Journey to the Wizarding World

Chapter 377 The Power of the Artifact

Among the dark clouds in the sky, a ray of sunlight suddenly projected down.

Just when Enzo was about to give up chasing Justin, the drizzle finally ended. In Enzo's light blue eyes, deep in the forest in the distance, a ghost-like figure was moving quickly.

"Justin!"

Enzo's eyes flashed, and he raised his head slightly, looking at the sky that had cleared up. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and said in a low voice: "The rain really stopped in time, so you can't blame me."

The next moment, the wings of shadow appeared behind him.

The jet-black wings fluttered in vain, Enzo flew into the sky like a falcon, and then flew deep into the forest, catching up with Justin in less than a quarter of an hour.

"So fast?" Below, Justin was shocked.

Immediately afterwards, Enzo stood in the air relying on the wings of shadow, clenched the Soul Bone Demonic Staff slightly in his hand, chanted a spell in a low voice, and summoned a dark fire meteor in the sky.

Rumble!

The burning black meteorite roared and hit the ground, shaking the entire forest. The ground trembled slightly after the impact. Justin, who was sneaking quickly, was blocked by the dark meteorite, and he suddenly stopped with a cold face.

"It seems that you are determined to stop me?" Justin turned around, with a cold glint in his eyes.

"Hmph! Do you think things can end so easily?"

A sneer appeared on Enzo's face, and he said in a deep voice, "When I was a third-level apprentice, I almost died in your hands. Since we met here today, there must be an end between us!"

"Do you really think you can defeat me?"

Justin's expression became ferocious and he said sternly: "Kid, don't think that you can do whatever you want with a powerful magic weapon. The battle has just begun!"

After saying that, Justin waved his broken shoulder, causing blood to flow to the ground.

The scene that happened just now appeared again. The dark witch formation was formed under the outline of blood. The huge body of the Cyclops slowly crawled out from it, holding a corpse-eating monster in its huge palm.

"Hey! Delicious food..."

After the fierce battle, the Cyclops' body was covered with hideous scars. Even its abdomen was torn and half of its intestines were exposed, but it still looked alive and kicking.

"Is it over yet?" Enzo couldn't help but frown slightly when he saw the corpse-eating monster in the Cyclops' hand.

At this time, there was a tremor in the distance, and the lava monster's broad body followed up with heavy steps. The battle between the three monsters just now ended with the Cyclops winning.

Crunch!

With his powerful physique, the Cyclops defeated the lava giant and the ghoul, and caught the dying ghoul, opening his bloody mouth and biting it alive.

"Well, the undead creature you summoned is no match for the Cyclops!"

On the opposite side, Justin seemed a little proud and said with a chuckle, "It's not too late to leave now. The hatred between us has not reached the level of a life-and-death fight. It will do no good to anyone if we continue to fight."

Enzo's face was expressionless, and a black long sword appeared in his hand.

"This sword...is also a magic weapon?" Looking at the black sword in Enzo's hand, Justin's pupils suddenly shrank, and a solemn expression appeared on his face.

Not long ago, the shadow assassin used this sword to cut off Justin's arm.

Artifact, Sword of Night!

The Divine Sword, which represents the authority of the goddess of night, was obtained by Enzo in the Dark Labyrinth. However, because he was only a third-level apprentice at that time, he could not use the power of the artifact at all, so he could only treat the Sword of Night as an ordinary sharp weapon.

arms.

However, now, Enzo has been promoted to the second level wizard.

Even if it is the power of an artifact, he is qualified to use it. According to the information recorded in ancient books, the Sword of Night is the only artifact of the Night Goddess, and has the ability to enslave the bodies of dead creatures.

"Let's use this Cyclops to test the power of the Sword of Night."

In place, the luster in Enzo's eyes flashed. In the first battle of being promoted to the second-level wizard, he had already used Justin to test the two first-level witchcraft he had just mastered, and now he planned to try the Sword of Night again.

strength.

"First, I need to awaken the power of the Sword of Night!"

Enzo took a deep breath, locked eyes with the Cyclops, and injected the magic power in his body into the Sword of Night. The artifact was like a whirlpool, devouring Enzo's energy crazily.

"As expected of a divine weapon, it is indeed not a power that mortals can control!"

"If I had not been promoted to the second-level wizard, I am afraid that in just this moment, all the magic power in my body would have been swallowed up by the Sword of Night, and I would even be in danger of death."

Feeling the power of the Sword of Night being gradually awakened, the luster in Enzo's eyes kept flashing.

"Okay, let's begin..."

Not far away, the Cyclops was chewing the ghoul, making a creepy sound. As a creature summoned by Justin through a contract, he was very satisfied with the ghoul as a sacrifice.

Enzo turned into a shadow and rushed straight towards the Cyclops.

"Get out of the way, idiot!" Behind him, Justin's pupils shrank, as if he felt the threat of the Sword of Night. He immediately reminded the Cyclops loudly, but it had no effect.

The Cyclops, who was enjoying the food, stood very focused.

"Wings of Shadow!"

Wings of shadow appeared behind Enzo, and then flew towards the head of the Cyclops. At this time, the Cyclops finally realized the danger, and among the four arms on his body, the two arms behind the shoulders simultaneously grabbed Enzo.

.

"Hey! I caught you..."

Two huge rough palms grabbed the figure in mid-air. There was drool on the corner of the Cyclops's mouth, and he let out a silly laugh, but then he discovered that the figure caught in the palms had turned into a mass of shadow and disappeared.

brush!

The next moment, Enzo appeared behind the Cyclops.

He held the Sword of Night in his hand and stabbed the Cyclops' neck silently. The extremely sharp Sword of Night easily pierced the Cyclops's tough skin.

"Uh...it hurts..."

It wasn't until intense pain came that a ferocious expression appeared on the Cyclops's face. He ignored the zombie in his mouth and waved his four arms crazily, trying to catch Enzo behind his spine.

But the Cyclops' movements were extremely clumsy in Enzo's eyes.

He drew out the Sword of Night, jumped nimbly to the Cyclops' head, and then thrust the sword into the giant's head, crushing its brains to pieces as the Cyclops wails in pain.

"Damn it!!" Behind him, Justin's face changed, as if his mind was struck by lightning.

Even the Cyclops, who was famous for his physical strength, would still die immediately after his brain was destroyed, and Justin, who signed a soul contract with him, was unsurprisingly struck back by the contract.

At the same time, the sword of night inserted into the giant's head glowed with a dark luster.

On the sword of the Night Sword, the incantation representing the authority of the Night Goddess emits a unique light, as if the power of a curse is intertwined with the Cyclops's corpse.

Phew!

Enzo drew the Sword of Night at the next moment.

The huge body of the Cyclops slowly fell to the ground, and its four thick arms hung down feebly. The chewed and broken corpse of the corpse in the bloody mouth also turned into fuzzy flesh and blood and flowed on the ground.

Opposite him, Justin's face was as gloomy as water.

On the same spot, Enzo raised the Sword of Night in his hand and communicated with the Sword of Night through his mental power. After a burst of dark light shone, the body of the Cyclops not far away slowly stood up.

"What!?"

Justin's pupils shrank and he frowned: "How could this happen? Is it using some kind of witchcraft ability? Death awakening? Or corpse resurrected?"

In the wizarding world, there are many kinds of witchcraft that can resurrect corpses.

For example, the death awakening that Enzo mastered during his apprenticeship is a technique that can awaken corpses to fight. This type of technique is unified into the necromancy system.

However, there are certain limitations to resurrecting corpses through necromancy.

For example, a corpse driven by death awakening, no matter what it was like in life, has extremely limited combat effectiveness after becoming a ghoul, and it needs Enzo's command at all times to carry out simple battles.

But Justin didn't know that.

The Cyclops corpse enslaved by Enzo did not use necromancy witchcraft, but relied on the ability of the Sword of Night to drive the Cyclops to become the puppet of the artifact through effects similar to curses.

The puppets enslaved by the Sword of Night can retain at least 80% of their original combat effectiveness.

Even if some creatures possess magical abilities, they can still retain certain magical abilities and part of their combat consciousness even after becoming artifact puppets.

"Go, Cyclops!"

Enzo pointed the sword of night forward in his hand and ordered the Cyclops to attack. Although he used the artifact to enslave the Cyclops, he actually did not pay too much attention to it and only used the Cyclops as cannon fodder.

Just as he had thought before, using the Sword of Night to kill the Cyclops was mainly to test the effectiveness of the artifact.

Enzo’s real target is Justin!

Bang bang bang!

The Cyclops, enslaved by the Sword of Night, started running with his huge feet. When he rushed not far from Justin, he waved his four thick arms at the same time and slapped towards the ground.

"snort!"

Justin snorted coldly and waved the wand in his hand gently. The invisible force was like a thread, wrapping around one of the Cyclops' arms. Then with a thought in his mind, the huge body of the Cyclops was also thrown out.

boom!

The Cyclops hit the ground, forming a deep pit. Justin's face was expressionless. The blood on the broken arm had stopped, but his face looked a little pale. In addition to excessive blood loss, the main reason was excessive consumption of magic power.

"You don't really plan to rely on this kind of thing to deal with me, do you?"

Justin glanced at the Cyclops not far away from the corner of his eye, and then asked coldly, as a creature he had contracted with, Justin knew the Cyclops very well. Although the monster was physically powerful, it had no magical ability.

.

It is simply impossible to rely on the Cyclops to fight against the second-level wizard!

"of course not."

Enzo shrugged and said softly: "The Cyclops is only a first-level life form. If it can restrain you to a certain extent, it is already the limit. As for killing it, it is simply impossible."

"It's better for me to play with you!"

After saying that, Enzo waved the wand in his hand again, and the shadows under his feet spread around, forming a field in a moment, almost covering Justin.

Opposite him, Justin frowned slightly and stepped back quickly.

In the previous battle, Justin already knew that Enzo was a shadow wizard, so fighting him in the shadow realm was obviously a very disadvantageous thing.

"The magic power has been almost consumed. It seems that we need to fight quickly!"

Justin retreated to an area that could not be covered by the shadow realm, with a thoughtful expression on his face. Then he raised his palm and gently touched the silver mask on his face, and there was a sound of water flowing behind him.

Not long ago, there was a light rain here, so there was a lot of water on the ground.

Relying on the ability of the magic weapon, Justin created two streams of water that surged into the sky, and then began to intertwine with each other, sweeping forward as if forming a tornado.

"The Art of Phantom Crow!"

On the spot, Enzo chanted in a low voice, and his body turned into countless illusory crows, flying around in all directions. Then, under Justin's surprised eyes, he activated the ability of the phantom crows.

In an instant, the surroundings fell into darkness.

"Is this...an illusion?" Justin's heart froze, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face, as if he had thought of something, and his expression suddenly became extremely solemn.

"Could it be...that this is the advanced meditation method Huan Ya Qian Ling?"

As a fallen wizard from [Phantom of Crows], Justin had also learned about the advanced meditation methods of the academy, and even applied for the opportunity to practice Phantom Crow Thousand Spirits when he was first promoted to a formal wizard.

However, due to talent limitations, Justin was not qualified to practice advanced meditation methods, which was one of the reasons why he finally betrayed the academy and became a fallen person.

"A kid who has been on the wizard's journey for less than a hundred years is actually qualified to practice advanced meditation?"

The luster in Justin's eyes changed. Recalling his experience in the academy, he couldn't help but feel jealous, and the expression on his face gradually became ferocious.

At this moment, the surrounding environment changed in vain.

The mist-shrouded forest appeared in front of Justin's eyes. He was briefly confused in his mind. When he was about to think, a crisp voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Hey, Justin, what are you doing?"

Justin turned around subconsciously. A girl with a bright smile stood in front of him. She stuck out her tongue and said, "We are on a mission in the misty forest now. If you are still stunned, be careful to be killed by the monsters in the forest."

If you take her away, I won't rescue you."

"Nina...Nina?" Justin's heart suddenly tightened when he saw the girl in front of him.

"Of course it's me. Is there anyone else willing to team up with you?" The girl named Nina wrinkled her nose and said displeasedly, "Let's go quickly. The longer we stay in the Mist Forest, the more we may encounter

The more danger there is.”

"Perform the mission as soon as possible. I have to go back to the college's restaurant for a big meal." As she said that, Nina grabbed Justin's arm and walked towards the forest.
