Vampire Howard was frantically fleeing through mid-air, flying around everywhere like a fly.
Following behind him using Plant Mimicry: Bird of Prey, Locke held his Three-Headed Rapid-Fire Peas, shooting streams of three lines of burning steel pellet peas at him.
The burning flas and terrifying steel pellets seed to be tearing through the air.
Vampire Howard glanced at the magical plant seed fla lines that kept following behind him, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
"Master's spells are following too closely. With the slightest carelessness, I'll be hit."
"Curse magic must make contact to take effect. Ordinary curse masters couldn't possibly get close to master. What kind of magical plant is that? I've never seen it before..."
"Worthy of being the white wizard master that I, Howard, have submitted to."
The next mont, Locke recited the split spell, and imdiately the three burning steel pellet pea seeds beca six. These six burning steel pellet pea seeds traced out a firepower network in the air, directly locking onto all of Howard's directions.
'Bang~'
Howard grunted and was directly shot down from the sky by Locke.
Looking at this scene, Locke nodded with satisfaction. He had just used the Three-Headed Rapid-Fire Peas' half-speed firing mode, at most adding the split spell.
If he used full-speed firing mode plus the split spell, the firepower network ford in that instant would be even more terrifying.
Even first-class wizard apprentice vampires with more powerful mana probably couldn't withstand it.
This way, his current dium to long-range attack spells included [tal Torrent Series] and [Mayfly Flower Cannon], close combat spells included [All Plants Are Soldiers] and [Vine Torrent Series], and for flight and movent, he had [Plant Mimicry].
There were also auxiliary 0.5-circle spells like Wild Grass Entanglent and Scorched Earth Bomb.
His combat system was basically complete.
The only thing was that the defensive magical plant he used, Perseus Eye, could only be driven using a 0.5-circle spell [Moss Shield] that he had just recently learned but it was manageable.
The 0.8-circle [Mayfly Flower Cannon] could completely serve as his trump card besides the Three-Eyed Tiger Eye Cat bloodline.
The potential of the Corrupt Soil Taro King and Mayfly Flower Cannon was actually very powerful, just previously limited by his mana and unable to be fully utilized.
Now with his five hundred mana, he could barely develop all of its spell power.
[Mayfly Flower Cannon] had relatively slow attack speed, but once it hit an enemy, it could play a decisive role.
Even the puppet controlled by Hussein's curse back then couldn't break the fungal spore shells of the Mayfly Flower Cannon for a while.
Puppets controlled by curse masters using curses already possessed a large portion of their original body's strength.
From Locke's current perspective, when he encountered Hussein at the treatnt center, who controlled a puppet and fought seven white wizards on his side alone, the strength gap wasn't as large as he initially thought.
After all, a curse master's most powerful weapon was curse magic, and Hussein was already using new types of curses he was developing to deal with them.
Locke stored the Three-Headed Rapid-Fire Peas and Large Green Owl Banana in his astral ring, landed on the ground, and walked to the crater where Howard had fallen. He threw a bottle of magical creature blood into the crater.
Vampires had one advantage: they were durable.
Ten minutes later, Howard climbed out of the crater. Locke took out a clean coat from his astral ring and threw it to him.
Howard took the clothes and quickly thanked Locke, "Thank you, master."
Locke glanced at vampire Howard and asked, "Howard, why did you beco a black wizard in the first place?"
Howard, who was putting on clothes, was stunned for a mont, then showed a bitter smile, "Master, I was born in black wizard territory. I ca from a commoner family in black wizard territory. Have you ever seen people eating people?"
"Also, people killing people isn't illegal. Instead, we commoners have to pay compensation to the slave master nobles, because our commoners' deaths polluted the eyes of those slave master nobles."
"The mortal countries in black wizard territory are even more disorderly and chaotic than those in white wizard territory. The countries there still operate under slavery, with most people in a country being slaves. Only by becoming a black wizard could my family beco part of the at-eating class... then I wouldn't be breaking the law by killing people, and we could eat others..."
"This was my earliest reason for wanting to beco a black wizard." Howard's eyes showed a trace of confusion, "But before you asked why I beca a black wizard, I had never seriously thought about this question."
"Shouldn't people born in black wizard territory aim to beco black wizards?"
Locke nodded slightly. He was just asking casually.
It seed black wizards had many sources. One type was like Howard, cultivated from childhood. Others were captured from the mortal world by black wizards, and a few white wizards who actively defected to black wizard territory.
Locke looked up and saw a snow-white owl flying toward him. He waved, and the owl landed on his hand. Locke removed the letter from the owl's leg, and his expression changed slightly upon opening it.
"I see."
'Teacher has already used the black wizard spy in her hands to arrange for that second-class black wizard apprentice I planted a tomb spirit on to return to that Curse Ritual Research Institute.'
'In five more days, it will be the scheduled ti to begin action.'
'Teacher wants to use this advantage to obtain so information in advance. Of course, Teacher Sophia seems to have her own channels for investigating this Curse Ritual Research Institute.'
Just as black wizards developed undercover agents and contacts at Lilith's Cottage, as far as Locke knew, Lilith's Cottage had also arranged quite a few spies at the Blood Curse Court.
Locke closed his eyes. Perhaps due to the distant separation, his connection with that second-class black wizard apprentice nad Leoni Murphy beca sowhat intermittent, almost breaking off.
Fortunately, Locke now had Three-Eyed Tiger Eye Cat bloodline in his body. He used this bloodline to strengthen his archaeological spell sensing ability, stabilizing the summoned tomb spirit connection signal between them.
'The stability of negative energy particles naturally suits information retention and transmission, especially this kind of long-distance information transmission. If it were other magic, it would be impossible to achieve.' Locke thought.
But at the sa ti, Locke closed his eyes. He needed to focus all his energy on sensing that distant tomb spirit, heavily interfered with by layers of magic, located in a Curse Ritual Research Institute.
Locke's eyes gradually rged with the eyes of the tomb spirit behind Leoni Murphy, allowing him to directly see the scenes that the invisible tomb spirit could observe.
At this ti, Leoni Murphy was located in a great hall. The do of this hall was assembled from bones of various magical creatures and even human bones. Dozens of mummy specins wrapped in white bandages were hung from the do by black chains, suspended from above.
Like corpses hanging from the sky of hell.
The four walls of this hall all refracted complex, folding curse formula geotric patterns into the air.
In the hall, there were also many operating tables, typically with an unclothed living person on each table.
Their bodies were covered with dense curse formula text.
Among these living people were dwarves, elves, and humans. They had all been hit with paralysis curses, losing their ability to move and could only be slaughtered at will.
In front of each operating table stood a second-class wizard apprentice in black wizard robes. They were nervously using obsidian ceremonial knives to carve curse formulas on these living sacrifices, continuously folding basic curse formulas on these sacrifices, folding them into new advanced geotric curse formulas.
