Chapter 323 Destroying His Research
The wizard was taken aback and didn't react in time.
A knight's lance pierced his chest.
Frandi's eyes widened, and he said, "Mentor Leo, the armor on these Sky Knights looks somewhat similar to your research on exoskeleton spell absorption devices."
Leo did not answer. He used the pumpkin carriage spell to quickly reach the wizard's side and grabbed him by the body.
Leo tossed the wizard's wounded body behind him and said, "Heal him with healing spells first."
After Leo finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the Sky Knights in front of him and said righteously, "There is something strange about these knights. Let me test them. You may all step back."
After Leo finished speaking, he began to cast a spell.
Flames and lava, multi-stage cutting... all sorts of ordinary spells were unleashed as if they were free.
These spells, however, had no effect on the Sky Knights who possessed exoskeleton spell absorption equipment.
This scene astonished the other wizards behind the scenes.
They never imagined that one day a wizard would be unable to defeat a knight.
A look of doubt flashed across Frandi's eyes.
These demonic armors looked to him very much like the exoskeleton magic absorption equipment that Leo had given him before.
After Leo's spells proved ineffective, he warned the other wizard apprentices: "These sky knights are strange. Be careful and try not to get close to them."
With Leo as an example, the wizard apprentices also consciously kept their distance from the knights when casting spells.
Their spells, without exception, were absorbed by the demon armor.
"Our spells aren't working; how are we supposed to keep fighting?"
Frandi said, "Let me do it."
"Since ordinary spells are ineffective, let's try combination spells."
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Let me do it."
Stoffen appeared before the Sky Knights.
Stoffen waved his arm.
Bolts of lightning surged forth.
The demonic armor worn by the Sky Knights initially attempted to absorb the spell, just as before.
For a fleeting moment, the magic cast by Stoffen flowed into the demon armor.
However, these demon armors began to creak and crack.
In no time, the demon armor shattered into pieces.
In an instant, the lightning turned the Sky Knights black with electricity, causing them to plummet from the sky.
After Stoffen had done all this, he disappeared, leaving only one sentence behind.
"These toys are alright."
This scene left the other wizards speechless.
Even Leo's eyes flickered slightly.
If it were Leo himself, he knew he wouldn't be able to deal with this group of Sky Knights so easily.
At least a combination of spells would be needed to break through the demon armor on the Sky Knights.
But Steffen simply cast a common spell and wiped out the entire group of Sky Knights.
This is precisely what makes a legitimate wizard so terrifying.
Even when they used only ordinary spells, they still possessed terrifying power.
Having already witnessed the power of a formal wizard, Leo quickly recovered and said, "Frandi, take some men to clean up the area where these knights fell and see if you can find any fragments of their armor. If you can get these fragments, they might be helpful for the research I gave you."
"Yes, Instructor Leo."
When Leo returned to his room on the expedition island, Stoffen's falcon had been waiting for him for a long time.
The falcon licked its wing, and Stoffen's voice came through.
"Leo, the equipment these Sky Knights are wearing is related to you, isn't it?"
Leo shook his head, denying it, and said, "It has nothing to do with me. However, the fact that these Sky Knights came here is indeed related to me. I manipulated them using the bloodline ability of the Demon Dragon that you gave me, my mentor."
Stoffen's calm voice came through: "You don't seem to be hiding anything."
Leo said, "Of course, Master Stoffen. After all, this is a bloodline ability you gave me, and it's impossible for me to hide it from you when I use it. In that case, I might as well just be frank."
"Very good. Compared to Philia, your performance has indeed satisfied me greatly."
Stoffen said, "If it were Philia, he might argue with me for a while before reluctantly saying it himself."
Leo did not respond.
The tutor was reminiscing about the previous year's underachievers, and Leo wouldn't interrupt or disturb his enjoyment.
In any case, when it comes to acting cute and innocent, you don't need to actively compare yourself; let the mentors do the comparing.
Stoffen said, "Leo, what are you trying to do by controlling them?"
Leo said, "I want to interfere with Augusta's research."
After Leo said this, Stoffen fell into a long silence.
Even the falcon's movements seemed to have stopped in the room, the silence was eerily quiet.
After a moment, Stoffen said, "Leo, next time you encounter something like this, be more careful. Although I'll stand by you, if you act rashly, Augusta might notice beforehand."
Leo nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, mentor."
Stoffen said, "Since I am also a formal wizard of the Tower of Dawn, it's normal for you to distrust me. However, Augusta's prophetic skills are already considered to be at their peak among first-ring wizards."
"In addition, the magic stone is covered with traces of prophetic spells."
"Augusta can keep an eye on people who possess magic stones whenever he wants."
Leo had already suspected something about the magic stone, and Stoffen's conversation with Leo, which specifically used a falcon, made Leo even more certain that Augusta might have overheard their conversation.
However, Leo was still quite shocked to hear Stoffen say this: "Master Stoffen, if that's the case, then there's a risk that our current conversation might be overheard by Augusta."
"That's not the case. While Augusta's magic does indeed have the ability to hear so many sounds, ultimately, it's still just an individual entity."
"It's impossible to maintain constant surveillance of everyone who possesses magic stones."
"According to my research, Augusta's eavesdropping is highly likely to occur in one situation: when two wizards come into contact, and one of them is a certified wizard, he will pay close attention."
"As for other times, he generally doesn't use magic stones to eavesdrop."
Leo said, "I will be careful, Mentor Stoffen."
The falcon slightly spread its wings, and Stoffen's voice came through: "The armor these Sky Knights are wearing, isn't it the exoskeleton magic absorption equipment you showed me before?"
