Especially those five deeply polluted artificial angels. These cunning fellows hid among the numerous Blood Sun Converters, creating extraterrestrial noise without any scruples.
Whenever these contaminant byproducts roared together, Philia’s mentor’s casting movements would be interrupted.
If it weren’t for the combat alchemist’s dense gunfire, casting remedial spells before the enemy arrived, they would have been devoured by the contaminant byproducts and Blood Sun Converters long ago.
Noland Lee threw out a Deconstruction Technique to take a look.
Philia’s mentor required 160,000 energy points for deconstruction, likely a Six-Ring Witch.
She had only one Elemental Sphere, clearly not a battle wizard.
One Elemental Sphere means that only one type of elemental magic can be substantially strengthened, while the other elemental magic will not be strengthened. The elemental reactions triggered by a single Elemental Sphere are far less than those of an Elemental Judgement Battlemage with two Elemental Spheres.
This phenomenon was quite strange.
A Five-Ring Battle Wizard had two Elemental Spheres, while a Six-Ring non-battle wizard only had one.
The “Spirit” of a Five-Ring Battle Wizard could be up to 149 points. The “Spirit” of a Six-Ring non-battle wizard might be as high as 179 points.
But why could a non-battle wizard with higher “Spirit” only have one Elemental Sphere?
Noland Lee always felt an indescribable strangeness, very inconsistent with the game settings he had known before crossing over.
But…
It made sense.
This world, after all, is not a game world and is not designed by people with logical rules in mind. All people and things develop freely within given objective factors. What they ultimately become depends not only on their own choices and will but also on the influence of objective factors.
Philia’s mentor didn’t want to have a second Elemental Sphere. Perhaps objective factors limited her from doing so.
What were the objective factors that limited her?
Noland Lee didn’t know. This was a hidden secret within the Elemental Judgement. Denise Green had no way of understanding it either.
“Well…it’s not entirely clueless.”
Noland Lee remembered something.
According to Denise, the Hotams Magic Academy recruited from all wizards, but only those who passed a screening process could enroll.
In the screening ceremony, Hotams would use something called a “Branch Crystal” to determine whether the prospective student was eligible for admission.
Those who were admitted ultimately became battle wizards.
Those who were not admitted essentially could only become non-battle wizards.
This shows that whether one can become a battle wizard is based on a set of systematic rules.
If Noland Lee had the chance to deconstruct the Branch Crystal in the future, he might be able to understand the secrets contained within.
Through Magic Vision, Noland Lee observed the battlefield and weighed the pros and cons of intervening and helping in his thoughts.
He now had more than 250,000 energy points, enough to deal with various situations.
What does it mean to have 250,000 energy points?
It takes 49,500 energy points to level up a skill from Level 1 to Level 100.
Moreover, what does it mean to have over 5,200 points of Soul Strength on the panel?
With “Death Incarnate” activated, he would generate 520 points of death energy per second, equivalent to about 260 “Death Two Finger” shots per second. Any contaminated artificial angel that came would be instantly killed.
Noland Lee even suspected that he had the ability to gather all the monsters in the field and annihilate them.
The surge in Soul Strength and Energy Points gave Noland Lee the confidence to intervene.
Having the confidence to intervene doesn’t mean he should.
It was a matter of weighing gains and losses.
After helping Philia’s mentor, Noland Lee would reveal some extraordinary aspects. He had already prepared explanations for these so-called extraordinary aspects.
Moreover, considering the arrangements for leaving Alchemist Island in the future, Noland Lee saw no great need to continue to keep a low profile.
In a word:
Noland Lee had already arranged everything that would happen after the exposure of some extraordinary features.
It wouldn’t be a problem for him to make a high-profile move.
So, what would a high-profile move do for him?
Noland Lee scanned the enemy in his Magic Vision and came to a conclusion.
According to the universally accepted rules of distributing spoils of war, whoever kills the enemy has the priority right to allocate the spoils.
The enemies surrounding Philia’s mentor totaled at least several hundred. Noland Lee saw no need to miss out on so many soul fragments.
Since everything was ready, it was time to get to work.
After grasping the situation on the battlefield, Noland Lee interrupted his “Mind View” and flew rapidly as a white skull.
Swiftly flying through the air and nearing the Black City, Noland Lee’s figure was caught by Philia’s mentor.
Helpless, the white skull flying at high speed in the air was quite eye-catching. Moreover, he was using the Undead Branch’s “Bone Spirit Flight Technique”, which was an incredibly rare flight spell.
Philia’s mentor instantly recognized the origin of this flight spell, revealing confusion on her face. She seemed to regard Noland Lee as a member of the Death Herald Guild, and wondered when a high-level Death Herald member who had mastered the “Bone Spirit Flight Technique” had entered the city.
Noland Lee did not bother explaining anything to Philia’s mentor.
He had a complete plan in his heart to explain everything that would happen in the future.
Noland Lee descended from the sky, stopping about 20 meters away from the battlefield below.
He drew his magic wand and swung it below, unleashing a swath of half-meter-thick black lightning at the enemies below.
“Boom boom boom boom boom boom…”
After a round of bombings, the enemies surrounding Philia’s mentor and the others were instantly cleared away in a small area.
“Death Two Finger? A high-ranking Death Series combat wizard?!” Philia’s mentor exclaimed in shock:
“I am Mabel, a mentor at the local First Level Magic Research Institute. Who are you, stranger wizard?”
“I am Ray Lee, ma’am. You should know who I am.”
Noland Lee calmly responded:
“Now is not the time to discuss this. Let me clear out the enemies here first.”
