The Synthesis Wizard

Chapter 11 Puppet Creation

Just when everyone was shocked by Sunan's thunderous methods, the person involved was still not satisfied.

"If the mental power were higher, the acid splash just now could kill the iron-eating beast."

Su Nan felt a little regretful, and stretched out his hand, and another shot of acid flew out, hitting an iron-eating beast like an arrow.

Sizzle!

Although the Iron Swallowing Beast dodged in time, it was still hit in the side, and most of its waist and abdomen were corroded in an instant, and its movements were inevitably affected.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Keyi stepped forward and cut the iron-swallowing beast into two pieces with one sword.

The two brothers cooperated tacitly and killed four iron-eating beasts in just a short time.

Everyone's morale was immediately boosted upon seeing this.

The iron-swallowing beast seemed to realize that something was wrong and gradually retreated.

Noticing this, Key quickly shouted: "Don't let them escape, stop them!"

The knights rushed towards the iron-swallowing beast.

Su Nan narrowed his eyes and cast a sleeping spell on the iron-swallowing beast at the back.

But what surprised him was that the iron-swallowing beast was not affected at all.

"The spell didn't work?"

Sunan was stunned for a while.

At this moment, an iron-swallowing beast suddenly jumped up, crashed into the rock wall as if falling into the water, and disappeared. The whole process was so smooth that no one had time to react.

The other iron-eating beasts followed suit and disappeared into the rock wall one after another.

Seeing the last iron-swallowing beast also crashing into the rock wall, the stunned Sunan finally came to his senses, and a dim light flashed in his eyes.

In an instant, the graceful figure of the iron-swallowing beast suddenly stopped, and it was frozen in mid-air, as if it was tightly grasped by an invisible giant hand, unable to touch the ground or walls at all.

No matter how hard it struggles, it can't break free from its invisible restraints.

"Kill it!" Sunan said in a deep voice.

Everyone who was staring blankly at the bizarre scene in front of them seemed to be waking up from a dream and took action one after another.

Click!

The iron-swallowing beast in mid-air was instantly shattered into pieces.

"Su Nan, you just..."

Keyi looked at Sunan, his expression full of surprise.

If the secondary dragon blood potion was still within the scope of his understanding, then the miraculous methods Sunan had just displayed were far beyond his understanding.

Su Nan knew what he wanted to ask, and explained calmly: "This is a spell."

Spell!

Everyone present silently chewed on this word, feeling that a whole new world was slowly unfolding before their eyes.

Su Nan didn't care about other people, and quickly came to an iron-swallowing beast that was cut into two parts, and squatted down to inspect it.

After a moment, a strange look appeared on his face.

"Is something wrong?"

Seeing Sunan's expression, Keyi asked quickly.

Su Nan shook his head, stood up and said, "I probably know where these iron-swallowing beasts came from."

When the sleeping spell failed to take effect just now, he actually felt something was wrong.

There are generally only two situations in which one can be immune to spells.

One is that the spell resistance is high enough, such as the dragon family.

Dragons are famous for their naturally high magic resistance. Adult dragons can be immune to all spells below the third level.

The other is that the life form of the creature happens to be immune to a certain spell.

Taking the sleeping spell as an example, elemental creatures, undead creatures, and golem creations are all immune to the sleeping spell.

The iron-swallowing beast obviously could only be the latter.

"I originally thought it was a creature in the form of metal, but I didn't expect it to be a puppet creation."

During the inspection just now, Su Nan found enchantment runes in the iron-swallowing beast's body fragments.

It is impossible for a naturally born being to have enchanted runes in its body.

The only explanation is that the iron-eating beast was artificially created! And the only ones who can make puppets are wizards (apprentices)!

"There is probably a legacy left by the wizard deep in this mine!"

Sunan felt ecstatic in her heart.

He originally planned to go out and search for the whereabouts of the wizard's inheritance after being promoted to a second-class wizard apprentice. Unexpectedly, there was one near Black Rock City.

This is undoubtedly a big surprise!

Under Sunan's explanation, Keyi and others showed extremely shocked expressions.

No one would have thought that these iron-eating beasts, with fighting prowess comparable to that of knights and with the strange ability to burrow into rock walls, were actually puppets created by wizards!

Miraculous potions, terrifying spells, and powerful puppet creations, these things that are unimaginable to ordinary people are all made by wizards!

What kind of group is this?

The deeper they understand, the more they can feel the mystery and power of the wizard.

Legend has it that thousands of years ago, wizards once ruled the entire continent and created an unprecedented prosperous age.

In the past, they only thought it was a myth, but now it seems that it is very likely that it really happened!

Everyone had different thoughts, and the tunnel fell into silence for a while.

Sunan didn't care. After talking to Keyi, he sat on the ground and meditated to restore his mental strength.

A lot of spells were cast in the battle just now, and the mental energy was almost exhausted.

Considering that there is still a fierce battle ahead, it would be safer to wait until you have recovered your mental strength before continuing to explore.

About two hours later, Sunan ended her meditation.

The procession continued.

Fear comes from the unknown.

After knowing the origin of the Iron Swallowing Beast, everyone's fear of this monster suddenly decreased a lot.

Especially after killing five iron-eating beasts in the battle just now, the morale of the team reached its peak.

However, what is confusing is that on the way, the iron-swallowing beast seemed to disappear and never appeared again from beginning to end.

"Where did those monsters go?" Qiao Dun smacked his mouth in displeasure.

Ke Yi also frowned.

If the remaining iron-swallowing beasts were hiding like this, they really wouldn't be able to do anything against each other.

Trying to find a group of iron-eating beasts that can drill through walls in dimly lit underground tunnels extending in all directions is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

Sunan was thoughtful.

High-level puppets have autonomous consciousness and artificial intelligence that are no less than human beings, but the iron-swallowing beast is obviously not among them.

At first glance, they look like low-level puppets, and they usually act according to a specific program.

For example, when encountering an enemy that cannot be dealt with, priority should be given to ensuring one's own safety.

This also explains why successive lords have been unable to destroy the iron-swallowing beast.

Faced with a group of monsters who 'bully the weak and fear the strong' and have excellent hide-and-seek abilities, even the great knight is helpless.

But just because the previous lords had nothing to do, it didn't mean that Sunan had nothing to do.

He closed his eyes and concentrated on sensing the energy particles in the air.

If nothing else, these iron-swallowing beasts should be the guardians of the unknown wizard's heritage deep in the mining area.

As long as they find the location of the wizard's inheritance, the iron-swallowing beast will definitely show up to stop them, and then they can completely annihilate them.

And where the wizard's inheritance is, the concentration of energy particles must be far higher than other places.

As long as you go to a place with a high concentration of energy particles, you will be able to find the target location with a high probability.

Not long after, Sunan opened his eyes, pointed to the tunnel entrance on the right and said, "Go that way."

Key was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately and took the lead to the right without hesitation.

Everyone came to their senses and quickly followed.

Along the way, the team stopped and stopped.

Whenever he encounters a fork in the road, Sunan has to stop and feel for a while before deciding on the direction of travel.

After walking like this for who knows how long, everyone suddenly stopped.

This time it wasn't that I encountered a monster or found a fork in the road, but that the road was gone.

To be precise, a dark door appeared in the middle of the tunnel.

The closed door sealed the entire tunnel.
