Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems

Chapter 619: Infusing Fate into an Arrow!

On the arena, Locke, having strengthened all the magical plants on his body with Porcelain Moon Growth, wearing a pair of Tyrant Hummingbird Bromeliads, shuttled through the siege of magical artifacts.At the same time, the Tyrant Fern Spear in abyssal state shot toward Antoine like a meteor. Antoine clicked his tongue and could only shoot out the pebble in his left hand to collide with the Tyrant Fern Spear.

The two forces met in mid-air, producing a tremendous roar. All around were spell lightnings triggered by the impact.

Antoine frowned. He had already used up the pebble in his hand, so naturally Locke had broken his formation. Next, Locke just needed to ignore him and release magical attacks from a distance.

And the Tyrant Fern Spear, under the illumination of the porcelain moon, received comprehensive enhancement. Moreover, it seemed Locke's manipulation of it was also strengthened, making it more flexible.

Not only that, the moonlight of Locke's Porcelain Moon Growth covered at least a tenth of the Cloud Arena. Every wizard's magical plants within it experienced slight growth.

Many botany wizards fighting black wizards who rushed out from the demon realm passage all gratefully glanced at the Porcelain Moon Growth in the sky that amplified their magical plants' combat power.

Witch Camilla from Magic Pivot City summoned thirty man-eating flower jungles to deal with five black wizards from Twin Demon Realm. At the same time, she turned to look at Locke, somewhat astonished.

"Amplifying all nearby botany wizards? Is it casual? Or deliberate? Such great boldness..."

A wizard's magic reflected their thinking principles and a certain aesthetic.

And Locke's such magnanimous magic allowed Witch Camilla to sense a certain spiritual will from it.

The five black wizards before Witch Camilla were caught in a bitter battle.

Witch Camilla had her hands behind her back. In the Spell Combat Tournament's final circle, she was a First Circle wizard from a second-rate wizard organization, but before these black wizards, she was a powerful lecture mage from Magic Pivot City.

Two official black wizards had their arms bitten by man-eating flowers and directly torn off.

Witch Camilla looked at them coldly. "With just this much ability, you dare attack the Cloud Arena where Golden Crown Mountain and various major wizard organizations gather. Simply laughable. Black wizards."

The five black wizards looked at Camilla with hatred, as if looking at their enemy.

Twin Demon Realm's world power appeared behind them. On each of their faces, a large mouth suddenly grew in a different position. That mouth stuck out its tongue, licking at some force in the air.

The next moment, Witch Camilla's expression suddenly changed, because the witch porcelain that was originally in her spiritual light suddenly disappeared.

A sixth black wizard emerged from the shadows between the man-eating flower jungles. This Twin Demon Realm black wizard had a mouth growing in his left palm, holding Witch Camilla's natal witch porcelain.

"Hahahaha, so this is Magic Pivot City's witch porcelain? I stole it!"

Without her natal witch porcelain, Witch Camilla screamed, feeling all magical plants trying to cause magical backlash against her.

Those five Twin Demon Realm black wizards looked at Witch Camilla viciously and said, "We're participating in demon realm war because we're unconvinced! Why, we're all wizards, but your talent is higher than ours, and our talent must be lower than yours?"

"Why are you geniuses enjoying teaching positions, while we have to work in black factories?"

Witch Camilla's expression changed slightly. "You're all First Circle crystallization stage wizards. What black factory work? That's impossible."

The six black wizards laughed obscenely.

"First Circle crystallization stage? Oh, we stole this magic power."

"You don't think we'd honestly study and research, do you? The world is like a rice field. We are harvesters. You produce, we steal. Why need painstaking research?"

"The price we pay is just selling our souls and bodies to Twin Demon Realm. Although we'll certainly die miserably and won't live long, and after death our souls will be eaten by the demon realm, but... we can write our own legend."

"Twin Demon Realm gathers all black wizards worldwide willing to steal for Twin Demon Realm, not just the wizard world. In the wizard world's various colonial lands in the endless void, those bottom-tier wizards in black factories, wizards with poor talent—they're all our member targets."

The sixth black wizard said, "When I joined Twin Demon Realm, I was already a First Circle crystallization stage wizard. However, I had no talent to become a Second Circle wizard. So I dedicated my soul and body to Twin Demon Realm."

"Now I possess Twin Demon Realm's [Thief Magic] system. Lifespan can be stolen, magical artifacts can be stolen, all things can be stolen. Even your emotions can be stolen!"

This black wizard raised his left hand. A large mouth opened in the palm center, triggering magic siphoning, aimed at Witch Camilla.

Witch Camilla smelled a certain fragrance. Her spirit began losing control. At the same time, before the opponent's magic siphoning, her thoughts completely couldn't maintain themselves and began collapsing.

Countless thoughts flew chaotically.

Then the sixth wizard looked at Camilla's state, then looked up at the sky where Twin Demon Realm's Third Circle wizards were entangled with Golden Crown Mountain's Third Circle wizards, then locked his gaze on Fire Saint Wizard.

Fire Saint Wizard, while fighting, nodded slightly. Immediately, this wizard held a small altar in his hands. Then this altar shot a dark light toward Witch Camilla's body.

Soon, Witch Camilla's magic power began losing control. At the same time, her magic pressure automatically mimicked a death state. Plus at this moment, while smelling the specially made incense that made her irritable with chaotic thoughts, her body actually mistakenly believed she was in a death state.

When a First Circle wizard died, it was when a demigod fell, when heaven and earth mourned, when the whale fell.

Large amounts of magical tides gathered toward Witch Camilla's body.

She clearly hadn't died, yet under the black wizards' ritual, was forcibly opened into Resonance State.

The sixth black wizard raised the small altar treasure, aimed at this witch. Immediately, the altar released faint azure magical runes.

Waves of magical power gathered toward that altar. Those resonances were all being absorbed.

In the sky, Fire Saint Wizard was extremely powerful. He consecutively stole two Wizard Fischers' heartbeats, breathing, soul pulses...

In almost an instant, both were forcibly entered into a living dead state.

Fire Saint Wizard walked as if strolling leisurely. With each step, he stole something. He wore a faint smile, but when looking at Witch Yekaterina, a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

Even among Third Circle Thrones, there were differences.

He and Yekaterina were opponents of many years. He knew both were developing toward Fourth Circle wizards. Moreover... he wasn't confident he could steal Witch Yekaterina's things in an instant without being severely injured by her.

Witch Yekaterina said, "You first had Twin Demon Realm wizards steal others' identities, infiltrate the venue, confuse the demon hunters' vision... Then you also stole your vanguard wizards' sense of presence this time, so that demon hunters always sensed you but couldn't determine your positions."

"As long as enough of you came here, you could use demon realm war to open planar portals and start planar war."

Fire Saint Wizard said, "All correct."

Although demon realm war environment was an objective environment, it was certainly more favorable to the actively initiating side.

After all, they had the ability to choose where and when to launch war.

The Five Wars of Cloud Marsh Wetland were essentially worlds that had the confidence they wouldn't be located by Cloud Marsh Wetland wizards, or for some reason couldn't be destroyed, launching harassment-like wars against the wizard world.

Twin Demon Realm was a black wizard world.

Cloud Marsh Wetland wasn't without black wizard alliances. Rather, Cloud Marsh Wetland's black wizard alliance possessed an entire Twin Demon Realm hiding in Cloud Lake.

Twin Demon Realm was located in Cloud Lake, a reflection of the wizard world, another possibility.

No one knew how Twin Demon Realm originally formed. In any case, it was a world that wanted to be like the wizard world in everything, wanted to learn from the wizard world in everything, a world parasitizing the wizard world and hiding in Cloud Lake.

That world originally had nothing, existing by copying and stealing the wizard world's concepts.

Later, Twin Demon Realm united with some black wizards, and gradually demon realm wars appeared.

Twin Demon Realm had gradually become a symbol among black wizards, possessing pivotal status in the black wizard community.

The Fire Saint Wizard before them with a pair of black wings on his chest was a famous figure in Twin Demon Realm. He once emptied a medium-to-large wizard academy organization overnight, causing that wizard academy organization to dissolve—a terrifying existence.

Witch Yekaterina looked at the wizards' resonances appearing one after another below the Cloud Arena. "I see. Only in resonance state can a wizard's memories and partial characteristics be plundered. This is what you call stealing talent."

"Although saying it this way is somewhat far-fetched, if you insist on saying so, you can."

Fire Saint Wizard's expression didn't change. He continued fighting two Third Circle wizards. At the same time, he smiled at Witch Yekaterina, "Witch Yekaterina, haven't you noticed? I stole your time. Your current perception of time... is wrong..."

"I don't have confidence to deal with you, so the best method is to steal time to delay you. Oh right, our boss also came this time."

He pointed at the sky.

Below the eclipse, a black-purple passage of Twin Demon Realm opened. Something seemed to be coming out, which restrained the Fourth Circle Truth Wizard currently stationed at Golden Crown Mountain.

Witch Yekaterina's expression didn't change. She didn't seem surprised at all by Twin Demon Realm's Fourth Circle wizard's arrival.

Fire Saint Wizard looked at Witch Yekaterina in surprise. "I shouldn't have stolen your hearing. But why do you seem unmoved?"

At this moment at Arena No. 1.

Locke was still fighting Antoine. Both had reached a white-hot stage.

Locke relied on Porcelain Moon Growth's amplification to continue fighting him.

At this time, that Wizard Cole had already jumped onto Arena No. 1 and looked viciously at Locke and Antoine.

"Stop fighting. Watch me steal your resonances. I'll steal everything from you!"

The next moment, Locke condensed Peach Bow Thorn Arrow. "Get lost."

An arrow containing Sacred Dragon's spirituality shot out. That arrow transformed into a sun in mid-air, and from the sun emerged a white dragon.

At the same time, Antoine's eighteen magical artifacts also directly shot toward him. "Don't get in the way."

So under the pincer attack of two attacks, this black wizard directly died.

Antoine looked at Locke seriously. "Only you—I must immediately defeat you. Otherwise your existence denies my twenty-eight years of life!"

"I don't need competitive opponents. I don't need fellow travelers. I don't need competition."

"Locke, anyway the match is suspended, and there's no restriction against using permanent defensive fields. Let's just fight with full strength!"

Locke didn't refuse at all. His magic pressure also gradually rose in the confrontation with Antoine. Both gradually pushed their magic power to the limit, approaching the Second Circle stage.

Both were about to enter soul decline period.

Spell lightnings appeared around Antoine. "This is my permanent defensive field. No one in the Council of Elders has completed its construction in five hundred years—Absolute Reflection!"

A permanent defensive field appeared.

An incredibly terrifying powerful invisible force field appeared around them.

In the sky above, Wizard Fischer couldn't help but look back at Antoine. Incomprehension appeared in his eyes. He didn't understand why, when victory or defeat was undecided and the match was already suspended, Antoine would use his final trump card.

Antoine, what exactly are you trying to do!

Fire Saint Wizard's voice appeared beside Wizard Fischer's ear. "Oh my, during battle with me, you old man actually dare to be distracted? Look what I've stolen—your... Grand Magic!"

Wizard Fischer's expression changed dramatically. Fire Saint Wizard appearing beside him held his Grand Magic Elastic Storm in his hands.

Wizard Fischer's expression changed greatly.

Because this magic of his was a Grand Magic that had already been forged four times, completely forged. Moreover, it belonged to a type of Grand Magic with particularly large attack range among Grand Magics.

It was the aesthetic crystallization of Kineticist School magic. Just in its initial state, it could use Kineticist School magical knowledge to create a kind of elastic air with certain elastic potential energy.

It could add a new physical rule to a small world, developing more possibilities.

In that world, the world would become somewhat better as if adding shock-absorbing spray. Hurricanes and tsunamis would weaken.

The original Elastic Storm was to create pulsing storms and earthquake echoes that would continuously bounce, as well as atmospheric slingshots.

But currently his Grand Magic had become an even more terrifying thing. It was an existence that could make the world bungee jump.

Once the opponent used his Grand Magic on Golden Crown Mountain...

At this moment, Wizard Fischer's expression changed greatly. He felt extremely regretful. How could he have been so foolish as to let the opponent steal his Grand Magic due to distraction?

Fire Saint Wizard smiled, holding this Elastic Storm in his hand. Under everyone's wary gazes, he seemed to be considering whether to release it.

For a wizard of his level, this completely forged Grand Magic could only be released once.

After one use, it could only be returned.

But as long as it was released once...

All of Golden Crown Mountain would be like a drawn bow. No, rather the entire world would become a large bow.

This was terrifying magic that could instantly destroy a small-scale plane.

Grand Magic forged to completion by wizards basically all had the power to instantly cause a small-scale plane's physical rules to be completely destroyed.

Fire Saint Wizard looked at Witch Yekaterina and asked, "How about it? Should I release it? Old friend?"

Witch Yekaterina's expression didn't change at all.

This made Fire Saint Wizard feel a sense of foreboding in his heart.

...

On Arena No. 1, the match was actually still being livestreamed. Many wizards watching the competition were directly speechless.

Because Locke and Antoine were actually still fighting.

Moreover, both had directly used permanent defensive fields, completely fighting with full force.

Locke shot a Great Sun Arrow toward the opponent. The moment his arrow entered the opponent's permanent defensive field, it was actually neutralized by an opposite force, then that Great Sun Arrow was reflected back.

The moment that arrow shot toward Locke, it suddenly transformed into a white dragon and was automatically controlled by Locke again.

Locke held Peach Bow Thorn Arrow and Tyrant Fern Spear. At this moment, Myst's Power also enveloped him.

"Good permanent defensive field. It seems capable of absolutely reflecting all attack magic. Moreover, it can accelerate them, reflecting them back in the form of increased speed."

Antoine smiled. "But I didn't expect I still can't do anything to you. Your arrows have Sacred Dragon's spiritual blessing and will automatically protect you."

"So even if I reflect it back, it's completely useless."

Wizard Antoine suddenly charged toward Locke. Just then, a black wizard suddenly rushed before him, trying to press an altar toward him.

That black wizard said delightedly, "I'm about to succeed."

The next moment, the Great Sun Arrow Locke shot toward Antoine instantly killed him too, but was again bounced back by Antoine's Absolute Reflection.

Locke and Antoine both seemed not to have seen that wizard just now and completely ignored him.

Locke used Myst's Power to strike at the permanent defensive field against Antoine charging toward him.

Both permanent defensive fields collided.

Their collision formed tremendous conflict.

Antoine obviously hadn't expected someone could tie with him using a permanent defensive field.

Two unconvinced Twin Demon Realm First Circle crystallization stage black wizards again charged toward Locke and Antoine. But as soon as they approached, they discovered that the terrifying force field formed by the collision of Myst's Power and Absolute Reflection defensive field transformed into a storm, directly enveloping them.

As Locke stubbornly directly pushed force field strength against the opponent's Absolute Reflection, the force field circulated back and forth between them. Each reflection would increase the speed reflected back by Antoine, but Locke had two great Myst's Powers.

However much he accelerated, Locke used Nature Force Field to push back that much.

Using Life Heavy Armor to create infinite magic power for himself.

The two at the center of the two force fields' confrontation were fine, but the black wizards trying to ambush them showed terror on their faces.

"Is this the battle aftermath of First Circle stage wizards?"

"No!"

'Bang~'

Both Locke and Antoine reached their limits. Then the two force fields directly exploded. Myst's Power attacked in all directions.

That was Myst's Power specifically designed to restrain defensive fields!

So the two black wizards who had just entered First Circle crystallization stage and tried to ambush them directly died.

The five black wizards around them trying to approach them were directly blown away, then coughed up blood.

Both Antoine and Locke were simultaneously blown away.

Behind Locke appeared the phantom of a golden two-headed dragon, seemingly roaring. The next moment, this phantom was crushed by a terrifying dark dragon. That dragon had... three heads.

At the same time, Locke's pupils became vertical pupils and he laughed wildly. "I see. I finally understand what you are."

Wizard Antoine climbed up from the ground. The magic robe on his body was already tattered. "Fighting you really costs money."

Wizard Antoine wiped his mouth, looking at the evil dragon full of destructive power behind Locke. "Instead, I'm fighting you, and I don't know what you are anymore."

"Locke, keep fighting with me. I want to prove to myself that I don't need opponents!"

Locke snapped his fingers and used Summon Great Demon King. The Great Demon King crawled out from the Fallen Blood Gate.

That Great Demon King was majestic.

At the same time, the Great Demon King looked at Locke. His eyes no longer held awe but fear. "Great Dragon of Annihilation."

"Why have you summoned me?"

Summoning Great Demon King had the special effect of absorbing negative energy particle fields from the opponent during summoning to understand enemy information.

Antoine froze. "Archaeologist? Locke, you can indeed be my opponent. But you'd better not know what I am, otherwise you'll only despair."

At this moment, the Great Demon King pointed at Antoine and said, "His soul was once a Third Circle wizard..."

Locke looked at Antoine in surprise.

Antoine curved his lips and smiled. "I'm not a Third Circle wizard. That was my previous life. I don't have memories of the past. I'm a completely new person. But..."

"I possess the massive magic power inherited from my previous life."

Locke asked, "Can this be done?"

Wizard Antoine said, "Then what do you think a Third Circle wizard is? As long as a wizard possesses Crown Magic... they will be a veritable true god, a great wizard truly referred to by various demon gods of the void planes."

"Even if the body dies, the soul dies, the mind dies, magic shatters, Third Circle wizards can still start over from the beginning."

"I said, knowing the truth, you'd feel despair. You're fighting a Third Circle wizard starting over from the beginning, Locke..." Wizard Antoine looked at Locke in surprise, because at this moment Locke's eyes were full of battle desire.

Antoine suddenly changed from arrogance and instead smiled. "You're really interesting. You're not also some Third Circle undying old monster starting over, are you?"

"Did we know each other before?"

"Forget it. New life, old matters need not be revisited." Antoine said, "Locke, you've indeed already forced me into a desperate situation."

"Using Absolute Reflection requires terrifyingly consuming magical power, so no one in the Council of Elders could learn it in five hundred years. This itself was the defensive magic I created back then..."

Antoine looked at Locke with complex eyes. "Locke, you made me experience this world's reality again. So... this world isn't just my playground... You made me truly experience the life named Antoine Fischer."

"In that case." Antoine raised his right hand, all magic pressure fully infused into one magic. "I'll use this final magic to decide victory or defeat with you. See whether I can return to my original state, or be dragged down from the altar by you to truly start over from the beginning."

"I infuse my fate into this arrow."
