The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

Matthews quickly used his mental power to resonate with the locust's mental slave seal, trying to control its actions, but he was surprised to find that his orders did not receive any response.

What's worse is that the locust man's mind was in a mess, and Matthews couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

At this moment, the locusts pounced on him again as if they had gone mad, and launched a fierce attack like a beast.

Matthews had only time to cross his arms in defense before he was knocked away, and even the laboratory table was knocked over.

Matthews felt mixed emotions. He didn't expect that he would be beaten by the test subject he created. At the same time, he also deeply experienced the power of the mutant branded knight. He didn't expect that its power was even stronger than he imagined!

However, as a wizard apprentice, his strongest weapon is not physical strength. He immediately mobilized all his mental strength and released powerful mental pressure, trying to suppress and control the Locust Knight.

However, what shocked him was that the monster now seemed to be immune to mental pressure and was not affected much.

During this delay, Matthews was hit by another punch and flew backwards again.

"Damn it!"

Matthews was completely furious. He had originally wanted to flexibly restrain the locust man and continue the data test. But now, he wanted to fight head-on with the other party to see what potential this beast could unleash.

He did not hold back and directly faced the locust man's attack. However, he seemed to have underestimated the locust man's strength in his violent state. With his physique strengthened by the shadow secret medicine, he was no match for him and was repeatedly beaten back.

This was fortunately because the Locust Knight had gone mad, causing him to fight without any skills at all, and attacking entirely with his beast-like instinctive power.

Even so, the power of this monster was terrifyingly strong, and it was not inferior to the power of the bloodline apprentice after activating the bloodline power! Not only that, its speed was as fast as lightning, and it seemed to be faster than those non-speed-type bloodline apprentices.

Matthews had already sensed that the situation was not good, and he could not bear such a strong blow. If he continued, he would probably be torn to pieces by this monster.

He quickly used his ghost steps to flexibly dodge the locust man's attack. At the same time, he quickly took out his staff, and with the distance created by the hard punch, he finally unleashed the strongest attack of the death side - death stun.

However, the locust man did not seem to be affected at all, and its attack was still as fierce as before, without even the slightest pause.

This scene shocked Matthews, and he was full of doubts. He felt that this monster seemed to have no brain, otherwise how could it be completely unaffected by the death dizziness? This phenomenon was beyond his comprehension and made him unbelievable.

Just as Matthews was stunned by the shock, danger had quietly arrived. The locust's claws had already grabbed him fiercely, tearing off a large piece of flesh and blood.

Matthews couldn't help but let out a scream. He had been blown away countless times and couldn't hold on any longer. His body was already covered in blood. He thought he had strong willpower, but at this moment, he could no longer see any hope of survival.

Just when he thought he was about to die in the northwest, the monster suddenly twitched all over, fell limply to the ground, and stopped moving. Its life had finally come to an end.

Matthews also collapsed to the ground. He only had time to drink a healing potion before he fainted.

**********

When Matthews woke up again, it was two days later. He struggled to sit up and looked at the corpses of the locusts on the ground. He felt like he had survived a calamity.

At this moment, he still felt scared. If the monster had not fallen down by itself at the last moment, he would probably never have the chance to wake up again.

Afterwards, Matthews took another healing potion and stood up with difficulty. Although he was still very weak, he still had unfinished business to do.

He wanted to carefully examine the corpse of the locust man in order to understand the physical consumption after the combined power was activated. Only in this way could his experiment go further and prevent similar things from happening again.

However, when he dissected the locust man's body, he was shocked. He saw that there was not a drop of blood left in the body, as if it had been sucked dry by something. Not only that, the muscles also showed a strange dissolution state, which made people shudder.

What puzzled him most was that the locust man’s brain had turned into a mess, completely losing its original shape and structure.

The combined power stimulated the branding rune to a degree that was far more powerful than he had imagined, which made him feel timid.

Matthews found the video ball used in the experiment in the messy corner of the laboratory. Fortunately, it was not seriously damaged and could still play images normally.

He quickly compared and replayed the two experimental images, carefully observing every detail. Through comparison, he was surprised to find that after the combined power activated the rune imprint, the blood vessels were extended to the locust man's head.

However, this situation did not occur when using pure fighting spirit stimulation, and even the qi and blood meridians could not reach the neck.

This is undoubtedly the reason for the abnormality of the locust people's brain. To solve this problem, we must find a way to change the rune imprint or prevent the upward extension of the qi and blood vessels.

However, what bothered Matthews even more was another problem - the consumption of Qi and blood after the rune was activated was too horrible. In just ten minutes, a locust knight's blood could be drained and his muscles dissolved.

He really couldn't find a solution to this problem, as it was far beyond Matthews's understanding.

Faced with such a dilemma, Matthews began to think about what to do next. He was considering whether to go to Andre Wizard for advice.

However, this research is related to his future unique witchcraft, so he is reluctant to reveal the key easily. After all, no one wants others to know the details of his unique witchcraft.

However, Matthews' situation was indeed very special. He was only a wizard apprentice and did not have the ability to modify magic runes or create magic. Therefore, if he wanted to achieve his goal in a short period of time, he had to seek the help of a formal wizard.

Moreover, the research materials on close combat magic related to the side of death were originally given to him free of charge by Wizard Andre. Therefore, if his experiment made any progress and achieved any results, he should report it to the other party.

Perhaps, through communication with Wizard Andre, he could get some valuable inspiration and find ways to improve the experiment. At the same time, this was also a manifestation of respect and gratitude.

Just as Matthews was hesitating, his identity badge flashed. It was a message from teacher Fernando: Come to the pharmacy laboratory!
