Wizards: Starting with the Refined Meditation Technique Guide

Chapter 287 I Am Your Natural Enemy

Chapter 287 I Am Your Natural Enemy

As a demonized creature that wizards had studied for so many years, the Abyss Blood Demon was naturally not so easily killed by Leo.

The moment Leo chopped his head into bloody fragments, a shower of crimson light converged, and the Abyss Blood Demon returned to its original form.

The Abyss Blood Demon glared at Leo and said, "I thought you were just dessert. I never imagined you'd be even more dangerous than the main course, Anthony."

"But it seems my luck is on my side today. First it was Anthony, and now it's you. The Tower of Dawn has lost two talented young wizards in a row. I can already foresee how painful it will be for these formal wizards."

The Blood Demon of the Abyss revealed a sinister smile and extended his right hand.

The gushing blood rushed toward Leo.

Having learned from his previous experience dealing with Anthony, the Abyss Blood Demon charged at Leo with a large amount of blood.

Leo remained unmoved upon witnessing this scene.

Leo's pupils transformed into a pair of triangular shapes.

The pair of triangular pupils began to move.

In an instant, the flowing blood congealed.

The Blood Demon of the Abyss suddenly changed color.

"What kind of ability is this...?"

Leo's triangular pupils moved again.

The congealed blood dissipated directly.

The bloodline ability of the Heart Demon Dragon is the magic that allows it to manipulate the bodies of other creatures.

This kind of magic is actually based on the properties of "flesh and blood".

Therefore, Leo, who possesses the bloodline ability of the Heart Demon Dragon and is also skilled in combination spells, is undoubtedly the natural enemy of the Abyss Blood Demon before him.

The Abyss Blood Demon realized something was wrong and tried to escape.

However, Leo looked at the Abyss Blood Demon.

First the legs, then the arms, and then... the head.

The Abyss Blood Demon's body began to solidify, rendering it unable to move.

Leo transformed the Hand of Magic into a longsword.

Once again, he chopped the Abyss Blood Demon's head into bloody pulp.

This time, the Abyss Blood Demon's head did not regenerate; it was completely dead.

After doing all this, Leo turned around and said, "Wizard Anthony, are you alright?"

"I'm fine..."

After Leo finished speaking, streaks of blood suddenly appeared on various parts of Anthony's shattered body on the ground. These streaks connected the pieces of Anthony's body, bringing them back together into a human shape.

After regaining his human form, Anthony quickly got up.

Leo noticed that although Anthony's wizard robes were riddled with holes and covered in blood, his wounds had already scabbed over.

Anthony asked curiously, "Wizard Leo, how did you know I wasn't dead? I thought my feigned death was quite successful."

Leo said, "It's very simple. Wizard Anthony, your spiritual energy is still at its current level. If a wizard dies, his spiritual energy will rapidly decline."

Anthony remarked with admiration, "Wizard Leo, your knowledge is truly extensive."

Leo asked, "Wizard Anthony, was my killing of the Abyss Blood Demon also within your expectations?"

"No, not at all." Anthony shook his head and said, "My initial plan was only to destroy the exoskeleton magic absorption equipment in the hands of the Abyss Blood Demon. If the Abyss Blood Demon takes this thing and it falls into the hands of other wizards, then I will suffer a great loss."

Leo asked, "So, my initial escape plan was also part of your calculations?"

Anthony said, "It was a kind of counter-strategy. Although my initial goal was to escape, that had to be done after destroying the exoskeleton magic absorption equipment. So, I pretended that our plan had been seen through by the Abyssal Blood Demon."

Leo continued, "Then you guided the Abyss Blood Demon step by step to discover the influence of flesh and blood magic on its bloodline abilities, was also to bring the Abyss Blood Demon closer to you?"

"Sort of. Only when the Abyss Blood Demon gets close can I destroy the exoskeleton magic absorption equipment."

Leo shook his head slightly and said, "Wizard Anthony, this battle has been under your control from the very beginning."

Anthony smiled without saying a word.

Leo asked, "Wizard Anthony, have you considered that if I hadn't understood your plan, hadn't run away, and had instead fought the Abyss Blood Demon to the death, I might have died?"

Anthony said, "That might be possible, but you're very fast. If you realize you're outmatched, it's easy for you to escape. At least you don't have to play dead like I did."

Then, Anthony looked at the lower half of the Abyss Blood Demon's corpse and said, "Wizard Leo, speaking of which, your physical abilities are truly astounding. In a direct confrontation, killing me would be a very simple matter for you..."

Leo smiled and said, "It's just that my combination spells happen to counter him. Besides, I'm not confident I can break through the nascent permanent defensive field of Wizard Anthony."

"It's just a prototype, not a true permanent defensive force field. There are still several ways to destroy it."

Leo shook his head inwardly. Although it was indeed only in its rudimentary form, even in its rudimentary form, this defense was enough to make most first-class wizard apprentices sigh in despair.

Including Leo.

Even with the addition of basic physical enhancement spells from melee wizards, Leo's physical abilities would make it difficult to break through this rudimentary form.

To break this prototype, ordinary spells are not enough; Leo can only use combination spells or the Dark Archmage.

It can only be said that Anthony truly deserves to be regarded as a first-class wizard apprentice on par with Nova Wizard. With the rudimentary form of a permanent defensive force field already in place, Anthony's strength is among the top tier of first-class wizard apprentices.

Leo thought to himself.

Then, Leo said, "Wizard Anthony, do you know why you've been targeted by Wizard Kindley?"

Anthony wasn't from Provence, and even professional wizards used the blood pressure-lowering tea he developed. In that respect, Anthony should have had few enemies among other wizards.

Anthony smiled wryly and said, "It's related to my research direction. My research direction means that after I become a formal wizard, it may conflict with the research direction of Wizard Kindley. Actually, I've encountered similar situations several times before, but most of the time it was just a close call. This is the first time I've encountered such a dangerous enemy as the Abyss Blood Demon."

Leo thought for a moment and said, "Wizard Anthony, although personally I also dislike Wizard Kindley, as your friend, I still suggest you try not to tell anyone about this."

"Of course, I will keep this a secret until I become a full-fledged wizard."

Anthony said.

However, his subtext also revealed his true thoughts.

Before becoming a formal wizard, he could be timid and submissive, but after becoming a formal wizard, he will definitely strike hard.

The attack by the Abyss Blood Demon meant that Anthony could easily be killed if he wasn't careful. This angered even the mild-mannered Anthony.
