Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 517: 169. Huh?! Player?!

Noland Lee, accompanied by Mabel, arrived at the Manor Gate.

After declining the offer for a ride back, Noland set off on the road to Sector 6.

Noland’s next actions can be described as smooth and unhindered.

Ignoring Comini who was following him, he activated the “Illusionary Body Technique,” transforming into a white skull. In an invisible flight posture, he flew into the underground passage of Sector 6.

From the vertical shaft to the vicinity of the Black City, Noland summoned Denise Green upon entering the warehouse storing Alchemy Weaponry. He had her pack the weaponry and take them all away.

Throughout the process, Noland did not conceal his actions due to Comini’s presence.

He openly used the “Bone Spirit Flight Technique,” summoned Denise Green, and used the “Death Two Finger” and “Death Incarnate” in battle in front of Comini.

These extraordinary things may seem astonishing to ordinary wizards, but to Comini, a Seventh-Ring combat wizard, they were only slightly surprising at most.

The Celestial Extraordinary Attribute “Magic Proficient” allows one to see the principle of a magic spell at a glance and learn the spell on the spot. Even if it’s a high-level spell, it can be learned without error.

With one sentence – “I’ve mastered ‘Magic Proficient’” – Noland could explain why he could learn various death spells.

Comini may have learned this from Mabel. She found the answer without Noland’s explanation.

Thus, Comini remained silent, watching as Denise Green left with the Alchemy briefcase filled with Alchemy Weaponry.

With Comini being quiet and acting aloof, Noland did not see the need to initiate conversation.

He brazenly entered the machinery factory area on underground layers 60 to 80 and blatantly attacked the illegal alchemists and wizards entrenched there.

Demonic Alchemist? A Death Lightning strike broke him into five parts, followed by five more Death Lightning strikes to shatter the divided body, sending him on his way.

Steam Alchemist? Able to escape through pipes? Absorb steam for injury recovery? Noland bombarded him with Death Lightning, destroying the surrounding pipeline facilities, causing widespread AoE damage and cutting off all his escape routes, killing him on the spot.

Gold Bone Alchemist? With multiple sets of backup alloy skeletons? Noland targeted their Alchemy Stones, focusing firepower and applying hundreds of black lightning strikes on a single point, forcibly shattering their Alchemy Stones. The Gold Bone Alchemist’s Alchemy Stone shattered on the spot, and Noland gained quite a bit of knowledge concerning alloy skeletons, which could be used on Mechanos.

Illegal wizards from the Ancient Tomb branch, executed. These Ancient Tomb wizards escaped the sight of Elemental Judgement through feigned death and had appeared in Nikcat’s memory. Noland executed them without hesitation.

Illegal wizards from the Undead branch, executed. These wizards from the Death Herald Guild had researched numerous spells for enslaving aberration corpses in the Black City, an act done behind Elemental Judgement’s back, and they were situated in the unclaimed corridor area of Sector 6. Even with the organization’s base in the southern Tatis Empire, Noland executed them without hesitation.

After three days of intense hunting, Noland cleared all illegal personnel from the machinery factory area of Sector 6.

The Energy Value Reward was deposited instantly.

Soul fragments were collected with the Large Absorbing Spirit Crystal and placed in the Blood Haven to be absorbed into his body.

[Soul Strength] 5117

[Energy Points] 272111/53 (40+13)

The Soul Strength consumed by using “Death Incarnate” had been restored, and the Energy Points remained high at 272,000.

Feeling invigorated, Noland sighed contentedly.

He displayed exhaustion and vulnerability on the surface after the high-intensity continuous battle and took a rest in an empty warehouse in the factory area.

After setting up Alchemy Traps for enemy prevention, Noland leaned against the wall, closed his eyes, and entered a resting state.

On the surface, there seemed to be only Noland here, and he appropriately showed his exhaustion and lethargy.

If someone wanted to plot against him, now would be the best time to strike.

Very faint air fluctuations came from the darkness, as if something was brewing an attack, ready to launch.

The next second, the air fluctuations stopped abruptly. A magic treasure sword pierced through the sneaky figure in the dark. Grey magic fog appeared around the figure, forming a magic cage.

A smile appeared at the corner of Noland’s mouth.

He opened his eyes and looked at Comini, who had revealed her form, and laughed:

“See, I told you someone would try to harm me. And the assassin coming to kill me would definitely not be openly connected to Gilbert Winchester. Let’s see what came to assassinate me… ///

Noland squinted his eyes as he gazed at the caged object, and let out a puzzled sigh:

“Huh? What is this? Semi-transparent…black…constantly changing like a gas, with no solid form, no flesh, and not a spirit entity. It looks like its body is made purely of energy… ///

Noland stood up and went to the side of the magic cage for a closer look.

He felt a terrifying dark aura and a very familiar soul energy fluctuation.

Noland raised an eyebrow, and without the help of Deconstruction, he was able to discern the assassin’s internal energy composition:

“A portion of shadow energy and a portion of soul energy. This thing is made up of these two energies. Do you know what it is, Comini?”
