Constructing-Style Wizard - Chapter 554
Chapter 554: 179. The captain betrayed the enemy.
“Berkeley, don’t act rashly.”
Mabel watched the magic metal avatar in front of her constantly sprouting spikes and said gently:
“As a Nine Circles Metal Battle Mage, you’re wealthy and have a bright future. You’re one of the top figures in this world. If you’re collaborating with that suspicious group, you are most likely falling into their trap. They might have something on you. Don’t worry, Berkeley. Cooperate with the Wizard Enforcers and capture those suspicious people. Your suffering will soon end.”
There were far fewer metal spikes on the magic metal avatar, and its fluctuations began to stabilize.
It seemed Mabel hit the nail on the head.
It was precisely because Berkeley was manipulated by the suspicious people that he allowed them onto the ship under duress.
Just as Mabel was about to seize the opportunity to say something, a shrill noise came from all directions.
“Beep—————-”
Noland Lee’s brow furrowed.
Was this noise from outer space?!
His heart skipped a beat, then he realized he was mistaken.
He and Denise Green have been maintaining the “Soul Shield” on their bodies.
Denise’s “Soul Shield” was not obtained from a magic scroll.
After resolving the Blood Sun Seal’s contaminated area last time, Noland cautiously decided to pass the spell blueprint of “Soul Shield” to Denise.
As a result, Denise mastered the “Soul Shield” spell.
The spell blueprint for the “Soul Shield” is complete, without any flaws. Noland completed this blueprint in numerous dismantling processes of the Undead Cult’s magic protective cover.
Noland only has the complete blueprints for two spells, “Soul Shield” and “Soul Freeze”. Due to the completeness of the spell blueprint, he dared to pass the “Soul Shield” to Denise.
For other spells, like “Mind View”, which is only 10% complete, Noland wouldn’t dare to teach to anyone.
Because if the spell blueprint is incomplete, the spell cannot be cast. This is a consensus in the wizarding world. Noland is the only one who has broken this consensus. Others, including Denise, should be unable to cast spells using incomplete spell blueprints.
With the protection of the “Soul Shield”, Noland and Denise didn’t need to worry excessively about being attacked by the noise from outer space.
At this moment, both of them heard the shrill noise, but the “Soul Shield” didn’t respond. This annoying beep-like noise wasn’t intercepted by the “Soul Shield”.
It’s not an attack on the soul, mind, or body.
Apart from causing eardrum swelling, this noise doesn’t have many more negative effects.
Noland and his companions maintained their composure amid the noise.
However, on Berkeley’s magic metal avatar, terrifying several meters long spikes suddenly appeared.
This avatar turned into or rather resembled a metal porcupine!
Noland knew the situation had changed. He looked up at the sky, gazing at the Wizard Enforcers flying over in their magic ship.
Denise also looked at the sky.
Their gaze froze in an instant.
The originally green magic barrier used to filter moisture and the smell of the sea was quickly turning into a full metal dome.
From the highest point of the magic barrier, the greyish magic metal was spreading in all directions of the dome, giving one the feeling as if the entire sky was going to be obscured by the metal dome.
The enforcers who came to enforce the law had already flown to the magic ship. Their arrival accelerated the expansion of the metal dome.
With a “clang” sound, the bottom of the metal dome collided with the metal deck of the magic ship. The whole magic ship was covered by the metal dome.
What was initially a bowl-shaped hemisphere shaped magic ship had now turned into an airtight metal sphere.
Luckily, the Wizard Enforcers were swift enough. They rushed in just before the metal dome closed, successfully joining up with Mabel.
There were about fifty of these Wizard Enforcers.
They had different garments, but they all wore masks that covered most of their faces, making it impossible to see their true features clearly.
From their clothing style and the patterns woven into their magic robes:
Hotams Magic Academy sent the most people, led by a female Nine Circles Wizard from the Deep Sea.
This Nine Circles Wizard was female, with hair like flowing water.
The magic robes she wore also seemed to be made of dark blue seawater, constantly causing ripples and small waves as she moved.
Other than this Deep-sea Witch, there was also an Eighth Circle Metal Combat Wizard from the Metal Branch.
This Metal Combat Wizard was here to persuade Berkeley to surrender.
After all, Berkeley was a famous, old Combat Wizard. If they could persuade him to surrender, it would be the best outcome. Moreover, persuasion is part of the emergency plan.
The Light Wizards, sent by the Pure Light Court, were slightly fewer in number than those from Hotams, led by a Ten Rings Light Wizard.
All of them wore pure white magic masks and magic cloaks that scattered the light of dawn. Apart from the leader, all Light Wizards had strength from the Fourth Ring to the Seventh Ring.
Finally, among the enforcement team was a familiar face, the Seventh Ring Silent Witch Jasmine Morgan, whom Noland met under less-than-friendly circumstances.
This Seventh Ring Silent Witch was supposed to be in Union City, but was sent onto the magic ship by Professor Erica.
When Jasmine Morgan saw Noland sweep his gaze over her, she nodded, took out a magic pouch and threw it over.
After Noland caught the magic pouch, Jasmine Morgan gestured at him with hand signals meaning “Leave this place and proceed according to the plan.”
