Wizard, I Have Another World – Chapter 143

Chapter 143: Strength and Blood Elixir

The re-forged magic carpet, even with two people on it, was much faster than before.

Like an arrow shot from a bow, it drew a straight line across the sky, heading towards the depths of the Endless Sea.

The wind rushed against them.

Under the influence of the carpet’s force field, it transformed into a gentle breeze, ruffling the two people’s long hair.

“The smell of the sea.”

Yana reached out, touching the sea breeze, and murmured:

“It’s so nice.”

Desecrated Knights don’t live long, and she was no longer young, the influence of her bloodline was becoming more and more severe.

Sometimes.

It felt like she had only dozed off for a moment, but in reality, a day had passed, and her hair was becoming increasingly white.

It was as if something was about to burst out of her back.

She could only rely on her devout faith to soothe the fear and unease of death, something no one could help her with.

“We’re here!”

Karl lowered his head and looked at the sea.

In the undulating sea, an inconspicuous island came into view, with several ant-sized ships circling nearby.

As they got closer, the ships gradually grew larger, the largest warship was over a hundred meters in length.

The Entulesi!

The ship of homecoming.

The largest and fastest warship in Rapid Flow City.

Its hull was made of wood that was compatible with wind elements, and it was equipped with a super-powered vehicle.

At sea,

this ship of homecoming could hunt legendary creatures!

There were also several cog ships and small warships, mainly used for transporting cargo, surrounding the Entulesi.

“Swish!”

The magic carpet folded in mid-air, landing on the deck of the Entulesi.

Aya, Connie, and others were already waiting there.

“Ahead is Crocodile Island.”

After the group greeted each other, Connie pointed to the island ahead and introduced:

“This island was discovered by the Dragon King Trading Company decades ago, and it has two legendary creatures that resemble crocodiles, so they named it Crocodile Island.”

“Unlike other legendary creatures, these two crocodiles can devour the souls of creatures near the island.”

“There was once a ship that got too close to the island, and all the crew members died.”

Devour souls!

With this characteristic, they most likely had an Abyssal bloodline.

Karl nodded in satisfaction, the method for refining a blood elixir automatically appeared in his mind.

The bloodline he had fused with was from the Abyss, so it would be best to refine a blood elixir with a similar bloodline, the effects would be better.

“Do you have a plan?”

He did not intend to take action himself, at least not if there were other options, he would not easily take risks.

“The legendary creatures on Crocodile Island not only devour souls, they also eat meat.” Aya said, stating the plan:

“We plan to send a few yellow goats to the island, the goats will be coated with poison, if they eat it, there’s a chance they’ll be poisoned to death!”

“Poison…” Karl frowned:

“Is there no other way?”

The accumulation of poison would make it impossible to refine a blood elixir from the corpses, and Abyssal creatures had a high resistance to poison.

It was likely to be useless, and might even provoke the targets.

“Another way?” Aya thought for a moment and said:

“The Sea God Society extracted a substance from a type of seaweed that can make people fall asleep, a few drops can put a black bear to sleep, how about making them fall asleep?”

“We can try that.” Karl nodded:

“Be careful.”

“Uncle, don’t worry, we’ve prepared a lot of potions to stabilize our souls.” Aya laughed:

“If it really doesn’t work, it’s not like we don’t have a chance to fight them head-on.”

She waved her hand and gave instructions.

“Replace the poison with the sleep-inducing Heath substance, be careful not to get it on any wounds, otherwise the yellow goats will fall asleep first.”

“Send ten onto the island!”

Not long after.

A simple bamboo raft carried ten plump yellow goats, bleating loudly, towards the island.

Because of the tailwind, the bamboo raft quickly reached the shore, and the yellow goats broke free of their restraints and bounded onto the island.

“They’ve appeared!”

The first to notice the abnormality was not Karl, but the Desecrated Knight, Yana.

As her bloodline gradually awakened, more and more special abilities were appearing on her body.

Super perception was one of them.

Two cold, brutal auras emerged from the center of the island, rushing towards the yellow goats scattered on the island.

“Four, five, six are gone…”

“So fast!”

There was a device on the ship to detect the yellow goats’ life force, and the person in charge of observation looked at the disappearing numbers with astonishment.

The yellow goats were not slow, they could even be said to be fast, and their reactions were sharp, it was not easy to hunt them.

What’s more.

They were scattered all over the island, and to be eliminated so quickly, it showed how fast the hunters were.

“Send another ten!”

Aya’s face was grim:

“The ships, retreat in an orderly manner, don’t break formation.”

“Yes!”

“Bamboo rafts!”

“Release the yellow goats!”

“Quick!”

“……”

The plan was carried out in an orderly manner, another ten yellow goats were released, and the ships were slowly retreating.

Karl looked at Aya, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

What had he missed in the past few years?

The little girl who used to hawk her wares in the market had actually grown to this point.

Connie, as a legendary captain of the Endless Sea, had handed over command to her, and did not show any displeasure.

“There’s only this much Heath substance on the ship, if it doesn’t work… I’m afraid we’ll have to attack head-on.”

“No need.”

Karl shook his head:

“They’ve already realized something is wrong.”

“Roar!”

Before he could finish speaking, a deafening roar suddenly rang out from the island, the sound waves transformed into a gale that swept across the surrounding sea.

The waves surged, and the ships rose and fell with them.

“Very strong!”

Yana’s expression was solemn:

“They are not ordinary legendary creatures.”

Karl didn’t find this strange at all.

The trading company in the Free Port had the ability to hunt legendary creatures, yet they still left them, it certainly wasn’t because they were kind-hearted.

It was because they didn’t dare to act, or the result of acting was miserable.

“Hmm?”

“They’re coming!”

Two huge black shadows rushed out of the island, smashing the trees and rocks in their path, charging towards the shore.

Their movements were noticeably sluggish, like they had underdeveloped cerebellums, their movements were clumsy.

This showed that the drugs were working.

Karl stepped forward and looked at the targets.

These were two giant crocodiles that were over twenty meters long, their bodies covered with scales that shimmered with a metallic luster.

Their heads were extremely large, covered with sharp fangs, each one as sharp as a knife, easily capable of crushing hard rocks.

Their pitch-black eyes were cold and cruel, like gazes from the Abyss, making it difficult to look directly at them.

Late Stage First Order, Abyssal Crocodiles!

‘Their strength is stronger than expected, but it’s okay, this is not the Magic Forest, and even a Late Stage First Order cannot borrow the power of the Astral Plane, and I’m not fighting alone, it’s a bit dangerous but not unacceptable.’

‘If this were the Magic Forest, let alone two, even if it was just one, I would have to stay far away, but it’s perfect for testing my current strength.’

‘Using their flesh and blood to refine a blood elixir, the effect will definitely be even stronger!’

“Roar!”

As he was thinking, the roar sounded again.

One of the Abyssal Crocodiles opened its mouth wide and roared at the ships on the sea, there were no sound waves, but rather an invisible mental fluctuation descended from the sky.

In an instant.

The ship closest to the island suddenly froze, and faint, barely visible shadows began to leave their bodies.

First Circle Spell ━ Soul Extraction!

“Bang!”

The hull of the Entulesi trembled slightly.

An arrow several meters long shot out from a cannon, piercing the ‘crocodile’ that was trying to devour souls.

The enormous penetrating force directly knocked the ‘crocodile’ away and interrupted its soul-devouring action, but the solid scales meant it was not seriously injured.

“Let’s go.”

Karl said:

“Separate them first.”

“Swish!”

Yana’s figure blurred, her whole body rapidly shot out, transforming into a shadow as she charged towards one of the targets.

Her extreme speed allowed her to step on the water as if walking on flat ground, and she reached her target in a few breaths.

Slash!

Seventeen Combo Attack!

The greatsword carried a pale aura of destruction, colliding with the ‘crocodile’, stirring up waves of air.

“Crash!”

The Entulesi cooperated by firing a giant arrow.

On the other side.

Karl, who had arrived above the island on the magic carpet, crushed a rune.

Chain Fireball!

A huge fireball, one meter in size, appeared out of thin air and crashed towards the other ‘crocodile’.

Automatic lock-on was the most basic function of a First Circle spell, and given the target’s size, it was naturally impossible to miss.

“Boom!”

The fireball exploded, transforming into a giant flame, the Abyssal Crocodile was sent flying by the force of the explosion.

And there was more than one fireball.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

Three fireballs followed in quick succession, directly sending the Abyssal Crocodile crashing into the forest a hundred meters away from the coastline.

“A First Circle wizard can unleash three Chain Fireballs in the early stage, six in the middle stage, and nine in the late stage.”

Karl’s eyes flickered:

“It’s not just an increase in quantity, the power will also increase accordingly.”

“Judging from the defensive power displayed by this Abyssal Crocodile, even if a Middle Stage First Circle wizard cast Chain Fireball, it would be difficult to seriously injure it.”

“Hmm?”

An invisible mental fluctuation rushed into his mind, Karl’s neck arched back, and he couldn’t help but let out a muffled groan.

Soul Impact!

It was like thousands of steel needles piercing his brain, wreaking havoc in his mental sea.

Fortunately, the existence of the Dimensional Cage and Thunder God’s Wrath allowed him to withstand this wave of attacks.

Especially Thunder God’s Wrath.

With the help of the Divine Domain Fragment, Karl had successfully started cultivating this spell, although he did not have an affinity for the power of thunder, the defensive ability of his soul was preserved, which was why he dared to come out hunting.

Even so, the momentary blankness in his mind still made it difficult for Karl to control the magic carpet, and his body swayed and fell from mid-air.

“Connie didn’t say that the targets had this kind of method?”

“If it was an ordinary Early Stage First Circle wizard, this attack would have directly crippled them.”

Shaking his head, Karl got up from the pit and muttered:

“It’s always good to prepare more, it really didn’t……”

“Thump!”

The earth shook, interrupting his grumbling, the Abyssal Crocodile, over twenty meters long, crashed through the trees and staggered towards him.

It was clear that the effects of the yellow goats’ drugs were still affecting it.

Karl’s expression hardened, a staff appeared in his hand, and he tapped it lightly in front of him.

Water elements quickly gathered, transforming into a river, rushing towards the oncoming Abyssal Crocodile.

The water flow was tens of meters long, filled with whirlpools and water arrows.

First Circle Spell ━ Tidal Force!

The staff was from Marianne, called the Staff of Life, it could increase the power of Life and Plant magic by 50%, and other spells by 30%.

In addition, the robe Karl was wearing was also from Marianne, its effect was to increase the speed of mental power recovery by 50%.

These two items were not convenient to reveal in the Magic Forest, but there were no such concerns here.

“Bang!”

The Abyssal Crocodile plunged headfirst into the water flow that had appeared out of thin air, and was frantically battered by the surging Tidal Force.

“Crack, crack…”

“Pfft!”

The scales were torn off by the undercurrent, and the flesh was ripped apart by the water arrows.

***

In the blink of an eye, the water flow gathered by the Tidal Force was dyed red, and the crocodile roared frantically within it.

‘I cultivate the Source Sea Meditation Technique and the Great Squid bloodline, both of which enhance water magic, plus the staff and the wizard’s robe…’

‘Being both First Circle spells, the power of Tidal Force is much stronger than the rune-based Chain Fireball, no wonder wizards rarely use First Circle runes, it’s indeed not cost-effective.’

“Roar!”

A feeling of soul extraction surged into his mind, Karl let out a muffled groan, and once again drove the water flow to surge wildly.

“Useless!”

“With the enhancement of my Abyssal bloodline and magic, my resistance to soul and nightmare magic is terrifyingly high.”

“So…”

“Die!”

“Bang!”

The Abyssal Crocodile’s huge body smashed through the water flow, colliding with Karl, directly sending him flying.

“What the h*ll?”

Karl rolled on the ground, covered in mud:

“Poisoned, injured, weakened, and its strongest method is useless against me, yet it’s still so strong?”

“Late Stage First Order, so difficult to deal with?”

The Abyssal Giant Squid from back then was also Late Stage First Order, but it was a juvenile, far less powerful than the crocodile in front of him.

“No wonder they’ve been left alone for decades, they’re indeed powerful.”

Taking a deep breath, Karl’s eyes narrowed:

“Then let’s do this!”

“Swish!”

Thick tentacles emerged from his body, in the blink of an eye, a large squid appeared in the arena.

One of the slender tentacles wrapped around the staff, and with a gentle wave.

Tidal Force!

Several other tentacles wrapped around several greatswords, waving them in mid-air, streaks of sword light slashed towards the crocodile.

Divine Sanction!

Five Combo Attack!

The poison made the Abyssal Crocodile’s consciousness blurry, its body swayed, and its strength greatly reduced.

And its strongest methods were useless against Karl.

Faced with the attacks of magic and combat techniques, it immediately fell into a disadvantage, but it was still desperately roaring and resisting.

“Swish!”

Karl’s figure lunged forward, and the suction cups covered with fangs on his tentacles wrapped around the crocodile’s body.

Aura of Fear!

Devour!

“Suck!”

“Boom!”

“Rumble…”

The two giant beasts were entangled together, their outer layers wrapped in water, rolling wildly in the island’s dense forest.

The loud noises continued.

After a long time.

A disheveled Karl walked out of the ruins, summoned the magic carpet, and flew towards the other side.

The Desecrated Knight Yana was fighting with another Abyssal Crocodile.

Her physical body was extremely unique, her Evil God bloodline could resist most spells, including mental spells.

And the prayer path was best at resisting mental attacks.

Every day, every hour, even every second, she was resisting the erosion of her bloodline’s will.

In terms of resistance,

she was no less than Karl.

In addition to her terrifying explosive power and recovery speed, even when facing a Late Stage First Order, she could fight head-on.

What’s more,

there was also support from the warship in the distance, although it was difficult to defeat the opponent in a short time, she was not at a disadvantage.

First Circle Spell ━ Tidal Force!

Karl tapped his staff lightly, and the water flow swept over, instantly trapping the Abyssal Crocodile in place.

Slash!

Yana’s eyes narrowed, her body and sword merged into a stream of light, piercing through the Abyssal Crocodile’s head.

…………

Afterwards.

Karl reviewed the day’s actions.

“It was a bit dangerous.”

“Fortunately, the targets were eliminated in the end, you guys clean up the island and return to Rapid Flow City.”

“Next time, choose a less dangerous place.”

He thought that in this Other World where Second Order beings were rare, he had many methods to enhance his power, so there shouldn’t be any danger.

Unexpectedly.

Danger was everywhere!

“Uncle.”

Aya was directing people to board the island, she asked when she heard him:

“Aren’t you going back with us?”

“No.” Karl shook his head:

“I still need to deal with these two corpses, Yana can stay.”

Without waiting for Aya and the others to speak, he turned around, grabbed a corpse, and walked towards the depths of the island.

The lair.

Abyssal creatures preferred underground locations.

The ‘residences’ of the two Abyssal Crocodiles were somewhat similar to underground caves, damp and cold, covered with various mosses and algae.

“Ghost Face Moss, Yin Stone…”

“There are quite a few good things!”

After checking the surrounding environment and collecting the useful materials, Karl sat cross-legged in the center of the lair.

“The reason why blood elixir can accelerate the fusion of bloodlines is because it can stimulate one’s own bloodline.”

“To refine a blood elixir, in addition to the life force of a similar bloodline creature, you also need the user’s own…”

“Heart blood!”

“Why does it feel like I’m a demonic cultivator?”

Shaking his head, Karl’s eyes narrowed, and he used his fingers like a sword, slashing hard at his heart.

“Pfft…”

The flesh cracked open, revealing his beating heart.

He flicked his finger lightly, and a drop of heart blood flew out, suspended in front of him, and a magic circuit was drawn on it.

And the wound on his chest healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Abyssal bloodline,

the current Karl, other than his head being a fatal point, other places, including his heart, could be repaired, it was no problem to open the floodgates of his heart blood.

“Go!”

He uttered a low cry, and the heart blood that had been cast with a spell shot towards the corpse in the arena, and then a ball of blood light appeared.

The blood light enveloped the corpse, and as time passed, the Abyssal Crocodile would gradually transform into a blood elixir.

*

*

*

Half a month later.

Bloodline fusion 30% ━ 32%,

Constitution 5.9 ━ 6.4.

After taking a blood elixir, both his bloodline fusion and constitution had improved, but his mental power remained unchanged.

“My cultivation has greatly increased!”

Karl was invigorated:

“Even if I take blood elixirs continuously, the effects will be weakened, but the blood elixir refined from the second Abyssal Crocodile can still increase the fusion by at least a little.”

“If I don’t count the failures, and refine several batches of blood elixirs, wouldn’t it be easy to advance to the Middle Stage of a wizard?”

“Heh…”

“You’re thinking too much.”

“Using the flesh and blood of a Late Stage First Order to refine a blood elixir, the increase in bloodline fusion will definitely be high, but even in the Other World, Late Stage First Order beings are not common, and Abyssal bloodlines are probably even rarer.”

“But overall, with the help of suitable potions, it’s much faster than cultivating on your own.”

Calming his mind, he narrowed his eyes and fell into thought.

‘There is a hard requirement for mental power to advance to a Formal Wizard, but it doesn’t seem to be the case for becoming a Second Circle Wizard?’

‘Bloodline wizards focus on bloodline fusion and constitution, their need for mental power is weaker, isn’t this a different path for knights?’

Karl touched his chin:

‘After the Path of the Knight reaches the Legendary Realm, is there anything beyond that?’

It seemed there was,

but he wasn’t optimistic about it.

There were currently three known cultivation paths.

The path of the wizard.

The Path of the Knight.

The path of the priest.

The path of the priest could also be called the path of faith, and it was the path he was least familiar with.

In both worlds, the Path of the Knight was dependent on deities, and what the deities truly promoted was the path of faith.

Because the path of faith was inseparable from deities, while knights, although they emphasized devotion, their power ultimately belonged to themselves, so they would naturally be suppressed.

“The deities allow the Path of the Knight to exist because war is unavoidable, but they will definitely have a red line.”

“The strength of a knight cannot exceed the red line.”

…………

“Karl.”

Wizard Bern got up and poured wine:

“Why are you always spacing out?”

“Oh!” Karl came back to his senses:

“Sorry, I was thinking about some cultivation issues.”

“Even when you come out for a drink, you’re still thinking about cultivation, no wonder you were able to become a Formal Wizard at such a young age.” Enid raised her glass:

“Have a taste, this is the dwarves’ Lambas wine, brewed with special rice, it has a unique flavor.”

Karl picked up his glass, first took a sip, and then his eyes lit up, and he began to gulp it down.

“Good wine!”

“I knew you would like it.” Enid laughed:

“But drinking it like that is a bit wasteful.”

“Wizard Enid is very knowledgeable about wine?” Karl looked at her:

“That’s rare.”

Not many wizards liked to drink, wizards didn’t like anything that would make them lose their minds.

Wine,

was one of them.

Even fewer female wizards liked to drink.

“I liked it when I was young.” Enid raised her glass, her eyes wistful:

“Later, I never thought about giving it up.”

“Having a hobby is actually a good thing.” Wizard Bern said:

“Focusing solely on cultivation and studying knowledge will only make one boring, and it’s not good for cultivation either.”

The three of them had unknowingly formed a small circle.

Enid from the Nelson family, although she was a wizard, was very timid, and was skilled in weaving.

Wizard Bern was a rogue cultivator, who ran a shop in the market.

The two of them had been wizards for many years, but their cultivation had progressed slowly, and now they had given up on cultivation.

Instead, they began to cultivate relationships.

Karl, as a disciple of the Six Rings Tower, and being nearby, naturally became the target of their efforts.

“The dangers outside the market have not been cleared, and business is not good.” Wizard Bern said:

“I heard that the three major families are planning to forcibly conscript the wizards in the market to clear out the remnants of the beast tide?”

“Has the news already spread?” Enid was startled, and nodded:

“There is such a rumor.”

“The Second Circle wizard from the Andrew family won’t stay here forever, he wants the market to return to peace as soon as possible, who wouldn’t want that…”

The Andrew family did not only control this one market.

“Karl.” Bern said:

“If you really have to go out to clear the beast tide, do you want to go together?”

“This…” Karl frowned:

“I might be with the disciples of the Tower, but I hope I won’t be conscripted, after all, I’ve only just become a Formal Wizard, and I haven’t truly mastered First Circle spells yet.”

He said with a wry smile on his face.

“That’s right!”

He remembered something and asked:

“Wizard Enid, I’ve been planning to cultivate flight magic recently, I wonder if you have any recommended knowledge?”

Enid was skilled in crafting magical items, especially magic carpets, which were the best in the market.

The magic inscribed on the magic carpet was flight magic.

“There’s no need to be so troublesome.”

Enid laughed:

“If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can come and ask me directly, and the fee… I can give you a 50% discount.”

After all, he was a Formal Wizard, even if they were trying to curry favor, they wouldn’t make it too obvious, they still had to charge a fee.

“That’s great!” Karl got up and thanked her:

“I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you in the future.”

“You’re too polite, Karl.” Enid waved her hand:

“We’re friends, it’s only right that we help each other.”

“Huh…”

“Isn’t that someone from your shop down there?”

Karl turned his head and saw Lance sneaking towards the outer edge of the market, his brow furrowing.

What was he up to?
