Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm

Chapter 36 New tricks

"The preparations for the experiment will take about half a year. During this period, you only need to come here once a week to provide magic energy and then have your various physical indicators checked."

Shi Liang and the old butler escorted Li Yu and Zhan Kong all the way to the gate, and gave them instructions on what to pay attention to.

Li Yu replied:
"Understood. Besides..."

"Thank you for the concentration suit."

Shi Liang didn't care.
"That little money is completely insignificant compared to your status."

"I also hope that the things I bought when I was free can provide you with some help."

“Hehe…Hehe…”

Li Yu could only laugh, wishing that one day he would have enough money to buy a magic weapon worth hundreds of millions.

After the two left, Shi Liang and the old butler returned the same way. Shi Liang suddenly said:
"Grandpa Chen, you seem to be in a good mood!"

"Ok?"

The old butler was startled at first, then smiled and said:

"Of course. With the cooperation of little brother Li Yu, the patriarch's long-cherished wish should be easily realized. How can I not be happy?"

"No, Grandpa Chen, this shouldn't be what you're happy about."

Contrary to his usual behavior, Shi Liang looked directly at the old man who always maintained a decent smile with a determined look, a little serious.

"You should know that you can't deceive me at the moment."

Hearing this, the old butler's smile froze slightly, and then he asked seriously:

"Master, are you willing to trust me?"

"of course."

Shi Liang immediately replied that they had depended on each other for many years. If it weren't for the old butler, he, an ordinary person, would not be able to live so freely and give away magic weapons worth hundreds of millions.

If the old butler had harbored ill will towards him, how could he still be alive today?

"If the Patriarch is willing to trust me, then don't ask for the time being."

"When the time is right, I will tell the Patriarch everything without reservation."

"Is the time right?"

Shi Liang frowned and guessed intuitively,

"Is it related to Li Yu or that air commander who killed the army?"

The old butler did not show any abnormality. He smiled sincerely and said:
"Master, you don't need to test me. As long as I don't want you to, you won't be able to get anything from me."

"Please forgive my concealment. This is the order of the old patriarch."

"grandfather?"

In the words of the old housekeeper, Shi Liang's father was only the previous head of the family. There was only one person who was called the old head of the family, the founder of the Shi family - Shi Feng, Shi Liang's grandfather.

Since the old butler directly moved Shi Liang's grandfather out, it proved that he would not give in, so Shi Liang had to give up.

As soon as he entered the door, he went straight to the laboratory. He ignored the things that he was not supposed to know immediately and focused on doing the task at hand. He had a hunch that with Li Yu's cooperation, he could give a little shock to ordinary people in this cruel magical world!

……

Half a year later, in the Shi family’s underground laboratory.

"Thunderbolt·Dance!"

"boom!"

Purple lightning spread in the air, forming branches, like a thriving giant tree growing upside down. The top of the branches hit the special target, which had no resistance and quickly turned into a ball of ash. The remaining electric arc continued to spread, stretch, and jump in the wide pool below the target.

"Intermediate level three magic, direct attack strength 20,000."

Shi Liang, who was recording data on an instrument nearby, reported the latest results to Li Yu expressionlessly, and finally gave his own evaluation.

"With your current magical power, I'm afraid that ordinary mid-level spirit wizards will not be able to pose much threat to you." "Ah? Very strong?"

Due to the lack of an accurate reference, Li Yu only knew that he was getting stronger, but was not clear about his own level.

"It is indeed very strong, as strong as a monster."

Shi Liang was also amazed at the changes in the data.

"According to the experimental data I obtained at the academy, the level 3 rock barrier and light protection defense capabilities of earth and light mages with defensive spirit seeds are only around 15,000."

"There are less than 10,000 non-spiritual mages."

"That is to say, as long as you want, you can smash the defense of any mid-level wizard, and the remaining power of the attack can easily kill the wizard who can't react in time, unless the opponent has deployed defensive magic tools in advance."

"If it's a demon, maybe he can rely on his strong physical defense to resist, but a magician will definitely die."

"No wonder countries around the world are wary and fearful of the victims. Once such a powerful force gets out of control, it will indeed cause incalculable losses."

Although he admired her, Shi Liang looked at Li Yu expectantly and asked:
"You told me before that there was some new change in my magic. What was it?"

Hearing this, Li Yu smiled and said mysteriously:
"Can you call Butler Chen over? I need a magician to cooperate with my new ability."

"Mysterious and mysterious!"

Even so, Shi Liang's hands were not slow. He opened his mobile phone and skillfully found the number that was specially pinned to the top from the contacts in his address book, which numbered less than a handful, and dialed it.

"Grandpa Chen, I need your help with something here. Could you please come over?"

"Okay, Master!"

Ten minutes later, the old butler, as polite as ever, appeared in the experimental field.
"Master, what do you want me to do?"

After learning about the specific situation of the two people, the mature and steady old butler also showed interest and took the initiative to walk to a place a hundred meters away from Li Yu.

Before that, he even walked around to Li Yu and said with a smile:
"Brother Li Yu, please show some mercy! Otherwise, my old bones can't stand it."

After the two were ready, Shi Liang, who was acting as the referee, shouted "start". The moment the signal was given, the old butler's figure suddenly disappeared.

"Shadow Escape!"

Li Yu immediately realized the old butler's magic, and the latter's casting speed was astonishingly fast.

"Thunder Seal Crazy Strategy!"

Li Yu was able to use basic magic with ease. He did not release the magic aimlessly, nor did he try to avoid the shadows and be alert to his surroundings. Instead, he simply waved his hand and released the magic around his feet.

Crackling arcs of electricity danced and jumped on the ground for a long time. In a dark corner, a shadow was blocked by the arcs in front of it and could not move forward.

Shadow Escape has extremely strong concealment. As long as there is a shadow, the Shadow Mage can quickly appear at any place. However, Shadow Escape also has weaknesses. In the Shadow Escape state, even the slightest attack from external force will be instantly released.

Unfortunately, lightning has both attack and paralysis functions.

After releasing the Crazy Strategy, Li Yu did not slack off. Instead, he released two Crazy Strategy in a row while being alert on both sides. The scope of the densely packed minefield expanded instantly.

Not satisfied even so, Li Yu prepared to brew intermediate-level magic. The intermediate-level three star map took shape rapidly within one second. At this moment, two huge black spikes suddenly emerged in the air.

"Giant Shadow Nail!"

At some point, the old butler showed up and stared seriously at the minefield created by Li Yu.

He had a hunch that he must not let the other party release magic without restraint, even if he had no desire to attack, as it would seem like a waste of magic energy.

Therefore, in less than two seconds before and after Li Yu released the two thunder seals, the old butler made a decisive decision, canceled the shadow escape, and tried to release the intermediate level magic before Li Yu.

Two long spikes rushed towards the shadow behind Li Yu at a speed that was difficult to react to, trying to suppress it on the spot.

"Breakdance!"

Clusters of lightning branches appeared in an instant, and dense lightning illuminated the space of alternating light and darkness. The giant shadow nails melted quickly like spring snow under the strong light.

"boom!"
