Synthesis Wizard

“Good job!”

Seeing the situation from afar, the Black Duke couldn’t help but shout in praise.

“That guy did have a hidden trick up his sleeve!”

The Red Widow also smiled, but then her brow furrowed in confusion.

“Why have I never seen the Death Knell Beetle use this ability before?”

If the Death Knell Beetles had used this kind of self-destructing attack during previous infestations, their city-state wouldn’t have survived until now.

The Black Duke was also a bit confused, but quickly dismissed it, sneering and saying, “Whatever, now the situation is back to being evenly matched between Silent Lake City and Kasham. If they continue like this, they’ll definitely end up mutually destroying each other. When that happens, it’ll be our turn to clean up the mess.”

The Red Widow thought about it and agreed. The Death Knell Beetles’ newfound ability was undoubtedly good news for them.

The one who should be worried was the wizard from Silent Lake City.

In just over a dozen breaths, more than half of the Stone Magic Puppets were destroyed.

One of the Elite Stone Magic Puppets was even completely pulverized by a Death Knell Beetle, sending chills down everyone’s spines.

But when she turned her head, Carolina found that Su Nan’s expression remained calm, as if the current situation was completely within his expectations.

“Buzz!”

A dull, thunderous roar suddenly erupted.

It was the Elite Double-Bladed Spider in mid-air, suddenly opening its mouth and letting out a deafening sound. A visible distortion shot out from its mouth, striking the swarm of beetles and detonating with a bang.

In a flash, over twenty Death Knell Beetles were torn apart without even having time to react!

Carolina was stunned.

The Red Widow and the Black Duke in the shadows were also dumbfounded.

This puppet could also use sonic attacks like the Death Knell Beetles?

Before they could recover from their shock, they saw the Elite Double-Bladed Spider charge into the swarm of Death Knell Beetles, wreaking havoc. Every swing of its sharp limbs took the life of a Death Knell Beetle. It would occasionally spit out a burst of distorted sonic waves, creating a void in the dense swarm of beetles.

But the Death Knell Beetles’ self-destructing attacks could only cause the Elite Double-Bladed Spider to pause slightly, its body completely unharmed.

Su Nan nodded inwardly.

Under the dual enhancements of the “Black Steel” enchantment and the “Toughness Technique,” the Elite Double-Bladed Spider’s body strength had already reached an astonishing level.

The Death Knell Beetles’ self-destructing attacks, while powerful, couldn’t harm the Elite Double-Bladed Spider.

Just then, a roar came from across the lake.

Hearing the sound, a faint smile appeared on Su Nan’s lips.

“I found you.”

The moment he finished speaking, Su Nan’s entire body floated up and flew towards the source of the sound, leaving Carolina standing there in a state of confusion. ŗâŊꝊBÈʂ

As he passed through the battlefield, some Death Knell Beetles foolishly tried to attack Su Nan, only to be wiped out by the thunder or flames he casually unleashed.

With alternating flashes of thunder and flames, Su Nan forcefully carved a path through the swarm, reaching the other side of the lake in an instant.

Pausing, Su Nan hovered in the air, looking down. He saw the Stealthy Dragon, appearing and disappearing in the chaotic swarm, ruthlessly chasing after a figure in a grey robe.

Su Nan’s eyebrows raised as his gaze fell on the person in the grey robe.

“It’s you!”

“Ugo!”

The person in the grey robe, heavily guarded by the swarm of beetles, was none other than Ugo, whom Su Nan had met at the Starfire Sect’s headquarters.

In fact, Su Nan had already guessed.

Someone capable of establishing a force like Kasham must be a Third-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice.

A Third-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice capable of controlling a large number of insects was extremely rare, so when Su Nan guessed that there was a Third-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice behind Kasham, he wondered if it could be Ugo of the Eternal Society.

As it turned out, his guess was correct.

Seeing Su Nan, Ugo’s face darkened, his eyes filled with killing intent.

He had accidentally learned that Silent Lake City had a new lord. After investigating and learning that it was Su Nan, he thought of using this opportunity to kill Su Nan and retrieve the Divine Bone. To achieve this, he was willing to give up the hunting opportunity he had been waiting for for years, teaming up with Matu and Orson, all to ensure that he could achieve a decisive victory.

But not only was the power Silent Lake City showed far beyond his expectations, but those two bastards, the Red Widow and the Black Duke, had also stood him up.

“Damn undead, you can’t trust any of them!”

Ugo cursed under his breath. He dodged the sharp claws of the Stealthy Dragon that suddenly appeared behind him, feeling a bit of a headache.

He didn’t know how Su Nan had cultivated this magical companion, but it possessed both invisibility and etherealization abilities. If he hadn’t been quick enough, he would have been ambushed. However, this also exposed his location.

“Forget it, since I’m exposed, I’ll just go ahead and do it.”

“Kill this guy, get the Divine Bone, and my Death Knell Behemoth can break through again!”

Ugo glared at Su Nan, his killing intent growing even more intense.

He suddenly brought his index and middle fingers together, aiming them at his left hand and slashing down forcefully. A muffled sound of “poof” could be heard, and his entire arm was severed at the shoulder, falling to the ground.

A bizarre scene unfolded. The severed arm on the ground seemed to have a life of its own as it twisted and turned, its surface becoming covered in numerous bumps. It swelled rapidly like a balloon being inflated, its color quickly turning black.

In just a second or two, a giant beast appeared in Su Nan’s field of vision. It shone with an obsidian-like luster, resembling a Death Knell Beetle that had been magnified several times.

“Magical Companion?”

“No, it doesn’t seem like a Magical Companion. Is it a combination of the beast and a fusion technique?”

Just by looking at it, this giant beetle gave Su Nan a feeling of immense danger, even more dangerous than the Golden Magic Puppet he had encountered before!

“A Three-Ring-level beast?”

Su Nan muttered softly.

As if hearing Su Nan’s murmur, Ugo sneered.

“My Death Knell Behemoth possesses ancient bloodlines. Don’t compare it to ordinary Three-Ring beasts.”

“Today you’ll witness its power!”

Beasts with ancient bloodlines typically possess unique abilities, making them stronger than their peers at the same level.

Ugo thought that by saying this, Su Nan would be shocked, his face filled with terror. But instead, the other’s eyes lit up, as if he was somewhat delighted.

What’s wrong with this guy?

“Ancient beast, heh, what a coincidence, I was just looking for a descendant of an ancient beast.”

A smile appeared on Su Nan’s lips, and the way he looked at Ugo instantly softened.

This guy really came at the right time. Knowing that Su Nan was searching for a descendant of an ancient beast, he directly sent one to his doorstep.

Just for this, he would leave a whole corpse for him later.

Noticing Su Nan’s gaze, Ugo couldn’t figure out what he was thinking, but he could still sense the disdain in his eyes. His face grew even gloomier. He stopped talking and ordered the Death Knell Behemoth to attack.

“Woo-woo!”

The Death Knell Behemoth raised its head and opened its mouth, letting out a dull, thunderous roar.

A visible sonic wave spread out from it in all directions!

Ten meters away, the void distorted. The Stealthy Dragon, about to launch another attack, suddenly materialized and staggered back several steps, shaking its head in pain.

A trace of surprise flashed in Su Nan’s eyes.

These beasts with ancient bloodlines really had a trick up their sleeves. The sonic waves they emitted actually carried a hint of soul power, making it impossible for even the Stealthy Dragon’s etherealization to completely nullify the damage.

Seeing that the Stealthy Dragon was no match for the Death Knell Behemoth, Su Nan decisively released all his puppets.@@novelbin@@

In an instant, three Higher Stone Magic Puppets and four Elite Double-Bladed Puppets appeared out of thin air. They immediately activated their levitation technique and charged toward the Death Knell Behemoth with menacing intent.

“Woo!”

Violent sonic waves swept through the surroundings.

The insects present seemed to have undergone some kind of modification and were completely immune to sonic damage.

However, the puppets could not do the same. The sonic waves containing soul power could already cause them harm, but the puppets’ resistance to them was higher than the Stealthy Dragon’s.

Seizing the opportunity while the Higher Stone Magic Puppets were momentarily paralyzed by the sonic attack, the Death Knell Behemoth charged, knocking a Higher Stone Magic Puppet away. It then slammed its massive pincers onto another Higher Stone Magic Puppet, tearing a huge gash in its body.

But at the same time, the Higher Stone Magic Puppet’s giant fist landed on the Death Knell Behemoth.

Crackle!

Lightning flashed, and the Death Knell Behemoth was paralyzed for a moment.

Seizing this opportunity, the four Elite Double-Bladed Puppets, having broken free from the paralysis, quickly rushed to the Death Knell Behemoth, lifting their sharp limbs and slashing down!

“Woo!”

Blood splattered, and the Death Knell Behemoth let out a mournful roar filled with pain.

This beast’s abilities were bizarre, but its defense was not its strong point. Both the Higher Stone Magic Puppets and the Elite Double-Bladed Spiders could inflict damage upon it.

Seeing this scene, a look of astonishment flashed in Ugo’s eyes.

These seven puppets were all Second-Ring level!

“Damn it, how does this guy have so many powerful puppets?”

Second-Ring puppets were not like the low-level Stone Magic Puppets.

In the current state of the Starlit Continent, it would be extremely difficult to gather the resources needed to create Second-Ring puppets.

Su Nan having one Second-Ring puppet was acceptable, but seven? No, there was another one on the battlefield over there. That made it a total of eight!

Where did this guy get so many resources to create eight Second-Ring puppets?

Ugo was filled with suspicion and uncertainty.

Seeing the Death Knell Behemoth surrounded by the opponent’s magical companions and puppets, unable to escape, Ugo gritted his teeth. His body suddenly burst into countless insects, rushing towards Su Nan.

He originally thought that using the Death Knell Behemoth would easily deal with Su Nan, but now that the situation had changed, he could only take action himself to eliminate Su Nan.

But in the next moment, Ugo saw Su Nan’s figure blur, instantly splitting into eight figures, dispersing in all directions.

Mirror Shadow Technique!

“Wait, he didn’t chant any incantations. This is Spellcasting without Incantation!”

Ugo was shocked.

This guy had mastered Super Magic Techniques while still a Sorcerer Apprentice!

To be able to master Super Magic Techniques at the Sorcerer Apprentice stage was a testament to exceptional talent.

He had been a Third-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice for over fifty years and still couldn’t master Super Magic Techniques. Now, encountering a Sorcerer Apprentice who was younger and more talented than him, a surge of intense jealousy welled up in his heart.

“Buzz!”

The eight Su Nans simultaneously opened their mouths and spat out a visible sonic wave, attacking Ugo’s transformed insect swarm from all directions.

In the Mirror Shadow Technique state, the actions of the body and the clones were identical, even the effects of the spells they cast. It was impossible to distinguish them with the naked eye.

Ugo didn’t bother dodging at all. Every insect simultaneously let out a piercing scream, releasing a surge of sonic waves that shattered the real and illusory sonic waves, then surged towards Su Nan like a tidal wave.

Sonic wave abilities identical to those of the Death Knell Beetles.

Su Nan immediately understood. It seemed Ugo had fused with the Death Knell Behemoth’s bloodline.

The two clashed fiercely in the air above the cave.

Spells and distorted sonic waves alternately appeared, then annihilated each other.

After tentatively enduring several sonic attacks and confirming that he couldn’t instantly break through the defense of his Radiant Guard Ring, Su Nan directly abandoned dodging and defense, decisively activating his Magic Emblem Core.

Whoosh!

Streams of silver metallic liquid flowed out of every pore on Su Nan’s body, floating in the air and rapidly condensing into countless sharp, glimmering spikes. They paused for a moment, then surged out like a violent storm.

Hiss hiss hiss!

Ugo’s transformed insect swarm could easily dodge spells by dispersing, but they couldn’t avoid the metallic storm that covered a similarly wide range.

Under Su Nan’s precise control, each spike hit an insect with pinpoint accuracy, never missing.

With just one burst, more than a third of the insect swarm was wiped out.

“What kind of ability is that?!”

Ugo was terrified.

These insects of his may have appeared weak and fragile, but in reality, their body strength and spell resistance were extremely high. Even Second-Ring spells couldn’t inflict much damage on them.

He had used this ability to kill more than one Third-Rank Sorcerer Apprentice.

But these metallic spikes could easily wipe out his insects. What kind of ability was this?

Seeing the metallic storm turn around and charge towards him again, Ugo didn’t have time to think. He controlled the insect swarm to disperse and avoid it. But the metallic spikes were like clinging vines, relentlessly pursuing and annihilating one insect after another.

With no choice, Ugo had to gather the insects together, reforming them into their original shape. Then he separated them again, restoring the insect swarm to its original size.

“It can split?”

Su Nan raised an eyebrow in surprise, but quickly recovered.

This splitting ability certainly wasn’t without a cost, it probably consumed a lot of spiritual power.

If that was the case, he would just keep fighting until the opponent’s spiritual power ran out!

“Woo-woo!”

The insect swarm desperately avoided the metallic storm while also launching sonic attacks at Su Nan. But he was like a rock in the waves, unmoved as the sonic waves swept over him, his body remained steady and unharmed.

Ugo watched in horror, his heart sinking further and further.

He had figured out that Su Nan must have powerful Radiant-level magical items, and not just one, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to block his attacks so easily.

“Magical Companions, puppets, magical items, and these strange metallic spikes. Where does this guy get all these cards?”

Ugo was both shocked and furious.

He thought this was going to be an easy victory, but from the beginning of the battle, there had been a series of unexpected events, putting him at a disadvantage at every turn.

Su Nan’s power was far beyond his expectations!

Now, forget about killing Su Nan and getting the Divine Bone. He was lucky if he could even save his own life!

Sorry, I was late
