Chapter 172 The sudden increase in the curse of magic plants (two weeks later)

  Chapter 172 The curse of the sudden increase in magic plants (two weeks later)

  Two weeks later.

 "Get out of the way, get out of the way quickly, and send this person to the second floor quickly."

 "Be careful, the magic plant on this person is out of control!"

 A super mandrake vine completely went crazy on a second-class wizard apprentice lying on the hospital bed. It frantically tried to attack everything around it, and even broke through its restraints at one point and launched an attack on everything it could touch.

 The thick magic vine, like the sharpest iron whip, split several surrounding hospital beds in half. Several patients on the hospital beds would have rolled off their beds immediately if they had not reacted in time.

 At this moment, they have also been cut in half by the degraded magic vines.

 But at this time, the second-class wizard apprentice helper who was pushing the hospital bed looked at the out-of-control Super Mandrake vine with a troubled expression.

   "This new type of magic vine will be much more troublesome than the Diphlo root vine when it gets out of control." He had a frightened expression on his face. "What should I do?"

 But at this moment, Locke walked down the spiral stone staircase and pointed at the out-of-control Mandela vine.

 Under the comfort of his own magic power, the viciously deteriorated Super Mandela vine was finally under control and lay on the body of the second-class wizard apprentice.

                                                              ifier | 』

“It’s just a matter of relying on powerful magic power and a deep understanding of magic to find a magic item’s weakness in spell operation and forcefully suppress it. 』

 After Locke became a first-class wizard apprentice, that is, two and a half years after that incident happened, he finally understood what the first-class wizard apprentice of the Order of the Bones he met on the wizard ship that day was doing at that time.

 The second-class wizard apprentice assistant saw Locke coming down from above, and quickly saluted Locke: "Thank you, Senior Augustine."

 "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to send this patient to your office."

 Locke said indifferently: "How many patients is this in the past two weeks?"

The second-class wizard apprentice helper was stunned for a moment, and then said respectfully: "Senior Augustine, this is the seventeenth patient who has been cursed by a magic plant in the past two weeks." Some people said uneasily: "Those dark wizards are really scary."

 "The curses they made have almost no effect other than causing pain to others."

 "More and more people have been cursed recently. When will these days end."

 The frightened people around them all reacted after hearing this.

Locke nodded slightly. "Send people to my office, it's almost enough."

 "A little more won't make much sense."

 The second-class wizard apprentice assistant didn't understand what Locke meant when he said "almost enough." He glanced at Locke in confusion, thinking it was some instruction from Locke.

 After he was sure that Locke had no further instructions, he hurriedly pushed the hospital bed through the special passage towards the second floor.

 Locke re-entered the spiral staircase and returned to the second floor. At the same time, he thought: "Sure enough, as I thought before, that dark wizard is quite easily irritated by me." 』

"In the past two weeks, the other party used seventeen different curses in order to fully demonstrate the depth of her magic plant curse to me, from the Paralysis Curse, to the Blood Curse, to the Thousand Edges Curse..."

"The cursed magic plants are all different. Some wizard apprentices even have multiple magic plants cursed. Severin showed me her magic plant curse in a comprehensive way, just to make me bow my head and admit that I couldn't solve her magic plant curse, which made me feel inferior to myself. 』

    But... this is also what I want her to do. 』

 Locke’s eyes became serious. The so-called battle is not just about defeating the opponent face to face. The invisible battle between the potion master and the curse master is also a kind of battle.

 What he has to do is to predict the opponent's prediction, and then use the opponent's curse to provide himself with experimental data, and then create a super defensive magic plant.

 In the past two weeks, the mutated emerald iris lichen in my plantation has been continuously improved. After carefully modifying it using differential magic and concentration monocle lenses, every day, the daughter bodies of the Jade Iris Lichen are changing rapidly, resulting in corresponding changes in magic resistance.

 As of today, magic resistance similar to broad-spectrum resistance to curses has been born.

  In other words, my work has reached the end of cultivation.

  Today's cursed magic plant is the last one I need.

 Locke met Carrie Ackerman with a sneer on her face in the corridor.

At this time, Carrie Ackerman was wearing a red wizard robe that had been altered to look like a long skirt. When she saw Locke, she said with a somewhat theatrical mentality: "Augustine Breeder, you have been really busy recently. I heard that there are new patients in your office every day." Pretending to be kind, he said: "If it doesn't work out, I think we should still seek external help. You must not support it on your own."

Locke raised his eyebrows, looked at her, and asked, "Oh? Then I will ask your Angron Studio for external help, what do you think?"

"Senior Angron, I have said before that if I need help, I can ask you for help. Can't it not be counted?"

 The gloating smile on Carrie Ackerman's face suddenly froze. She saw the joke and got involved in it.

  Angron had warned her not to involve the curse of the magic plant.

 The investment required for that thing is really too great.

 That kind of curse must go deep into the field of breeding and potion science at the same time. Angron has recently focused most of his energy on spiritual strengthening potions, so he does not want to touch the magic plant curse.

  Last time, he spent a lot of favors in his network in order to solve the blood curse of Hai Shan. Now he has to use Angron Studio to repay those favors.

 Carrie Ackerman suddenly stumbled a little, "That..."

"Of course you can, but Senior Angron and we have been a little busy recently... so... so..."

Locke smiled and walked away without taking it seriously.

  He is quite busy.

 The final results of the White Wizard Association's breeder competition will not be available until half a year later. After all, this kind of competition takes a long time.

  After all, one entry will be produced in the preliminaries and the finals, and each entry will have to compete with breeders from the entire southeastern region, so good preparation is required. Therefore, the interval between the two competitions is more than half a year.

 But even so, the breeder competition also requires the breeder to start preparing one year, or even two years before the competition, at least prepare a general direction.

 Otherwise, if you really enter the competition, you will be a little careless about your head and feet, and you will be too late.

 As for the combat department of Lilith's hut, the registration deadline for the custom-made magic plant competition announced by the breeders is approaching.

  There is only the last half month of registration left.

 This is essentially another form of centralized procurement bidding competition, but the progress will be faster, and the results will usually be decided within a few months.

  I must completely complete my fifth work within half a month.

 This work is also the first time that I have made it all by myself. It's just that the emerald iris lichen as the basis is a magic plant synthesized from a Rubik's Cube.
