The Wizard: Starting by Scamming the Demon God

Page 61

But legend has it that wizards have different beliefs. After reading this book, you can immediately read the next one. If you can multitask, reading two books at the same time can also provide the power of faith.

Therefore, the faith power that Isaac usually uses to modify the divine network is obtained by hypnotizing rats. It is of lower quality, but stronger than heterogeneous power.

Therefore, upon seeing this step, Isaac already knew the outcome.

So he waved his hand, and the giant rats that had been watching the show rushed toward the giant statue!

The greatsword demons then returned in an orderly fashion to the flesh dimension behind him, first turning into minced meat, then into blood, and finally into pure magic stored in the flesh nest.

"Hey! What are you doing! We're almost there!" Philo, who was excitedly watching the giant statue, suddenly noticed the movement of the giant horned rat swarm and immediately scolded Isaac.

Isaac rolled his eyes: "First, I didn't call you 'Hey,' and second, you'd never succeed."

He didn't explain much, but simply continued to let more giant rats swarm toward the colossus.

As a mere spectator, Hitz wasn't as angry as Philo. He watched with great interest as the giant horned rats surged toward the colossus like a tidal wave. He was curious how these little creatures would deal with such a tall and enormous colossus.

This colossus is no ordinary object. The main body of the statue is made of Harris Goat Steel, a type of steel forged from the flesh and blood of monsters, which is quite expensive.

While the weapons and armor made from this stuff aren't very strong, they possess excellent magical energy conduction properties and even have a slight growth potential. Most importantly, Harris goats can be raised in captivity. However, although their production is large, they mainly flow to the military, so this material is very expensive on the civilian market.

It's only because Filo is the eldest princess that even some great arcane mages couldn't obtain such a large quantity.

However, while Harris Goat Steel is of average strength, that is in its normal form. When it is enhanced by magic, it is a different story. Otherwise, it would not be used as the main material for military equipment.

Then, Hitz fell silent...

One by one, rats climbed up the golem's single leg, gnawing as they went.

Needless to say, with their claws and teeth, they couldn't possibly bite through it. Let alone the enhanced goat steel, even before the enhancement, they couldn't bite through it even if they chewed their teeth to pieces!

However, Hitz was surprised to discover that they could absorb the magic power of the goat!

A single giant horned rat may not absorb much, but what about ten thousand, one hundred thousand, or one million?

The giant rats kept rushing forward, biting off pieces of the colossus's magic!

Normally, even though the colossus itself was not successfully forged, it still possesses certain defensive mechanisms, making it impossible for ordinary monsters to get close so easily.

But who can blame them when the colossus is at a critical juncture?

All defensive measures have come to a standstill, leaving us completely at the mercy of the rats!

Philo was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth!

The most terrifying thing in the world is to give her hope, only to extinguish it with your own hands!

"Alright, stop yelling." Mensa shook his finger helplessly, silencing Philo, and then said, "Isaac is right, this experiment has failed. As for why it failed, unfortunately, you are destined never to know. Don't complain. You are only alive now because you are the eldest princess, which is already very lucky."

After saying that, Mensa looked at Isaac with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Without a doubt, Isaac is a genius!

She's also a research genius, a perfect match for them, the arcanists!

Unfortunately, Isaac was a mad witch, the most insane kind at that, otherwise he really wanted to take on a student. What a pity.

Mensa looked at Isaac, shaking his head with a heavy heart full of regret. On one hand, he hoped Isaac could survive and make the most of his talent, perhaps even becoming a great wizard in the future. On the other hand, because of the mad wizard's crazy nature, he didn't want Isaac to grow up...

Of course, the most regrettable thing is that Isaac has two things stolen from the Outer Gods. Once he is killed, the things inside him will instantly become the anchor point for the Outer Gods to descend, and the Empire will suffer even greater losses!

All mad witches, at their best, die at the hands of the Outer Gods.

Of course, the main reason he wasn't killed was because his surname was Solomon, which had too much influence.

"boom!"

Soon, amidst the silence of the crowd, the magical radiance on the hundred-meter-tall colossus gradually dimmed. After losing its magical enhancement, its single leg could no longer support such a massive body, and it collapsed with a crash!

Chapter 90: The girl gave the most precious gift to freedom!

After a while, once all the giant horned rats had returned to the flesh and blood dimension, Isaac summoned a pumpkin carriage, loaded it with Liuli and Angel, and, under Philo's angry gaze, directly transformed the colossus remains into flesh and blood crystals.

This is a flaw that isn't really a flaw of Goat Steel: once it loses its magic, Goat Steel that has only undergone simple processing can be easily restored to monster flesh and blood by others using magic.

However, this drawback is not usually useful, so it is generally not known to most people.

After collecting the small bag of rubies that had been condensed from the colossus's remains, Isaac looked at the alchemical golem's remains scattered all over the ground and shook his head helplessly. At this moment, he hated himself immensely for not being more ruthless back then and seizing more flesh and blood dimensions!

If the dimensional world were a little bigger, he could have taken all the spoils with him, instead of having to leave some behind like he does now!

"Tsk~" Looking at the golem wreckage scattered all over the ground, Isaac was still a little annoyed. He turned to Angel beside him and said, "Do you have a way to completely destroy these things? The kind where even the materials can't be recycled."

Angel nodded gently, opened the magic book in her hand, and mysterious clock arrays began to appear one by one on the golem ruins, then began to spin rapidly.

Before long, as Philo's face darkened completely, the golem's remains turned to ashes and vanished with the wind!

This caused Isaac, who had only asked casually, to gape in astonishment. Good heavens, is this time magic? How terrifying would it be if it were used on a person!

Seemingly anticipating Isaac's doubts, Angel explained with a smile, "This spell only has such an exaggerated effect on inanimate objects, and the item cannot have a complete magic cycle, otherwise it will be almost ineffective."

Upon hearing this, Isaac immediately understood: the ability to break through defenses was insufficient, and the magic resistance could not be penetrated.

That's normal.

"Lord Isaac, is the matter settled?" Mensa asked with a smile.

"That's all. What are your instructions, senior?" Isaac replied respectfully, bowing his head.

"Give orders, that's not quite right. The magic you just used must have come from another dimension, right?"

"Senior has keen insight!" Isaac didn't deny it, after all, the way it was used was obvious, anyone with a bit of knowledge could see it.

"I'm somewhat interested in dimensions. Would you be interested in cooperating with me on some experiments? Of course, I won't destroy your dimension, and I'll also provide you with some treasures that can help your dimension grow. I can also answer some of your questions along the way. How about it?" Amidst everyone's surprised expressions, Mensa extended an invitation to Isaac.

Isaac was silent for a moment, then cautiously asked, "Can I refuse?"

To be honest, if dimensions weren't non-transferable, he would have given this thing to Mensa directly, and could just get another one himself.

He had absolutely no interest in Mensa's offer. Indeed, the resources and guidance from a legendary archmage could certainly allow him and his dimension to develop rapidly.

but!

Mensa is too strong!

Moreover, unlike the Outer Gods, he is not subject to many restrictions, and he can act without restraint!

Faced with such an important figure, Isaac felt like an ant, as if he could be stepped on at any moment, and had no sense of security whatsoever!

However, it was precisely because of Mensa's immense power that he dared not refuse even easily.

Seeing Isaac's expression, Mensa shook his head with a helpless smile: "Interesting. You're not afraid of stronger Outer Gods, but you're afraid of me?"

“…Because the Outer Gods can only talk, you can’t actually kill me.” Isaac raised his head and said sincerely.

Mensa was somewhat surprised. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "If you are worried about your safety, I can cooperate with you through the Flesh Cult, or we can cooperate after your eldest sister advances. How about that?"

Isaac was somewhat exasperated; why was this never going to end...?

"Sigh~ It seems we're not meant to be." Isaac didn't speak, but his expression said it all. Mensa sighed helplessly and stopped talking, saying instead, "Since that's the case, it's over. Do you need me to see you off?"

Upon hearing this, Angel, who was standing to the side, became a little nervous. She noticed that Mensa had said "you" instead of "you all".

"Then we won't trouble you. We can go back ourselves. They're already waiting for me on the way."

"Is that so? Goodbye then. I hope you can bring me more surprises next time we meet."

"Thank you for your kind words. Well then, Senior Mensa, Senior Hitz, and Your Highness, we shall meet again!"

"Hiss!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Isaac drove the pumpkin carriage away, gradually disappearing from the three people's sight.

“Senior Hitz, Lord Mensa, if Isaac can’t be killed, then can’t Angel be killed either? She’s the Primal Witch! Once she grows up, the consequences will be unimaginable!” Philo said with a solemn expression. She hadn’t expected that even Angel would escape in the end.

“Your Highness, I thought you didn’t know she was the Primal Witch!” Mensa looked at Philo calmly and said, “The Witch Kingdom has already communicated with us about this matter. This is a trial they gave to Angel. If you don’t kill her, then we will not be able to stop her from leaving. On the contrary, if she grows up in the future, she will not target the Empire, but only you personally.”

Mensa sighed, “Your Highness, I hope you remember that His Majesty has granted you many privileges in the hope that you will become a true strongman. So please be serious. I hope that after this, you can become a true mad witch! It would be best if you could become a true mad witch! Otherwise, both Isaac and Angel will be far stronger than you!”

After saying that, Mensa teleported away. Hitz put Philo down, dispersed the idol, and left. The town of Phyllis was in a mess, and he still had many things to deal with.

Soon, only Filo remained standing on the street, facing the night wind, utterly bewildered...

……

"Alright, congratulations, you're free." On the other side, after the pumpkin carriage flew a distance, it reunited with Smith and the others who had left the capital earlier. At this moment, Isaac also said to Angel.

“Yes, I’m free.” Angela lifted the curtains, looked at the scenery receding outside the window, and smiled slightly, feeling incredibly happy.

After admiring the scenery for a while, Angel handed the magic book in her hand to Isaac: "Here, this is a gift for saving me."

"This...can it be given away?" Isaac didn't accept it immediately, but asked curiously.

“You’ve misunderstood. This isn’t the original text. It’s a magic book I created based on the original text. According to the witch, it should be called a magic book. It records three time spells. You can use them if you have this magic book. As for whether you can learn them, I don’t know.” Angel shrugged helplessly.

"Time magic...so precious..."

Chapter 91 Time Reversal Barrier

"Time magic!" Isaac took the spellbook, his eyes lighting up. This was a real treasure!

Especially for them, the wizards!

This brings us to the difference between spellbooks and magic books, a unique classification for witches. The former cannot be used to cast spells, but can be used to learn the spells recorded within, while the latter can be used to cast spells, but cannot be used to learn the spells recorded within.

But for wizards, it's not so complicated. Spellbooks and magic books are the same type; they don't value their spellcasting abilities, they only use them for learning.

The reason is simple: while spellcasting from a magic book is convenient, it is too fixed. It only consumes less energy and is far less free than the freedom that comes from mastering it yourself.

Therefore, in the eyes of wizards, regardless of whether a book can be used to cast spells, as long as it records spells or even related spell knowledge, it can be called a magic book.

So for Isaac, Angel's gift was indeed quite generous!

That's time magic!

In Isaac's previous life in the world of novels, there was a saying that "space is king, time is supreme." Although this world does not have such a fantastical saying, the status is roughly the same.

Any spell that involves directly manipulating space and time is of a very high level!

To master spatial magic, one must be at least a great wizard; otherwise, one can only rely on high-ranking beings or treasures like spellbooks. Time magic is even more extreme.

They represent two extremes. They were introduced to space magic earlier than the latter. Legend has it that formal wizards can master them, while arcane wizards have an even lower skill level, and even mage apprentices can master them!

But they are all just superficial tricks like foreseeing the future and the Recall spell. Especially foreseeing the future, there are spells with the same name from the first to the third tier, but the effects are vastly different!
