Chapter 236: Chapter 223 Get away from me, you monster! (Please subscribe)
Damn it, what kind of magic is this?
Abel had never before encountered magic that affected vision, and seeing that his strongest magic was utterly ineffective, he immediately panicked. He cast a [Multiple Flame Burst Skill] in response, but the target wasn’t Lynn, it was the alleyways on either side.
A violent explosion followed, and the already fragile earthen walls were instantly demolished, burying the road. Then, under the cover of dust, Abel fled without looking back.
Lynn’s expression remained unchanged, as the index finger of his right hand lightly trembled, and a strange circle of magic power rippled outwards.
The sprinting Abel reached the end of the alleyway, hope of life just ahead!
Just as Abel was about to step out of the alleyway, his heart suddenly and violently palpitated, and, maintaining his forward momentum, he flipped over and fell to the ground, rolling awkwardly several times.
Fear painted Abel’s face. The earlier magical illusion and the violent throbbing of his heart were magics previously unseen by him, so bizarre that they were unimaginable. Could it be that the person attacking him was a believer of an Evil God?
Before Abel could clear his mind, a dark red figure had already pounced on him—a lion’s head with a pair of crimson eyes, and wounds that had pierced its body were now healed. However, the remaining pain drove it to furiously swing its claws, repeatedly smashing down onto Abel’s magical defenses.
“Get off me, you monster… get off!” Seeing the sharp claws, larger than his head, only a centimeter from himself, Abel screamed in utter terror, madly yelling. At the same time, dense electrical arcs emerged around him, swiftly spreading to the half-lion, half-human creature on top of him.
This was the second-tier magic—[Lightning Barrier].
However, the half-lion, half-human creature stubbornly endured the agony and numbing effect of the electric shock, its body glowing with a crimson firelight, as it used its massive fists to break through the protective barrier.
“Owen, hold back a bit, don’t kill the guy…”
In the distance, a voice suddenly carried over. The creature about to strike Abel one last time paused immediately, and then retracted its claws, knocking Abel unconscious with a punch.
Approaching, Lynn saw Abel who had fainted, the wizard’s face still frozen in abject terror, evidently scared out of his wits.
The half-lion, half-human creature’s body began to change shape rapidly, and within a few seconds, a boy about fifteen or sixteen years old appeared in the alley, his complexion pale, hair standing on end from the electricity, hands and feet trembling, but still he spoke with a quivering voice.
“Master Lynn…”
“How are you feeling? Is your body all right?” Lynn asked with concern. To endure a direct electrical shock, even with a transformed body’s better constitution, was unavoidably harmful.
“I’m all right, just… a bit numb…” The boy couldn’t help but shiver, his muscles sore and every hair on his body standing on end. It was his first time experiencing the sensation of being struck by lightning.
“Next time, try not to be so reckless,” Lynn said with a helpless shake of his head, then asked again. “What about the [Mage Shield] and [Flame Burst Skill] I taught you to learn?”
“Those two spells are too complicated…” The teenager admitted somewhat sheepishly.
“No matter how complex, you have to learn them. You need to know a few spells; otherwise, when you face more powerful wizards and priests, relying solely on magic transformation will only leave you getting beaten, which is too much of a disadvantage,” Lynn reminded him.
The youth in front of him, named Owen, was none other than Experiment Subject No. 22 whom he had seen several months ago in Radak’s laboratory, the lucky one who had successively fused with two magical beast bloodlines!
Since Radak’s manor was located on the outer edge of the southern district, it hadn’t been engulfed by the soul-devouring Formation that had erupted.
After the tragedy in the southern district, all these magical experiment subjects were all rescued by the search and rescue teams, and Owen was one of them. After more than a month of treatment, he had basically recovered.
These modified wielders of magic power weren’t weak, strong enough to contend with some formal Wizards; Lynn naturally had no intention of neglecting them. Those with unstable psyches underwent psychological treatment with spiritual magic, while those who were stable were incorporated into the newly established security force, leaving behind their pasts and gaining legitimate employment.
Owen, the most powerful among them, had been assigned by Lynn to protect Laud and others, as the former’s young age served as good cover. Not many could imagine that a boy of fifteen or sixteen could unleash such terrifying power.
The only flaw was that these magic power wielders, despite their vast magic power, seemed to have difficulty in condensing spell positions, and they also weren’t highly resistant to psychic spells.
After calming the young boy down, Lynn turned his attention to Laud, who had just crawled out from under an earthen wall.
“Lord Lynn, this operation was my oversight, nearly leading to serious consequences. Please, punish me as you see fit,” Laud said, wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, looking quite annoyed.
Previously, he had thought that with Owen’s help, combined with his own covert shots from the dark, dealing with a tail trailing him was more than manageable without causing too much of a stir. He hadn’t expected the one following him to be a not-so-low-level Wizard.
Had it not been for Lynn’s timely arrival, they would probably have been in danger.
“Take him away! We’ll talk in a safe place…” Lynn said noncommittally, and after a “Flame Touch” cleared away the traces left by the battle, he disappeared from in front of them.
“Lord Lynn?” Laud looked around and called out, but no one answered.
It really was bizarre; shouldn’t that Lord still be in Yeah Yeah Theatricals?
Laud muttered to himself, his heart filled with an increased sense of awe.
Meanwhile, the youth beside him promptly picked up Abel, urging Laud to make a run for it together.
Just one minute after the two had left, a group of priests dressed in white robes, bearing sacred insignias on their chests, arrived at the scene.
“There are traces of flame magic on the ground… It must be a formal Wizard capable of such powerful destruction,” the Archbishop leading them said, glancing at the collapsed earthen wall and the pitch-black ground. “We’re a step too late; it seems that the other party has already fled.”

“I hope no innocents have been hurt because of this.” “These damned believers of the Evil God…”
The priests, whether feeling pity or anger, cursed the accursed Wizards who, like rats, always hid in nooks and crannies they could not find, occasionally popping out to cause trouble.
“Report this incident to Lord Losak,” the leading Archbishop said with concern. “Recently, these Wizards’ activities seem to be happening more frequently.”
