witnessing the power of the flying stick.

After all, in their view, the thing that emerged from the sandstorm didn't really look human.

Its body is brownish-yellow, with a fluffy and messy outline like tufts of cotton. Several pale blue tentacles extend from the sides of its body, crawling and wriggling powerfully on the sand.

It is extremely fast and unaffected by magic. It can move freely with the sandstorm and has no visible wounds on its body.

Can a single creature possess powerful attack capabilities, incredible speed, and unparalleled defensive abilities all at once?

Moreover, his magic was not even visible.

He's like a strange spider.

Sefir obediently retreated silently, also noticing Lynn's strange appearance.

"Is this... a spider or something, Sister Kyle?"

"I have no idea!"

To be fair, their team is not bad.

Sephir possesses the spell "Gemification." Inspired by the crystallization properties of the Iron Plague Virus, this powerful spell consumes a large amount of magic power and preparation time, and can directly solidify magical creatures into crystals. Combined with the Alchemy Academy's "Minor Disintegration" spell, if used properly, dealing with an ordinary, slow, level three apprentice-level creature is no problem.

The problem is that with the eight worms attacking simultaneously and the magical environment being suppressed, their coordinated chain of action had already been broken.

The thing that emerged from the tumbleweeds said nothing but "slow down," so it probably wasn't human.

And this powerful creature, which was not human, leisurely stopped in place and sized them up.

That's absolutely terrifying.

These are creatures that kill sand worms as easily as drinking water. Can they really handle them?

..

The situation reached a stalemate for a moment.

A ray of light seeped out from the gaps in the withered branches, and Lynn reached out to brush aside the roots that were blocking his face.

"They're all wizard apprentices, can't they recognize me? I'm a pure-blooded human," Lynn said.

Sefir covered her face with her little hands and chased after him, muttering to herself.

"You are human. No human is like this."

Wizards are the same. Wizards can be modified in many ways, but most of them still retain a human-like appearance. Although Sephir came from a large family, she had never seen a wizard who was just a ball of grass.

Lynn scratched his head

"I really can't do anything with you guys."

After saying this, Lynn untied the tumbleweed and prepared to show everyone his human appearance.

He never hesitated to show off his strength and good looks.

In every sense, Lynn is a handsome young man.

But as he took his first step, he saw patches of green and red on his feet, with a gel-like fluid flowing through them. The gel also had tiny blue-green specks of light.

Lynn suddenly realized that in his full-power output form, he was symbiotic with blue light algae, flying rods, tetra-algae, as well as lambs and sweat worms.

A bit

It doesn't look like a human being.

Lynn stopped awkwardly and said, "Sorry, just a moment. I'm actually a very well-hidden human."
