Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems-Chapter 247: The Great Victory of Perseus Eye

"Stop talking nonsense. We harpies won't get involved in the war between you humans' black and white wizards. I came this time to repay a favor. I hope you at Blood Curse Court won't be ungrateful and try to stop me." Princess Arya waved her hand, "Take Sophia and the others away."
Immediately, from the crack in the Wall of the Faithless sealing barrier, the harpy tribe flew out and descended toward the ground.
Harpies grabbed Locke and the others on the ground by their shoulders with both claws and flew toward the sky.
They flew out through the crack previously made on the sealing barrier's surface.
Locke hadn't expected that Witch Sophia still kept this backup plan. A force of over a thousand harpies passed through the sky in a mighty formation. Almost no curse life forms dared to obstruct them.
Those crystal skulls, because the seal was broken, for a time only sealed off Corinth city-state itself, while the white wizards who should have been sealed inside had all run out.
Locke observed that this harpy tribe was extremely powerful. There were actually over a hundred harpies equivalent to first-class wizard apprentices, and the weakest harpies all possessed second-class wizard apprentice strength.
Within the tribe, there were even three formal wizard level harpies including Princess Arya.
It could be said that this harpy force would be an enormous power wherever it went in the southeastern quadrant.
'I remember harpies are modern magical creatures. But according to records in the Tome of the Tombstone that old man McCarthy gave me, the harpy royal family possesses the bloodline of the ancient magical creature [Erinyes Harpy].'
Locke stared at Princess Arya, thinking.
Princess Arya turned back to look at Locke, sniffed, then turned her head to Witch Sophia and said, "Sophia, that's your student, right? You mentioned him to me before. Your student's scent is quite special. Did he undergo some special bloodline modification on himself?"
Witch Sophia said, "Yes, he's learned archaeological spells."
Princess Arya's gaze toward Locke immediately changed, shifting from originally not caring much to facing and sizing him up, even with an attitude of some importance.
"An archaeologist. That wizard profession is relatively rare even among black wizards."
"To make your scent this special, it seems you've already touched upon that domain." Princess Arya said to Locke.
Locke nodded and said to Princess Arya, "Lady Arya, I've undergone ancient creature bloodline modification on myself."
Princess Arya smiled and said, "As expected. Then you will be an honored guest of our Harpy Royal Court."
"Our Harpy Royal Court welcomes all archaeologists, regardless of rank, to visit our court. Because of this, we made an exception to sign pacts with human wizards... especially black wizards."
"Of course, we also welcome excellent potion masters."
Locke indeed felt that after they learned he was an archaeologist, some of the harpies around him even looked at him with a measure of respect.
Witch Sophia explained to Locke, "Locke, harpies are different from us wizards. After they mature, they possess first-class wizard apprentice magic pressure. To continue improving, they can only rely on natural bloodline growth, or simply consuming certain precious magical resources, or tracing back to the source of their bloodline to continue growing."
Locke suddenly understood. So the Harpy Royal Court definitely needed potion masters and archaeologists. No wonder these intelligent magical creatures would rarely get involved in human affairs.
Locke noticed that both Witch Sophia and Witch Gabriel were actually flying using their own magic.
Within the harpy group, there was a massive invisible airflow. As long as one flew together with them, mana could be saved and flight speed would increase out of nowhere, matching the harpy tribe's group flight speed.
This seemed to be a group flight spell ability.
Locke told the harpy above his head that he could also fly. That harpy released him, and immediately Locke's back spread out Large Green Owl Banana, moving freely among the harpy group.
"As expected, my flight speed matches the harpies' flight speed."
Suddenly, a paralysis curse struck the back of a harpy behind him, almost making that harpy fall directly from the sky.
Although she didn't actually fall, she also lost mobility and could only move by the harpies' group passive spell.
Locke looked back and saw many black wizard apprentices following behind them. They stood on skeleton flying magical devices formed by seven-colored crystal skulls, following behind and continuously attacking the harpy group.
Not only could they release spells themselves, the crystal skull flying magical devices under their feet also continuously refracted different curse magics.
For a time, curse magic was everywhere behind him.
Princess Arya looked back to observe, "Those black wizards... there are too many, and if we stop, we'll definitely be surrounded by them, so we can't stop to fight them."
"Sophia, we can only counterattack while moving."
"Tell your students and friends to be careful themselves."
Dozens of black wizards followed behind Locke, including many first-class wizard apprentices. Their eyes contained cruelty. Each of their eyes continuously revealed the desire to capture Locke for merit. Curses, especially paralysis curses and bleeding curses, struck toward Locke.
But the next moment, all these curses were reflected back. A dazzling green light flashed. Quite a few first-class wizard apprentice black wizards were directly struck down from midair by the magical counterattack, falling directly from high altitude to the ground, dying frustratingly from the fall.
The black wizards didn't understand what happened.
"What just happened?"
"The curses seem to have all been reflected back, but over a hundred curses, how did he reflect them all back at once by himself?"
Locke looked at the Perseus Eye Lichen beside him. This lichen had been completely scorched. The 0.5-circle Moss Shield on it had also been destroyed.
At this moment, he took out the remaining five Perseus Eye Lichens from his astral ring, withstanding those black wizards' curse magic attacks.
Curse rays passed by. The eyes in the centers of those lichen shields all lit up with green light, reflecting those curses back.
Although the Perseus Eye shield lichens were consumed very quickly, they indeed not only protected Locke during the pursuit, but also protected the harpies around him, and even counter-killed quite a few first-class wizard apprentice black wizards and second-class wizard apprentice black wizards on the opposing side.
This pursuit lasted for who knows how long. Locke was killed to the point where he twice drank a bottle of Spirit Spring Soul Surge Potion, drank a bottle of Dermal Charging Suppository, a bottle of Cycad Purple Ming Tincture to enhance his combat power and stamina, only then managing to break through the encirclement.
He even killed until that group of black wizard apprentices who wanted to capture him for merit became somewhat afraid when they saw him.
'Bang~'
As the last Perseus Eye shield was damaged, the reflected green light also directly penetrated through a first-class wizard apprentice black wizard's heart, actually killing him directly.
Locke also discovered that the harpy group seemed to have already flown to the seaside and had already crossed over black wizard territory's sky, entering the sky above Lilith's Cottage's territory.
At this moment, those black wizard apprentices pursuing him all seemed to have some fear in their eyes. They no longer dared to charge forward. Some even began retreating.
Along the way, Locke attracted quite a bit of their firepower. Each of these people harbored thoughts of killing him to gain great merit.
Therefore, Locke was also getting angry at this point.
In any case, they were almost at the safe zone, so Locke simply directly activated his ancient creature bloodline.
His natural magic eye appeared on his forehead.
Locke glared at them angrily. His natural magic eye flashed with light. "Since you came, why must you leave? I'll give you a gift."
"All of you stay behind."
Locke concentrated almost all his mana into his natural magic eye. Immediately, a geomagnetic force shot out, shrouding the sky above that group of black wizards.
Quite a few black wizards were directly irradiated by the powerful geomagnetic force. Their bodies directly shattered into fragments. At the same time, at the center of the black wizards, a light pillar formed. Using that light pillar to form a strong magnetic field, it drew the surrounding black wizards inside.
Immediately, black wizard apprentices were sucked into that light pillar. Their flesh was destroyed inch by inch by the strong magnetic field.
The scene was extremely brutal.
In an instant, Locke killed until that group of black wizard apprentices each stopped in their tracks, not daring to advance.
A cunning old first-class wizard apprentice black wizard, scared out of his wits, hid at the edge of the battlefield, "Who is this person? I've never heard of this figure at Lilith's Cottage before. Too terrifying, simply a killing god. Where are we pursuing and killing them? It's actually him killing us."
"The defensive magical plant he uses has that kind of ghost eye pattern. His forehead also has a terrifying eye. He's simply an eye demon!"
"After today, he'll definitely have killed his way to fame at Blood Curse Court!"
Within those skulls of the Wall of the Faithless, the magic pressure of a formal wizard level black wizard appeared, "Student of Lilith's Cottage, aren't you being too pleased with yourself? You've killed so many of our students. I'll test your mettle on behalf of your teacher!"
A First Circle vampire suddenly made a move against Locke.
Curse magics struck toward Locke. In his urgency, Locke immediately drank bottle after bottle of Bear Spirit Jade Bile Detoxification Potion.
That vampire Stanley froze. He had originally struck using 16 small curse magics at once with the intent to kill, but who knew the curses would hit but not only did Locke not die, he barely suppressed his curses.
'That potion... the efficacy is too good.'
'Trouble created by Rashid's student.'
A murderous intent showed in Stanley's eyes, 'This student cannot be left alive. Otherwise, it would be too easy on Lilith's Cottage. Killing him would be enough to make Lilith's Cottage feel pain.'
Stanley chanted a spell. Immediately, Locke suddenly felt extremely thirsty. He hurriedly took out Narcissus Detoxification Water from his astral ring to drink as ordinary water, but no matter how much he drank, he still felt thirsty.
He consecutively changed to many kinds of potions, all useless. He still felt thirsty.
So much so that Locke's lips were dry. Looking at his right arm, he actually even had an urge to suck on it.
"What the hell, I'm really too thirsty. Worthy of a senior curse master. His blood curse actually directly bypassed my magic pressure soul structure to produce a curse effect on me." Locke swallowed.
"Right, take Minor Viridian Potion. Minor Viridian Potion possesses some characteristics of Viridian Potion. Maybe it can help me."
Locke hurriedly took out the last bottle of Minor Viridian Potion from his astral ring. Upon taking it, he indeed felt a partial relieving effect.
The First Circle black wizard Stanley behind him sneered coldly. Just as he wanted to continue acting to strengthen the [Thirst Blood Curse] on Locke, suddenly a blue standard iris shot toward his forehead like a dart.
"Terrible. Even with an undead body, if I'm hit by that kind of magical plant, I'll definitely die." Stanley was startled. He hurriedly flew to evade, but was still hit on his right arm by the blue standard iris. His right arm instantly turned into ice crystals. At the same time, the right half of his body turned into ice shards.
Witch Sophia only fought him once and directly made him lose half his life.
Stanley quickly pulled away from Locke to avoid Witch Sophia.
At the same time, he looked down and discovered that the blue standard iris originally inserted in his right arm had automatically disappeared, automatically returning to Witch Sophia's hand.
Witch Sophia looked at him coldly. Her eyes were full of killing intent. She pinched the blue standard iris's stem, seemingly considering whether to completely kill Stanley.
In fact, if it weren't for Stanley's permanent defensive field being a defensive type blood curse, that strike just now would have already taken his life.
Stanley no longer dared to pursue Locke. Instead, he actively pulled away, gnashing his teeth. "Remember this, all of you, especially that kid, seems to be called Locke Augustine."
"You'll never be able to leave Lilith's Cottage's territory in this lifetime. As long as you dare step out once, I'll immediately pursue and kill you. A formal wizard's pursuit is enough to make you live in constant fear."
"Hahahaha..."
At the same time, Locke felt his left hand was itchy. Looking down, he discovered that on his left arm was left an extremely ugly bat-shaped scar.
"This is a tracking curse." Locke frowned, "I don't really care about being pursued and killed. I wasn't planning to go out before becoming a formal wizard anyway. But this curse scar is really too ugly."
Witch Sophia looked at the scar on Locke's arm. Immediately, her gaze turned cold. She directly left the harpy group and killed her way back. When Stanley saw Witch Sophia returning, scared, his loud laughter abruptly stopped. He immediately turned to flee.
As soon as he left, three powerful First Circle plant magics from Witch Sophia fell behind him, killing swathes of the black wizard students he had brought.
A blue standard iris even hit the heart of another formal wizard among the pursuers. This formal wizard's permanent defensive field wasn't a defensive type blood curse. Moreover, he was only an ordinary First Circle wizard, so he was immediately reversely infused with ice element particles by the blue standard iris. He directly lost elemental balance. His soul and flesh collapsed, entering magical vortex phenomena and reverberation phenomena.
Witch Sophia stood in the sky above Lilith's Cottage's boundary line, frowning. "He actually escaped."
"However, elemental imbalance isn't an ordinary injury. Even with half his life remaining, his days ahead won't be easy. His mana will decline daily. His future path is cut off. He can only barely stay alive."
"This kind of injury requires extremely precious potions to heal."
