Chapter 198: Test

At four o'clock the next morning, Felix opened his eyes in a daze, his head buzzing as if a crucible ladle had been plunged into his brain and stirring it constantly. He rose from the bed and made his way to the washroom with a briskness in his step.

His face in the mirror appeared flushed, as if he had just fished himself out of boiling hot water, and he muttered, "The side effects of the Thinking Room sure come fast."

Last night, in order to have time to deduce the defective rune on the rune ball, he forcibly increased the operating speed of the Thinking Room, and now the side effects showed up at his door.

He had expected this.

He came out of the washroom, glanced out the window at the thick darkness, and gave himself a large cup of potion, and soon the fever went down, but his whole body remained breathless.

Felix lay in bed until ten o'clock, the constant tingling in his brain left him with no appetite at all, and he couldn't even think quietly. He decided to go out for a walk, at least to get a cool breeze.

Before he knew it, he reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and Felix squinted his eyes as he made a choice between the Forbidden Forest and Hagrid's Hut.

"Since we're here, how about ... testing the zooming spell?" He is simply too curious.

Felix only hesitated for two seconds, then slowly walked into the forbidden forest, but he put a trench coat over himself, and lightly tapped his fingers on his chest, and the trench coat pulsed with a crystalline light of magic.

This trench coat was made of basilisk's skin on the inside and fire dragon skin on the outside, which was carefully tanned by Felix, adding many rune circuits and defensive enchantments to make the final product light and fluffy.

The air in the forbidden forest is warm and humid, and he got a little better in spirit as his eyes kept bouncing around.

'A Tebo warthog... a red hat will do.'' Felix's mind wandered in anticipation.

He walked along a steep stone path, all the way down, and he suddenly remembered that he had picked up a large claw of an Acromantula here in the last school year.

He had wanted to use the large claw to make a rune carving knife, but it had dried up, and he failed to capture even a trace of magic. Plus, he was so busy that he left the matter behind.

A rustling sound rang out, and Felix looked up to find himself surrounded by a dozen large spiders of enormous size, and it looked like they were ready to attack.

Acromantula ...

"It's so sweet, it's great that you guys came up to me," Felix said sincerely.

The large spiders across the way kept fiddling with their big claws, making a "click-clack-clack" sound, and he could even hear the hard black fur covering their bodies scraping against the ground.

Felix's ebony wand is casually held in his hand, there is no sign of any powerful spell fired, but a pale blue glow has quietly emerged from his left hand, and he kept injecting magic, which twisted into a spherical vortex in the blink of an eye.

The vortex's edges were faintly visible in the form of magic runes - the spherical vortex is the magical embodiment of a skeletal runic sphere.

A big, elephant-sized Acromantula had jumped into midair.

Felix flatly extended his hand.

The spherical vortex spun violently above his palm, and internally the blue magic swelled up by leaps and bounds, wrapping Felix in it and forming a spherical barrier twenty feet in diameter.

The magic spun around him at high speed, weaving a beautiful web of magic.

The spherical vortex in Felix's hand had turned colourless and transparent, and a terrible suction force gushed out from within it, and the Acromantula in midair got shredded without any resistance.

When it touched the outermost circle of blue light, its speed slowed down and its body continued to shrink, a process that probably lasted less than a second, and then it looked like a small stone thrown into a pool of water, completely disappearing.

Felix came closer to examine carefully, in the colourless transparent vortex, a small spider the size of a green bean scratching its tiny claws and constantly spinning.

The powerful suction in the vortex did not have any effect on Felix, but it is real, and it keeps extending outward.

"Ka-chow!"

A large tree broke in the middle, came whirling towards him, and when it approached the blue magic web three meters around him, it quickly shrank into a toothpick, and together with an Acromantulas lying on it, they plunged into the spherical vortex.

Not only trees and Acromantulas, but also human head-sized rocks also whistled and were pulled over, dirt, dead branches ... with him as the center, all kinds of strange and bizarre things flew towards him in one stream.

Felix thought about it and began to consciously control the magic, the wind swirling around disappeared, the swaying branches slowly quieted down, but the suction brought by the vortex all converged towards the remaining Acromantulas.

They tumble and fly backward in various positions, and are thrown into the vortex in a single stream.

Of the total twelve Acromantulas, not even one escaped.

Felix examined the miniature world in his hand with interest.

He tried to make the rapid rotation of the vortex stop, which fell silent very smoothly, the outer layer of magic power returned to the spherical vortex, softly rotating.

He is now holding a transparent sphere, the interior is like a silky ribbon of blue magic, they stretch freely while floating around lightly.

The prisoners within the spherical vortex - Twelve Acromantulas tumbled helplessly, one of them barely grasping the toothpick-sized old tree, its tiny claws squirming wildly.

Felix summarized the information he had gained so far -

Firstly, although only the shrinking effect of this magic had been tested, the enlarging effect had not been tested yet, but it could be confirmed that it is undoubtedly a zooming spell, not something random, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, the biggest stone in his heart fell down.

Secondly, the effect of the magic is exaggerated; and

''The spherical vortex provides a powerful suction, and the magic coiled inside expands into a web that shrinks everything.''

''The acromantula isn't weak, but it's powerless against it, which means most of the forbidden forest creatures can't fight against this magic.''

Felix stared at the bare empty patch within a ten-foot radius, even the ground shortened up to reveal the wet brown mud. This is still the result of him reacting midway and shifting his target to the acromantula.

"The effect on magical creatures should be very good, and in the future, there is no need to worry about being besieged. As for the wizard ..." he analysed in his mind, his head tingled again, "Hiss~"

Felix paused as he looked around the scene for a while, deciding to wait until he got rid of the side effects of the thinking room before analysing it in depth.

"Next, the most important part-"

He snapped his fingers and Acromantulas inside tossed out of the vortex, its body rapidly expanding under his control, and after a dozen or so seconds, it had returned to its initial size.

The big spider looked up at the horrible wizard who is sizing himself up and muttering something strange under his breath, "Didn't find anything wrong, no deformities, no abscesses, it really works." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ n0vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
