Synthesis Wizard

“The Death Knell Behemoth is out of the question.”

Ugo glanced at the Death Knell Behemoth, which had already taken down a high-level Stone Golem and an elite Double-Bladed Spider, but was also heavily injured. It wouldn’t be able to support him for a while.

“I can only rely on myself!”

The swarm of insects reassembled into Ugo’s form, his face a bit gloomy.

If possible, he really didn’t want to use his last trump card, as it would significantly shorten his lifespan.

But the current situation left him no room for hesitation.

If he didn’t kill Su Nan, he would die right now.

With a sound like tearing cloth, Ugo’s entire body suddenly cracked open, countless gray-white flesh spurting out violently, swelling and rapidly forming a grotesque giant insect.

The giant insect vaguely resembled a Death Knell Behemoth, but it was much larger and even more grotesque and ugly.

He didn’t resist merging bloodlines, but he was very disgusted with turning himself into this inhuman, ghostly appearance.

Ugo’s human form was already ugly, and this current form was even more repulsive.

“Spiritual power is still about half left.”

Su Nan’s eyes flickered as he recalled the Magic Emblem Core.

Seeing the metal spikes suddenly disappear, Ugo was taken aback, followed by a surge of joy.

As expected, such powerful abilities must consume a lot of spiritual power!

Su Nan’s action clearly meant that he had already exhausted his spiritual power and could no longer use Metal Storm.

“Hahaha, it’s my turn now!”

The giant insect emitted a sharp, piercing laugh from its mouth, flapping its wings and charging towards Su Nan like a cannonball.

Su Nan smiled wryly, he just wanted to keep some spiritual power in reserve, just in case.

After all, judging from the current situation, Ugo probably hadn’t divided his forces to attack Matu and Orsen.

Coupled with the strange behavior of Red Widow and Black Duke recently, the two sides might have reached a secret agreement, possibly to join forces against Lake City.

But Red Widow and Black Duke hadn’t appeared throughout the entire process, who knows what these two were up to. To be on the safe side, Su Nan felt it was necessary to keep some reserves.

He wasn’t short of other means to deal with Ugo anyway.

With a thought, countless wisps of gray mist emerged from the void, rapidly condensing into gray giant claw illusory figures, tearing through the void, whistling with piercing sounds as they fiercely attacked Ugo! ℞𝘢ℕÓ₿Ês

Ugo dodged repeatedly, trying to avoid them, but the gray claw illusory figures clung to him like a leech, chasing after him relentlessly, striking him one after another.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

A total of four gray claw illusory figures pierced through Ugo’s body, emitting a sound like acid splashing on flesh, making one’s scalp tingle. Ugo couldn’t help but scream in agony.

Microlight-grade magic items!

Ugo looked at Su Nan’s left hand in horror.

Just now, he clearly saw magical glow flash from the four rings on the other’s hand, indicating magic items.

In other words, those four gray claw illusory figures were the effect of those four magic rings!

This guy Su Nan actually possesses four identical Microlight-grade attack magic items!

Plus the defensive ones, how many Microlight-grade magic items does this guy have on him?

Did he plunder a Formal Wizard’s legacy or something?

But that’s not right, Formal Wizards haven’t appeared for many years, even if it’s a legacy, it would be from thousands of years ago, Microlight-grade magic items wouldn’t be able to remain intact for so long!

Ugo felt his mind swirling in confusion.

However, even more shocking was yet to come.

Su Nan swiped his hand, the four rings on his left hand instantly disappeared, followed by the appearance of four identical rings, and the magical glow lit up again.

Whoosh!

Four identical gray claw illusory figures appeared out of thin air.

Seeing this scene, Ugo felt his entire body go numb, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

The previous attack had already inflicted a severe wound on him, and now another one was coming, he wouldn’t die but would be seriously injured.

The key is that he doesn’t know if Su Nan has more Microlight-grade magic items.

If it happens again, he will surely die!

“Run!”

The excruciating pain of the gray claw illusory figures piercing through his body caused Ugo to cry out in pain, and the thought of fleeing surged into his mind.

He even forgot about the Death Knell Behemoth that he usually treasured, and he immediately dashed away towards the distance.

The terrifying strength Su Nan had displayed had completely crushed his fighting spirit.

“Want to run?”

Su Nan sneered, a high-level rune gem in his palm burst into a dazzling light, transforming into a gale that enveloped his entire body, turning him into a blue light stream rushing forward, ten times faster than Ugo.

Hearing the sound of wind rushing from behind, Ugo turned his head and was immediately terrified.

He immediately released a sonic wave backward, trying to block Su Nan, but the latter didn’t even look, and stubbornly endured the sonic wave as he rushed over, throwing out a high-level rune gem.

“What is this again?”

Ugo was already psychologically traumatized by Su Nan’s endless stream of tricks, fearing that this was another powerful weapon.

And his guess proved correct.

In mid-air, the gem turned into a bucket-thick thunderbolt and crashed down, directly knocking Ugo from the air onto the ground.

Su Nan’s offense continued, he threw out three more high-level rune gems, each turning into a thunderbolt and crashing down.

The deafening thunder echoed endlessly, reverberating far and wide in the cave.

Where Ugo was located was even shrouded in thick smoke.

Su Nan arrived above the smoke, waving his hand to roll up a gale and blow away the smoke, revealing a huge pit.

The pit was completely charred, the sand and soil were burnt into quartz-like crystals by the high temperature, emitting faint white smoke rising upwards.

Ugo was lying in the center of the pit, having reverted to his initial humanoid form, but his body was charred black, with barely a piece of intact skin left.

Su Nan slowly landed on the ground, shrugging at his miserable state.

“Out of respect for the Death Knell Behemoth, I was going to leave you with a whole body, but you had to run, there’s nothing I can do about you turning into this mess.”

Ugo stared fixedly at Su Nan with wide eyes, his eyes filled with resentment, fear, and despair, making strange groaning sounds from his mouth, as if trying to say something.

He wasn’t reconciled.@@novelbin@@

He wanted to live longer, until he advanced to become a Formal Wizard.

If he had known that Su Nan’s strength was so profound, he would never have coveted the Divine Remains, and he would have stayed as far away from him as possible!

But it was too late to regret it now.

Su Nan shook his head, without saying anything more, he flicked his finger, a ray of lightning pierced through Ugo’s brow, taking his life.

Confirming that Ugo was dead, Su Nan put away the four Disaster Rings that had depleted their energy, and took out four new ones to put on.

After returning to the underworld, he had continuously created a large number of Disaster Rings and Extreme Protection Rings, adding up to more than forty, just to crush his opponents with sufficient equipment during battles.

And the facts proved that this tactic was very effective.

Ugo’s last trump card simply couldn’t exert much effect against the large number of Disaster Rings.

More importantly, the Disaster Rings could be reused, unlike high-level rune gems, which were one-time consumable items.

By using more Disaster Rings in battle, he could save a lot of high-level rune gems.

Although Su Nan now had mines providing huge profits, he still wanted to save where he could, as there would be many places where money would be needed later.

Coming back to his senses, Su Nan went to Ugo’s side, took off the spatial ring on his hand, as well as a few Alchemy-grade magic items, and then returned to the original battlefield.

With Ugo’s death, the swarm of insects also fell into chaos, many insects no longer persisted in attacking Lake City, but scattered and fled.

The Death Knell Behemoth also seemed to have regained its autonomous will, trying to break out and escape.

Having finally found a creature with an ancient bloodline, Su Nan certainly wouldn’t let the Death Knell Behemoth escape, so he joined the siege without hesitation.

With Su Nan’s intervention, the Death Knell Behemoth quickly fell into a disadvantage.

This insect with an ancient bloodline was no less intelligent than humans, realizing it couldn’t win, it immediately lay down on the ground and put on a posture of surrender.

“It’s quite intelligent.”

Su Nan used a few Weakening Rays, and the Death Knell Behemoth quickly became lethargic, escorted back to Lake City by two elite Stone Golems.

Su Nan then returned to the other side of the lake.

The insects on the island had mostly fled, and the Golem Legion was cleaning up the remaining insects.

On the city wall, Carolena looked forward expectantly, and when she saw Su Nan return, she immediately let out a sigh of relief.

Although she couldn’t see what was happening on the other side of the lake, she could tell from the sounds that her master had definitely encountered a formidable foe.

Despite her confidence in her master’s strength, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of worry.

After all, the safety of Lake City now rested solely on Su Nan’s shoulders.

If Su Nan fell, just with less than a hundred Man-Faced Lion Warriors and a group of cannon fodder slaves, they wouldn’t be able to survive in the dangerous underworld at all.

Not to mention that Matu and Orsen wouldn’t let go of the empty Lake City.

“Master!”

Carolena opened the city gate to welcome him, but stopped when she got closer, looking at the Death Knell Behemoth with a bewildered expression.

What is this?

A Death Knell Behemoth?

But this size is too big!

“Master, what is this?” Carolena couldn’t help but curiously ask.

“A creature with an ancient bloodline.”

Su Nan casually told her the story of Ugo briefly.

When she heard that Kasham was actually controlled by a Wizard, Carolena was instantly taken aback.

She never expected that the insect plague that had caused Lake City, Matu, and Orsen’s three city-states to suffer headaches and fear for years, was actually orchestrated by a Wizard.

Looking at her master in front of her, Carolena couldn’t help but secretly admire him.

Wizards are truly terrifying creatures!

Each one can cause such a stir.

“But Master, what was the purpose of that Wizard manipulating the insect plague?” Carolena asked with a puzzled frown.

It was easy to see from today’s situation that Kasham actually had the strength to defeat the three city-states one by one and completely control this area, so why hadn’t he taken action for so many years, just sending out insect swarms to attack the three city-states every once in a while?

“Who knows?” Su Nan shook his head.

But he already had a guess in his heart.

Ugo was probably collecting souls or flesh for some purpose, so he used the three city-states as renewable resource points, harvesting them every once in a while.

As for what purpose, he would have to wait until he captured Kasham to find out.

Su Nan had checked Ugo’s ring, and besides some gold coins and gems, it was just some worthless junk.

He guessed that Ugo must have kept the truly valuable things in Kasham, where there might be Ugo’s laboratory.

“Send people to keep an eye on Matu and Orsen, report to me immediately if anything happens.”

Seeing that the insects on the battlefield had been mostly cleared, Su Nan put away the Golems and headed straight for Kasham.

Time was of the essence, he had to capture Kasham as soon as possible and obtain Ugo’s legacy.

Once he was done with this, he could start dealing with Matu and Orsen.

“Yes, Master.”

Carolena bowed slightly, watching Su Nan’s figure disappear into the darkness in the distance, before slowly straightening her body and squinting her eyes to look around.

At first, she hadn’t thought about Matu and Orsen.

But after knowing that there was actually someone controlling Kasham behind the scenes, and then thinking about today’s situation, she immediately understood that Matu and Orsen were most likely in some kind of cooperation with Kasham.

According to her understanding of Red Widow and Black Duke, these two guys were most likely hiding in the shadows right now, observing the battle.

Once Lake City and Kasham were both badly wounded, or either side wiped out the other but suffered heavy casualties, these two cunning and treacherous individuals would definitely jump out to reap the benefits.

It’s just that they underestimated their master’s strength.

Kasham’s attack didn’t even hurt their master, but the Wizard who controlled it behind the scenes died at the hands of their master.

Now the threat of the insect plague is completely eliminated, and Kasham will soon fall into the hands of Lake City.

With their hands free, their master will certainly not allow Matu and Orsen to continue to grow stronger.

“It’s your turn next.”

Carolena looked towards the direction of Matu and Orsen, a flicker of light in her eyes.

Red Widow and Black Duke had the same thought.

Seeing Ugo killed and the insect swarm collapsing, Red Widow and Black Duke’s hearts sank to the bottom.

“Useless! Useless!”

“Before, he was boasting that he would definitely defeat Su Nan, and in the end, he was so easily defeated!”

Black Duke gritted his teeth in anger.

He wasn’t surprised that Ugo would eventually be defeated by Su Nan, but he hadn’t expected it to be so decisive, without even causing much damage to Lake City’s strength.

It was obvious that Lake City, which had retained most of its strength, would be targeting next!

Red Widow’s expression was equally heavy, completely lacking her usual frivolity and wantonness.

Lake City, or rather Su Nan’s strength, was far beyond their expectations.

It can only be said that Kasham and Ugo’s defeat was not unjust.

However, this did not prevent her from despising and being angry at Ugo.

If this guy had been slightly more capable and let Lake City suffer more losses before his death, she would have had more room to maneuver.

But now, she had absolutely no confidence in withstanding Lake City’s attack.

Once Su Nan was free, it would be the end of Matu and Orsen.

What to do?

Red Widow glanced at Black Duke, who was still raging beside her, a strange light flashed in her crimson eyes.
