The Bizarre Wizarding World-Chapter 230 - 178 Phantom
Colin opened his eyes and listened carefully.
Crackling… Boom…
The sounds outside continued, almost as loud as the night when Cromi Street witnessed the eradication of the followers… What had happened again?
But the next second, his expression suddenly changed.
Boom!!
A loud explosion suddenly erupted, so loud that even the Meditation Room's barriers seemed deafening!

This undoubtedly meant that the distance was closer or the battle more intense…
Neither of those was good news!
Colin's heart chilled; he didn't hesitate, nor did he afford to!
With a thought, he quickly summoned the Golden Paper!
Pale golden particles converged.
The next second!
As his thoughts began to concentrate, the characters at the bottom of the Golden Paper representing the Limit Breaking Point rapidly pulsated and continually dropped.
Meanwhile, the previously lowered magic began to break limits once again!
[Fireball Skill I↑ (100/100)] ——→ [Fireball Skill II (1/100)!]
[Steel Armor I↑ (100/100) (golden)] + [Hope Force Field I↑ (100/100) (golden)] + [High Temperature Tolerance I↑ (100/100) (golden)] ——→ [Steel Temperature Resistance Field (1/100)!]
...
Moments later, after breaking limits on the main magic, Colin felt somewhat more secure.
After bolstering himself with the Steel Temperature Resistance Field, he grabbed the Foolishness Scepter and stepped out of the Meditation Room.
"You two, head to the basement and hide," he briefly instructed Renee and Demi, then quickly made his way to the rooftop.
With each step he ascended, he felt increasingly the mighty power within him that belonged to an Official Wizard!
Everything seemed unchanged, yet everything seemed transformed.
It was as if the thick mud shell that had enveloped him was washed away in one go; he felt as light as if shedding half his weight, his movement ethereally light, nearly surreal.
His senses, too, seemed as though they had been wiped clean of dust, the darkness of the stairs in front of him posing no obstacle at all.
Inexplicably, an instinct that seemed innate emerged in his mind… he couldn't help but act upon this thought.
The next moment, his spiritual power genuinely burst forth from his body, illuminating the surroundings…
If the spiritual power during his apprenticeship was like rotten wood, then now, as an Official Wizard, his spiritual power was like refined steel, no longer confined within the body, freely moving out as he willed… Sensing the surroundings was merely its most rudimentary use.
Thinking this, Colin quickly reached the rooftop.
The orange-yellow light flickered, illuminating the fierce fire nearby… Unbeknownst to him, it had reached evening already.
The world seemed to display two sunsets at that moment: one dim, barely visible, sinking into the earth.
And the other brighter, located on Lier Saint Street…
To be exact, in a small square courtyard not far to the right of his residence.
The buildings in that courtyard had now almost completely collapsed, the flames licking the broken walls and making crackling noises.
With the aid of the firelight, Colin clearly saw three figures in wizard robes floating midair, warily looking down at the ruined courtyard.
To his surprise, those three floating wizards were all dressed in the garb he was most familiar with—
The standard wizard robes of the Tin Saint School…
Clearly, this indicated that they were Official Wizards of the School.
Colin's eyes flickered as he speculated to himself,
"Most of the residences on Lias Holy Street are properties of the Tin Saint School... Could it be that these wizards had gathered here for some reason and then something unexpected happened?"
Just as he was pondering, the situation took a new turn.
A sacred and bright beam of light, at an incredulous speed, suddenly burst out from a flickering fire below!
It then shot towards the leftmost wizard with a plump figure like a sharp sword!
Unfortunately, the male wizard and his companions were prepared,
The next moment, a pale blue protective shield suddenly appeared around the plump wizard.
The two other wizards beside him simultaneously launched powerful attacks towards the source of the beam!
Hiss.
The pure white beam clashed with the pale blue shield, eroding each other.
The plump wizard let out a light exclamation... This attack seemed much lighter than he had anticipated, with the pale blue shield merely fluctuating slightly before it held up against the beam.
The white beam, now diminished under the defense of the pale blue shield, became thinner and thinner, close to extinction.
Boom!!
At this moment, the attacks from the other two wizards struck the fire.
Deliberately targeting, the wizardry carrying a chilling wind mixed with frost began to spread in all directions, gradually extinguishing the burning flames below.
With the disappearance of the firelight, the previously obscured view below gradually cleared.
Seeing this, the plump wizard waved his hand, timely casting a Light Brightness Skill to illuminate the area below.
But the next second, his heartbeat suddenly missed a beat, and he exclaimed with hair-raising awe,
"No good!!"
He then saw a golden dot appearing in the almost imperceptible white beam in front of him.
That golden point, from the moment it appeared, began to expand rapidly like malignant proliferating cells, ballooning up to the size of a basketball in the blink of an eye!!
At this moment, the two other wizards beside him finally reacted, their expressions drastically changing, hurriedly fortifying themselves with defensive witchcraft!
Meanwhile, on the top floor of Colin's residence,
There was no longer anyone there.
In fact, after going up to the top floor to view the situation clearly, Colin had decisively gone downstairs, preparing to take sisters Renee and Demi to a distant place for refuge.
In this world, one of the things you must not do is spectate.
Why wait, if not to quickly distance oneself from the center of danger while those wizards were confronting each other?
You see, although he had become an Official Wizard, the witchcraft he knew were still of Zeroth Rank.
Even now, with the rank enhancement of an Official Wizard, those Zeroth Rank spells had undergone qualitative changes.
For example, Steel Temperature Resistance Field and other Limit Breaking fused witchcraft, when used, already had the level of normal First Level Lower Magic.
Perhaps even, with the aid of the Foolishness Scepter, they might reach the level of Middle First Rank Wizardry.
But now, he knew nothing.
He had no reason to stay and put himself in danger.
Boom!!!
The fierce shockwave came, like a tsunami's surge, causing the iron staircase downstairs to shake, and the black iron chandelier in the hall to sway and fall, crashing to the ground with a thud.
'This might is perhaps comparable to the Sun Fireball once cast by Wizard Lap...'
Colin's expression changed slightly, but his robust physical condition allowed him to continue swiftly towards the door, unaffected.
Renee, holding Demi's hand, followed close behind him.
