The Wizard: Starting by Scamming the Demon God

Page 172

With a roar, the Holy Lord's already tall body swelled even more, and the dark golden scales on his body increased and thickened. At the same time, dark red demonic patterns appeared on his body, like cracks!

The magic runes surged with a violent magical power, like magma!

This is the power from the Demon God of Purgatory!

In addition to growing larger, having thicker scales, and developing crack-like demonic patterns on its body, the Holy Lord's claws have become sharper, and extremely sharp and ferocious spikes have grown from its elbows!

"Oh!"

After the transformation was completed, the Holy Lord was enveloped in pitch-black infernal flames, and then the cliff he was standing on exploded, sending him flying out instantly!

"Swoosh~~"

Beside him, the Three-Eyed Goblin slowly emerged from the tightly wrapped, dark brown, twisted tree roots. He glanced at the tree roots, several of which had been broken by the rubble, and the large number of exposed Goblin Tree roots after the cliff shattered. His ugly face immediately scrunched up.

This barbarian...

Despite possessing the strongest dimensional magic in the world, he only knows how to use it for such crude things, which is a disgrace to the Dimensional Lord's painstaking efforts and his extremely pure dragon bloodline.

You can use it even if you only use it to fire magic cannons.

This three-eyed goblin can be considered a tribute to His Majesty the Lord of Dimensions.

"What a rude fellow!" The three-eyed goblin shook his head, waved his wand, and the exposed roots of the goblin tree surged wildly, burrowing into the ground.

Once the Goblin Tree was fully rooted in the earth again, the Three-Eyed Goblin nodded in satisfaction. Then, it continued to wave its wand, overworking its magic eye between its brows. With the massive dimensional magic it channeled and the life essence absorbed from the Goblin Tree, it continuously created massive, muscular goblins.

Although the Muscular Goblin is much weaker than the Wood Goblin, its advantage is that it does not require the energy stored in the wand itself. As long as there is enough life essence, it can be created almost infinitely.

It is the most suitable biological weapon for large-scale warfare for the Three-Eyed Goblin.

On the other side, the Holy Lord didn't care about the cliff he had trampled, nor did he care about the life or death of the Three-Eyed Goblin. Dimensional Apostles were just expendable resources anyway. All he cared about now was that bastard who had ruined his good mood!

"Roar!"

The Holy Lord, who had been flying in, looked at the high-level demon wolves that were fighting fiercely on the battlefield. His mouth twisted into a ferocious grin, revealing teeth that gleamed with a cold, menacing light. Before he even arrived, he spat out a huge dark red fireball that hurtled towards the high-level demon wolves!

"Woo?" Sensing the powerful aura of the Holy Lord rushing towards it, even though its brain was controlled by the will of the wilderness, the instinct of the high-level demon wolf still detected the faint sense of threat emanating from the Holy Lord. It let out a roar and shot a jet-black ray of magic towards the Holy Lord!

"boom!"

The jet-black magic ray collided with the massive, dark red fireball in mid-air. The fireball shattered instantly, and although the magic ray was weakened considerably, it still managed to outrun the Holy Lord's fireball and shot straight towards it!

However, seeing this, the Holy Lord's smile widened even more, showing no distress at the fact that the fireball had missed the magic ray.

Because, as expected, the high-level dire wolf did not use its powers!

Regardless of the species or the extraordinary individual, as long as they can reach the third tier, they will naturally possess powers. This is why third-tier extraordinary individuals are all given the title of "higher level".

Therefore, even a high-level demon wolf raised in the wilderness, even if its intelligence is far lower than that of a normal high-level demon, will still awaken its powers. These powers will give it an overwhelming advantage when facing creatures below the third rank.

So, when a superior attacks a inferior one, normally the superior would start with power, but this stupid wolf started with magical breath.

This situation was within their expectations, because when they are dominated by the will of the wilderness, their own powers cannot be activated.

In other words, the mechanisms they derived from higher life forms have been banned; now, the competition is based on purer numerical values!

And the numbers...

Huh~

To put it bluntly, in terms of sheer numbers, even among higher beings, the Holy Lord, who possesses the bloodline of a dragon, the origin of a purgatory demon god, and the talent of an evil god white whale, is among the highest in terms of stats!

Chapter 234 The sweeping pioneering war!

"boom!"

The Holy Lord's magical power suddenly erupted, and he accelerated in the air in an instant, appearing in front of the demon wolf in a flash. His fist, as big as a casserole dish, suddenly fell and slammed the demon wolf into the ground!

"Roar!"

The demon wolf was not to be outdone. With a deep howl, a vast and evil magical power erupted from its body. Beneath its gray-black fur, its strong muscles bulged. The combination of magic and flesh unleashed unparalleled power!

"boom!"

then……

The head that had just been raised was smashed into the ground by the grinning Holy Lord!

This may seem incredible, after all, the Demon Wolf is a third-tier high-level demon, while the Holy Lord, although infinitely close to the third tier, has not yet crossed that threshold. Theoretically, he should not be able to have such an overwhelming battle against a third-tier life form.

Isaac's initial success in defeating the third-tier warrior was due to several factors: firstly, King Etra's own strength was relatively average; secondly, he was a knight, naturally weaker than a wizard; and thirdly...

Although Isaac appeared to be dominating him the whole time, he was actually using every trick in the book. If King Etra had possessed the fighting prowess of Caesar, Isaac wouldn't have been able to defeat him.

That's just how wizards fight.

In wizard battles, there are usually only two outcomes: overwhelming or being overwhelmed, at least that's how it seems.

As for evenly matched battles...

That's extremely rare.

Because wizards wield spells and powers, the clash of spells is something that even low-level wizards rarely do. Battles between wizards are usually about countering each other's moves and using their brains to fight.

Unlike the knight barbarian, who fights entirely on instinct.

Of course, you have to admit that many times, it's this kind of hand-to-hand combat that's more visually appealing!

"Roar!"

The long-awaited opportunity to unleash his full power in battle caused the Holy Lord to let out an excited low roar. The almost pure golden dragon blood flowed rapidly within his body, seemingly emitting bursts of dragon roars. Dark red magic power coiled around his arms, like the flames of purgatory, explosive yet silent.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, a punch imbued with the Holy Lord's full power landed heavily on the demon wolf, knocking off half of its head!

The near-fatal injury briefly allowed the wolf's consciousness to take control of its body, but it preferred not to have that control!

Because of it!

The mighty Mad Wolf!

The Wolf King who reigns supreme over the wolf clan!

The high-ranking wolf clan that rules over darkness!

He was actually nearly killed by three punches from this half-dragon who wasn't even a third-tier being.

This result is unacceptable to them!

Of course, its consciousness was only briefly clear, so it didn't know that the half-dragon who had beaten it half to death with three punches possessed a dragon bloodline comparable to a pure-blooded dragon, and its physique was no less than that of a dragon.

As for magic, the quality of magic originating from the bloodline of dragons is not low. Furthermore, it has received assistance from the evil god White Whale and the Purgatory Demon God, especially the latter, whose magic source has extraordinary power.

Although it is not a higher life form, both its physical body and magical power surpass those of most higher life forms!

Furthermore, since it was unable to use its powers, its defeat was only to be expected.

"boom!"

After smashing half of the demon wolf's head off with a punch, the fresh scent of blood excited him immensely, but he was not careless at all. His other fist, wreathed in jet-black flames, instantly fell down, blasting the remaining half into dust!

"Roar!!!"

After killing the demon wolf, the Holy Lord roared excitedly to the sky, and his explosive dragon might poured out in all directions without restraint. Wherever it passed, the weaker demons, though their eyes were still fierce and crazy, involuntarily collapsed.

On one hand, this stemmed from their bloodline's fear of the higher beings, the dragon. On the other hand, the Holy Lord's dragon might was too powerful, almost to the point of influencing real matter. Under the intimidation of this dragon might, they were weak all over and had no strength at all.

The will of the wilderness can make these monsters ignore mental oppression, but it cannot help them resist physical damage.

As these monsters fell like weeds, twisted and grotesque tree roots quickly sprang up from the ground, piercing their bodies and instantly draining them dry!

Then, all the life essence was sent back to the Three-Eyed Goblin, and more Muscular Goblins were created and sent to the front lines to fight.

In this process, in addition to the steady progress in expanding the scope, the Three-Eyed Goblin also made some gains among the group.

The prolonged and intensive use of the Magic Eye and the modification of the goblin have slightly enhanced its abilities. Although the modified goblin's combat strength has not changed much, its survival time has been greatly increased, now lasting for more than an hour!

The increase from ten minutes to over an hour is a significant leap. More importantly, it also allows for faster goblin transformation, enabling it to keep pace with the expanding battlefront.

Of course, being able to keep up only refers to the present. As the territory expands, the Muscular Goblin will also fall behind in battle, partly because its transformation speed cannot keep up, and partly because its strength cannot keep up...

Goblin...

Ultimately, they are still too fragile. Even with magical and powerful dimensional magic, their limits are limited.

In the midst of this intense battle, the Three-Eyed Goblin gradually realized this.

This made it abandon the goblin fusion plan in its heart, but it also made it look forward to the magic eye between its eyebrows, which was about to undergo another transformation after being washed by dimensional magic for a long time.

It hopes that this change in the power of the Magic Eye will no longer be related to goblins; if it wants to continue to grow stronger, it cannot become a goblin!

With a hint of anticipation, the Three-Eyed Goblin once again poured all its energy into the battle, and a steady stream of goblins flowed into the battlefield from it.

In this way, time passed slowly.

Soon, half a month passed, and the Holy Lord and the Three-Eyed Goblin's pioneering work went from being unstoppable at the beginning to being extremely difficult!

Because, in just half a month, they had created a whole viscountry for Isaac!

With a larger area comes greater pressure. It's important to understand that the reason why a typical pioneering viscount was able to withstand attacks from the wilderness was because of the tall fortress walls, the complex and powerful magical barriers, and the repeated clearing of the wilderness by generations of people.

The will of the wilderness, though yearning for revenge, was powerless to do so.

The Holy Lord and his group accomplished this goal in just half a month. They faced not only an almost endless army of demons, but also a lack of sufficiently strong city defenses, so it's normal that they were under great pressure.

Or rather, the fact that they haven't collapsed yet is already a miracle among miracles!

"Ha~ Hoo~ Ha~" On the battlefield, the Holy Lord casually tossed aside the corpse of a high-level demonic tiger. His dark golden eyes showed a hint of fatigue. Although his strength was formidable, his dragon bloodline also made him incredibly energetic.

But no matter how vigorous it is, it can't withstand such a long battle.

You should know that in the past two weeks, except for the first day which was a little better, he had to face more than two high-level monsters almost every day. One day he even fought three high-level monsters at the same time!

That time, if it weren't for the transformation of the demonic eye between the three-eyed goblin's eyebrows at the crucial moment, awakening the extremely strange Soul-Stealing Demonic Eye, which immobilized the two high-level demons in one fell swoop, and then he ruthlessly killed the two high-level demons instantly, reversing the battle situation.

Perhaps this pioneering mission has already failed...

Fortunately, they pulled through, and more importantly...

"call out!"

A sword aura suddenly shot out from behind, instantly severing the head of a high-level demonic serpent that was spraying venom!

"Lord Smith, you've finally arrived!" Upon seeing the sword energy, the dragonman's rugged face softened instantly, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
